A Hint.

1t is reported by the news.
papers that a sermon was re.
Gently preached in Chicago
against divorces and in favor
Of the married state. We are
not told that, as once happen
ed under q discourse of Socra-
tes, all the bachelors resolved
at once to get married, and the
husbands all galloped home to
their wives at the close of the
sermon. But we are informed
that the minister stood up
shamelessly in the pulpit and
spoke it out like a wanton; that
he owned that he had a father
and q mother who were law
fully married and had never
been divorced; and that he
went even further and confess,
ed he was himself a married
man and did not blush about
it.

Paying for Advertise0ae1s %.

The pulisher of a daily parcr
sued the Standard Life Ins'.
rance Company, in theSuprer Q
Court of New York City, a few
days ago, before Judge Fithian,
for a bill Of $773 on account of
advertising. The Company
resisted payment on the ground
that they had authorized but
one insertion. There was no
proof, however, Of this. There
was no order to that effect OIL
the bill, and the Company did
not attempt to deny that they
saw the advertisement contin-
uing in the paper and failed to
countermand it. When an ad-
vertisement is received in a
publication Office without the
number of insertions marked
uponit, the publisher can know
nothing of the wish of the adj
vertiser respecting the number
Of insertions desired, and as he
can do nothing until advised
by him whose business it is to
attend to the matter, he can
charge for every insertion CIV
en- the advertisement until or.
dered out.

I11lDeOcNDlent,

We expect to see, says Pom
eroy's Democrat, the high and
moral Congress, that immacu-
late body of pure statesmen
who are shocked at the slight
est evidence of dishonesty or
trickery, taking measures to
inpeach the President, so soon
as it shall have convened. Ger
tainly, they, in all their grand
and distinguished purity, can
not endure, even in the same
city where they make our hon
est laws, to have a President
who had mixed himself up with
gold speculations, and indulged
in the luxury Of specializing
upon his high position. Of
course the party of all decency
and all morality does not want
such a chief magistrate, and of
course they will impeach him.
If they wait a little while, An
drew johnson may be there to
assist in the amusement.

Our Trade With The E0Sl

Our Trade With The East.
Twenty eight thousand
ounces of japanese silver were
received at the San Francisco
Mint for recoinage in October.
Here is q substantial result OF
the trade with the East, which,
though small, is an indication
in its way. Apparently our
trade with our Oriental neigh.
Dor is already so great that the
goods we send them are so
much in excess Of the goods
they send US that there is a bal
ance to be made up in COIN
Yet the demand in all parts of
this country for the products
of the East is always very great.
Hitherto the exchanges for
this demand have been made
through England, and we have
lost much Of the benefit of
trade by the number Of trans
fers involved, paying cores
pondingly greater prices for
the articles we sold. But the
Pacific Railroad and our Pacific
steamers promise to change all
that, and already shows us in
this straw from the japanese
Mint what may be done i'll our
direct trade with the East. As
the full effect of all our recent
great advances toward reader
communication with the East
as well as the effects Of our lib
eral policy toward Eastern ma
tions, comes to be felt we shall
supply ourselves, if not the
world, with Oriental products
and supply Oriental nations
with the varied manu-
factures thrt are the outgrowtE
of Western civilization. The
great future of our commerce
is in that direction, and the
time will csme when we may
leave the Atlantic to Others.

historical facts and data which
will be of great value to the

on the Woman Question:
A large number of spirited
engravings illustrate women
engaged in various branches
of industry-educat ton, public
and private life, some Of which
are novel, showing women in

A Second Andrew Johnson.

The radicals having got rid OF ANDY,
were beginning to felicitate themselves
that they were at last to have their own
way for the future, with no one to cast
frcbrands into their camp; but in this
they have been sadly disappointed, for on
the oath ult. Senator SpRAGUE, of Rhode
Island, heretofore considered sound on
every robbery case, because of his vast
manufacturing interests, got up in the
senate and made the radical wing of the
republican party feel as unhappy and cast
down as if the vcritahle ANDY himself had
sent them message detailing their iniqui-
ties and acknowledgements of the affairs Of
the country. The debate was on the re,
peal Of the tenure of office ILL, and the
honorable gentleman, after telling some
wholesome truths about the lass being
made and framed almost exclusively by
! lawyers and made subversive to their in
terests as class, went on to say:
Gle denied that congress had restored
| harmony or prosperity 10 the country, and
asserted that the people in the south are
rather in state Of chronic revolution, and
that there was no justice for the poor man
or protection for the rights and liberties of
the citizens in this boosted land of f'ee>
dom. Immigration had fallen off, the in>
dustry and agriculture of the country were
50 Frustrated at the west that immigrants
cannot find renuneratlve employment, for
they cannot sell their products for enough
to supply themselves with the necessarles
OF life The reason is that legislation and
administration We're 50 shaped as to encour
age capital to speculate upon every INDUS
trial occupation in the country 1t this
course was to continue in less than five
years there would be a ciamor Tor a tariff
to keep out foreign cotton; but great as
was the acknowledgement of our affairs III
every department, the greater abuses were
in our financial policy. That policy was
directed and controlled by the bankers.
They, no doubt, gave as good advice as
they could, but experience had always
shown that dealers in money knew little
or nothing about the relations OF money to
other occupations and interests. The bear
ing of all this was Tat if the Legislators of
the country had done their own work SO
badly, bow could they dare to assume the
pOwers and duties Of the Executive also.
The social condition Of the countries was
quite as bad as its financial condition
There was less virtue and mora lily in Am
erican society than in any other civilized
society on the face Of the earth. The pre-
yallng decentralization was frishtful.
What mother could send her son out into
the world with any confidence that he
would be able to resist the temptations that
would surround him. The country was on
the brink of precipice, and, unless the
people could IL reused from their apathy,
all was lost
These truths are none the less welcome
that they come from an unexpected qusr~
ter, and the people of all parties would do
sell to pay attention to them and apply
tie remedy.
