We live in more rational and conscientious era.
The importance Of supporting Nature in its conflict
with disease is now understood. Complaints in
themselves weakening ore no longer aggravated
BY artificial depletion. They are met with TONES
that rally the vital powers and enable them to de-
feat the enemy. Chief among these allies Of Na'

The Washington Correspond.
ent Of the New York World says
there lie no concord among the
Republicans in Congress upon
financial topics, and divisions are
certain TO arise among them as
soon as any really important
question Of this kind comes up.
In the Senate Committee of Fl
nance nothing has been agreed
upon in ~FSiersacs to any matter
Of Importance. Mr.. .COrbett'S
scheme Is not viewed with favor,
and other schemes Of finance fare
justly as badly. The only thing
which the committee have yet
agreed upon is q measure looking
to . common standard Of value
for France, England, and the
United States, by which the dol
lar and Ave-franc piece shall be
each changed, SO IS to be equal
in value, and both he convertible
into the English pound sterling.
This measure will probably be f-
vorably reported, and will doubt
less be, If passed, q great conve-
nionce to commerce; but nobody
prctonds that It will strengthen
the public credit or reduce the
burdens on the poor. The com
parisOn Of views only serves to
elicit the sheer inability of the
Republicans to pass any financial
measure of relief. At the same
time, every ingenuity will be en-
plOyed to evade the demand Of
the Southern Senators for addi-
tional currency.

Police, on yesterday, the sum Of
$3.50 was Ordered 10 be paid out

mended by our people and 10 81
evidence Of their being alive to the
interest Of the county. 1t will be
remembered that at q late meeting

From the lips of woman every in-
FAINT hears the first accentof affection
and receives the first lessons Of In
dustFy in tenderness and love.
For the appreciation Of woman the
grown up youth will undertake
the bOldest enterprise and brave
every difficulty of sturdy danger,
and even death itself. To the hap
piness of woman the man Of ma
turer years will devote the best
energies Of his mind and body /; and
from the soothing and affectionate
regards Of woman, the man who
has become venerable in years de-
rives his chief consolation in life's
decline. Who. then, shall cay that
the one-half of the human race, and
they confessedly the most Virtuous
and the most amiable, may not be
entrusted with an intelligence, and
an influence equal to our Own2 to
them when sorrow tfflicts US, we
consign half our sufFerings, and
they cheerfully relieve US, by light
ening them. When Joy delights,
we give the half Of our pleasures
and they readily consent to share
them. They lessen, by their SYM
patty, the pangs Of all our priva-
tons, and they increase by their
participation, the ecstacy Of our
delights. They deserve, therefore,
the full enjoyment Of every priv
ilege that 1t is in our power to con-
fer on them.
