Sinking Slowly.

Diseases that progress rapidly to q crisis are
not the only ones to be dreaded. Canker or
dry rot does net blast a tree as suddenly as q
stroke of lightning, but unless arrested it de-
stroys il as certainly and in like manner
chronic debility, although 1t does not kill with
the swiftnsss of yellow fever, is as sure to sap
the springs Of life eventually as any acute dis
ease, if net checked by invigorating medication
There is something inexpressibly toaching in
the spectacle OF premature decay. Languor,
pallor, emaciation, depression of spirits and a
dstaste for exertion. are its ordinary symptoms,
and they should be promptly met by tonic treat
ment. The best invigorant and exhilarant that
can be administered in a case of this kind is
Hostetter's Stomach Btters. The stimulating
priciple of the preparation rOuses the dormant
energies of the system, and the strengthening
and regulating properties give permanent and
healthtul impulse to the vital forces thus brought
into play. Tho failing appetite is re awakened,
tho process of digestion ard assimilation are
QuCkened, the quality OF the blood IS improved,
the seCrGtOn5 become more natural, and every
organ that contributes to the nourishment of
the body undergoes sanitary change. by these
means the repair of the physical structure is
effected and its health and yigor restored. In
ne class of diseases has the Deuiticent operation
of the Bitters been more marked and striking
than In those characterized by general debility
aud nervous pTostratiOn. Ladies affected with
theee ailments find In this most wholesome Of
all tonics and correc.ives the safest and snrest
means o. relief. 1t is strong TO restore and
powerless TO injure Such is the uniform testi.
mony of clouds Of witnesses"

Deep or shallow.

In reply to question from a CORE
spendent, as to the comparative merits
of deep and shallow ploughing, the edi
tor Of Hearth and Home says.
"That there are some soils that will
yield fair crops by being stirred to the
depth of three inches, is fact; but the
teaching that shallow ploughing is al
ways, or even generally the best, is
wrong and most pernicious.
We believe that, as a rule, the deeper
the soil is stirred, exposing rs it will
more of it to the action of the elements,
the more plant-food will be formed. All
this does not necessitate putting the
enriching material six or ten inches
under ground, where the roots of plants
feeding near the surface cannot find it,
but it means letting the air in and Civ
ing to the earth larger capacity to
gather and hold what the air always
carries.
When the ground is sandy and loose,
subsoilipg or deep tillage is in no wise
necessary. The earth admits the air
without additional breaking up, and as
applications of manure on such soils
have q decided tendency downward, it
might possibly be an Injury to make the
soil looser than it naturally ISL ''
But when the ground is heavy and
wet, when water in q sense stsgnates
within SIX inches of the suIface, subsoil-
ing is invaluable, aud deep tillsge, if
what virgin earth is brought to the sur.
face is properly enriched, is the best in
deed, the only rational way Of treating
such land.
ar The truth Of both of these positions
we have demonstrated by actual exper.
iment. Sandy soil, sowed to rye we
plough four inches and find our greatest
return. Heavy black loan, WITH mix
ture Of loan and clay underneath, we
subsoil, put the plough little deeper
each time the field is planted, and the
crop by the treatment has increased at
least thirty per cent.

A New yarie,y OF Tomn,oe..

Three years ago planted in the same
hill, two tomatoes, one Smooth Red land
one Ridged Yellow. When the fruit
came to perfection and ripened, i noticed
that some Of the yellow tomatoes were
streaked with red, and some of the red
ones streaked with yellow. These /
saved the seed from and planted the
next spring by themselves, and the re-
suit was beautiful, golden STRIPED
tomato. different from any have ever
seen. They were of medium size, slight.
ly rldged ard rather fat sharped. The
vines are rather dwarf, and have q dis.
tinct and peculiar foliage. They ripen
very early, bear abHndantly, and keep
o longer time after being gathered than
any other variety kuownOf.
Last year raised o large quantity,
from which ! saved about half pint OF
seed. / sent q few seed to Hovey g.

We are so seldom called upon to approve
anything done or proposed by the Common
Council that we can the more heartily COM
mend resolution passed yesterday requiring
the Harlem Railroad Company to cause gates
similar to those used in like situations in jersey
City to be placed on both sides of Fourth-ave.,
between and including Northumberland
twenty fourth and Onehundrcd and thirtieth-
SITS This is the most densely populated por-
ton of Harlem, where life is daily endangered
by the passing trains; and but for the fact that
corporations have no souls, the Company would
not have waited to be compelled to erect these
safeguards. AS they have delayed, however, we
hope the resolution Of the Council Will be rig
idly enforced.

"opposition of those banks was to cover up a
Gigantic scheme for pundering the pubic
Let us scan these assertions in the light OF
common sense The existing National Banks
have now a practical monopoly Of the lucra-
tive privilege of issuing notes receivable NJ tne
Treasury and circulating as currency ms
bill destroys that monopoly by opening that
business to any person or company VINO can
raise $4,000. The Bank notes are now VIZ
tually irredeemable-tha is a Bank is seldom
reauired TO redeem even fraction OF Its issues
-but. let the Greenbacks be funded, as me
Herald says they will be, and every note
must be redeemed on demand in coin. Is 1t
credible that this is the way the Banks would
set about "plundering the public y ..
The World more plausbly objects that y
the Debt is funded under this bill, and y the
Grcenbacks are all funded, the annual burden
of our interest will not be materially reduced
in other words, that (since part OF our DeDt
will still draw six per cent INTEREST," we shail
nav as much interest annually on Twenty-iour
Hundred Millions of bonds as we now pay on
Two Thousand Millions. Suppose this adj
mitted. is it nothing to have indicated our
good faith by redeemng the Greenbacks7 Is
it nothing to have emerged from the slough
of Suspension' Say, World!
But in fact The Worlds premises are unsound'
To make the Greenbacks equal to coin is one
thing; to have them all presented for payment
is quite another. The Gold Certificates are,
and ever have been, redeemable ut pleasure IN
coin: wherefore very few of them are pre-
scented for redemption. Knowing that he has
only to step to the Sub-Treasury and have the
Gold counted out to him, the holder rarely or
never thinks of doing anything of the sort.
Why would it be otherwise with the Green
backs7 We believe it would not be-that the
People like them, and will largely prefer them
as currency to any other paper. In fact, we
believe conyertibility to be the one thing need
full to give them wide circulation in the
Mining States and Territories, where Gold
attracts notice and invites robbery; whereas
one may carry 100000 in paper without being
known TO have 800. We know, from our own
receipts, that Grecnbacks are to-day favortes
even in Arkansas and Texas; were they re-
dccmablc in com at our ub-Treasury, they
would be worth more than coin at either Nir-
ginia City, at Salt Lake, Helena, or White
lH'' ~" We I"oV '""'' H"'i"H 'i''" ~
equal in value to coin, the Government will con-
tinuc to pay them out as well as redeem them,
and thus keep up their circulation. Then, with
Free Banking on an ample deposit of Govern
mcnt Bonds. we shall have as much currency
as we now have, with the important difference
that part of it consists of coin and the rest Ii
equal in value thereto. Wherefore o House
OF Representatives put through the Funding
bill a. it stands and at once!
