have been using glasses for more
than 20 years, and found them 50
much trouble that j bought DR..

a little more than four years ago.
The second day after using the in
strument could see TO read very
well without speetacles, but the con-
vexity Of the eye-ball was soon lost
again, and the next day / could not
read word. ] then began to press
up my eyes together gently with the
finger, and soon could see to read
again. After trying this for nearly
a year, / concluded the instrument
was Of no service and threw it aside,
but still continued to press my eye
balls together with the fingers every
day and several times day. This
soon became habit, which has been
regularly followed ever since. My
eye-sight has returned perfectly. and
today | can read the Howkeye right
along without glasses, though the
weather is quite cloudy. i can read
very well. too, by the lamp at night
without glasses.
One of my neighbors, a carpenter,
who has used spectacles for two years,
has dispensed with them entirely by
pursuing this practice. began to
use spectacles at 30 years of age, and
used them nearly 20 years, and dc

To Offset this piece OF Wholesale
impotence, the Secretary Of the
Treasury holds back this freight
money, which though not half
enough in amount, will help restrain
these lively railroad kings, till Con-
gress can enact q law covering the
difficulty. Judge Laurence has in
fact already introduced bill ma
king the United States lien on the
Pacific road, and on all others that
shall be aided by government in the
future, first mortgage on their
lands; and the interest paid by gov
eminent on its own loan to the
railroad, also first mortgage; and
finally providing that whenever the
railroad shall sell any land, the pro-
ceeds shall be applied to reimburse
the United States for its loan; and
lastly, that the government shalt pay
no freight bill or other debt of the
railroad; but shall apply it on ac-
count. This bill will we think fetch
up the companies with a short turn,
and will he the defense to the gov
eminent against men who would
suck its life blood If they could. The
financial Inversion that win occur
when the company's private loans
are made a second mortgage, and the
government loan first mortgage,
may cause CONSERVATION among the
stockholders OF the road; but 1t should
teach them q valuable lessOn-to

Cneof the moet gratifying acts that

Department, il the Withholding from

tw0 millions Of dollars, which the
government owes for transportation
of freight. Secretary Boutwell, in
keeping back this money deserves
the COMMUNICATION II every newspa-
paper in the land. The facts, simply
stated, are these. When the Pacific
railroad was built Congress gave it
twenty miles OF land ON both sides,
and in order 10 help it raise money
for immediate use, loaned il money
on mortgage. The act Of Congress
provided that this should be first
mortgage. But il has been made a

having prior lien on the lands Civ

Moreover. In stead Of the railroad
paying 10 government interest for
the use Of the loan, the United States
have actually paid interest on it TO
I the railroad. The aInountthus paid,
up to December lst, 1870, is over six
millions.
For the whole sum loaned the Uni
ted States has to-day no security upon
the lands Of the road, except a second
mortgage: while, as for the interest,

A MONEY DIGNITY Considering the
immense number Of brainless fools with
money in bank who dot the earth, the pro-
portion assuming money dignity is com:
paratively small. There are thousand
clods whom chance or circumstance has
made the possessor of thousands, who are
aware that money is not brains, to one sou-
sequential dolt who fancies $4,000 makes
him the equal of a man. But when ~ do
find one of these money.dignity fellows, he
is sure to be all our fancy painted him,
and more too. He is very consequential,
important, and dreadfa!ly distended with
superabundance of imaginary rsspsctas
bility. A diagnosis of his disphragu
would foot up in the single sentence, dying
of responsibility. Shoddy dignity is bad
enough, ludicrously awkward aud refresh
ingly uncouth, but there is certain
amount of respect due to bulk. even though
it be nothing but gigantic fungus. Not
