debt, during the month just passed, Of
fourteen million dollars. Mr. Boutwell,
is making a great record for himself

BY vote which is complimentary
to the sense Of justice of the Senator's,
tho resolution of the House placing
women clerks on equality with male,
as regards salaries, was passed. That
Tor tho same work dono q woman
should receive the same wages as
man is so simple proposition that 1t
would seem hard to find two sides to
it yet the lawyers of Congress found
it question which required months of
argument. We rejoice that at last
Justice has been done, even if not
gracefully or graciously.
CHEMISTRY is furnishing us new
agents for fuel, force, food, aud many
other important aids over those we once
possessed. Ports from which commerce
was driven during the hot months BY
their terrible fevers are visited oil the
year with impunity now. Many local
tiles in the South aud West kept
tenantless by their dcleterious miasmas
are now filing up with population
under the protection of Ayre's Ague
Cure. Their affecting lhilIs aud Fever
are SO eflcctually cured by this remedy
that the disase no longer turns emigra-
ton aside or destroys the settler it he
ventures upon its infected district..-
