OLIvER WBITE We, last week,
mentioned the name of B. s. Par
ker, Esq., as q suitable candidate
for Librarian, as being every way
qualified for its duties. We were
then not aware that our friend
Oliver WHITE, Of this city, was
looking for that position, 0: We
should have drawn straws as to
which should be preferred by US
for the place. We can only say
now, that, il the Legislature elects
either Of them, 1t will select a faith.
ful, honest, capable Librarian.
We freely endorse the following
from the Telegram"
I'VE understand that Oliver
White, of this city, is q candidate
for the Office Of State Librarian.
His fitness for the position Is GER
tainly equal to that of any candi-
date In the field. Mr.. White is q
graduate Of Amherst College, and
. thorough book man in every re-
spect, having been engaged in the
book business for number of
years. His habits and character
are eminently suited to the posi-
ton Of Librarian, and he will have
no trouble in securing the best men
In this county as his endorsers for
shat position"

MASKS AND FAcEs.- Ladies' VIII

Masks AND FACES Ladies who
mask their faces and necks with
enamels endsnger their health to
no purpose. The plaster work
deceives nobody. There is but
o1e article known which will re-
store blemished complexion or
create external brilliancy and
bloom where they have never here
tofore existed, and that article is
HAGAN's MAGNOLIA BALM. It per-
forms this toilet miracle by in
fusing vitality into the ska. The
floral and hei bal juices OF which
it is composed gently stimulate
the circulation in the minute blood
vessels. and brace the network OF
nerves through which they pass.
Thus quickened and strengthened
the external covering soon acquires
q fresh and hcslthful hue. and
every trace OF sallowness disap-
pears. The palest checks derive
from the identifying baptism of
this delightful cosmetic warmer
hue, and the arms, hands and neck,
q blonde luster which the charla-
tans. profess to make ladies "beau-
tiful forever" with their poisonous
cement, can never hope to initiate.

publican party during the cam
paign, is about to receive a sub

the liberal remuneration given
him by his employers, it is said
that an effort is being made by
his admirers throughout the
country to confer upon him a

as to be in a manner worthy. of
the service rendered. Mast, it
need hardly be said, is net poor,
in the common acceptance of
the term, and yet he would un-

and pride, the tender Of just
debt which a grateful country
owes him in return for the
genius which has so materially
aided in the successful conduct

TIE consolidation of inteanal-
revenue districts and the reduction
of the force of assessors and col
lectors directed by the tariff tax
bill Of last session, is not likely to
be effected by January first, the
time named in the act The plan
is now maturing in the internal
revenue Office by which the system
Of collecti ng the revenue will be
essentially changed and it is be-
lieved both economy and efficiency
more fully secured than by merely
diminishing the present force en-
ployed. 1t is proposed to dist
pense entirely with assessors and
substitute therefor stamps, the sale
OF which would be entrusted to col
lectors and ultimately to small
number Of officers specially ap-
pointed for this duty. The pres
cnt force of supervisors and gau-
gers would secure an homes
execution of the law, and the in
ternal revenue would be collected
from the sale Of stamps. Commits
eioner Douglass strongly favors
the system thus generally outlined.
and it will be early brought to the
attention of Congress, with the
expectation that an act may be
passed which will make o more ef
fective and permanen reduction of
expenses than that authorized by
the recent law. The saving in
dispensing with assessors alone
would be over six million dollars
annually.

A movement is on foot in California which.
should it be pushed to q successful conclu-
sion, will not only remove the obstacles which
have hitherto prevented the introduction Of
greenbacks into the Pacific States as . gener.
al circulating medium, but will also 60 far to-
wards restoring the national currency to par
valne in coin. The proposition looks to the
tional Gold Bank law as will authorize the es-
adjustment of banks with five millions o.
capital, the effect of which would be to retire
from circulation and put upon the market a.
cash gold some sixty millions out of the
eighty millions of gold now employed in the
business of the Pacific States. Such step
would more than double the present supply OF
cash gold in the market, and to that degree
aid in bringing about solution of the vexed
problem Of the currency. The most noticea-
bic feature of the movement 10 that the prop
osition is said to emanate from the Bank Of
California, gigantic monetary institution
which has heretofore controlled the money
market of the entire region, and uniformly OK.
erted its power for the exclusion OF the IA
tional currency.
As step toward the resumption Of specie
payments in the shortest possible time, it il
stated that proposition is being entertained
by the Treasury Department for remodeline
the National Banking law, providing for the
calling in Of all national bank notes, and the
issue in their stead of legal tenders, while in
