THE following important changes
in the regulations governing the re-
demption of defaced and mutilated
currency of the United States went
into effect Monday, 1st instant: De-
faced and mutilated United States
notes and fractional currency instead
of being redecmable as now by the
Treasurer of the United States, sub
ject to u discount for mutilation, are
now redeemSble at their full value
in new notes or currency by the
Treasury and the several Assistant
Treasurers and designated deposit
taries of the United States and all
national bank dePOsitaries, and viii
be received at their full face value.
by all officers of the Treasuery De-
partment in payment of currency
due to the United States, provided,
that three-fifths of the original pro-
portion of such notes are presented
in one piece. Fragments less than
five-eights will be redeemable only
by the Treasurer of the United
States. If more than one-half and
less than fiVe-eights IS presented,
half a note will be redeemed only
upon affidavit that the missing por-
tion has been totally destroyed
Under the new rules any person,
firm, bank, corporation or public Of
ficer will be permitted to forward
five dollars and upward in fraction
al currency, and fifty dollars and
upward in legal tender notes for re-
demption to the Treasurer, by ex-
press, at the expense of the Depart
ment under the government con-
tract with Adams Express Com
pany. Heretofore nothing less than
five hundred dollars was entitled TO
transportation at government ex-
pcnse. A circular embodying these
changes is now being prepared in
the Treasury office. The officers of
the Treasury are determined to re-
move all cause for complaint con-
cerning the condition of the United
States currency, and to that end
have concluded to extend to all the
most liberal facilities forits redemp-
ton. 1t is expected at the Depart
ment that the new rules will result
in a speedy and marked improve
ment of the currency.-AU0ldRche.

woman in sickness.

In no situation, and under no cir
cumstanccs, does the female eEarac-
ter appear to such advantage as
when watching by the bedside of
sickness. The chamber of disease
may indeed be said to be wOman's
home. We there behold her loyli-
est, most attractive point of view
firm, without being harsh; tender,
yet not weak; active, yet quiet, gen
tie, patient, uncomplaining vigilant.
Every sympathetic feeling that 80
peculiarly graces the feminine char
acter is there called forth; while the
native strength of mind which has
hitherto slumbeTed in inactivity is
aroused TO its full energy. With
noiseless step she moves about the
chamber Of the invalid; her listen
ing ear ever ready to catch the
slightest murmur, her quick, kind
glance ever ready 10 interpret the
muttered wish, and supply the half
formed want She smoOthes with
careful hand the uneasy pillow that
supports the aching head, or with
cool hand smooths the fevered brow,
or prOfIers to the glazed and psrch-
ing lip the grateful draught, happy
if she meets one kind glance in pay
meRt for her labor of love.
Here, too, is the low whispered
voice, which breathes a life and
hope, of health in store for happy
days to come; or tells Of better and
Of heavenly rest, where neither, ,sorr
row nor disease can come; where
the dark power of death shall no
more have dominion over the frail,
suffering, perishing clay. Through
the dim, silent watches of the night,
when all around are hushed in sleep,
il is hers to keep long vigils, and to
hold communion with her God, and
silently lift her heart in fervent
prayer for the prolongatiOn Of life
for which she would cheertullY sac
rifice her own. And even when ex-
hausted nature sinks TO brief repose
forgetfulness is denied. Even in her
sleep she seems awake to this one
great object of her care. She starts
and rises from her slumbers, raises
her head, and watches with dreamy
eyes the face she loves, then sinks
again to rest, to start with every
chime of clock or distant sound,
which formerly had passed unhesrd.
or only served as a lullaby to her
sweet sleep.

Did anybody ever take a rich man
for q fool We think not. There
is a Glamour about wealth which
makes for its possessor n position to
which he is not entitled. Nothing
hides 8 blemish so completely as
cloth or gold. Gross and vulgar
minds will always pay higher res
pect to wealth than to talent. be-
cause 10 them wealth is an intrlIigi-
bic quality. In some sense they can
neither use nor appreciate it.
Wealth displays itself, talent hides
or is hidden. It Is easy to display
TO the vulgar our diamonds, emer-
aids, or other jewels it is not so
easy to exhibit the treasures of the
mind. The jewels captivate every
passer-by the glories of the mind
are hidden from all save those who
know the key to the casket wherein
they are contained. 1t requires a
key, a password, and warden to
see the famed jewels of England's
crown, but q few pennies viii buv
the works of the great mon who
make that crown thing Of value.

Smiles are little things, cheap arti-

blessings, both TO the giver and TO

Newspaper work.

An exchange in an able article on
newspaper work and wokers,"
truthfully remarks that there is no
other profession but enjoys immuni-
ty from observation as to its modes.
The preacher writes in the privacy
of his study, and can cOncOct plati-
tudes or pad out plagiarism that
would be the ruin of the editor and
reporter. The lawyer cOnsults his
client and organizes his campaign in
private, bringing into court only as
much as makes for his cause and
against the cause of his adversary.
The Doctor plies his pOtiOns and
launches in his lancet in secret. If
the patient recover, it may be the
medicine or it may be in spite of it;
if he die. it NAV be pills or Provi-
dence-the physician is seathless.-
None of these come to light that
their deeds may be reprOved.
Moreover, the work of the press
is continuous, as well as constantly
public. There is no peace in our
war. There is no rest for the weary.
Space Is no more annihilated by
telegraph than time by journalism.
The evening aud the morning are
not lucItlN tuC III II Nd - but all the
seven. Night is annihilated as to all
its quantities Of TepOse. Every min
ute of every hour of twenty-four is
occupied by some workers doing
some work that shows itself in the
newspaper of the day and afternoon.
RepetitiOnIis as impossible as rest
Facts are ever new. Comments
must be asIfresh as facts, ,,,and the edi-
ton is a remcTseless giant that eats
up the seconds. The making of
newspaper Is perpetual motion in a
thousand fields. In such a work.
demanding ceaseless effort, permit
ting no pause, eXacting eternal and
ever-yarying exercises, it is impos-
sible for wheat to be unmixed of
chat, for accuracy not to be impaired
by mistake, for injustice not Occa-
sionally to be done.
If man or woman wishes to
realize the full power OF personal
beauty, il must be by cherishIng no.
bic hopes and purposes by having
something to live for, which is wor-
thy of humanity, and which. bv ex-
panding the capacities of the soul
gives expansion and symmetry to
the body which contains it.

WHY THEY MARRY.
Miss Anna Dickinson On the Mat
ing Business.

MISS Anna Dickinson lectured in
New York on Tuesday night, her
subject being "Men's Rights
From her lecture, which we find in
the New York papers, we quote:
Miss Dickinson commenced by as
serting the broad principle that all
rights had e9uivalant duties. The
young man says: /, a young man,
have a right 70 be loved; | have a
right to a wife and children and a
home, and what man or woman
shall say me nay in the assertion of
such a right? But does he bring to
the partnership the same love that
he claimsl If ne does not he has no
right to it. He has no right to a
wife if he is not, in the truest sense
of the word, q husband in return
He has no right to morality, no
right to eOnstancy, no matter how
much he may desire them, if he does
not give a full share Of the equiva-
lent

Good Manners.


Young folks should be mannerly.
How TO be so, is the question. Many
a good girl aud boy feel that they
can't behave TO suit themselves in
the presence or company. They feel
timid, bashful aud self-distrustful
The moment they are addressed by a
stranger, or appear in company.
There is but one way TO get over
this feeling and acquire easy and
graceful manners that H., do the
best they can all the time at home
a. well as abroad. Gond manners
are not learned by arbitrary ieach-
ing so much as acquired by habit.
They grow upon us by use. We
must be courteous, agreeable, civil,
kind, gentleinaniy aud womanly al
home, and then twill become kind
Of second nature TO be 50 every
where. a coarse, rough manner at
home begets a habit Of rOughness
which we cannot lay oil, il we try,
when we 90 among strangers. The
most agreeable people ws have ever
known in company arc those who
are perfectly agreeable az home.
uoIne Is the school for all good
things, especially for good manners.

with large classes OF our voters, aud whose
sole aim aud object IL 10 keep the said voters
split up into so many camps merely for the
purpose Of trading upon them. All this Is
un-Amerlcan and un-Republicdn. It Is the
supreme law of the land that there shall be
no discrimination made in the matter Of suf-
frags against any one on account Of :Rcc,
