The Mint and Coinage bill which
passed both houses at the recent session
of Congress is one of more than usual
Importance, as it completely changes the
silver coinage of the country from and
after the LIST of April next. The new
dollar, or trade dollar, as it is called, has
no connection with the rest of the United
States coinage, but is only to be issued
to depositors of bullion on their order.
It is to be 900 points fine, to weigh 42C
grains, and will be worth five cents more
than the gold dollar, two cents more
than the silver dollar, and one cent more
than the Mexican dollar. 1t will have
its weight and fnness stamped upon it,
and will be much superior in workman
ship to the Mexican dollar. Should ii
will make an advance of at least 4 pei
cent. in their silver in supplying them
with the trade dollar. The new law also
adopts the French standard of weight
for all silver coins less than one dollar.
The weight of two half-dollars is fixed al
twenty-five grammes-equal to the five
franc piece-an increase of about hall
per cent, which places our silver coin.
age on a par with that of the current
| silver coinage of France, Spain, Italy,
Switzerland, and most of the South
American States. The establishment Of
the trade dollar has grown out of the
fact that the silver dollar hitherto has
failed to replace the Mexican dollar,
which is worth two cents more, with the
| Chinese. A recent alteration of the
stamp on the Mexican dollar has dis
gusted these Chinese with it, and Con
gress has seized the opportunity to make
a dollar for them which is worth one
cent more than the Mexican dollar.

The LAWS ofHenIth.

1t is useless for State legislatures to pass laws
for the preservation of the public health, if the
great law of self-preservation, which depends for
its enforcement upon the will of the individual, is
suffered to remain a dead letter. There is scarcely
an adult member of the community, of either sex,
in this country, who has not seen the testimony in
favor of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, furnished
over their own signatures by persons of acknowI.
edged eminence IN science, literature, art, COM
merce, and every department of business and
professional life. These witnesses have declared
IN the most explicit terms that the preparation rs
a safeguard against epidemics, a sovereign remedy
for dyspepsia, a valuable anti-bilious medicine,
promoter of appetite, a genial and harmless stimu.
liant, a good acclimating medicine, a strengthened
of the nerves, a general invigorant, a protection
against the deleterious effects of malaria and i'm
pure water, and that it imparts q degree of vigor
municated by any other of the tonics and stom.
achics in use. Under these circumstances the
self-preservative law of nature should teach every
rational person who, either by reason of inherent
debility or IN consequence of exposure to un-
wholesome influences, is in peril of losing the
greatest of all temporal blessings. health, the m
portnnce of using the Bitters as a defensive medi.
cine. Dyspeptics who neglect to give it a trial are
simply their ewn enemies. 1t Is guaranteed 20
cure indigestion in all its forms, and the bilious
and nervous will find nothing IN the whole range
of official and proprietary medicines which will
afford them the same relief.

Bons.Dust Bricks.

An Australian paper, speaking of the
vast quantities of bones that have been
accumulating in Melbourne since the
meat preserving occupations commenced
there, says The Miltiades, bound for
London, has on board a shipment of 100
tons of bone-dust, prepared for experta-
ton in an altogether novel manner and
one which promises to come into extern
sive use. To facilitate this trade, an
apparatus has been contrived for COM
pressing bone-dust into half its original
compass, reducing it at the same time
into a form very convenient for ship
ment. By means of strong pressure,
the crushed bones are nodded into cakes
of six inches square and three inches
thick, something like flooring tiles, each
cake weighing a little over four pounds.
These bone-dust tiles are just adhesive
enough to admit of their being handled
free1y-thrown about like bricks, if
necessary-and are yet SO free, that
when required for use they can readily
be crushed or melted by the application
of a little hot water. A ton weight of
the measures 26 cubic feet, and
contains 252 of the cakes.

THE Two EXTREMES. -Two classes of
medical thinkers attempt to cure disease
by opposite modes of treatment. One
class forces the system into preternatu-
raj activity; the other depresses and
weakens it. Both are wrong. To in
flame the blood of an invalid with medi-
Gated alcohol is as dangerous as to apply
undue steam pressure to a weak boiler !;
and to PROSTATE the physical energy,
which is the natural opponent of dis
ease, by depicting treatment, is an act of
almost equal temerity. There is a me-
dunn between these two extremes, and
DIR. JOSEPH WALKER, to whom the world
owes the famous CALIFORNIA VINEGAR
BITTERs, has been fortunate enough to
strike it. He has produced from simple
vegetable elements, without the admix-
ture of any distilled or fermented fluid,
a specific comprising the important
properties of a wholesome tonic, a gentle
%evacuant, a purifier of the secretions, a
pulmonic, a sedative, and a powerful
anti-bilious agent. Never before were
these six sanative qualities comprehend
ed in one medicine, and never before did
n medicine cure so many different dis
eases. Dyspepsia, liver complaint, dis
eases of the kidneys, rheumatism, inter
mittent fever, disorders of the bowels,
govt, nervous affections, and maladies
proceeding from impurity of the blood,
are only a few of the bodily ills for which
VINEGAR BrrTERs is considered an un-
falling remedy.-[Com.

The Debts of the Whole World:

A writer in the Pail Mall Gazette has
been figuring up the debt of the world,
and comes to the conclusion that the ag-
gregate Indebtedness of oil nations
reaches the respectable total of $21, 00O,-
900, 600. At an annual interest rate of
A per cent, this involves a burden of
S$445, 900, 900 a year. The chief national
debts of Europe and their interest
charge are thus tabulated

The above sum comes pretty near the
truth, save in the case of France, where
the actual debt certainly amounts to
81, 500, OO0, 900, and the interest charge
to at least $50, 600, 900 more than the
amount stated. The chief debts of the
