My DEAR FRIEND.-I wish | had
the power to express my thoughts in
regard to national affairs. | would
sound an alarm that would shake the
very foundation of the rotten Congress,
which if possible, grows worse and
worse. | expect the next move will be
a law to allow thom, 0he Members of
Congress) to enter any house and take
what money they can find. But l can
assure them one thing there will be
but little money left for any one out
Of Congress after they get all they
intend to have. Talk about highway
robbery. What are they doing?
What is to hinder Congress from
passing the law limited at above, allow
ing them to take money from any
man or woman, Gfa woman can be
found that has any whom they meet,
as long as people will stand still and
look on, and never, ask for a change.
Ask the supporters of the Repub-
lican party and Grants administration
how they like this form of Republican
government-raising their salaries,
and not satisfied with that, vote them
selves ''back pay | think these
Congressman were foolish that they
did not vote for a hundred thousand
dollars piece; for the people have
got so stupied, l believe that they
would have given them that just as
quick as they would give one dollar.
Congress is made up Of every thing,
"without distinction of race or color"
that means gold, silver or paper,
or anything they can lay their hands
upon.
You can understand, now, why
Grant should go in the second term.
The public good demanded that fifty
thousand dollars, for him, and an in
crease of salary for the rest. don't
think that there is another man in the
country that would stoop so low as
to sign the salary bill unless it is old
Grant and then take his double salary
with as much indifference as he would
if he came by it by more honorable
means But l must stop.

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stfoyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray Or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often so I'M
clearly and offensive Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for q HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume. =.

Increasing the Currency.


new hands is attracting the close at
tent!on Of the great business class o.
the country, aud in particular that u
acknowledged financiers. The single
feature about it that draws criticism is
the unannounced issue, from time to
time, of what is by courtsey styled the
greenback reserve, being the forty
four millions which were once with
drawn absolutely from circulation.
1t is the most dangerous of practices,
besides being wholly unnecessary and
without warrant Of law. 1t gives to
business Of all kinds floating and I'M
certain basis throws the control OF
the money market into the hands of
specializing cliques makes ordinary
commercial calculations impossible,
and fastens the Treasury of the United
States helplessly to the changing will
Of Wall street. If the daily state
ments of the amount Of currency out
are to be Of any value under such new
circumstances, they should be prefxed
with days earlier announcement OF
how much was to be added or dimin
ished for the next twenty-four hours.
The business community, to be bene-
fitted at all by the information. ought
to be possessed of it beforehand. Now
it is but the aggrayation'of an evil
already existing And to make it still
worse, there are most positive rumors
that the daily purpose of the Treasury
is known by telegraph, and even by
mail, in Wall street, enough in advance
to make it for the substantial interest
of favored parties.
The new Secretary has announced
himself perfectly satisfied with the
narrow, illegal, expensive and wholly
inconclusive policy of his predecessor,
of whom no more can be said at the
most than that he conceived few
scrambling and stunted notions on
finance, and stroye to impress others
with their value by simply holding
fast to them. The President dismiss
ed such Secretary from Office with
the compliment Of an unqualified en-
dorsement which was simply insolent
and offensive to the business classes.
1t defed their criticism, while it fatty
denied their requests. 1t was the
stubborn announcement of 4 determ-
ination to pay no regard to resump-
ton, to the reduction of taxation, or
the reform of a tariff that enriches a
foreign commerce at the expence of
our own. And this the President
pledges himself to continue, while Mr.
Richardson follows after with pro-
mise of strict obedience. He is un-
fortunately making his word good by
a secret daily increase and diminution
of the national currency. Over two
and one-half millions more than the
amount permitted by. law are now in
circulation, with every symptom of an
attempt to push the total out at last
1.-THE limit of four hundred millions.
That appears to be the only policy Of
the Treasury as so far developed under
the new Administration. Congress is
responsible for not forbidding this
transgression of the law for the future,
for it is to itself, and not to the Execu-
tive, nor even to the Secretary of the
Treasury, that the Constitution en-
trusts the supreme control of the ma
tional fnances.--BoSton Post.
