The death Of Charles Sumner removes one Of
the great men of the nation, judging him by the
so years and tho influence he has had during the
greater part of this period in the public life of
the country. Many circumstances, still freshly
remembered, have, in late years, combined to
break the strong hold upon the confidence which
his carly ane courageous championship In the
anti-slavsry contest gave him. New men and
unfamiliar influences came into power with the
close Of the war, men with whom he had nothing
in common, astuated by motives with which he
had little sympathy which he failed to estimate
at their true value Justly proud Of his position,

SoYER, the noted cook, says that man
eats on an average, from the time he is ten
years old, to the time when he dies, 80 oxen,
200 sheep, 100 calves, 200 lambs, 80 pigs, 1900
chickens, 300 turkeys, 1853 pigeons, 14O lbs.
salmon, 120 lbs. of otaer fish, 10000 oysters,
5,433 lbs. ofvegetables, 243 lbs. butter, "a, 900
eggs and TONS of bread. These figures are
sufficient to alarm those with any inclination
to dyspepsia, but when we reflect that most
men eat more than the average, as Sir Boyle
Roach would express 1t, the subject is truly
appalling to any but a butcher or market
man. We suppose there is no escaping M.
Soyer's figures, and that a man must eat his
fifty pigs whether he likes pork or not. II
the boy on completing his second lustre could
be permitted to drive a bargain with fate, the
situation might lose something of its gloom
For example, he who abhors veal might b.
allowed to s'swap" his hundred calves for d
proportionate amount of pigeons, or the cpl
cure could take all his fish in salmon, or the
vegetarian exchange his oxen tor several extra
tons of bread and vegetables. Until some
such arrangement as this is entered into men
will continue to protest, however unavaling-
ly, against the diet which destiny, in the per-
son of M. Seyer, has ordained for them.

NOT INITIATION AFTER ALL.

NOT INITIATION AFTER ALL.
There has been much stir among both the
leading friends and chief opponents of the SEN
ate currency bill, over the calculations made
by.Comptroller Knox in regard to its opera.
ton, and communicated by him in response to
private inquiries as to its real effect upon the
currency. These calculations show that with
the Scott amendment, requiring one quarter OF
the reserve to be kept at home, the bill really
becomes one requiring immediate contraction,
upon its passage, to an amount nearly equal to
the increase Of bank currency authorized by
the bill 1t further appears that while con-
tractiohs must take place at once, the issue of
new currency will be very gradual These cal
culations have surprised both the friends and
opponents of initiation The expansiopists
were totally mlsled as to the effect of the ScXtt
amendment and its friends are almost eonaIIv
surprised, as they seem not to have aimed a.
producing any such contraction. As the conn
troller states the case, the senate bill now
pending in the house authorizes the increase
of the national bank currency $46, OOO, 900 hui
requires one quarter of the amount of reserves
of the banks of redemption TO be held in
New York city, instead of one-half the amount
as under the existing law; and in the case of
the county banks, one-quarter instead of three
fifths, as under the existing law. The bill will
largely increase the amount of cash reserve to
be held by banks.

Poverty of the Hood.

If the blood be thin and watery the whole system
is Impoverished. The flesh is fabby, the muscles
lack hardness the nerves relaxed, the internal
organs but imperfectiy perform their functions the
brain is inert and in Short the entire body is only
half alive. The stomach is mainly responsible for
this wretched condition of the human machine.
Stimulate and tone the organ with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, and marked change for the better
will soon be apparent. The result of improving the
digestion with this potent and genial tonic will be
the conversion OF the food into rich pure blood
as the blood is the raw material from which flesh,
muscle, brain. bone, ard every membrane, tissue
aud ligament of the body are manufactured, all
those components of the material frame will be
gradually regenerated and invgorated. This is
sound doctrine, and it is sustained by the logic
of facts.

divide on the question of the currency, Such
is the frenzy in the West in favor OF imitation
that we fear that the strength OF the party
would be confined to New England, New
York and few other states, the great bulk
OF the South aud West being for more legal
tenders. 1t may be well to begin to educate
the country on this subject and for that pur-
pose there can be no better tact than the

THE RIGHT OF THE STATE TO TAX BANKS

THE RIGHT OF THE STATE TO TAX BANKS
The decision of Chief Justice Waite will. no
doubt, bring about a change in our law re-
garding the taxation of bank shares. The
Legislature under this decision, will have the
power to assess bank tax in the same way
that the corporation tax is now assessed and
collected. This will remove large amount of
work from the local assessors and collectors, and
will simplify the collection of tax which no
one pretends is not Justly imposed.
