TEE FINANCIAL QUESTION.

Mr.. Wright in the Senate and Mr..
Wilson Of Indiana. il the House are very
emphatic IL their opposition to Senator
Sherman views on the finance question.
He has decided opinion in favor Of The
possibility aud good policy Of re-
sumption. They are equally emphatic
III favor OF expansion. So, too. is Sen
ator John 4. Logan. In the House Mr..
Wilson gave form to his views in a Sc
ries of resolutions which, with their pre-
ambie. are given as follows:
WHEREAS, l.; reason Of the present
monetary stringcncy and insuffic.ency of
the amount of the circulating medium,
the industry and commercial affairs OF
the country have been greatly depressed. !.
and, whereas, by reason Of such strin-
etncy the revenues Of the Government
have been largely diminished. in conse-
Queuce whereof CJrgTess has been asked
t. increase taxation to the aNogut Of
S142, ,GG0, 600: and. whereas. dUrirg the
recent panic, revenues were not amp 9
enough to meet the current eEYeusrs Of
the Government; therefore.
Res. .!reJ. That instead of ieyying al.
d.ti0ual taxes. the :-ue policy lies in the
enactment Of such laws aS will relieve
such st-ingency and supply neans nee
ts~lry to tn business wants of the
country by increasing the circulating
medium thereby relieving business i'll
treasin, revenue. and thus avoiding the
necessity Of increasing ii. present rates
,l- taN lint
OF additional taxes or duties.
h4SoIrsd. That the Committee on
Banking and Currency te instructed to
prepare ard report 10 the House without
delay I. bill Tor the purpose IL the tiist
resolution expressed. and that the Com
u.ittee have leave to report II any time.
Dawes remarked that tle sul jet WAS
before two committees al present. and
suggested that instead Of having vote
now the resolutions be simply introduced
and set down for debate. so that the va
rious views Of the members might be
brought ont and the Committee on Ways
and Means and on Banking and Cur
rencv might have the benefit of those
views. The Committee on Ways and
Means proposed TO report something to-
morrow which would be subject of de-
t.te confined to this matter.
Holman objected 10 the discussion.
Wilson said he had drawn the resolu
tioEs for the express purpose of letting
the public know whether or not there
was to be an increase of currency.

Lead Works In Eng1And.

In one of the most important lead
works in England there is in operation
a line of about one. thousand yards of
improved wire tramway, driven by q
twenty-four foot water-wheel. The
plan consists in the employment Of IN
endless wire rope, supported onpulleyA
which are carried at q considerable
height from the ground, on twenty-five
strongly framed timber posts. The
water-wheel draws the rope at about
five miles an hour, and it carries with it
o series of continuous stream Of iron
buckets or more being hung be-
tween each post-in which is placed
one hundred weight Of dressed lead
ore, The rope being endless, the full
buckets travel on one side Of the sup
ports, and the empties return on the
other The pendants, by which the
buckets are hung, are especially formed
to allow of their passing the points Of
support with perfect ease. The ore is,
at the receiving house, shot into a hop.
per Of an ore bin, erected at distance
below. It is stated that the delivery OF
the dressed ore from this mine has fol
many years been attended with much
trouble and expense, on account Of
there being avery sharp ascent, Of two

fourth Of q mile, with q like descent on
the other side, down to the road. The
wire tramway obviates this, as by it,
means five tons Of dressed ore are nov
delivered per hour into the company'f

Oysters Growing ON Trees.

Mr.. G. II. Williams, Fellow Of the
Geographical Society of England, tells
us, in the Hartford Times, how oysters
inhabit the mangrove woods in Cuba.
For several years." he says, II re-
sided in that island, and travelled there
more than the ordinary, run of foreign
era, and have several times come across
scenes which many people would con-
slider great curiosities-one in particu-
lar. No doubt the reader will open
his eyes at oysters growing on trees.
Often have seen the sheer of unbelief
on the face of the ignorant when the
fact had been mentioned; but grow
they do, and in immense quantities,
especially in the southern part of the
island. I have seen miles of trees, the
lower stems and branches of which were
literally covered with them, and many
2 good meal have I enjoyed with very
little trouble of procuring, and not
quite so expensive as they are in Lon
don at the present time. I simply
placed the branches over the fire. and.
when opened, I picked them out with q
fork or pointed stick. These peculiar
shell-fsh are Indigenous in lagoons and
swamps on the coast, and as far as the
tide will rise and the spray fly, so will
they cling to the lower parts of the
mangrove trees, sometimes four or five
deep, the mangrove being one of the
very few trees that flourish in salt
water"

How the Eye is Swept and Washed

How the Eye Is Swept and Washed.
For us to be able to objects clearly
and distinctly, it is necessary that the
eye should be kept clean. For this
purpose it is furnished with q little
gland, from which flows q watery fluid
(tears), which is spread over the eye by
the lid, and is afterward, swept off by it,
and runs through q hole in the bone to
the under surface Of the nose, while the
warm air, passing over it while breath
ing, evaporates it. It is remarkable
that no such gland can be found in the
eyes Of fish, Al. the elementin which they
live answers the same purpose.
If the eye had not been furnished
with liquid to wash it, and a lid to
sweep it off, things would appear a.
they do when you look through . dusty
glass. Along the edges of the eye]ida
there is a great number of little tubes
or glands, from which flows an oilysub-
stance which spreads over the surface
of the skin and thus prevents the edges
from being sore or irritated, and it also
helps to Keep tears within the lid. There
are also six little muscles attached 70
the eye which enable us to move it in
every direction; and when We consider
the different motions they are capable
of giving to the eye, we cannot but ad.
mire, the goodness of Him who formed
them, and thus saved us the trouble Of
turning our heads every time we wished
to view an object.

A Scotch Lads Idea Of Regeneration,

"A OCVtCSA ASsN ANc1 vi ht8On0fSt4Ons
The following good story which is
tolerably aged on the other side of
the water, is probably new to the read
ers Of American literature: It is GUS
tomary in Scotland when the minister
visits his congregation pastorally, as it
is called, to gather all the members of
the family around him and catechise or
examine them in. reference to their
knowledge of religious truth. On one
of these occasions little fellow called
Johnnie was asked by his minister in
the course of the examination if he knew
what was meant by regeneration. Being
. dull scholar in the ,catechis1nh e hest
tated and. hounde.ed for some time in
hopeless perplexity, and, finally had to
be told that it meant to be born again,
or born the second time. "Well, said
the minister, continuing the subject.
Johnnie, would ye no like to be born
again?" "Na, ma" said Johnnie, in his
broadcast accent. "Why, Johnnie?"
said the good man, surprised and hor-
rified, Sc Why would ye no be born
again9'' Because" said Johnnie, with
more quickness than they had given
him credit for, Because then I might
be born lassie."

2. Why . Child Loves Sugar.

The craving of children for sweets is
well known to be one Of the most i'm
'perious of their appetites. It has re-
ference probably to that oeaseless activ-

age Of childhood. 1tmay be that sugar

Diseases Of the Blood.

"The Blood il the Life" When
this source ia corrupted, the painful
and sorroH-producing effects are visible
in many shapes. The multifarious forms
in which it manifests itself, would form
subjects upon which I might write vol
umes. But as all the varied forms of
aesease which depend upon bad blood
are cured, or best treated, by suchmed-
icines as take up from this fluid and ex.
crete from the system the noxious ele-
ments, it is not Of practical importance
that I should describe each. For in
stance, medical authors describe about
fifty varieties of skin disease, but -
they all, require for their cure very SIM
liar treatment it is of no practical. util-
ity to know just what name to apply to
a certain form of skin disease, 20 you
know how best to cure it. Then again
T might 60 on and describe various
kinds of scrofulous sores, fever sores,
white swellings, enlarged glands, and
ulcers of varying appearance; might
describe how virulent poison may show
itself in various forms of eruptions, ul-
cers, sore throat, bony tumors, etc; but
as all these various appearing manifes-
tations of bad blood are cured by uni
form means, I deem such course I'M
necessary. Thoroughly cleanse the
blood, which is the great fountain of
life, and good digestion, q fair skin,
buoyaut spirits, vital strength, and
soundness of constitution, will all re-
turn to us. For this purpose DIR.

the Prussian minister's reception in
Rome recently, and during the evening
she sent one of her gentlemen, as is the
etiquette, to invite the famous Gregg
rovius to waltz with her. The poor,
learned historian was terribly embar-
raised. "But I never danced in nv
ife," he exclaimed. II don't know
how to dance, either" "You must come
and tell her royal highness, them" said
the young nobleman. Gregorovius went
to the Princess and thanked her for the
great honor she had conferred upon
him, and expressed his deep regret at
his Ignorance, which prevented him
from accepting the, honor she, had Of

gracious way, which is SO winning and

which was near her, sofa Of state said,
"Since you do not dance, Mr.. Gregoro-
