anil money. Domestic happiness and
friendly hospitality are thereby cast aside,
and life is spent in the dreariest sort Of
acting for which one receives neither
the applause Of others nor of his or Of
her own conscience. Many family,
collectively and Individually, work for this
false end. They give entertainments that
nearly ruin them to people they care moth
ing for, with whom they have no sympa-
thy, and who have no earthly sympathy
with them while congenial persons, who
really have some liking for them, are quite
neglected, because there is nothing to be
gained by knowing plain Mrs. Brown or
Mr.. Smith.
Oh, dreary evenings, given the recep-
ton Of formal circle of somebodies Oh,
woful bapquets, at which our somebodies
nibble little at the costly dainties pro-
vided by their ambitious entertainers Oh,
what ashes lie at the heart of this Dead
Sea fruit If you wish to be happy you
must open the doors Of your home to those
whom YOU esteem or love. You must take
for your friends those who suit you you
must, however rich, make your entertain
ments opportunities for social meetings,
and not occasions for display.
And it is far better to have beneath
your roof those who are honored aud com
forted by your hospitality than those who
condescend to visit you because you court
them. Purse-prodd ignorance is always
the likeliest to fancy itself every poor per.
sons superior, and you probably would
not recognize real superiority by anything
in its manner or bearing.

PROPOSED EXTENSION OF THEJ. r..
AND X CANAL ..

Whether there be anything serious in
the developed attempt to raise two millions
of dollars by loan to continue work on the
canal is something that remains to be de-
monstrated. The Lynchburg Virginian
thus notices some of the advantages which
would accrue from the proposed expendi-
ture. 1t says:
"The James River and kanawha Canal
company is applying to the Legislature for
permission to issue two millions of dollars
worth of bonds, the proceeds of which are
to be applied to the extension of their
work to Clifton Forge, in Allegheny
county, the nearest point OF junction with
the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. This
extension would insure largely augmented
carrying trade for the canal, and do more
for Lynchburg and Richmond than any
scheme that could be projected. 1t would
insure cheap connection with the coal
fields of the Kanawha Valley and make
I.ynchburg manufacturing city, if any
thing can. Besides, it would hurry up
the Clifton Forge railroad to this city and
q shorter railroad connection with Rich
mond which that city greatly needs. The
high grades that must be encountered be-
tween Clifton Forge and Staunton, and the
long, circuitons route of the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad to Richmond, must al
ways operate to prevent cheap transporta-
ton of coal over that line to the Richmond
market, as well as to this but, with the
canal completed to Clifton Forge, Lynch
burg, Richmond and Norfolk might become
great depots for the sale of cheap coal from
the richest mines on this continent y

orr FINANCES.

From the present outlook, says 'he NE"
Work Commercial Journal, We are led to
fear that Congress will fail to adopt such
,,eosures of financial reform as will give
even temporary relief. AS men emoar-
rassed either by selfshness OF ignorance
or the two combined, which seriously
aggravate the case-constltute the majority
in Congress, it will probably be in vain
that we look for prompt and benelicent
legislation. The difficulties to be over
comedy "good men and true -
10 nressinp to successful issue
such measures as will prove OF
benefit to the greatest number, are very
formidable. The National Bank interest is
exceedingly powerful and ably led; and it is
more than probable that it will defeat the alb
surd scheme under the taking title Of Gree
Banking" as it would break. up the pres
ent monopoly of the national banks. The
breaking up Of that monopoly is the only
good feature in Stree Banking" so.called,
while the amount of damage that it would
do could hardly be computed.
While 80 much time and money is being
expended in the discussion of finance,
without even a fair prospect that any
wholesome measure will be adopted, the
prompt solution of the whole question is
an easy matter. In the first place do right!
This requires that immediate attention be
given to the redemption of greenbacks as
they are the only orer-due, dishonored prom.
Uses of the government. 1t is impossible,
as all will admit, to pay them in gold, but
it is not only possible but highly proper
that any holder of say one thousand dollars
in greenbacks, and multiples of that
sum, shall have the option of taking from
the government in their stead, at any time
bonds bearing some equitable rate of in
terest, say three and sirty fire one-hun
4redths per cent per annum, said bond
being made payable on demand Of the hold
er. This would not only remove the stall
of dishonor now resting upon the govern
ment for not making provision LOT Uni
forced loan of long standing, but it woul
in a most admirable manner regulate tn
money markets of this continent. 1t woul
prove that the following concise-oft-re

SURPRISING INVESTIGATION.

Our Washington correspondent, says
the New York Mercantile journal, ex-
poses trick that has been attempted with
some success in the House of Representatives
this session. The general desire and ex-
pectation was that this session of Congress
should be largely devoted to Investigations,
as there is reason to believe that great rot
tenness exists at Washington in many
quarters. 10 fact, except proper currency
legislation, there is probably nothing so
much needed from this Congress as
full investigation in many directions.
Much legislation has been enacted in
past years on the assumption that it would
have certain effects; it is high time now to
stop, look about us, and inquire whether it
has had those effects, and whether it has
not had other and highly injurious effects !;
also to stop legislating on the assumption
which all experience disproves that the
working of laws can be fully foreseen.
1t is time to legislate cautiously in
stead of boldly, since bold and confident
legislation has bred trouble; it is time
to repeal much Of the law hastily
enacted at the corrupt instigation of
pretended patriots during the confusion Of
civil disorder; and for the intelligent
following out Of these needs of the hour,
patient and exhaustive investigation is
needful. 1t is no answer to say that
members time is otherwise occupied.
This may be true of the old members, On
whom the tasks of leadership devolve;
but the House contains one hundred and
seventy new members, from whom any
requisite number of investigating commit
tees can be raised.
