DISPATCHES from Washington state
that the point to which gold has fallen
gives the Treasury officers, more conf
dence In the practicability of enforcing
the law for the substitution of silver
for fractional currency. If gold can
be long maintained at this point, they
hold that greenbacks are worth as
much as gold, and that the silver coin
can be foated. The plan of The
Treasury is, in the event the gold pre-.
MUM shall warrant it, to put in circu.
lation, about October, the very con-
siderable amount of silver coin already
on hand, and which can easily be coined,
and to keep it floating by the monthly
coin products Of the minis. But viii

AT the date of the last report of the
Comptroller of the Currency there were
1904 National Banks In the country.
OF officers and directors, they have not
less than $4,000. OF shareholders, it
would be safe to say that there are a
million and a had and probably many
more. On the End Of last October the
deposits reached about SSO0,OOO,OO0.
The notes exceeded 1888, ,OOO-the
combined amounts being nearly ST.
2OO,OOO,O00. This enormous interest is
distributed In every State and Territory
of the Union. The influence of the
National Banks is almost universal,
and were 1t not that many of those
having a large pecuniary interest IN
these banks believe that the system is
a fatally ruinous one to the industry
and commerce of the country, we
should despair of another Democratic
victory.

How Porter Injured the Cause OF
BecChers

The most damaging thing that has hap
pened to Mr.. Beecher,s side of the case,
just now coming to its end, is the stab
given it by Ex-Judge Porter. In our esti-
nation this wound will prove fatal to a
verdict for the defense. There have been
many serious wounds inflicted upon MIR.
Beecher. His side of the case was badly
crippled in its opening by the high-haud-
ed, vituperatire and bombastic promises
of Mr.. B. +. Tracy, and series of Witness
ess, whose personal feelings for Mr.. Beech
er were so strong that their bias amounted
almost. to q perversion Of the facts they
stated, followed in the train and strain of
| this opening, which have their logical Sc
anence in the summing up of Ex-Judge
Porter. Perhaps Mr.. Beecher's lawyers
really know the bottom facts of their case,
and as lawyers always do when such facts
are against their client, resort to black
| guarding the oppos lite side as their best
defense. If this is really the case it fur
nishes a solution to the extraordinary
speech that has been made by Mr.. Porter.
But even this solution shows the want OF
wisdom that has ruled Mr.. Beecher's side
Of the case. It is true that the conflicting
fevi,!ence that has been introduced will
i make it a difficult task for the jury to
come to just verdict, founded strictly
4 upon the evidence.
1t is this fact, in connection with the
above probability, that caused Mr.. Porter
| to still more nystify tho jury by giving
additional colorins to the disparasine
I facts developed against Nr. Tilton by the
! stream of coarse and vulgar (not to say
false and blackguarD language that has

HORACE GREELEY AND GENERAL BRECK-
INR1DGE.-An incident of Breckinridge's
later life, never before published, was
related TO us a day or two since by the
Hon. Hester Clymer, at his charming
home in Reading, Penn. Mr.. Clymer
had just received his newspaper mail
announcing the death of Gen. Breckin-
lidge as we entered his dwelling, and
remarked upon the sad intelligence,
the relations of these gentlemen in Con-
gress, and elsewhere, having been ever
cordial and Intimate. Said he: "The
last time l saw General Breckenridge
was few years since. We were So
iourning at the Clarendon Hotel, New

members of the Democratic party.

His response was instant and full o.

met thee, darling, bright and pure,
In girlh0ods gladstone years:
No care Of earth had touched thy brow,
Nor dimmed thine eye with tears.
Thou had'st not then Ger dreamt dream
fpain, or grief, or care
The world to thy young life seemed true,
The earth, the sky We're fair.
Twas then we met, then my life too
Was in its morning bright;
My heart, till then, was still untaught
OF tears or loves delight.
l saw thy angel face and loved
Atored thee at thy feet
Nor asked thee aught of recompense,
Save glances kind and sweet.
Thy spirit, too, was pcarly pure;
| Thy grace of heart and mind
Forged the silken links of love
That bound my heart to thine.
l wooed thee then and wooed to win,
| As zephyr woos the flower
My every thought breathed incense to
Thy beauty's matchless power.
Princely honors, wealth OF fame
! Had these gifts to glve,
All, all were thine, for one brief hour
| Beneath thy smile to live.
Long days and months and years that now
Have passed since last we met, -
Have powerless been to break the spell
That fingers round me yet.
pTis sad for lips to say farewell
! That once have pleaded love-
TITS sad to wreck the heart that can
For years so loyal prove.
1t may, perhaps, be fate's decree
That thus our lives must sever,
Harsh and bitter though it be-
j Though cast alone on lifes wide sea-
My heart is thine as ever.
). Then doubt the stars, doubt truth is true
Doubt all you hear and see;
But doubt not, darling, love like mine
1t meier can falthless be!

CUTTING FLOWERS. cut flowers
during intense sunshine, nor keep them
exposed to the sun or wind. Do not
collect them in large bundles, Or tie
them together, as this hastens their de-
cav. Do not pull them, but cut them
clearly off the plant with a sharp knife,
not with scissors. When taken in
doors, place them in the shade, and re-
duce them to the required length OF
stalk with sharp knife, by which the
tubes, through which they draw up the
water is permitted to ascend freely:
whereas, If the stems are bruised or la
cerated, the pores are closed up. Use
nnre water to set them in, or pure
