THE SILVER ISSUE.
Full Text Of the Joint ResOlu.
ton Passed by Both Houses
OF Congress-. =

The following is the full text of the joint
resolution for the issue of silver coin, which
passed both houses of Congress and now goes
to the President for signature:
Resolued, That the Secretary of the Treas
ury, under such limits and regulations as will
best secure a just and fair distribution of the
same through the country, may issue the silver
coin at any time in the Treasury to an amount
not exceeding SIC, 0,00O, 900, in exchange for an
equal amount of legal tender notes, and the
notes so exchanged shall be kept as a special
fund, separate and apart from all other money
in the Treasury, and be re-issued only upon
the retirement and destruction of a like sum
of fractional currency received at the Treas
ury in payment of dues to the United States,
and said fractional currency, when so substi-
tuted, shall be destroyed and held as part of
the sinking fund, as provided in the act ap-
proved April II, 1876.
SECTION 2. That the trade dollar shall not
hereafter be legal tender, and the Secretary
of the Treasury is hereby authorized to limit
from time to time the coinage thereof to such
an amount as he may deem sufficient to meet
the export demand for the same
SEC. 8. That in addition to the amount of
subsidiary silver coin authorized by law to be
issued in redemption of the manufacture at
the several mints and issue through the Treas
ury and its several offices, such coin to an
amount that, including the amount of sub
sidiary silver coin and of fractional currency
outstanding, shall in the aggregate not exceed
at any time $50, ,000,0 900.
SEC. That the silver bullion required for
the purposes of this act shall be purchased
from time to time at market rates by the Sec
retary of the Treasury with any money in the
Treasury not otherwise appropriated, but no
purchase of bullion shall be made under this
resolution when the market rate for the same
shall be such as will not admit of the coinage
and issue as herein provided without loss to
the Treasury, and any gain or seigniorage
arising from this coinage shall be accounted
for and paid into the Treasury as provided
under existing laws relative to the subsidiary
coinage, provided that the amount of money
at any one time invested in such silver bullion,
exclusive of such resulting coin, shall not ex-
ceed $500, 1000.

In the days when everybody is telling what
they kown of Gen. Geo. A. Custer, a few re-
miniscense of his early days may not be out
of place. In 1855 and '56 he was student at
the Normal School in this village. During
two years he attended school ''off and on, ~
occasionally away for while teaching CON-
mon school. While here he received his ap-
pointment, through the influence of Hon.
John A. Bingham, then Member of Congress
from this District, to the Military Academy
a. West Point. He was then, as always, a
Democrat, ane during the exciting campaign
of 1856 cheered Justify for Buchanan and
Breckenridge. He had keen sense of hu-
NOR, and always ready to make fun. He
neuer laughed at his own jokes. While others
were in roars of laughter at his tricks, he
was calm and composed as though nothing
amusing had occurred. One OF our country
boys, during the sleighing season, was ac-
customed to drive an OK, well covered with
bells, in sleigh. One evening he drove to
town and ,hitched near the hotel When ready
to go home he found his OK gally decorated
with immense ox-bells of snow more than q
foot in diameter, one on each horn. Custer
had been around. Once, during the bitter
cold weather of mid winter, his roommate, 2
sleepy herded fellow who was in the habit of
going to bed very early, could not find his
boots in the morning. After some search they
were discovered on the door-steps, full of ice
TO the tops and hard as bones. They had been
filed with water, placed out of doors, and
nature did the rest. Custer, as always, was
perfectly innocent. Once he gave fellow,
now practicinS law in Dissouri, good UNI
brella thrashing for knocking off his had while
was promenading the streets with lady; this
on the spot, in the presence of the lddy, too.
Custer was what he appeared. There was
nothing hidden in his nature. He was kind
and generous to his friends; bitter and i'm
placable towards his enemies. Those longest
and best acquainted with him most deeply
mousn the tragic fate of George Armstrong

THURSDAY. AUGUST 8, 1876.

An Indian war is 50 common thing that
no national administration can ever count on
being exempt from the trouble. Almost every
district has been fought over, and all that may
occur in the now west is but a repetition of
what has happened in the older States and
Territories We always boast of our being at
peace with all the world. But it is seldom
true. East of the line forming the western
boundaries of Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri,
Arkansas and Louisiana, the red man is done
foa in this world. He fought as long as he
could, and for him war was as necessary as
eating. Those who regard his fate with re-
gret, and yet are proud of the mighty empire
that has been reared ouer his bones, must have
xueer tastes. West of that frontier we have
a whole congregation of new States and Ter
ritories, in all of which an Indian warfare is a
perpetual menac. Civilization and barbarism
cannot possibly exist together. One must go
down. In new Mexico and Arizona we know
from the ruins that we see that it was eiviliza-
ton that perished. Are we content that it
shall perish in Montana, Nebraska, Wyoming
and Dakotah? If so all We have got to do is
to nurse and pamper, and WOO and fiatter, and
pay and feed these nurderous savages as We
have been doing. The peace and civilization
that are identified with the Indian race are
the peace and civilization of slavery and poly
gamy, of robbery and murder, of eternal
strife and pillage. Philadelphia North Ameri

Chance of Life.

From some elaborate tables drawn
up by DIR. Farr it would seem, as far as
can be made out, there are certain very
critical periods in our career. A baby,
for instance, has very small chance
indeed of growing up. But, on the
other hand, the period between the
tenth and fifteenth years inclusive is
that in which the death average is the
smallest. AT thirty-five we must be.
gin to take care of ourselves. At this
period constitutional changes set in;
our hair d teeth begin to fail US; our di-
gestion is no longer what it used to be;
we lose the vIgor of youth and neglect
outdoor exercise; above all, the cares
of life begin to make themselves per-
ceptibly felt. 1t is at this time that
deaths from suicide take marked
place in the returns of mortality, and
there is also considerable reason to be-
lieve that habits of intemperance are
apt to suddenly develop themselves.
The picture, however, has its sunshiny
side. 1t would take, of course, pro-
fessed autuary to deduce from DIR.
Farr's tables their exact result. Itap-
pears, however, that II man tides
over his 50th year he may make tolera-
bly, certain of living to seventy; while
If he reaches his seventy-fifth year,
there is a very strong presumption that
he will either turn his ninetieth birth
day or very near it. A still more in-
teresting question is opened by the se-
ries of tables which show the average
mortality in different professions and
pursuits. Gamekeepers are, for obvi-
ous reasons, the healthiest class of our
whole population; clergymen and agri-
cultural labOrers come next, and are
followed by barristers; solicitors aud
business men are less fortunate, while
at the extreme end of the scale come
unhealthy pursuits, such as printing
and tile grinding.-English Paper.

THERE came an energetic ring at the
door bell the other morning, and we
descended thestairs and grappled the
doOr-knob. A middle-agcd man, with
sinister countenance and ginister
breath, stood defore US.

'Ahp we replied. How is the EN-
