A negro woman belonging to a

ligious songs with so much sweet
ness and fervor that the citizens of
Otto, Indiana, grew enthusiastic

her, as q testimonial of approval
of artistic merit and humble

Bright's Silver Bill.

Hon John M. Bright has in
troduced in the House of Repre-.
sentatives one of the most impor.
tant bills that any Congress has
been called upon to consider for
half a century, and one which, if
it becomes a law, will do more to
relieve the laboring and CONNER.
cial classes of the country, and
ease the money market, thsH any
similar scheme that bas been de.
vised.
For the benefit of our readers,
all of whom are interested in the
subject, we will explain, says the
Nashville Banner, the salient
features Of this measure, which
are: That the old round silver
dollar containing 4l29 grains OF
standard silver, shall be reinstated
as money, and made legal ten.
der for all and every purpose, save
where gold is stipulated in the
bond. Then again, it is made
the imperative duty of the mint
authorities to receive from any
person offering gold or silver bull
lion, in any shape whatever, from
a silver spoon to a bar from the
mines, aud issue to all such a note
payable in silver or gold as the
case may be, in 80, GO or 80 days,
or at such time as may be re-
quired to convert the same in
to coin, without any expense
TO the depositor except the actual
cost of coinage. Should MIR.
Bright succeed in getting this bill
passed, as he DOUBTLESS will, lis
effect will be to bring into imme-
diate use as money the gold and
silver Of our mineral regions as
fast as it is extracted from the
earth, instead of sending it to Eng
land to be sold as bullion as is
now the case. There is no ques-
ton whatever that our mines,
will produce not less than $780,.
100000 during the present year,
which will go into immediate cir
culation as money, thus adding
that amount in hard money to
the circulating medium Of the
country. So our readers will see
that we have not attached more
than due Importance to this meas
ure.

She is waiting-little Maysie;
i can see each shining curl,
And with JOY her eyes are beaming-
Mothers sweet, Old-fashioned girl.
For she kissed me when we parted,
With tremor at her throat;
But her words were bright and happy

And the mansions of the proud,
But | wearied of their wisdom
And was lonely in crowd.
Still in fancy have listened
To our wildwood robins note,
And to Maysi0's hopeful promise
IL will meet you at the boat"
Now I see the low-browed cottage
Nesting 'mong the maple trees,
And the perfume of the roses
Mingles with the evening breeze.
Ne'er again my feet shall wander
To those stranger lands remote,
Nor will Maysie need to promise
81 will meet you at the boat"
