THE man who has a gold dollar has so
much property, no matter what stamp is on
the coin. The government stamp to which
the Greenbackers attach so much importance
does not affect its value. That stamp may
be burned off, and the coin melted down,
but the intrinsic value is the same, and it
can be exchanged anywhere for the same
amount of properly. How is it with the
paper dollar? Will that bear the removal
of the Government stamp? Or with that
stamp with 10 purchase anything if the Gov
ernment is dishonest or becomes too poor
to pay its bills? If the Government
should be overthrown or dishonesty re-
fuse to take the currency it has made, the
gold dollar would be just as good, and would
buy just as much. What would be the plight
of the naper dollar under those circum-
would be worthless. That is,
the value of the gold dollar is intrinsic, and
cannot be destroyed. The value OF the paper
dollar depends upon the credit and good faith

who put it out, whether corporations or gov

that is the Greenback way of getting rich.

AN ex-Federal soldier, moved by the Dem
ocratic criticisms of Gen. Grants campaign
known as the evidences" discusses in the
Washington Republican the comparative
losses of Lees and Grants armies, when
each fought on the offensive, in the
campaign of 1868 and Grant in that of 1864.
Lee was on the offensive barely two months,
but Grant fought it out on that line whole
year. The writer sums up the issue as fol.
lows:
Grants losses from the Rapidan to Apo
mattoX Courthouse, from Confederate smo-
cratic authorities, in killed, wounded, death by
disease, and prisoners, was 115,000 Grant was
operating in an enemy's country, from which
he never retreated; an enemy acting almost
constantly on the defensive, in q country forth
fed by nature as also by the highest engineer
ing skill, in jungle, forest, swamp and mount
ain. The campaign lasted twelve months.
Lees losses from May. some time in the early
part of the month, 1868, to July of the same
year, from Charlottesville to Gettysburg,
aggregated 60,000. Against the advice of Gen.
Longstreet. he fought the battle of Gettysburg,
where he learned to ''know how it was your
self by attacking the Federals His losses
on that field footed up 000,-15, 900 prisoners
5000 found dead, and 5000 wounded remain
ing on the field, beside 1000 carried off by a
wagon train twenty-five miles in length. At
the same rate,-60, 900 loss in two months or
10000 per month"; had Lee continued fighting
twelve months, as the Army of the Potomac
fought in Virginia, as his losses would have
aggregated 100000. Who is the butcher?

From Private Letter Of tho Late It9y. MA, Staples
81 the Second Unitarian Church. brooklyn. ~ "
TO give yourself away in a.truc love Is
the beginning Of true humility and useful.
ness. The man or maiden who opens
that golden gate lives henceforth in
aswectcr and better atmosphere, Do but
bctrue to your higher instincts; do but
cultivate candor and simplicity and fideli.
~, and have every hope for you. But
never Let it pass from your thoughts how
much depends upon you now il you
would secure. not only love but respect.
Every married man and woman passes
through u transition after they come TO
know each other thoroughly, andtover Of.
ter they love each other more or less. II
they are patient with each others faults
and TRY to keep tho fairest face on all
things, try to make the hest OF all things,
they will find u new bond OF union In
this mutual helpiulness which is the truest
office of love. But II, when they find out
that they are each not angels, not altogeth-
or perfect, they become indifferent and
neglectful, then alas for both! Beware OF
this The sum Of human happiness Is
made up Of numberless little things. It
not the great things,-.:g great presents, great
occasions orsgyeat demonstrations OF any
kind which will make you happy; but the
many nameless courtesies and surprises Of
affection, the neat looks and kind words
and gentle ways and profound respect Of
true lovc.-It Is these little things which
falling drop by drop like spring showers
upon the frozen earth, melt away all that
Is cold and hard in our natures, and make
them bud and bloom with full luxuriance.
