r
ment in coin and the assurance in the act of
1870 of par amount in the coin at the then
standard value, would seem to authorize, al
most to require it. Compliance with the con-
tracts cannot be breach of public faith. Our
country is a large producer of silver; the
quality of money is important to its value.
/ think that when restored, silver will ap-
proach and perhaps reach gold in value, but
should experience prove that it must remain
below gold, because of its greater production
Congress has ample power to provide against
any evils likely to follow.
Washington special to New York Herald
"The President ia understood to hold that he
ought to be allowed large liberty about
removals from Office, inasmush as he is re-
sponsible for the conduct of public business,
and that he may be justified in removing an
officer by the fact that while the incumbent
does we'll in some respects, the person ne
would substitute would be better man in
all the relations of the place. He holds also
that Federal officer ought not on y to be
capable of performing the duties of the place
he holds, but should also be satisfactory to
the community in which he is to hold office,
and that man entirely capable otherwise,
would be an improper nomination, if, by rea-
son of his relations to the community, he
were generally disliked."
"A few days ago internal revenue officers
went to the residence of Mrs. Lydia Wings,
of Taswell county, Virginia, for the pur-
pose of arrestng her, on the charge ofillicit dis
tillng and violating the whisky laws. They
found her in bed She refused to get up, and
told them if they wanted her they would
have to take her by force. In this dilemma,
two officers promptly set to work. While
one pulled on her stockings and garters and
shoes, the other hauled her to sitting POSI-
ton, and bunglngly endeavored to place a
mass of skirts, waists, dresses and other artl-
cles of attire in their proper places. AS soon

TRUE SrRENGTH.-We must measure
a mans strength by the power of the
feelings he subdues. not by the power
of those which subdue him. And hence

strength. Did you ever see a man re-
ceive a fragrant injury, and then repl y

We too often make strong feelings for

THE BLESSING OF A CHEERFUL
WIFE.-What a blessing to a house
hold is merry, cheerful woman-one
whose spirits are not affected by wet
days, or little disappointments. or
whose milk of human kindness does
not sour in the sunshine of prosperity.
Such q woman in the darkest hours
brightens the house like little piece
OF sunshiny weather. The magnetism
of her smiles and electrical brightness
of her looks and movements infect
everyone. The children 90 to school
with sense of something great to be
achieved; her husband goes into the
world in conqueror's spirit. No
matter how people annoy and worry
him all day, far off her presence shines
and he whispers to himself, "At home
| shall find rest" So day by day she
literally renews his strength and energy
and if you know q man with beam
ing face, q kind heart and u prosperous
business, IN nine cases out of ten you
will find he has wife of this kind.
