SHALL MEANS.

We think that the power of money
is, on the whole, overestimated. The
greatest things which were done for
the world have not been accomplished
by rich men. or by subscription lists.
but by men generally of small pecu-
mary means. The greatest thinkers,
discoveries, inventors and artists have
been men of moderate wealth, many
of them little raised above the condI
ton Of manual laborers in point OF
worldly circumstances. And it will
always be so. Riches are oftener an
i'm pediment than q stimulus of action;
and in many cases they are quite as
much a misfortune as a blessing. The
youth who inherits wealth is apt tn
have life made too easy for him, and
SO grows stated with it because he has
nothing left to desire. Having no
special object to struggle for, he finds
time too heavy on his hands; remains
mentally and morally asleep; and his
position in society is often no higher
than that OF a polypus over which the
tide floats.

saw twenty-five million lS25, 600 600

transferred, no. in coin, but in Govern

tenth OF that amount; the work of ad-

Many of the leading newspapers OF
the South and West favor the construc-

st. Louis contemporary maintains
that sit would pay the %nation"to build,
and proceeds to show how the Govern
ment would be benefited as follows:
/. BY bringing into market hun
dreds of millions of acres OF good land
which are now dead properly to the
United States.
q. BY adding millions OF population
to the present number OF its producers
and taxpayers Of the country.
3. By doubling and trebling the an
nual yield of the precious metals in the
United States.
A.. By a heavy increase of our Gus

S. By the general stimulus of pro.

the States east OF the Mississippi, to
supply the wants OF the settlers in the
new regions to be traversed by the
road.

and Austria, have spentsuch enormous
sums of money, pledged without stint
their public credit, and found their re-

OFFERS TO SELL BULLION.
Blair's Memorial i'm the
House.
WASHINGTON, Marc

WASHINGTON, March IL.
Secretary Sherman was before the
Committee on Weights and Measures,
this morning. and gave his vie VS. about
the proposed measure for issuing GER
tificates of deposits of silver bullion.
In this connection the question was
discussed as to whether such certiti-
Gates should merely represent bullion
at its market value, or whether the
Government should buy bullion with
the certificates. 1t seemed to be con-
ceeded that certificates should be is
sued, but the committee came to no
conclusion as to details.
The Secretary of the Treasury has
been strongly urged 10 buy silver bull
ion with gold. but this he is disinclined
to do, believing it injndicions to use
the surplus gold in the Treasury for
this purpose. 1t is claimed b a he can
save eight per cent. by paying gold for
the bullion needed to COIN new silver
dollars. The Director OF the Mint has
received a number OF offers for the sale
of bullion to the Government in ac-
cordance with the provisions OF the
recent circular, and from the amoun
can not be maintained.
