Ti1E HUMAN PACE,

4 statistician in England, in study
lng..a generation Of u million Of people
from birth to death. finds that one
Fourth Of them die before they reach
five years; less than One-tWenty-
eighth between five aud ten years: in
the next five years the mortality is
lower than at any periods; in the next
live years an increase, especially
among Women--the influence of dan
gerous occupations begins to be seen
in the death rate. Eight times as
many men as women die violent
deaths. This IS perceptible for
twenty years. Consumption is prev
aient and accounts for Ont-half of the
deaths from twenty to forty five.
From thirty-fye to forty-dve the
effects of the wear and tear of the
system are seen. vt forty-iive the
million is lessened to A2l. lI5-death
rate increasing rapidly. About one
sixth OF the million is left at seventy
five, at eighty-fiye only IS, 565 are
left, and at one hundred two hundred

and women surviving are u nout equal

onward the women exceed the men.

A LEAF FROM HISTORY.

Thurlow Weed. the veteran iourla-
list. recently wrote a letter of warming
20 the Republican party, in which he
said:
Can our leading journals and poll
ticians have forgotten the political
issue of 1887. SO and 1910! There rs
fare against paper money. President
Van Buren,, sustained by Colonel
Benton, Silas Wright. the Washing
ton Globe, Richmond Enquirer,
Albany Argus and New Hampshire
Patriot, demanded a gold currency.
Colonel Benton made speeches IL the
Unlted States Senate declaring that
-"yellOw boys, shining through the
lnterstices OF q siken purse" must
become the exclusive currency of our
country.
This warfare upon
paper money precipjtated i financial
crisis. Committees from New York
and other cities visited Nashingto!i
seeking relief from measures which
occasioned widespread suffering
among all the industrial classes. In
response to those appeals the Washing
ton organs Of the administration
denied "tilat there was any pressure
which honest men, Shout regret.
President Van Buren, was credited
with saying that those who traded
on borrowed money ought TO fail.
The Hon. Samuel Beardspy, of
Oneida in q Congressional speech. ex-
claimed: ''perish commerce, perish
credit, perish all. rather than take
one backward step.
The Wings accepted the issue and
carried the country by stor'a, electing
Harrison President. lie died, Taylor
vetoed the banl, act. and the money
dealers soon gained the ascendency.
anG have Kept 1t. excepting Ter short
periods, ever since. Weed thinks the
Republican party is now on the eve OF
dissolution, and that the rock on which
the party is deliberately Nrecking
itself is hard money.
