Themselves.

| Last evening the rooms of the Howard AS
sociation were the scene Of as pleasant gath
ering as has for many days been assembled
| together. The call was made for the meeting
in very quiet way, and the Assistant Secre-
tary, Capt. W. II. Beanham, was requested to
be present at 7:3O o'clock. There was full
attendance of the Howards present, there
being at roll call President J. H. Vandegrtf,
Vice President F. n Ogden, and members ?.

Col Vinet, Capt. Legendre, T. r. Southmayd,
&. A. Pike, Dr. Jno Pike, r. Generally, Jules
Aldige, and Messrs. Leverich, Whitney,
Baque and Coos.
After an appropriate opening address from
Vice President Ogden, Mr.. w. Ii. Beanham
was called forward and in terms COM
mensurate with the services Of that gentle
man during our epidemic, he read the follow
ing resolution of the Towards:

After Gen. Ogden had read the resolutions,
he drew forth beautiful gold medal studded
with brilIlants, and in his usual happy style
presented it to Mr.. Beanham as d personal
testimonial Of the members OF the Howards'

It is unnecessary to say that Capt. Beam

took some time before he could find voice
with which to respond to the complimentary
remarks.
The evening ended. however, with the pop
ping of corks and many sentiments.

IF the newspapers and orators who are be-
Wailing the disasters brought upon the cOun-

years, they will see that it has been in worse
positions than it is to-day. Five years ago q
great financial panic fell upon the country
Thousands OF dollars were swept away in q
the strongest sank out OF sight, leaving
thOusads OF creditors penniless, and great
disaster fell upon all branches Of trade. The
country had merged from war which had
engendered great speculation. When the
crash came, the cardboard houses that that
war had built tumbled over at once Natu-
raj recovery was slow, but in two years
there was Improvement that has been steady
since. This is denied in the face OF
clear facts, and the critics OF the government
assume that the present condition OF the
country was never known before They for
get or do not know anything Of the CONNER

recovery fer seven years. In 1842 United
States and State securities sold at a great
discount, which after 1843 went to and above
par. January /, 1842, six States failed to pay
interest on their bonds. The national gov
vernment, unable to borrow, money, had TO

par. In one year the assessments on real es-
tate in this city were $4,000, 900, but they fell

witnessed during the last panic. Securities
have not suffered to any such extent; the

How to Lock Young.

Lovely woman, if thou woudst always be
lovely, listen to the counsel of the Comtesse
de Bassanvile in the Almandch du Suuoir-
Tiwe. "When you are past twenty-five" she
says, "never let more than five or six hours
pass without closing your eyes for short
time-say ten minutes; not necessarily t.,
sleep, but to repose the muscles of the eyes -
Evrry movement and play of the face neces-
sariy tends to tax these muscles-whether it
be smile or the expression of surprise or of
fixed action. The closing Of the eyelds at in
tervals is therefore recon- meDded as q beauty
rest" The muscles, reposed, lose their ten
dency to that nervous contraction which
translates itself into wrinkles.

Only Three Deaths and NO New Case Hae
ported at the Health office.

The epidemic has run its course and no
fears can now be entertained of any outbreak
of the epidemic. The death list and the roll OF
new cases have steadily decreased since a

and not single new case. However, many
old cases which the physicians had neglected,
through want Of time. to report previously are
now being recorded, but as a matter of course
cannot count In the estimate at the present
