HJ- \ LApY's EXPLANArIoN.-A lady
says: we read great deal about the
extravaganza of wives, and of girls mar
rying without knowing how to cook or
take care of family. | should like to
ask who is 10 blame for this state of
affairs? Girls will be girls, and it will
be useless TO try to make women OF
them until they are old enough. If
Young men insist upon marrying girls
before they are hardly out of school,
before they are old enough to assume
the responsibility Of motherhood, they
must abide the consequences. The girls
don't propose to the young men; neither
do they urge an early marriage; it is
the young men that do this; and many
young girl has been coaxed into mar
rage, when she felt she was too young,
by the same young man who will, after
marriage, fret because his child-wife
cant cook as his mother did

WEST VIRGINIA.

NO state IN the OulOH Oueio SpSh ih
ducements to migrants as West Vir'
ginia. Some of the western States
possess greater advantages for grain
raising purposes alone; but for fertile
soil, salubrious climate and her immense
forest and mineral wealth together with
the great advantage of close proximity
10 the seaboard, affording such cheaper
transportation to all the great markets
of the world, West Virginia surpasses
them all. Al important consideration
to the migration from the North is that
it lies where thirty or forty hours ride
will bring its citizens to any OF the
principal cities of the Union. If he
goes to the far West he is cut off from
his camp aud base of supplies. Should
he gel "busted, as they say, he cannot
return if he would. But in West Nir-
sipia he eau in any emergency take TO
his legs ana be back TO his old home
before he has half worn out stout pair
OF brogans.
Until within a few years West Nir-
ginia was an integral part of the Old
Dominion; it is, therefore, essentially a
new State, and this should be remem-
bered in any estimate that is made of
its possible future progress. Its past is
no cri:erian by which to judge Of what
may be It's coming prosperity; for 1t has
10 past. 1t has been completely shut
out from the intercourse with the COM
mercial world, and has wanted almost
every condition requisite to full and
proper development. Its population
has been sparse aud of "sparse" char
acter. 1t has been poor and It's people
have not given the attention to any
special Lrauch reproduction.
It was said by Buckle in his "Civili-
cation in England" that "there is no
instance in history ofany country being
civilized by its own efforts, unless it
possessed by one of those continents
(climate or soiD III very favorable
form" In Asia civilization has been
confined TO that vast tract where rich
and alluvial sci has secured to man
that wealth without some share ofwhich
10 intellectual progress can begin. 1t
NAV be said that soil that will pro-
duce one crop well is not SO valuable
as a soil that will produce dozen. Nor
can a State which produces only one
crop be as prosperous as one that pro-
duces u diversity.
West Virginia combines richness
of soil and diversity Of climate and con-
sequent capacity TO produce variety
of crops excelled by no country in the
world.
With an elevation Of from 500 to
1000 feet above the sea, its climate is
the finest and most desirable. And
these are only few of the inducements
we mention 10 inviting people to come
TO our State.

rg- THE INFLUX or GoLD.-Hon.
Horatio n. Burchard, director of the
mint, states that the irnportations of coin
and bullion into the United States dur
ing the last three months have amount
ed to S34,3l2,745, and that IS, 100000
are now on the way, making an aggre-
gate of about s40,000,0O0 for three
months, or at the rate of 100000
per annum. Mr.. Burchard thinks that
this influx will continue for at least six
or seven months. 1t must be remem-
bered also that the total annual pro-
duets of our mines, about s100,0OO,OOO
are retained in the country and go TO
swell the volume of our circulating me-
dunn and enhance prices. This inflow
of the precious metal may for time be
productive of some advantages, but is
liable to become a source OF great dan
ger. Redundancy of money always has
a tendency to promote and encourage
speculation. 1t expands prices, aud
every one is naturally disposed
to buy upon a 'rising market,
because Of the prospect offered
of selling again at all advance.
This not only tends to give fictitious
values TO all sorts of commodities, but
also to encourage men in business TO
strain their credit to the utmost in or
der TO widen the field OF their opera
tons. In view Of all these facts, and of
the danger of what may become "new
era of wild and crazy speculation" it is
suggested that Congress might inter
fere 10 convert the danger into tri-
umph by retiring the greenbacks and
substituting gold in their place, as be-
fore Congress meets there will be gold
enough in the country TO make it easy
for all the national banks TO replace
their greenLack reserves with specie
reserves and to fill the vacuum i'll the
general circulation which would be
caused by the full and final retirement
of the legal-tender notes" The plea Of
injury to contraction, which has been
so persistenly held up against this
change, has no longer any terrors.
