half a dozen or more pictures on the walls

THE LITTLE PETs.-The Withdrawal OF
the public mind from many matters that
engaged it enables it to direct itself to other
sources OF interest and concern. Amongst
these. latter let US not forget our "little
pets" the squirrels. They have passed
through severe winter and had a hard
time, The benevolent contributors TO their
wants kept them pretty well supplied; but
as summer has come on they find their re-
sponsibiIieies increased, and there can be no
doubt that the same sympathy which carried
them with their wants through the winter
will support them through the summer
campaign. Every season has its peculiar
interest in the life aud economy OF the ami
mails OF field and forest.
.Little Bunnie" has his winsome ways
now that are charming. There are the rich
foliage and the green sward upon the Square
that give pleasant relief to the pictures he
makes as~he trips from tree tree and
bough to bough, proceeding with his inter-
viewings amongst bis ,fellow-citizens, and
conducting the household economy OF his
"eievated'' family life. They cannot fail
to afford infinite amusement, not without
good moral instruction, especially to tie lit
tie children OF city society. and it is but a
poor boon that Bunuie asks for the pleasure
he atfords-viz., a pecan, or tlbert, or
sheilbark now and then.

work OF bis master, Malone. lie us piauSl-
BILE in bis efforts to make the worse appear

doctrines upon debt-payiDg which, II they
prevail. will. unsettle the public morals and
do more harm to the cause or honesty and
religion than all the sermons be can preach
IN Sunday will. ever scoupteract. We do
not question Mr.. MasseY's right to make
noliticai speeches because he is q preacher,
but we do say that bis service OF Malone
and his Tepudiating doctrines, bis willing
and ready zeal in promoting the schemes Of
the most selfish and designing public man
in Virginia, bring the blush to the cheek Of
true friends OF religion. A minister Of
Christ the advocate OF reputation OF hon.

volunteering for the services of demas
and addressing al captandum arguments to
crowds to induce them to throw off sacred
obligations is rot pretty spectacle.
Thoughtiess people may for little while be

veteran trickster and schener. 49,. !.

THE WORK OF REDEEMING SUBSIDIARY
Com CoAMENCED.-Hon George Eyster,
United States treasurer in this city, began
this morning to receive subsidiary silver
coin for exchange, pursuant to an act OF
Congress recently passed requiring them to
beredeemed in laWfulmoDey. The Depart
ment requires the fractional silver coins to
be put up by denominations In total sums OF
$50 or muliiples thereof, each package being
marked with the amount 1t contains. The
Treasurer expects 20 receive from banks,
bankers, trust companies, and others, who
have this week so, advised him, large
quantities OF fractional silver coin,
subject to count, the ascertained
value 10 be paid upon the surrender OF the
receipt given when the coin is deposited.
The moneyed institutions of Philadelphia
baYe alarge quantity OF small coin, and it is
estimated that 100000 ofithese coins will
be presented at once. The labor Of count
ing the millions OF halves, quarters, dimes.
halle dimes, and three-cent jpieces, included
IN this sum, will be very great and consid-
erably protracted, especially as the Trea~u-
rer's staff of clerks is limited. There are
1915, 900 of subsidiary silver coins In the
SUBJ Treasury, and by the close OF next
week it will contain over 4.000,O00 new
standard silver Observation-Disclosures -B9I-
