Comptroller Of the Currency has demonstrated
that the three per cents will be more profitable

Of this fact, there is no good rrason 10 sup

OF course, those banks III are short in their

This will amount 10 less than So, coo, 900.
But the Treasury Is armed against any at

possible for all The banks TO get all their notes
together and bring them into the Treasury
thing which will not happen--they could
not produce a financial or ash. The $500, OOO,-
900 of Treasury cert icates and the $50, OOO,-
900 of specie reserve authorized to be used for

leave surplus, 10 say nothing Of the surplus
revenue which may be paid ont for bonds
In few days the National banks will see
that they have nothing 10 do but to accept The
situation, and when This idea gets possession
OF their managerial minds the excitement will
die out. The work of refunding will 60 on
smoothly and successfully, and those who
have predicted disaster will wonder what it
was that created theirsense of alarm.
The Refunding bill lies upon the Speakers
table in the house. 1t is the opinion of a ma

fourth of one per cent. only was appropriated

Mr.. Editor VIII you please kindly AL
low me space in your paper to say few words
in relation TO the sleighing accident spoken of
by your correspondent "Tattler," in last
weeks SENTINEL2
On Sunday morning, Feb. 9Th, sleigbing
being then in order, a party of two gentlemen
and lady started to church al GAINESVILLE, in
Il sleigh. Before proceeding far on the way
they overlook two young gentlemen in a sleigh
drawn by colt only se0en gears old, travelling
at quite slow pace. The party Of three being
apprehensive that they might be late for
church, wished to travel more brskly, and
suggested TO the two young gentlemen that
they either increase their speed or give the
road, neither of which would they do, but by
adrOit mannuvering frustrated severa! at
tempts to pass them that were made during
mile of travel behind them. The young gen =
tlemen appeared 10 greatly enjov the success
of their man@uvering. A favorable portion
Of road at length presenting itself, the two
gentlemen were successfully passed, and not
until the party who passed them were well
ahead and in the track did the kicking take
place, which was mentioned by "Tattler"
The party who passed the young gentlemen
regret MS much as any one can, the Occurrence
of the accident but do pot feel that they are
IN any way accountable for ii, for had the
Young gentlemen given an inlimation that
there was any risk Of trouble being caused by
the passing The purpose TO do so would have
been cheerfuly relnqrished.
Your correspondent "Tattler" seems to be
proficient in his chosen calling Of tatiing
as also an adept in mule lore, and it is not
doubted that he could triumphantly carry off
against any and all competition the number

American Farmer:

Hon. C. S. Reed, NJ p, who was.
sent over to this country by the En-
glish government year Or two since-
to report American agriculture, said
a few days ago before the London
Farmers Club that American agri-
culturists get up earlier, are better
educated, breed their stock more
scientiGcly, use more machinery, and
generally bring more brains to bear
upon their work than the English
farmers. Mr.. Read should have
added tha: most every farmer in this
country owns the land he works, and
has no landlord to pay half of his
hard earnings for the rent Of the
farm. If the English farmers en-
joyed the same privilege they would
soon lie able to be better educated,
breed better stock, work more scien-
titically, use more machinery and
bring more brains to bear upon their
work, because they would not have to
divide their earnings, and would have
money so that they could afford all Of
these things.

To Prevent Diphtheria,

To prevent diphtheria. and finally
exterminate it, every man, women
and child throughout our land and
the world should be brought to obey
the laws of life and health. Parents
should regularly feed, properly clothe
and duly restrain all children before
they come to the years of understand
ing and accountability. This alone
would do much. \ late prominent
Of Paris estimates that 3,
900 children had died in that city,
during the thirty years of his prac-
tice there, from short sleeves, short
pants, and other kindred imprudence
in the dressing Of children. And I
am fully convinced that so large q
portion are sacra6ced, in towns at
least, in this country from the same
cause-all fora wicked fashion. And
from careful observation in this
country and abroad, I aua confident
that at least as many more are car
ried off by improper food and irregu-
larity in. taking it; together with
poisonous candies, and other ,ln-
wholesome ana indigcstible trash that
no child or other person should cat.

Now the TuTnips.

The time of the year has come
when the farmers should be thinking
of putting their turnip seed into the
ground. In this climate they should
be sowed by the 25th of this month.
though many farmers do not think it
necessary to do 50 until the first week
in July. The soil should be mellow,
free from Jumps, and free, too, from
weeds. The Rutabagas and the
Swedish turnips should be sowed be-
fore the common white or English,
because it requires longer time for
them to reach maturity. We can
hardly imagine how farmer that
has stock can get along to a good adj
vantage without raising good lot Of
turnips to feed them daring the win
ter. They are raised much more
readily than potatoes; cattle never

save it from dying. If such is the
fact, /. little wholesome punishment
would not be amiss.
see by the Fergus Falls Journal,
that our county Sheriff gets on his
ear little at some remarks in my
last letter to your paper, respecting
the extortionate charges Of the depu.
ty tax collector. 1t appears he is
anxious to be relieved of all blame
in the matter, and indulges in few
harmless names, etc. 1t is the usual
custom in most counties, for the
county treasurer to appoint the sheriff
as his deputy, but we would humbly
beg friend Bartleson's pardon fol
ever supposlng that he would start
out on any such expedition, or in fact
on any expedition where there is the
remotest chance of his getting hurt.
But the fact still remains that such
extortionate charges were made, we
since learn in seven instances in our
town alone, making Il fee OF $500
for little over days work, wrung
out of our poorest settlers. We re-
peat it is shame, and would like the
opinion of our county Attorney, us to
whether such charges are legal. The
Statutes provide that treasurers fees
shall Re the same as are allowed to
constables, and we doubt if Judge
McKclvey would allow any such fees
to either constable, sheriff OF treas.
urer.
