The banks now hold $1,009500 III specie and
legal tenders more than they held at this date last
year. Yet the loans now are $3S, 800 greater
than they were then, and the deposits 36 800
greater. The consequence is that the reserve re-
Quired by the % per cent rule now is $9,O45125
more than was required year ago, and hence there
Is deficit OF $717,7OO against surplus then of
$7317 925, and the proportion of the total reserves
to the depos is is now 2479 per cent, against 27 40
at the same date in 1850.

WoMah's WORK.

I am glad to tell you that out of
all the toll and disappointments of
the summer just ended, haye risen
mp TO victory; that silence of
thought sin ce you have been away
has won for me triumph I read
something like this the other day
"There is no healthy thought with
out labor. and thohght makes the
labor happy" Perhaps this is the
way I have been able to climb up
higher. 1t came to me one morning
when / was making bread. l said to
myself: Here I am, compelled by
an irevita BILE necessity 70 make our
bread this summer. Why not con-
slider tia pleasant occupation, and
make it so by trying - see what
perfect bread can make?'' It seemed
Ike an inspiration-and the whole OF
life grew brighter. The sunshine
seemed flowing down through my
spirit into the white loayes; and now
Ibslievs my table is furnished with
better bread than ever before-apd
this truth, old as creation, seems just
now to have become so fully mine,
that I need not be the shrinking
slave of toll, but its regal master,
making whatever do yield me its
best fruits. You have been king of
your work so long, that may be you
will laugh at me for having lived SO
long without my crown, but am to
glad to have found it at all to be
entirely disconnected by your mer-
riment. Now, I wonder if right here
does not lie the "terrible wrong," or,
at least, some of it, of which the
women suffragists complain. The
wrongly educated woman thirks her
duties disgrace, and frets under
them, or shirks them if she can. She
sees man trinmphantly pursuing his
vocations, and thinks it is the kind
of work he does which makes him
grand and regnant: whereas, 1t is not
the kind of work ct all, but the way
in which and the spirit in which he
does it.-Mrs. Garfield to her hns-

If our collegespropose to fit young
men for journalism, they must bear
in mind that the journalists duty is
to write the history of the present,
not of the past, aud he must be
brought in contact with the age Of
stalwarts, and halfbreeds, and demo-
Gratis and not Of the homooisians and
the homoousians-with Conkling and
Garfield, and Tlldcn and John Kelly,
rather. than with Pericles and Cicero.
Greek is good and Latin is good,
and so are logarithrns and the calcu-
lus; but they are not useful to make
newspapers with. 1t may be said
that knowledge and training in any
direction are useful in whatever work
a man may undertake to do, and that
is no doubt so; but life is too short
for any one man to grasp the sum
total of human knowledge, and if any
one has journalism in view, he wants
to be put in training for that, and
not for law or theology or art or
natural science. and brevity should be
the most severe part of the discipline.

OUR CITY FARMERS.

If you desire to rank among
The publics pets and charmers,
You ought to join without delay
The club Of city farmers.
They never handle hoe or rake,
And never turn = furrow:
But in respect of theory
Their practice i quite thorough.
They know just when to NOW the corn,
And when to pick potatoes,
And when to graft the pumpkin trees,
And when to dig tomatoes.
They can instruct the farmers wife
Concerning bugs that plague plants,
In making souse of roasting ears
And Matching out her egg plant.
Quite learnedly they can describe
How cheese is got by churning:
But how the cows give buttermilk
Is quite beyond their learning.
They can discourse on breeding fish
To fill the wastes of ocean,
And still find time to air their thoughts
About perpetual motion.
OF farming life they are the soul,
The thinkers not the actors.
And harmlessly believe themselves
The peoples benefactors.
