An item appeared in this raper few
days ago from which it might sppear that
the BAzoo was endeavoring to exhibit q
foolish prejudice against the Jews of Soda

referred to was thoughtlessly inserted by a

Prosperity and Speculation.

A special dispatch from Washington,
to the Baltimore SIN, dated May 18th,
says that the continually increasing rev.
enues of the government and other signs,
as far as they can be judged, indicate
That the season of this year will be fully
as prosperous il not more so than the
past year, and all persons engaged in
regular and legitimate trade or business
of any kind have good reason to feel
happy and contcnted in anticipation of
what is before them. Money is actually
in such abundance that it may be called
a drug on the market. The banks have
more than they know what to do with,
unless they cast prudence to the winds.
The reserves held by the banks of the
four principal Atlantic cities are more
than $40, 100000 above the amount
held at this time last year, and the
amount will be largely increased in
short time. The earnings of the rail
roads are enormous, trade in every de-
partmcnt is healthy, and the future looks
indeed bright and promising But there
is one danger which cannot be too closely
watched and too carefully guarded
agalnst-,the danger of speculation, ad-
ventnring money in that which has no
solid or intrinsic value The extraor-
dinarily low rates of interest which pre-
walls for all securities that are of recog-
nlzed worth has the tendency to tempt
even those who are naturally cautious
and conservative to stray from the safe
paths Legitimate venture. The crowds
which hourly surround the stock indica-
tors here are but sample of the eager.
restless throngs who are, in all the
money centres of the country, following
the treacherous will-o'-the -wisp, which
bcckons to riches, shadowy and unreal
Here is whore the danger comes Spec
ulation is actually top-hoavy, and reac-
ton, violent and widespread, must be
anticipated 1t may not and most prob
ably will not come for months. Prices
of speculative and worthless, as well as
valuable securities, are quite likely to 90
even higher than they are now, but
rapid and disastrous decline is sure to
follow sooner or later, aud the slaughter
OF the innocents will be terrific.

The season is here at last when the
adventurous small boy thinks he can
make experiments with the sluggish wasp
that he finds creeping on window sash
in the garnet He is not wholly igno-
rant of the foibles of the insect, but he
has heard the saying that "wasps won't
sting till the June birds sing" II is a
great comfort to know this. II gives
him poor idea of wasp and encour-
ages him to insult it. Accordingly he
removes il from the window sash, places
it on the palm and tickes it defianily
under the ribs. Later on two strong
women are holding that boys hand while
the anxious mother is exploring his palm
with needle and bis little heels are
churning holes in the nursery floor.
Thus is childish faith in the truth Of
cherished sayings shattered this is the
first idol Of our lives broken and the first
lesson of skepticism taught

A Word for the Mother-in-Law.

Are there then no estinIable mothers
with married daughters? The mother.
in-law is not responsible for her position,
probably docs not admire it. Yet she
has been the subject of countless stories.
myriads of offensive iests, and quantities
of sarcastic rhymes. Into all of these
has entered an element of bitterness
which does not appear in the gibes that
are hurled at the widow and spinster.
Malice is the inspiration of the assault
upon the mother-in-law. Perhaps it is
savagery born of sense of detected
guilt-which has been hidden from the
too-coniiding wife, but detected promptly
by the penetrating eye Of the mother-in-
law. She is not blinded by love for th
man, and to perfect clearness of vision
she adds an experience which is as use
full as second-sight in enabling her to
see to the bottom of things. Yet if she
be wise she will not give her daughter
the benefit Of her experience, and allow
her to enjoy fools paradise as long as
possible. A good mother-in-law is really
well-spring of pleasure to properly
conducted husband. She is assidious in
taking cpre of the baby, and the service
ableness of her knowledge concerning
the most effective methods of carrying
the infant through critical periods, the
efficiency with which she dispenscs par
agorlc, measures out ipecac, and COM
pounds plasters, fills the minds of Just
men with sentiments of admiration and
thankfulness. Give the mother-in-law
her due. It has been withheld from her
long enough.

AL the newspapers Of the country are
tcemlng with spccuIations concerning the
Eads' ship canal scheme; but few Of them
seem to exactly understand what Captain
Eads asks Of the government and what he
proposes to give in return for its assistance.
He has seen fit, therefore, to write long
letter to a New York paper in which he
seeks to set himself right
before the people and expresses
the conviction that his proposition needs
only to be thoroughly understood IN order
to meet with general favor, both from con
gress and the people OF the United States.
What he offers to do for the government
if il grants him what he asks is briet,
told in the following extract from his let
ter: "First--To transport the war vessels,
troops, property and mails of the United
States free Second-To give to congress
