According to the researches of DR.
Brush, the milk of ruminants, when
swallowed, is coagulated by the acids of
the stomach into hard mass. Hence
calves, lambs, etc., which have taken
no food but the milk of their mothers,
always chew the cud. Animals which
do not ruminate consequently find a
difficulty in digesting the milk of
ruminant species. On the other hand,
human milk, and that of mares, asses
and other non-ruminant animals, coagu-
lates into small granular or flocculent
masses, which are easily digested.

The National Bank

When the suspension of the old
State banks, at the beginning of the
war of Rebellion, proved that they
we're wholly inadequate to furnish 8
safe and stable medium Of exchange,
the remedy was an issue of legal ten
der greenbacks. The constitutional
ty Of this was called into question,
aud the measure received the active
and bitter opposition OF the banking
Interests of the United States.
In order to meet the demand foi
banks aGzissne, secretaty Chase de-
vised tReSNatiqnal, banking system.
The oppOsiti9ft5,thissystem on the
part of capitah4 was soon silenced'
and these banks v aze established rap
idly in fery mort I'm State.
Admirers of this system have early
/, and late proclaimed it to be the be-
the world has ever seen, and that th'
monetary interests of the people wer'
safer in keeping Of the National bank,
than in the hands Of Congress. We
have got fused to hearing about the
patriotism and self sacrificing devo
tion of these banks to the interest OF
the people, and how they can be sat,
" trusted with regulating the volume
Of the currency.
On the other hand, Greenbackers
have argued that the National banks
besides being costly and granted priv
ileges not contemplated by the Con-
stitution, are sure to use their power
not to protect the financial interests OF
the masses, but to enrich the bankers.
We have shown that these banks are
sure to create financial panic when
II suits their own interests to do so.
The agitation of the Refunding bill
has given these banks an opportunity
to prove our arguments. Our read
ers will remember that the bill il
question provides, not only for bonds
bearing a low rate OF interest, bu
makes sure that the largest bond own
ing class,-the banks-shall exchange
the high rascof interest bonds which
they now hold, tor the 81 per cent
1t may be that this provision of th'
bill was on the account of the extreme
reluctance of the banks in ::presentine
for refunding the called bonds in 1879
The section of the Refunding bill
relating to the banks, we give in an
other column. Pending its passage
the banks began to withdraw theil
circulation, in few days withdrawing
over s20,000.000. There can be nj
doubt that this action of the bank
was to create such panic and business
depression, as to compel Congress t.
amend the obnoxious section. Tbey
nearly succeeded, and no thanks ar,
due them that they failed. What
ever their motive may have been, i
is fairly proved that their claims o
patriotism is false; that it is not safi
to entrust to them the issue of cir
culating medium, or to regulate it
volume.
The business interests of this countr,
will be safe only when our law maker
shall have learned that the issurane
of a circulating medium belongs t
the Government alone, and shoul'
never be delegated to any corporation
whatever.

Act on ROberts0n's Nom.
inattOn.

Washington, Tt is intimated
to-day that the President has con-
Guided not to send in any more
nominations, or, at all events, none
but few unimportant ones, until
the Senate shall have taken action
on the New York relationship mat
ter. 1t is said, by thus Withholding
nominations for the Senate to act
upon, the republican caucus pro-
gramme for diSpOSing of the uncOn-
tested cases only will sooner he ex-
hausted, and the Senate will thereby
be confronted with the Robertson
case at an earlier day than if he
continues to furnish supplies Of So
called Objectionable nominations.
1t is also reported on good authority
that the President will not return to
the Senate the nomination of Tyler;
for collector of customs at Buffalo,
even if Robertson be confirmed, and
the rest of the withdrawn nOmina-
lions will be sent in again. This
gentleman, like his Baltimore name
sake, is involved, it is alleged, in a
social scandal, and many petitions
for a withdrawal of his nomination
had been received by the President
some time before, and the other
New York nominations were with
drawn together.

THE ELEoTROPHONE.
WhIsperIngs Heard from
Calais TO Dover.

Paris, IA correspondent sends
the following account Of the latest
scientific sensation. A remarkably
interesting experiment has just been
made at Calais and Dover, between
which places conversation has been
kept up UiUG 0Oce by means of a
new kind of telephone, which has
been patented under the name of
electrophOne. Not only were words
whispered into the apparatus at
Calais distinctly heard at Dover and
of course Cice CeTSG, but the listener
at one end was perfectly well able
to distinguish by the mere tones of
voice the person who was speaking
at the other end. 1t should be OBJ
served that while the human voice
was being transmitted through one
of the wires, the others were
being employed for the transmission
of ordinary Geographic messages.
Moreover, the experiments were
conducted between the hours of 10
and 4, that is, in the busiest part of
the day, when wires are in unceas-
ing requisition. The voice of the
speaker was distinctly heard as soon
as the wires were joined to the APP
paratus, and conversations were car
ried on without interruption in the
presence of competent spectators.
Experiments with the same appara-
tus were then continued with the
same results, and in the midst of
conversation, produced by stimuli
taneous working of several ma
chimes at the London terminal sta
ton, the voice of the speaker was
heard as plainly as though he had
been in the same room. There can
no longer be any doubt that it is per-
fectly practicable to converse across,
or rather under, the sea by means of
any submarine cable. The inventor
maintains it is just as easy to talk
across the Atlantic as from one
room to another.

OATHs AND AFFIRMATIoEs.

The trouble that the British Par.
lament is making for Brsdlsugh
seems nonsensicsl in this age of
enlightenment. when people look at
things intelligeatly and consider
matters without superstition. Brad
laugh was elected to the House of
Commons, and upon presenting him
self at the speakers desk he objected
10 taking the oath, because be did
not believe in q God, or at least 10
the God OF Christianity and the
British Parliament. He offered to
make affirmation that be would faith
fully and to the best OF his ability
perform the duties of a member. but
with bis peculiar ideas it seemed
foolish to add to his promise to do
right, "S'elp me God" A rule OF
the house required the taking of the
oath, however, and Brsdlsugh's re-
fussl to comply with 1t was bar to
his admission. He then proposed to
20 through with Whist he considered
3 childish mummery. end presenting
himself 8 second time declared his
readiness to swear after the Christian
fashion. This was objected to by his
political opponents on the ground
that BrAdlsugh Was q Well-knoWn
and pronounced inddel, aBd tie oath
would therefore have no binding
effect upon his conscience. The OBJ
lection was held good, and alter kick
ing up disturbance and being iorci
bly, elected from the house, the infdel
made up his mind that it was mo
CO." The seat was declared vacant,
snd a new election ordered. Brad
laugh again became a candidate, and
once more was returned. His offer
to subscribe the oath was second
time refused ,snd he Was again forcibly
put out of the hall. Now govern
ment ia trying to open a path BY
which the infidel may occupy the
seat 10 which be is entitled. It
is proposed to permit members TO
make oath or affirmation. IS they
prefer, but this proposition is objected
to by intelligent men. The whole
business is childish. for neither an
oath nor affirmation can or will make
q member do right II be wants to do
wrong, Oaths in courts even have
no effect upon those who sWesr, SO far
g their sacred character is concerned. |

An advertisement IN the Chicago papers
gives notice that one of the Ward Land
League clubs wants "a few choice spirits

An announcement of that character is a
shame and disgrace to all concerned; TO
the club that sent it out; to the cause they
represent; to the people whom shat cause
strives to benefit, and to the United States,
should it permit such nefarious plots to be
consummated within its borders. Such
announcements, as the public expressions
of praise over the death Of the Gar are
dangerous even in this country. There is
no logical difference between the killing of
the monarch that Expresses you. and the
man who either in public capacity or priv
ate life. has injured you: and it seems as
if we must perforce in this country, put
some gag on the foreign refugees who
would promalgate such dangerous doc
frinea
