boston Herald.

A touching illustration Of the strength of
flial affection il, afforded by the case of Mr..
Patrick McKernan, a tough customer of San
dusky, O., who was SO afflicted at the death OF
his father that he spent the last SI4 he had in
the world to buy a modest tombstone for the
old mans grave. If it BIO taken into considera-
ton that he was not only suffering mentally in
consequence of his recent bereavement, but
that he was actually starving for whisky,
charitable persons will not judge him too
harshly for selling the slab two days later at
reduction of 80 per cent. on the original cost.

"A Grand Feature

OF Hoods Sarsaparilla is that while it puri-
fees the blood and sends it coursing through
the veins full of richness and health, it also
imparts new life and vigor to every function
OF the body. Hence the expression so often
heard: Hoods Sarsaparilla made new per-
son of me-" 1t entirely overcomes that tired

where other medicines fail to do any good.

TOO MUCH GOLD TUEx.

Gold men who are now warning sc

ing opportune remarks on the financial
situation in 1851. All should read IT.:
"The quantity Of gold thrown into

rapid increase and depreciation Of gold,
has discontinued the use of it az money,
and deprived it Of the character Of legal
tender. Belgium has ceased to coin it,
and an effort has been made in France to
withdraw its monetary value from it.
The amount Of silver required for the
currency Of Holland and Belgium is not
great, and will not seriously affect the
market Of the world. France has

were to be excluded from the circulation
of that nation, the demand for silver
would increase, there, ut least, thirty

movement is suggestive of what will be

would be the beginning Of gold as manu-

Postgraduate Medical School, in East

Much discussion has succeeded the
death of Gen. Hancock among promi-
nent men and military officers. The
fact seems strange one to all that ne
should have died a poor man, with an
income of seven thousand five hundred
dollars a wear; with also allowances in
the way of rations, etc. and with a wife
possessed, at her fathers death, of an in
dependent income. There seems to the
world at large some strange freak OF tor
tune. whereby an honored wife becomes
the beneficiary ofpublic contributions and
this, too, so soon after her widowhood.
That this delicate and painful topic has
had full and free discussion in the public
prints, it is needless to say, That this
discussion has resulted in the knowledge,
brought for the first time to the public
notice. of the extreme CareleSsneSS of
some OF our government olllClalS, DIS re-
CARDS the purses of their representatives,
many have learned, 1t is now stated as
a fact that General Hancock was in
structed by his superiors to entertain
government guests at the celebration OF
the battle Of Yorktown That he did so,
that he spent the sum of eight thousand
dollars from his own purse, and that,
with strange inconsistency, the govern
ment refused to reimburse him, leaving
the entire cost Of entertainment to be met
from General Hancock's own estate.
Certainly Congress should consider this
matter, and return to the widow OF 50
brave soldier the amount which surely
stands in the light Of a debt, for which
our government is answerable.

There is no doubt that the Legislature
will order an enquiry into the whole con-
duct of the prison, and take steps to secure
the impeachment Of the Keeper. The
movement must originate in the Assembly.

they present the charges to the Senate, and
the Keeper is rut OIL trial in that body. "A
two-thirds vote is nesded to impeach and
remove him. A purely party division in
the Senate will not, therefore. secure his
removal and he win stand the chance,
