"There is indeed a convenience in paper: it's easy transmission from one place to another. But this may he mainly supplied hy bills of EN- change, SO as to prevent any great displacement of actual coin. Two places trading together balance their dealings, for the most part by their mutual supplies. and the dehtor in dividuals of either may, instead of cash. remit the bills of those who are creditors in the same dealings. or may obtain them through some third place with which both have dealings. The cases would he rare where such bills could not be obtained cihtcr di- rectly or circuitously, and too unim- pOrtant to the nation to overweight the train of evils flowing from paper circulation.

JEFFERSON ON PAPER MONEY.

II am sorry to see our loans begin at so exhorbitant an interest. And yet even at that you will soon be at the bottom of the loan bag. We are an agricultural nation. Such an one employs it's sparings in the pur- chase, or improvement of lands or stocks. The lendable money among them, is in the hands of executors and guardians. and that which the farm CT lays by till he has enough for the purchase in view. In such nation there is one and one only. resource for loans, sufficient to carry them through the expenses of war. that will always be sufficient, and in the power of an honest government, punctual in the preservation of its faith. The fund l mean is the mass of circulating coin. Every one knows, that although not literally, it is nearly true, that every paper dol lar emitted banishes a silver one from the circulation. A nation therefore, making its purchases and payments with bills fitted for circu- lation, thrusts and equal sum of coin out of circulation. ''-J efferson's works. Vol. VI, P. l39.

''ln this way. am not without hope, that this great, this sole re- source for loans in an agricultural country, might yet be recovered for the use of the nation during war, and if obtained in perpetuum, it would always be sufficient to carry us through any war; provided, that in the interval between war and war. all the outstanding paper should he called in, coin be permitted to flow in again, and to hold the field of cir culation until another war should re- quire its yielding place again to the national medium. ."-.Jefferson' s works, Vol. VI.

"The bankruptcies in London have re commenced with new force. There Is no saving where this fire will end, perhaps in the general conlagration of all their paper. Ifnot now, it must ere long. With only twenty millions of coin, and three oi four hundred millions of circulating paper, pub lie and private nothing is necessary but a general panic, produced either by failures, invasion, or any other cause, and the whole visionary fabric vaniShes into air and shows that paper is poverty, that it is only the ghost of money, and not money itself."- Jetlersons works.

The commercial lines between the
United States and Mexico are being
drawn more closely year by year
through connecting railways, says an
exchange. Within short time, more
than one-haf of the imports to Mexi-
co will be carried on over American
railways and no smaller proportion OF
the exports will pass over the same
roads. OF the total Mexican imports
this country already furnishes nearly
half, or little more than AZ per cent,
with valuation of over $45, 100000.
Great Britain sends 20 per cent,
France II per cent, and Germany 10.
The products of Mexico are of kinds
which do not or will not interfere or

Charles Reads and uis Characters.

or all modern authors probably tho
most singular in his mental attitude
toward the personages Of his romances was
Charles Reade. In speaking of the
characters he had drawn he always ap.
peared unconscious of their artificial orr.
gin, and referred to them as II their reality
were an established fact. lie did not
recognize any particular connection be-
tween them and himself l have re-
peatedly heard him discuss the idiosyncra.
sizes Of this or that member Of his ideal
family In precisely tho tone he would have
employed IL they had been independent OF
him in every sense. When u friend re-
marked upon what he supposed to be the
motives that impelled the heroine OF
''Grifiith Gaunt" to certain course OF
action, Reade exclaimed hastily and some
what warmly, ~ don't believe Kate
Gaunt ever thought OF such thing"
Then he became distracted, and n few
minutes after added "It doesn't seem
credible that Kate Gaunt could be infu-
enced In that way; but, after all, who can
tellY" Something was said to him about
the ingenuity Of one OF Mrs. Ryder's
schemes in the same novel. Yes"
answered Reade, ''wasnt it clcverp You
wouldn't imagine woman like Ryder up
to dOdgc of that sort. Ryder had more
brains than people gave her credit for. "
There was 10 apparent recollection that
her cleverness, whatever it might have
been, was his own invention. In Love
Me Little, Love Nc Long" 1t is related
that Lucy Fountain, when expecting to be
drowned by the upsetting of u pleasure
boat, whispered to David Dodd that If she
must die she would have something to say
to him just before they went down. Reade
was asked what IL was she intended to tell
him. II don't know" he replied, dream
lily; show should | know" And, n little
later, ''What do you think she meant to
sayp Nothing important, perhaps. All,
well, Dodd may know, she probably told
him some time There was not u par
ticle of afTectation In this. Reade was the
last man to attempt that kind of prctense,
and If he had attempted it he could no
more have succeeded than he could have
flown to the moon He was the cmbodl-
ment of intellectual candor.-Atlantlc

meth by name, paid visit to Tasmania,
and being much interested in it's indigo

varieties of the eucalyptus which flourish
in that island. His investigations brought
him into contact with u small black bee,

he carried it to Europe for the purpose of
having it analyzed, and of ascertaining
whether 1t possessed any special qualities
1t was carefully studied by NJ. Thomas

respiration, for it is anti-catarrhal; it is a

found eflicacious in overcoming obstinate

that the various preparations of eucalyp-
