Literary PIunierers.

Perhaps every club in New York is
plundered of its newsnaners- mara
zines, and even books by its own mem
bers. The offense is usually mad
Vertent, though sometimes intentional.
a highly distinguished public man
was seen riding down town one dav
with a newspaper in his hand bearing
the conspicuous stamp of the New
York club. a man of wealth was ex.
PeIled from fashionable club for per-
sistently carrying Off a notoriously dull
evening paper Several clubs usually
nave posted announcements that one
periodical or another is missing. The
cutting OF newspaper files is a common
offense in many clubs.

A National Question.

If left to the vote of the people,
silver would be given the right OF
free coinage in the Uaited States
mints, just as gold has the right Of
free coinage in the mints. 1t is only
a question of time when silver will
be restored to its former position as
money. While the legislation Of
gold bond spectators and investors,
may for time discount it; the ne
cessities of coming days will again
bring it forward to its true posi- ton
as a medium of exchange, therefor,
the clustering threat of the people
of the silver mining states in the
west, that they vii! organize a Sc
cessiou movement, ana with Mexico
organic a new government is the
widest folly. = would be q good
thing if the next republican and dem
Ocratic national pminating conven-
tions wolld submit the question Of
the image Of silver to a vote of the
people. It is a National question.

hunger, destitusion, and starvation.
Why have the masses fallen victim
to the few, Why this shrinkage in
in currency, why this unsettled con
dition of our national affairs, Whv
this depression among farmers, and
why frsucial revolutions in business
circles generally, ere questions,
which we rs parents should be
able to solve, aud understand. So
we can intelligsntly teach them to
our youth l. is our duty as parents
to study the real problems of life, so
that We may be able to take a proper
view, from a moral, or social stand
point, as to a proper culturs of our
youth, in the Home, and from a
sacred or religious standpoint, as TO
the welfare and prosperity Of the
Church, and from a national and in-
ternational standpoint, as to The
blessed privileges this grand and
glorious government holds out to
her PEOPLE as nation. The great
PrOblsm is solved, and the great
question is settled, when we are IN
possession of oar mental, and physi'
cal powers, to exercise them properly
which will bring comfort to the
Home, Joy and consolation to the
Church, aud peach. union, and har-
mony to the Nation. Because it Is
the violation OF the great principal
Of life, which brings sorrow and DIS
cord to the Home. 1t is the violation
of tue great principles of life, which
destroys the unity and peace OF the
Church 1t is the violation of the
great principles of life, which canses
disloyslty in our statesmen, which all
have their origin in the training of
our youth.
