VEUKTINE Is not a vile, nauseous compound, which sim ply purges the bowels, hut a safe, pleasant remedy which in sure to purify the blood and thereby reslore the health. VEGETINE Is now prescribed in ciutofl of Scrofula and oth er diseases of the blood, by many of the best j hysicians, owing to the great success in sor ing oil diseases of this nature, VEGETINE Does not deceive invalids into false hopes by purging and creating a fictitious appetite, but assists nature in clearing and purifying the whole system, leading the patient gradually to perfect health. VEGETINE Was looked upon as an experiment for some time by some of our best physicians, but these most incredulous in regard to its merit are now its most ardent friends and supporters. VEGETINE Instead of being a puffed-up medicine lias worked its way up to its- present astonishing success hy actual merit in curing all diseases of the blood, of whatever nature. VEGETINE Says a Boston physician ‘‘has no equal as a blood purifier.

I hold that Christian grace abounds B here charity is seen ; that when Wo olimb to heaven, ’tis on the rounds Of love’to men. I hold all e}se, named piety, A selfish scheme, a vniu pretense ; Whore fcontre is not, can there be Citcumferenoo f Tills I moraver hold, and daro Affirm where’er my rhyme may go, Whatever things be sweet or fair, Love makes them so. Whether it be the lullabies That charm to rest the nursling bird, Or that sweet confidence of sighs And blushes, made without a word. Whether the dazzling and the flush Of softly sumptuous garden bowers. Or by some cabin door or bush, Of ragged flowers. ’Tis not the wide phylactery, Nor stubborn fast, or stated prayers, That makes us saints; wo judge tho tree By what it bears. And when man can live apart From wo’-ks of theologic trust, I know the blood about his heart Is dry as dust. SILVER IS LAWFUL MONEY, A LETTER PROM THUItLOW WEED. [From the New York Tribune’] I have been a ‘looker on’ for several months during the discussiou in Con gress, and in the'press, of the silver ques tion. My merely superficial knowledge of finances leads to so much distrust that I approach the subject with much hesitation. Yet so strong are my intu itions that leading journalist*are mislead irig their readeis, that I have determined to break silence. The persistent effort to reject silver as an element seems to me so manifestly unwise that I desire to call attention to the fact which fnost of those who speak or write of the ques tion-have forgotten or choose to ignore. The Constitution of the United States confers on Congress the right to ‘coin money.’ and in a subsequent section pro hibits the States from coining money, or from making ‘anything but gold and sil ver coin a tender inpayment of debts.’ Gold ami stive; com is (ice men, met v toro, by the lundamental law a legal ten der in the payments of debts, and hence gold and silver become the specie cur. rency ot our country. -Every law of Congress anthoiiz.es the issue of bonds and notes, the proceeds from the sales of which were used to preserve the gov ernment and Union, provided that both the interest and principal of those obliga tions (amounting in the aggregate to nearly three thousand millions) should be paid ‘in coin,’ and fiinally on the 18th of March, 1869, when it was deemed important to solemnly assure the public creditots of the good faith of the govern ineut Congress passed a declaratory law, say-ing that. ‘The faith of the United States is sol oraly pledged to the payment in coin or its equivelant of all the obligations of the United States notes, and of all the interest-bearing obligations, except in cases where the law authorizing the isue of any such obligation has expiessly pro* vided that the same may be paid in law ful money, or in other currency than gold and silver. * * * And the United States also solemnly [ ledges its faith to make provision at the earliest practicable period for a redemption of the United States notes in coin.’ The Court of Appeals of the Slate of New York having decided that a con tract made before the passage of the le gal-tender act. payable expressly in ‘gold and silver coin, lawful liuouey of the United States,’ might be paid and saiise tied by a tender of United States note the case was taken to the Supreme Court of the TJ. S. at Washington, by whom the decision was reversed. Chief Justice Chase, in announcing the decision of the oourt, in February, 1869, said, ‘The ooin ed dollar was a pieoe of gold or silver of a certain degree of purity and weight. The note dollar was a promise to pay a coined dollar.’ By the Constitution of the United States, by the laws of Con gress authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to borrow three thousand mil lions, and by the language of the Su preme Court of the United States, ‘silver and go'd’ have been solemnly declared and affirmed to be the legal tender in the payment or debts. The distinction, therefore, between the values of silver and gold which has recently obtained is in (liiicgard of the conslitrtioual, legis lative and judicial authorities, and in view of the fact that throughout the commercial worid, silver has been for centuries, and is now more largely nsed than gold, this new revelation rests upon CONYERB, QA. t ATJGFkLST LO. iS76. I infinsic,J artificial, and arbitrary idea*, and acta. It might with tar better rea son, be claimed that gold should not be a legal lender, because unlike silver, it has never had an international circula tion. Even in England and France, di vided only by a narrow channel, tho English sovereign, with the Queen’s head on it, nud fho Napoleon, with the Emperor’s profile, circulate principally in their dominions, while the Spanish mill, ed dollar, the Mexican dollar, the French tranc and the English shilling hive a world-wide circulation* Nor has silver been the cuircncy ot modern fivi.izatiou ouly. It was a ‘legal tender, when ‘fine gold like ‘rubies' were only precious for a moment. The Jewish shekel was ot silver. Joseph was sold by bis brethren for twenty pieces of silver, and Judas, for the betrayal of ous Saviour, received thirty pioces of silver. As early as we have any knowledge of curreucy, silver was ils basis, aud was the medium of ex ebang for all commodities. It is claimed that the largely increased supply of silver from the American mines is affecting its value throughout the world. This resuj| when we were aug* meeting our public debt,was anticipated Our ability to pay both the principal and interest was based in part upon the vaL ue of mines then being developed in the Far West. And now that thest hopes are realized, shall wo voluntarily deprivo ourselves of a resource wln^willessen tially aid in re-establishing/and restoring the credit and prosperity cl the country? Congress, under authority derived from the constitution, inaugurated the coinage of silver and gold, fiixifig the value ot each. That authority remains. Con gress has the power, to day, as they had the day after the Cor stituliou of the United States was adopted to coin silver into meney, to fix its ■ alfcc, and todi clare it a legal tender. In this view of the question the discovery and develop ment of rich silver mines was providen tial. \\ hy, then, if Europeans depre ciale the abundance of American silver, shou'd we readily join in a temporalily popular cry against it? If it be just or wise or patriotic to unite in the effort to depreciate the imlue ct silve\ because our mines are too prolific, would, it not be HU IV Ullbt mill it/iuigll UUUI|UU‘B ill CT J down the price of our agricitlural pro ducts when our bountiful baVvesl en able us to export largely to Eftrope? I have insisted in former communications that a return to specie payments,'o de sirable in all respects, did not necessari ly require ‘contraction’ oi suffering. lie sumption is not cruel or relentless. It could have been made not only easy, but'. benefioient. This however required statesman ship. It was in the power of the administration and Congress, had they got themselves to the task dilgently and wisely ten years ago, to have accom plished resumption, without deranging, depressing, or disturbing any section, any class, or any interest. Bui, most unhappily, the statesmanship which the emergency demanded was locking. The administration and Congress have only been distinguished as ‘circumlocutionists. ’ The efforts at resumption, far, hove have been in the direction of ‘how not to do it,’ and finally when the proposed action of Congress on the silver question evinces a disposition to learn how to do it resistance comes from leading and in fluential journals. Silver has quietly taken the place of fiatft cnal currency. Our eyes and ears are again gladdened by the sight and chink of bright silver dimß, quarter and half-dollars. Had the advent of this precious currency been cheerfully accept ed by capitalists, bankers and journalists, resumption would have been more than half accomplished, while what remained to bo done would have been much more easily aohieved. But to return for a mo-, ment to the legal view of the question. The government agreed to pay its credit ors “in coin," i. e. silver or gold. The creditor lent his money upon thi? condi tion. Has either party a right |b impair lhe contract? If silver instead, of gold had appreciated, could the government for that reason have refused to pay its creditors in silver ? And is tb4 creditor, because we have more silver than was expected either by him or the' govern ment, at liberty refuse it? The govern ment should be held strictly to its obli gation, as ‘nominated in the bond.' But the creditor in demanding his ‘pound of flesh,’ may not, at bis peril, draw ’one drop of blood.’ Let the government pay all it owes, and all it agreed to pay to its creditors. I cannot, however, sympa thize with those who are so fastidiously watchful of the interests of the bond holders, for I have failed to in that c’asa of creditors, either at home or abroad, anything that entitles them to more consideration tint ths other and uxqcb larger class* who receive fm then labor depreciated paper. Tho torinei, by the forces which capital knows so well now to utilize, have been greatly favored. Tho large bondholders, for. eign aud domestic, paid less than par foi securities which now bear n high prem ium. This was ther privilige, but it does not give them, in justice or equity, thef,right to refuse silver and demand gold, because since the oontraot was en tered into tho manipulations }ot capital have depressed the former and apprecia ted the latter. Until this morning I have soon noth ing in our journals expressive of the views on this Subject which I have en tertained. The oommunieicatiou in to day’s Tribune over tho signature of *G.’ compresses the argument to a Uriel space Hut there is so truth and suoh clear and strong common sinso ccnr mending it to nttenlk r, that I hope it will be exteusively read. And what is still mhic enconragnrg, yonr own edito rial of today seems to authorize a hope that at leisl one loading journal may come to roe that there is two sides Aq the silver question. T. W.

Careless Hauidling of Children. I wish to enter a protest in tlitf name of all nervous persons and of the injured little ones against the reckless way in which many heedless persons express Rieir love for children, such as lifting thfin up by their heads, tossing and eatchiitgrthem in the air, carrying infiyiK on their hanfla-without suppiiUr-tt) tlieir hacks, and other wise endangering their limbs or senses. I have now in my mind the case of a man who was tendered a cripple tor life through his father‘B care lessness in lifting him by the ankles, while he was a small child, he (the lath er) having unfortunately lost his balance and turned the child's ankles in such a way that he was lame afterward. 'I wo different persons have told me that they knew, when too late, by their thoughtless play with them, they had seriously in jured infants intrusted lo their care, one case resulting in spinal disease and the other in fits. And yet it is a sight daily to be seen, that of . people doing these things. Do give the little, folks tender handling. —Rural New Yorker.

The commencement exercises of this favorite instilnlion were, as usual, brilliant and highly interesting.

It was listened to with clliiisiaatio favor by an immense audience, nud ri elite deserves the high ■ ncomiums it has received.
