Mer.ing Lxciiange. The inode and manner of reckoning the rate ! of exchange between the United States and j England is curiously contradictory, and conveys the idea that the balance is invariably against this country. We assume for the “par” as lie- | tween the two countries a medium of many per j tent, below the real “pm'.” The rates of ex- ‘ thange during the progress of the year should how when the actual premium, the real “par” j find the absolute discount, exhibit themselves in j the quotations. It certainly appears a gross ah- j surdity, when we are told that 923 40, or about U 1-4 percent, premium is the par between Lon don and New \ ork. The report of the Secreta ry of the Treasury, in May, 1838, states that 1 since the passage of the act of 1831, for refarm- i ing the American gold coinage, the true par of j exchange with England, estimating gold against gold, is about 9 7-10 above the nominal par.— — 1 The Hritish sovereigns of full weight contain 113 •grains 18 1214 parts of a grain of pure gold, j worth, according to our mint valuation, $4 87. In the Price Currents $1 44 4 9 are assum ed as the par of Exchange on England. This practice began when Spanish pillar dollars were J in circulation, and the Exchange was regulated by the market value ol gold compared w ith that i of silver. Mr. Gallatin, writing in ’29, estimated the par at 7 per cent. rfinee then the par has ! been altered by the new gold standard. Ls the British sovereign, for pound sterling, is $lB7, then thep.tr is established at that price.. Any rate above that price is a premium, and below a j discount. But the sovereign, in commerce, goes tor £44 85 100, which makes the par value about 9 1-4 less a s:n til fraction. We assume -91-4 for convenience, as the rate between the j United States anti England. We thus appear; unceasingly as having a balance against us as a j higher premium is continually paid. The rate of exchange by the last packet was 1 10 1-4. How much better would it he if it were quoted at the actual premium, winch is 1 percent? Should it recede to 9 1-2 it would then he quoted at par; and a further decline to 8 1-4, it would then lie at ! per cent, discount. We should thus have plain sailing, and every one would understand if. Formerly it was a mys tery to comprehend the actual profit or loss of a shipment of specie except to the initiated. Since we have had so large a trade with Califor nia, and American golit lias been shipped in -con siderable quantities, it is better understood, bat the community is still mystified by the existing rules for calculating exchange. It is lime it was modified—[Bankers’ Circular. Jhe Sow'hern Commercial Convention,’ re cently held in Baltimore, lias met with a hearty response in Memphi-., J'enn., where an unusually 1 large adjourned meeting was held on the 13th ult., at which resolutions were passed express ing pleasure at the action of the Convention, ,nd gratification that Hie next meeting of that body is to be held in Memphis, on the first Moti lay ill June next. The hospitalities of the city ! were tendered to all persons who m'g'it attend the re-assembling of the Convention in Mem phis, and a committee was appointed to make • .arrangements for it. *Rkv. Alukkt Barnes.— In reply to a letter of inquiry, if it were true that his health requires j him to turn aside lor the present from the min istry : “It is oven so lam sentenced t<> abso lute rest for two years. I send in my re- , •signation of my pastoral charge to day. What ♦our people will do, 1 have no means of deter mining. 1 shall probably go i s to the country and raise potatoes. This is a great, trial, and •especially at mv time of life, when 1 have so lit tle time, at any rate, to labor in doing good. — i But I desire not to murmur and complain, for thero is a hand above that directs all my affairs, and all affairs.” * j —. Mr. Walter Colton saw at bio, a woman j •only twelve years old, who had two children, j Bhe was married at the age of ten, to a man six ty-five. - They sav that “cabbage grows wild in j Sicily.” If this statement he true, the tailors in that country can afford to be honest. The following anecdote illustrative of rail road facility is very pointed: A traveller inquired 1 of a negro the di stance to a certai 1 point.. “Oat j ’pends on circumstances,” replied the darky.. “If you gwme afoot, iCll take you about a dav ; if you gwine in de stage orde homneybuss, you make it in halt a day ; but if you get in one ol) dese smoke-wagons, you be almost Jar now.” —An Irishman, on arriving in this countrv, took a fancy to the \ankee girls, and wrote t< ■his wife—“ Dear Norah : These melancholy lines ; are to inform you that l died yesterday, -and ; hope you are enjoying the same blessing. I recommend von to marry Jemmy O’Rourke, and. take care of the ehilder. From your afleetionate ! husband till death.” A credulous peasant went to the dergv- j man ol h.s parish, and told him, with symptoms , of great consternation, that he had seen a ghost, i “Where did yon see it ?” “Why,** said Diggory, j “as 1 wat g wig, an’ please your reverence, bv 1 the church, right up against the wall i sees die ghost.” “In what shape did it appear?” “For; 4tll the world like a great donkev.” “Go hon e and hold your.tongue,” replied the clergyman ; “you are a timid creature, and have been fright- ! -ened at your own shadow.” Mothers.—Napoleon Bonaparte being asked who was the most beautiful among women ? is said to have replied, with a smack of the old philosophy of Greece, “She ‘who is mother of I ’the most children.” Gi\c the devil his due. Ctruiinly, says a con temporary ; but it. is Ik Her to have no dealings *\ ut * the devil, and then there will be nothin r due <imn. 0 Ihe entire assets of a recent bankrupt were -ti. ne small children!

L., a ;ew days ago burned its leg’s severely against a stove. The mother inn mediate’y applied Linseed Oil and Cotton Wol, with a tight bandage over all; in a short time the screams of the ehdd induced the mother to icniovefhe bandage, when it was discovered that the cotton wool had t ken fire bv spon taneous combustion and ha ! considerably-increased the size of the built. The motuer happened to tlfinik that .she had part of a bottle of Mustang Limment in lur house j wliu.lt she got immediately and applied to the burned j limbs of tile little sufferer, and as soon as it was applied . the eln!*i coast'd its dies and soon alter f. 11 aslceo in its mother’s arms, by the soothing influence of this valuable | preparation. fins is to cot tify that the .Mexican iMustang Liniment | has been used quite extensively in the stables of Adams & Co.’s Great Southern, E astern and Western Express, for curing Calls, Chutes, Scratches, Sprains and .Bruises, 'and it has proved very effee.ual. Many of their men l'tave j also used it on themselves and tlx ir families, and they all ; speak ol its healing and remedial qualities in the highest terms. One of our hostlers got kicked, and badly out and i bru.sed on his knee—-as usual, the Mustang Liniment was I resorted to, and the soreness and lameness was soon re j moved, and it was perfectly well in three or four days. | W n have no hesitation in recommending it as a valuable j preparation, to be used externally on man or beast. • Rheumatism. —This is to certify that my wife wasaf ; flic ted with severe chronic Rheumatism ; she had stiff*, red i for months with the most excruciating pains ; site had 1 tried Rheumatic Compounds, Reliefs and almost- every thing recommended for this dreadful and sease. None of ; litem relieved her pains in the least.
