Theodore Tilton has lcei deal ing somewhat unfairly with teach ers' institutes latelv. reeloveism las so entirely taken possession of lis faculties, as to prompt him to thrust it forward upon every occa sion, -.whether acceptable or not. Not long since he ras engaged to ecture before a teachers' institute it West Chester, Pennsylvania, rhe subject announced was "Home Sweet Home." The lecture, how ever, was on free love and divorce. flic ' institute felt indignant, and adopted a resolution expressing its 'unqualified disapproval and con demnation of the lecture, believing that the aim and tendency of the ecture' are agaiust the interests of society, repugnant to the enlighten ed sentiments of this community ,and at war with the highest social, mor al and religious well-being of the country ; and we now and here de nounce the lecture as unworthy of the presence or hearing of any res ectable audience." liood Movement. San Francisco is signing a me morial to Congress asking the coin age of a piece of money of the value of two dimes, in place of tlie quarter, and asking that a half dollar shall have the name of "Five Dimes" in the center of the reverse. This will make the dime the unit of calculat ing the value of small articles, in stead of the "bit." The present unit, or "bit," is certainly unequal, tf not inconvenient. A dime passes for a bit ; , and yet eight dimes will not be received at the mint for a dollar, nor four for a half a dollar. A merchant might purchase a sup ply of dimes at the mint, receiving ten for a dollar, and in h'is dealing give out eight, which would make a clear gain of twenty cents on the dollar, besides his profit on the articles sold. The "bit," as the unit of circulation as it is managed now, appears to us a very imperfect one, and this San Francisco memorial will correct it. Tormented. ."-4- . t'urango. Curango for curing cancers, is now pronounced by a South American correspondent of the New York Herald to be a humbug. The pa pers were filled with the wonderful cures it had wrought upon the mother of Schuyler Colfax ; but it is now stated that she is as bad as ever. The State Department at Washington, which has given a sort of half-way endorsement to this cu rative properties of this plant, must have been badly deceived, or else it is no humbug. The question to be settled is: Which is what, this or thus ? That's what we would like to know.

The dispatches from Xew York say that last Monday night the In ternational society held a very stormy.-meeting, at which Theodore II. Banks presided. Afcer much violent declamation against the po lice authorities forj preventing the parade and arresting members of the society last Sunday, a motion to parade next Sunday was passed amid the wildest applause. A com mittee was appointed to wait on Governor Ilofiman jand request him to revoke the police order and ask the State for protection. Another committee was appointed to inform the Superintendent bt Police of their determination to j parade. The meeting broke up with jrells ot "Vive La Commune 1" "Vive La Internationale !"
