the heart's core of many a man, and

the germ of dark despair. O, may

Within the world to glow ; V
A little flame that burneta brishL

God make my life a little flower.
That gtveth joy to all.
Content to bloom in native bower,
Although its place be small.
God make my life a little song,

That helpeth others to be strong,
And makes the singer glad.

Of tenderness and praise;
Of faith that never waxeth dim,

"-wh?t a wonderful man Noah Webster
' was, and how much good he accom
plished, not only for his own country,
but for all who speak and write the
English language? Twenty years did
he give for the accomplishment of this
great work, which required the most
coustant and rerserving effort. He
turned untoward circumstances aud dis
appointments to account : for he live i
id a time unprecedented for hardness,
and unpromising as far as literary work
was concerned, only to those who pos
sessed the calmest determination and
most uSinchiog energy. He was itn
pressed into the service of the Ameri
can revolution in the midst of his col
lege course at Yale, but be graduated
jut the age of twenty, 1778. He had
not the means to pursue the study of
4aw, his ohosen profession. ' His portion
arom ins laicer , received at this time,
was eight dollars Continental currency,
worth about four in silver. The conn-
try was in a deplorable state for LukL
ness of any kind, most especially lor .the
pursuit, ue -naa chosen, , iie taught a
school in Westfbrd, Coun., and at the
same lime pursued the study ot law
without an instructor, and in two years
was admitted to the practice. In 1782
ba taught a classical school in Goshen.

The Treasury - Department officers are
led to believe that fully oue-tbird of the
out-standing fractional currency has been
destroyed and never will be presented for
redemption, and that the total amount In
existence at this time : is not more than
$30,000,000. The basis for this belief la
that the outl amount of old issues of frac
tional currency -which have been redeemed
and irplaeed-by later ones. In paying out
silver coin for fractional currency, the
amount of these old issues which has come
In is found to be very limited, justifying
, the conclusion that fully $10,000 have dis
appeared from circulation, and will not
make Its appearance at the Treasury
again..

. 4- That a well Instructed people alone cat
be permanent!?, free, tt is therefore essen
tial that the public school system shall be
maintained in order that every chikl may
receive such education as will fit him tor
useful citizenship, and we are unalterably
opposed to any division of public school
money for any purpose whatever. -
5. That while we are in favor of a rev
craie for the support of tbe general govern
ment by duties upon imports, sound policy
requires such adjustment of those imposts
as to encourage the development of tho in
dustrial interest of tbe whole country, and
we commend that policy of national ex
change which secures to the working men
liberal wages, to agriculture remunerative
prices, to mechanics and manufacturers an
adequate reward for their skill, labor and
enterprise, and to the nation commercial
prosperity and independence.
S..That the best interests of all citizens
pf every coad!i,hn and pursuit Imperative
ly demand tbe speediest return to a specie
basis of values and currency, and we hall
with gratiScstlo&ibe act of a liepublican
Congress definitely providing tor that end.

8. " We demand that our national candi
dates shall ie men of tried integrity, who
will carry out this policy -of reform, and
preserve inviolate the great results of the
war. -. f ,
9. - We arraign tbe present State adminis
tration and Its supporters as corrupt and
profligate. They have robbed the com
mon school fund; they have been guilty, of
parttzan legislation ; they have squandered
our patrimony in lands, and heaped upon
us a debt of over f 300,000 iu directj viola
