The United States has just issued a new coin, called the trade dollar, and as many appear to be ignorant of their use, we take the annexed from the San Francisco Call of a late date, which explains the whole matter : It is thought singular that a coun­ try should establish a different stand­ ard of value for its own coins of the same designation ; yet the demands of commerce have made such a meas­ ure necessary iu the United States. In the Chinese trade the Mexican sil­ ver dollar has always been preferred, because more valuable than any Amer­ ican coin or coins representing that de­ nomination. This necessitated the purchase of the Mexican dollar by the American merchant trading in China at a premium, which, of course, was a heavy discount against him. To meet this exigency, the Government of the United States has raised the value of its trade dollar, to enable American silver coin to enter into competition with the silver coin of Mexico. In 1867 the Mexican Government au- thorized a new die for its silver dollar, slightly reducing its value. Now it has taken the alarm, and will proba­ bly restore the silver coinage standard as in use prior to November of that year. The following comparison will show the standard of pure silver of the sev­ eral silver dollars known to the com­ merce of the East, including the late­ ly existing United States dollar : Weight.

It would be if farmers cultivated the earth as teach­ ers develop the head, and preachers educate the heart. Teachers and preachers aim to train the thoughts and feelings to truth and love, utility and happiness. Farmers should train the earth to produce such crops and fruits, and such only, as are conducive to the best health and highest.tvclfare of human beings. Then would their calling be transformed from one of de­ grading drudgery and interminable toil to one of refinement and luxury. The germinating seed, the waving grain, the luscious fruits, so suggestive of the source of all life and all bless­ ing, and the harvest season, so typical of a resurrection and immortality, ought to make the life of the agricul­ turist a continual pastime. And this would be the farmer’s life, if farming was managed as it should lx?. Farmers have unequaled natural ad­ vantages for health, strength and lon­ gevity. The stati tics of disease and the tables of mortality, however, are against them. This is not due to their vocation, but to their misuses of it- No class, as a whole, i-» probably so ut­ terly reckless of health conditions. So far as our acquaintance with the hab­ its of farmers is concerned—and it has been extensive—it compels the conclu­ sion that, as a rule, the dietic habits of farmers are worse than those of any other class, who hâve the means of choosing for themselves. C heckers in D anbury .—An aged couple on Wooster street are very fond of checkers, and play quite frequently.’ When lie I a*ats at the game site loses’ her temper and declares she will not play again.

Then he throws the checkers in one direction, kicks the board in another, and says he will never play with any- Ijody who cheats so alt-firedly, and stalks mootlily to bed, and leaves her to pick up the things.
