Tho following oxtracta from tbo let ters of Daniel Webster and his brother Ezoklcl will indicato how tho young men had to struggle with poverty through their college days. Tho reader will remember that the homo farm was mortgaged to pay Daniel's expenses through college, and when it was pro posed to give Ezcklol similar advan tages the fathor and mother held a council. "Tho farm is already mort gaged," said tho old gentleman, "and if wo send Ezekiel to collego it will take nil ro have; but tho boys think they can take caro of us." It did not tako tho strong hearted, sagacious woman long to decldo tho matter. "Wo can trust tho boys," sho said. So the matter was settled. Daniel went back to Hanover, whilo Ezekiel went, bundlo in hand, to Doctor Wood's and began tho study of Latin, his expenses being but n dollar n week. In November, 1802, Daniel was at homo in Salisbury, while Ezekiel was btruggling with poverty nt Uanovcr. Funds wero getting low in tho Wobstor homestead. Daniel writes under dato of Nevfl: "Now, Zeko, you will not read half a sentence, no, not one syllable, before you have thoroughly searched this sheet for scrip; but my word for it, you'll llnd no scrip here. Wo held n sanho drin this morning on tho subject of cash. Could not hit upon any way to got you any. Just before wo went away to hang ourselves through disap pointment it enmo into our heads that next week might do. "Tho truth la fathor had an execu tion against Hubbard, of North Ches ter, for about 100. Tho monoy was collecting and just ready to drop into tho hands of tho creditors, whon Hub bard suddenly died. This, you seo. stays tho execution till tho long process of administering is completed. "I have now by me two cents in law ful currency. Next week I shall send them, If they bo all. "Wo aro all hero just in tho old way, always behind and lacking. Boys dig ging potatoes with frozen fingers, and girls washing without wood." Ezekiel writes to.Danicl at about tho samo time, tho two letters probably crossing each other. "These cold, frosty mornings very sensibly inform me that I wont a wnrm greatcoat. I wish, Daniel, it might be convenient to send mo cloth for ono, otherwlso I shall bo necessitated to purchaso ono hero. I do not caro what color it is anything that will keep tho frost out. Some kind of shaggy cloth, I think, would bo cheapest. Deacon Pettingill has written offering mo four teen dollars a. month to teach school. I believe I shall tako it "Money, Dan, monoy! As I was walking down to tho ofllco after a let ter I happoned to have one cont, which is tho only money I have had sinco tho second day after I camo on.

Of all housewives in Europe, prob ably the German is tho hardest worked, and of all European mothers tho Gor man practices most completely tho art of swathing and padding her baby and of putting it on tho shell Tho Ger man baby is swaddled in a long, nar row pillow, which is mado to meet com pletely round liim, being tucked up over his feet and turned under his solomn chin. Throo bands of gay bluo ribbons aro then passed round tho whole bundle and tied in largo, florid bows about where his chest, his waist and his ankles may bo supposed to bo. In this guiso ho can bo deposited as an ornament either on tho sumptuous best bed, or on tho kitchen dresser, or on tho drawing room tablo. How fond tho Germans aro of this presentment of baby may bo guessed from tho fact that it figures Iargoly in their picture books, among their dolls, and oven in tho bakers' shops at Easter time, mado of dough and covered with sugar, to bo devoured by greedy live babies.

There U ample evidence that a superabundcuve of this material has secured admission to the fold and nrinnged to be elected delegates to tho Oualla convention whero they stunted tho growth of tho organiza tion by tho adoption of their crazy millt sub treasury llnauclal scheme, that every member of tho alliance is oven now heartily ashumed of, aud all admit must bo eliminated be fore the order will bo able to gain a national victory at the polls In a nation whero oven seuslblo people of ono sex only are permitted to use tho ballot.

To gain any power tho alliance must go before tho people with sound common scuso financial propositions, or olso thoy will never succeed. To cry out against special legislation aud at tho enuio time de imnd that all money value bo batted ou tho product of tho furmcr aud ou his laud, is a clear demand for spe cial privileges to i.e class only that will never bo toloratcd. No nation over issued any better money for uso among ItH peoplo than tho greou- baoks that wero gooa ror an noma public and private, aud all tho pco plo need nov Is for tho government to Issue enough of that samo kind of money, having as tho basis of Uj stability overy dollar's worth of property owned aud held by tho tho peoplo of tins nation, and make provisions whereby it can be put into tho hands of tho peoplo at reasonable interest ou good collateral, aud tho American peoplo would soon upon new mines nnd overy acre of idlo land would soon bo teeming with valuable products suitable to our dlvcrsilled climate.
