The papers take a periodical ppell of
ccoiiotiiieal invcsitgaliun, and are now
eoiiiewh.it engaged ia discussing tlio
"cost ol living." The times have been
well calculated to provoke inquirb s of
this fort, but to (ar nut much ol practi
save the general counsel to practice
economy, and there are limits to that;
people mtut ejt, dress, bura tuol, hare
habitations and educate children. Iu
regard to tho laboring classes, one of
the changes wrought by modern pro
gress is thus indicated:
There was a tiuu c when, in many
parts of the world, laboring men were
pail in kind, that is in products, for
their work. Thus iu Pennsylvania
fifty years ago, aud eveu less a hboiiog
man working iu the harvest eld re
ceivel a bushel of wheat for a day's
service. If wheat was 70, 80, 90, or
100 cents a bushels, it mattcied not,
tho bushel paid the day's labor, or what
it sold l'or was accorded iu cash. The
ume rule applied to many other
articles. Ma ruada contracts to wor k
for so much iu kind, to be dalirored
whenthe work was done. Wheu this state
of tho hibir market existed there was
no facility for delivering largo quantites
of raw or uiauufaotured material long
distances. Iron and wheat then were
carried on Dack-niale3 followiug bridle
paths over tho Alleghenies, and when a
road was constructed by which teams
could traverse those wilds it was regar
ded as the greatest achievement of the
tiruos. The cost ot living then could
be regulated with something like cer
tainty, because man's wants were few
aad simple, and there were few markets
in which to ''cornet" any article.
This view of the matter does not af
ford ruuoh encouragem-jut. It is proba
ble that some day there will be such uu
overhauling of our financial system as
will relieve the masses from unnecessary
burdens and more equally distribute
the wealth that is accumulated by hon
est toil.

day. The Lock Haven Republican
eays a raft which Mr. Hevncr was run
ning through '.bo tchuto at the dam,
parted iu the middle, and be fell into
the water, the latter part of the raft
patting over Lim. lie tamo up bold
ing ou the oar blade, and ropes wcro
thrown to him. It eeemed", however as
if ho had lost consciousness, for he
made to attempt whatever to catch the
rope, aud ho went down to death iu the
very grasp almost of those who were
near him. Tho body has Dot been
found. 'Squire llevner was an old
rivernian, having been engaged thereou
for at least forty years. Mr. llevner
was known to sereial persons ia this
iry. 1
Tho J 'ress commenting on the heavy
damages awarded against the Chicago
1'imet for an outrageous libel ou ate
spectablo young lady, say?;
"The publication was wanton, reck
less, and unjustifiable, and the article
was a tissue of lies from begiuuing to
cud. The sensation which it was the
purpose .of tlio publication to prodaco
was created. Of course (bo falsity of
the article was demonstrated asaoon as
it appeared, and tho Time, as it had
done iu a seote of aim ilar cases, thong ht
to appease I he injured party by a rc
tractiou. The friends of (ho young
lidy wero determined, however, to sei.k
legal redrew, aod tho result was a ver
dict against tho publish ir of tho paper
tor ?25,OO0.
The damages awarded wcro uu usu
ally heavy, but not more fo than the ag
gravated nature, of the case justified,
and tho vcrdiet will be universally ap
proved. It is also a heavy blow at fcu
cational newspapers, which we hope to
see followed up iu other quarters uutil
the Chicago Timeu' style of journalism
ceases to be profitable."
Tub Financial Pkoulbm. The
l'ittaburg '. Gazette in referring to the
financial pro.-peet of the future says:
The United States Treasury seems, at
last, likely to experience the effeot o1
the strain to reduce the currency bal
ances to a very low point. There is
serious danger that it will not be able
to meet its engagements during the
present month. It this should occur,
perhaps Seeietary Bristow will opeu bis
eyes to the absurdity of the policy be is
attempting to follow. Tho plan of with
drawing currency, aad straining toward
specie resumption has prostrated the in
dustries of the country, aud while Con
gress has legislated to save the United
States Treasury from the embarrass
ment of such a course, the pressure is
beginning to be felt. That it must
oome, f oouer or later, unless the cuuu
t ry ia drained to supply the demands el
the Treasury, is evident. We have not
the gold with which to resume; houoe,
every pressure put on the business of
the country to force if to resume specie
payments, really pushes it toward bank,
ruptcy. As this becomes more and
more pa'pible, the Treasury will feel it
the more evidently. It is rather sur
prising that eoon after Congress had
specially legislated to rave the Uaited
States Treasury from the effect of its
.own policy, it (hould fall iuto the very
difficulties that have been pointed out
as sure to come, at tome time. But
this only proves that tiie country is
more ejiaiiusted than was supposed, and
that a restorative policy cannot be safely
aulitji'il very loi'f;."
