THOSE who can afford it should make a point of attending either the Cincinnati or the St. Louis convention—or both— this month. Being close the trip will not be an expensive one, and the number of celebrated public men one may see congregated together will be a sight worth going further to see.

IT would be as well not to make any rash bets on the results of the Cincinnati and St. Louis conventions just yet. In these times nothing changes so rapidly as the political appearance of things. Indiana may furnish candidates for both parties but it would hardly be safe to bet heavily on her furnishing every one

THE New York Graphic expresses it correctly In the remark that "A little wit goes further in Congress than anywhere else on the face of the earth." If there is anything on earth more stapid than some of the stuff that passes there for wit it will have to be sought for in some of the professedly humorous newspapers.

PENNIES.

In this part of the country, any money smaller than the "nickel" la commonly regarded aa a great nuisance, and where the purchaser of any article finds one or two oents ooming to him in the way of "change," he usually refuses to reoeive it, as if the coppers were something entirely beneath the notice of a self-respecting

American citiaen and ha

was in honor bound to show his contempt for them on all proper occasions. If he happen in some accidental, and most generally wholly unaccountable manner, to become possessed of three cents in coins of the kind mentioned he will feel a good deal more embarrassment as to how he is to get rid of them than he would if each piece was a coun terfeit quarter anfl he knew It and had made up his mind not to loeee anything on tliem. If he makes a purchase of even a postage stamp be will pay out the coppers with a crest-fallen, apologetic air, as if he was engaged in something small and mean, something that waa beneath him and was not his habit at all, and he hoped humbly that the clerk wouldn't say anything about it. And so, coppers make cowards us all. We are ashamed to buy less than five cents worth of anything, no matter what it is or how muoh of it we need. A few months ago in this city certain cigar dealer, who was also manufacturer, reduced the retail prices of his cigars about fortjr per cent. One brand of cigars of which he had viously sold enormous quantities at five cents each, he reduced to three conts piece. But it killed the sale of that oi gar as dead as a mackerel. Nobody buys it now. Everybody takes the one that was reduced to five cents. The cigar was a very good one and used to suit" first rate, but what gentleman want ed to demean himself by throwing down a nickel for a cigar and taking back two coppers in change?

K,'f

But is this a proper feeling? Is there not really something a little absurd about it Probably it has not occurred to most persons that the free circulation of smaller cdlns of the smallest value, as of pennies in this oountry, exercise an important influence on the national character as well as upon individual finances. It will not be denied that the qualities of thrift and economy are of great importance in the make-up of national or individual character, and these qualities are largely affected by the abundance or scarcity of small coins in circulation. The habit of buy ing two or three times as much of an article as one wants tends not only to impoverish the buyer, but to produce recklessness and extravagance, which in the course of time must have a reflex influence on national character. In the course of household events it often hap pens that a small quantity of some article is needed, say two or three pennies worth. If pennies are abundant and their use encouraged, the exact quantity of the desired article can be obtained if not, the person buys five cents worth, and thus throws away two or three cents,* or at least spends the amount needlessly. The sum is small, but often repeated, it oounts up, and the aggregate waste in a community or a nation is very great. But worse than the waste is the habit of extravagance which it begets. Economy is the basis of all wealth, as self-denial is, of all true manhood and womanhood. Other things being equal, the man or womjin whe has thoroughly mastered the art of self-denial is most likely to develop a strong character, while it will not be disputed that economy is the secret of national as of individual wealth. The free use of small coins tonds to the development of these virtues. We are inclined to think that pennies are much less commonly used in the Northern cities than formerly, and the sign is not a good one. So far from being discarded they should be used more than ever. Retail dealers should be given to understand that they must not charge five cents for the smallest measure of everything, and so compel people to spend that amount when two or three cents' worth of the article is all they want and buyers should rid themselves of the absurd notion that it is "small" to aak for just the precise quantity they want. Iu Southern cities before the war ten cents was the lowest price asked for anything. Now they have got down to five cents, but pennies are still almost unknown in the South. In old and densely-pop-ulated oountrles, where the value of money aud the art of living are much better understood than with us, American travelers are often'surprised at the exceeding smallness of the coins, and throw them about with contempt. Their surprise Is not greater than that of the thrifty tradesman, who indulges also a secret contempt for the extravagance of tho American, who shows by his conduct that he cares nothing for the nqble virtue of economy.

THfc Cincinnati Times, in a half column editorial article, proves conclusively that to people with the stomach of an ostrich, the enenmber, as an atticle of food, is not without Its charms. It Is said to be oool—cool as a cucumber— and to make more nightmare to the square inch than any known product of the garden. But perhaps the strongest peint made by the Times in ttvor ef the euoumber is on the soon of economy. They are economical and go a great way. cucumber eaten with tolerable basket continues attending to business for thi next week, giving you a new taste every hour, with a distinctness of flavor that I* almost good as afresh cucumber.

IT IS thought that the impeachment trial of Belknap will occupy at least six weeks time, and cost—well, we forget how much, but considerable more than Belknap is worth. Now we would like to have somebody explain what sense there is in going through with the solemn farce. What satisfaction as compared with the cost will bis impeachment be to anybody except the pompous old duffers who take a part in the proceedings? Belknap is not of the least importance now and shouldn't be made of any. Let his trial in the Criminal Court go on and let him be quietly sent to the penitentiary as he deserves to be. Don't at this late day try to exalt him Into a hero or a martyr.

HON. ISAAH DONHAM has made some valuable discoveries in reference to Rise-Up Allen of Ohio, and, like a good Democrat, embodied them in a communication to the Journal, published Tuesday. To tho ordinary reader the Honorable Isaah's exact meaning may appear a little obscure—his figures rather mixed—but his calling Rise-Up a profitable company, a pleasant living light, a flowing fountain, a native original, etc., are unquestionably to be taken in a complimentary sense. His exact words are: "Such men are profitable company. Such are pleasant living lights—a flowing fountain, a native original in sight of manhood and heroic nobleness. Such a nature speaks volumes in proof of the genial influence of free institutions, enveloping real genius, and providing for a grand theatre of action."

As an example of the wonderful capabilities of the English language to shroud the meaning- of a writer the communication is a curiosity and we shall always regret our inability to publish it entire.

THE BLAINE DRAMA. There is something intensely dramatic and exciting in the fight Blaine is making against his accusers in Washington, and whether the charges of corruption are true or false one cannot but admire the man's wonderful pluck in meeting them. True he is fighting for large stakes and fighting desperately, yet he is doing it with such consumate tact and skill as makes the contest remarkable. With the Presidency almost within his grasp, a triumph in sight which would universally be regarded as a triumph of talenp over adverse circumstances with the whole world eagerly watching and ready to applaud and yet surrounded and almost overwhelmed by a host of enemies, the shrewdest and the smartest in tho land, attacking him on every hand, what other man could bear up under it as he does and come up smiling every day to meet and defeat his enemies and constantly strengthen himself? It is the most thrilling drama ever witnessed in America.

SPEAKER KERR.

No news since the exposure of Belknap has startled the country more severely than the recent charges made against Speaker Kerr. The,first expressions of the press were decidedly friendly to Mr. Kerr and a disposition was shown to attribute the charge of Harney to personal malice, or worse, the deliberate plan of some partisan ring to ruin him and embarrass the Democratic prfrty. The tone of the Republican papers was notable for its moderation. But the more the evidence is weighed the more heavily does the burden seem to settle on tho accused. The charge is, that in 1868 Mr. Kerr took from the witness Harney $450 for getting from Johnson's administration a commission as Lieutenant for a Mr. Greene, of New York. A suspicious feature of the affair is that Harney and Greene were both Republicans and the suspicion is easily indulged that, without special persuasion of some kind, so pronounced a parti zan as Mr. Kerr would have reserved his influence with a conservative administration for the benefit of men of his own party. We believe the Speaker does not deny having asked for Greene's appointment, and a letter of his on file at the War Department recommending Greene seems to settle that point beyond cavil.

Greene's testimony Is that he did not not furnish Harney with money to be paid to Mr. Kerr, ner does he know that any of the money he gave to Harney for securing his appointment was given to Mr. Kerr. HajrneyM story, hoftever, Is quite definite, pointed and circumstantial. He haa told It twice and has been closely cross-examined by Mr. Kerr's attorney, and so frr it is net abaken. It Is against Harney that be confesses to have sought offices for men by means of bribes. But even a corrupt man may tell tbe truth, and it is difficult, in the present light of things, to see wherein he is not aa credible a witss Marsh, who testified to Belknap's corruption. Mr. Kerr may be innocent, and we sincerely hope he is

lial

that be will be able to establish the foot beyond any cavil, for it is monstroos to of the third effloer La the government stooping to such coneontemplable bribery. But ss the matter now standa ltmuat be confessed that it looks bad for Mr. Kerr.

TKN thousand Knights' Templar marched in procession at the parade in Philadelphia, Thursday. Probably a finer or more imposing demonstration of the kind was never seen in America.

THBRK is actually nothing new under tbe sun. The popular slang term, "Wipe your chin," would seem to be particularly an outgrowtn of this degen erate age, but it ia not its origin, or, at least, first record way be found in "Twelfth Night, or What you Will," act 2, scene 3, wherein Sir Toby Belch advises the cross-guttered Malvolio to "go, rubyotur chin with crumbs.'" In this connection it may be as well to state that tbe expression "horse of another color," has it's record in the same scene.

JUDGING from Indianapolis papers there must be dreadful suffering among the laboring classes in Indianapolis. The Herald of to-day has a long article on the subject in wbioh some startling information is contained. The head lines to this srticle will convey some idea of its nature. They are: "The Labor Problem. Twelve Thousand Workin gmen Starving. Suffering, Discontent, Turbulence and Threats. Organizing for Violence. Secret Meetings Held for Five' Weeks. Military Drills, by

Day

and Night, in the Neighboring

Woods. Communistic Views of Political Economy."

JUDGE HILTOS,of New York, has been giving the reporters some account of the piles of begging letters received by him since Mr. Stewart's death. The experience is a common one with people about whose wealth or benevolence the newspapers have much to say. Mr. Chauncy Rose, of this city, In his time, is supposed to have received more than a hundred thousand of such effusions and they continue to drift in upon bim yet from all parte of the country and from all kinds of people, excepting people of good sense, honesty and industry. Those who are not millionaires or who are not constantly before the public eye as such, have little idea of the way men like Van derbilt and Aetor and others that might be mentioned are tormented by this sort of thing every dsy of their lives. And even they would be impoverished if they gave heed to the multitude of unhpppy men and women who wish to share their fortunes with them.

QIOQLINQ QIRLS.

A lady writer gives tho following well-merited remarks on what she terms "giggling girls:" "The Te-hes. Perhaps you don't know them by that name. Well, then, suggest a better. They are the Salt of our society, in one sense girls of good minds—minds that will be good if they survive tho giggling age girls of good families, well dressed, polite ana fine looking, but possessed of the insane idea that they must laugh upon all occasions, whether there is anything to warrant it or not. else they are not jolly, gay girls, and lively company. A bevy of them came into the Public library the other day. One had just had an adventure, which was to be recited. She dropped into a chair, bent over, and held her sides, and they all chorused in. They hadn't heard it yet, butof course it would be awful funny when it was told. She was coming up K. street when she stepped on a rotten plank—te he! he!—chorus, te he! —and down she went. Ob, dear!—te he! he!—and her foot got tangled—full chorus, te he! he he!—and a man came along with a horrid check-shirt on—he! he! he!—big checks perfectly horrid! —he!—and helped ner up—he! be! he! Then a waving of the bodies back and forth, and a grand te he, ad libitum, all together. The/ were splendid girls! I speak sincerely. But what an exhibition I saw an old grav-beard take a book he didn't want and hurry away. Then another girl took it up, and said her book was so comical she just howled over it—he! he! They must all read it —tbev would laugh so. As If that was the chief end ana aim of a girt's existence. When a man is amused be laughs with gusto, and then straightens bis face till the next time. And it has some meaning. But the perpetual grin or giggle is detestable. At a lecture recently I saw six young ladies seemingly convulsed with laughter for five minutes or more at the accidental dropping of a aper of candies over the floor. I think can go into a social parlor and select the groups of married ladies from those of the girls—not by their feces nor by .1 .« I .1 a kM Af

their dresses, but by the amount of giggling done. Matrimony subdues the snickerer.
