AS ARTIST'S SXOliY.

Candidly, now, it is not many yearssince, in obedieuce 10 wbat I fait to be a'roug impulse, I determined to Beleclirt as a profession, and to rcuder iLe

decided bias of my inclination an hon-orable means of livelihood.

Seated one clay in my studio, ongagodn putting \he finishing touches to a;mal! landscape, of which u summer triputo Shropshire Lid furuislied me vvitli H

preliminary sketch, I vias wonderingwhen the love for tho profession I ha ichiisen, and the time and labor bestow-ed upon it, would begin to brintf buck

substantial return in tbo Lrm ofpatronage and commissions, when I wastartlcd from my revery by a hasty tap

at my door, and a cherry voice asking :"Are ycu at borne ? Oh, all right !""I t was a fellow-artist aud particular

l.um of my own, who, entering veryunceremoniously, and somewhat out ofbreath, plumped himself into tiie onlyvacant chair, and at ouce proceededivith :

"I've brought you good news, my boy !I'm goir.g to make your fortune !"

Being considerably interested, I bsg-jed him to explain, aud only takingsufficient time to fill hit; little brownpipe, he at enco assented, commencingwith tho inquiry :

"Have you had any visitor here yet ?""No," I replied. "You are tho first.""That's all right," he said ; " I wished

0 be the first to tell you. Well, then,ast evening I had a call from a gentle-

man—see, here's his card—'31r. FrancisJ . Bouverie,' who appears to be actingas au agent to the Marquis of , incollecting for that nobleman a emailgallery of works by native artists, beingevidently a connoisseur in tnch things;and Lord is, as you know, a capitalpatron of our noble profession of thecanras. Hs has Ecloeted one or two ofmy things, and expressing a desire forsomething in the small landscapo way, Ididn't forget you, and shall be very hap-py if I've brought your first patron."

I thnnked my friend very heartily forhis good nature, and began to fancy mypet pictures already disposed of.

"lie evidently means business," hewent on to say; "for ho assured me h slordship is not particular as to the prico.But we shall have to send our picturesto be approred of at an address in Wi;n-pole street, which he has left with me.Show him tho best you have and confirmthe good character 1'vo given youDon't bo afraid of putting a good figureon the pictures ; in fact you may- take alesson in that particular, if in no other,from little Tom Farncombo. The littlecad was with me wheu this party called,and Tom didu't forget to advertise hisown works most energetically. ' I wantoue or two nice littie bits of landscape,'eays this Mr. Bouverio to me. ' I havea sweet little thing at home, close by !'cries Tom, running his fingers throughhis whitey-brown hair, aDd without moreado he started off to fetch it. Iu themeantime I mentioned you to him, audyou may expect him, I take it, anyminute."

"Hallo, Brother Daubs, what's thenews V" at that moment came from anugly face, with a red 6tubby beard andmustache, and ocherish looking hair,carried behind the ears, peeping in iitthe door. " I was just passing—lookedin, you know! Dono busiues3 withyour friend, Charley ?" addressing mycompanion. "Hallo, old fellow, yourfoliage is ra'.her heavy, ain't it ?" to me."By the by, I showed him—tho agentto Lord —, 1 moan—that little thing1 epoko of. Delighted with it, sir,—de—lighted ! 8hall send it up to Wimpole street at once. I suppose he hasu'tcalled on you, has ho ?" he added, turning to mo. ' 'By <he way, I doa't likethat sky ; there's no weather in it. Hotold me Lord wanted paintings bymen of note only, and so—"

"He applied to you, Tom, eh ?" askcd Charley.

"Exactly !" replied the other, appar-ently unconscious of the tono of sarcasmaccompanying the question. "I\cmem-bor the subject of mine ? Figures—children—fishing—village pool—sweeteffect in middle distauce!"

"Ah!" fays Charley. "A ocpy, isn'tit?'

"Copy! Aro you a copy? No;sketched it lust spring. A sweet thing,mind me, no two mistakes about that!"

"Well," says Charley, seeing I wasbecoming hoi ed, "Frank wants to finish,so come uloug, Tom, aud send yoursweet thing to Wimpole street as soinas possible, or ho may change his tniud."

"Not much fear of that I" repliesTom ; and after a few more suggestionsto me, as to the tone of tho sky and thehandling cf the foliage, my two lriendswithdrew.

Iu the course of the day tho servantannounced a visitor, and looking at triecard sho presented, I recognized thename mentioned by Charley. A s'ightfigure, .and geulleman-like appearance, afrank and easy address, and the generaldemcauor of a polite man of business.I vvus more than evur disposed to bopleased with my new patron.

"I have waited on you," he commenc-ed, iu a singularly soft and pleasingvoice, "as agent of the Marquis ofin selecting a smsll gallery of works bynative artists. Ills lordship, as you areaware, id an enthusiast io such matters,and pessfsses no small degree of abilityhimself as an amateur.!^,lie is particu-larly favorable to the smaller-sizedpaiiitings like that ou your easel there,aiid if you are at liberty to dispose ofany that may suit him, perhaps we cancome to terms."

1 hastened to assuro him I shouldouly be too hnppy, and very gladly call-ed his attention to some of my bestefforts.

"Ah," he said, stepping back ondscrutinizing each as 1 placed it in themost favorable position, with his eyespaitly closed, aud liis liead on one sido,and speaking slowly, "that's the sort ofthing. Thai's about his lordship's mark," fancy. A leelle cold, perhaps, butvery nice. Ah, that's a beter oue lomy view. Do ycu tbiak, uow, youcoulJ manage—say, four of thesa, andsend them at ouce to this address ? Iexpect the Marquis in town tl.e dayalter to-morrow, or it may be later; hewill then inspect the colieolion 1 havemade, aud make his own selectionsWrite na:ne and price on back of each,aud suppose you favor me with a call—well" (referring (o a pocket diary andmaking a note therein), "ibia day week,he 24th—will that ba oonvenieut?"

I assured Lim uotbing could be bct-er, and having seen my pleasant visitor0 the door, returned iii high spirits to

the completion of my work.Taking what I thought my beet pic

tures in a four-w heeler the i>cxt day tohe address i;i Wimpole stroct, I fouud

seVeral brother artists already assembledthere, evidently on the same errand asmyeerf, among them my friend Gharlojnd little Tom Farooombe. Tho lat-

ter .was, as usual, the most noisy, being. d iu tlio argument respecting

haugiug of the "oweet thing;'1 the lightwas baJ, or the position unfavorable ;but the uniform urbauitj of his lord-ship's agent smoothed all difficulties, andcalmed the ruffled temper of our friend.Whether it was professional envy on mypart, or adefieieucy of appreciative pow-er, 1 am free to confess I could not seethe grL-at merit of Tom's painting, al-though the impetuous little artist con-inucd to iusiat on its having the most

favorable place in the room."Dou't you see, my very dear eir," ho

argued, "unless you get the light iu thatdirection you miss the charming effectin the middle distance?"

I fancied once or twice I saw a tlysmile lurk at the corners of the mouth,or twinkle ia the eyea, as wiih unwaver-ing good temper and p iliteness, Mr.Bouverie replied :

"Very true, very true, indeed I"Having deposited my precious load I

was about to retire, when, fallowing meto the door, he .said—

'Don't forget th;s day week, tho 2-lth.Don't be later, as 1 shall be glad tomake an end of this—Bottle all claims,and return to his lordship's to supcrin-end the hanging of the pictures. Good

day, my dear sir ; I think I may contra'.ulatfc you beforehand on the sale of

all your pictures."Sanguine with tho hope which these

parting words raised, 1 returned to mystudio, more enthusiastic tLeu ever, andmore grateful, if possible, to my goodfriend Charley, who had afforded me theopportuuity of establishing euuh a valun-1

bio conaeetioD.Tho time seemed to pass slowly until

thu appoiuted day, and being pretty wellleft to myself—except for a visit or twofrom Tom Farncombe, who called, apparently, for the purpise of finding faultwii.li my works, and extolling his own—had plenty of opportunities for indulgingin those delightful dreams of future fameand competence which the farewell wordsof my new friend had so materially encouraged.

I had had one or two misgivings as totho prico I had affixed to each picture.Had I asked enough ? Did the paint-ings really possess more merit than Ihad modestly believed ? The Marquisof was a staunch patron of tho arts1 had always heard, aud was very richOn the other hand, I thought I haderred perhaps on the light sido, and mymoderate demands might all the morefirmly secure a patron, wheu be foundworks of ability or promi°e valued at areasonable sum by the artist.

Yfs, altogether I had acted wisely Iconcludei, and I busied myself with lay-ing in for other landscapes from thesketches besidj me.

On the 24th I determined to walkqu :eiyup to Wimpole street, in theearly part of the day, so that I might bebefore hand with the rest of my brother-artiste, obtain tho settlement, as proposed by Mr. Bouverie, for the ac«eptedpiotures, aud ia easo of any being rejectcd, return with them quietly to mystudio.

I was surprised, therefjro, on arrivingat the address to find that tho others hadacted apparently on tho same impulseas myself, for I found the door open andtho hall full. But I waa still moreamazed when I fouud that they wereengaged in a furious altercation with thelandlady of the house. Loudest amongthem I could distinguish Tom Farn-combe's violent and persistent demand.

"But where is Mr. Bouverie ? I in-sist on seeing Mr. Bouverie I"

"Good gracious, gentlemen!" criedthe landlady, "what on earth is the goodof asking w ? Uow should I kuo.v ?"

Ho took my ground-floor front for aweek ; said he was a picture dealer, andleft for Liverpool four days ago, takingall tlie pictures with him."

'Then, by Jove ! 'cried Charley, as nnew ligh', suddenly dashed upon us, "thefellow's a swindler, and we have boondone 1"

"And tho scoundrel, by this time," ex-claimed another, "is on hiswu}' to AniOi-ica, ond all the paintings with him!"

'•But did lie leave nothing behind him—a letter or n paper, or anything wecould trace him by ?" joined in a lliird,as the recollection of hours of nnxiouaand unremuneiated labor probably recurred to him.

"Ho left nothing but a picture," re-plied the landlady.

"A picture ! ' wo all seemed to say atonce.

"Yes, sir ; and a pleasanter and morehonorable gentleman I never know ; forhe not only paid the full week in ad-vanco, but at parting tnado mo a presentof the painting to please the ohildren."

"Whore is i t ? " we all thundered out."In the parlor ; please, gentlemen, to

step in uid look at it."And there, hanging alone on nn oth-

er-wiso bare wall, was a small landscape—children, figures fishing, village pool.

"Gentlemen," says Charley, gravely,"I am very sorry for ull of us—we'vebeen thumefully sold. But, Tom," headds, turning to the little man, who was

ting perfectly nghatt, " I am moatsorry for y ou. Tlmt sweet thing of yoursisn't good enough even to be—stolen !"

Condensed History of Steam.About two hundred and eighty years

before Christ, Eier, of Alexandria, form-ed a toy which exhibited somo of thepowers of steam, and was moved by itspower.

A. D. 450, Antheming, an architect,arraugfcd several culdroug of water, eachcovered with the wide buttom of a leath-er tube, which rose lo a narrow top,which pipes extended to the rafters ofthe adjoining building. A fire was kin-dled beneath tho caldrons, aud the housewas shaken by the efforts of tho s'eamasceudiug the tubes. Tijis is tho firstnotice of tho power of steam reooided.

In 154:!, June 17, Blasco D. Garoyied a steamboat of 209 tons, with tol-

erable success, at Barcelona, Spain. I tconsisted of a caldron of boiling water,and a movable wheel on each side of thesliip. I t was laid as!dt) as impracticableA presort, however, was made to Ga-my.

Iu 1G50, the first railroad was con-structed at Newcattle-on Tyne.

Iu 171S, patents were granted to Sa-vory for the first application of thesteam engine,

Iii 17C-t, James Watt made the firstperfect steam engine iu England.

In 1736, Jonathan Hulls set forth theidoa of P! earn navigation.

In 1778, Thomas Paine first proposedthis application iu Amerioa.

In 1781, Marquis JoufiVoy construct-ed one in Saonc.

Iu 1785, two Americans published awork on it.

In 1789, William Tymington mida avoyasc in one on tho Forth of ClydoCanal.

In 1802, this experiment was repeat-ed.

In 1782, Itamecy propelled a boat bysteam to New York.

In 1788, John Fitch, of Philadelphianavigated a boat by a steam engine outhe Delaware.

In 1793. Eobort Fulton first beganto apply his attention to steam"

In 1793, Oliver Evans, a native ofPhiladelphia, constructed a locomotivesteam engiuo to travel on a turnpikeroad.§|,The first steam vessel that crossed the,Atlantic was the "Savannah," in thomonth of June, 1S19, from Charlestonto Liverpool.

Ilard Times.If "had times" aro at bs&d, as many

believe, it must be remembered that wehavo had very little of them for manyyears. To our own surprise and that ofthe world, wo finished a tremendous civ-il war without any severe financial disas-ters. The salaried classes, it is true suf-fered much from the depreciation of thecurrency, and the ordinary wage classfor a short period ; but tho latter soonreceived fcneh enormous subsidies inbounties and so much addi'ional employ-ment in vaiious directions from Govern-ment, that they at length reached a moreprosperous condition than before thewar. Immense branches of productionand industry were profitably employedduring the struggle by the public au-thorities, so that the war closed leavingtho railroads, for instance, the farmersand a portion of tho manufacturers iusuch prosperity as they had not seen fora generation.

But it is impossible for a Dation to eatits cake and still have it. We oannotexpend our hundreds of millions, andstill be as well off r.s we were before.—We havo, indeed, transferred somo ofour burdens lo another generation, butwe still must have many to bear. Theapparent gains to certain chssos duringtho war led them into the wildest extrav-agance, and there has been an unbound-ed spirit of speculation, owing in part tothe influence of a redundant currencyProductive employments have been toomuch abandoned, aud young men havehurried to the cities to make sudden for-tunes by q-iick turns in the gold or stockmarkets. The general style of livinglifis become moro expensive, aud tbomiddle classes imitate the wealthy, andkeep up a mode of life entirely out cfproportion to their means.

Salt aud vater is used by many as a gargle, but alittle alum snd hooey dissolved iu sagetea, is better. An application of clothswrung out of hot water aud applied totho nook, changing as often as they bogin to ecol, has the most potency forremoving inflammation of anything weever tried.

A little bird flewTo the top of a tree ;

The sky it wns IjlueAnd the bird sang to me.

So tender and true was the strainThe singer,I hoped, would remain ;O little bird, stay and prolongThe rapture, the grief of the song.

A little thought came,: : out of my heart;

It whispered :t nameThat made me to start.

And the rone-colored breath of tar sighFlushed the earth and the si :i and the sky,Delay, little thought! O, 'Aud gladden my lite with thy ray !

How different in all re.-peurs from ourNew England ! Hero the winds burlyand scurry, and change, ofien manylimes a day; there they unchanginglyblow in one direction for six months, andthen the opposite for t-ix. months. Herethe earth rests ia winter; thero theyhave no winter, and her rest is in thesummer. Hero we have storm aud heat,and cold; thero they have no storms orruin in summer, ai.d only rain in win-ter. IJ'era our trees shed their leaves ;there they we.ir their varnished cover-ing the year lound, while some of themlike the bronzed maurona, shtd theirlark annually, and keep on. their bright,green, waxen loaves. Here tho wood-pecker goes to the old t n c and knocksand wakes up the worm, and then pecksin and cuts him ; aud there tho wood-pecker bores a thousand holt>s in thegreat piue trie, iuto each of which hethrusts an acorn into which tho millerdeposits an egg, and which the wood-pecker calls nnd takes, after it has be-come a good-sized worm. Tho blue jays arrayed in a strange dress, and chat-ters iu notes equally utrango. The larkeings in sweeier notes, but they are alljew. Here the owl lives in the hollowtreo ; thero he burrows in the groundwith tho strange gray, ground-eiiuirrelor in tlie hole of the raUiesuake, or inthat of the prairie dog.

Here the elder is a bush, there I havesoon it a treo :vhose trunk is a foot indiameter. Here the lemon verbena in alower pot p h u t ; there it i-i a bush niuo"eet high. Hero the mustard seed yielda small plant ; there it is a tree often 17feet high. Hero wo havo a few gropo-vines in a grapery ; there you will Cud5,000 acres in a single vineyard. Here,ou will f-ee a single oleander beautify-ng a single parlor ; there you will Cud aJtiiidicd slumps in full blossom in a bin-f,a yard, amid what looks like showersof roses Here we make the Ethiopian:alla blooai in the conservatory ; theroI luos.soms iu every graveyard, and at

the head of almost every grave. Herowe hivo the thick green luif on our soil;thure thny havo no turf, and not a dan-delion, daughter cf the turf, grows in

II California, Here the stsn paints therass greon ; there it turns it brown.—

Here ycu see the farmer caiefully hous-ng his bay, and little patch of whe.tt;

there he cuts no hay except to supply thecities, and reaps and threshes bis wheatn the fields, and throws the bags down

to lie all Rammer, sure that neither rainnor dew will hurt it. Here you havescores of trees out of which to makeyour tools ; there you havo no tree out

f which you can make a wagon hub orspoke, a plough, a harrow, an ax-helve,or a hoe-haudle. Here everything is(•mall; there the trees aud ull the vegetable world aro so large that you aretempted to doubt your owu eyes.

You now feel that you aro in a strangeplace; tiio ground burns your feet, theair chokes and suffocates you. The at-mosphere is filled with the smell cf sul-phur, nitric acid, and every other disa-greeable smell you can imagioe. Atyour feet boils out a stream of alum.—Perhaps two feet from that is another ofnitric aeid, or Epsom salts, or soda, orpure sulphur, or sulphuric acid, or am-monia. Here is a deep-mouthed open-ing up which is boiling a huge volumeoi liquid as black as ink. I t is calledthe 'Devil 's Inkstand." Tho ink withwhich I am now writing this manuscriptcame from this inkstand, and I am usingit just as it was made there. A littleabove is gthe "Witch's Caldron," per-haps seven feet in diameter, black, boil-ing, epouting and raging. I ts depth isuuknown. All these aro boiling steam--ing hot; more than ft thousand of thesosteam holes are in this cauon. On yourleft is the "Steamboat," where, highabove your head, the steam spouts ai:droars like the letting off the steam whentho steamboat stops. Thrust your stickinto tho sido of the hill anywhere, andtho steam will ru*h ou*. You seem tobe treading on tho very borders of theinfernal pit. What with the steam, theheat, the smells, your head grows dizzyand whirl?, you pact for breath, and youhasten to get out. But you must stopat one more spot. I t is called tho "Dev-il's Tea-kettle," where the steam inter-mits, and sputters, and wheezes, HS ifgroaning in chains. You stick your caneinto it, and, whew! it roars and sputterslike a huge cat when astracge cat comesinto the room. You always expect totoo tho horns of the Evil Oi:c thrust upnext. The place is so strange that youwant to stay longer, but feel that itwould kill you. You cau compare it tonothing but hell. I t is called ' 'the Plutou Canyon." In the cold of tho eveni-ng or the morning, or iu cold weather,the steam of this groat concealed fur-naoe rises up, and is seen afar off. Were

ie of ice to be thrown over it, thesteam would bo so sufi'oca'.ing that co-body cou'ul go near it. Thoro are probably hundreds, if not thousands, of oritices in which you could roast eggs. 1'.is taid that you might stand at themouth of the canyon u:d hook a trout in

\g brook, and by l u r i n g round inyour tracks, you can let him down andboil him in one oi" these little naturalkettles.By all I had K .'.1, before visit-

ing the Ueysors, 1 h« ate tobe volcanic, and that Jiru waa tha causeof all this heat, and that it must bo notfery far from the surface of tho earth,aud that the Gsyeen were ivally safety

| valves for the prevention of earthquakes,' A very short examination convinced mts

that my notions were all wrodg, that theyarc not voicanie, but a great chemicallaboratory.

I found here iron, that whiJi makesthe ia!;y water, uluui, aiu'mbuii, sulphu-

ric acid, nitrio acid, sulphur, Epsomgaits, in large crystals; acid water,which sweetened a little, makes goodlemonade; magnesia, soda, and ooespring said to he extraordinary in its ef-fects a? an eye-water. Tho alum springis one hundred and seventy-sis degreesby the theFmometer, and the Witches'Caldron, one hundred and ninety-fivoand one half degrees. Now, fill thesegreat mountains with these several chem-icals, and let in the water upon them,and let what is left of it make this littlePluton Brook, and yon have all the phenomena which you find here. Tho wholeregion, abounding in sulphur and hotsprings, is a hidden treasury of chemis-try. Not far from tho Geysers is ClearLake, where they dredge up the bottom-mud and find clear, beautiful, crystal-ized borax, and can got, if they can sell,six tons a d;iy.

There is no place in the world whereborax so pure and so abundant can bobo found ; that found in Thibet comesnearest to if, but the borax is far inferi-or in quality aud in quantity, aud so inChina.

To me it seems clear that tho day iscoming when Science will come hero anduncover these hidden things, and bringout most likely, in almost fabulous quan-tities tho treasures here now concealedI can almost imagine some Yankeestanding over the Devil's Inkstand anddipping up ii.k enough for the use of acontinent. Here, or near here, undouhtedly, is eu'phur enough to furnisha nation with gunpowder : and I writedown the Geysers, not merely es a placewhere men will go to be horrified, butwhere they will go at n. future day formaterials to be used for the good omen ; and those that now seem to be thebreathing holes of the pir, are ouly theway-marks by which God shows us whoreto look for these chemicals, laid up tilcalled for.

I am ;iwaro that this view destroysmuch of the romance of the thing ; forit is far more romaulic to feel that whave stood over a volcano, just ready toburst out, or over regions infernal, wherdemons aro panting, and struggling, andgroaning, and you can almost bear thiolanking of their chains, than to feel thayou aro in a huge chemical shop, whorethe chemicals have got thrown togetheraud water from the hydrant has brokenout, and cou'iuues to run in amonthem. But that under this coverinthere are rich hidden treasures, whichwill cno day bless the world, I have nodoubt.

"Ephraim"' I said, "you were presentat the social entertainment which theGovernor gave to the Democratic mem-bers of the Senate."

"Yes, sah I" answered Ephraim, dis-playing, as be spoke, a wealth of ivoryin his ample mouth sufficient to makean elephant envious.

Ephrairn," I asked, "were SenatorsPierce, Murphy, Tweed, Norton, Cream-er, Bradley, Genet, Caldwell, Graham,Morgan, Banks, Hardenburg, Blood,Chris Norton, Sanford, Dord aud Hub-bard present on that interesting occa-sion ?"

"Yes, Sah !" answered* Ephraim1."Ephraim," I asked, "while this par*

ty was devoting its time to the eDJoy-ment cf social intercourse and to thediscus-fion of questions of public interestdid not Senator Murphy remark that hewould wish to rehabilitate, in theirancient prerogative of self government,tho inhabitants of the Empire State whowere now suffering from badly constitut-ed commissions, inflicted upon themthrough legislative interference, andcomposed of men who were nothingmore than the myrminous of a minori-ty. Were not those his words, Eph-raim ?"

"Then, Ephraim," said I, "if you canrecall any siuglo remark of SenatorMurphy, and will give it to me in hisexact language, you will greatly obligaan earnest s-jekcr of tho truth as it is innewspapers."

"Do gcmnian said he would take alittle ob do boned turkey," answeredEphraim p-omptly.

"Ephraim," I continued, "let me in-terrogato you further. K d not SenatorCreamer express the opinion that tbaLegislatures endorstment oi the Fif-teenth Amendment should be reoindedat tho forthcoming session ? And, inspeaking of that subject, did he notcondemn, with considerable bitterness,this attempt of the General Governmentto foist upon an unwilling people a lawwhich made tho negro tbo social andpolitical cqua! of the children of theCaucasian race?"

"N<>, sah ("answered Ephraim,"What then did ho s»y ?""He said as how he'd prefer a piede

question which I wish to put to you,and I bespeak for it a candid answer.Did not Senator Blood oppose the pres-ent system of contracts on tho canals,and did he not siy that he would takegrounds against it V

"No, sah ! he said he would taiobrandy and water," answered Ephraim.

She accepted, andhe gladly gave her the jewel, believing,perhaps, with Ovid :

'• Who gains a kiss and prain? nomore,"Deserves to lose the bliss lie got before."His suit did not prosper, however, as

ho had hoped. A t the end of a monthhe presented her with another diamond,and received a second salute, but beyondthatLe did not go.

At the end of a year, ho had partedwi.h nearly all of his diamonds, andwas as far from success as evor. Irri-tated by he stubborness, he sought aninterview, and upbraided her for her re-sistance.

' I have no more diamonds to giveyou," he s^id.

' Then," sho replied, " I have nomoro kisses."

" What am I to do? Your heart i»made of ice. Give me some word ofof hope."

" I cau't do that, bat I'll give you aword of counsel."

" What is it ?"" Never buy your first kiss of a wo-

man. If you do, though you were thoCzar himself, you would be a bankruptbefore you reached her heart."

Sight Air.An extraordinary fallacy is the dread

of night air. What air can we breatheat night but night air ? The choice isbetween puro night air from without orvitiated night air within. Most peopleprefer the latter. An unaccountablechoice. What will they say if it isproved to be true that folly one-half ofall the diseases we suffer from is occas-ioned by people sleeping with their win-dows shut ? An open window, mostnights in tho year, can never hurt anyono. This is not to say that light is notnecccBsary for recovery. In great cities,night air is often the best and purest airto be had in twenty-four hours. I couldbetter understand shutting the windowsin town during the day than during thenight, for the sake of the sick. Theabsence of smoke, the quiet, all tend tomake a night the best time for airingthe patient.

One of the highest medical authoritieson consumption aud climate has told methat the air of London is never so goodas after ten o'clock at night. Alwaysair your rooms, then, from the outsideair, if possible Windows are made toopen, doors, are made to shut—a truthwhich seems exceedingly difficult of ap-prehension. Every room must be airedfrom without—every passage from with-in. But tho fewer passages there are inan hospital the better.—Florence Night'ing tile.

Funding the National Debt.

In the Senate, on Wednesday, Mr.Suuiner introduced a bill to au horizethe funding of the natioual debt, and toextend banking facilities and to establishspecie payments. He paid the bill con-templated the prompt extinguishment ofthe 5-20s of 18G2, and upon a certainperiod of notice, say six months, BO thatdistant holders in Europe may be ad-vised that the interest on 5 20s of 1862•hall cease, and the bonds be forthwithredeemed in coin.

for "a ladies1 oour*o" will be heard, and

therein is the real danger to tbe Univer-

I t miyht be well, however, for the

Regents, in view of their action, to add

a special course or two to the curricu-

course in household chemistry, parallel

to that in analysis, in which young-

feo, sweets end aeids, vegetablo and

mineral^ilkalies, grains aud fruits, and

their best modes and mauner of preser-

economy, including a knowledge of

IN a recent speech CIIARI.ES DICKENS,

referring to a general misapprehension

or misrepresentation of his declared po-

no faith iu the people (with a small p)

governing ; but entire faith in the people

(with a large P) governed. He put in-

finite trust in the masses ; none, what-

j ever, in the so-called ruling class,"

Whieh exactly harmonizes with cur ex-

pl-ination. Since las late vi=.it to Amer-

ica, his "fnith in the people governing"

—the Radicals, has "gin eout," while

his l;ft;ilh iu tho People governed"—the

Democracy, is bigger than the grain of

mustard seed; aye, is entire He pats

''it;linitn trust in the tnnsses," another

phrase for "the Paople governed," but

Quders will uow rest content. They

Values have nearly approximate!a normal condition without producing an;wide-spread disaster.

The .Igrirultnral Soritly.An nnnsnally full meeting of the Board—

17 membera being present—of Managers oftlie Washtenaw futility Agricultural Soci-ety u;is beld at the oilice of D. CBAKBR,Secretary, on Wednesday last, pursuantto adjournment, the President, LYMA.N 8.WOOD, in the chair.

The following business was transacted •JOHN S. NOWX.AXD, of Scio, was el

Superintendent <>i' ii;o grounds, and E. T.WALKER, of 8a!em, Marshal foi- the pres"Hit year.

Tlie Secretary was directed to (investigatethe claims of Charles Haloes, Abram Moe,and John Coyle to premiums, with author-ity to draw orders for tiic payment of thesame If found il:;*.

The following committees were appoiucd.

Business Commute—T). M. Uhl. J. O. L<land, Hiram Arnold, Sampson Parker, anNelson Booth.

On Claims—J. (I. Leland, Lymau S. Wooiami E. Ii. Pond.

On Title to Seal Estate nnd J.ife Members—E. E Pond, J. U. Leland, Bob't. McColland 1). M. Fiuley.

The following additional Rule was adoptC d :

" Hereafter no premium slmil be paid t'any person uulciS he shall claim the samiwithin cur year, and annuslly thereafteuntil the Board of Managers have passecon the same."

On motion of QEO. C. ARMS, tlie following resolution was unanimously adopted:

Jiesohed, That no animal shall competefor premium in but one Class at the sam<exhibition of the Society, except when en-tered with a Herd or for a Sweepstake preinium.

The grounds heretofore cultivated neaithe dwelling were ordered leveled, seeded,and pastoral, ami the Business Committeewere instructed to build fifty oj en cattlestalls ou south side o( Fair Grounds, previ-ous to the next Fa r.

Adjourned to Tuesday, March 8th, at 11o'clock A. at

A meeting was held at Dexter, inCostellos Hall, on Wednesday afternoon,January 6th, to consider a proposition toaid, by loan, the Toledo, Ann Arbor andNorthern Railroad. The meeting was pre-sided over by X. A. PITBLPS, Eeq . and wasaddressed by ClIAS. II RICHMOND, of thiscity, A^ent of the Company, and Col. A. I).CRAXE and Dr. EwisG, ol Dexter, and oth-ers, after Which tne following resolutionwas adopted :

Iitsolced, That it is the sense of this meet-ing that the township of Bclo vole aid (byway of a loan) to any railroad from ;

passing through OH convenient to the villageof Dexter, to the amount of 5 per cent, onher assessed valuation.

Five percent, ou the assessed valuationof Scio would be a fraction over -fOl.OOO.

— Ic would seem from the tenor of theresolution that our Dexter friends have notyet lost all faith In the vitality ol ihe Lan-sing project, and are not yet ready tostrike hands with the Toledo and AnnArbor organization. Their situation is likeunto that of the rollicking lover who sang:

•-C), I coald be happy with eithar,With L'otlic;- tluiu1 cbarmer away."

— A meeting was heM at WhitmoreLake on Tuesday,—which was very wellattcuded considering the prcvallingstoriD—to consider the question of railroad aid.The meeting organized by electing GKO.SUTTOX, F>sq., Chairman, who briefly stat-ed the objects o( the meeting. Mr. RICHMOKD then addressed the meeting setting(orth the advantages the farmers of Xortli-fleld would derive from a railroad runningNorth and South ; the cheapening offrelghtson produce, and a corresponding increaseof price to the producer; the opening of acompeting market at Toledo, with newlines of road to the sciiboarci; the access tothe lumber of the Northern portion of theState; the bulldinj! up of a thriving villageat the Lake, ease of access alonenecessary to make it a summer resort, etcAfter his remarks a committee of three,consisting of .Messrs. J ICOB8, QltoVES, andWALL, was appointed to consider the sub-ject and prepare and report a iletliiite propo-sition to au adjourned meeting, to be heldat WALSH'S Corners on Wednesday next, a12 o'clock i\ M., to which day, hour andplace the meeting adjourned. The feelingseemed favorable to the project, and North-Held may be relied upon to go her "bottomdollar" in aid of the Toledo, Ann Arborand Northern Railroad.

It is understood that there is consid-erable feeling in the eastern and southernportions of the town of Northflold againstaiding by loan or tax the Toledo, AnnArbor and Northern Railroad. The groundof the opposition is stated to be the fact,that Ann Arbor will continue to be therailroad station for the parts of the townnamed, and that, therefore, no new railroadfacilities will be afforded. Those whoraise this objection should remember thatgetting at Ann Arbor the competition of andchoice between two systems of railroads toand from the great eastern markets, withthe ohoice of Toledo or Detroit as theirhome market, they will reap all the bene-fits that do the residents of the westernand northern portions of the town who willmake Whitmore Lak« their station. Andmore too, for the shipper at WhitmoreLake must transship at Ann Arbor If lieseeks the Detroit market, while the farmermarketing his produce at Ann Arbor mayunload at cither depot. This advantagewill fully compensate for their distancelroni the line of the new road.

A very few of our subscribera thinkIt rather rough to be charged $2Ta year forthe AHOUS with wheat swinging aroundWell, they needn't pay in wheat We'lltake the pay when they sell their butter at80@35c, or their eggs at 80c., which arti-cles they used to be giud to let us have, thefirst at 15c , the second at 10c. When pa-per, ink, type, etc., come down to ante-war prices, and other articles of livingalong with the single cheap article flourwe shall bo glad to reduce the AHOUS tc$1.50 a year. We can't do it before, unlesswe can get our family bo irded free.

That ancient fellow who in a lit of his-torical inspiration writ: "There was novela Jauuary without a thaw," is now at liberty to count another one in his reports, ama big thaw, too.

Atbout half past eleven A.

At tiiis momentf suspense an unconditional surrender wasemanded by the President of the party,r an immediate evacuation of the preniK», when the key of the door woulde turned upon him until the feast wasver.

on ler tho above head, lias, among otherthings, the following :

There aro men who mistake a totalwant of system foi-J an overwbj>ressuro of business-. They wonder whya vast amount of work produce? s > litiloin nsult. Their operations are a masn«.f confusion—they do everything byhip skip. They hare no distinct view ofproper fitnu maoagemoot before theirevi.-i, and they blunder through thework of the year, laboring very hard atsonic unimportant operations, anl omit-ting others of greater consequenoo andmere easily performed. They i.ro likethe shop keeper who wculd throw hisgoods together in a promisctious beap,which Lo would spend nine-'e ths of hislinio in overhauling t< j find what liehappened to want. Well ordered farmwork, oo the contrary, is like tho Deathrhd systematically arranged shelves oftlio skillful shop-keeper, where every-thing is seoo at a gluuco and selectedfor the occasion.

To make fanning plaasant it must besuccessful. To make it profitable, etery-thing must move on liko a perkctsmoothly running machine. To accom-plish this result the farmer must knowbeforehand just what ho has to do. Hemust map out for tho year all his intend-ed operations, and be prepared to meetall their requirements. If this prear-rangement is careful and thorough it willbo Kuccsssfuily carried out; if ha* yand partial it will result in eonNow that tho labors of tho season haveabout closed it will bo a suitable oppor-tunity, when everything is fresh in thememory, to digest the wvvk of tixing year.

A SKELETON GIANT IN XIU: OIL I!::-cioNS.—On Tuetday morning last, whileMr. Williaiu Thompson, assisted byKobert R. Smith, svas engaged in mak-ing an excavation near the house of theformer, about half a mile north of WesiHickory, preparatory to erecting a dcrrick, they exhumed an enormous helmetof iron, which was corroded with dust.Farther digging brought to light asword, which measured uino feet inlength. Curiosity incited them to en-largo the hole, and after some little timethey discovered the bones of tno enor-mous feet. Following up the " lead ;

they had so unexpectedly struck, in afew hours' time they had unearthed awell-preserved skeleton of an enormousgiant, belonging to a species of the hu-man family which probably inhabitedthis and other parts of tho world at thattimo of which the Bible speaks, when itsays "And there were giants in thosedays." The helmet is siiid to be of thoshape of thoso found among tho ruins ofNineveh. The boues of tho skeletonarc remarkably white. Tho teeth areall in their places, and all of them medouble and of extraordinary size. Theserelics have been taken to Tiouesta,where they are visited by large numbersof people daily. When his giantshipwas in the flesh ho must have stood 18feet in his stockings. These remarkablerelics will be forwarded to New Yorkearly nest week. The joints of theskeleton aro now being glued together.These remains were found about 12 feetbelow the surface of a mound whichhad been thrown up probably centuriesago, and which was not more than threefeet above the level of tho ground aroundit. Here is another nut for antiiputiatjito crack.— Oil City Times.

A gentleman was ono day opening abox of dry goods. His little son wasstanding near, and as his father took thopackages from the boix, lie laid some ofthem upon the arm of the boy. A littlefriend and playmate of tho merchant'spon was standing by, looking on. Aspackage after package was had upon thearm of the boy, his little friend began tofear his load was becoming too heavyand said :

"Johnny, dorrt you think you've gotas much as you can carry ?"

"Never mind," dear little Johnny an-swered in u sweet, happy tone, ''fatherknows low much 1 cau cany. '

Brave, trusting little fellow ! IIo didcot grow restless orimpatie t under theburden, heavy though it doubtless secra-cd. There was no danger, ho felt, thathis father would Iny a load on him tooheavy for him, His father knew hisstrength, or rather the weakness of thatKttle arm, end would not overtask it.More than all, his father loved him, audtherefore could not harm him.

It is such a spirit of loving trust inhim that God desires all Hischildreu topossefs. He says : "Except ye be con-verted, and become as little children, yeshall not enter tho Kingdom of Heaven."

Dg Wagons.Few people fully appreciate the im-

portance of thoroughly lubricating' theaxles, etc., of wagons aid carriages.and fewer know what are the best mate-rials and the best method* of applyingthem. A ivcll-niado wheel will endurecommon wear from ten to twenty-fiveyears, if care is taken to use the rightkind and proper amount of grease; butif this matter ia not attended to, theywill be used up in fivo or six years.Lard should never bo used on a wagon,for it will penetrate tho hub, and workits way out around the tftiions of thespokes, aud spoil tho wheel. Tallow isthe best lubricator for wooden axlc-treosand castor oil for iron. Just greaseenough should be applied to the spindleof a wagon to give it a light coating ;this is better tliau more, for the surpfusput on will work out at the ends, and boforced by the shoulder bands and nutwadiers into the hub around the outsideof tho boxes. To oil an axle-tree, firstwips tho spindle clean with a cloth wetwith epirits of turpentine, and then ap-ply a lew drops of castor oil near theshoulders and end. One teaspoonfal issuHicieut lor the whole.

POTATO POULTICT: —Perhaps it is notgenerally known how much more p!asant-«r and more agreeable, as well as rnoroefficacious, is a poultice made of potatoesthan one mado of bread. It keeps heatlonger, c a n La r o heated several t:me,sand does not wet the clothing Peelnoil ard mash tho potatas; enclose in aBiuslinbag, and apply to tho affectedpart. To boil them in hot water has avery soothing effect, enhancee their vir-tue. A poultice made of boiled beansw by some thought to be belter than po-Utties, but both are worthy of a trial.

Ayer'sHair Vigor,

For restoring Gray Hair toits natural Vitality and Color.

A dressing whichis at once ngrccable,healthy, and effectualfor preserving thohair. Faded or grayhair is soon restoredto its original colorwith the gloss andfreshness of youth.Thin hair is thick-

ened, falling hair checked, aud bald-ness often, though not always, curedby its use. Nothing can restore thehair -where the follicles are destroyed,or the glands atrophied and decayed.But such as remain can be saved forusefulness by this application. Insteadof fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.Its occasional use will prevent the hairfrom turning gray or falling ofF, audconsequently prevent baldness. Freefrom those deleterious substances whichmako some preparations dangerous andinjurious to the hair, the Vigor cauonly benefit but not harm it. If wantedmerely for a

HAIR DRESSING,nothing else can be found so desirable.Containing neither oil nor dye, it doc3not soil white cambric, aud yet lastslong on the hair, giving it a rich glossylustro aud a grateful perfume.
