THE C.4SE ST.fTED.

A powerful stream had run over the
falls, in a certain neighborhood, since
tho creation. The people on the bank
had long admired the stream and fall, but
they could not control or use it, having
neither money nor skill. The people got
their living by raising hops, with little
corn, and potatoes; aud poultry was their
principal stock, as the land, being mostly
pine barren, yielded little grass. That
which was cultivated was worth only SIS
an acre, and much of it was common,
worth nothing.
Alb and c, came among them, bought,
a hundred acres of land, including the
falls, giving $40 an acre. They laid out
$4,000. in building a strong dam and
factory. Whey paid $4,000 10 the peo-
pie for Labor, for quarrying stones, making
bricks, and putting up the factory and
dam, and $1,000 went for nails, glass,
&c. They paid 81 day for labor, and
doable for lumber to what it ever brought
before. The clay and stones were be-
fore worth nothing. They paid for la
Dor, as we before said, 81, when before la
Dor on the spot yielded only 25 cents
worth of hops, potatoes, &c, and when
they went out TO work among farmers on
better soil they got Sl3a month.
After the factory was finished they hi
red all the young men at 81 day, and
the young women at 90 cents. Land rose
in the vicinity, so that many got $1,000
for that which was not before worth 100.
The farmers round got one-third more for
their hay, corn and potatoes. Vegetables,
which were worth nothing before, except
to eat, now brought ready market.-The
articles manufactured were sold to the
people lower than ever before, as they
were free Of duties and transportation.
At the end of ten years they reckoned
all up. A. E. and G. had doubled their
money. The land for four square miles
was doubled in value-in the village, is
times its former value. Thirty thousand
dollars worth OF houses had been built
from the savings Of the laborers, and busi-
ness continues.
Now we commend A. B. and G. and
consider them benefactors. Our opponents
call them dri,tocrats, who have Scattered
their own nestp' out Of the hard earning,

"Beiter Laugh than Cry."-So say we

"Better Laugh than Cry."-So say we.-
There's no use in rubbing ones eyes and blub-
bering over all "the ills that flesh is heir to."--
Red eyes, caused by any thing but brandy, or
It's kindred, are scandalous looking affairs:-
The best way is to "stand up to the rack" and
take the good things and the evil as the come
along-without repining-always cheering
yourself with that philosophical ejaculation,
''better luck next time"
Is dame fortune as shy as the weasell Tell
her to go to thunder, and laugh her in the face.
The happiest fellow that ever we saw, slept
upon plank, and hadn't a shilling in his peck
eft, nor a coat on his back.
Do you find disappointment lurking in many
a prize! Then throw it away, and laugh at
your own folly for pursuing it.
Does fame elude your grasp? Then laugh
at the fools that are often her votaries. She's
of no consequence any how, and never butter
ed piece of bread, nor furnished a man q
clean dickey.
Take our advice in all circumstances, 10
laugh "dull care awayT' Don't be in a hurry
to get out of the world. 1t is good world
considering the people who inhabit il, and is
just about as full of fun as it well can be-
You never saw a man cut his throat with a
broad grin upon his face; il is grand prevent
i've of suicide. There is philosophy and res
ligion, too, in laughing-it shows a clear
conscience and sincere gratitude for the good
th.cgs of life, and elevates him above the brute
creation.

Her average speed by the log was twelve
and a half knots per hour, and her average
pressure of steam eleven and half pounds
Her maximum revolutions were seventeen
and three quarters with thirteen pounds pres
sure, and with wheels set at twenty eight feet.
Her consumption of fuel is found to be one

enough for twenty-five days consumption-
We believe the Clyde burns twenty-eight hun

Every thing worked uncommonly we'll and

fire doors having been open most of the time.
