HOW TO MAKE MONEY.

The N. o. Picayune thus instructs its rea-
ders, and people generally -
Let the business of every body else alone,
and attend to your own. Don't buy what
you don't want. Use every hour to advan-
tage, and study to make even leisure hours
useful. Think twice before you throw away
dollar remember you will have another
to make for it. Find recreation in looking
after your business and so your business
will not be neglected in looking after recre-
alton. Buy low, and sell fair, and take care
of the profits. Look over your books reg
ularly and if you find an error Of a cent,
trace it out Should a stroke of misfortune
come upon you in trade, retrench and work
harder, bur never " fly the track" Con-
front difficulties with unfinching persever-
ance and they disappear at last. Though
you should even fail in the struggle you will
be honored but shrink from the track and
you will be despised. By following these
rules, however, you ''need not say fail."-
Pay debts promptly, and so exact your dues.
Keep your word. Take the papers. Ad-
vertise.

GRAvITArIoN. There is still great com
motion among the planets, in consequence
of tine forthcoming work refuting the New
tonian, theory. We understand that at a re-
cent meeting TO consider the subject, il was
only by a very small majority thar they final
w voted to continue their revolutions around
the sun in the usual manner, even after
very ardent address from that distinguished
luminary. The sun himself is sorely tried
at the threatened prospect Of loosing all his
attractive power over his satellites, but he
wisely ASSEMBLIES and puts smiling face on
the matter. Some suspicious are circulating
among influential characters in the solar sys-
ten, highly preludIcial to Madam Luna, it
being darkly intimated that she is the cause
of the forthcoming work explosive of the
Newtonian theory, by her influence upon the
brains of the authors. We rust that this
dreadful commOtion in the heavens may soon
be allayed by the appearance Of the work.
and that Sun. Moon and Planets may know
the worst at once. When shall we have il?

WITcHcRAFT.-Judge Blackstone never
found himself more embarrassed than in
treating upon the subject Of witchcraft in
his commentaries.-Dr. Gray, in his notes
on Hudibras, never mentions that Hopkins
the noted witch-inder, hanged sixty sus-
pected witches in one year; and he cites
Hutchinson on Witchcraft for the dreadful
number of 10000 that were burnt within
$50 years. The humane Judge Barring
ton likewise relates many horrid particu-
lars, with excellent remarks, in his obser-
vations on the Statutes Howell in one Of
his letters, dated 1917 says, that in two
years there were indicted, in Suffolk and
Essex only, between 200 aed 300 witches,
of whom more than one half were execu.
ted. 1t was not indeed until toward the
conclusion of the seventeenth century, that
the infamous superstition began at all to a.
bate.

GROWTH OF THE CIrY-In a recent ride
about the city, we counted one hundred and
twenty-four brick houses in course of con-
struction. OF this number, one third were
nearly complete, and will probably be ready
for occupants by the end ofthe presentmonth.
This little fact speaks volumns for the enter
prise and wealth of our mechanics, and also
for the growth of this same City of Notions,
Another fact in relation to this matter, which
is worthy Ofnotice is. that a large portion o!
the ground upon which the buildings are be
ing erected is made land, where but short
time since sloops, schooneTs, brigs, and YES
sells of no mean tonnage, lay moored or at all

BX GEORGE p. MORRIS.

BA GEORGE r MORRlS.
Upon the barren sand,
A single captive stood;
Around him came with boz and brand,
The red men Of the wood,
Like him of old his doom he hears,
Rock-bound on oceans brim-
The chieftain's daughter knelt in tears,
And breathed prayer for him.
Above his head in air,
The savage war club swung
The frantic girl. in wild despair,
Her arms about him flung.
Then shook the warrior of the shade.
Like leaves on aspen limb,
Subdued by that heroic maid
Who breathed a prayer for him.
"Unbind HIM" gasped the chief;
/" 1t is your kings decree!"
He kissed away the tears grief,
And set the captive freel
s'Thus, ever thus when in lrie's storm -
Hopes star to man grows dim,
An Angel kneels, in woman's form,
And breathes prayer for him.
