SLK.-Dr. Chas. Stuart of Breck
enridge county, KY, exhibited to u:
yesterday 500 skeins of sewing silk
manufactured in his family. 1t is Of
various colors, and IS pronounced ia
all respects 4 superior article. The
dying was done by his, wife, and the
colo-s are bright and fast. DIR. Stuart
and Mr.. Byrum, of Brandenburr,
have done much for the introduction
Of silk culture on the southern Ohio
border of Kentucky, as 4 part of the
ordinary domestic industry of small
farmers.
Wherever a patriotic and enter
prising gentleman cstob!ishe, Il CO.
coonery, the neighbors flock in to see
the operation Of breeding and feed
ing the worms, and of reeling and
spinning the silk; and they are sur
prised to find that the whole matter
is as simple as certain, and as much
| within the means Of the humblest far
mer, as the production of 4 patch of
flax, threshing out the seed, and break
ing, hacking, and spinning the flax.
Many, when they see all this with
their eyes, Immediately COM
mence the business, especially the
poor and those who have females and
children that can make nothing at
anything else. 1t is the opinion of
DIR. Stuart that the culture of silk is
now permanently established as one
branch Of National domestic indus
try, and that it will, in a short time,
be as common as raising fax. There
are few farmers Of the poorer class
that could not, without interference
with their farming operations or their
present domestic economy, produce
from forty TO a hundred dollars a year
an amount which would be so much
clear gain.-Lou. Journal.

ish. But very much may be done by en-.
couraging children when they do we'll.
Be ever more careful to express your ap.
probation of good conduct than disappro.
baton Of bad. Nothing can more dis
courage child than spirit Of incessant
fault finding, on the part Of its parents.
And hardly any thing can exert more
injurious influence upon the disposition
both of the parent and the child. There
are two motives influencing human &C.
tons, hooe and fear. But who would not
prefer TO have her child influenced to
good conduct by the desire Of pleasing,
rather than by the fear of offending! II
a mother never expresses her qualification
when her children do well, and is always
censuring when she sees any thing amiss,
they are discouraged and unhappy. They
feel that there is no use in trying to please.
Their dispositions become hardened and
soured by this ceaseless fretting. At last
finding that whether they do we'll or i'll,
they are equally found fault with, they re.
linquish all efforts to please, and become
needless of reproaches. Blu. let mother
approve of child's conduct whenever she
can. Let her show that his good beha-
vout makes her sincerely happy. Let
her reward him for his efforts TO please by
smiles and affection. In this way she will
cherish in her chid's heart some Of the
noblest and most desirable feelings OF our
nature. She will cultivate in him an
amiaole disposition and cheerful spirit.
Your child has been during the day
very good and obedient. Just before put
ting him to sleep for the night, you take
his hand, and say, "My son, you have
been a good boy to-day. 1t makes me
very happy to see you so kind and obe-
dent. God loves little children who are
dutiful TO their parents, and he promises to
make them happy" This appreciation
from his mother is to him great reward
And when with more than ordinary affec.
tionate tone, you say, "Good night, my
dear son." he leaves the room with his
heart full of feeling, and when he closes
his eyes for sleep, he is happy, and re.
solves that he will try to do his duty

If any thing in the world will make a
man feel badly, except plnching his fin
gers in tho crack Of a door, il is unques-
lionably, quarrel. No man ever fails
to think less OF himself after, than he did
before one-it degrsdcs him in the eyes
Of others; and, what is worse, blunts bis
Senslbility TO disgrace on The one hand,
and increases the power and passionate
irritablliiy on the other. The truth s, the
more quietly and peaceably We all get on,
the better; the better for ourselves, the
better for our neighbors. In nine cases
out OF ten, the wIsest course is, if man
cheats you, quit dealing with him if he
be abusive, quit his company fine SLAM
der you, take care to live SO that nobody
will believe him. No matter who he is,
or how he misuses you--the wisest way
is just to let him alone, for there is no.
thing better than this cool, calm and quiet
way of dealing with the wrongs we meet
with.

lst. That by the Constitution Of the

the State is established to decide all ques-
tons between Pennsy wanna and any for

I'd That before that tribunal, judgment
can be obtained for every dollar, prnci-
pal and interest, that the State owes, and
that the property of the State can be sold
to pay the judgment.

are bound to carry into execution, by

will re very apt to be pushed. Ii II is
sound law that States can be sued ia the
