APPRESTIcEsIIIP.-Apprenticeship is the
mos important stage Of life through which a
mechanic is called upon to pass. 1t is emphat-
ically the spring season of his days the time
when he Is sowing the seed, the fuits Of
which he Is 10 reap in after years If he spare
no labor in It's proper culture, he is sure OF OBJ
tanning an abundant harvest but if, in the
culture Of the mental soul, lie follow the ex-
ample of many in tillng the EARTH aud carless-
ly and negligenily does his work, like them he
will find the seeding time past, and his ground
bringing forth weeds and briars. Let the
young apI rentice bear in mind, when he COM
mences learning any business, that all hopes
OF success in the future IS doomed to fade
away like the morning mist unless he improve
the golden season. Let him bear in mind that
he can become master Of his business only
through the closest application, and the mot
persevering industry and that, unless he does
master il, he may bid farewell to all visions of
future prosperity and success. The appren-,
tee is the foundation for the great mechanical
cdilicc, and surely iflh foundation ola s,ruc-
turc be not firm, the structure itself trembles
and falls to the earth Then young friend
perseyerc be studious and attentive study
well all branches of your business, both pracIi-
cal and theoretical-and you will rot fail when
your time shall come to take an active part in
life, to be of use, not only in your own partic-
uIar business, but to society.

G-5-We arc convinced that the Railroad to
Fa'l River can be built TOW, if our citizens
will only arouse in the matter there is a
, strong feeling among those who can accom-
plish something if they will only put their en-.
crgcs in motion. Business men an others,
in New York and Boston, fee! the necessity
Of this road, and are taking about the matter,
as we learn from gentlemen who have just
visited both cities. There never was a more
favorable opportunity for ac.ion, than al tie
present time, since the proicct was frs. agtl.
4 ted and if it is not consumml;ci now, It
wll be entirely the fault of the people O.
Newrrn, and because they d. not want the
road
No man can conceyc the extent ol the hen
eft which every individual in Newport would
derive lrom this improvement it would be
felt al aloan lis influences and energies
would pass through every avenuc aud chan
mel Of the community, and accomplish very
much for our future prosperity.

Pmvideuce, have been lying in owr larb3r,

10 remain here several weeks b.!orc they can
reach their destination. Now, if our railroad
was in operation, all these vessels would TN
load here, aud their ireights would be tials-
ported over the road. There ate thousand
instances which we might name, if it WAS ne
ccssary, where Ills road would be iatea ad-
vantage Of TIE boas on the outside line are
the best on the Sound, and if they coa!d be
kel, in operation all through the winter, and
there was no danger Of bcirg locked IN by
