A Short Sermon for Parents.

Ii is said that when the mother Of
Washington was asked how she formed
the character Of her son. she replied
that she had endeavo.ed early TO teach
him three things, obedience, diligence,
and truth. No better advice can be
given TO any parent.
Teach your children TO obey. Let
il be the first lesson. You can hardly
begin too soon. One Of the most sue.
cessful parents that have known. said
that this point was usually settled be.
tween him and his children before three
months old. II requires constant care
10 keep up the habit Of obedience, and
especially to do itin such way as not
TO break down the strength Of q child's
character.
Teach your child TO be diligent. o.
The habit Of being always employed IS
a great safeguard through life, as well
as essential to the culture Of almost
every virtue. Nothing can be more
foolish than an idea which parents have
that it is not respectable 10 set their
children to work. Play is a good thing,
innocent recreation is an employment,
and a child may learn to be diligent in
that as in other things. But let then,
learn early to be useful.
AS to truth; it is the one essential
thing. LIE, every thing else be sacri-

Patent Flour Barrel Mandatory.

Messrs. Humphrey and Dodge, two
ente.prising men, have established q
Mandatory with patent Machinery
10 make -four barrels in Williamstown,
Oswego County. The Mandatory IS
on the head waters of Fish Greek and
employs from so TO IS men, and turns
out easily 400 -four barrels in day.
They arc manufactured entirely by
machinery, each stave taking, in the
process Of manufacturing, the same po.
sition it occupies in the barrel, when
set up; consequently all the barrels
must be precisely alike. All the slaves
are o: the same width, and after they
have been seasoned, are placed through
the finishing machine, where they are
planned, jointed, creased and champer.
ed. The planning gives the barrel .
beautiful appearance; the croze is sim.
liar to the croze for tight work, and the
chime is left thick and strong. The
barrel varies in shape from the article
now in use, and is supposed to have
many advantages on that account: Il
is about II inches shorter and has an
l8 inch head, with the Same sized bilgs
rs other barrels. On account OF their
size, one fifteenth is gained in storage,
and at the same time, the barrel being
fuller in the quarter, will allow 1886 lbs.
Of flour to be packed looser than in the
present shape. The heading is also
passed through machinery. which gives
it the same accuracy as the slaves.
Oswego affords the largest market for
-four barrels in the world, requiring for
its own use at least million OF barrels
per annum, beside the ordinary Cana;

MICHIGAN SOUTHERN RAILROAD ComPANy.-
This company has leased the Erie and Kalamazoo
road from Adrian to Toledo, and is proceeding to
take energetic measures for the immediate consruc-
ton of the road to the Indiana ine and thence, by
an arrangement with the Buffalo and Mississippi
railroad, through the State Of Indiana, to the city
of Chicago. This is the nearest point from the
head waters of Lake Erie to Chicago, and with the
present efficient and energetic direction of the road
and the aid of the capitalists now engaged in the
construction, we may look forward to its early
completion. Already arrangements have been made
for the construction OF road from Buffalo TO the
State line, and from Cleveland to Erie A very
few years will witness the connection of the line Of
roads on the south shore of Lake Erie at Toledo
with this important work. And from Chicago to
Gaena, on the Mississippi river, road is already
constructing; making from the city of New York to
the Upper Mississippi a continuous connection Of
