Fire Wood.

Now. ii. the winter season, is the time
for the farmer 10 prepare his fire wood
for the year. Wood cut in winter,
makes much better fuel than that cut
when the tree is growing and the pores
filled with sap. Many persons have no.
ticed that some wood. rather stews away
than burns clearly. Such fuel, generally
was cut in summer or during the warmer
par, of the year. The winter also is a
time of more leisure to the farmers than
most other seasons Of the year. There
Is more cheerfuness in the appearance
of a burning fire, than the smouldering
combustion of wood, though dry, that
was cut in summer. Some kinds of
hard wood, however, will at whatever
season it may have been cut, as the hck-
Dry, sugar-tree and the close grained
oaks on high dry, ridges, where the soil
is not rich, and tue growth is slow, and
these will bum well when green; but
fires are not so easily made with green
wood, nor as easily maintained. unless a
large fire is kept. The writer has for
many years habi,ually, knowing the
above facts, had annual supplies OF wood
cut and piled in the woods in the winter.
The dry winds in March soon season ii.
The piles should be ranged N. and S.,
SD that the sun can shine on the ends of
the wood and the wind pass more freely
through its interstices. '.. @.." '''

The Hon. WILLIAM f. JOHNSON, Gov.
OF the State Of Pennsylvania, who was
nominated BY the Wing Legislative eau
Gus as their candidate for U. S. Senator,
has declined the nomination, on the
ground that his present position precludes
him from accepting it. The following
is the essential part of his letter to the
Wing members of the Legislature:
ain 1913 the people of Pennsylvania
conferred upon me for the term Of three
years the office OF Governor, Before
the election, pledges were given, and by
the acceptance of the office renewed,
that my entire energies of body and mind
should be devoted to the faithful perfor-
nance of the duties of the chief magis-
trate, and that the promotion of the in
terests and welfare of my constituents
should be alone the object of my ambi-
ton. Regarding the obligation OF these
pledges, could not conscientiousiy a
bandon my present position"

- II is worthy of remark that on the oc-
cas,on of the late election of Governor
by the Legislature of Massachusetts,
Governor Briggs, who received twenty
thousand votes more for that office than
any other man, was not permitted by the
Coalition to go TO the Senate as candi-
date. In his place they sent Mr.. Phil
lips, who received less than half as many
votes as Gov. Briggs. And this was
done with the concurrence of the "De-
mocracy." who profess to do every thing
in the name and at the command OF the
mgority among the people! What do
they expect for themselves and their
party hereafter! -,,.s a.. .e

Fashionable Training.

Among other novelties of the season,
in fashionable costume, we sec that the
train of half century ago has been re-
.vived, and threatens to become perfect
innovation. We are afraid the practical
character of the age will not allow this
fashion TO prevail to any extent. Be-
sides. like the moustache on a gen;le-
mans face, it is exceedingly becoming to
a few, but positively disfguring to many.
Ii gives grace and dignity to tall, shape
ly figure, and a swan-like, undulating
movementto slow and even gait; but
to short figure, ord lively iempera-
ment, iii a serious disadvantage. The
Home Journal, in speaking Of this new
fashion, suggests that a certificate res.
pecGully endorsed, that the same amount
OF velvet had been bought, and was in
the possession of a lady at home, might
be pinned upon the skirt and answer the
same or better purpose, as nobody sees
the train, in the crowd, out every BODY
freads upon it.-N. Y. Tribune. se -

IMPORTANT INvENTIoN.-.4n. .4uton,n.
ton Stnapstress.--Mr.A Allen b: Wilson,
OF Piusfeld, Massachusetts, has recent
ly obtained patent for a machine by
which sewing of all descriptions is exe-
cuted in a very rapid manner, and in
fineness and strength superior to hand
work. a"#
The simplicity of the mechanism.
dlminutiyenes. and the amount of work
which it accomplishes, are truly aston
ishing. A single machine occupies so
little space that it can be put inside a
mans hat, and by the turning OF small
crank, the instrument will sew ten times
faster than any sempstress. 1t can be
used FOR any kind of sewing, fine or
coarse or for embroidery. Every part
of mans dress, coat, vest and panta-
loons-buttons holes excepted-can be
made By this machine, also, ladies' dress
es, shirt bosoms, caps, collars, &c. In
fact, there is scarce single branch Of
needlework to which this instrument can
not be applied, sewing ten times faster,
finer. and stronger than by hand.

A new Interpretation N Of the Con-
StitutiOn.

A second Daniel has come to judg-
ment in the person Of Elizur Wright.
editor of the Boston Chronotype, who
now startles the world with the declara-
lion that the General Government has
full power to abolish slavery, not only
in the territories, but in the States them
selves! He not only asserts, but is pre-
pared to PROVE, this TO be The jus, and
natural construction Of the constitution,
and that the contrary has only obtained
through ignorance or fraud! He expects
to sustain this position with such cogen-
cy of reasoning and omnipo,ence of ar
gument, that the civilized world will i'm.
mediately "knock under" and wonder
they have been held in the chains of ig-
norance so long. To this end. he has
issued 10000 copies Of tie Chronoty pc,
refulgent with this new light, expressly
for the edifcation Of the 10000 lawyers
in the United States, who are strongly
urged to adopt it as guide in their prac-
tice and legal decisions.
