THE CROP OF AC0RNS.

BY LYDIA II. sIGoURNEY,
There came man, in days of old,
To hire piece of land for gold,
And urged his suit in accents meek,
One crop alone is all seek;
That harvest DER, my claim ! yield,
And to its lord resign the ficld.''
The owner some misgivings felt,
And coldly with the stranger dealt
But found his last objection fail
And honcyed eloquence prevail,
So took tho proffered price in hand
And for one crop leased out the land.
The willy tenant sneered with pride,
And sowcd the spot with acorns wide;
AT first like tiny shoots they grew,
Then broad and wide their branches threw
But long before those oaks sublime,
Aspiring, reached their forest prime
The cheated landlord mouldering lay,
Forgotten, with his kindred clay
y ye, whose years unfolding fair,
Arc fresh with youth, and free from care,
Should vice or indolencc desire
The garden of your souls to hire,
No parley hold-reject the suit,
Nor let one seed the soil pollute
My child, their first approach beware;
With firmncss break the insidious snare,
Lest, us the acorns grew and throyc
Into sun-excluding grove,
Thy sins, dark o'ershadowing tree,
Shut out the light of heaven from thee.

Neutrality-suspicious. everybody knows
what watch is and most people understand
its use but, after all, very few are aware Of It's
curious mechanism, nor have they any idea Of
the number Of pieces Of which it is compoSed.
1t is in fact one Of tho greatest cu,iosities that
human invention ever produced
Mr.. Dent, in II lecture before tho London
Royal Institute made IN allusion to the forma-
ton of u watch, in which he stated that
watch consists Of 992 pieces; and stated that
% trades and probably 2l5 pcrso arc en-.
ploycd in making ono Of those machines.
The iron Of which the balancc-spring is
formed is valued at something less than a
farthing; this produces an ounce of steel, which
is worth 4tad, which is drawn into ., $50 yards
of steel wire, and represents in the market 66
dollars.
Stilanother process of hardening this origin
ally farthing worth Of iron, renders it workable
into 1850 balance springs which will realize,
at the common price, 2s. Cd each, fs46 S.,
the effect Of labor alone Thus it may be
seen the mere labor bestowed upon u farthing
worth Of iron gives it the value Of ESi6 S..
or $i,552, which is 1880 times it's original
value
Who could believe that the small article he
carries in his pocket to denote tho time of day,

One day | saw, sitting on rock, miserable

soldiers were approaching, to bind him and
take him before a judge. | asked the reason
They replied, "We cannot endure his cursing
and his blasphemy' By his dialect, the man
appeared to be Piedmontese The expression
or rather the no-expression, in his eye and his
voice betrayed too clearly what was the mat
ter "This,n said, lis case for the hospital
and not for the Judge. God has visited him
heavily, and tomorrow in like manner may
visit you" ! found, upon inquiry, that this
being, whom every mob hooted and pelted, had
been gentleman in Genoa. When the Gov
ernments of Italy were sending all strangers to
their respective countries he had been de-
nounced as Neapolitan, stripped of his proper
ty, and sent to Naples. AT Naples, his accent
betrayed him to be Picdmontcse, and every
Piedmontese was a man to suspect of liberal
opinions He was therefore placed, as possibly
became only too harmless, for his mind gave
way under his trouble

while the required favor had not been returned

Little or no attempt is made in the prisons to
classify offenders, There is an offence called
blasphemy, which is convenient pouch into
which many curious items of offence are thrust,
such as breaking the Kings image, refusing to
serve in the militia, and entering on portions of
common ground which had been allotted in
the general disturbance, but never had been
cultivated. In the same prison. then, side by
side, sharing one fate, are the blasphemer and
murderer; that is to say, the man who has de-
stroyed an image Of the King Of Naples, and
the man who has destroyed Gods image, in
the body Of his brother.
The best reflection upon facts like these may
be conveyed in scrap of authentic, although
possibly somewhat revolutionary, Neapolitan
conversation.
"Sempronius," says one gentleman, has an
excellent character, but wonder how he con-
trives in these times to keep himself so clear
of difficulty" "Yes," answered his friend "hc
is safe person, for he knows well how to
paint mask "All!" said the first that is

tionary takers with the observation that if
they talked sense society in Naples must be
exceedingly corrupt" dyes" answered onc.

Our COnntrY.

In 1892, the cornerstone of the present Cap
itol at Washington was laid. AT that time,
General Washington, in whose honor the new
seat of Government was named officiated. Fif
ty-eight years afterward, namely on the 4th
day Of July, 1851 the cornerstone of an extern
sion of the buildings was laid and the Secreta-
ry of State made an address, in the course Of
which he presented sketch of the compare
tive condition of our country at the two periods.
Then we had fifteen States, now we have
thirty-one.
Then our whole population was three mil
lions, now it is twenty-three.
Then Boston had $4,000 people, now it has
$4,000.
Philadelphia had az, 900, now it has 409, 600.
New York had $4,000, now it has $4,000.
Then our imports were sol 900 900, now
they are Sl7S,000,000.
Then our exports were S26, 100000, they are
now S151, 100000.
The area of our territory was then SOC, 900
square miles, it is now 100000.
Then we had no railroads, now VIC have
$500 miles of railroads.
Then we had 200 post Offices, now VIC have
2l,00O
Our revenue from postage then was $1,000
now it is S5,000000
These arc only few facts to show the rapid
growth of the country and what VIC and our
children have to do to secure the continuance
of its prosperity is to love, fear, and obey the
God of our fathers: to avoid intcmpcrance,
pride, contention, and greedincss of gain, and
cherish in all our hearts true patriotism, and
a just sense of our obligation to those thGt shall
come after us.
