ECONOMY IN A FAMnY-There is nothing,
says good writer, which goes so far to-
wards placing young people beyond the
reach OF poverty, as economy III the manage
ment of their domestic affairs. 1t matters
not whether man furnishes little or much
tor his family, if there is a continual leakage
In his kitchen or in the parlor, it runs away
ne knows not how and that demon cries
More like the horse leech's daughter, un-
I'll he that provided has no more to give
1t is the husbands duty to bring into the
house, and it is the duty Of the wife to see
that none goes wrongiully out of it. A
man gets wife to look after his affairs. and
to assist HIM in his journey through life
to educate and prepare his children for
proper station In life, and not to dissipate
his property. The husbands interest should
be his wite'S care, and her greatest ambition
should carry her no farther than his welfare
or happiness, together with that of her chill
dren. This should be her sole aim, and the
theatre of her exploits in the bosom of her
family, where she may do as much towards
making fortune as he can in the counting
room or workshop. 1t is not the money
earned that makes a man wealthy-it is
what he saves from his earnings Sei-gruti-
lication in dress, or indulgence of appetite,
or more company than his purse can well
entertain, are equally pernicous The first
adds vanity TO extravaganza, the second
fastens "a doctors bill to il long butchers
account, and the latter brings intemperance,
the worst of all evils, in its ruin.-[N. Y.

THE CALoRIc SHIP.--The Ericsson has
been removed from the Government dry dock
at Brooklyn, and now lies at Hogg q Della
matters dock, undergoing repairs Her tim
bers are found to be perfectly sound. The
degree of injury to her machinery cannot as
yet be ascertained. 1t is believed however
that the expense of repair will be compare
lively slight, and that the ship will be ready
for her trial trip in the course of few
weeks. The reiitting of the cabins and state
rooms will prove heavy bill of expense
The carpets, cushions and plate were nearly
all destroyed by the immersion in the river,
and the principal delay will be occasioned
by the necessity of renewing the elegant ap-
pointments of the vessel.

Now AND THEN.--President Pierce waits
for no official call by due course of mail from
Boston, but catching the rumor of resistance
to the iniquitous Fugitive Law, as it is borne
upon the lightnings flash, he sends greeting
BY the same messenger to the Marshal " that
the ldau mast be crecuted" How prompt
this Northern President to obey the will of
his Southern masters!
Look back a few short months to the time
when the best citizens of Erie fled for their
lives before an infuriated mob; when band
of lawless men stopped the mails of the
United States; and sei2ing the property of
inofensive men and women, scattered it to
the four winds of Heaven when even life
was acrificed-not the life of volunteer
in the dirty work of slave catching-bu the
blood of an innocent child frozen in its
veins: when the great thoroughfare of travel
was broken up when, not for day, but for
weeks, the process of the United States
Court was disobeyed and despised; when
the mighty voice of all outraged public call
ed for official interference then this &c same "
President Pierce refused to send even tele-
graph dispatch, but let mob law do its per-
feet work Shame on such dastardly truck
ling, such cowardice, such meanness in high
places. (Cleve. Herald.

AMERIcANs IN THE TURKISH ARMY An
enthusiastic volunteer who left New York to
join the Turkish army writes home fromkars,
in Asia Minor (his letter being published
in the New York Courier,) that the Turkish
army is doomed to destruction, and that
everything he sees, proves that they deserve
TO be destroyed. Allowing something for
disappointment, and his representation of
the miserable character is probably correct
enough. Though not lacking in courage,
the Turks are sadly wanting in discipline,
and the officers deficient in military science.
The Notifications Of the town, he says, are
of tha most paltry description. The troops,
number 5000, are badly clad, badly oficered,
and not paid at all About l,500 men are
sick in hospitals with scarlet fever. and from
Is to 20 die daily. The writer is one OF
three or four Americans who volunteered
last winter in the Turkish war.

A LARGE FARM.-Mr. Solomon Sturges,
of Putnam, Ohio, and his brothers, E. P.
and E. Sturges, of Mansfield, have pur-
chased one hundred thousand acres of land
in Northern Illinois, for farm, and have
already commenced its cultivation on an
extensive scale. BY the aid Of the most i'm
proved implements of husbandry and the
employment of steam, they expect TO put in
about hundred acres day. 1tis said there is
an elevation on which man may stand and
overlook circumference of thirty miles of
country, as beautiful and even as the eye
ever rested upon. This is intended to be a
model farm, and the most extensive in
America. The proprietors are possessed of
unlimited means and are abundantly able to
make it Just what their taste or ambition
may Indicate If they intend to employ
men enough to farm this tract we'll and make
lit produce as much as it is capable of do
ing, we have no doubt but that they will fur
nish for themselves very rich place but
even then we doubt the moral right Of using
so much land. We are by no means of the
vote-yourself-a-farm party but we cannot
see how one man can find it in his con
science to hold 10000 acres of land unless
he makes it produce for the benefit of his
fellow beings all they would make it produce
if they had it. He need not give it away
but sell 1t and cucumber less Of Gods earth.

a DIAMoND.-A genuine diamond. OF eX-

not pounds-was found near Richmond, Va,
on Thursday last, by d man who was digging

Pure diamonds, when found in the rough
state. are sold to the lapidary at 2 T. sterling

weight is worth 2 E--the worth increasing

Thus diamond weighing 3 carats is valued

to pass these by as of but little worth Bu;
