From the Philadelphia Ledger.
Make a Character for Yourself.

1t is related Of Girard, that when a
young tratlesman, having bought and
paid for bag Of cofiee, proceeded to
wheel it home himself, the shrewd old
merchant Immediately offered to trust
his new customer to as many more
bags as the latter might desire. The
trait Of character revealed by the young
man in being his own porter, had given
the millionaire confidence in him at
once. His reputation was made with
Girard. lie became favored dealer
with the enterprising merchant, throve
rapidly, and in the end amassed for
tune.
No mere capital will do so much for
young men as character. Nor will al
ways even capital and connexion com.
bined. In our own experience, we
have known many beginners who have
utterly failed, though backed by ample
means, and assisted by the influence Of
large circle Of friends. In some ca
ses, indeed, considerable experience as

The Science Of Blacksmithing.

The Scientific American says--Saw-
ing heated iron and steel. is not known
or thought Of by blacksmiths I; and when
several forks or branches are to be form
ed from one stock, even if the branches
are required to remain eventually near
ly in contact. and parallel to each 9th
er, the usual method is to split the end
of the iron with an awkward chisel ;
thereby deforming the edge Of each
branch on which account, the branch
es must be bent asunder for the purpose
of hammering, squaring and shaping
the edge Of each; after which they are
brought together as well as may be, u.
sually retaining roughness in form,
If not deficiency Of size near the juno
ture of the branches. Instead Of this
tedious process, the iron when heated
may be put into vice, and the ends
may be readily slit with suitable saw,
which would save much labor in ham,
mering and filing. A saw for this pur-
pose should be made thicker at the
edge than at the back, and with uni
form teeth one-twelfth of an inch "a
part. The saw, when used, must be
often dipped in water. to prevent ITS
becoming too much heated. There is
also method Of saying or cutting har-
dened steel, which is not as general y
known as it should be. A circular
piece of common thin iron plate, OF sheet
iron, being adjusted to a lathe, or by
other means put into violent rotary
motion. will readily cut of a file, a cut
ting tool, or tempered steel spring,
without drawing or reducing the tenn
per. There is much symmetry in the
wonderful effect of this buz, and its
cutting property is attributed to elec-
tricity. 1t answers very convenient
purpose, however, when the shape and
form of articles are required to be
altered without affecting their temper
1t furnishes convenient method for
cutting teeth to large saws; but OBJ.

cut surface being left so hard that they

have been added 10 these advantages,
vet without success. We have known
such persons, after failure in their
FIRST pursuit. to Try a second. and even
a third. yet with no better result, al
though still assisted by capital. by
friends and even by their own activity.
The secret was that they had missed,
somehow. making character for them
selves.
On the other hand. IL is a common
occurrence TO see young men begin
without cent. vet rapidly rise to for
tune. They achieve this triumph by
establishing. at the outset. reputation
for being competent businessmen. Few
are 80 fortunate as to do this by sin
gle characteristic ACT. like the purchas-
er who won Girard's good will by
wheeling home the bag. for generally
neitheryeteran merchants are as shrewd
as the famous millionaire. nor young
dealers as energetic as his customer.
But consistent life Of sagacity, eco
nomy and industry, invariably estab-
fishes the right kind Of a reputation in
the end. Confidence grows up. in in
fiuential quarters, towards the young
beginner. Old merchants shake their
heads approvingly, and say, che is Of
the right stuff and will get along"
Credit comes, as il were, unsought.
Connexion follows. The reputation Of
the new aspirant widens and deepens |;
his transactions begin to be quoted as
authority; trade flows in on him from
every quarter; and, in few years, he
retires with competence, or remains
to become millionaire. All this is the
result Of establishing, at the outset. a
character OF the right sort.
We may say to every young man
about 10 start in life, make character
for yourself as soon as possible. Let
il also be distinctive one. tits better
to have name for excelling all others
in some one thing than to enjoy simply
a notoriety for merely general merit.
Are you a mechanic outstrip your fel-
lows in skill. Are you young law

book keeper your employers have. Are
you in store f--make yourself ac>
quainted with the various buyers. In
short, become known for an excellence
peculiar to yourself acquire q speci>
ality, rs il is called and success is
certain, because you will have, as il
were, a monopoly. and can dictate your
own terms.
Money may be lost, without fault ol
our own, by some one or another oI
the accidents Of life. Connexions may
be broken up. by death or failure, OF
change of interests. But character re,
mains through all. II belongs to the
individual, and is above the chances Of
fate. Thousands. who have lost all
else have recovered themselves by hav.
ing character to start anew with but
no man, without business character
has ever risen from the ruin caused by
the loss Of capital. or the destruction
of connexion.

INDIAN CoRN.-A French farmer has
succeeded in giving to Maize or Indi.
an Corn any color he chooses, by the
following plant Having received from
China specimen of maize of a pearl
white color, the grains Of which were
very small but very beautiful, he was
desirous to obtain the same grain but
Of other colors. For this purpose, he
planted by the side of some Of them
some American maize Of red color,
and the result was crop of grain OF a
pink tint, with some Of a blueish, and
others Of green color. He made ST.
milar experiment with the maize ol
Tuscarora, the grain ofwhich isas white
as Carolina rice, and he thus obtained
a crop, the ears of which were about
IA inches in length, aud the grains Of a
blue color. Another time he planted
some maize of the color of amber among
some Of the black maize Of Syria. The
ears attained the length of % inches
and the grain was of different colors
The yellow maize on being planted
near snme Of the brown maize of Cen
iral America, produced some of dark
brown color, which ripens eight days
sooner than the other sorts. This far
mer now possesses one hundred ant
filty.three different varieties Of maize
and his object in continuing his expe.
riments is not only to change the colol
at will, but also to obtain yarietie.
which will ripen earlier, as well as
larger aud longer ears, aud thus increase
the produce.
