How TO DRIVE NAIL.-In driving cut
nail into hard wood, its entrance win be much
facilitated by dipping it into oil, or what will
answer nearly as well, wet it with water or
saliva. Experienced carpenters are in tho
habit Of putting nail into the mouth to wet
1t, before attempting to drive it into hard
wood. When nail is to remain permanently
salt water or saliva is preferable to oil, as the
former will rust the nail and cause it to take
frmer hold. In all cases it is better to in
sert nail so that its widest diameter shall
stand parallel with the grain of the wood
This is generally done in thin boards where
there is danger of splitting, but it should al
ways be done, even if mailing into solid
piece OF timber; for where rupture does not
take place by setting the wide part Of the nail
across the grain, yet slight opening is pro-
duced near the nsil, which admits air and
moisture and hastens decay around it.-Bos-
ton Post.

MILroS IN HIS own AND IN OUR AeE.-There
are mysteries in his history. The apparent is
not always a true Indication OF the real state
of things. The contradiction and inconsistent
cies to be found in the annals of men and ma
tons, have very appropriately been compared
TO the eddies and windings that are seen In
the current of a great stream rs it flows on to
its ocean home The same object, looked at
from new point of observation, has an alto
gether different appearance. 80 1t often is
with those whose genius and acts have made
them historical. In the light Of new facts,
their characters are changed in our eyes. We
then seek to correct our judgment, and praise
or censure as justice demands. In his own
time, Milton was considered q writer of sedi-
ton; iuours, his name stands pre-eminent as
one Of the noblest champions of Freedom and,
as Coleridge has finely said, "strode so far in
advance Of his age as to dwarf himself In the
distance now shines with full-orbed bright
ness as star &C the first magnitude among
the patriots q. d chiefs who mingled in the
fierce conflict Of Old England's hard fought
battles for liberty.

RUSSIAN LANGUAGE The Russian language

tiiul in the world; it is soft and agreeable in
sound, and has not the defect of being too eff
Terminate; il contains many words that express
the same ideas. If ever a Sclavonic Milton
or Shakespeare arise, he will find an mex haus-
table treasure In his native tongue wherewith
to express his thoughts; but at present there is
scarcely any national literature, owing TO the
desdening influence of the government The
principal Russian authors are Poushkin the

Dragging and Betting.

The Jackson (Miss.) Mercury, in its last
issue, says: We warn our American friends
against paying any attention te the clustering
and boasting of the Antiea. Dragging is part
Of their tactics; and the worse The chances the
louder they brag. To credit their assertions,
there are not ten thousand Americans in the
State but the election will show result which
will astound them.
We reiterate the same warning to our friends
in Louisiana In this State the game of brag,
buster and banter, is carried TO q much greater
extent by the Antics than we have ever known
before All Of this is done for efect-to con
firm the wavering in their own ranks-and to
make outsiders think they believe there is some
slight chance for triumph left
Let our friends pay no attention to the brag-
gings and bettings Of our opponents, but keeI
the oven tenor of their way until they reach the
goal of certain victory. which they sssnredly
will on the First Monday of November. Bet
ting, instead of being any argument, or imply.
ing any fact. is psrnieious and demoralizing
practice, and in express derogation of the
statutes Of the State.
Furthermore, when we see political leaders
most prcfuse in their offers TO wager sums o.
money, we take it for granted that they deem
their chances desperate, and rely upon ths
gamblers last trick for rstrieval of los
ground,
