GAMBL1Ne.-Let every young man avoid
all sorts of gambling as he would poison: a
poor man or boy should not allow himself ey-
er to toss up for half-penny, for this is Of
ten the beginning Of habit Of gambling
and this rninous crime creeps on by slow de-
grees. Whilst a man is minding his work,
he is playing the best game; he, is sure sure to
win. A gambler never makes any good use use
of his money, even if he should WIN. lie
only CANDLES the more; and he Is often re-
duced to beggary and despair. ne IS often
tempted to commit crimes for which his lie
is forfeited to his country, or perhaps he puts
an end himself to his miserable existence.
If a gambler loses, he Injuries himself; if ne
wins, he Injuries companion or a, friend And
could any honest man enjoy money gained IN
in such way? Advice to Laborers.

"The Democracy is now one determined
compact and national party. Sectional teuds
and sectional feelings are obliterated and Tor
gotten. 1t is the party Of the constitution
and the country-the only sheet anchor OF
hope to the conservative and patriotic Let
rs endeavor to preserve its unity and its IN
teoritv. not to divide it by discussions as to
the superior claims of the North or South to
the next Presidency. The Democratic party
: knows no North no South. 1t recognizes nc
sectional, no personal claims to the Presidency
When the nominating convention meets
) let It select its candidate with sole reference
to the good of the country. Let us excite AZ
!! little personal or sectional prejudices in the
meantime as possible, SO that we may con
: duct the canvass with the same zeal, devoted
: ness and harmony that we now practice
d If the friends of the many distinguished mel
!, ! who have been suggested as candidate
= choose to present their claims, let them DO
: without disparaging the merits or claims
d d others. Above all things, however, let
avoid raising the sectional question OF tn
o. claims of the North or the South to that o
t, flee. The office belongs to the country, n!
: to sections. Get the right man, and ne WI
v be sure to do equal justice to all sections

Of deep interest to Michigan Fruit Growers:
The following resolutions were adopted

ON the amount of capital invested and tic
amount of care and labor required.
RESOLVED, That the cities on the sea
board. interior cities and villages, in connec
tion with the extensive demand at the Yves
for GOOD fruits, render it morally certain tina
the fruit market cannot be overstocked q
the prejudice of largely remunerating pnce
for many years to come, If ever.
Resolved, That to Apples and Peaches !,;
as crops requiring the least care and ski
the general farmer may most easily direc
his labor: while the cultivation of cholc
varieties of fall and winter Pears, the Crap
and Strawberry, offer promise OF the mos
remuneration for well directed labor an
skill
Resolved, That we deem the cultivation
the Pear and ounce stock under favorabl
circumstances worthy of high commendatio
but that we confidently recommend Its g!er
eral cultivation among farmers, belieyin
those ON Pear stocks will be more safe, loi
oer lived. and ensuring, for number OF yea
as general crop, better return for the cal
ital invested.
Resolyed, That to ensure the proper
turn for labor in fruit culture, especial atte
tion will be required to the judicious seie
tion of good varieties, to care and skill
cultnre. and as of paramount importanc
a full knowledge Of the best means for ripe
