.Ngliiicant Exchange

Some gentleman, nthe advertising
column Of one Of the datics, says the
Philadelphia Sunday Mercury, offers
to exchange a chest, OF. cafpepters
tools for a gold watch. This shows
one ofthe tendencies of the present
age. Too many men of our day are
willing to part with their working
implements, with the view OF obtain
ing the means: OF making shew or
parade! 1t wouldbe Il much better
idea for some Of our Youngsters to
trade off their. gold watches apl other
fal-lals, for jackplanes and han laws,
Repugnance to work: and a childish
delight for gewgaws, keep a largfpro,
portion Of American mechanics anil
families, in state OF comparative DIES
titution to the end OF. their flYtes. =
Hold on, boys, to your tool.cllests and
discard your gold levers. NqrilE, we
read the advertisement just, alluded
to with many painful emotions. 1t
was distressingly suggestive ot pawn
brokers' shops and the aims house:

The Opelousas patriot. [volume] (Opelousas, Parish of St. Landry, La.) 1855-1863, 1856-04-12

WONDERFUL PRESENCE OF MIND.--We find
the following doubtless authentic anecdote in
an exchange, where it bears the heading of A
Great Feat or a Great Lies"
sit is recorded as a fact that an engineer en-
one OF The Eastern railroads, OH approaching a
sixteen feet draw with his engine, tender. a
baggage car, and two passenger cars, at the
rate of forty miles an hour, and discovering, 10
his horror, when within a quarter of a mile
that the draw was open, instantly realized that
to break up in time to stop was absolutely i'm
possible, and " opened wide" rushing over the
gap at the fearful rate of eighty or ninety miles
IN hour, with his train sale and sound.F
A great lie indeed! The incredulitv of some
green country editors who are not as vet I'M
with the times is really mortifying-esreciai-
" 10 the more enlightened members of the
profession. Why there is at present in opera
ton, near Boston, Il Jumping toeomciire which
only touches the ground once in a mile. 1t is
perfectly round, the machinery in the centre,
and is coated externally with India rubber. So
soon as the patent has been secured. its pro
prietor supposes that thousands of them viii
be seen "bobbin round +" the world, SO TINT to
the Man in the Moon the earth will look like n
big cheese covered with "~skippers." I, does
not look well to doubt anything nowadays.

Mn, SouIE's Mission TO SpAIS.-The New
York Herald understands that MIR. Soule has
completed his book, aud that it will probably
be issued from the press in season for the great
Democratic Convention in Cincinnati. 1t will
create a prodigious sensation, or else we are
much mistaken. Mr.. Soule has not put him
self to the trouble of writing a book without
an intention of making " Rome howl" Presi-
dent Pierce will be rakcd merc,lcssly, while
Secretary Marcy may look for such II scathing
and soaring as he never experienced before.
Even his tough hide, supposed to be the tough
est in the world, will writhe under the sharp
lash of our iratc and gifted ex-Minister.

OLD DOCUMENTS ARE DANGEROUS THIsGs.-
We see it stated that the Hon. James Bucha-
nan delivered a Fourth of July Grafton at
Lancaster, Pa, in 1915, in the course of which
he said, Above all, we ought to drive from
our shores foreign influence, and cherish Amer.
lean feeling. Foreign influence has been in
every age the curse of Republics--its jaun-
diced eye sees every thing in false coiors--The
thick atmosphere of prejudice by which it is
ever surrounded, excluding from its sight the
light Of reason" M & las |,.F5p1 s~
Well, what of it? asks the N. o. Bee.
Didn't Mr.. Buchanan once declare that if he
had a drop of Democratic blood in his veins, he
would let it out, and is he not a patent pure
steel Democratic Consistency in politicians is
altogether q novelty.
