MECHANICS AND LABoRERs WANTED
IN KANSAS. We have received informa-
ton from several reliable gentlemen
just arrived from Kansas, that a large
number of mechanics and laborers are
wIntcd in that territory at the present
time In several towns they have not
q sufficient number Of mechanics to -
half the work which is required. and
for which they would receive from 81 so
to 81 per day. One gentleman tells us
that there is not a single shoemaker,
tailor, blacksmith or tinman in the town
OF Osawattamje, nor in Paoli in Lykins
County. In fact there is d .iciency in
in all the mechanical branches through
out the territory. Two or three builders
monopolize all the work in a town, AMI
they arc SO busily engaged in erecting
dwellings on their own account that
they refuse to do, and are unable to at
tend to outside work. Laborcrs are
wanted all over the territory at better
prices than can be obtained in any other
part Of the country. We are assured
that there Is no exagycration in this
statement. and if we entertained the
slightest doubt Of its correctness. We
would not publish it for the purpose of
deceiving those to whom such informa-
ton may be imPorsant.-St. L7,Hs Dcm-

however, they are busily engaged in trying
to show that the triumph is abou, half aud

FARMERS, NOTE rHIs-HoU TO tell a.
bout the weather.-1n cloudy morning, III
is matter of importance to the farmer to
know whether it will be sunshiny or show
ery in the afternoon. If the ants hav e
cleaned their holes nicely, and piled the
dirt up high, it seldom fails to bring a
clear day to the farmer. Spider-webs will
be very numerous about the tops of the
grass and grain, some cloudy morning ;and
fifty years observation has shown the wri-
ter of this that those little weather guess
ers seldom fail in their predictions of a fair
day.

Power OF THE SuN.-A distinguished
chemist in recent lecture, while showing
that all species of moving power have
their origin in the rays of the sun, stated
that while the iron tubular railroad bridge
over the Menai straits in England, tour hun
dred feet long, bent but half an inch under
the heaviest pressure of train, it will
bend an inch and half from its usual hor-
izontal line when the sun shines opon it
for some hours. He stated that the Bunker
Hill monument is higher in the evening
than il the morning of a sunny day; the
little sunbeams enter the pores of the
stones like so many wedges lifting 1t up.

MODEL CoURTsH1P.-Robert Hall, the

cause he was captivated by the manner in
which she put the Goals on, in replenishing
the fire. Abhorring the usual long and
tedious process Of wooiny-that ls,burnlng
for months with alterations of love and
jealousy, if not, Roger DeCoverly-like, sigh
ing a lifetime for some unrelenting fair one
-he brought things instantantly to eri-
els.
"Betty, do yon love the Lord Jesus
Christi"
81 hope do"
"Then, Betty, you must love me"-and
falling on his knees, he begged he to mar
ry him. And married they were, and liv-
ed most happily. What an enormous
consumption of "the stuff life is made of
especially of the precious "wee small hours
ayant the twal," might be avoided by the
general imitation of this example, We
leave statisticians and political economists
to calculate.
