GREAT RWALaY BETWEEN STEAM
AND SAiL.-The famous clipper ship
Dreadnought sailed this forenoon at
o'clock, and the steamer Ericsson, at l .
o'clock, for Liverpool. The clipper
ship Typhoon will leave tomorrow, land
the steamer Persia on "Wednesday,
both for the same port.
Much rivalry exists between these
vessels to reach their port of destina-
ton first. and much interest is maniies
ted by the shipping world as to the re-
suit. The Persia will probably beat;
though the Dreadnought, on her last
"trip ont, made almost rs good time as
did the Persia.--N.I. Express, l4M

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.

To FAsrEv LEATHER TO METAr.-Soat the
leather i'm a hot solution Of nutgalls, and apply
it TO the metal upon which it is to be fastened,
having first given the metal a coat Of GLUE
When dry the leather will adhere so tight that
It sooner tears than separates from the metal.
ToBAcco SMOKE As a REmEDY.-The Lousl-
ana Baptist recommends tobacco smoke as
highly valuable remedial agent in the treat-
ment Of flesh wounds &, loCkjaw, etC.i the smoke
10 be blown upon the affected part through a
pipe stem. Many persons are aware Of the
healing virtues Of tobacco when applied moist
TO a wound.
A SIMPLE RENEDy.--A writer I'm the Balli-
moro Sun, who has been afflicted severely in
his family by that appalling disease bronchitis,
has found relief from the following remedy. -
Take honey i'm the comb, squeeze it out and
dilute with little water, and wet the lips and
mouth occasionally with IL. It had never been
known TO fail, even iu cases where children had
throats so swollen as TO be unable TO swallow.
1t is certainly a simple remedy, and may be
very eilicaciOus one.
WAuM BATmNG.-The warm bath is a grand
remedy, and will cure ;he most virulent Of dis
eases. A person who may be in fear Of having
received infection orany kind, as for instance,
having visited fever patient, should speedily
plunge iuto a warm bath, suffer perspimtion
TO ensuc, and then rub dry, dress securely to
guard against taking cold aud finish of with
cup Of strong tea 10y the fire. II the system
has imbibcd any infectious matter, IL will GER
tutnIy be removed by this process ir it be re-
sorted 10 before the infection has time 10 spread
over the system. And even ir some time has
elapsed, the drenchug perspiralion that may
be induced in u hot bath will he pretty sure TO

Tho Happy Farmer.


'aa ar"When tho commercial horizon Is
shrouded in gloom; when suspension and
ruin arc impending over those who but
recently awakened feelings Of envy and
discomfort In the breast Of the farmer
by their show Of wealth-their gildod
o1uipoges, and troops Of servants-their
,ea6iogments Of all the luxuries of life
thon can the honest tiller of mother
n Earth raise his head with pride which
unscathod integrity RiOno can give, and
thank his stars that he is not a "mer-
ssr chant prince" Times like these are
to-4 well calculated to demonstrate the van
-tra. ity Of "gotting rich in hurry" While
. t6e gilded fortunes in anticipation by
spectators have vanished as the mist
before tho morning sun, the steady but
slow gains Of the farmer are secure
There is now plenty in all the rural dis
trcts, while depression and want are
staring the commercial and manuiactur.
ing world i'm the face.

EARLY DAYS.

Oh, onviabe early days!
Whom dancing thoughless Pleasures maze,
To care, to guilt unknown!
How 10 exchanged for ripper limess
To feel the lolirs or the crimes
Of others, o. my own!
Ye tiny elves, that guilDless sport
Like linnets Ia tGo bush,
Ye little know the ills ye court
When Manhood is your wish!
The losses, the crosses,
That active men engaged
The fears all, the tears all,
OF dim, declining age!
Robert Burns.
