A New York journal very justly COM
pares the publishers of a trust newspa-
per to farmer who would sell his wheat
on credit and not more than a single
bushel to any one person; the payment
of years subscription is of the same
Importance to a-publisher, as the pay
ment of bushel of wheat would be to
the farmer. The harder the times, the
payment of these small yearly subscrip-
tions.
The Faribault Herald in the course
of an able article on the subject of
newspapers and their influence upon
the towns in which they are published
says:
''The announcement that newspa
per is published in a town at once gives
a reputation of importance. A news
paper adds to the value of town prop
erty in town where it is published
This is a fact not generally appreciated
but fact, nevertheless, and hence ev-
cry property holder in place is per-
sonally interested in sustaininga paper;
no money that he expends during the
year returns him such per cent as that
which he pays for his paper"
REV. ANsoN SMITH, State commis-
sioner of Common Schools in Ohio, in
his last report to the Legislature, makes
the following remarks upon subject
which are timely and sensible, and de-
serving of wide practical application:
every teacher should read at least
one good newspaper, otherwise he will
live in ignorance of daily occurring facts
in regard to which his profession re-
quire that he should be informed.-I
Newspapers are fast becoming the teach
ers of the world; and the man or woman
who is not a habtual reader of this de-
partment of literature cannot be thor
oughiy qualified for the teachers profes-
sion"

A Cute Yankee,

Acorrespondent of one of the Boston
papers tells the following good story:
early one morning the scholars of
one of our district schools were agreea-
bly, surprised to find written upon the
outside door, No Scule, and the most
of them made preparations to enjoy the
holiday-not dreaming but that it was
a genuine order. 1t appeared however,
that a roguish youth, lover of mischief
more than his books, had written in
large letters the joyful news. No Scule'
was the notice posted up; the idea We
understood, but the spelling was bad
The afternoon brought all together; and,
in the stern visage of the master, enough
was seen to convince US that all was not
right-he had been outwitted, and now
came the tug of war.
"He soon ordered the boys to appear
before his presence, and, one by one
criticised our spelling, as far as the word
school was concerned. They stood the
test. until the hero, with his comic phiz,
made his appearance, who, with conf
dcnce, distinctly said-"'S-c-u-l-e!
''The master took him by the collar,
and with joyful expressions at the sue
cess of the rule, laid on the birch right
mcrrily."

Early Rising.

There is something in the morning
air that, while it defies the penetration
of our shallow philosophy, adds bright
ness to the blood, freshness to life, and
vigor to the whole frame. IF we would
be we'll, therefore-if We would have
our heart dancing gladly like the May
breeze, and our blood flowing merrily
like the May brook-we must be up
with the sun. How delightful, while
the day is yet young, for the poet and
lover of nature to linger on the borders
of the copse gushing with the melody
of its feathered choir, to watch the open
ing Aewers thag-Iift their -weak-eyes
to heaven, silently though uncosciously
speaking the praise of their creator
''Sweet is the breath OF morn. its ri sing sweet
With charm of earliest BIRDS
The country is SO calmly beautiful in
morning that it seems to belong to the
world of dreams, which we have just
quitted-to be some paradise, which
suffering and care cannot enter, than to
form portion of busy and anxious
world, in which the very flowers must
share in decay and death. a.t

1oarers in a Printing Office.

A Poor Investment.

There is story told of prominent
citizen of New York, which we give be-
low. We can call to mind good many
similar investments which have scarcely
paid
Old Captain W., of New York, owned
a fast horse, and was possessed of an e.
qually fast boy. One day fast boy stole
mare out of the pasture, and put out in
pretty fast style to Il horse race some miles
distant. While at the race, he won a
cool V by putting fastmare over the
ground little faster than his competi-
tors. Fast boy returned to the paternal
roof with fast horse about 4 o'clock in
! the afternoon. and feeling rather sheep
ish, took it into his head that he would
appeas the old mans wrath, by piling up
some wood that lay around loose in the
wood shed. Now it came to pass that
the old Captain had been at the same
work, and had made one pile as high as
he could reach, SO that he could not see
any body on the other side, where the
fast boy was at work. The old gent had
a very peculiar way of talking to him.
self in this wise:
That's that boy of mine. He's an
awful boy; I've done everything for him
lnat ne could ask, ana now the scamp
has stole-yes, stole the brown mare,
and gone off to the horse race! I've sent
him to school, educated him clothed him,
and once when he was taken with fits,
1 sent clear to the head of the lake after
an Indian doctor and paid him $50 for
curing the young rogue, and I'm incli-
ned to think it was the poorest invest
ment [ ever made"
Young w turned over a new leaf af-
ter this experience of paternal cogitation
on his life aud customs.
