ness saves one from many insults, from much
blame, from not little apparent connivance
in dishonorable conversation
There are two doors inside my ears-a right
hand door leading to the heart, and left-hand
door, with broad and steep passage out into
the open ain. This last door receives all ugli-
ness, profanity, vulgarity. misunderstanding,
which suddenly find themselves outside of me-

my name at the top of his voice no persons
that talk evil of those who are absent nor
those who give me unasked advice about my
own affairs nor those who talk largely about
things of taiiich they are ignorant.
If there are sounds of kindness, of mirth, of
love, open fly my ears But temper, or harsh

Eawkes' Steam PIow.

The committee on Fawkes' Plow at the Illi-
hois Fair, have made along report, from which
we extract what follows:
1.-The experiments with Fawkes' steam plow
engine have demonstrated to our satisfaction
That it is practicable, that, in few years, a
large portion of the labor now performed by
animal power on the farm will be superseded
By steam, especially in prairie countries, and on
we'll improved farms, where but few stones or
other Instructions exist. The engine here on
exhibition is intended only for large operations,
being capable of breaking from twenty-five to
forty acres per day but we see no reason why
the size may rot he reduced very considerably,
(say to one fourth,) and still successfully COM
pete with animal power. A skilled engineer,
sent to witness this trial, by the largest machin-
ist in Ohio, has reported fatorably to his en-
ployer, and contract has already been made
by him with Mr.. Fawkes to build small en-
gine for his farm of three hundred acres. We
estimate the cost of plowing by it from very
liberal data = Used per diem: One ton of coal
S. one cord of wood, So labor of three
men, engineer, fireman and assistant, 81 oil
&C., 81 ordinary wear and tear, 80 interest
] 0 per cent, on cost, Sl,12. Total, $l6l2.-
With the most liberal allowance for hauling
water and coal one mile for stoppage and tur
ming, the machine should plow twenty-five acre
per day. At present contract prices of ST.
per acre for prairie breaking this would cos
$62 80 while by the above estimate it is seel
that Fawkes plows for 641ac per acre.-Ohi
Farmer.

Hard Times in NIinnesotas

A gentleman, just from Minnesota, states
that hard times still continue in that State, and
that Eastern people have but an imperfect
idea of the Universal depression in business
that exists there Some relief from financial
difficulties was anticipated in the abundant
harvests, but the prices obtained for produce
are so meager that farmers can realize but lit
tie from their sales--barely sufficient to pay
farming expenses. Wheat brings but so cents
a bushel, oats l5 cents, potatoes % cents, and
corn is without sale. They have plenty of
food to carry them through the winter, but no
money. Many are leaving the State tempora-
rily, with the intention of returning when
times improve--the effect of which is to rem
der trade still more inert. Property-holders
are burdened with heavy taxes, and money
lenders frequently find more land mortgages as
collaterals upon their hands than they are able
to pay taxes upon, and at the same time are
paying Eastern capitalists from to 10 per
cent for money loaned on the same security
Many of the small towns, having city charters,
have to pay extra for their dignity, and in adj
dition to the State, county, school and poll
taxes, are assessed two or three times n year
for municipal expenses. In addition, there is
fair prospect of heavy railroad tax. How
to pay all these is the first great question; tht
second, when are the hard times to end IN

GfvE THE BOYS Il CHANCE.

Dne Of the shrest methods of attaching boy
to the farm, is to let him have som ething upon
it for has otrn. Give him d small plot of
ground to cultivate, allowing him the proceeds
for his own use. Let him have his steers to
break, Or his sheep to care for. The owner
ship of even fruit tree, planted: and pruned,
and brought to bearing by his own hands, will
inspire him with an interest that Ho mere re-
ward or wages can give. In addition to the
cultivation of a taste for farm life, which such
a course will cultivate, the practical knowledge
gained by the boy will be Of the highest value
Being interested, he will be more obServant
aud will thoroughly learn whatever is necessary
fqr his success. Another and equally import
ant advantage viii be accustomin9 him early
to feel responsibility. Many young men,
though well acquainted with all the manual
operations Of the farm, utterly fail when en-
trusted with the management ofan estate from
want of experience in planting for themselves.
1t is much better than responsibility be grad
ually assumed than that a young man should
be first thrown upon himself attaining his

Flogsins in the British Arrnv.

The London Times gives the following re-
port of horrible case of fogging in the Brit
lsh army for desertion e. ..s
The first man, named Green, bore his pun
lshment as stated by an eye witness, \ like
true soldier" but the second named DaEis, a
young recrnit, protested bis innoeence. of the
crime OF desertion, beloved and screamed for
mercy and supplicated Col. Talbot and the
medical officers and others who were present
70 have compassion on him, or he should die.
HIS back was covered with mass Of large red
inflated boils, which bled proiiisely IL every
stroke, and REDEEMED the ground under his feet,
upon which the eat ordered to be with
held for few minutes, when, finding that his
punishment was not at an end, he gave vent to-
exclamations for mercy, and partly succeeded
in delivering himself by force From the straps
which bound him to the hilyards. The punish5
ment was again ordered to be continued, ,sEheu
at every succeeding stroke his cries and excla7
nations were most lamentable, ilisomucK' that
one officer, upwards of twenty noh7ro1nmis-
stoned officers and men long in the service

FckEY OF PRIDE.

Take some quiet, sober moment of life, and
add together the two ideas of pride and man );
behold him, creature of a span, stalking tIfodgh
infinite space in all the grandeur of littleness.
Perchea on a speck of the Universe, every
wind of Heaven strikes into his blood the cold
ness Of death his soul floats from his body like
melody from the string; day and right, like
dust OF: tile wheel, he is rolled along the hcav-
ems, TIN ough labrynth of worlds and all the
creations Of God are flaming above and beneath.
Is this creature to make for himselfa crown
of glory, to deity his own flesh, to mock his
fellow. sprung from that dust to which both
will return? Docs the proud man not err .
Does he not suffer? Does he not die? When
he reasons, is he not often stopped by difficul-
ties? When he acts, is he never tempted by
pleasure? When he lives, is he free from
pain? When he dies, can he escape from the
common grave? Pride is not the heritage OF
then humility should dwell with frailty, and
atone for ignorance, error and imperfection-
Sidney Smith.
