The Life and Doath of . Miser.


Michael Baird, Tor Bear, as he is some.
times called, who lived near Little York,
Pennsylvania, was a miserable miser.-
His father owned valuable plantation Of
500 acres in the vicinity OF York, with
some farming and household articles
He kept tavern for number of years
married, and raised four children. He
accumulated an immense estate, which
he reserved SO tenaciously that be nev-
er afforded dollar for the education Of
his children. He never was known to
lay out one dollar in cash for any article
he might be in need Of; he would either
do without it, or find some person who
would barter with him for something he
could not conveniently sell for money
He farmed largely and kept large dis
tillery. which he supplied entirely with
his own grain. He kept team for con-
veyance Of his whiskey to Baltimore,
where, when he could not sell for mon
ey at price to suit him. he bartered for
necessar;es for his family and tavern.---
In this way he amassed an estate worth
four hundred thousand dollars.
A-....,. ..a- his at.k-ahnant- m. s.s..s>AV-
that he was never known to credit sim
gle dollar to any mar. Upon the best
mortgage and security he would not lend
a cent. He never vested one dollar in
public funds, neither would he keep the
notes of any bank longer than he could
get them changed. He deposited his
specie in a large iron chest, until it would
hold no more. He then provided 8
strong iron-hooped barrel, which he also
filed. After his death, his strong boxes
yielded two hundred and thirty thousand
dollars, in gold and silver.

Fun at Home.

Don't be afraid of little fun at home,
good people! Don't shut up your houses
lest the sun should fade your carpets !;
and your hearts, lest hearty laugh
should shake down some Of the musty
old cob-webs there! you want to ruin
your sons, let them think that all mirth
and social enjoyment must be left on the
threshold when they come home at night
When once home is regarded as only a
place to eat, drink, and sleep in. the
work is begun that ends in gambling
houses and reckless degradation. Young
people must have fun and relaxation
somewhere. If they do not find it at
their own hearthstones, it will be sought
in other, and perhaps, less profitable pla-
ces. Therefore, let the fire burn brightly
at night, and make the home-nest de-
lighttul with all those little arts that pa
rents so perfectly understand. Don't re-
press the buoyant spirits of your children;
half an hour of merriment round the
lamp and freight of home blots out the
remembrance OF many care and annoy
ance during the day, and the best safe
guard they can take with them into the
world is the unseen influence of bright
little domestic sanctum.

SUFFERING AT THE NoRTH.-The late
sectional excitement, and the consequent
withdrawal of Southern orders, are caus-
ing no little suffering at the North among
mechanics and operatives in the various
factories. A large number of hands, es-
pecially in the New England States have
already been discharged, and others will
soon be thrown out OF employment.
The Chelsea (Mass.) Herald reports
dull times there, "the best carpenters
being glad to get work at l,25 per day,
and good worllmen commanding only Is
cents. Painters, it is said, will not aver
"cn IN cents a dav during the winter
ship-carpenters are out of employ, and
masons have gone into the country"
The Journal OF Commerce adds, that
Northern mechanics and manufacturing
artizans are preparing in great numbers
to move to the South, there to follow
their respective callings.

Depressed state of Industry in
Pennsylyania,

A correspondent of the n. Y. Tribune,
writing from Philadelphi on the first inst,
gives the following graphic, but gloomy
picture of the condition of the industrial
interests of Pennsylvania
"The chances are that during the year
just closed, no single mining or manufac-
turing interests of Pennsylvania has ex-
perlenced wholesome or profitable ex-
pansion. Increase has undoubtedly been
witnessed i'll some directions. The coal
product is n million of tons in excess of
the preceding year, but that product has
not paid to miners the profit they should
have had, while probably one.half of this
excess is yet stacksoShp unsold. Min
ing must 60 on, evoiFif no profit result,
for the works, like the machinery of
cotton.mill, suffer worse depreciation by
idleness than by being kept under way.
Iron and machine making may have done
better pecuniarily, but they too have
been sluggish. The great shoe trade of
this city has been the subject of unprofit-
able fluctuations, and is now especially
dull. Leather is falling, manufacturers
refuse to make up stock, wages have been
reduced, and multitudes Of hands have
little or nothing to do. Spindlcs and
power-looms have afforded the best re-
turns. But taking the whole range of
the manufacturing interests contracted
in and around Philadelphia, with pro-
ductive capacity of Sl70,0O0 900 per am
mum, it is seen and felt that the past year
has not been brilliant one. A cloud
has hung over it which no energy could
dissipate. The labor of the city has lack
eel, and still lacks employment. Thousands
who beg the privilege to toll are turn
ed away unsatisfied. Advertise for
clerk, "A salesman, or a bookleeper, and
a thousand will offer. Capital stagnates
in the banks because the muses. have no
profitable demand for it. Two heavy rail
road companies have crumbled to pieces
within theyear and others. quite us heavy,
struggle on courageously, hoping for bet
ter times.
1t is manifest that the year, which
opened so buoyantly, has failed to realize
the revival we anticipated. There are no
indications of better future. So long
as this country annually imports $780,
100000 of foreign cloth and iron, this
cloud will continue to hang not only over
Philadelphia, but over the whole nation,
closing coal mines, making railroads in
solvent, ard compelling thousands OF
willing toilers to eat the bread OF poverty.
An Italian war has failed to stimulate
our industry Europe docs not need our
overlooking crops. We have had no 9th
er foreign dependence than these, and
both have failed us. Assuredly the rem
edy is not across the ocean, but at our
own door. The coming year is impotent
to furnish it,

HEAVY DAMAGE AGAINST RAILROAD
CoMPASY.-A verdict for $4,000 was rem
dered in n Philadelphia court last week,
in the case of O'Donnell, Us. the Reading
Railroad Company. Plaintiff took seat
in the car and rendered the conductor a
SO bill in payment Of his fare, which was
pronounced counterfeit. He borrowed
the amount of his fare from friend and
paid it, but was notwithstanding elected
from the cars, and compelled to walk
homo some distance in snow-storm,
keeping him from his business.

Extravaganza of the Age.

A sh'ewd writer, who Is in the habit Of
telling home truths which go direct to
the heart of the popular follies of the day,
has the following in relation to the perni-
cious system of domestic education, so
fatally prevalent at the present time;
In the town Of Somewhere, lives Mr..
Manygirls. He is a toilsome merchant,
his wife hard-working housekeeper.-
Once they were poor now they are ruin
ousiy rich. They have seven daughters,
whom they train up in utter idleness.--
They spend much money, but not in
works Of humanity, not even in elegant
accomplishments, in painting, dancing,
music, and the like, and so paying in spir-
itual beauty what they lack in material
means. They never read nor sing; they
are know-nothings, and only in vain show,
as useless as a ghost, and as ignorant as
the blocks on which their bonnets are
made. Now, as these seven ladies' as
the newspapers calls the poor things, so ig-
norant and helpless, are not only idle,
can earn nothing, but consume much
What a load OF fincry is on their should
ers, and heads and nccks. Mr.. Many
girls hires many men and women to wait
on his daughters idlenes-, and these SER
wants are withdrawn from produtive
work in ncurishing these seven grown up
babies.
"On the other side of the way, the
Hon. MrsNIanysons has seven sons, who
are the exact match for the merchants
rich, idle, some of them dis
solute; debauchery coming before their
beard all useless, earning nothing, spend
ing much, wasting more The only labor
is to kill time; and in summer they en-
igrate from pond to pond, from lake to
lake, having fishing line with a worm
at one end fool at the other. These are
ness is counted pleasure. Six of these
sons will marry, and five perhaps OF
Manygirls' and what families they will,
found to live on the toll of their grand
fathers bones; until q. commercial crisis,
and the wear and the tear of time has dis
sipated their fortunes and they are forced
to toll.
Besides, there is an enormous waste of
food, fuel, clothing, of everything. We
are the least economical civilized people
on earth. Ofcourse the poor are waste
full everywhere, they do not know how to
economize, and they have not the means.
They must live from hand to mouth, and
half what is put into the hand perishes
before it reaches the mouth. So likewise
are the rich wasteful who have inherited
money, almost never such as have earned
it. The great mass of the people are not
but wasteful. 1t is the habit
of the whole country.

How TO PREVENT SORE SHOULDERS IN
WORK HoRsEs.-The Boston Journal says;
"The plan we have tried, and never found
it to fail, is to get piece of leather and
cut it INTO such shape as to lie snugly
between the shoulders of the horse and
the collars. This fends off all the friction,
as the collar slips and moves on the leath-
er, and not on the shoulders of the horse.
Chatting is caused by friction; hence this
remedy is quite n plausible one, and is
much better than tying slips of leather
or pads of sheepskin under the collar"

NEGROES IN THE CHEROKEE NATIoN.-The
underground railroad has been set to
work in the Cherokee nation. A large
stampede of ofnegroes was attempted from
the nation to Mexico; but the chiefs
having been informed, by faithful negro,
of the movement, collected their warriors,
under the pretence of going on a war
trail against the Camanches, and arrested
the fugitives.
