The Printing once.


The printing Office has indeed prov
ed q better college to many boy, has
graduated more useful and conspicu-
Gus members Of society, has brought
more intellect out and turned it into
practical, useful channels, awakened
more minds, generated more active and
elevated thought than many of the lit
erary colleges of the country. A boy
who commences in such school as the
printing Office, will have his talents
and ideas brought out and if he is a
careful observer. experience in his pro-
fession win contribute more toward an
education than can be obtained in al
most any other manner.

Trial of Mowers.

Trial of Mowers.
A correspondent informs US that
trial of moving machines came off last
Wednesday at the farm of Asa Trout,
near Sand Brook. The machines on
trial were the American Harvester,
Ketchun's Improved Moving, Kin
yon's Machine, Pennock's Iron Har-
vester, Dunnam & Stats two wheeled
machine, and the Buckley Mower In
some parts of the field the horses were
up to their knees in the water, thus
testing the machines severely. Our
correspondent, who is a practical far
mer, gives it as his opinion that Pen
nock's Iron Harvester accredited itself
most nobly, and thinks it was the most
complete machine on the ground.

But every hour the mighty power
OF Printers Ink is seen;
II moves the world as easily
As does some mighuer hing,
And men proclaim in despol's ears
That Printers Ink is King.
The man of gold, of wealth untold,
The Printers lax may scorn,
Nor lift his brow, or deign 10 bow
To one 50 lowly born;
But Printers Ink has built its throne
Where minds their tributes bring,
And Gods most gifted inleliects
Shout "Printer's Ink is King"
King of the world of thought refined,
No abject slave il claims
Where superstition victims pined,
II burst their servlle chains.
In every cline, in coming years,
Will men proud anthems sing,
And round the world the echoes float,

The Loafer.

The most miserable, hopeless scrap Of
humanity, is an idle man-a man whose
chief aim iu life is to "loaf to waste, in
listless lounging and mental and physical
inaction, the best years of his life. There
are such beings in every town-miserable
people, whose sole occupation is to avoid
employment of any kind-whosc lives can
scarcely be called lives-who die one after
another, and leave behind them-what !?
A vacancy to be mourned! No, for they
are in themselves vacancies, not men, or
women. To these atoms, society owes
nothing. The history of the worlds pro-
gress ignores their names, their existence,
and, being dead, the grave contains no
more inert, worthless earth, than it did
before. They become chronic nuisances (;
they have 10 local babitation or name, in
go far as regards their worth or value, and
from day to day, in the haunts of busy
life, they pass current as uncurrent funds
at so much Of discount that they can't
even buy themselves. The only apparent
exertion they exhibit is that which eua-
bles them to be eternally in somebody's
way, to the great hindrance of that some
body's progress and business. They new
CT do any special harm, and never accom-.
plish any good. They die only when they
get too lazy aud indolent to use their re-
spiratOry organs. They never get the
consumption, because they haven't energy
enough to cough. They give employment
to nobody, for they have none for them
selves. From such as these, may God
preserve all wellmeanipg mortals.
PRINCE JOHN VAN BUREN.-A good
story was told us [iIartford Press) the
other day, about john. He had taken
some technical, legal advantage, BY which
his opponents client in an action was non.
suited. The man was furious, and dcclar-
ed his purpose to give John piece of his
mind when be saw him-he would Wither
him. Happening to see John enc day at
Downing's, standing at the bar, getting
outside of dozen New York bays, he bold
ly confronted the Prince, aud being small
man, looked up at him fercely, and burst
out-"Mr. Van Buren, is there any client
so low aud mean, or any case SO nasty,
that you won't undertake to defend him
in i.?" 81 don't know" said John, stop
ping to put away another oyster, then
bending down and conidentially drawing
out bis reply in the little mans ear, "what
have you been doing?"
