There is nothing more difficult to attain,
or necessary to possess, than perfect good
breeding, which is equally inconsistent with
stiff formality, impairment forwardness,
and awkward bashfulness. A little ceTe-
mony is sometimes necessary; a certain de-
gree of firmness is absolutely SO, and an
awkward modesty is extremely unbecorn-
ing. In mixed companies, whoever is adj
mitted to take part in them, IS, for the
time at least, supposed to be upon foot
ing Of equality with the rest, and conse-
quently every one claims, and very justly,
every mark Of ciyiEty aud good breeding.
Ease is allowed, but carelescness and neg
ligence are strictly forbidden. There is
nothing so little forgiven as seeming in
attention to the person who is speaking to
you. We have seen many persons, who,
while you are speaking to them, instead of
looking at and attending, to you, fix their
eyes upon the ceiling, or some other part
of the room, look out at the window, life
book or newspaper, and read it. Moth
ing discovers little, futile, friyulous mind,
more than this, and nothing is so offensive
ly iIl-bred. Be assured that the profound
est learning, without good breeding, is I'M
welcome and tresome pedantry. A man
who is not well-bred, is unfit for good so
ciety, and is unwelcome in it. Make,
then, good breeding the great object of
your thoughts and actions. Observe care
fully the behavior md manner of those
who are distinguished by their good breed

YOU may at least equal them. Observe
how it alorns merit, and how often it COW

Sugar Culture Sorghum Or Inplse

Why is the sor9 hum preferred to the II :
nhee in sugar-lnaking? The question Of
TN asked, may be answered in the down
east fashion-by asking another Why i
ilnphae more widely cultivated, if it has
advantages eyer the sorghum
The fact that the sorghum is generally
preferred indicates some good reasons for
The preference. Gre strong reason is thai
the sorghum ripens earlier-being ready foi
sugar-making fifteen or twenty days be-
fore the imphee. This consideration alone
all else being equal, would turn the scale
jn favor Of the former; for the time thus
gained in ripening is important in refer
,ence to frosts and other matters. lmphee
is also subject now to inseets-sr,all blue
lice-from which the sorghum is free,a'
yet. We ."as yet,"---for analogy prepares
Us to find Oh the sorgum era long, some IN
stances, similar if not the same as that OF
the iruphee. 1t is remarkable, howeye
that, even when growing close together
the sorgpm Is free from the difficulty tina
thus affects its competitor.
Sorghum rpens about the same time a
Geld corn in Central Ohio, and, with prop
er precaution, it may be ripeped in Mich
gan ana Canada, as we'll as in Ohio. Blu
for this purpose, plants should, in thos'
cooler regions, be started in hot bel, ant
transplanted wkep three Or four inches
high. This process, SO seemingly irksom'
involves arcely more labor than eradica
ting grass and weeds from among the
young plants when grown the common
way. The starting in hot-beds insure
large advantage in ripening the cane, a

Calico Printing.

Works at Lowell, Mass:
The white cloth-looking like the light

looms, is run rapidly through a machine
which shears with sharp blades, and san
ges with flames of burning gas, and is
turned out with smooth surface to receive
the print or figures for the calico. Six
hundred pieces Of this cloth are sewed to-
gether at the ends, making string oyel
fifty thousand feet in length, and this Ii
run slowly, rapidly, gradually, topsy tur-
Wy and by jerks, through, over, under, be-
tween bars, bolts, turbs, watts, cogs, anc
| cylinders; mixed up with lime, soda, as
phaltum, gum arabic, mordant, fly extract
OK perfume and hydroseatic acid, until j
comes out at t'otber end as white as th'
driven snow. Ii now receives the impress
sion or print of its colors from numbe
/ of different copper rollers some prints re
curing as many as segen ditfere roller
Of color to perfect the pattern. And nov
comes, to US, the most difficult part Of th'

/ cloth has suddenly become calico, having
an endless variety of figures, styles am
colors, but great care is taken that il doe
not come in contact with aqater, inasmucl

and off.
