A young man commenced visiting a

pleased. One evening he called when it
was quite late which led the girl to inquire
where he had been.

the astonished girl.

THIS was the last time the mechanic Wis
tied the fastidious young woman. He is
now wealthy man, and has one Of the
best Of women for wife. The young wo
man who disliked the name of mechanic
is now the wife of miserable fool-a reg.
ular vagrant about the greg shops-the
poor miserable woman is obliged to take in
washing to support herself and children.
Ye who dislike the name of mechanic !;
beware how you treat young men who
work for living. Far better discard the
well-fed pauper with his airs, jewelry, and
brazenness, and take to your affections the
hard-handed mechanic. Thousands have
bitterly regretted their folly, who have
turned their backs to honest industry. A
few years Of bitter experience has taught
them severe lesson. In this country. no
man or woman, in our way of thinking,
should be respected who will not work bod
lily and mentally, and who curl their lips
contemptuously, if they are introduced to
man who is obliged to work for living.

REWARD OF FIDELlTY.-Never forsake a
friend. When enemies gather around !;
when sickness falls on the heart when
the world is dark and checrless-is the
time to try true friendship. They who
turn from the scene of distress betray their
hypocrisy, and prove that interest only
moves them. If yeu have friend who
loves you, who has studied your interest
and happiness, be sure to sustain him in
adversely. Let him feel that his former
kindness is appreciated, and that his love
was not thrown away. Real fidelity may
be rare, but it exists-in the heart. They
only deny its worth and power who never
loved friend, or labered to make friend
happy.

National Banks.

National Banks.
In pamphlet containing suggestions for
the guidance of the National Banks which
have just gone into operation, DR.. McCul.
loch administers wholesome advice, which
should and must command the respect Of
sagacious business men. He says:
"Bear constantly in mind, although the
loyal States appear specifically to be IN
prosperous condition, that such is not the
fact. That while the government is enga-
ged in the suppression Of a rebellion of I'm.
exampled ferceness and magnitude, and is
constantly draining the country of its labor
ing and producing population, and diyerting
its mechanical industry from works of per-
nanent value to the construction Of imple-
ments of warfare while cities are crowded,
and the country is to the same extent de-
pleted, and waste and extravaganza prevail
as they never before prevailed in the United
States, the nation, whatever may be the
external indication, is not prospecting. The
var in which we are involved is stern
necessity and must be prosecuted for the
preservation of the government, no matter
what may be its cost; but the country will
unauestionably be the poorer every day it
is continued. The seeming prosperity of
tho loyal States is owing mainly to the large
expenditures of the government and the
redundant currency which these expendi-
lures seem to render necessary. Keep
these facts constantly in mind, aRj manage
the affairs of your respective banks with a
perfect consciousness that the appar> Mt
prosperity of the country will be proved to
be unreal when the war is closed, if not be.
fore; and be prepared by careful manage
ment of the trust committed to you, to help
to save the nation from financial collapse,
instead of lending your influence to make
it more certain and more severe.
While the exigences of the nation have
required that the issues Of the government
should be legal tender, it must never be
forgotten that the business Of the counter
rests upon an unsOund basis, or. rather, is,
without proper basis so long as the gov
eminent and the banks are not meeting
their obligations in coin.'
