wa. Mr.. Hutchinson is young man OF

Prices.-Real and Nominal,

We are too apt to be misled by ollinal
Or fictitious values. 1t is by viewing them
in the light OF their relative value alone
that we are able to judge OF the chealness
or costlness OF things. The farmer would
hardly think himself the gamer by The
adoption of Il system OF trade that would
reduce the cost of the manufactured ar
ticle used by him twenty-five per centum,
if he knew the same system was respon-
sihle for a decrease of fifty p"r ccntuin i'll
the value of farm products. 1nis is pre-
ciSeiy The effect of patrOniZing foreign to
the neglect of home manufactures, 1t
marters not whether whether wheat is
quoted at one dollar per bushel and calico
twelve and half cents per yard, or wheat
at two dollars and calico twenty-fvec
If the articles are produced by our own
laborers, they will maintain their own
relative values, which will be governed by
the laws OF supply and demand. But
when we go abroad and patronize foreign
manufacturers, because the starvation price
paid for labor there enables them to put
their goods in market at prices which would
ruin an American manufacturer, we de-
range the whole system of commerce by
discouraying enterprise at home and de-
priving our laborers of profitable employ
ment. There is no one class entirely in
dependent of all others. An injury i'll
iiicted upon one interest must of necessity
affect all interests. No country cau ever
become strong, financially, that docs not
foster all the varied pursuits. This is the
only road to Independence. If it pursue
any other policy, developing one interest
and smothering another. it will be contin-
ually liable to disaster from financial re-
vulsions. Our experience in this regard
ought 10 be a sufficient teacher, but its les
sons have thus far been lisregarded. The
greatest danger to our finances at the pres
eni time--and one which does more than
all things else 10 excite the gold market
is the fear Of excessive expectations o.
specie in payment for excessive importa-
tons of foreign goods.

Each boy set to work, and in an iEcredi-
BILE short space of time nine huge rocks
were balanced upon the edge of the preci-
pice. The creek at this point was directly
overhung by the mass of rock on which
our heroes stood. If the British band de-
scended the creek they would certainly
pass this spot; and if they passed it, then
death was their certain fate. In about an
hour the boys detected the measured beat
OF mufiied oars.
Closer came the doomed loyalists, and
the hearts of the boy patriots beat wildly
i'm their bosoms. Peering cautiously over
the cliffs, James Wilson saw the tory boat
slowly but surely approaching. Anoilicer
stood at the bows guiding the oarsmen by
his orders and the appauletts on his shoul-
ders told that he was the identical field,
Major Rradstone.
When the boat was about twelve feet
from the rock, the boy leader fell securely
behind his stone dcfcuse and shouted:
"Who goes there?' ..
In a moment the oarsmen ceased rowing
and gazed with astonishment above them.
u
caused it to drift slowly beneath the rock
and just as il was fairly below came forth
the doomed words:
"Cut loose i'm the name of liberty
Each boy pushed his rock at that in 1tant
and the stones fell. A loud shrek from
the dark waters told how well the plan had
succeeded, and rs the exultant boys again
looked over the rock, nothing was seen
bat few pieces of floating wood,
The boat had been broken to pieces, and
its occupants had found a watery grave
beneath the White clay. a cry of victory
burst from the joyous lips Of the youthful
patriots, and was echoed along the shore.
When the boys went to the place where
they had left their prisoner, they found that
i'm his efforts to free himself, George Liv-
in=ston had been caught by the fatal cord
and choked to death. There was no time
for repining the traitor and his son had
met their deserved doom, and there was
no room to mourn their loss,
Old Livingston's house was searched,
anil to the surprise of every one, not only
guns, but three brass field pieces, several
barrels of powder, and an abundance of
balls, dc., were found concealed in the to-
RVS cellar. The military stores found
there were given over TO the American
troops and found IL joyful welcome at their
headquarters. Had not the British party
been defeated the town OF Newark and the
whole northern part of the State of Della
ware would have been overrIn by preda-
tory bands of British soldiers James
Wilson and Frank Howard, the leaders of
the band hat saved Newark, both joined
the army of Greene and served with dis
t.nction in southern campaign. Frank fell
in the memorable battle OF Eutaw Springs,
bewailed by all who knew him. James
Wilson lost a leg at the siege OF Yorktown,
and retired to his native village, but NOR
-tiiication eirsued and he died from It's ef-
lects,
The village of Newark still stands and
has become town of some celebrety. The
place of the defeat of the British by the boy
patriots is still pointed out, and it is Al sd
cred spot to the inhabitants of Newark.

DRESS YoRA PHOTOGRAPH "A lady anC
gentleman, having made up her or his
mind 10 be photographed, naturally con.
siders, In the first place, how to be dressed
TO show off to the best advantage. This Ia
by no means such an unimportant matter
as some might imagine. Let me offer q
few words of advice touching dress.
Orange color, for certain optical reasons, ID
geographically black. Blue is white
other shades or tones Of color are proper
tionably darker or lighter, as they contain
more or less OF these colors. The progres
sive scales of Photographic eolors com
mence with the lightest. The order standi
thus: white, light blue, violet, pink, mauve
dark blue, lemon, blue green, leather
bound, drap, cerise, magenta, yellow green
dark brown, purple, red amber, maroon,
orange, dead black. Complexion has to
be much considered In connection with
dress. Blonds can wear much lighter
colors than brunettes; the latter always
present better pictures in dark dresses;
but neither look well In positive white
Violet contrasts OF color should be especi-
ally guarded against. In photography
brunettes possess great advantage over
their fairer sisters. The lovely golden
tresses lose all their transparent brilliancy,
aad are represented black; whilst the "bon.
ME blue e'e," the theme of rapture TO poet,
is misery to the photographer: for 1t Is put
out. The simplest and n ost effective way
OF removing the yellow color hom the hair
is to powder 1t nearly white; 1t is thus
brought to about the same Photographic
tint as In nature. The same rule, Of course,
applies to complexion. A frockle quite
visible, at short distance, is, on account
OF Its yellow color, rendered most painfully
distinct when photographed. The pufi
box must be called in TO the assistance oi
the art. Here let me intrude one word Of
general advice. Blue, as we have seen
Is the most readily affected by the light
and yellow the least; If, therefore, you keel
your complexion clear and free from tai
freckles while taking your rambles at th,
sea side, discard by all means the blue veil
and substitute dark green or yellow on,
In its stead. Blue tulle offers no more OBJ
struction to the action OF the actnic rays O
the sun than white. Half a yard of yellow
nett, though perhaps not very becoming
will be more eflicacious and considerably
cheaper than quart ofkalydor.
