Be Your Own Right Hand Man.

People who have been boistered up and
levered all their lives are seldom good
for anything in crisis. When misfor.
tune comes, they look around for some
thingt to cling to or lean upon. If the
prop is not there, down they GO,
Once down, they are as helpless as
capsized turtles or unhorsed men in ar
NOR, and cannot find their feet again
without assistance.
Such silken fellows no more resemble
self-made men, who have fought their way
to position, making difficulties their step
ping stones, and deriving determination
from defeat, than vines resemble oaks, or
spluttering rushlings the stars of heaven.
Efforts persisted int achievements train
man to self reliance, and when he has
proved to the world that be can trust him
self, the world will truss him.
We say, therefore, that it is unwse to
deprive young men of the advantages
which result from their energetic action,
by "boasling" them over obstacles which
they ought to surmount alone.

DREAMs,--There is new guide to the
Interpretation of dreams. An English
paper thus puts it:
To dream of a milestone round your
neck is a sign of what you may expect if
you get an extravagans wife.
To see apples in dream betokens
wedding, because where you find apples
you may reasonably expect to find pears.
To dream that you are lame is token
that you will get into hobble.
When young lady dreams of a coffin,
it betokens that she should Instantly dis
continue lacing her stays tightly, and al
ways 60 warmly and thickly shod in wet
weather.
To dream that your nose is red at the
tip is an inlmaton that you had better
have off brandy and water.

SARAToGA-WHAT THE SPRINGs HAVE
DONE FOR IT-These springs have built
up large and tlourishing city of some
ten thousand permanent inhabitants,
and attract floating population averag
ing from ten to fifteen thousand people
during the summer. They have been
the means of building and supporting
different railroad lines and steamboat
companies ON the North River, Lake
Champlain and Lake George; and such
is the faith of capitalists in the con!
tinued and increasing popularity and
attractiveness of these springs as a place
of summer resort that new line of first
class steamers is being established to
run between New York and the town of
Athens on the west bank of the Hudson
river, thirty miles below Albany, for
the convenience and accommodation Of
the multitude who swarm to Saratoga
at the hight of the summer season. At
Athens this line will connect with new
railroad about fOrty-tiye miles in length
run direct to Saratoga without change
of cars or other detention. The steam.
ers on this line will be the magnificent
St. John, Capt Peck, and an entirely
new one, of equal proportions and splen-
dor, not yet finished, to be called the
Dean Richmond, which, it is understood
will be commanded by the experienced
and popular Capt. s. J. Roe, at present
in command of the Hendrick Hudson.
This new route, with the usual boat
routes, via Albany and Troy, and the
Hudson River and Harlem Railroads
running their cars direct from New York
to Saratoga, will afford means Of com
municaton with the Springs unrivaed
in extent and ease and comfort in travel
ing by that OF any central point in the
country all watering places included.
In addition to these routes to Saratoga,
we may mention that of a new railroad
leading through the Adirondac district
to the st. Lawrence river at Ogdens-
burgh, giving an opportunity to West
ern and Canadian travellers to reach
Saratoga by an easy and direct route.
And still further, when the Hoosic tun-
mel is completed there will be direct
route by railroad from Boston to Sara
toga, via Greenfield, North Adams, &c,

A WOMAN KILLS HER BRoTHER-IN
LAVA soldiers wife from the south
ern part of Macon County, Illinois, went
to Decatur few days ago to obtain
from the express Office package con-
tanning four hundred dollars, which had
been sent her by her husband. On re-
turning home the woman retired to bed,
placing the package under her pillow,
when sometime during the night a man
entered her chamber by breaking open
a door and demanded the money. There
being fire in the fireplace at the time,
sufficient to light the room, the woman
threw the package on the floor, and, as
the ruffian stopped to pick it up, she
dealt him blow with poker that
broke his neck. The neighbors were

trustworthy authority that the value of

Christian Commission during the four
years of the war has exceeded four mil

lions. The receipts Of the Sanitary
Commission have exceeded those of the
Christian Commission. We hope that
when the work of these nnhin n"sani"'
Cfons is tully completed an authentic
statement of their receipts and the re
suits which they have accomplished will
be published. 1t will form a bright
chapter in the history of the war.

WASHINGTON AND LINCoLN.-Nlr. James
Hamersly of Pittsford, who enlisted in
this town as q member of the 18th Yer
mont, and has served in that regiment
until discharged for partial loss of eye
sight, is canvassing this town for sub
scribers to two excellent steel engrav-
ings of Washington and Lincoln. The
engravings are the work Of Sartain and
are published by Holland Of Springfield,
Mass. The engraving Of Lincoln is a
new one, and is much superior as Il
likeness to the first one engraved by
Sartain. 1t is in all respects, we think
the best engraved likeness we have seen
of the lamented President. The cngrav-
ing of Washington is also fine one, and
the two should be purchased together.

THURsDAY.-In obedience to the proc

that Thursday of this week be observed

this village were closed on that day,
and appropriate religious services were

most of the churches. We have seldom

A FIT CHANGE.-The notorious John
Mitchell, who poured out his pro-slavery
rbaldry through the columns of the
Richmond Enquirer till the coNcern
went up with the rebellion, has now
transferred his services to the New York
Daily News, the ultra Democratic organ.
The change was natural, so Mitchell was
under no necessity of leaving behind
any of his Richmond principles. But it
seems little curious that man who is
cut off from the ventilation of his rebel
malice at Richmond, can go right to
New York, the metropolis of the loyal
country, and resume operations.
