The PAR VALUE OF BRAINS.-W ork-
ing as an ordinary haud In Philadelphia
ship-yard, until very recently, was man
named John l.. Knowlton. His peculiar
ity was that, while others of his class were
at ale houses, or indulging in jolliication,
ne was necessarily engaged in studying
upon mechanical combinations One of
his companions secured poodle dog, and
spent six months in teaching the quadru-
ped to execute jig upon his hind legs.
Knowlton spent the same period In dis
covering some method by which he could
saw out ship timber In 5eveled FORM
The first man taught his dog 10 dance
Knowlton, In the same time, discovered a
mechanical combination that enabled him
to do in two hours the work that would
occupy dozen men, by slow and laborious
process, an entire day. That saw is now
in use in all the shipyards of the country.
It cuts a beam to a curved shape as quick
ly as an ordinary saw-mill saw rips up a
straight plank.
Knowlron continued his experiments.
He took no part in parades or target
shootings, and in a short time afterwards
he secured patent for machine that
turns any material whatever, into a per-
fectly spherical form. He sold portion
of his patent for a sum that is equivalent
to a fortune. The machine is now in op-
Grafton in Philadelphia, cleaning off can
non balls for the government When the
ball comes in from the mould, the surface
is crusted, and the ordinary process OF
smoothing it was slow and wearlsome.-
This machine, almost in an instant, and
with mathematical accuracy, peelS tito
the surface of the metal, at the same time
smoothing out any deviations from the
perfect spheroidal form.
Within a few days the same plain, un
assuming man has invented boring ma
chine, that was tested in the presence of
number of scientific gentlemen, a few days
ago. 1t bored at the rate of twenty-five
inches an hour, through block of granite,
with a pressure of but three hundred
pounds upon the drill. A gentleman
present offered him ten thousand dollars
upon the spot for part interest in the
invention in Europe, and the offer was
accepted on the spot The moral of this
is, that people who keep on studying are
sure 20 achieve something. Mr.. knowl-
ton does os consider himself by any
means brilliant, but if once inspired with
an idea, he pursues it until he forces it
into tangible shape. If everybody would
follow copy, the world would be less filed
with idlers, and the streets with grum-
blers and malcontents.

THE New COMA few specimens ofthe
new three cent coin are in circulation
The size Of the piece is precisely that of a
dime. The diverse bears the head of the
goddess Of liberty, with the legend
''United States of America" and dated
1868 The reverse has the Roman nu-
merals "11l," surrounded By wreath
The edge of the coin is plain, unlike that
of the ten cent piece, which is mi!led.-
When new the piece has silvery lustre,
but furnishes rapidly. The law authoriz-
ing the issue of this coin, passed March
3, 1865, makes it legal tender for all
sums not exceeding sixty cents, and pro-
hibits any further issue Of three cent
fractional currency.

"Keep good company or none. Never
be idle If your hands cannot be useful
ly employed, attend to the cultivation Of
your mind. Always speak the truth
Make few promises. Live up to your en-
gagements. Keep your own secrets, if you
have any. When you speak to a person,
look him in the face. Good company and
good conversation are the very sinews of
virtue Good characters above all things
else. Your character cannot be essential
ly injured except by your own acts. If
any one speaks evil of you, let your life
be so that none will believe him. Drink
no kind Of intoxicating liquors. Ever
live (misfortunes excepted) within your
income. When you retire TO bed, think
over what you have been doing during the
day. Make no haste to be rich, if you
would prosper Small and steady gains
give com potency with tranquility of mind.
Never play at any game of chance. Avoid
temptation, through fear you may not
withstand it. Earn money before you
spend it. Never run in debt, unless you
see way to set out again. Never borrow,
if you can possibly avoid it. Do not
marry until you are able 10 support a

just before you are generous. Keep your
self innocent, if you would be happy
Save when you are young, to spend when
YOU are old. Read over the above max

Beef Cattle-The caraeter of the receipts has
not improved and the scarcity of good cattle con-
tinues. The lightness of the supply has rendered
il extremely difficult for shippers to secure their
shipments, and good prices are freely oFefed.
While we have few actual sales Of this grade to
base our quotations upon. there be litte
doubt that for strictly good becves, an adv ance
upon the prices Of last week would be paid.
Medium Cattle. and especially good Stock
Steers. are in fair request, and the prices about
the yesterday. The large quantity of
Stock Steers now being taken for New York. Penn
sylyania and Ohio have served To keep up a better
feeling in relation to this grade. and prices have
been well sustained.
Good Cows and fair Butchers Cattle are in mod
crate request; but owing TO the full supply, buy
ers have assumed more Independent tone and
demand slight concessions from holders.
The extreme low grades, Of the 'Scaiawag" va
riety, very dull. and when sold are only taken
ar the BUYERS own terms.
Sales 200 head al g 90 for scaliawsgs to
= 80 for good Illinois steers.
Hogs-Jhe setual receipts to-day have been
about Loco head. and the sales OF abou; g. 500
head NJ 81 - to IL -
The advices from New York are more favorable.
and the market has been more animated, New
\ orkers doing more than for some days previous
The active competition among dealers impaired a
sort OF srtfcial value to Hogs. aud were sold
at the extreme high figure of 81 -. The demand
for heavy butchers Hogs continued active. and
there was slight advance on yesterdays sales
We quote the market moderately supplied and
active, with an advance of loo &c n loo tis IL

Premiaxa On Geld.

The New York Commereial, of Tuesday. il OF
the opinion that the present high rsmiums on
Gold and foreign Exchange cannot long be main
tanned. According to the Commercial, importers
decline purchasing more than they are Obliged, 1t
these high rates, from an opinion that the quota
tons cannot long be maintained. They argue that
the exports Of Cotton will ssoon compensate for
the present discrepancy between the value of the
imports and exports, and that, consequently, the
settlement Of foreign balances by Specie win be of
short duration.
An exchange in commenting on the above, very
aptly remarks:
And it most be allowed that there is consider
able show Of reason in this petition. Tho supply
Of Cotton coming into the Southern ports at pres
emit largely exceeds the consumptiye ability of the
Northern mills. The receipts At New York, during
the expired portion Of the present month, have
been at the rate Of $50, 900 bales per annum-very
largely in excess Of the highest rate Of Northern
consumption during years Of peace; and yet, with
this large ratio of importation, the stock at New
Orleans is 5000 bales than at the same pc
Rod for an average of the four years before the
war. At New York the stock is 25000 bales lsrg-
or than was held at the same period OF 1859, at
all the Northern ports. II is clear, therefore, we
have reached point at which the exports Of Cot
ton must very largely increase.

Chicago Board of Trade.

We clip the following from the Chicago Tribune
OF the 18th, in relation the action OF the Board
of Trade in refusing TO invite Western Rcpresen-
tatiyc commercial men to participate in the oper-
ing Of their rooms:
The Board of Trade yesterday, during the morn
ing session. called, by a resolution 10 vote YES
or no upon the propriefy of inviting to their ies
tival next week, representative commercial men
from the smaller cities west and south of us The
resolution to invite them was voted down Some
of the leading members of the Board Of Trade
feeling indignant at thus ignoring class of men
who have done much IN build up Chicago. deter
mined TO call meeting 10 express their opinion
upon the issue; but finally persuaded fr, N
doing so by the assurance that the matter should
be again brought before the Board Of Trade ,hi.
morning, and under the new Fight which had been
thrown upon the subject wonld, without doubt.
reverse their action of yesterday. At the meeting
too day the action of yesterday WAS abiraed and
thus by the sober second thought of the Board of
Trade il bas decided that commercial renresen
tatives from st. Paul, Winona Lacrosse. Du
buque. Davenport, Rock Island, Muscatine, Bur
hngton heokuk. Quincy. Galesburg. Peoria and
other prominent Western towns shall be ignored
left out in the cold not reeogpized--at the great
festival in honor Of the opening of the FIRST Board
OF Trade rooms in the United Sts:es OF eoutse
tins action on the part of the Chicago Board of
Trade IS none of our business. strictly speaking
nut we can't heip volunteering the opinion that
they have made great mistake, fact they will
recognize before the matter ends. If there is any
class Of men which Chicago should seek to make
ITS friends, it is the have named: while
the friendship of ST. Louis, Cincinnati. Milwaukee
and other competing points, never can be secured
If we were TO feast its representatives daily for an
indefinite period. They always have and always
will oppose any measures, in Congress or CONNER
cial circles, inanguratcd for the advancement of
the interests of Chicago. The trade of the West
ern points we have named Is essential TO us and
every honorable means should be employed 10 Sc
cure and maintain it, and a call upon them TO
come to the anticipated festival is one of the
means which should be employed. These are our
views, briefly, on the subject
