A Young Man--who wishes to ft himself for
the active business pursuits Of life and for posi-
ton Of homo in society do no better thinp than
to take thorough course of instruction in first
class Commercial Collegs. Such inst tu ion we
are glad to learn, has been recently established at
Scranton where the young men in thir vicinity are
offered advantages in many respects, superior 10
thoe of any similar Institution in the country. Let
| no young man who aspirss to sucL position and
qualif :stion say now, that they are Lot within his
reach Any one poss esscd of health and a will TO
do g., can enough of his earnings, at almost
any employment, every six months to secure him
the advantages of thorough business education
| The farmer and the mechanlc neeG such educa
ton just as much as the merchant and the shop
keeper. The idea that they do motifs oil Of the sx-
ploded old togy notions of tbs past.
EDcouraging.--A sho time since a friend (?)
called US, and expressed gr at satisfaction at
course at the same time wished that we might
be successful. As to the radical disunionists hs
| hoped we would still continue to cry aloud and
spare not. We of course felt very much gratihed
| at this endorsement of our cause, and msdestly
hinted to admirng friend that he did not b 1t
| ought to subscribe for the Democrat.
,"W-a-a H." said he, II would take your paper,
| but Mr.. w, neigh or OF mine takes it, and
get it and read it every week just the same, so
| / think it won't hardly pay for me to subscribe"
| We were, and still aware of the fact that hi,
ueighbor takes paper, and al Of anot her fact
that his kind neghbor has not from the beginning
! Qs6l) now upwards of FIVE years, paid single
iarthiue for it. This our enthusiastic, admiring
friend see every week, if he reads the date on
| the address label on it. Comment on this state Of
facts is unnecessary. We do think, however, that
it ron't pay for to supply several families with
| q paper ut SO cheap q rate to them. We hope Our
head subscribers will not hereafter betso gener'
Gus in endiag not their oun, but paper to the ii
neighbors.
This kind OF encourag. ment is very cheap to the
donor, and really don't 60 great way in paying
| printers, purchasing paper, ink, DC.
A very different kind of encourA cement was con
tanned in the following letter recently received from
q friend INDEED.
