MANNERS AND MoRALs.-Manners
easily and rapidly mature into morals.
As childhood advances to manhood,
the transition from bad manners to
bad morals is almost imperceptible.
Vulgar and obscene forms of speech
keep vulgar and obscene objects be-
fore the mind, engender impure i'm
ages in the imagination, and make un
lawful desires prurient. From the
prevalent state of the mind, actions
proceed, as water rises from a foun-
tain. Hence what was originally
only word or phrase, becomes a
thought, is meretriciously embellished
by the imagination, is inhamed into a
vicious decree, gains strength and
boldness by being always made well
come, until at last, under some urgent
temptation, it dares for once, to put
on the visible form of action; it is
then ventured upon again and again,
more frequently and less warily, until
repetition forgoes the chains of habit
and then language, imagination, de-
sire, and habit bind their victim in
the prison house of sin. In this way.
profane language wears away the
reverence for things sacred and holy;
and child who mas been allowed to
follow, and mock, and boot at an in
temperate man in the streets, is far
more likely to become Incorporate
himself than if he had been accustom-
ed to regard him with pity, as fallen
brother, and with sacred adherence.
as one self brutifed or demonized-
So, on the other hand, purity and
chasteness of language tend to pre-
serve purity and chasteness of thought
and taste; they repel licentious i'm
aginings; they delightin the unsullied
and the untainted, and all their ten
denotes and aptitudes are on the side
of virtue.-Horace Mann.

A New WAY TO GET A YOU'VE AND
HANDSOME WIFE.-A Garafraxa cor.
respondent of the Guelph Advertiser
gets off the following:
The young men in one OF the neigh
boring townships recently experienced
a considerable amount of chagrin
when the fact became known that an
old, grey-headed widower had been
married to one of the most beautiful
young women in this part of the coun-
try. As the affair appeared rather
singular, some persons have been in
duced to make inquiries, respecting
the manner in which the courtship
was conducted, and certainly if their
account be true, they have been we'll
repaid for their labor. They saw
that the first step taken by the aged
lover, was to get an old gypsy to 90
and tell the young lady's fortune. he
having dictated the words which were
as follows: any dear young lady
your star will soon be hid for a short
time by very dark cloud, but when
it reappears it will continue to shine
with uninterrupted splendor until the
end OF your days. Before one week
a wealthy old widower, wearing a
suit OF black and a fine castor hat
will pay you visit, and request your
hand in marriage. You will accent
his offer, become his wife, and be left
a widow in the possession of all his
before the close of this wear.
Your next husband will be a Young
man OF whom you think most at pres.
ent." Three days after, the old gen
tleman being dressed in the manner
described by the gypsy, presented him
self to the young lady, obtained her
consent, soon after had the marriage
ceremony performed, and thus became
tne possessor of the prettiest little
VINE this side Of Guelph, or any other

In the early part of the war an old
Tennessee gentleman who had one
son in the Federal and another in the
rebel army, was taken ill, and wishing
to divide his property equally between
his two sons, bequeathed to Henry
(the Federal soldier) all his slave
property, embracing about fifty ne
groes, and to Thomas the boy in gray
his entire landed estate. He died,
and thus the will stands. Both broth
ers lived to return from the war, and
slavery being among the things that
were, Thomas generously divided the
land with his brother.

The PennsvIvania Railroad.

WE publish this afternoon the twentieth
annual report of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, showing the operations of the main
lines and all its branches and canals during
the year 1866. The prosperity which has
attended the work during this period is
matter of congratulation, not only to the
stockholders and others who are directly
interested but to the people of the State at
large as well. The report establishes the gra-
tifying fact that its present strong position
from financial point ofview is owing in great
measure to the policy adopted by it of pro-
noting the development of the interior of the
State by assisting in the completion and ex-
tension of other railroads, whose capital was
not sufficiently large to enable them to make
the necessary investments. The assistance
afforded other roads, however, has not been
restricted to those within the State; but by the
hearty concurrence of the stockholders, it has
been freely rendered to the connecting lines to
the westward, and the results have more than
justified the risks thereby incurred, by con-
centrating at the western terminus of the road
an immense amount of traffic which would
otherwise have been diverted elsewhere. In
all these operations, the policy originally
adopted by the Company of limiting its in
debtedness to the capital stock has been in
variably pursued.
The endorsement of the bonds of other roads
has been restricted to 100000 of the first
mortgages of the Philadelphia and Erie road,
which the Company has leased for 999 years;
and to 100000 of the Western Pennsylvania,
and s., ,OOO, 900 of the Connecting Railroad COM
panies, in both of which the Pennsylvania
Company is the owner of nearly the whole of
the capital stock.
The gross earnings of the road during the
year have amounted to $16, 5S3, S83; the ordi-
nary expenses being $40, 1862, and the ex-
traordinary expenses $2, ,l74, SAT. The total
expenses were, therefore, $l2, 100, ,909, leaving
a clear balance of SO, 1872, ,974. The gross reve-
nue. for the year was 1875, 2S7 less than dur
ing the previous year. but of this amount
$717, S99 was caused by the decrease in the re-
ceipts from transportation of troops on Gov
ment account. During 1865, the number of
passengers carried was 1861, ,836, which de-
creased to 2, ,673, 56S for 1866. But the freight
transported uuIlnS 1ooo amounted 10 oI4oA, 10
tons, an increase on the previous year of $685.
9OS tons, or nearly 25 per cent.
The report dwells at some length upon the
experiments which have been made with steel
rails as a substitute for those of the ordinary
description. The management is satisfied
from these experiments that the Bessemer
steel rails are eight times durable as the best

but twice that of the latter, and can certainly
be reduced when further experience enables
us to produce them at home.
