GIVE THE PRINTERS FAIR PLAY.-We
have a piece OF advice which we wish to
impress firmly and indelibly upon the pub
lie mind, and that is to give the printers
fair pay. DO not forget that it costs
something to puff as well as to advertise,
and never sponge upon printer in any
way whatever. 1t is printers ink that
makes nino tenths of our fortunes; it takes
money to buy ink, type and paper. and yet
after all this, few are the tharks the prln-
ter gets. Give the printer faif play, and
give up all expectations of gratuitous puff
iing, &c. Daniel Webster was ''mighty
near right" whom he remarked of the
press, "Small is the sum required to pat
ronizc newspaper, amply rewarded is its
patron. ! care not how humble and un-
pretending the paper which he takes, it is
next 10 impossible to fill it without putting
in it something that is worth the sub
scription price"

Practical Ciirissk1nity-An Knci-
dent il, Church.

Just after the services in the Christian
Church, corner Of Paca and Lombard
streets, had commenced last Sunday, a
party % women and children, in squalor
and distress, were crowded into the seats
near the doors, and note sent up to the
pastor, Mr. Burnett, by the church col
porterrs, asking for some words Of comfort
to be addressed to them 1T the close of
the services, Mr.. Burnett said that these
objects Of commisseration were found at
the Baltimore and Ohio dcp5t, without
money, that they had friends at Indian
apolis, and that words Of comfort were tame
they needed greenbacks, AID now WAS
the time. In a few minutes about sixty
dollars were forthcoming The pastor and
others visited Mr.. Cole, General Ticket
Agent, aad finding that eighedollars would
still be required to purchase reduced half
fare tickets TO Indianapolis, the generous
colporteurs, Messrs. j. Geddes, j. Ill.
Boyd and l.. Brown, solicited the amouat,
and fifteen dollars over, frSm those they
met.
That night, the party Of several widows
and their children, fifteen in all, started on
the way to their Western destination, In
voking blessings on the heads Of their
benefactors, including some Catholic and
Protestant families, who sent them provis-
ions for their present need and their jour

WANT OF DECISIoN-A great deal OF
labor is lost to the world for the want ola
little courage Every day sends to their.
graves a number Of obscure men, who
have only remained in obscurity because
their timidity has prevented them from
making first effort, and who, if they had
only been induced to begin. would in all
probability have gone great lengths in the
career Of fame. The fact is, that in doing
anything in the world worth doing, we
must not stand shivering on the bank.

man could consult his friends upon an in

years, and live to see its snccess for six or

for oyer-squeamishness at present, that the

RAISING CALVES By HANp.-A Cali
fornia correspondent says: Il have taken
calves from one to two days old to as many
weeks, and taught them first to drink milk
warm from the cow. When they are used
to this. add handful of corn meal, Cor
better still, oil meal and stir we'll while
they are drinking. All milk may be
withheld at perhaps three weeks old, by
giving more tea and meal-barley or wheat
meal will do perhaps better than corn
Tea is the best substitute for milk, and
should be made from good sweet hay, and
not stepped too long. If the calves arc
troubled with scouers, stop the meal day
or two, and give little new milk. L
they are constipated, give little moro
oil meal or rye meal. u American Agri
