EooNoMY.-A slight knowledge of
human nature will show that when a
man gets on little in the world, he is
DESTROYS of getting on little further
Such is the growth of provident habits
that it has been said that if a journey
man lays by the first dollar, he is on the
high road to fortune. 1t has been re-
marked by one whe has paid great atten-
ton to the state of the laboring poor, that
he never knew an instance Of man who
had saved money having afterwards to
depend on public bounty. We may add
that those individuals who saved money
are, in the long run the most reliable
workman; if they do not perform the
work better, they behave better and are
more respectable. l would sooner, says
a man of experience on this subject,
have in my trade a hundred men who
save money than two hundred men who
would spend every shilling they can
earn. In proportion as individuals save
little money their morals are much bet
ter, they husband that little, and there is
superior tone given to their morals
and behave better for knowing that they
have a little stake in society. It's scarce
ly necessary to remark that habits of
thoughtfulness and frugality are at all
times of immense Importance.

Here is New Orleans story, told by
one who saw the parties at the table:
Last summer, while residing ia New Or
leans, youth, who stood almost five feet
eleven and three quarters in his stock
ings, who hailed from somewhere up the
Wabash, was invited by friend to dine
at the same house where [ was boarding.
Ihi, was the Holsters first visit away
from. home, aud he told his friend, who
wa4 ia the produce business, and had
purchased his cargo of corn, as they took
their seats at the table, that he expected
he would show him all the sights in town,
a. he wanted to let all ;he folks at hum
know about it. The servant brought a
plate Of sup, and observing gentleman
nearly opposit, put considerable caisup
IN his dish, our lloo,ier pointed to a bot
tie Of peppersauce aud asked his neigh
Dor what it was.
"Spiced vinegar" was the reply. Wal,
s'posc yer blige a Teller by handin't
along ."Ciriainlv," was the answer
The Hooosier took the the bottle and
commenced dosing into his soup; but as
the sauce did not flow very freely, he
took out the cork, at the same time OBJ
serving to his friend: "Kinder close
f,k4 yer stoppin' with, to put such a
plaguy little hole in that to prevent
feller's taken much of the stuff I'spose
il comes high, don't it?'
During the time he poured nearly a
wine.glass full into his sonp, and taking
his spoon he dipped it full together with
several peppers, and put it into his mouth.
The next instant he spurted the contents
of his spoon across the table into a
French gentleman's bosom, and bawled
out
"Waterl water! Snakes and wild cats,
give me some water Tn all fire p
"By gar, sair,' exclaimed the French
man IN Il rage, jumping up from the table,
''ynu have solid my shirt, my vest, sair.
Spoil every thing, sair. By, gar l shall
see about this, sair."
In the meantime the Hoosier had
seized pitcher containing water, and
taking tremendous draught Setting
down the pitcher, he eyed the Frenchman
for amoment, and then yelled:
"Dod blast yer old shirt 'Spose l
was goin' to burn my nards out for you
or yer shirt?-yer mean cuss! Come
down to the boat and LII give you one
of NINE"
1t was with much difficulty that the
HOLSTERS friend could allay the French
mans rage, and set matters straight
again. But ever after "Spiced Vinegar"
was by.word, and sufficient to set a
whole table in roar.
