Rear.Admiral STEWART was born In PhIadel-
phia July o. 177S just after the evacuation Of the
CITY by the British, and on Sunday last was called
ON by many Of his friends at his residence, in that
ciy it being the occasion Of the celebration of his
eiehty-ninth birthday. His original entry into the
nsyy WAS on the 9th Of March, 1885, so that he has
been over sixtynine years in the service; has been
in over forty engagements with the enemies Of his
country. among the number being the famous
bombardment of Tripoi, August 8. 1904. he cap
tured his Britannia Majestys two ships-of-war the
C,,aue and Leuant, when in command ofthe frigate
Consultation, February 20, 1915.
The African Repository, organ Of the American
Colonization Society, speaks OF what has been
done within few years for the moral renovation
Of the African continent, as follows: "On the
Western coast alone, within tho last fifty years,
some two hundred Christian churches have been
organized, and upward OF fifty thousand hopeful
converts have been gathered into those churches.
Two hundred schools several seminaries, and o
cousge at Monrovia, are in operation, and not less
than twenty thousand native youths are receiving
a Christian training in those institutions at the
preseut day. Thirty different dialects have been
studied out and reduced to writing, into most of
which large portions OF sacred Scripture, as well
as other religious books, have been translated,
printed, and circulated among the people.
The Manchester IN. .H.) Daily Union says that
at no time during the last thirty years, except a
short time during the early days Of the rebellion,
has the cotton and woollen manufacturing business
been in 80 depressed condition. The mills are
running at loss in Lowell, Lawrence, land most Of
the other manufacturing towns in Massachusetts,
and throughout New England. The Manchester
mills and print works have goods on hand unsold
Of the value Of upward Of two millions Of dollars.
The same slate of things exists with the Amos
keag Company. The Stark mills are said to have
sunk $4,000 within few months for the same
reasons. The shoe business at Lynn, Haverhill,
Randolph, and other large shoe-manufacturing
towns in New England is said to be in very low
condition as compared with what it has been in
former years, when orders for shoes came in thick
and fast from the South and West. These difficult
ties are attributed to the chaotic state Of the pot
ical affairs Of the nation.

Inc hrst SHOWS generally lie mo,e level
tnan any which fall late in the season, and
this opportunity should be embraced. as soon
as a sufficient quantity has fallen TO cover fbe
rocks and rough places, for bringing TO the
house a sufficient quantity of fire wood to
last year. In this cold country fuel is am
article of first Importance, and he who keeps
years supply ahead is prudent and wise
man. ..
Though the days are short, more labor may
be performed with a sled in December than
in February or March when the SHOWS are
dritted in heaps or where the sun has made
black patches in the pathway.
If the ground is yet bare the opportunity
should be improved to pick up the broken
and scattered wood in the forest, when it is
still worth something for fuel, but nothing is
saved IN this way unless we can get it with
out breaking down the young growth.
L: is now generally agreed, that the best
mode OF cutting wood is, to clear lot COM
pletely, and let the new growth have fair
start, unobstructed by tall and branching
trees of an older growth. When lot is dc :
signed for wood merely, without regard to
timber, We gain by cutting while the wood is
young; the wood is better; it is more easily
prepared for the fire; and the new shoots
from a young stump are much more vigorous
than from an old one. .a...r4 -H.

Depend u pom Yourselves.

This is an excellent principle fol the work
ing and trading classes of the community to
adopt, but we fear the true philosophy OF it is
not generally understood. Notwithstanding
the many ties which connect man with So
ciety, he nevertheless has stamped upon his
brow the original decree, that he must be Chief
ly dependent upon his own exertions and la
bors for support. 1t is an incontrovertible
fact, founded upon general experience, that
when a man trusts to his own exertions in
life, he generally sueceeds,-if not in amass-
ing fortune, at least in obtaining comfort
able living On the other hand, he who de.
pends upon others for his success in life, OF,
ten finds himself wofully disappointed. Moth
ing gives so good an appearance of well doing
as the personal activity of a man daily ex-
erted for his own interests. But should the
same individual find himself suddenly offered
patronage. likely to enrich him, or fall into
the inheritance of some Anticipated dame, it
is ten to one that he ceases to be industrious
from that moment, and is finally ruined.
The only true way to make happy progress
in this world Is to go on in a persevering pur-
suit of one good object, neither turning to the
right nor the left, but making our business
our pleasure as much as possible, till we find
ourselves at the goal of our wishes, with
fortune almost unconseiously in our posses
sion. Humanity, kindness, friendship, have
their claims upon us which we should always
consider and look upon with good and proper
feelings, but not injure ourselves by giving
too freely to relieve the wants Of others. We
should be just. kind and affable to all, and en-
deavor to instil into the minds OF others the
same spirit Of industry and perseverance,, that
anmates us, enjoining them always to re-
member, that success in life is more certain
of attainment by their own unaided exertions
than by any reliance for assistance upon
others. TRAM.

The residue OF the roots which is always
the largest half, is composed of vegetable
fibre. The nutritive matter of a certain
amount in some roots, We suppose is not
equal in value as food with the nutritive mat
ter OF the same amount in others. What is
adapted to the constitution of one species of
animals, is not always equally adapted 10 the
necessities of other kinds. The larinaceous
matter of potatoes the starch-whch, by
the above table appears 10 be much greatcr
than in any other vegetable, may not, after
all, support life so long as smaller quantity
OF other matter-as the saccharine.
& In any event, the mangold wnrtzel has a
decided advantage over the Tutaaga. 1t
has more than twice as much nutritive mat
ter and nearly three times as much sacchar-
inc matter. The latter is peculiarly adapted
to mich cows and to swine, which ale greedy
for every saccharine substance. Even carrots,
according to the above chemical analysis,
have less nutritious matter, and less sacchar-
inc Substance than the mangold wurtzel
For this reason, amoast others, we have for
years preferred to raise the mangold wurtzel
to any other roots for stock. Were it not
that they are more easily raised and har-
vested than parsnips, we might give pref
erence to the latter. As it is we usually raise
about as many OF one as OF the other kind.

During the past year MIR. Randall the Post
master General, has sold over three hundred
and seventy-one millions of letter stamps,
over forty million OF plain stamped envelopes,
and more than sixteen millions OF stamped en-
velopes on which he had kindly printed the
names, addresses and requests tor return of
the persons who bought them. He sold also
nearly two millions OF newspaper wrappers,
stamped. The whole amount OF money he
received for these articles was S13,40l ,073.
The whole revenue OF his department was
over fifteen million dollars, which is less then
half a dollar head for our whole population.
Next year, however, Mr. Randall means TO
spend over twenty-five millions, and expects
to receive sixteen millions. He complains,
justly, that the franking privilege is very gross
~ abused; the fac simite franks of different
members OF Congress are freely used to circu.
late obscene books and papers, lottery circu-
lars, business cards, &c and to cover all kinds
OF business and domestic correspondence of
persons not authorized by law to ilank mail
able matter, and unless some means are used
to cure this evil, presently a million year
will be needed to carry the franked letters
and packages alone. This free circulatian of
what is for the most part twaddle, now costs
seven thousand dollars per annum.

Mr.. Randall employs 6376 contractors. who
have II42 mail routes, with a total length OF
203, ,240 miles, which is so often trayersed as

of transportation.
There are now eighteen railroad routes ON
which what is called the railway postal SER
vice is used-that is 10 say, the mails are sort
ed and prepared Tor delivery on the cars Mr..
Randall says: assuming that the railway
postal service on five thousand miles is cost
ing S3o,OO0 per annum, OIL an average of 81
per mile over the ordinary or old route-agent
service, the fact that twelve, twenty-four and
often forty eight hours are saved in the trans
mission OF all the mails passing over these
five thousand miles would seem sufficient to
justify the increased expenditure.
Twelve hundred and twenty-four money
order offices are now in operation; 45S have
been established during the year; 3I4, ,496 or

In the cultivation of edible roots for the
use of farm stocks it is important to know
what kinds contain the greatest amount OF
nutriment adapted to the physical advantage
of the animals. In relation to this subject
we happen to have amongst our loose papers
one kindly furnished ms by the late DR.. Eze-
kiel Holmes, which exhibits the comparative
quantity OF nutritious matter OF several sorts
of common roots, and the component parts
of which they are made up. We give it in

nutritive matter in 1000 parts of each:
