THE BORROWING NUISANCE.

A correspondent of the Northwestern
Farmer, whose righteous mitigation has
been aroused by those intolerable pests,
unscrupulous borrowers, writes to that pa.
per as follows:
My neighbor wanted to borrow my shov.
el-would return it in the evening. Eve
ming came, but no shovel. The next eve
ming it was quietly returned to its accus-
toned hook in the wood-house, the blade
covered over one-half its surface with a
coating of dry mortar. I pride myself on
my clean and bright shovels and hoes.
Half an hours work with an old knife blade,
and the use of sheet of sand-paper, re
stored it.
Another time he was building pig pen.
The posts were too long, and they were
very hard, and his saw very dull. OF
course he borrowed mine, and he sawed of
nail with 1.-THE posts had been used be-
fore. He sent his little boy to return the
message-"Pa would a sent it and got it
filed, but he knowed you allus filled your
own saw, and it wouldn't take but few
minutes to sharp it again"
Another neighbor "borrows" the privi-
lege of getting water at my we'll. The well
lis deep, and we draw windlass. 1t is
hard for my wife to draw up bucketful,
for she is feeble, and to save her, usually
fill the bucket before going away to my
business. AS the well is in an out kitch-
en-, leave the filled bucket hanging in the
curb. My neighbor sneaks in, empties the
bucket, and is mean enough to 60 away
without reflling it. Wife and I conclude
it is better to suffer wrong than have diff.
fculty with a near neighbor, and so for the
sake of peace, we submit to this wear and
tear of soul and body. When the same
person borrows flour, for the best article, a
a poor one is returned. Eggs, matches, ga
DRAWN O. tea," are never returned.
I might increase to great length record
of these examples, but my object is only to
illustrate the position taken, and the habit
ual borrowers code is lax one. This
may be partially accounted for by the fact
that the independent, self-reliant portion of
the community seldom borrow, and the
practice is mostly left to people of the op-
posite kind. The unscrupulous borrower
usually belongs to one of two classes: The
easy, shiftless sluggard, or the greedy,
grasping victim of avarice. The first bor-
rows with dim expectation of paying
sometime, and the hope that he may be
able to do so; the other borrows with full
design never to make an honest return if
he can avoid tit shall be clear gain, if he
can make it so. Both are knaves, and un-
reliable in all matters of trust.
Among honest men, borrowing may be
made convenience, and mutually benef-
cial. Yet think the question is worth
considering, whether it does not demoral-
ize a man-weaken his self-reliance. We
get to relying on our neighbors more and
more, for the things ourselves ought to
procure. On the whole my advice is to
borrow only in cases of great need, when
you cannot get along without doing 80.

liable weekly record ofevents and an entertaining
vehicle of light literature, which, whieit instructs
and pleases, aims to promote virtue as we'll as in

CHEERINa.-The Missouri Republca

CHEERING.-The Missouri Republican
says cheering accounts reach it from all
quarters in regard to the success of the
Seymour and Blair ticket. 1t says:
Everywhere it. appears to be felt that
unless Radicalism is defeated in the pres
ent Presidential contest there will never be
another Presidential election, but that the
Republic will have been lost forever, and
given over to military domination. The
purpose of the people is evidently deep and
resolute to step forward in this crisis and
literally save the country. Hundreds of
changes have already come to our own
knowledge among those who have been
heretofore acting with the Republican par
ty, supposing it to be a loyal, an honest and
decent party, but who have become dis
gusted with its false pretences, its corrup-
ton, its recklessness and its profigacy.-
The detection in the Republican or Radical
ranks is really amazing, and it is fast be-
coming a rout and a panic ...

and the explosion of steam boilers in vari-
GUS parts of the country, Professor Loomis
suggested very uncomfortable theory in
regard to the earth itself. He thinks it not
impossible that sufficient steam might be
generated in the burning centre of the
world to blow the whole globe to pieces
A volcanic eruption under the sea, or near
it like that of Vesuvius now in progress,
may at any moment convert the earth into
a huge steam boiler, by letting the water
in upon central fires, to be followed, for
aught we know, by an explosion that shall
rend it apart, and send the fragments ca
reering through space as small planets or
meteors, each bearing off some distracted
member or members Of the human families
to make perchance new discoveries and new
acquaintances in other parts of the plane
tary system now revolving with US. So
that the final catastrophe may, after all, be
only boiler explosion on magnificent
scale Of grandeur and destruction. -gr
