How to be a Millionaire.

A writer in the GALAXY answers
this question of universal interest,
with the following statements:
You must be a very able man, as
nearly all millionaires are.
You must devote your life to the
getting and keeping of other mems
earnings.
You must eat the bread OF careful
ness, and you must rise early and lie
down late.
You must care little or nothing
about other mems wants, or suffer
ings, or disappointments.
You must not mind it that your
great wealth involves many others
poverty.
You must not 60 meanderlng sbout
nature, nor spend your time enjoying
air, earth, sky and water for there
is no money in it.
You must not distract your tho is
from the great purpose of your life
with the charms of art and litera-
ture.
You must not let philosophy or re-
ligion engross you during the secular
time.
You must not allow your wife or
children to occupy much of your val
liable time or thoughts.
You must never permit the fascina.
tions of friendship to inveigle y ou
into making loans, however small.
You must abandon all other am
bitions or purposes and, finally
You must be prepared to sacrifice
ease and all fanclful notions you may
have about tastes and luxuries and
enjoyments, during most, if not all,
of your natural life.

More Gold.

We were again shown, few days
since, by Jacob RIblet, several mug
gets of fine gold washed out by a
number of our citizens on the land OF
our Gallon Gold Mining Company,
near Bellville, Richland County,
Ohio. This gold is said to be worth
S22 per ounce, and the nuggets
shown us we're worth from IS cents
to S1.25 each, being termed shot
gold, and is obtained by what is
called gulch mining. The prospect
ing thus far has been very successful,
and tho mines, when fully developed
promise to pay well. The company
is making arrangements to operate
them very extensively this season,
feeling confident that they will
lrealize the "preciOus stuff" to the
extent of at least one ounce to every
miner per dsy.-Galion Rsvie,c.

conservative Germans D

The Columbia (Tennessee) Herald
published in the interesting county
of Maury, SO largely constituted Of
Ku- Klux, serves up the following
highly-seasoned dish, which we COM
mend to our Conservative Germans :
There is no more affinity between
the class of Dutch who emigrate to
America as farm laborers, and the
white people of the South, than there
is between the white people and the
negroes. As laborers they are very
little superior, and as general thing
they cannot be trusted. At least,
such is the impression that we have
taken up from limited observation
of them, and such is the character
given them by those who have tried
them. Having such an opinion OF
the Dutch emigrants, we have never
been disposed to go into ecstaciea
over their importation into Tennessee
as some of our contemporaries have
done. We are rather disposed to
chronicle their coming as another ad-
dition TO the long list of ills that af-
flict our unhappy State. English
speaking, God-serving emigrsnts we
should gladly welcome, but from the
infidel Dutch, the Lord deliver US.

Purchasing q Farm.

Collector David Henshaw was q
kind hearted man as well as able
but, smart as he was, on one occa-
sion in doing a generous act, he was
sadly taken in. An old customer
doing business in Eaton, N. H., had
failed, owing Mr.. HIS firm about
SO, 900. After settling with his 9th
er creditors, he came to see Mr.. H.
swell, SIR" said the latter, "what
can you do for us ?"
slave saved my farm for you, sir, |"
replied the unfortunate.
"Your farm" said Mr.. H., ''and
what have you got left"
"Well, sir, a horse, q pig and q
COW, and altogether l thing they may
bring me in about seventy five doll,
ars-sufficient, hope, to get myself
and family out West, where intend
to settle. By-the-way, here's the
deed of the farm, sir" SAID the poor
but honest debtor, as he passed the
document which certified Mr.. HIS
legal right to two hundred acres of
land. "nore or less" and long known
as the "Cold Stream Farm"
"Oh. that will never do," says Mr..
H., and drawing his check for $500,
he handed 1t to his old customer, re-
marking at the same time that he
was sorry for his misfortunes, and
appreciating his integrity, it gave
him great pleasure to be able to af-
ford him little help in starting
again.
The poor fellow was greatly sur.
prised, and reluctantly taking the
check, "with tear drop in each eye,
heartily thanked his over generous
creditor and departed but to be seen
by Mr.. H., never more.
About the first of the April follow
ing, Mr. Henshaw thought he would
go up to Eaton and take look at his
real estate there. Arriving at about
dusk, he pu: up at the tavern kept by
his old friend Marsh, who, ON learn
ing his guests errand, lsaid he would
60 out with him the next morning
and show him where the farm lay.
Next day soon after breakfast, the
two sailed out to see it. After pro-
ceeding few rods, the old tavern
keeper halted, and directing his CON-
panion's attention to bare but very
steep and rough looking mountain
that stood few miles of, remarked
''that was called Bald Mountain"
"That's tough looking place" !"
said the other.
"Well," continued the tavern keep
er, "the location of your property
the Cold Stream Farm-is on the top
of that mountain.
"Yes, but how do you get there p
''Why, you don't suppose anybody
