q" #a
b The following anecdotes are told of
the late w. NJ. Swain, formerly proprie-
tor of the Philadelphia Ledger: n,
As a business mamie was very rigid
in his adherence 20 what he conceived, to
be sound business principles. 'sNeyer
fix price on another mans goods" was
one of those principles. A paper dealer
met him one day in TIE street. -.
.g- ''AiE S." said he, Il have some excel
lent white paper ofthe size Of the Ledger.
Do you wish to buy it % ~
1b 'lles, sir," was the reply. t-q =
o5 Nv hat are you willing to give for it?''
was the next inquiry. :, -,.-.-.'r-.
Precisely the. worth of it, sir; nei-
ther more nor ,less,"' was the rejoinder. :
~ ''Oh, of course. But mean, MIR. S.,
what can you afford to give me for it ?''
Double price, if choose, but don't"
''But, fix the price, SIR rt
81 never put price on another mans
goods. If you don't know the value of
your own paper you should not attempt
to dispose of it. if you do, you are vast
ing my time and your own in idle cir
eumlocutions to get the advantage of
me. Tell your price. fit suits, well;
if not You may find some other custom

SELECT POETRY.
The Old School House.

Whatever else to The night has gone
The night that never shall know a dawn
1t stands undimmed in my memory still,
The old brown school house on the hill.
l see the briers beside the door,
The rocks where we played at keeping store,
The steps we dug in the earth below,
And the ''bear track trod In :he Wlnter snow
The corner brick on the chimney lies
Just as il did in my boyish eyes,
And in dreams throw the stones again,
| threw at the toppling brick in vain.
The names on the weather board arc part
OF the sacred treasures of my heart;
Some yei a place with earth sounds keep,
And some in the holds Of silence sleep.
I hear the growl, from his central lair,
OF the swiftest boy who stood for "bear; y
And the sound brings back the joy and glow
OF the chase around the ring of snow.
Often again in thought slide
On the stone boat down the long hill side,
The breathiess speed, and the dizzy reel,
And the wind in my lifted hair feel.
All me There are spots that hold NY dead
In sleep unstirred by menory's tread;
a I'd MANY a scene of lifes triumph lies
Deep in The mists that never rise.
And things of rapture and things of tears,
Are hidden within the veil of years, g q -- y
But the old brown school house on the hill,
lrstands undmmed in my memory still.

b. THE REDUcTIoN OF TAxEs-The an
nouncement that the House of Repre-
sentatiyes had agreed to remove all TAX
es from the industry of the country With
the exceptions of tobacco, liquors, petro-
leum and gas. was hailed throughout the.
country with great satisfaction But
this bill looked alarming to the Senate
Finance Committee as calculated to re-
duce the revenue of the Government too
much and liable toresult in a deficit of
100000, ,00oin the income OF the Treas
ury. Mr.. Sherman, thefore introduced
bill adding to- the taxable articles in the
House bill turpentine, coffee, roasted or
ground, and articles intended as q asubsti-
tute for coffee, spices, mustard and sugars,
candies, diamonds, emeralds, precious
stones and limitations thereof, and all Jew
elry. Secretary Mccullough has written
a letter to the Chairman, of the Senate
Finance Committee, Mr. Sherman, say
ing that the abolition OF the duty on cot
ton will reduce the revenue twenty mil
lions, and that the House bill viii reduce
them sixty millions more He 5also'says
that the cause Of the large 7inpertations
during the last two fiscal years has been
the high prices prevailing in the coun-
try, and that the removal Of all taxes, as
the House proposes, besides. the, conse-
quent necessary reduction in the revenue
viii have the effect of reducing the gene
raj level Of prices throughout the count
.ry, and thus tend to interrupt and to les:
sen importations, and, therefore, to di-
minlsh the customs revenue. ~
In the House Bill becomes law, he
estimates that the total revenue for the
next fiscal year viii fall from . hundred
to a hundred and twenty millions below
the estimates made in his last annual re-
port The result of this would be an In
crease in the public debt, than which, he
says, ''nothing could bemore disastrous
It's certainly very Questionable whether,
in our eager haste to escape the burdens
of taxation, the House has not reduced
the taxable articles too much Mr.. Sher-
mans Bill viii obviate the immense re- /
duction that Mr.. Mccullough apprehends,
and save the country from any material
increase of the public debt. '''l =, =

A New Rrilding Material.


b In building houses it has become a
common practice for the builders to buy
the doors and windows already made. 1t
is now proposedain like manner to sup
ply them with the walls and ceilings, in
the form of slaby to be. used as substi-
tute for lath and plaster. These slabs
are made of cane tibre-a cheap materi
al obtained from the cane of the South
ern canebrakes by disintregation effect
ed by the explosive force of steam, and
costing about ten dollars ton, mixed
with, clay, resin, size and other cheap
materials. The cane fibre is also made
into paper of various kinds ,.,.~,4di S.
The following advantages are claimed
for this new building material: In a few
hours all the walls and ceilings of house
can be put up by mailing them to the or
binary battens upon which the laths are
nailed. The work can be done, as well
in Winter as in Summer. time, and no
drying is required, The fbrous slabs
do not warp, crack, break, peel, shell,
crumble nor decay and they keep out
damp, heat and cold better than lath and
plaster. They are somewhat similar, but
asserted to be superior to the panels and
wainscoting found in many places and
mansions in England. Their cost is SAID
to- be less than half the cost of lath and
plaster, It's proposed to make them
fire-proof and water proof, that they may
sesye forthe roofs and outer walls OF the
houses better THAI clapboard and Shin
giles. -.
According to estimates which have
been made, the cost OF an ordinary cot
tage house will be very much less than
the present cost of frame house OF the
snme size: and it is claimed tbrous slab
houses can be erected in less than one.
fourth of the time now required to erect
the other houses. ~. E.- ..- lr.
Mr.. Beecher in sermon told the fol-
lowing 1t had been stated that on, one
occasion, when Admiral Dupont, one of
the ablest men of the American navy
was explaining to Admiral Farragut the
reasons why he had not been able to en-
ter the bay of Charleston and capture
the forts, Farragut said to him !: "Ah,
Dupont, you did not believe you could
do it, and that is the reason" Lo, II
Young men had work before them to do,
and believe they could not do 1t, they
never would do it. .a..... a.-- .lia-

The demand for cheap shoes has been
so pressing of late years, says TIE Lynn
RePote,,, that it has induced the most
rigid economy in the manufacture. Hard
ly scrap of leather is allowed to go to
waste. The wagon loads of odds and
ends made in cutting, the refuse of the
splitting machines, are all worked up
again into that kind of leather known as
."pancake.' This is made by pasting and
pressing together the scraps of which we
haze spoken. This being rolled and dried
is made to do service in the cheaper
grades of shoes, as inner sole leather, or
as 'ilifts'' for. heels. So skillfully are
these operations performed that some
times slthesHbstitute is, for some purposes,
almost as good as the genuine article.

Women's Venerations.
By MRS STOWE.

If women have one weakness more
marked than men, it is towards venera-
ton They are born worshippers-ma-
kers of silver shrines for some divinity
or other, which of course they always
think fell straight down from Heaven.
The first step towards falling in love with
an ordinary mortal is generally to dress
him out with all manner of real or fam
cied superiority; and having made him
up, they worship him. Now, truly
great man, man really grand and noble
in art and intellect, has this advantage
with women, that he is an idol ready
made to hand, and so that very painsta.
king and ingenious sex have less labor'in
getting him up, and can beready to wor-
ship him on shorter notice. In particu-
lar is this the case where sacred pro-
fession and moral supremacy are added
to the intellectual. Just think of the ca
reer of the celebrated preachers and di-
vines in all ages. Have they not stood
like the images ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS the
king set up - and all woniankind, CO.
quettes and first not excepted, besn ready
to fall down and worship, even before the
sound of coinet, flute, harp, sacbut, etc.
Is not the faithfal Paula, with her beau
tiful face, PROSTATE before poor old, lean,
haggard, dying st. Jerome, in the most
splendid painting in the world, an en-
blem and sign Of woman's external
power of selfsacrifce to what she deems
noblest in man ? Docs not old Richard
Baxter tell us, with delightful single
heartedness, how his wife fell in love
with him first, in spite of his long pale
face; and how she confessed dear soul,
after many years of married life, that she
had found him less bitter and sour than
she expected? The fact is, women are
burdened with fealty, faith, reverence,
more than they know what to do with
they stand like a hedge of sweet peas,
throwing out endrils everywhere for
something high and strong to climb up
by, and when they find it, be it ever so
rough in the bark, they catch upon it.
And instances are not wanting of those
who have turned away from the fiattery
of admirers to PROSTATE themselves at
the feet of a genuine hero, who never
wooed them, except by heroic deeds and
the rhetoric of noble life. aG8I5.ad1
