WHY DON'T YOU LEARN A TRADE.

This question was pronounced in our
hearing, few days since, to man
who had been for several months un-
successfully seeking employment as a
clerk or a salesman in some OF our lead
ing houses. Complaining of his ill-
luck, one OF his friends, who knew he
had mechanical talent, but doubted
whether he could make himself useful
either as a clerk or salesman, put the
interrogatory to him which we have
placed as the caption of this article
The reply was, that trade was not so
respectable as mercantile occupation,
Under this delusive idea, our stores are
crowded with young men who have no
capacity for business, and who, because
of the fancied respectability of doing
nothing, waste away their minority up
on salaries which cannot possibly liqui-
date their expenditures.
Late, too late in lite, they discover
their error, and before they reach the
age of thirty. many OF them look with
envy upon the thrifty mechanic, whom,
In the days of their boyhood, they were
accustomed to deride. The false views
of respectability which prevail in the
soi-disdnt fashionable society of the
present day have ruined thousands
more.

SUMMER EVE,

Fair Summer Eve! sweet as the purling
stream
To parched lips, amid Arabian sand,
Calm as the silent echoes of a dream,
That watts the exile to his native land.
Kind Summer Eve! life's hard realities
Are melted by the spirit-soothing breath,
The stricken heart forgets its miseries,
The dying dreams not hopelessly of death.
Cool Summer Eve! thy gentle murmurings
Tell me of happy momets, ever fed,
Nor heed the stubborn course of Saturn's
wings,
Sweet Summer Eve! I've sat and watched
thee die,
And one by one the tlmid statlets shine,
Celestial rivals of her glistening eye,
Whose loving hand was fondly clasped
in mine.
Dear Summer Evel we sat and watched
thee die,
From twilight shadows into gloom of
night,
Nor rocked how fast the happy hours could
fly;
When love had lent his pinions TO their
flight.
Still Summer Eve! thou hast full many a
tale
Fain would I, lingering, hearken yet TO
thee, kssE
Charmer Of grief, though other loves may
fail,
A welcome thou wilt ever meet from me.

SUPPORT YOUR HOME PAPER.

We know of nothing that is moro dis
heartening to the publisher Of country
newspaper, than TO be told as he often
is: 81 feel too poor to take your pape:.
| take the Herald for some other hug3
weekly and it costs me but two dol
lars year, and contains deal more
reading matter than yours" Does that
man consider thai its receipts Tor ore
week are double the yearly receipts OF
a country paper? Does he consider al
so that if that paper were published a
thousand years it would not benefit
him as much as his home paper does IN
one? That is the thing. See which
will build up your own section; see
which will be the greater benefit to
your own district. 1t is the country
paper that directs the attention of peo-
pie to your farms, and publishes to the
world its advantages, invites capital
and advar ces every interest in its own
and adjoining counties. Besides, is It
true that the huge weekly made up OF
the pondcrous articles of the daily, con-
tains more valuable matter than the
country paper? 1t Is not. 1t is al
ways filled up with lengthy editorials
on some subject foreign to your inter-
es.s and your taste, with long-winded, |,
gusty novels, 1.-THE very bane of the
reading publicly and extended accounts
of this aud that while your county pa
per, if conducted properly, will give
you everyt hing OF Importance in she
most concise manner, and you have
your time left to spend in something
more profitable than wading through
a whole case of type.
Let no one fail 80 take his county pa
per. first, and if he should want a daily

SALT BRINE, A PREVENTIVE AGAINST
SMUT.

Among the many experiments made
to guard against smut i'll wheat, per-
haps none has been more successful
than that of satutatlng the seed i'll
brine. Its use is very old, and the dis
coverS Of it wholly accidental. In 1910
a ship laden with wheat was wrecked
near Bristol, England After Being
soaked some time, the cargo was res
cued and sold to farmers, and most OF
it sown. The following harvest the
wheat crop III England was generally
damaged by smut except chat obtalned
from the wheat which had been soaked
in the salt water. This marked differ
ence was sufficient to justify the exper-
imenU again, and its success has kept 1t
in practice ever since.
Yhe following came under our own
observation Two farmers procured
fine sample Of wheat for scotland diyfd-.
ed it equally between them. The ono.
soaked his wheat in brine, the other
having no faith in it neglected to do so.'
The former had not smutty ear in his
whole crop, while the yield OF the latter
was almost worthless on account of it,
Other causes may have EXISTED TO pro-
duce this difference, but none that wero
apparent, and from The remarkable dit
ference in the two results we are led to
believe that it. was effected by the
means employed in the one case. 1t
has been fully ascertained that this pre-
ventatiye will not avail when the seed
is affected with smut, unless the season
is very favorable, which alone will pre-
vent smut.-IMd. Farmer.

THE NEGRO RAvISHER,

The Lexington correspondent of the
Dispatch gives the following particu-
lars of the late horrible affair in Rock
bridge, which, as our readers are aware,
resulted in the lynching OF Jesse Ed
wards, the negro demon who violated
Miss Hite.
Your correspondent has heard a re-
sumo of the testimony against Edwards,
and it is perfectly conclusive of his guilt
independent of his confession. The de-
tails are truly horrible. He nearly tore
off her upper lip in sitting her cries
while accomplishing his. tiendish pur-
pose, and then beat her TO death with a
rock which he held in his hand-trac-
turing her skull, beating in her nose
and face, and hacking her in the most
cruel manner. The fiend made full
confession of all of these and other
sickening details the day of his COM
mitment to Jail. 1t alsos appears thai
upon two occasions, not. long before, he
had attempted to outrage negro girls.
He was only eighteen years old, and of
course not entitled to register or vote,
and it is not known that he had shown
any activity in politics. The miscre-
ant, then, who attempted to make po-
litical capital out of this affair deserves
to be hung on the same tree on which
the brutal murderer and raVisher met
the reward of his crime:

WELLS RECORD.

In long and able article, the EnQai-
rer OF yesterday establishes against
Wells, from the record, the following
black and damnlng facts:
lst. That In published letter he
has dared to utter the vile and infa-
nous calumny that the people of Vir-
ginia do not regard their oaths.
I'd. That he appealed to the Recon-
struction Committee of Congress to
prevent another registration in Virgin
ia, "beeause, as he said, there were
twenty-five thousand white men in the
State, who, under the present recon-
struction laws, are entitled to be regis
tered and to vote and ifregistered they
would carry the State against the Re-
publican parGy. He wanted to disffan-
chIse twenty five thousand white voters
in that State"
3D.. That he opposed, before the same
committee, the eXcisiou of the test-oath,
which would disqualify from office and
from service on juries nincty-five per
cent, of the white people of the State,
on the ground that su IN eXcision would
be fatal TO his party.
4th. That he was so intent on retain
ing this monstrous provision of the
Constitution that he avowed his pur-
pose to leave the State ifit were strick-
en- out.
9th. That he openly and shamelessly
declared to said committee his desire to
have prescription put in force in Vir-
ginia greater than that enforced by the
reconstruction acts,
9th. That he desired limited white suf-
frage and universal negro suffrage.
7th, That he protested that his party
would not accept the Constitution with
the disfranchising clauses stricken out.
8th. That he asserted it to be abso-
lutely necessary, to carry out the pro-
visions of Congress, to disfranchlse a
certain number of white voters, "what-
ever number may be required"
This is Wells true record. Keep 1t
before the people and hold him to it,
These are his real sentiments. His re-
cent attempt to make it appear that he
occupies the other ground is the mere
effort of a demagogue to deceive. Nail
him to his own platform, as the base
slanderer and atrocious prosecutor ol
the people of Virginia. The little
duck-legged adventurer, what efiron-
terry in .him to look Virginia audience
in the face Rich. Wing.

SOCIAL LOVE,

How sweet is social affection? When
the world is dark without we have light
within. When cares disturb the breast,
when sorrow broods about the heart,
what ioy gathers in the circle OF love /?
We forget the world, with all its ami
mosities, while blessed with social kind
ness. That man cannot be unhappy,
who has hearts that vibrate in sympa-
thy with his own, who is cheered by
the smile of affection and the voice OF
tenderness. Let the world be dark and
cold, let the hate and animosity of bad
men gather about him in the place OF
business; but when he entersthe ark OF
love, his own cherished circle he for
gets all these, and the cloud passes from
his brow and the sorrow fromh his heart.
The warm sympathies of his wife and
children dispel every shadow, and he
feels thrill of joy in his bosom which
words are not adequate to express. He
who is stranger to the joys of kind
ness has not begun to liye.'

A BLAST FROM BEEcBER.

We Gull the following theological GU
riosities from sermon on "The Beau
ties of Moral Qualities preached by
Mr.. Beecher on Sunday, May I6, 1863,
and published in the last number of
the Plymouth Pulpit
have no overweening attachment to
Che church as a physical organization.
/ am rather under than over the line
on that subject. L believe that the
church is useful; but | Go not believe
that any particular church on the face
of the globe is ordained OF Cod. | do
not believe one church is any better
than another SO far as ordinance is con-
cerned. do not believe that there is
any pattern whatsoever laid down in
the New Testament according to which
churches should be organized. [ be-
lieve that churches stand on the same
ground that common schools and lite
rary institutions do. They are found
co be useful, aud to promote mans
growth, and so they are right.
l believe that ordinances, external
forms, are matters of utter indifference.
Baptism Is baptism, whether it be affu-
sion, or sprinkling, or immersion. The
Lords Supper, if it be administered by
pope, is good enough /; if it be admin
istcred by a cardinal, 1t Is good enough /;
If it be administered By a priest or min-
lister, it is good enough if it be adj
ministered by the father in the family,
it is good enough; and If there is no
one else to administer it, and you ad-
minister it yourself, it is just as good.
rhe Lords Supper belongs to every
man that belongs to the Lord Jesus
Christ; and he has just as much right
to administer 1t to himself as to have it
administered by priest.
In regard to churches, ordinances
and governments, take the broadest
ground, and say that they are useful.
but tina. there is not one of them that
is obligatory, as having warrant in
scripture, and no mar can come to us
saying, "Thus saith the Lord" in re-
speet to them.
Do you suppose that is the wedding,
when the young man and blushlng
bride stand up and exchange vows?-
The wedding took place when when
their two hearts rushed together AS
one, and when they clasped each other
and said, gThine for life ; mine for life.

burg District, South Carolina, offers a
charming Illustration of the practical
effects of reconstruction, and presents
fair picture OF scenes that will be COM

is not voted down. At the present term
of the Court of General Sessions, which
commenced ON Monday OF last week,
out OF thirty. one petit jurors summon

eight were white men. OF the Grand
Jury twelve were negroes and seven
white. AS but eighteen of the petit ju-
| rors answered to the summons, thirteen
extra jurymen, all of them negroes,
were drawn from the bystanders, Out
of these, two sets ofjurymen were en-
paneled. The first jury was made up
of ten negroes and two whites; the sec

TEAMS FOR THE FARM.

The question is occasionally as to
whether horses or oxen are the most
valuable for farm labor, bdt like the one
about "B;lly Patterson" It remains an
open one for the very good reason 1t
admits of no exact solution. For some
kinds of work on the farm, horses may
be best; for others, oxen. In either
case much will depend upon the TACT
whether or not the animals are proper
/ ly trained or broken to the work re-
auired. As a general thing span OF
horses will plough over more gronnd
in dav than yoke of oxen because
tEey walk faster-yet occasionally eX-
ceptions to this occur. We remember
to have aided in turning over a hllow
of twenty-five acres in which aspah OF
horses and yoke OF oxen were en-
ploved. It was decided to test Their
relative capacity for the work-both
teams being allowed their natural gait:
Equal sections of land were assigned
| to both teams, and the oxen came ou5
invariably little aiead-gaining time
at each turning of the Corners Phey,
were then tried ON the same land for. II
day with no marked advantage on eth
er side, These oxen were broke to the
work; held their heads well up and
marched along with steady, stately
step. In this particular Instance the
oxen were better for pfowmg than the
horses, for the simple reason that per-
forming equal work, they cost less Tor
keeping and were more readily prepar-
ed for labor.
When the field of operations is at any
considerable distance from the barn or
pasture, the horse would have the adj
vantage in it. AS general thing, the
summer season through, horses can DO
more work than oxen for this reasoL, IL
no other, they can stand the heat bet
ter. Both are important on a consid-
erable farm, and if the OK is found TO
be worth the most when age suspends
| labor. the horse will have made UP the
difference by the celerity OF his move
ments, and the more diversified uses Tor
which his labor has been made availa-
BILE. Both are good in their places, ana
no extensive farmer is properly equip
| ped for business who is destitute OF
either. .-R,gal Nelo Yorker.

SLIGHT MISTAKE,

If you want to laugh until the tears

teoric shower, copied from the Waested

that the typos transposition of two lit
