Work Does Ii.

Alexander Hamilton once said to
an intimate friend: "Men give me
some credit for genius. All the gen,
Jus / have lies just in this: When ]
have a subject in hand, / study il
profoundly. Day and night it is
before me. l explore it in all its
bearings. My mind becomes pre-
vaded with it. Then the effort
which make the people are pleased
to cali the fruit of genius. 1t is the
fruit of labor and thought"
Mr.. Webster once replied to gen.
tleman who pressed him to speak on
a subject of great Importance: "The
subject interests me deeply, but !
have not time. There. SIR" point
ing to huge pile of letters on the
table, "is pile of unanswered letters
to which / must reply before the
close of this session, (which was then
three days off, ! have no time to
master the subject SO as to do it
justice"
''But, Mr.. Webster, few words
from YOU would do much to awaken
public attention to it,"
"If there is so much weight i'm my
words as you represent, it is because
/ do not allow myself to speak on
any subject until my mind is imbued
with it,"

where They all Came From.

While Tom Corwin was member
of the General Assembly of the State
of Ohio, he brought in bill for the
abolition of public punishment at the
whipping post. I[e made speech
thereon, to which an elderly man
replied as follows:
"Mr. Speaker, the gentlemen is not
as old as l am, and has not seen as
much of the practical operation of
the system of punishment which he
desires to abolish. When lived in
Connecticut, if fellow stole a horse
or cut up in any other rusties, we
used to tie him right up, and give
him threshin, and he always cleared
right out, and we never saw anything
more of him. It's the best way of
getting rid of rogues that ever was
tried, and without expense to the
State"
Corwin rose in reply: "Mr. Speak
err, / have often been puzzled to
account for the vast immigration
from Connecticut to the West; but
the gentleman last up has explained
it to nv entire satisfaction"
The bill passed without further
discussion,

Female Printers.

The editor of Wisconsin paper,
the Kewanee Enterprise, gives the
following account of remarkable in
stance of the ability of woman to do
the work commonly monopolized by
men, and to take care of themselves
without masculine assistance:
"Nearly five years ago the printers
employed in the Enterprise office en-
listed and went to war, leaving the
Office destitute of help. The editor
was not practical printer; and print
ers could not be obtained for love or
money. In this emergency Misses
Amanda and Fanny Decker, relatives
of the editor, volunteered to go into
the office and do what they could to
save the paper from the inevitable
alternative of suspending publication
the former giving up the school she
was teaching, for that purpose.
At this time they did not even
know the boxes, and there was no
one from whom they could obtain
instruction. Incredible as it may
seem to those acquainted with the
intricacies of the ''art preservative,"
they succeeded in getting out the pa
per the week following; and not an
issue has been missed since. During
all these years they have remained in
the office, unaided and alone; have
setall the type, corrected all the proof,
made up the forms, put the paper to
press and worked it off, mailed it,
east rollers, and turned out job work
that we will be content to keep as
specimens of what we can do. Ii this
he not a sermon in support OF Wo-
mans fitness for the practical affairs
of life. we never heard of one"

A sparrow alighted upon trough
where horse was taking his feed.
"Horsie," said the sparrow, timidly,
'let me pick little, only a grain or
two; and you will stillhave enough"
'Help YOURSELF" said the horse;
"help yourself; there is enough for us
both" And so they ate together,
and neither the one nor the other
suffered from hunger; and when the
warm sunshine came, and swarms of
flies began buzzing around, the spar
row killed them by hundreds, and SO
the horse was well paid.

Hair pins are the only sure pre-
ventative against hair falling off.
BY the use of machinery invented
within the past twenty years, farm
er's boy can often do the work of ten
men.
A person Of experience crystalizes
the wisdom he has acquired, in the
following sentence: "Courtship is
bliss, but matrimony is blister"
A Richmond negro, who bought
his freedom eighteen years ago, is
now worth $4,000, and owns the
largest livery stable in Virginia.
Two bulls, worth $4,000, died in
Putney, Vermont, from the effects
of a thorough bath of tobacco juice,
administered to kill lice.
An Irishman took the cars at Bos-
ton for Worcester. On jumping
from the cars he remarked, that I'll
he had known he &C uld have made
the journey in SO short time, he

The territory covering the marble
quarries of Rutland, VT, was sold,
within the memory of men now
living, for an old mare and colt. The
property is now valued at millions.
"Mammy!" said a little boy who,
against his will, was made to rock

has any more babies to give away,
don't you take 'em."
When the United States become
as densely populated as Holland,
they will contain nine hundred

An Unknown Territory 10 be
Explored.

There is territory about the head
waters of the Colorado, with an area
as large as the State of Illinois, about
which nothing is known of any prac-
teal value. One or two persons
have made the passage through the
great Colorado Canon, and now and
then pioneer hunter or miner has
looked from the heights into its
fearful chasms. But we know little
or nothing of the topography ofthe
country, what inexhaustible mines Of
precious metals it may contain, and
more important still, what great Ia
BILE lands and rich valleys it may
have, adapted to agricultural and to
the maintenance of a dense popula-
ton. We do not even know from
authentic sources whether the Colo
RADIO is navigable above the Great
Canon, and we know even less OF
two or three Of its largest affiuents.
The Flax river is traced on the maps
for more than two hundred miles
through northeastern Arizona; but
the country through which it flows
has been shut out from civilization,
and even from thorough exploration.
We hear of fierce savages, of floods
and droughts, of semitropical ver-
dure, and of mineral deposits richer
than have been developed in any
other part of the country. We shall
never know how much of truth or
how much Of fiction there may be in
these reports until thorough explo-
ration has been made.
We have already stated that an
exploring expedition, under the mil
itary supervision of Major-Gen.
Thomas, will be sent to this country
during the present season, compris-
ing engineers, biologists, botanists
and other scientific men, with all
necessary appliances for thorough
survey of the country. White Pine
Pioneers on the north, and the South
Pacific railroad surveyors on the
south, might be able to tell us some
thing about this unknown country
within the next year or two. But
more important results may be eX-
pceted from the labors OF this militia
nv and scientific expedition. Ifrich
mines and fertile lands should be
found, it will not he long before the
current of population will set towards
the upper waters of the Colorado.
The construction Of the Southern
Pacific railroad will have much to do
in fastening the settlement OF that
country.-,Saa Fancisco Bulletin.

Pretty Good.

The Detroit Post wittily protests
against Secretary Borie's order chang
ing the names of a number Of war
vessels to the hackneyed ones of the
British Navy, Medea, Tornado, Fury,
Gorgon, Etna, etc. 1t says that
these names, once intended to inspire
terror, have lost their significance;
and suggests that such names as Chol-
era and Yellow Fever, and Nitro
Glycerine, and Susan b. Anthony
and Anna Dickinson, would convey
some idea of real horror, force and
fear.

In a lecture on "Insect Enemies, )"
lately delivered by Mr.. Treat before
the Vineland Agricultural and Hor-
ticultural Society, the usefulness OF
loads in gardens was forcibly pointed
out. The lecturer advised his hear
ers to carry all the toads they find
into the garden, as they devour i'm
mense quantities of insects. A toad

We would employ no other if we could get
this or one like it.

Bids US help each other,
