Take twenty boys of sixteen, in this
or any town in the State, and let them
go to work, three or four in a dry
goods store, boot and shoe finishing
establishment, and printing offices. In
ten years they will have become men
of twenty-six, and the majority will
then be about as far along in the busi-
ness as they ever will be. One or two
only in each of the above branches,
will be established in business for
themselves or connected with some
firm doing a good business, and the
rest will be barely getting living
and growing about their poor luck.
Now we assert that there is good rea-
son for their poor success, and thab
''luck" has but little, if anything at
all, to do with it.
If we take the trouble to ascertain
the real facts in their several ca5. s.
we shall find that those young men
who became masters in their trades,
or leading men in their pursuits, were
not AFRAID to ,00rk, and were deter
mined to succeed. They looked be-
yOnd the day and week. They made
themselves valuable and useful tO
their employers by being always
faithful, reliable and willing to do
what they could for the interest Of
hose for whom they worked. When
press of business came, they were
ready and willing to work extra hours,
and without sulking or grumbIing,
well knowing that business must bo
attended to when it came. and that
there was plenty of dull times during
the year, which would more than
counterbalance any extra briskne5s Of
! the busy season. To sum it all up,
these young men identified themselves
with the establishments where they
were employed became useful to
their employers, in fact, fixtures, who
could be i'll spared, and in due course
of time, having gained experience,
were invited to take hand with the
already established house, or else
boldly struck out for themselves
Here, then, is the lesson, which is. II
you wish to become successful masters,
learn first to become faithful servants.

A CIincher from France.

Every man of sound judgment, de-
string the promotion of the best inter
ests of our country, will heartily re-
spond to the argument in behalf Of
protection to established industries,
made by NJ. Theirs in the Corps Leg
islatif on the 22d of January last. He
said:
81 can understand how nation,
when at the beginning of its career,
like America, for instance, might say
to itself, Would it not be better for
me to send over to old Europe my
corn, my cotton, my tobacco, in ex-
change for her manufactures p 1 can
understand that, though I think the
nation would be mistaken; and the
example of all young and free nations
proves that she would be mistaken.
can understand, however, that she
might hesitate before entering into
the industrial and manufacturing ca
reer. But that when she has develop
ed within herself an immense amount
of skilled labor; when she has covered
the face of her country with manufac-
turing establishments, that she should
allow these to perish, is a thing l can
not comprehend, and can never justi,
| fy. II would be wanting in good sense
wanting in humanity, wanting in the
principles of civilization"
Such is the calm, deliberate verdict
of the foremost inaneier of France, a
country which has tested to the bitter
end the suicidal and ruinOus policy
which the Free Traders would force
upon her people. Against evidence
like this before us. how can the shall.
low theories of Commissioner Wells
and his deluded school hope to pre-
vail? If France, with her thronged
population, her army of cheap and
willing laborers, cannot sustain her
manufactures without protection,
what would be the fate of American
manufactures, where every workman
demands wages which the French
pauper laborers would consider fabu-
lous? The argument of Mr.. Wells is
the old story of theories against facts
paper estimates and abstruse con
clusions against the teachings Of hard
practical experience. These words
of M. Thiers are Opportunely and fit.
! ly spoken, and we recommend them
to the earnest consideration of every
man in whose mind there yet remains
doubt as to the true policy of Con
gress on the tariff question: Leader

Home Correspondence.
From Paint TIP.

lfore about the "Highland Union Lgl-
ceana"- Correction Crops, &c.
Mr.. EDITOR: Seeing an article in
your paper, recently, concerning the
"Highland Union Lyceum," Thought
it would not be out of place, to cor
rect an error of the writer. He says
the "Female and Negro Suffrage
question, was decided in favor of the
Affirmative. I beg leave to differ
with him. It is true, as "Inferior''
said, there were five judges appointed,
but one of them was compelled to GO
home before the decision was given,
and it was claimed honestly, nc
doubt that he gave his decision be-
fore leaving, in favor of the Afirma.
tive but the judge himself claims that
he did not give his opinion, and if he
had it would have been in favor of the
Negative. And even if this judge LOST
his right of deciding, it would have
fallen to the President to give the de-
Gliding vote, which he would have Civ.
en- in favor of the Negative. AS ]
undertook in that debate to advocate
the cause of Woman's Rights, I dc
not propose to LET "Inferior," Of
any other one of the beaten Afirma
tive, uhjustIy claim the victory, and
we say nothing.
AS for the Capital Punishment
question, ''Inferior" forgot to say thai
the Affirmative gained the question
We have discussed several other qUes
tions which "Inferior" neglected t.
mention, among which are the follow
ing:
Resolved, That War is a greater ca
Iamity than Intemperance. Affirmed
by D. S. Ferguson and Robert Jack
son, denied by Prof. L. S. Wright anC
E. Newby. Decided in favor of AT
frmative.
Resolved, That the Roman Catholic
religion should be prohibited in the
United States. Affirmed by E. New
by, Prof. Joseph BeaIs, Mr.. Burgess:
and D. S. Ferguson; denied by L. S
Wright, H. Murdoch, E. Beals ant
VIM. Wright. Decision in favor o.
Affirmative.
Resolved, That Secret Societies
should be prohibited by law in the
United States. Affirmed by L. S
Wright, E. Newby and Benjamin
Barrett; denied by D. S. Ferguson, H
Murdock and J. NJ. Hughey. Decid
ed in favor of Negative.
We should not forget our worthy
President, Noah Buntain, who has al
ways presided with dignity and en-
deavored to do justice, by appointing
for judges, men of good judgment and
sense.
AS most of our members are farm
ers, I fear we shall soon have to sus'
pend our Lyceum, which I will bt
10th to do, for I, for one, can say i
has been a source of great benefit as
well as pleasure to me.
The prospect for plenty of fruit, il
this vicinity, is good.
j Wheat looks very well, and if every
thing is favorable we will have an av
erage crop.
The farmers are improving the time
this fine weather, and if the weather
continues favorable, will soon bt
ready for planting. Yours,

General Sheridan has received a
communication in the form of a petit
ton from several hundred citizens of
Wyoming Territory, relative to the
Indian difficulties and Outrages in that
region. They heartily approve the
Indian policy pursued by Sheridan,
and endorse Colonel Baker. They
represent that the white settlers are
constantly suffering from unprOvoked
assaults by Indians, and ask for suffi-
cient force under Baker, or some one
like him, to afford them protection.

The income tax lists hereafter, by late
order of Mr.. Delano, will be kept out of
the newspapers. Young bachelors look
ing for an eligible match will thus be pre-
vented from finding out how much the
fathers of eligible young ladies are worth,
and young spinsters engaged in the same
Iaudable pursuit will find similar difficult
ties thrown in their way. And those in
dividuals who lived on the prestige of a
huge figure in the list opposite their
names, and paid heavy taxes for the priv
ilege of being thought rich, will find them
selves deprived of that deceptive glory.

Free schools in 81. Louis.

GSSAAgSAS AZ ECGe AASNAASe
In st. Louis, yielding to the demands of
the Roman Catholics, the Bible, "appro-
PIRATE singing" and all religious inculca-
ton, have for good while been excluded
from the public schools. The children of
Roman Catholics, it is hardly necessary to
add, were just as strictly withheld from at
tending the schools as before. This con-
cession merely led the way to demand
for the division of the school fund. This
issue was directly presented in the cleo
tion there on Tuesday before last. What
came of it is thus told by the st. Louis
Democrat:
The friends of the public schools have
prevailed, and by very decided major
ity. With nine Democrats holding over,
and only five Radicals, it seemed some
what uncertain whether we should carry
the wards necessary to put the School
Board beyond doubt. But of the Demo-
Gratis, at least two could be relied upon to
resist to the end any attempt to divide the
school money, or cripple the system by cut
ting down its revenue. As we write, it
appears that the Radicals have elected two
members in the First Ward, one each in
the Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth and Elev-
enth, and by only three majority, another
in the Twelfth, making thirteen in all, a
majority of the Board.
The utmost efforts were made to defeat
the Radical candidates. In some wards
split tickets were put out, and in others
independent candidates were run on pur-
pose to break the Radical majority. But
the victory is complete. 1t shows that the
people of st. Louis are firmly attached to
the system of common schools, and that
they have the will and the power at any
time to crush any attempt that may be
made 10 break up that system or impair
its efficiency.
