A SHORT SERMON FOR MY
STUDENTS.
To be Praticed and Preached.
BY II. c. EASTMAN, PoUGHKEEpsIE'


You are tho architects of your
own fortunes. Rely upon your own
strength of body and soul. Take
for your star, industry, selfreliancc,
faith and honesty; and inscribe on
your banner, LUCK is fool, PLUCK
is hero. Don't take too much
advice; keep at the helm and steer
your Own ship, and semember that
the great art of commanding is to
take a fair share of the work. Don't
practice too much humility; think
we'll of yourself-strike out-as-
sumo your position. Put potatoes
i'll a cart over a rough road, and
SMALL potatoes 60 to the bottom.
Rise above the envious and jealous.
Fire above the mark you intend to
hit. Energy, invincible determine
ton, with right motive, are the
levers that move the world. Don't
drink. Don't chew. Don't smoke.
Don't swear. Don'tdcccive. Don't
read novels. Be in earnest. BE
self-reliant. Be generous. Be
civil Read the papers. Adrernse
yo,u business. Keep your own coun-
sells, and superintend your own bu-
siness. Make money and do good
with it. Love your God and fell
bowman. Love truth and virtue.
Love your country and obey the
laws.
Depend upon it, the GREAT WANT
of this age is MEN. MEN who are
not for sale. MEN who are honest,
sound from centre to circumference
true to the hearts core. MEN
who will condemn wrong in friend
or foe; in themselves as we'll as
others. MEN whose consciences
are as steady as the needle to the
pole. MEN who will stand for the
right if the heavens totter and the
earth reels. MEN who can tell the
truth and look the world and the
devil right in the eye. MEN that
neither flag nor finch. MEN in
whom the courage of everlasting
life runs STILL. deep, and strong.
MEN who will not fail nor be dis
couraged till judgement be set in
the earth. MEN who know tlcir
places and fill them. MEN who
know their message and tell it.
MEN who mind their own business.
MEN who will not lie. Men who
are not too lazy to work, nor too
proud to be poor. MEN who are
willing to eat what they have earn
ed, and wear what they have paid
for.

THE FAILURE OF THE CUBAN Rev

has been on the side Of Cuba, writes

The Georgia Legislature.

The news from Atlanta from our
special correspondent is unfavorable.
Bullock and Terry are working to-
gether in the interest of the conspir-
acy to piunder the State and rob the
people of their rights. The strong
arm of the Military Satrap is thrust
in to wrcst tho control Of the organi-
zation of the House from the Demo
Gratis and Conservative Republicans.
Both houses have been adjourned
until Monday. In the meantime Ter
ry is to appoint Radical Commission
to inquire into the eligibility of Dem
ocratic members. AS the House
stands now the Radicals are in the
minority. But Terry intend to change
its status by declaring a sufficient
number of Conservatives ineligible.
This will give the Radicals working
majority in both Houses. Tho pros
pect looks gloomy. Bribery, fraud
and brute force are in the ascendency
for the present at least, and Bullock,
backed by Terry and the Radical
Congress, is in a fair way of succeed
ing in his work of infamy. The
Democrats and the Republicans op-
posed to Bullock's pluLdering schemes
are working with the courage and
energy inspired by a just and noble
sense of honor and duty to save the
State from ruin and anarchy.-Ch,on-

PRESERVATION OF LEATHER.-Tho
following valuable hints in regard to
the preservation Of leather we copv
from tho Shoe and Leather Reporter:
The extreme heat to which most
men and women expose boots and
shoes during winter dcprives leather
of'its vitality, rendering it liable to
break and crack. When leather be-
comes so warm as to give off tho
smell of leather, it is signed. Close
rubber shoes destroy the life of leath-
er. All varnishcs and blacking con-
tanning the properties of varnish,
should be avoided.
Shoe leather is greatly abused.
Persons know nothing or care less
about the kind of material used than
they do about the polish produced.
Vitriol blacking is used until every
particle of oil in the leather is DESTROY
ed. To remedy this abuse, the leath-
er should be washed once a month
with warm water; and when about
half dry, a coat of oil and tallow
should be applied and the boots set
aside for day Or two. This will re-
new the elasticity and life in the
leather, and when thus used, upper
leather will seldom crack or break.
Don't wash harness I'M water and
with soap. No harness is ever So
soiled that a damp sponge will not
remove the dirt. When harness
loses its lustre and turns brown, which
almost any leather will do after long
exposure to tho air, the harness should
be given now coat of grain black.
Before using this grain-black, the
grain surface should be thoroughly
washed with potash water until all
tho grease is killed, and, after tho
application of the grain-black, oil and
tallow should be applied to the sur
face. This will not only 'sfasten tho
color" but make the leather flexible.
Harness which is grained can. DO
cleaned with kerosine, or spirits. OR
turpentine, and no harm will result if
the parts affected are washed and
oiled Immediately a1terward. ..,,, g.;

is now driven out. Of cvcry strong
hold which few months ago it pos
sessed. 1t holds not single town on
the island, and is compelled to conGne
itself to attacks upon the Spaniards
along the narrow roads and bridle-
paths. Further than this, intercept
ted letters show that tho Junta itself
is badly domoralized and distracted
ny internal dissentions, which cause
all its expensive efforts to aid the pa
trIots't to eventuate in failures and dis
asters."

VIRGINIA.

WASHINGTON, January 17-2 P.
M.-The Senate received the House
Virginia bill last night. Trumbull
said, were tho Senate full, he would
move that the Senate bill be laid
aside and the House bill taken up.
The regulations of the Senate for
bade definite action, and tho SEN
ate resumed the consideration of
its own bill. Stewart hoped Vir-
ginia would rot be fettercd with
new conditions. Should Virginia
again raise the standard of rebel
lion, he would be the first to favor
vigorous measures but what is the
use of legislation, from fear of what
may be considered impossibilities.
Drake could not understand how
the Republican Senator'S had chan
ged front; neither could the coun-
try understand it. Carpenter wan
ted to know what could be done
with Virginia, if she violated the
conditions proposed. Drake said
''sufficient for the day is the evil
thereof: Carpenter responded, now
is the day for consideration. brakes
proposition was evil Carpenter
would have kept the Southern
States under pupilage, if it took
five years; but when they did come
back, he wanted them back as use
ful members in'the family of States.
lie wanted Virginia to come with
the same rights. Carpenter asked
has Congress the right to force
constitution on Virginia? Sumner
responded, unquestionably. Nor
ton maintained the right of Con-
gress to impose any condition ;
many Senators, he said, believed
that if Virginia was admitted un.
fettered, loyal men would be com.
PEELED to leave the State, and ter,
roism would follow. IF Virginia
follows the lead of Tennessee and
Georgia, Senators must meet the
storm Of indignation from their con.
stitucnts. Howo favored the exac-
ton of conditions. Schurz said
brakes grip policy would prove a
curse. Warner favored universal,
amnesty, whereby, he believed, the
Republicans could carry the South,
and instanced the case of Long
street, whose forgiveness, appoint
ment and confirmation, and could
assure Warner that the people of
the South would show no libcrality.
Cameron asserted that no Southern
Senator now on the floor would be
reelected.
There is much doubt on the
streets and at the taverns, as to the
ultimate results. Early admission
is regarded certain, bnt the best
opinion is that the conditions to be
imposed will most probably be
those exacted by the fourteenth
amendment, both as Legislators and
officers.

Never be idle. If your hands cannot

look him in the face. Good company

by your own acts. If any one speaks
evil of you, lot your life be 50 20 one

Intoxicating liquors. Ever live (mis-

WELL BURNED ON CHERRY RUN.-Or
tuesday night the producing well owned
by Fl. Camp and Camp & Co., located on
Cherry Run near Housewife, took fire
through the carelessness Of the engineer,
and both were destroyed. The property
destroyed consisted Of two engines, one
large boiler, engine house, one derrick and
rig complete, one tank containing so or 90
bbls of oil. When the. tank burst, the
burning oil ran down to another well on
the adjoining lease, setting fire to that
and destroying tank, derrick, engine, rig,
etc. The disaster shuts down five good
producing wells. The engineer of tho
Camp wells is said to have been fast
asleep.-Herald.
