A New YORK statistician lately under
took to prove that the expectation of
life was greater in women than men. We
find confederation of his figures in late
ly issued report Of the Registrar General
for Scotland. This document is based on
the returns for 1868, aud shows that at
every year of life, except during the
fourth year and between ten and fifteen
years of age, the mortality among males
was greater than that among females
During the FIRST year of existence, out of
every 1000 of each sex, there were 157
boys to $50 girls who died. From twenty
to thirty years of age the deaths among
males was 036 against Sal of that
among females from forty to fifty years
of age, 1868 men died, and only IL 20
women out of every thousand. The year.
ly average Of births was los boys to every
100 girls.

MARK Twain, says the Atlanta Mesc
Era, has already made six thousand dol
lars by his burlesque autobiography. This
in itself is well enough. But the fact leads
to train ofthought anything but flattering
to the popular taste. This literary jester
can, at any time, put on his cap, jingle his
bells, and everything he touches is turned
into gold. 1t beats the magician's 'pres-
to p And all this is the reward of frivol-
ity. There are to be found, to-day, in
Europe and America, hundreds of accom-
plished scholars, deep thinkers and elegant
writers, who Tot only cannot make six
Thousand dollars by work of solid merit,
but cannot, in many instances, get it pub
lished But such has always been the
case. Straws float on the surface while
men are drowning.

A SAD DEATH-Rev. Solomon Collins,
working at the Plaster Banks at Saltville
Va, was scalded to death on Saturday last
The particulars are about as follows: The
plaster is drawn from the pit by steam
engine and train; and upon the occasion
referred to, when tho train had nearly
reached tho top Of the grade, large rock
or piece of plaster fell upon beam to
which the elevating rope was attached,
breaking the beam and preci pitating the
cars downwards, the rope catching Mr..
Collins in its coils and carrying him
through the gable of the enginc-house and
precipitating him into cistern of boiling
water. The sad event occurred about IL

A LONG article in one of the New York
city napers on the subject of rich mems
committing suicide so much, shows conclu-
sively that if a wealthy man does not give
away let of money, he is almost sure to
cut his throat sooner or later. If any rich
man feels as though there is danger of bis
committing suicide, and he wants to keep on
living, all he has got to do is to send
some of us a check for hundred thousand
or so, and be saved. Office hours from 10

How TO MAKE A PLACE PRospERous-

How TO MAKE PLACE PRosPERoUS,-
There can hardly be greater sign of pro, =
perity in community than disposition

neighbours heels get stuck in the mud.
/ knew of place where a mans barn
with all its winter stores of grain and hay
was consumed in the night. Immediately
all the men of the county side mustered
and hauled up timbers for new barr,
and then big raising came off After that
the sound OF twenty or more hammers
was heard until the whole was shingled
and sided. But their deed of kindness
was not done yet one and another offered
to take a head or two of bis stock and
winter them for him, thus greatly reduc-
ing his loss, and assuring his heart of the
more durable riches of brothery love and
neighborly good will. No one can COM
pute in money the value of one such ex-
ample of noble liberality in community,
especially 10 its influence upon the young.
Where this spirit prevails there is sure to
be progress in place even if all the i'm
provements are in their infancy. People
will like to come and settle in a place
which bears such good name. Now If
your place is a growing, popular one, do
what you can to show yourself good
neighbor, especially to those who need a
little extra help.
If man starts tin shop or blacks
smith shop in your place, don't harness up
and drive off Eve miles to buy your pans
and get your horse shod, just because you
have been in the habit OF doing it. Pat
ronize the newcomer, when you want any,
thing done bis line. Speak encouragingy
to him, and well Of him to your neigh
boris. Little words of approval or censure
60 long away, and when once you have
spoken them, you cannot call them back.
Help the sick, especially if they are
poor, for poverty and illness are indeed a
heavy burden. Perform all acts of loving
charity which falls day by day in your
path, bering who it is that has said
"Ye shall in no wise lose your reward
