HORACE GREELEY presents the following
as sure means of destroying the prosperity
Of the most promising town. There can be
no doubt of its efficacy: If you wish to keep
il town from thriving. don't put up any more
buildings than you can conveniently occupy
yourselves. 1t you should accidently have
an empty dwelling. and any one should want
to rent it. ask three times the actual value of
III. Demand a Shylnck price for every spot
Of land that God has given your stewardship
over Turn acold shoulder TO every me-
ehanic or business man seeking a home
among you. Look at every new conner with
Il scowl. Run down the work of every new
workman. 10 abroad for wares rather than
deal with those who seek TO do business in
your midst. Fail to advertise or IN any other
way to support your paper, 50 people abroad
may not know whether any business issoing
oil iii your town or not. Wrap yourselves
mp within yourselves. and cover yourselves
wirh coat ut inparvious selfishfess. There
is M more effpctual way to rptard the grow til
OF ii town than by actions like those enumer-
ated. and there are people IN every town who
are pursuing the above course every lay Of
their lives. and to whom the above remarks
arr. most respectfully offered for their careful
attention.

There IS far too much negligence every
where about the payment Of small sums
Of money, It not ttnfreqnently happens that
men will have 4 small amount charged when
they i,aye money sufficient in their pockets
to az 1t, md subject creditor to the
tro sihie Of sending it for collection when he
needs It. taking the chance Of learning that
the creditor Il away from his place Of busi-
ness or from homo, and subject him to the
impntation Of being in q needless hurry for
payne y
More attention {, this point, and especially
BY those to whom the time Of payment is
Eimmaterial. who can pa it st one time as
well ~ another, would be d vast improves
ment upon the present mode Of many per
sons in doing business.
The prompt payment Of small bills is q
matter OF much more Importance than il
generally attached 10 Il. There are not a few
who, in times when business has been q little
depressed. and the prospects for the future
seemed more than usually unsettled, will
hold on to their cash IN hand, and tell all the
collectors who wait upon them with Overdue
bills to 'scall again. while the payment
would not cause them any sacriticeor incon-
venience, and would greatly accommodate q
large and deserving class OF creditors.
Indeed, we know Of nothing thatin quiet
way would 60 50 far TO give life to the mark
cts throughout the country as the universal
payment of these obligations at the first OPP
portunity. If All these little debts, for the
discharge Of which the debtors now have the
cash 10 hand, were paid at once, the wheels
of bushes would he fabricated, and ssgen-
eral joliity'' soon prevails throughout tue
land. TIE FIRST serious effect Of any public
excitement comes from the sudden check of
these little streams. 1t is true that large
transactions are arrested. but if everybody
went to paying these little debts the cheek.
would be bit nlomentary, as business would
be forced along by the current thus coltin-
,lally renewed. Let every one whose eye
falls OH these lines p y out his ready money
for bills he knows to be due, and stop not
until his pocket be emptieil. Probably be-
fore this is realized the return current will
reach his pocket too. and he will be able to
fulfill all his obligations; there is as much
money as ever. Who stops its flow? Let 1t
move on by q prompt payment OF all bills
nov due. and new business will catch the i'll
spiraion and start off upon q fresh gallop.-
