What Protectlpn is DOING.

Says the London Times: At this mo-
ment Birmingham is losing its old mar
let. A few years ago it used to supply
the United States largely with edged
tools, farm implements and various
smaller wares. It does so no longer, nor
is the cause to be sought merely in the
American tariff. It is found that their
manufacturers supersede Us not only in
their own but in foreign markets and in
our own colonies, and the Birmingham
Chamber has the sagacity to discover and
the courage to declare that it is owing to
the superiority Of American goods
High as are the wages of an English
artisan, those of an American artisan
are higher still, and yet the mauufactur-
ers Of the United States can import iron
and steel from this country at heavy
duty, work up the metal by highly-paid
labor, and beat US out of the market
after all with the manufactured articles.
How is that to be explained? The
Americans succeeded in suppIanting US
by novelty of construction and excel
lence Of make. They do not attempt to
undersen US in the mere matter of price.
Our goods may still be the cheapest, but
they are no longer the best, and in the
country where an axe, for instance, is
an indispensable implement, the best
article is the cheapest, whatever it may
cost. Settlers and emigrants soon find
this out, and they have found it out to
the prejudice of Birmingham.

HOWDrunkenness is Producefi.

How WDrunkenness is Produced.
A sudden mental emotion car
send too much bIood to the Brain
or too great mental excitement doe:
the same thing. It is the essential
nature of all wines and spirits to
send an increased amount of blood
to the brain. ,''..''''..
The first effect of taking a glass. OF
wine or stronger form of alcohol is
to send the blood there faster than
common hence it quickens the cir
culatiOn that gives a red face; it
increases the activity of the brain,
and it works fasterrand SO does the
tongue. But as the blood goes to
the brain faster than common, it re-
turns faster, and no special perma-
nent harm results. But supposing a
man keeps on drinking, the blood is
sent to the brain so much faster, in
such large quantities, that in order
to make room for it the arteries
have to enlarge themselves; they
increase in size, and in doing so
press against the more yielding fac
cid veins, which carry the blood
from the brain, and thus diminish
their size, their bores the result be-
ing, the blood is not only carried to
the arteries of the brain faster than
is natural or heaIthful, but is pre-
vented from leaving it as fast as
usual ; hence a double set of causes
Of death are set in operation. Hence
a man may drink enough brandy or
other spirit in few hours or even
minutes to bring on fatal attack
Of apOplexy; this is literally being
dead drunk.-[Hall's Journal of

Grains Of Gold.

The three great eonquerOrs Of the
world are Fashion, Love and Death.
Let your expenses be such as to
leave u balance in your pocket
Ready money is a friend in need.
Hearts may be attracted by as
sumed qualities but the affections
are only to be fixed by those that
are real.
Benefit your friends that thew
may love you still more dearly;
benefit your enemies that they may
become your friends.
SMILES AND FRoWNs.-It is al.
ways in our power to make a friend
BY smiles what folly, then, to
make an enemy by frowns.
FATE AND NECEss1Tr.-We can
not conquer fate and necessity; yet
we can yield to them in such a man
ner as to be greater than if we
could.
KEEP AWAY FROM BAD HABITS.
No person ever got stung by hOr-
nets who kept away from where
they were. Tt is just so with bad
habits.
PRAY SIMPLY.-God loves to have
US pray with earnest simplicity
Better in Gods sight are the broken
and heartfelt utterances of a child
than the high flown utterances of
some who think themselves wonder
ful in prayer.

The Imperial Family.

A gentleman recently returned
from Europe, where he has been
intimate with the social relations OF
the French imperial family, reports
that Napoleon believes in his early
restoration to the French Govern
ment. Theirs is regarded as a mere
makeshift, and that his (Napoleon's)
death at this time would be follow
ed by another civil war. Gambetta
is looked upon as an ambitious, in
triguing, able man. Bazaine waits
for history to justify. LIE Boeuf is
o "wretched creature" The EN-
press is well, and intends to send
the Prince Imperial on a tour
through the United States when he
is little older. The imperial fam.
lily receive the attentions of the
royal family and nobility of Eng
land. There are now two parties
in France, the Imperialists and the
Red Republicans. The Bourbons
are "nowhere." European diplo-
matists abroad favor Napoleon's re-
turn, believing that his restoration
would keep in subsection the disor-
derly elements of the French, which
are now a constant menace in Eu-
rope.

Fresh Flowers in Ice.

A curious and beautiful effect was
produced by one of the ice-making
machines built lately in Philadel-
phia. This was a cake of manu-
factured ice, in the center of which,
completely inclOsed by the translu.
cent material, was bouquet of fresh
flowers. Every leaf and flower was
perfectly visible the brilliancy of
the cOlOrs being enhanced by the re-
fraction through the ice. This spe.
cimen Of Summer entombed by the
Winter, was produced by the bare
ammonia process, a French inven-
ton, under which these machines
are operated.

German schOOImaster's Duties.

German SchOOlmaSter'S Duties,
A teacher in Germany has to pos
sess much more versatile abilities
than in this country, nearly com.
plete as is our system of education
In addition to his knowledge of the
elementary branches, he has to be
able to pass examination in music
after the following manner: He
must understand the theory, origin,
composition and definition of chords;
must be able to transcribe a choral
correctly; render a statement of the
principles which govern difficult
consecutive chords have a knowl-
edge of common transition from one
key to another; and also some
knowledge, however slight, of the
construction of organs.
1t also devolves upon him, in
singing, to be able to give the note
either in the major or minor key ;
he must sing a choral at sight, and
be able to lead a part in the singing.
His duties do not stop here; for in
organ playing; he must be able to
play an easy choral and voluntary
correctly. Thus you see a school
master in Germany is expected to be
a gentleman of very varied attain
ments.

nOmenOn. You have seen an apple
tree. Well, an apple tree is not a
phenomenon. But when you see
the cow go up the tree tail foremost,
to pick the apples, it is a phenome-
non."

It is a good thing to obey the law
of God, but it is a better thing to

life, the latter is to have a new
heart. A slave may obey master

loves the laws of a father.

A eotemporary truly remarks that
there is as much connection between the
words and the thoughts as there is be-
tween the thoughts and actions. The
latter is only the expression of the form
er, but they have a power to react upon
the soul, snd leave the stain of corrup-
ton there. A young man who allows
himself to use one vulgar or profaDe
word, has not only shown that there is
a foul spot upon his mind, but by the
appearance ofthat word he extends that
spot, and infames it, till, by indulgence,
it will pollute and ruin the soul. Be
careful of your words as of your
thoughts.
If you can control the tongue so that
no improper words are pronounced by
it, you will soon be able to control the
mind and save it from corruption. You
extinguish the fire by smothering it, or
by preventing bad thoughts bursting
into language. Never utter word any
where which you would be ashamed to
speak in the presence of the most re-
fined female or most religious man.
Try this practice little while, and you
can soon have command of yourself.
