Gus shades of drinking.
(Which is the most destructive to life,

be sober all the rest of the month, drink

Such man may do more business, do it
better, preserve better health and live
longer than the moderate driuker, who
never gets drunk, never vomits out the

WnAT 1T TAKES FOR AN EmToR.-A
good many people have literary aspira-
tions, and some old folks cherish most
lofty notions concerning the Emission" of
their promising offspring. Most people
have an idea that they were either cut
out for poet or an editor, aud yet most
people were not born for any such purpose.
Carleton, the poet, shows up the "requis'
tiles" for an editor in reply to an old FARM
er, who brought his son to the printing
office with view Of "makin an editor
outeu jim"
The editor sat in his sanctum, and look
ed the old man in the eye,
Then glared at the grinning young hope
tul, and mourufully made his reply,
lis your son small bound edition o
Moses and Solomon both?
Can he compass his spirit with meeknes
strangle natural oath
Can he leave all his wrongs to the future
and carry his heart in his cheek?
Can he do an hours work in minute
live on sixpence a week ?
Can he courteousy talk to au equal, ant
brow beat an impudent Ounce !?
Can he keep things in apple-pie order
and do half dozen at once ?
Can he press all the springs of knowledg
with quick and reliable touch ?
And be sure that he knows how much &
know, and knows how not to know to
much
Does he know how to strip up his virtue
and put check rein on his pride?
Can he carry genleman's manner With
rhinoceros' hide?
Can he know all, and do all, and be al
with cheerfulness, courage and vim e?
If SO, we perhaps eau be maxim an edit(
outen of him."

The MahOmct Of The West.

The Operlaad Monthly for September

which we make the following extracts:
The Norman who is faithful t. his obll-
cations delivers, each season at the tith-
lug house, one-tenth Of all the labor OF
his hands, the growth Of his acres, the re-
suit of his ventures, generally small or
the increase of his hocks and herds. No
system of taxation ever devised provides
fur exactiops SO enormous; and perhaps
no set of taxpayers on the earth submit
SO cheerfully aud meet their demands with
such scrupulous integrity and punctuality'
For twenty years, one-tenth of the
earnings of community now numbering
more than one hundred and twenty thous'
and souls, and averaging from an early
date in their organization here more than
half that number-has been poured into
the treasury Of the church, OF which brig

tising with his revolver at various objects
in the bar-room, An ox-teamster entered

whacker put his hand behind his back,
produced his pistol, levelled 1.-THE ruHians

to the floor, That scoundrel would have

-An old weather-beaten trapper was
sauntering along the main street OF one OF
our western Villages, on recent Sunday.
Passing in front ofa meeting-house, Tor a
moment he went in and took his seat
among the congregation. The preacher
was discoursing on the text Of The sheep
and the wolves" and had evidently beer
drawing contrast between the two sub
jects. Says he "We who assemble here
from week to week, TO do our duty. anc
perform our part are the sheep; now who
then are the wolves?" A pause, and ou

SWEET OH AS REMEDY FOR PolsoN.-
A plain farmer writes; at is now over
twenty years since l heard that sweet oil
would cure the bite Of rattlesnake, no,
knowing that it would cure other kinds OF
poison. Practice, observation and exper-
fence have taught me that it will cure
poisons OF any kind, both on man and
beast. The patient must take spoonful
of it internally and bathe the wound Tor a
cure. To cure horse it requires eight
times as much as for u man. One OF the
extreme cases of snake bites occurred
eleven years ago. 1t had been thirty day
standing, aud the patient had been giveT
up by his physician. | gave him spoon
full of the oil, which effected cure. l

other insects, and persons who have bee

john Randolph, vi Roanoke, had a
strong prejudice against the growing habit
Of disputing the Wills Of deceased persons,
aud he framed his own with great care,
So that il should not become the subject
of litigation after he was dead, In CO.
dici, to his last will, he used the following
characteristic language: "As lawyers aud
courts are extremely addicted to making
will, for dead men, which they never made
when living, 1t is my will and desire that
no person nc shal! set asiCe or attempt tC
set aside this will, shall ever ihherit
possess or enjoy any part Of my estate
real or personal" 1t is a somewhat curl
Gus commentary on these words Of Mr.
Randolph that few wills have ever beer
more warmly contested in the Virgins
courts and this very will, which, as h
supposed, he had so carefully guarde
against the interference Of 1.-THE lawyer
and the courts" was set aside as null an
void. because of his proved incOmpetenc
to make will at the date of execution
while former will was set up aud estal
lished as his true last will and testamen
although his signature was cut ont, bot
of the body of the will and of two codici
