The Red River Trade-New Orleans De.
Tended.

The Alexandria Democrat says:
A great deal of excitement has been ere
ated in regard to our merchants and others
transferring most of their purchases from
New Orleans to St. Louis. The main cause.
Of course. was cheap prices. and under this
Authorization hundreds of &C. q. d. or
ders have been given to st. Louis packets.
They have been and are doing an immense
business: in fact. refusing freight trip after
trip. So far. so good. We have had moth
ing to say about the sudden change and, we
may say, prejudice against New Orleans
but have waited patiently the turn ofeventS
This turn has come Oh US sooner than looked

prices and accommodation. and every other
commercial and personal link that should
bind and endear us to New Orleans. Is
clearly in her favor. and after this. the Alex

love. and stick fast to it. AS an evidence OF
all this, merchants receiving corn. oats. hay.

FEMALE HEAITH.-Men prize
more than the fair sex are always
aware the health-beaming counten-
.nce, the elastic step, and all these
demonstrations of domestic order in
which unbroken activity delights.
They love to see a woman equal to
her own duties, and performing them
with pleasure. They do not like to
have the principal theme of domestic
conversation a detail of physical ills,
or to be expected to question like a
physician into the variety of sy:np-
toms which have supervened since
their departure. Or if this may oc-
casionally be done with good grace,
where ill-health is supposed to be
temporary, yet the saddening effects
of an enfeebled constitution cannot
always be resisted by him who ex-
pected to find in wife a "yoke fel-
Iow," able to endure the rough roads
and sharp ascents OF lie. A nature
possessing great capacities of sym
pathy and tenderness may doubtless
be softened by the exercise of those
capacities. Still, the good gained is
only from the patient, perhaps the
Christian endurance, Of a disappoint-
ment. But where those capacities do
not exist, and where religious princi-
pies are absent, the perpetual inAu-
ence of sickly and mournful wife is
blight on those prospects which al
lure to matrimony. Folly, morose-
ness, and lapses into vice may be

wait for them, if they fly lew at ev.
cry discharge of the foWler's gun
some fall, some are wounded. and
some, swerving sideways, plunge into

you will find that Immediately after
the first discharge of thesgan the
Aock rise and fly higher. Ahdat the
next discharge they rise again and
fly still higher. And not many times
has the plunging shot thinned their
number before they take SO high a
level that it is in vain that the fowler
aims at them, because they are above
the reach of his shot. When trouble
comes upon you, fly higher; and if
they will strike you, fly still higher.
And by and by you will rise so high
in the spiritual life, that your affec-
tions will be set on things So entirely
above, that these troubles shall not
be able to touch you. So long as the
shot strikes you. so long hear the
word of God saying to you, Rise

/; Stick TO- One Thing.

OuSGdUle.d do Md9e1T pAou oanIu.'to"l
excel, is the language of the Bible.
Whoever expects to succeed in any
undertaking, must enter into it with
a hearty and ernest will to do his
best. Whensa tradesor profession
is chosen, obstacles, be they large or
small, must not be allowed to stand
in the way O. mastering that trade or
profession.
However much we may deprecate
the oldtime custom of indenturing
apprentices, the system in its pract'-
cal results operated almost always
for the lasting good of the appren-
tice. Generally it insured to hlm a
good trade. and a wholesome disci-
pline that fitted him for success in
business.
At the present time, very many
young men. undertake to acquire a
tradsiand after a brief trialcabandon
it, because there are unpleasant du-
ties to be performed and obstacles to
be overcome. They consider them
selves accou Die to no one and go
and come At bidding Of caprlee,
or an unset ', uneasy mind. The
result of this is to send out into the
world young men who have not half
learned their trades, of unstable
character, who drift from pillar to
post, and who; succeediin nothing but
strolling along the highways of life
melancholy wrecks.
We would earnestly entreat every
young man, after he has chosen his
vocation, to stick to- it i don't leave It
because hard blows are to be struck
or disagreeable work performed. The
men, who have worked their way up,
to wealth and usefulness do not be-
long to the shiftless and unstable
class, but may be .reekoned among
those who took off their coats, rolled,
up their sleeves, conquered their
preiudices against labor, and man
fully bore the heat and burden of the!
day.
Whether upon the DID,. wosn7out
farm where our fathers toiled, dill.
gently striyirg to. bring back the soil
to productiveness; in the machine
shop or factory, or in the thousand
other business places that invite hon.
est toll and skill, let the motto ever
be: Perseverance and industry. The
baby training of the nursery was
good in its place, but it won't answer
all the demands of an active life. { {.
This is not a baby world. We
must expect to be jostled and knock
led about in stern conflict, and get
run over, if we are not on the look
| tout and be prepared to meet the du-
ties of life with a purpose not to
!shirk them, but to fulfill them. : .
|! A young man with good trade
or honorable profession, as he goes
forth iato the world with his mind
made up to stick to his trade or pro-
fession is not obliged to ask for ma
ny favors. He will hew his way to
success, while the unstable and shift
less will grow tired, despair and fan !.

The HUsBAND.-Ladies sometimes
do not value their husbands as.they
ought. They do not unfrequently
value good husband for the first
time when they feel the loss of him.
Yet the husband is the very roof-tree
OF the house, the corner stone of the
edi6ce, the keystone Of the arch call
ed home. He is the bread-yinner OF
the family, the defence and its glory.
the beginning and ending of the gol-
den chain which slrroundsit, its con-
sdler, its law-giver and its king And
vet we see how frail is that life on
which so much depends How frail
is the life Of a husband and father
When he is taken away, who shall
fill his place? When he is i'll, what
gloomy clouds hover over the house
When he is dead, what darkness,
weeping. agony Then poverty, like
the murderous assassin, breaks in at

How to get Plenty of Fresh Eggs.

In q long communication to the
Germantown Telegraph, upon tn
subject Of poultry, Mr.. E. Dwight, O.
Hudson. Michigan, considers the que,
ton, How to get plenty of good
favored fresh eggs with little troub-
!s," and thinks if there is any secret
IN it he has discovered it, and makes
the same public for the ben fit OF all
interested. He says:
"once, thirty years ago, was
troubled Just as my neighbor now is.
fed my hens plenty of corn and got
bat few eggs. reasoned upon the
matter, and happened to think that
the constituent parts of milk and the
white of eggs were much alike
Now, it has long been known to milk
men that wheat middlings and bran
are about the best of any feed to
rake a COW give milk; why no; then
the best to make hens lay eggs? |
:riea it, and since then have had 10
.onble. My mode of preparing, the
sa.l IS to mix about five parts of bran
With one of middlings. In the morn
iag wet up with water about four
quarts of the mixture in large tin
Dan. taking pains to have it rather
dry, though ali damp. This | set IN
a warm, sunny spot, south of their
shed, and they walk up, take a few
dips, don't seem to fancy it like corn
and start off on a short hunt for
something better, but always coming
around in n a short time for a few more
from the dish of bran. There is lit
lie time during the whole: day but ,,
chat one or more are standing by the
nan and Likewise hAlning themselves.
II am careful. ~ for them Just
as much as they will consume during
the day. At night, just before iI they
repair to the roost, I usually throw
them about a pint of shelled corn
we'll scattered, so that each one can
get a few kernels. If your hens
don't incline to eat this feed at flrst'
sprinkle little Indian meal on top.
I would like all who complain OF not t
getting eggs to try my plan, and l
think they will usyer be sorry
