A LAZY MAN.-Ths lazy man is nearly
always good-natured. He never flies into
a passion. He might crawl into one, il
that we're possible, but the idea OF his
flying into anything is preposterous.
Who ever heard Of a lazy man break
ing into bank, where crowbar had to
be used, or drilling into a safe? Nobody
Not that he might not covet his neigh
boris goods therein contained, but his
horror of handling crowbars and drills,
would always deter him from actually
committing burglary. He never runs
away with his neighbor's wife, simply on
account Of the horror he has of running.
II he is ever known to run it is-run to
seed.
He rarely lies about his neighbors, for
it would be too much exertion, but he
can lie about bar-room all day.
He is OF insstimaSle service to billiard
saloon, keeping the chairs warm aud
watching the game, for few would caro-
TO play were there no spectators. The
fact that he does this without pay, day in
and day out, shows the unselfshness of
his nature. What an industrious man,
who considers his time worth something,
would went pay for, the lazy man gen.
orally does for nothing, showing free
dom, from mercenary motives, that
should 60 far to his credit. ..
The lazy man never gets up revolu-
tions, instructions, or other popular
exctements, and don't make nuisance
of himself by tramping around the coun-
try making incendiary speeches to pro-
mote public discomfort.
In his own neighborhood he is never
a busy-body in other peoples affairs. for
the very idea Of being a busy.body at
anything would drive him out of his
head. By the way. if he ever got out OF
his head, you would have to drive him
out, for he wouldn't have the energy to
go out of his own accord.
No lazy man ever ran mad. II he
went crazy it was because he couldn't
go anywhere else without walking.
Lazy men don't disturb the quiet OF
peaceful neighbors by putting up facto-
ries, furnaces and such denominations.
Finally, lazy men don't got up base
ball clubs, which, if nothing else could
be said in their favor, ought, in these
days Of excessive base -bawling. to entitle
them to public gratitude.

derstand the work is commenced, and that
a separate chapter Of it is to be laid on

TIE ENGLISH IRON INTEREST.

The news which comes to us frsm the
slight uneasiness on the part of England as
touching one of her greatest material in
dustries-her iron manufactures. The
feeling is becoming general among the
British iron men that the time is not far
distant when the failure in her home sup
plies of iron ore will pass the scepter of her
greatness, as an iron producing country,
to the United States. Some of her most
productive mining districts, as worked
heretofore, are already failing in
their supplies Of ore. 1t is true that
the Cumberland carboniferous ores, as
well as some of the Lancashire, still yield
in considerable fnllness and richness, and
that the Bessemer process has impaired to
them new value, greatly enhancing their
price but the entire product of these
mines has been already contracted for, at
least two years in advance, and no adj
dltional demand can be met before 1875.
This renders the position of England,
standing as she has at the head of the IRON
producing interest of the world up to this
time, as not little precarious in the opin-
ion of her more sagacious and far-seeing
,ealers in manufactured iron and STEEL
They see that her supply of raw material
is seriously threatened with failure, and
, that at no distant day. But while this is
the condition of Great Britain, the great
iron-producing Republic of America is
looming up in the relative scale of prosperi-
ty, and our career onward is thoroughly
assured, if the government is not miserably
turned aside from its true policy of pro-
lection to this interest. The fact that un-
,, der this policy, so benelicenty felt by our
people, our iron manufactures have
advanced in the last ten years
one hundred per cent. upon the pre-
! vious decade, while those of England have
advanced only some forty per cent, is
most potential one against any change ii
the iron-protecting policy Of the govern
ment. There is wealth enough in thu
mineral deposits of Virginia alone--thos'
!, scarcely as yet touched-to make fort.
II English Manchesters for us in the mex
D twenty years. There is, in fact, no end t.
IL the possibilities of greatness and powe
i that lie cooped up in our iron mountains Ii
y Virginia. All that is wanted to bring then
. out into such grand developments as Eng
: fish Manchesters, is for the government
: to adhere to a true American policy i
regard to our iron interests. and not be le
" away by the miserable sophistrias of Eng
lish free-trade.

The State election in New Hampshire
comes off on the 18th of March, and may
be considered the opening of the political
campaign of 1872. The election will be
for Governor, members of the Legisla-
ture, and other State officers. Both par
ties are making an earnest and vigorous
fight, but it is hardly probable that tho
Democrats will succeed in breaking
through the firm and unwayerlng columns
of the Republicans.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

The WoNAs's JoURNAL.-The friends OF woman
suffrage, who wish to keep the issue clear from
entangling alliances with other reforms and the
endless host of individual whims and yagaries-
who would pursue it with the same sngleness OF
aim that marks the movement in England, and
the temperance and other special reforms in this
country, have established a weekly paper, the
Womdn's Journal, published in Boston and Chi
cago, and edited by Mrs. Livermore, Mrs Lucy
Stone, Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, Mr.. VIM. Lloyd
Garrison and Mr.. T. w. Higginson, assisted by
accomplished friends of the cause. The Wo'
mans Journal is a fair and attractive paper IN
articles, and the dignity, self-respect, good
hulnor, and earnestness of its tone, will show
how profoundly mistaken are those who suppose
that folly and extravaganee are necessarily char
acteristic of the discussion of the question. The
Journal is indispensable to those who wouie
truly understand the character of the movement
and measure its progress.-Harper's Hee6fy.
