"a A GOVERNMENT scandal has arisen
in England, growing out of the
fact that the Government has over
drawn the account Of the Court of
Chancery at the Bank of England
to the extent of $500, rendering it
necessary for that establishment to
apprise them of the fact. The Lon
don Times grows indignant over the
fact that the Gov ernment was thus
caught mapping, and tiIunders away
as follows: 'sThe carelessness in
dlcated is such as would be consid-
cred altogether inexcusable In any
city counting-house, and still
worse feature consists in the reek-
lessness of management and the de-
ficiency of official loyalty which
upon the private notice Of such a
lapse having been received by the
Government could lead to the folly
OF its being at once proclaimed, and
thus inevitably made a matter OF
public comment

evident that no Government efforts
will avail without the active co-opera-

teen millions already paid out in tbs
purchase Of the government indebted
ness, and the withdrawal of their large
deposits from the Treasury, the banks
are now strong enough to ado It lib

generous system Of discounts to sus-

the forty-four millions OF reserve will
be considered as money in the Treas

LUCKY .MEN.-Thhre are thousands
Of persons who believe in luck. They
arc generally unfortunate themselves
or, as they call it, unlucky.a They
feel themselves sinking and see their
neighbors rising all through luck
They were born unlucky and believe
ing this, they. make no particular
effort stem, the tide which sets aga;Ist
them, and so2drift into hopeless fail
ure. aTheyIws5cn the successful men
see what this mythical Goddess Of
Fortune bestows upon him, but fail to
note the amount Of LABOR which he
renders to secure the golden blessings
Of the goddess Success to their eyes
is nothing but luck, Energy, ambi-
ton, resolution, are worthless, unless
the lucky star shines upon their pos
SCISSOR. If these ia er dreamers would
seek for the true cause Of success,
they would find it in hard cork, patti
ent application, steady, uncompro-
missing labor. There is no such thing
as luck. A happy com bination Of
stances, brought about nine
times out of ten by man own in
dustry, is too often mistaken for good
luck. Some men grow rich; every
thing they touch seems to tnrn into
gold; but if we watch these men
closely we shall find that it needs
more than touch to secure gold.
We shall find them to be, as a Gloss,
men Of Of good judgement, sagaoious,
untlling in their iaborers, success by
the persistency with which they fol-
low it up Wealth never comes to the
idler. Misdirected energy may fail to
secure it, but if it comes at all
it lpust be deserved or won by some
special effort. 1.-THE young manajust
facing the world desires to be success
ful, he must make up his mind that he
is master Of his own fortune that
good luck is nothing more than the
results Of his own abor, the natural
reward of honest patient toll Ex-
anime the lives OF successful men and
not drone can be found among them.
They won success because they deser-
we'd it, and deserved it Eecaus the
worked hard to obtained it.

New YORK. Oct. G.
Ats o'clock this morning the Graphic

country, set out for Europe FROM the
Capitoline grounds, Brooklyn. The
balloon holds 26a,0OO cubic feet of
gass, but was inflated with only 300

all the necessary scientific instru-
Ements, food and clothing. At the hour
for starting the air yoyagers were en-
thuastic, and axions to get away on
their journey. Mr. Donaldson was
especially eager. He expressed him

reach Europe would be successful !;

it more likely that the drift of the
huge air craft would land them in

confidence in the balloon. The advice of
the best aeronauts in the country Ia d

believed it could not fail him. in his

interviews, purporting to have taken

THE SORT OF MEN THAT WOMEN
LIKE BEST.

We know that men naturally shrink
from the attempt to obtain companions
who are their supcriors; but they will
find that really intelligent women who
possess the most desirable qualities arc
uniformly modest, and hold their
charms in modest estimation. What
such women most admire in men is
gaIfantry; not the gaIIantry Of courts
and fOps, but boldncss, courage, dcvO-
ton and refined civility. a mans

where bis boots and brains win one.
If IL man stand before II woman with
respect for himself and Gcarfcs5ncSs Of
her, his suit IS half won. The rest may
safely be left to the parties most inter
cstcd. Therefore, never be afraid Of
Il woman. Women are the most harm
less and agreeable creatures in the
world to n man who shows that nc has
got n mans soul in him. If you have
not got tho spirit to come up to n test

imagine that any disappointment in
in love which takes place before you
are twcnty-onc years old will be of any
material damage to you. The truth
is, that before a man is twenty-five
years old he docs not know what he

VACCINATION..-lTS DANGERS, AND
ITS TRUE CHARACTER.

a subscriber to the Springfield Re-
publican, who is also physician OF
some twenty years practice in adjoin-
ing State, sends lis briefly his views of
the dangers incident to vaccination,
and their cause, in Il noto which we
print below, and which is worth the
reading by everybody who either vac
cinates or is northumberland is to say,
of nincty-ninc persons in every hum
dred. 1t is impossible to be too care
full in II matter so delicate and impor-
tant as propagating disease, even If
tho disease be protective one:
| AS practiccd, vaccination is attended
with danger, both to life aud to health,
and the reasons for this arc probably
these three:
1. The use Of "crusts." 4 crust is
the scab of II sore, and is necessarily
composed Of dried vaccine lymph
| (most1y in Il pustuTar statc) in small
quantity, tho intlamcd and diseased
intcgument in state OF decomposition,
and dried puns, also in u state of par
tinl decomposition. Tho deaths at
Wcstford a few years ago were from II
crust dissolved in water. Probably
tho two deaths reported II fcw days ago
at Falmouth wercfrom the use of crusts.
Every physician (almosD has seen
&<tsSo Va Sttesy D."
really, instead Of cow-poX) from tho
the>usc of crusts. Lot everybody re-
member that a vaccine crust is tho par
TALLY rotten scab of II filthy soro, and
is II very dangerous and Indecent kind
OF medicine.
2. The use of II dirty lancet or vac
cinatOr. Every instrument used should
be at once cleansed by boiling water and
fire. Wash Off all the adhcrcnt blood,
&C., immediately, and dry the instru-
ment by heat above the boiling point.
This is not commonly done, and, with
some of the complicated instruments,
never. Hence arise eases OF crysipclas,
and probably death. l have under my
caro- II man, healthy before vaccination
i'll December, who has bccn sick with
pyemia for six weeks. This is Il case
Of blood poison from the usc, probably,
Of n dirty knife.
3. The use of vaccine matter taken
too late from the vnccinatcd person.
Vaccine matter generally becomes n
blood poison by the ninth or tenth day
after vaccination. 1t should be taken
on the seventh or eighth day, when it
is as clear as water, and used immcGi-
ately, if possible. Every days keep
ing of such matter, on points or quilts,
renders the lymph liable to become
q blood poison.
These three dangers of vaccination
imply some ignorance or fault on the
part of the vaccinator. On tho part
Of the vrrcinatcd the dangers are most
ly mechanical. Tho vaccine vcsicIc
is rupturcd or irritalc,! :" some way,
and inflammation takes place. But .te
danger from this is small compared to
the introduction of II blood poison by
the vnccinatOr.
