Ouz4sks Black Hills expedition find paying g0ld diggings in abundance. In one of his dispatches the General says: '-GOld and silver are found in numerous places and in quantities so great that with pack and pan a single miner may take out &lO0 per day. The distance from Bis mAEck to the gold regions is about 25O miles. over a practicable route route. Citizens of Bismarck are greatly excited, and already expeditions are organizing" In . subsequent dispatch he reports that examinations at numerous points con- firm and strengthen the fact of the exist enoe of gold in the Black Hills. In some of the water courses, almost every painful of earth produced gold in small yet pay lng quantities.

satisfaction wherever introduced. They are made
of the BEST SCOTCH PIG METAL, with heav-
ier and thicker plate than any other Stove in tho
market, and consequently will the longer with
stand heat and hard usage. They are of hand
some pattern and neat finish, and warranted equal

pieces of ware and cooking utensils are furnished
with each Stove. An important consideration
sizes are never changed. Should piece get acci-
dentally broken at any time we can replace it at

"PRoGREss WITH PRUDENCE, Practice
WITH SCIENCE" advocate progressive
farming. Improvement is the order of the
day in all trades and professions, and the Ag-
riculturalist must keep abreast with the for
ward movement or he will fall hopelessly on
foot. But with progress, should always come
prudence. Hasten slowly-study carefully
the path before you, lest you make false steps
or 20 astray. All old ways are not bad, nor
are all new ways good. Look with good
deal of cautious scrutiny at any system OF cul-
tiyation in which the experience OF centuries
passes for nothing. If "a theorizer tell you-
you who have been planting cotton all your
life-that you know nothing about cotton
culture, but that your mode is wrong from
beginning to end, it is not worth while to lis.
ten to him but not less foolish is the talk OF
those who think, because they have been plant
ers all their lives, as their fathers were before
them, that there is nothing more to be learned
and no improvement to be made. SO, Science
is good analysis of soils are useful; geology,
vegetable physiology, entomology and mete-
orology have their bearing upon the planters
art, but neither of these, nor all Of these alone
will make man good farmer. Practice
must be combined with Science. Farming
must be learned in the field. Books and pa
pers help us in our lessons.-Rurat Carohnaan

REMEMBER.

There are some things that none of us should
forget. We should remember that we were
early cast upon Gods care. When we were
babes, frail and helpless, he watched over u.s.
For this we should be grateful. Many of us
should remember that we are the sons and
daughters of parents now in heaven. We
should remember that when we were young,
they pointed us to the Saviour. We should
remember the tender advice of these loving
parents. We should not forget that we have
been blessed with the means of grace, and the
offers of salvation all our lives. If we do not
embrace the Saviour, it will be more tolera-
BILE for the cities of Sodom and Gomorah,
than for us. We should remember that
every breath we breathe brings us nearer the
end of our earthly career, and step nearer
heaven or perdition. We should remember
that whatever man sows that will he also
reap. If we SOW to the flesh, we shall reap
corruption if we SOW to the Spirit, we shall
reap everlasting life. We should remember
that if we believe in Christ we will be saved,
and if we do not believe in him, we will be
lost for ever.

CHEERFULNESS.

If man had all the comforts of life, and
arrangements made by which an abundance
of every good thing would be secured to him
for the future, he ought to be cheerful. Such
a man, it seems, could rest easy amid all the
changing scenes of time. Such is the condi-
ton of all who trust in the Lord. God opens
his hand, and day by day, out of his mex
haustible fullness, supplies their wants. Come
what will, their daily bread is sure, and they
have an inheritance which is eternal. Like
its donor, it is from all mutation free. Why
do so many Christians 60 with their heads
down, and with hearts filled with grief? The
answer is easily given. They want faith.
They are not willing to trust their heavenly
Father. What a multitude Of cares can be
banished by faith. Faith, though small as
mustard SEED, removes mountains, opens wells
of salvation, and digs channels in which flow
rivers of pleasure. Faith turns night into
day, fills the heart with joy, wipes the tear
from the cheek, and banishes grief from the
soul.

ALMIGHTY.

One of the attributes of God is omnipotence
The Bible teaches this, and We see evidence
of it in every thing around us. The fact that
God rules the world is a source Of comfort
inestimably great. When the foundations
of society are destroyed, the Christian can
console himself with the fact that God reigns
Were it not for the fact that God sways a
sceptre of universal dominion, this world
would not stand long. There are multitudes
of men who would, if they could, destroy the
world, and all that is in it, in the twinkling Of
an eye. But fer the fact that God is AL
mighty, this world would be turned into an
abode of demons Were God not omnipotent
seedtime and harvest, summer and winter
cold and heat would soon cease to exist. The
earth would be converted into sterile plain
and the ocean into an bowling waste. The
wind and rain, uncontrolled, would storm with
tempestuous fury. The lightnings of heaven
would consume the world. What happy
thought that we can lie down and sleep, pro-
tected by an Almighty arm.

To KEEP EGGS FOR SErrING.-An Eng
lish agricultural paper says that eggs in
tended for setting should be stored with the
large end down, because the air bubble does
not spread so much as when the small end is
down-this spreading of the air-bubble being
known to affect the freshness and vitality Of
the egg. Eggs stored with the large end
down will Keep perfectly good for Matching
more than month, while the others cannot
be depended upon after two weeks. 10 thl;
the New England Farmer adds: A successful
poultry breeder in Franklin, Mass, has been
experimenting with eggs for setting, and de-
clares the above statement correct, and adds
that eggs stored on the large end for fe"
weeks before setting will hatch at once, IN in
stead of varying several hours, as is usually
the case with eggs not so prepared.

STORY OF Tom MARsHALL.-Tom Marshall
at one time indulged in such excuses that
his friends became alarmed, and determined
to make an effort to reclaim him. Mr. Man
gum was designated to demonstrate with the
wild Kentuckian, and endeavor to impress
him with a sense of the peril of his position.
"I'll hear anything you have to say, Man.
gum," said Marshall, as the Senator opened
the conversation.
"Your friends have been greatly concern
ed at the manner in which you have been con-
Quoting yourself"
Don't wonder at it. Been badly bothered
myself; Sent you here to talk with me, didn't
they?"
"Yes; they thought as sometimes take a
glass myself, my advice would have the more
effect"
"You do drink too much Mangum. I've
been thinking of speaking to you on the sub
ject. But what do you want me to do ?"
"Your friends have the greatest admiration
for your genius and talents. They are con-
fdent that with sobriety and application you
might reasonably aspire to the highest place
under the Government"
"What do you think could get?"
81 have no doubt you might be made Chief
Justice of the United States"
"Tbere's been one Chief Justice in my fam
lily don't care to follow him"
"You might even hope to become president"
"No great credit to follow Captain Tyler.
But tell you what I'll do, Mangum you
make me President Of the United States, and

agree to be banked! Let's take drink. p

EDUCATION.


The notion is very prevalent in this coun'
try, that the laboring man needs no educa.
tior We are ashamed to think of it, much
more to give publicity to it; but still it is a
fact, that very respectable minority of our
people of the better class think that lawyers,
doctors and preachers, should be educated,
but there is no use to waste money in educa-
ting farmers and mechanics. To be able to
write his name, and read little, is thought
to be sufficient for the boy who is to engage
in tilling the soil. However contrary it may
be to the current notion, we venture to give
it as our opinion, that in practice, the farmer
and mechanic have more need of a thorough
scientific education than any one of what is
called the learned professions. The farmer
and blacksmith have constant need Of prac-
tical knowledge Of chemistry and mathemat-
les. Were they all we'll versed in these
sciences, it would save themselves many a
hard and useless days work. 1t is true that
in practice, they learn much of both of these
sciences but how much better would it be if
they were taught the first principles of their
trade before they commence to put it into
practice. No one would think of practicing
law or medicine without first studying law or
medicine. So it should be respecting farming
and mechanics. The scientific principles in
volved in the practice of these avocations of
life, should be thoroughly understood by those
designed to practice them. Every boy who
expects to farm, should learn the principles
of land surveying; and every boy who de-
signs being mechanic, should learn the
principles of mensuration, so as to be able to
make his own calculations

LABOR AND CAPITAL.

Some things sustain to each other mutu-
al relation. This may be said of labor and
capital. Labor without capital ceases to be
profitable, and capital without labor has no
value. Rich and poor are words that have
no absolute meaning. A man with ten thou
sand acres of as fertile land as the world at
fords, if he can neither work it himself nor
secure the labor of others by which to work
it, is poor in the midst of all his possessions.
The land brings him in no income, and he
might as we'll own no land. Again, an indi-
vidual may have Golfer filled with gold !;
but if the means of sustenance cannot be
bought with this gold, its possessor is in the
same condition as if he were penniless. In a
country where there is little capital, and
superabundance of laborers, labor is not re-
munerative. In country, however, where
capital is abundant, and in hourishing con.
dition, the man who has good physical
frame, is energetic, skilful and industrious, is
rich, although he may be the owner of no real
estate. His labor will always be in demand
at remunerative prices, and consequently ne
will be comparatively independent.
Labor and capital stand so related to each
other that whatever Injuries or oppresses the
one, has the same effect on the other. In
country where all the inhabitants are manual
laborers, there can be but little capital, and
but few of the comforts of civilization and
none of the luxuries of life.
1t is clear that whenever the capitalist at
tempts to crush out the laborer, he undertakes
a work which will ultimately crush out HIM
self. The same principle applies to the Ia
borer. Whenever he attempts to crush out
the capitalist, he undertakes his own ruin.
So soon as the capital Of country becomes
embarrassed, the laboring class becomes in
Strengthened condition. The cry for bread is
long and loud.
Since the interests of the capitalist and Ia
borer are mutually dependent upon each
other, or rather since the interests of the Ia
borer and the capitalist are the same, their
relations should ever be friendly. 1t is
ominious of evil when the labor and capital
of country become arrayed against each
other. 1t is impossible to say which class
suffers most by such a conflict. The capital
ist is made manual laborer, and the manual
laborer is made a beggar. The former is
threatened with starvation, because he cannot
work and the latter, because he cannot get
employment.

Smith; he was the worst old beat you ever

on tick, and has slept on tick ever since. He
was so mean that once when he had cent in
his pocket, to keep his wife from getting it, he
made his oldest boy swallow it, and that boy
was copperhead all through the war. Bill
was going down the Mississippi on a steamboat.
When the collection was being taken up, he
got out on the guard to hide, and he fell over
board. The water was hundred feet deep,
and two miles wide and the best water to
drown man in ever saw. Bill couldn't

HARD.

HANUs
In all ages of the world, it has been regard
ed as difficult thing to live pious life. 1t
is hard to cruelty the flesh. To an unsancti.
fed nature, sin, however painful in its re,
suits, is pleasant in its practice. 1t is congo.
nial to our nature Not only is it hard to
cease to sin, but it is also hard to practice the
duties and .priviIegs of religion. They that
would live godly in Christ Jesus, must suffer
prosecutions. Because of the sinfulness of
our nature, the road to heaven is narrow and
difficult of ascent. That man who has no
conflicts will never enjoy any victories.
