Sir Walter Raleigh on Wine.

Take special care that you de-
light not in wine, for there never
was any man that came to honor or
preferment that loved it, for it
transformer a man into a beast,
decaycth health, poisoneth the
breath, destroyeth natural heat,
bringeth mans stomach to an
artificial burning, deformeth the
face, rotteth the teeth, and to con-
clude, maketh a man contemplate,
soon old, and despised of all wise
and worthy men; hate it in thy
servants, thyself and thy COM
panlons, for it is bewitching and
infectious vice; and remember my
words, that it were better for man
to be subject to any vice than to it;
for all other vanities and sins are
recovered; but a drunkard
will never shake off the delight of
beastliness; for the longer it pos
sessoth a man the more he will
delight in it, and the older he grow
eth the more he will be subject to
it, for it dulleth the spirits and
destroyeth the body, as ivy doth
the old tree, or as the worm that
cngendercth in the kernel of the
nut

Braxton Bragg.

Gen. Braxton Bragg was inter-
viewed by a St. Louis reporter the
other day, and expressed himself
on the subject of jeff Davis, seces>
sion, the Government, &c. We
quote a portion of The account, as
follows:
Reporter-I suppose you favored
secession? ?
General--I did. | thought, and
think now, that it was necessary for
our honor. Our institutions were
being encroached upon in a manner
that demanded action. l would
have favored fighting under the old
flag. We were maintaining the
true Constitution, and not the other
side-they should have been called
rebels, and not us.
Reporter-What are your feel
ings now toward the Government
General have no Government.
| am disfranchised; that is, l sup
pose | am, as | have not inquired
into the matter. I take no interest
in it. My property was confscated
and had nothing left me but my
debts, and have had to work for my
living since the war.
Reporter-Would you fight for
the Government if called upon?
General-Were it war exclu-
sively involving the nationality of
the Government, / might. I am
strictly with my people fthe South,
and the circumstances would have
to be extraordinary to induce me to
serve under such Government as
now predominates. There would
be but little inspiration to fight for
Government controlled by such
men as Ben Butler and other such
men now in office.

THE MAINE Ice CRoP.-Thc to-
tai yield of the ice crop in Maine
for the present season, including
OLD ice on hand, cannot be reck oned
short of 100000 tons. AID it may
possibly reach 100000 tons. Cf
this amount probably 100000 have
been sold or bargained for at So
per ton, or a total Of nearly ST.
100000. This price is a remuner-
ative one, netting large profit to
owners. Il the rest of the crop is
sold at the same figure, the total
amount realized from Names ice
product will be between 100000
ana S., 100000. To transport this
product to a market will require a
fleet of not less than 5000 vessels.
To carry away the product of the
Kennebec will require over 5000
vessels, or al average of nearly
fifteen vessels day from opening
of the river to navigation to its
close.

HOVE EDUCATIoN.-We do not
hesitate to attribute greater impor~
tance to home education than to
school education for it is beneath
the parental roof, when the heart
is young, and melted by the warmth
& tireSlIe affection, that the deepest
impressions are made; it is at home,
beneath parental influence and ex-
ample, that the foundations of
physical, moral and mental habits
ere laid it is at home where lasting
opinions are formed. School IN,
struction can never supercede the
necessity of vigilant parental lead
ing and training at the freside.
