There is a class of persons in this
world, by no means small, whose promi-
nent peculiarly is whining. They whine
because they are poor, or, if rich, be-
cause they have no health to enjoy their
riches; they whine because it is too sum
ny; they whine because they have emo
luck" and others prosperity exceeds
theirs; they whine because some friends
have died and they are still living; they
whine because they have aches and pains,
and they have aches and pains because
they whine; and they whine no one can
tell why. Now we would like to say a
word to these whining persons. First,
stop whining-it is Of no use complain
ing, fretting, fault-tinding and whining.
Why, you are the most deluded set of
creatures that ever lived Do you not
know that it is a well-settled principle of
physiology and common sense that these
habits are more e~xhausting to nervous
vitality than almost any other violation of
physiological law! And do you not
know that life is pretty much as You
make it! You can make it bright and
s%unshlny, OF yOu can make it dark and
shadowy. This life is meant only to
discipline us-to tit us for a higher and
purer state of being. Then stop whining
and fretting, and go on yourrway re-
iOicinr.

TIL TILLEI or HISNOM,

In the Lemont Methodist Episcopal
Church at Chicago, Sunday, the Rev. Mr..
Phelps preached from the text, "How
shall We escape the damnation of hell =,
and gave the following explanation Of the
phrase
1.-The word hell Il translation of the
Greek word Gehenna, is Il term used to
designate the Valley of Hinnom. This
valley bounds Jerusalem on the north,
and lies below Mount Zion-a scene of
sacred and imperishable associations. In
this valley Molock, the national god of
the Amorites, was wOrshipped with the
horrid and inhuman rite of sacrificing
children in the fire. When Josiah, i'll
his cOnquests, overthrow this idolatry, he
poured contempt upon the Internal prac-
tice by casting into the valley the bones
of the departed. In the estimation of the
old Hebrews, the bones of the dead
caused the greatest of all pol~lutions.
Whatever person., place or things they
touched were forthwith considered I'M
clean Hence this Valley of Hinnom,
this Gehenna, this hell, having been
the receptacle of the human remains
which Josiah threw into it, was consider
ed a place the most polluted and occurs
ed. From this circumstance it became a
common receptacle for all the refuse of
the city of Jerusalem. Here large guam
titles of decomposing vegetable and ami
NAL matter were constantly thrown. This
putrescent matter generatedan abundance
of worms the worm here never died.
To prevent the noxious effluvia springing
from this mass of corruption, poisoning
the atmosphere and breathing disease
and death into the heart of the city, fires
were kept burning day and night. This
valley, therefore, was literally a place
where the worm never died, and where
the fire was never quenched.' Jesus, as
a teacher, always seized on such incidents
and facts as were familiar to His hearers,
III order to illustrate His meaning. He
uses now this abOminable management
ing and perpetually burning valley to
symbolic the dark destiny which awaits
the wicked"

she seams of vessels and covering for the
corks of bottles. The husk, cut square
off, is used for a scrubbing-brush, and
there is no end to the variety of uses for
the shells.
The most curious nut in the world, no
doubt, is the snake nut. 1t is found in
Demarara and it is somewhat smaller
than an egg. The kernel looks like q
small boa constructor coiled up, asleep.
When green, the snake can be uncoiled
and its resemblance is still more wonder
full. l don't know as this is good for any
thing except as a curiosity, for it cannot
be very tempting to eat.-OUre 7horne,

DrjJju of ErOOIScHD.

Every boy knows what foolscap paper
is, but we doubt whether one in a hun
bred of those who Use it can tell why it
WAS 50 called.
When Oliver Cromwell became Pro-
tector of England, he caused the stamp
of the Cap of Liberty to be placed upon
the paper used by the government. Soon
after the restoration of Charles H., when
he had occasion to use some paper for
dispatches, some of this government
paper was brought to him. On looking
at it he inquired the meaning of it; and
on being told he said, "Take it away !;
I'll have nothing to do with a FOOLS
cap"
Thus originated the term JoOlscap,
which hns since been given to a sheet of
writing paper usually about sixteen by
thirteen inches.

SUFFERING md IRRITATION,

The Baltimore SIN publishes an in
beresting story from one of the men res
cued from the ice off the coast of New
foundland, and brought to that port by
the steamer Nuremberg. The party are
all Irishmen, or of Irish descent, and
comprised nearly the entire able-bOdied
male population of the little town of st.
Mary's, Newfoundland. When return
ing to the shore, on the evening of the
day on which they boarded the ice
bound brig, they found the ice had
parted about a mile from shore, leaving
II space of half a mile of clear water, with
night coming, i'll Il storm of rain, sleet,
and, finally, snow, incapacitated several
of the party, and when the morning
dawned several corpses were counted. A
heavy mass of ice, twenty feet square,
tioated near, upon which nine of the
party got, hoping hat it would drift
toward the shore ice and they could thus
save themselves. When it had hoated
300 feet from the ice upon which were
their comrades, it grounded, and the I'M
fortunate men remained upon it for
three days and nights, during which
time six of them died. All the food they
had in that time was u small white fish,
which was frozen in the ice. The
eighteen men remaining after the nine
tioated off made their way back to the
abandoned brig. All expected to die in
her, and some of them had lost their
senses before reaching her. The brig
was moored in the ice for a week, in
sigh of land, and the fishermen were on
her ten days. The narrator says he has
a family of six children, and some of
those who died leave families equally
large. The ten men were taken In
charge by the British Consul and sent

THE LITTLE BRE4KER BOY.

A recent article in american Homes,
entitled " From Hold to Nine" descrip-
tive of the process of preparing coal for
market, gives lis this glimpse of the
wretched lives of the class of children
for whom it would seem there ought to
be Civil Rights bill enacted:
More stairs, and then we come to other
streams of coal shipping and sliding
down the iron-shod shoots. Again and
again it passes through the ~sifters, till at
last only a black dust flows out upon
the ground, where it is picked up and
carried away.
The breaker is crowded with men and
boys. They sit on benches above the
drifting streams of coal, and with pa
tient eyes and grim fingers pick out every
scrap of slate that passes under them. In
the stove and nut coal small boys, mere
ten and twelve-year-old youngsters, sit in
dusty rows and thrust their pitiful little
paws into the sliding mass in pursuit of
the slate and stone.
Behind the rows of little fellows that
bridge the dusty brook stands the task
master, with his brutal stick, to keep
them i'll order and up to their work. We
stand III the dust-laden air, and watch
the black little fellows with feelings of
pity and indignation. Has this corpora
ton no more wit than to employ a brutal
overseer with a lash to urge these chill
dren up to their work? We do not
reckon on it's soul. We do not imagine
that it has any worth mentioning. Has
it not wen sense enough to pay these
children by the amount of slate they
gather.
Half the wages of the ~over-looker
would be a splendid prize to keep the
boys up to their work. AS it is, the
business is a disgrace and shame. What
kind of citizens does Pennsylvania think
these breaker-bOys will make. Better
burn slate in half of the stoves in the
country than to drive school children to
such work, with such 4 task-master.
Pennsylvania wit is slow if it cannot in
vent a way of clearing the slate, except
by hands of infants under q whip.
Poor little dirty faces! They are at
least fat and healthy, but but that is all.
The eyes are dull and timid, as if the
world was a sorry place for small boys.
They lean over their choking brook, and
dive into it with a sort of blind pro
test, as if for them the world was all up
side down, and quite out of joint.
Poor little fellows, New England
housekeepers, In their quiet homes, COM
plain if q single slate refuses to burn in
their range, and their children are un-
happy if their mothers ask them just to
bring up one hod from the cellar. Goals
mean comfort and luxury to them, and
they have never a thought of the little
breaker-boys who toll i'll choking dust
and ~defeaning uproar that their coal
may be clean.

Now that the pedestrian fever is at its
height, the Vermont papers are recount
ing the exploits of Joseph Ainsworth, of
Woodbury., 81 years old, who is still a
remarkable walker. and in early life
thought nothing of such feats as travel
ing 90 miles in II hours, IL miles in 80
minutes, 16 miles in 2 hours, ETC., while
on one occasion he walked 36 miles be-
tween breakfast and dinner.

Il BLOODY IMPHTBTIT.

They must have enjoyed a very lively
man-humt near Fulton, Ark, a few days
ago. One James Brown, a noted des-
perado, amused himself by the cold
bloOded murder of a citizen, and nearly
the whole country turned out in pursuit
of the cutthroat. He was driven into the
canebrake of the Red river, ana then en-
sued a chase without a parallel. The
reckless villain, in his efforts to escape,
took to the water like an otter, swimming
with wonderful ease and rapidity, and
for hours managed to conceal himself in
the river and bayous. Finally driven from
the water he took to the forest, and proved
as fleet as a deer and a dead shot, too.
A special train brought reinforcements
to the farmers, and Brown was sur
rounded, but when the circle closed in
the man was gone. Soon after he was
discovered in the river beside a log,
swimming rapidly with the current, and
retaining his shotgun. Volley after
vOlley was fired at him, and without any
further effect than to eventually drive
him out of the water on the other side.
Here, as he was escaping with a whoop
of defiance, he met a body of negroes;
he fired and tumbled one of them, but q
bullet of the return volley struck him.
He limped into the brush and finally
escaped. His shotgun was found with
the marks of over Il dozen bullets on the
stock. Brown is described as q red
haired giant, and he seems to be Just
about the toughest customer on record.
They ought not to have let him get away.
HOW TO CLEANSE L GLOTES.
Take a little sweet milk and a piece of
white or brown soap. Fold a clean
towel three or four times, spread it over
your dress, and spread out the gloves
smoothly upon it. Take a large piece of
white flannel, dip it in the milk, then
rub it npon the soap, and rub the glove
downward toward the fingers, holding
the wrist of it by the left hand. Con-
tinue this process until the glove, if
white, looks of a dingy yellow, but if
colored, looks dark and entirely spoiled.
Now let it dry, and put it on your hand,
and it will be soft, smooth, glossy and
clean. Take care, however, to omit no
part of the glove in rubbing it, and see
that all the soiled parts are thoroughly
cleaned.
This process applies only to white
and colored kid gloves. For black gloves
that are soiled, turned white and other
wise injured, take a teaspoonful of salad
oil, drop a few drops of ink into it, and
rub it all over the gloves with the tip of
a feather; then let them dry in the sun.
White kid boots and slippers can also
be restored to their pristine gloss by the
method.

Ho.kin. versa. vermont Farmer.

A few OF our readers are aware that
suit at law has been peAding between the
publisher Of the FARMER and DR. 7. II. Hos.
kius, in which the said Hoskins was the ag-
gressor. That suit has been terminated by
the decision Of the referee, and our readers
may be interested to know the result. The
doctor was once the editor and part propri-
etor Of this paper. Finding us 50 uncom.
Portable to get along with and having mo
decency about US" he passiOuately left the
Office one day 1--WE didn't blame him bit
for that, not wei leaving the editorial work
on our hands without any notice or psepara-
ton, and soon after compelled us to accept
his terms or be subjected 10 a settlement Of
our affairs by law. We chose the former,
and did our business with an attorney whom
he sent to close the trade, as he was in such
friendly mood toward us that he could not
bear the thought Of a separation should he
present himself in person. We then sup
posed our business matters with him were
settled, or would be when we paid him a
note Of S255,l3 and be paid US balance Of
private book account amounting to about
500. But not SO. While endesVoring to
obtain this last settlement, he sued us at the
Orleans county court, for the note and a
book account of $500 which, in his remark
ably good state of feeling he had Matched
up against u.s. We then rendered him the
amount Of the note aud the costs, less the
balance Of account due US. The case was
taken out Of court by agreement aud sub
mitted to John l.. Edwards, Esq, OF New
port, who has allowed the doctor se0enteen
dollars, above what we had rendered him,
charging US with the costs Of arbitration,
and the doctor with all the costs at court
This comes about as near TO justice as We
could hope for, and affords us grateful
feeling Of relief that we have been SO for tn.
nate in getting = well, we will not say i
but think it. III. ...... ....... .... .-...

The Future II Our Boys,


We have intimated before that however
anxious parents may be to see their sons we'll
settled 10 lie, and however DESTROYS Of hav-
ing them follow in the footsteps Of their
fathers, they have no power wisely to select
for them an avocation or profession. Hence
the parent has no right to attempt to force
his son to become farmer, mechanic, mer.
chant, lawyer, physician, or clergyman. IL
is the parents duty to educate his son, not
for any special trade, art or profession, bat
for life, thoroughly and practically. The
sou alone can decide what position he is best
fitted to occupy IfIeft free to consult his
owp. tastes and peculiarlties, he will seldom
make mistake on this point.
Bat this article may catch the eyes Of
our boys themselves, who are dreaming Of
the future with so much interest and anxiety.
We propose, therefore, to say something for
their encouragement. There are, doubtless,
many boys and young men who read the
FARMER, who have strong desire " pursue
a thorough and extensive course of study.
If so, in any instance, the fact indicates a
fitness for some sphere of public life, But
some Of these young men see obstacles IN
their way which they know not how to over
come. Now allow us to say to this class,
the fact of overcoming these obstacles is a
very important part of practical education.
The young man who finds no {" lions in the
way" or fails TO meet and overcome diff
culties, can have but little preparation for
the duties of any position in public life.
Obstacles in the way of a young man who
aims to gain position Of honor and useful
ness, are a necessity to the end 10 view.
They serve to cultivate self.reliance and to
develope strength, energy and perseverance,.
Let no one, therefore, settle down in dis
enlargement aud say, al am poor and have
no means nor ability TO acquire a liberal
education" No young man is poor and
helpless who has character, brains and will
to execute his purpose. No one can fail
who will grid himself for the conflict and
resolve to conquer. Aud, as we have init.
mated, the very struggle will do him good.
How. then, can a young man Of limited
means, or no means at all, hope to acquire an
| education?
We answer, he must FIRST FIX determine.
ton to secure this object. He must improve
every opportunity for culture, every means
for gaining the knowledge Of books aud men
He must be willing to lasor with his hands
and practice the greatest economy. Manual
labor is honorable and will never soil the
character, as it may the delicate hands O.
the student. He need never be ashamed O
toll, as means Of prosecuting his studies
Scores Of young men, every year, pas
through our academies and enter our colleges
who have small means, or rely chiefly upor
their own efforts. And the story is not al
told until we have said that this class o
students and graduates are among the bes
scholars and most efficient men in life.
