the vALUE or A TRADE.

The old story Of the uncertainty Of riches
and the Importance Of learning trade ID
brought to mind by the following Kari
Frostern, the old nail maker Of Luben. ii
silesia, was jolly. storytelling man, WIN
suLg at his work, and whose busy hammer
made merry music.
Not far away lived Herr Won Kobcn, a
wealthy landowner, whose only son, wheu
not at school, was wont to come to tue nail
er's, where he would sit by the hour and
watch the bright sparks al tlIsy dew iii show.
ers from the ringing anvil.
"Come, Master Conrad" said the railcr.
one day, in jolly mood why not set tho
world an exampley Show them that the son
Of rich man can learn trade. Who know
but that 1t may profit you ono Of these days -
The youth fell in with the hlmorr Of tie
thing and pulling cF his, Ane jacket, lie do,,-
ned leather apron, and went to the anvil.
He was d bright, quick lad, and, wien he had
once attempted to make nail, be had priJo
to make it well ; and so it came to pass that
ere long he could make shoe nails as deity
and as well as could old Karl.
Time passed on, and Her Won Kobcn did.
leaving his great Wealth to his son Conrad.
A few years thereafter the armies Of Frederick
came sweeping through Silcsia. and Conrad j
inheritance was lost. In poverty he wander
ed away toward the mountains Of Bohemia,
sntil he came to a town where q host Of shoe
makers were at a standstill for want Of nails.
Shoes were in great demand for the soldiers.
and great price was offered for nails nHerc,"
thought Conrad, sis my opportunity. LIT
us see how my trade win serve me-
And he told the shocmakers il they would
help him to a shop and \ forge. hs would
make nails for them. They furnished him
what was required, and he went at work in
earnest. He made better nails than had ever
been seen before ID that section. He took
apprentices, and enlarged his shop, and in
time Won Koben's pals, we're demanded ON
both sides of the mountains. BY slow but
sure degrees he arose to opulence as q maru-
facturer, honored and respected as the fuupJx
or Of his own fortune. And 1t all came, ia Ls
was proud to .ell his children in tho after
years, from his having learned a trade in his
youth.

Americanss Well, I'll tell you !"
'In 1850, the Nicholas Railroad from St.
Petersburg to Moscow--about 500 miles--was
finished, and number of Russians Generals
put their heads together to get a profitable
contract out Of the Government. The scheme
they hit ON was to keep the rolling stock of
the road in repair for ten years. The. Minis
ter Of Public Works, who was IN tie ring,
made contract with them by which it was
agreed to pay them eight cents for every mile
passenger car went over the road four cents
a mile for each freight car, and so on. The
document having been property drawn, was
carried by the Minister TO the Emperor Nicho-
las, and handed him to sign
"What is this y asked the Car.
g Your Imperial Majesty, it is plan for re-
ducing the expenses of the Government, in
the management Of the new railroad. A very
advantageous contract, your Majesty"
Nicholas glanced at it,
Yes, but what do my generals about rail-
ways?" said he /; and then after moments
reflection he asked 8 Where are those Ameri-
cans who were here building carss"
"They are III che b,iildtinig,s' Vas tils reply.
"Send them to me at once" said Nicholas.
Presently those Americans, who we're
William and Thomas Winans, of Baltimore,
were dshered into the presence
9 The Gar handed them the contract
Do you want that?" he said
They looked at it, and, as il was in Russ,
they did not quite understand its provisions.
They told HIM 500
Well, take it away with you, and be here
at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and let me
know wheather youll take it."
At the appointed hour they saw the Gear
and interlined Some slight alterations that
they wanted. These were at once acceded to,
and made on the spot. The names Of the
Wilians brothers were substituted for those
of the Russian generals, and Nicholas attach
ed his signature to the parchment
The Winas brothers made twenty million
dollsrs out of the contract.
sIn 1856 when Alexandria, the present
Gar, was crowned" continued Colonel
Gowen, ''Sir Robert Peel, who was well ao-
qnainted with the Grand Duke Constantine,
was in Attendance. Before his departure
from St. Petersburg he called upon the Grand
Duke To take his leave.o
"Well, sir Robert, have you scen the

Prince.

"Why, is there ANYTHING else worth see

"To be sure there is. You've missed the

MENTAL FooD.--Good bread is the stan Of
life, and if we lean on that We grow strong
and healthy. If we bring up our children on
plain, wholesome diet they grow tall, erect,
strong and healthy. BIT IL we feed them on
rich cake and fancy pastry, and fill their
stomachs with all sorts Of trash, spiced up to
tempt the appetite beyond what nature re-
quires, their appetities become dcprayed, and
they loathe the food best calculated TO make
them grow healthy and strong and, in CON
sequence they grow pale, poor, puny, aud
weak. just 80 with the mind. Our minds
ought to become clear and strong, enlightened
and elevated. There is food that il healthy
and nutritious for tue mind. But tile literary
cooks have served the public with SO much
highly seasoned food that the TASTES Of their
readers, especially Of the young, nave become
vitiated, and they turn with disgust from
good, solid Instructive reading, which would
improve their mental powers, and make them
Intellectually strong, and help them to become
useful n. embers, to society. But they eagerly
devour literary pastry, if highly spiced.
They crave sensational reading romance and
fiction pathetic, comic and tragic. And
this exciting reading, SO stimulatingt TO the
brain, is tempting and they read too much.
The consequence is, their minds Become
dwarfed and sickly. They gain 10 real know
ledge, but the brain is weakened, the memory
ruined. and intellectual vigor, destroyed ; and
these mental dyspeptics are about as unit to
grapple with the stern realities of life as a
worn out, haggard, physical dyspeptic Is to
endure the hardships of a soldiers life in a
campaign against the Modocs.

The faiterfng spirit of the mind;

All seeking some way to be blest;
Nor dream the Joy they never know
Is how to rest.

Yet bliss Is this, to know through all
That one Is true.
They perish swim the gala flowers
The laudins people love to finEi
Wait silrnce. dearth, and lonely hours

But never shall he faint or fall
Who lists to hear Ger every fate
The sweeter and the higher call

She holds me safe from shame or sin;
The holy temple of her love

We let the weary world go by;

LONDON, October 4-The Thercapiu
correspondent of the Times, in a letter
dated September &c, says that the Porte
grounds its resistance to the demands Of
the powers on its alleged inability to curb
the passions of a mob, and its ultima
ratio is threat Of the massacre of all
Christians. The Turkish ministers also
allege that they are constantly receiving
anonymous letters. and placards are
posted at every corner Of Stomboul,
threatening popular vengeance on the
government if they accept conditions in
compatible with the dignity of the en-
pire. Shrewd persons are inclined to
be,'eve these means are prearranged by
the government, but many European
residents, aud even some diplomatists,
especially Elliott, the British Ambassa-
dor, are disquieted, The panic in Pera
is almost as general as in May last, at
