MAKE FRIENDS.

II will give you an unfailing key to
success, said an experienced man to
young friend; "Make one new friend
every day, and retain all You Make
Three hundred and dsixty five friends
year wonld certainly be an impor-
tant auxiliary to the productive re-
sources of an ambitions young man
making his way in the world. But
then comes the question, alIow are
these friends to be made2'' 1t will be
easy enough TO retain friend once
earned, but how can this very excel
lent prescription of making friends be
carried out? There may be many
ways in which progress may be had in
this direction, even If the task should
not be literally accomplished. Let us
look at the matter in q rational way.
To commence with, civility is an ex-
ccllentbait with which to catch friends.
and civility is cheap. Nothing is easier
than to keep a supply constantly ON
hand There are bogus articles some
times attempted to be palmed of for
the real thing, but they are all so base
that they are easily detected. Obsequ-
iousnessis one, fattery another, mock
modesty n third, ofliciousness fourth,
add 80 on. These may have the gen.
uine stamp, but their spuriousness is
easily detected, True civility needs
no false lights to show its points. Its
the embodiment of Truth, the mere
opening out of thc inner self The
arts and artifices Of a polished exterior
are well enough but if there are any
thing less or more than fair exponent
OF inward rectitude their hollowness
cannot long escape detection. Shake
speare had said, "A man may smile,
and smile, and be villain = but all
the world knows that there is wide
difference between the smile of vii.
lain and that Of an honest man.
Courtesy, which is the natural out
growth of inward gcntleness, bears its
characteristics by the artless child as
by the grown man. Civility, there
fore, TO be effective in this quest, must
have the sub-stratum of goodness. 1t
must be pervading and uniform, not
exceptional and ftiul. 1t is all very
well to lay the blame of an unreliable
and explosive temper to weak diges-
tion, or that crash humor" inherited
from others; but its disastrous effects
are all the same. The worst tempers
are made subsoryient TO well settled
and persistent principle of right doing.

tial than the signature OF the Khedive OF
Egypt
This is the frst time that the credit OF
this great company has been publicly and
profoundly shaken, but II is not the first
time that rash and illegal acts have
brought IL in reality to the verge OF ruin.
During the latter feverish days OF the Sec
ond Empire, the Credit Foucier advanced
eighty millions of dollars on the personal
guaranty of Baron HAUssMANN and his
army of contractors. How had II con-
trived to lay hands on that great sum
In its normal capacity of bdnquc tonctere,
or Pledge Of town and county securities,
il had thrown on the market SS00OO,OOO in
communal bonds totally unrepresented
by advances. and unsanctioned by author
ity of any kind. Happily this unlawful
Issue was forthwith ratified by the COM
plaisaut legislative body, and the public
which had purchased the worthless paper
was unconscious of the danger until 1t had
been overcome by q woll-cemented law.
A measure of prccaution was, however,
inserted in the amended charter of 1860, by
which the maximum Of deposits at one timc
WIS HAUL Ut tlkuttth bhtiiOho VI NViio,1t
and the maximum of commercial paper re-
ceivablc was never to exceed one-thrd OF
the sums deposited. It was this regulation
which NJ. NAoUET had In mind when he
affirmed the other day in the Chamber of
Deputies that the Credit Foncier had for
foited its charter.
Ii is now known that the syndicate Of
French capitalists which volunteered with
so much apparent magnanimity to provide
the interest accruiug Inst May upon the
Egyptian debt. was really acting in the in-
tercst Of this company. Whether the pres
ent scheme for funding the Khedive's la
biities can be successfully carried out Is a
question whose answer cannot be long
postponed. On Il depends the existence
OF the Credit Foncier; and few months
therefore will determine whether this re-
markable corporation will continue with
diminished prestige to prosecute its vast
undertakings, or must submit like our
broken savings banks and insurance COM
panies to disgraceful and ruinous liqui-
dalton.

The truth is that the strength and fight

Court Of Appeals, and we agree with the
Court of Appeals.
In the case of Joan LAWRENCE. referred

that no crime was charged against the re-

petrated under writs of extradition. MIR.
LAWRENCE had been steamboat captain
on the rivers of the West, and was widely
and most favorably known. Having ac-
cumulated fortune i'm the steamboat bust
ness, he engaged in mining in Utah. An
interest In one of his mines was sold to
EBER b. WARD of Detroit. WARD, years
afterward, said he had been deceived by

accounted the richest man in Michigan, and
had LAWRENCE been forced there aud tried

ter feeling generally against dealers in
mines-with all WARDS money and infu-
ence against him. he would almost certain
ly have been convicted and sent TO the
State prison, and deprived of his valuable
property in that State. As 1t is, the mine
in question was subsequently found TO
yield ore richer than Capt. LAWRENCE had
ever represented, and the attachments on
his property were dissolved aud the civil
suits against him voluntarily discontinued
by WARDS legal representatives.

An Independent Republican Advises Them to
Vote for Widen md uendricks.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Str: Per-
init me to address, through THE SUN, Eve hun
dred thousand Independent voters scattered
throughout the United States.
GENTLEMES The time Is nigh at hand when
we have duty to discharge in voting for Presi-
dent and for vice-Presldent.
There are two great political parties. the Dem
ocratic and Republican. These two parties have
nominated their candidates, and one OF these
parties will elect their candidates. Which will
youvote for2 have made up my mind to vote
for the Democratic, although L have generally
voted the Republican ticket.
One hundred years ago our heroic fathers
signed Declaration OF Independence, and
pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sa-
cred honor to sustain 1t. After these hundred
years have como and gone. what Is the present
condition Of our nation2 All that a kind Provi-
dence could give us we have Of material wealth,
certainly the elements of 1t, a broad expanse Of
territory from ocean to ocean. intersected by
lakes and great rivers every sort OF climate (;
mineral riches. such as gold, silver, copper,
iron, coal, and all other kiuds. We have an In
dustrious population. Why, then, are 30 many
of them forced to be idle1
l. Because the Republican Administration at
Washington continue to make money out OF
paper rags.
II. Because they pass laws pretending to pro-
tect labor, and our various Industries under
these laws are sick nigh unto death. Our manu-
features have taken SO IN Jch OF this protection
physc that many have died, and all are gasp
ing for breath DIR. Sangrado's practice Of
bleeding his patients to death was mild com
pared with that Of our Republican doctors.
Ill because by the influence Of these Internal
laws our ships have gone from the sea, and our
brave sailors are dead or gone into other trades,
and without the permission Of England we can't
wash our bands In salt water.
". because under these laws every sort OF
manufacturing Is done at loss. and mills are
idle and offered for sale for 10 OF 20 cents on a
dollar OF their cost.
V. Because city and village property under
this same influence is worth only 20 to 20 per
cent. on Its cost.
| But this is not the worst OF it. When we turn
| from material wealth to the higher interest OF
| public and private morals, the damage Is fright
| full But need not particularize TO the readers
OF The Sun, for It has, day by dayton many years
with persistent fidelity, followed those who have
been stealing the public money. 1t has been SC

where II has been mistaken.
