lhenn Visiting Cards.

Tho American Agricultural calls at
tention to "A swindlo OF petty details, but
large IN the aggregate. Eastern firms
and others advertising to furnish cheap
visiting cards at 4 price which does not
cover the cost of good cardboard These
advertisements are directed to the young
people. and receive attention usually
from none but the young. The first one
or two orders from any locality are flied
promptly, as rule, and large induce
ments are offered 10 agents. In this
way it oftens happens that some person
&c the vicinity consents to act As agent,
and secures a club, larger or smaller, as
the case may be. The names and money
are sent on, the advertising firm pockets
the money, and the agent is left 10 max c
good tho loss of the patrons who have
ordered cards. All this is bad enough,
but the evil does not end here The
lists Of names secured this way are
turned over 10 tho publishers of obscene
literature, who use the lists in directing
circulars, etc. The first advertisements
for cards, etc, frequently appear in The
amateur papers, whore they escape no.
tice, except among the young. The Ag
riculturIst advises all parents whose
children have sent their names for these
cheap cards, TO carefully supervise the
mail matter received by their children.

In his discourse in Boston, OH Theo
dore Parker as an Anti-Slavcry Re
former, Rev. Joseph Cook said, in vim
dication of Daniel Webster:
Webster hoped VIC should pass through
tho crisis without civil war, and could
hardly have made more gigantic efforts
TO have averted the contest had he fore.

/ did, far better than some have thought.

me say that my personal feeling is that
! Webster, from the first TO last, was Eon-
est, and that he ventured much because
he had great foresight. believe that
man anticipated, with fulness We can
but poorly understand from any OF his
public expressions, the tcrrors OF our
civil war. Judge Nesmyth, on the Mer-
rimack yondera at Franklin, who convcrs-
cd over and over with Webster in bis
last years, on his speech of March eth,
and who is often quoted in Curtis Life
of Webster as final authority, said 20 me
the other day: "Once at Fins farm
was returning home in Ghe sunset with
Webster, and he turned upon me sud
denly, and in his deepest, supernatural!
voice, said: 'You may regard me as ex
travagant, but have had some expert
cnce with both Northern and Southern
men. | probably shall not live to see
the Potomac run red with blood, bat
think you WILL" That was within six
months of the time when, on the shore
of the sea at Marshfeld yOndcr, that m n
went hence. No doubt he was ambi-
tious. In secret as well as in public he
prayed that when his eyes should be
turDed to behold for the last time the
sun in heaven, they might not sec him

fragments Of a once glorious Union, on
States discovered, diScordant, belligcr.
