The idea that meant to convey was
that under our present social system
and corrupt Literature, it is better to
retain, for tbs good Of oil, our present
labor system. Experience has proved
those who have the most leisure gener.
ally control our elections and make our
foolish fashions, which Is responsible
for liquor shops and crimes, which has
been figured by able men to be tax on
labor Of one and half billions year.
Bro. Wells here Is nut tocrack. These
are stubborn facts written on the wall;
honest continuous labor has proved a
blessing to man, mind and country;
can you find Brother such men paupers
or criminals 7 IL so tell me. The tree
must be known by itsfruit. The classic
scholar steps off the stage on commence
msnt day and is never heard of again,
while the poor boy is compelled to work
which makes him competent to do; he
works his ten hours and reads some
thing substantial, makes use Of the
means within his reach, and his labor
grows into manhood, to love for It's
moral principle. I tell you, you can no
more set bounds to labor to q growing
mind or growing country than to ma
turs itself. The labor question is settled
by unwritten law. Some say too much
machinery, If SO science and civilization
are failure. Machinery 10 as much .
part Of science and progression as your

Healing Up.

The wound on the little finger Of G.
W. Powell, made by the bite of his lit
tie black and tan dog on Saturday last,
is rapidly healing up, at least it is very
little infamed, and Mr.. P. says it gives
him no pain whatever. He feels salts
fed that the dog was not affected with
hydrophobia, although he took the pre-
caution to procure one of Samuel
Townsend's pills, which he got from
Mr.. johnson, editor Of the " Delaware
Gazette, and to him he feels very
thankful. We hope that Mr.. P.'s an
ticipation Of speedy cure without any
evil effects will be fully realized.

GINGER AND IT'S UsEs.-There is no mem
Der of the family of condiments, with perhaps,
the exception of pepper, that enters moro gen.
orally into family use than ginger. 1t is CRATE
full to the palate and beneficial to health and a
natural taste Graves it as delightful element
in the economy of homecraft. Hence we find
it everywhere in all varieties of form, and es-
pecially in the country, where the farmer well
comes it in his pumpkin-pies, and in the field
at haying time, in the SWITCHED, which al
lays the thirst and stimulates the energy better
than the stronger fluids of former times. In
the cities ginger takes other forms as principal
component in temperate and agreeable cooling
drinks, from the genteel soda syrup to the
humble ''pop,' which "cheers but not inc
briates," and enjoys wide popularity. DIR.
E. H. SANFORD, whose extract of JAMAICA
GINGER is at present enjoying so extensive a
demand, while residing in Jamaica, was at
tracted more particularly towards the uses Of
ginger by observing the delight which ginger
beer gavelto every one, sharing the honors
with pepper punch, made from "Buccra-man
peppers" as the negroes called them. This
first excited in his mind the idea of preparing
the extract from ginger in concentrated
form for popular use which he has since SO
effectually carried out. AS now prepared by
his process, the native virtues of ginger are
much enhanced by the addition of pure brandy
and aromatics, so that it may in truth be said
to be the most invigorating of beverages as
well as the most reliable of household panaceas
for ailments and diseases peculiar to the sum-
mer and winter months, and to change of wa
ter, food, or climate.

Business and Industry in Maine

In spite of the fact that the lumber interest
and other special interests of Maine will be
the last to feel the indications of better times,
there is hopeful feeling on the part of the
very men who have most heavily felt the bust
ness depression. The demand for lumber has
increased, even if the prices have not greatly
improved. The supply of logs is much below
that of the past few years, due to the partial
failure to get lumber out of the streams, but
more to the fact that much smaller amount
was cut last winter than usual Freights for
coasting vessels have so far improved as to
give those engaged in that business a much
better prospect than they have enjoyed for
some time.
One of the most profitable and growing in
dustries of many portions of the state is that
OF sheep raising. The high prices which wool
commands, and the fact that it always brings
cash, has encouraged many farmers to give I'M
usual attention to this industry. From what
can learn of the business the statistics show
ing the value of the clip would surprise
many and give Maine rank among the WOOL
growing states.
Potato culture has received much attention
in Maine, but the price and demand are so I'M
certain, that only about every other year is
there any money in it, Last year was money
year but the industry of the potato bug in many
localities promises to make the crop this year
sufficiently short to make good prices. Con-
siderable interest is now manifested in the re-
suit OF the beet sugar experiment. Those en-
gagged in it are confident of ultimate success
An unusual breadth of land has been devoted
to wheat this year. OF late it has been q sure
crop. The hay crop will be one of the largest
ever gathered. In many parts of the state it
is the .'otf year, for apples-Cor. Boston
