NEWSPAPER SPoNGERs.-The follow
ing note from asubscriber of the Baltimore
SIn tells its own story. 1t will bear ap-
plication wherever newspaper is pub
lished, and is one of the principal draw
backs to journalistic success. In these
days, when the price brings the newspa-
per within the reach of all but the most
impoverished households, there is no JUS
ti6cation for sponging upon ones neigh
Dor. Ifa newspaper is worth reading it
is worth paying for; and although good
neighborly feeling might not, under ex-
ceptional circumstances, object to lend
ing copy for perusal, there is but one
way to deal with borrowers who are too
close-fsted to buy paper for themselves.
The habitual borrowing of newspa-
pers, and often returning them soiled or
mutilated, is one of those petty annoy
ances that may he avoided by a little tact
and decision, and by the enforcement of
the Shakspearian rule to neither Dor.
rover nor lender be-" Here is the cor
respondents note:
MEssRs. EDITORS: After much patient
forbearance I come to you to complain of
a nuisance which I am forced to bear in
common with great many others. I
refer to the practice of borrowing the pa
per. "Neither borrowing nor lender
be-" So wrote Shakespeare, and his ad-
vice would be appropriate to certain
class of newspaper readers of to-day.
Now, borrowing newspaper seems
trivial matter, but the absence of the Sun
from our home means the loss of the gen.
eral reference index of all our informa-
tion-social, political, commercial and
religious. Without it we don't know
exactly when the train starts, we can't
tell when the church meeting is to be
held, nor where to 60 for the evenings
amusement, nor who is elected. In
short, we have lost our household chart
for the day. OF course borrowing pre-
sumes neighborly feeling, but in many
cases, because of its becoming nuis-
ance, the request is granted of necessity
rather than politeness, for the paper is
sometimes gone before we have chance
to read it, and when it returns (which is
not always the case) it is soiled and mu
tilated, and not in fit condition to read.
This is very aggravating, and have of.
ten thought that I would be compelled
to stop the San on that account. 1 hope
you will make this public, for am GER
tain that I am only one of numerous
class that are annoyed in this way.

A MIRACLE.
WEST POINT, GA, !

WEST POINT, GA, Sept l6, 1870.
GENrs-My daughter was taken on the 25th day
of June, 1868, with what was supposed to be Acute
Rheumatism, and was treated for the same with no
success. In March, following, pieces of bone be-
gan to work out of the right arm, and continued
TO appear till all the bone from the elbow to the
shoulder joint came out Many pieces Of bone
then PRONOUNCED one of White Swelling. After
having been confined about six years to her bed,
and the case considered hopeless, was induced to
try DR.. Pembcrton's Compound Extract of Stillin,
ga and was so we'll satisfied with Its effects that
have continued the use of 1t until the present.
My daughter was confined 10 her bed about six
years before she sat up or even turned over with
of her time-has walked across the room. Her
general health Is now good, and believe she will,
as her limbs gain strength, walk we'll. attribute
her recovery, with the blessing OF God, to the use
of your invaluable medicine.

A MAN AND A GATE AND A WOMAN.
The gates at the passenger depots
which shut out all people not having
tickets for the trains were yesterday
closed at the Union Depot against an ell
derly woman wearing spectacles and u.s.
ing an umbrella for cane.
"Can't pass without ticket" said the
man Mt the gate as she camel up.
"I want to see if there IS anybody on
that train going To Port Huron" she an
swered.
"Can't pass without ticket, madam" Z"
"Ive got darter in Port Huron, 1
have"
"Can't help it, please. Ny orders are
very strict"
81 tell you want to send word to my
darterp she exclaimed, adjusting her
spectacles for better view of the Off
cial.
"Yes, but we can't help that, you see.
Please show your ticket"
81 want this 'ere railroad to understand
that I've got darter in Port Huron and
she's got baby four weeks old, and I'm
going to send her up word in spite of all
the gates in this depot!'
"Please show your ticket, madam"
"I tell you once more"-
"Please show your ticket, madam"
She gave the old umbrella whirl and
brought it down on his head with all the
vim of On old-fashioned og-raising and
as he staggered aside she passed him and
said:
"There's my ticket, sir, and I've got
more behind it! Mebbe one man and a
gate can stop me from sending a word to
my darter to grease the baby's nose with
mutton taller if the weather changes cold,
but don't believe it,"
And she walked down to the train,
found some one going to Port Huron and
came back carelessly humming the mel
ody of "The Three Blind Mice. ."-DctroH

sHEEP RAISING.

The average Englishman is as fond
almost of a ''leg o. mutton" as he is
OF ''roastbeef an plumb puddin."
Sheep are therefore In demand in Eng
land, and, w are led to believe, CON-
mand profitable prices. The principal
drawback heretofore to the business of
exporting sheep was the high ocean
rates; but a regular steamship line for
the transportation Of live stock has now
been established, thus affording fair
rates and removing the distractions.
A few large shipments Of sheep
were recently made, and the exporters
say they were satisfied enough to in
duce them to make other large ship
ments SO soon as they can obtain a bet
ter quality, or breed, than the first.
Only the best will suit for expectation.
Why should not the sheep growers of
Wyoming answer the demand? No
where can sheep be raised more econ
omically or favorably. Our climate is
such that disease obtains no foothold,
and our territorial extent warrants the
extension Of sheep ranches. Aside
from the direct profit accruing out of
shipments, the wool clippings must
prove even more profitable than v e
The relations between the wool grow
ers and manufacturers have been estab-
lished on q friendly basis, and they are
now working together in harmony.
Hence the importations Of wool are
falling off, as the manufacturers are
using the home products. A reduction
in the tariff ON wool need not be seri-
ously feared, for the farmers of the
great west are too much interested not
to send an united protest to their rep
resentatives in congress, were such leg
i~slation contemplated. This was well
illustrated last year, when Fernando
Woods ways and means committee re-
ported u bill reducing the tariffs. It
is said that every representative from a
wool growing district, received appeals
to oppose the reduction OF the duty on
wool, and the number of such mem.

The Bachelors Must Go

TO the Editor of The Leader:
have discovered the cause of the
laborer's o I am q man blessed
with a wife andtYs darling babes. My
salary is insufficient to support them
and myself in the princely manner I
would like; hence, a few days ago l ap-
preached my employer upon the subject
of increasing it. He pleaded that he
could not afford to do SO, as business
was not paying largely, and his expen-
SEES were nearly equal to his profits. 1
have a wife and six children, he said. 1
insisted that l must have more or leave.
He concluded to consider the matter
and report to me in a few days. 1
called it up again yesterday, when he
told me that he could get an expert
enced man to take my place and do my
work for 20 per cent. less than I was
getting. He said the man was a young
man and unmarried, and so could afford
to work for less. Now was not this a
reflection on God? Who but God gave
me a wife and two babes? And did
God design that a young man should
take my place, or cut down my pay, and
thus take the bread from my family's
mouth? Neverl The bachelors are
impoyerishing us by their labor and
competition. Now, sir, what shall we
dop They are here; we can't drive
them out, keep them out, or kill them
of; but We a prohibit their working
ut all, or at least we can prohibit their
working for less than SO per day, or
some proper sum. such as will support
a man and large family respectfully.
wish you would awaken the people
on this subject. They are fretting
about the Chinese, and the tariff, and
the next president, and the rebel
brigadiers In congress; but here is a
greater and more grievous matter lying
and gnawing at the very root of the ex-
istence of the family, and yet no voice
has been raised against that horror of
horrors, the Industrious unmarried
man. CITIZEN.
