Satan's mad and I'm glad,
little more faith in Jesus;
He'll miss that soul he thought he had,
little more faith in Jesus.
It's all want,

little more faith in Jesus.
Oh, stand back, Satan, let me by,
A little more faith in Jesus;
must 90 by, will go by,

SILK manufacturing is destined to
become leading industry in Pennsyl-
vania. There are very many localities
in the State where these and similar
factories could be established, for the
reason that in our rural districts there
are populations which do not have as
much employment as they are desirous
of securing. This surplus labor could
be had at very reasonable wages, and
is of a character much more staple than
the turbulent elements massed within
and near the cities of the first and sec
ond class A very little study of these
facts will convice capitalists of the
practical advantages to be derived
from seeking regions such as we refer
to, for the establishment of their enter
prises

A druggist in Bangor, Maine, was re-
Gently aroused from his sleep late at
night by man who wanted little
brandy for his wife, who was very i'll,
and might die if relief was not quickly
afforded. After hesitating moment,
in fear of the penalty, the druggists
prey Overcame his prudence, and he
gave the fellow a small quantity Of
brandy. Next morning he was arrested
for the violation of the law regulating
the sale of liquor. The distressed hus-
band of the night before had bloOmed

A GREATLY increased demand of NUT
ton from America, for the consumption
of England, is likely to eDsue this
year. In consequence of the continued
cold and wet weather of the past sea-
son, foot and liver rot have been very
destructive to sheep there. The Eng
lish papers report them as dying off by
thousands, whole focks becoming ex-
tinct. In seven Of the Southern coun-
ties, where upwards of 1900, 900
sheep have been kept, it is feared
scarcely oDe-fourth of them will be
saved In some instances, after butcher
ing sheep which it was supposed
would be passable mutton, the inner
part Of the carcass was found rotten
and uneatable, and the only thing
saved of any value was the pelt. The
various breeds Of Down sheep are the
best for us to breed for the English
market; for they are not only the
most salable, bat the most profitable

M. DE LEssEPs is rapid traveller.
He certainly goes ahead Of Gen. Grant
in the celerity Of his locomotion. 1t
would not take long to NOW all the
grass that has grown under his feet
since he landed on these shores
hardly two months ago. Since then he
has visited every part Of the continent
travelling nearly 5000 mile. He has
Undergone the inhiction Of forty public
and other formerly-tendered dinners !:
he has made more than score Of set
speeches and shaken hand, according to
the specially American fashion, with
IL, 900 people, more or less. We have
have heard of him, in bewildering
quick succession, at New York, Wash
ington st. Louis, San Francisco, Chi
cago and Boston. Besides all this
swinging around the circle he has ex-
amined the route Of his proposed inter
oceanic canal and gotten an idea Of the
physical and political obstacles to be
surmounted in order to make it an ac-
complished fact Last Thursday he
left on his return to Europe. He prom
ises TO visit ns again when the connect
ing link between South America is
broken by his colossal ditch. He may
| live TO see the consummation Of his en-
terprise for, though an old man in the
sense Of having lived a good many
years, he has vast fund Of vigorous
vitality, and has evidently no notion
of dying soon.
