THE PHILOSOPHY OF THINKING.

The only man who has no time is the man
of leisure; although mans having plenty OF
everything belonging to this world seems
hardly sufficient reason for having no time.
The truth is there is nothing in life so little
INDUCED in as thinking. Busy people never
think, which we are aware is exactly the re-
verse of what is usually supposed. But no
one Can attend properly to two things at once,
and as thinking is the profoundest and most
absolute business in life, busy people do not
follow it. Only men of leisure have the time;
and thus it is that the man of leisure, being
occupied with thought, is more occupied than
other men, and has no time to himself. He
has not, as others, choice between work and
idleness, because he is under control of the
influence that keeps him busy.
The special application of the mental pow
ers to the pursuits of life is precisely the same
as the application of the hands, and it is not
| thinking. If a man SO employed forgets HIM
self, and ''gets to thinking" he considers that
he has lost valuable time, and his worldly wis
dom will guard him against the recurrence Of
such an accident.
When man acquires leisure; when he is
retired from business, having removed the
necessity for those occupations by which life
is supported, he will make business for him
self, either out of his vanities and vices, or by
acquiring habits of thought. If he takes
thinking for his business, he will pursue it with
great advantage to himself, and perhaps to the
world.
AS we desire not to seem making paradoxes
we will explain our meaning of thought.
There is regal power in thought under which
the world moves, but it is not that which popu-
ates the novelties of fashionable society.
The thought that attaches to the grand prin-
ciples by which the universe is moved is that
which gives a man work to do, and subjects
him to control more absolute than any con-
ventional rules.
The universe is divided into causes and ef-
fects, or laws and phenomena. Thought has
to do with causes or laws only, whose sphere
constitutes wisdom; and for the sciences Of
phenomena, or effects, which belong to the
plane of knowledge, the mind acquires them
by observation; by the same application Of
the mental powers as is made of the hands in
industrial labor. Thought is the active, con-
trolling agent of the work of creation. What
ever mind it enters upon, and occupies, it
subjects to its controlling influences; thus as
signing the business of such mind, and leav-
ing its leisure to accident or chance. That
which we commonly call thought is itself SUBJ
jec,ive and under mental control, and is mere
ly the application of the mental powers to
phenomenal uses.

The preliminary surveys for the proposed
reclamation of the Zuydeer Zee have been fin
ished, and the work of building the walls will
soon begin. A dixie about twenty-four and a
halt miles in length will be constructed of
sand and faced with clay, reaching sixteen feet
above the level of the sea, which will make it
about six and half feet above the highest
tide The thickness of the dixie will be such
as 10 enable it to resist the heaviest seas.
Operations will begin at four different points,
and the calculation is to have it completed in
from seven to ten years, at a cost of SAT, 600,
600.

A bare-headed man pursued bya policeman
rushed on board a schooner at New York
wharf on Sunday evening. The fugitive
climbed the main-mast like monkey, and the
officer went aloft also. Before the fugitive
could be reached, however, he seized wire
rope stretched between the two masts and was
soon far away from the officer, who had TO
give up and leave the schooner. as she was
ready to sail. The fugitive was William Irwin,
who was wanted on a charge of assault.

The art of brewing good beer is making
fast progress in Japan. For number of
years the people have contented themselves
with an imported article, but they afterwards
found they could make better beer themselves,
and so have undertaken the task. I he in
dustry has already become considerable one,
the largest two establishments being known
respectively as the Shimidyuya Shokwai and
the Hakkosha breweries. The beer they
turn out is said to be far more wholesome
than the foreign article. and to be excellent in
its taste The sale is fast increasing.

Receipts and Expenses.

The expenses Of this government ac-
cording to its population are less than
those Of any other in the civilized world.
It cost but 35.07 per capita of our popuIa-
ton last year to pay the expenses Of the
government. Some idea Of the vast ex-
tent of the business operations necessary
to carry on the government-to collect
the means and disburse the money needed
70 pay it, expenses-may be gained when
It II known that the actual receipts at the
government Treasury last year were
e28S, O00, 900 and the actual disbursements
were e260. 712 1857 and when it is stated
that nearly five hundred millions of money
has been collected in several years by the
Bureau Of Internal Revenue without the
loss Of dollarto the government. either by
fraud or accident it will be seen what per-
feet machine, as well as vast one, it is.
A recent compilation has been made
showing the receipts and expenses per
capita OF our population during the last
twenty years. which will be found not
only interesting reading but worthy of
preservation. 1t Is as follows:

WASHINGTON, June 6.
Wilson, today, began the opening argu-
ment for the defence in the star route cases.
He said that for many months the newspap-
ers of the county had teemed with articles
denunciatory of the defendants, and the case
had been tried by these newspapers on the
most exparte statements, and he wanted the
jury to try and dismiss from their minds any
impressions left by reading these articles,
and try the case solely on the evidence pre-
scented. The facts of the record had been
distorted and statements made totally at vari-
ance with the TRUTH for the purpose of in
fuencing the minds of the jury. He asked
the jury to consider well his statements :;
compare them with those of the prosecution
and see if the inference he drew were the
true one. He then at great length gave sta
tistics, methods of advertising and letting of
contracts
After some discussion as to the length of
time to be allowed for the opening argumen is
it was arranged that the council for the other
defendants would also be heard in the clients
behalf. Adjourned until tomorrow when
Wilson will continue his argument

In regard to the attitude of the demo-
Gratis in recent contested election cases the
Philadelphia Press says; They have stood
forth As the champions Of fraud at the bal
lot-box and as the marplots of revolution
In the House. On the merits of the con-
tested cases they have brazenly disregard
ed the most conclusive evidence, and have
unblushingly attempted to keep in their
seats men who were VIGOROUSLY placed
there by the most shameless mockery of
elections. On the method of procedure
they have undertaken TO resist the power
Of the House to exercise the rightful
authority Of the majority and have
descended to the level Of wanton obstruc-
tionists. They kept the House By nnjusti-
fable filibustering in deadlock day after
day; they compelled it to change its rules
In order to thwart their obstructive policy !;
they refused to vote and attempted in
every contest to deprive the House of a
quorum; In short. for mere partisan pur-
poses, In defiance of reason and right. they
pursued course which was essentially
revolutionary.
This prolonged struggle shows that the
democratic party has not changed in
character or in impulse. 1t furnishes
fresh evidence that it cannot safely be
trusted with power, and presents the
strongest appeal for republican success in
the coming Congressional elections.
Democratic stupidity makes republican
argument.

R.m.Ykable Conscience.

1t is a matter of journalistic record. that
some years since, a schooner set sail from
Baltimore, having on board crew of thirteen
men. BY a most singular freak of nature, the
entire force was attacked by skin disease,
which manifested itself in large liberated
sores on the arms and hands, wholly incapsci-
tating the men from duty. The result was
that the vessel was towed back to the city
where the men were placed in the hospital.
Moral! Had Swaynes Ointment for skin
disease, been used in the first place, the crew
would have recovered in from II to 48 hours.
