A Bachelor on Matrimony.

In late issue Vesta says: "For-
tunately, l am not married, and
doubly so for some farmers" /
like to see one outspoken thus. If
you know you can live happier and
a more useful life, do not be allured
into matrimony by anything but
love-pure love. Many are the un-
happy ones, dragging out misera-
BILE lives, lacking the firmness of
Vesta and being too hasty in that,
the most solemn step of life. To
make q happy union, courtship
should be of long duration, thus en-
abling the candidates to fully un-
derstapd each other, and then a sen
sible, observing person will have
a good idea whether "for better or
worse" If, then, they would OBJ
serve st. Paurs advise, so ought
you to love one another as you love
your own bodies" marriage would
not be a failure, feel sure.
1t is my opinion that some are
so constituted as to be more happy
while walking singly, all alone" "
than if they should leap into that,
to so many, unhappy deluge, from
whence the weary husband cannot
return. 1t is thus with the writer,
and friends. Wealth or power can't

"Blackguardism in Congress-
From the Newark Journal, ] oily 18th

fOiu bA-o NSn arm Wy AShus
This is the title to leader in the
New York Times to-day, relating tC
another scene which occurred il
the house of representatives yester
day. Our Jersey Lily" and oul
half-Jerseymen, Abram S. Hewitt
were the chief actors. Mr.. Robson
made a speech week ago. When
Mr.. Hewitt saw the report Of it in
the Congressional Record, he found
that Mr.. Robeson had inserted in il
passage which was not spoken in
the house, which was untruthful in
statement, and, if uttered, would
not have been allowed to go unre-
futed and unrebuked Mr., Hewitt
justly complained of this yesterday,
and asked the speaker to have it
suppressed. OF course Robeson's s
tool in the chair would not do that
without consulting his boss, and,
likewise, of course, the boss would
not permit anything Of the sort
Others did the same thing, was the
defense. The discussion continued
as follows:
Mr.. Hewitt said that the gentle
man sought to evade the only issue
that there was in the matter, This
issue was that the gentleman had
deliberately inserted in the Record
a sentence attacking him personally
which the gentleman had not cour
age or manliness to utter on the floor
and that under cover of the Record,
supposing that it might escape
notice, he had made a personal at
tack which he would not have dared
to make on the floor in the regular
course of debate. The gentleman
now said that he was willing 30 sub
stitute some other word for the
word s'false."
Mr.. Robeson-I take that back
after the remark of the gentleman.
Mr.. Hewitt-Then the gentleman
charges las l understand it) false
hood When a man has been
charged on the floor of the house, by
Il member responsible for what he
says, with, being a thief, liar and
a periurer, and when he takes no
action to have that struck from the
Record and does not seek to hold
the author of that language to any
account, then it seems to me that
anything which he may say after
that, in the face of gentlemen and
in the face of this country, is simply
the object of utter and base con
tempt. Applause from the demo
cratic benches and contemptuous
exclamations from the republican
side ! understand the gentleman
now to assume the responsibility
for the acts of Observation-Disclosures, and
as he does so, then l say that every
word which | uttered, as to these
contracts being conceived in iniqui-
ty and born in sin and that they
were corrupt, may be applied to the
gentleman and taken as the charges
which l make against him. Ileave
the gentleman to get out OF the dis
agreeable predioament which he has
made for himself
Mr.. Robeson,.My position may
be disagreeable to the gentleman,
but it does not trouble me.
Finding himself reduced to a CON
temptible position ON the main
question, Robeson fell back on what
the Times refers to as a blackguard
attack on the private, personal and
political character of Mr.. Hewitt.

Alexandria after the Bombardment.
London Daily News

ALEXANDRIA, July ID have
just concluded q thorough examina-
ton of the present aspect of the
town, and can only convey a faint
impression OF the daily increasing
destruction. In my opinion at least
one-h half of the European portion of
the town is destroyed, not counting
the cotton and wheat warehouses,
or the extreme suburbs. Strange to
say, not one bank has been burnt
or seriously pillaged. These build
ings were known to be strong, and
the managers had taken excellent
precautions. The courts, the club,
the Bourse, and the Eastern Tele-
graph building are saved, although
they were so surrounded by the fire
that they were at first reported
burnt. They probably owed much
to the vigilance of old servants.

cannot speak too highly of the de
votion of the staff Of the Christian
Charity Sisters. In addition tc

High Prices.

The most favorable sign Of the
times to the farmer are the present
high prices of all classes Of farm
products. They show the demand
is steadily on the increase, and
that overstocking the market is
most unlikely occurrence. Never in
the history of the United States has
the wheat and potato crop been so
unexceptionally abundant, yet the
prices for both are, if not equal to
those in famine years, represent a
handsome income upon the invest
ment, and it is safe to predict that
were the amounts of both crops
doubled no very great diminution
in prices would be noticeable, be
cause the consumption would in
crease in the same ratio. Large
crops bring large sums of money in
circulation, and the more of it the
better, as people will spend more
freely from a well than scantily
filed purse.
There are many CrOakers against
high prices; yet any country which
can raise an abundant supply of
wheat, corn, potatoes, cattle and
fruit for home consumption and a
surplus for export is in n far better
financial condition than where
prices rule low, and no demand
from the outside world. The more
money in circulation the better the
opportunity for every one getting
some of it; wages are higher under
| these circumstances, more buildings
are erected, manufacturers meet
with reader sale for their goods,
merchants receive more in commits
sions, and prosperity rcigns. A
community that is prosperous, and
in which money is known to exist
in quantities, always attracts
skilled laborers, artisans, mechan'
les, and capitalists. The one finds
suitably rewarded situations, and
the other a field for speculation
Such communities thrive and i'm
prove the most, farmers surround
themselves with all the comforts
aud luxuries of life, buy fine cattle
put up handsomes home, and edu
cate their children. Railroads
turnpikes, towns and villages grow
in importance as their services in
crease in demand, property en-
hances in value, and no one carei

Business.

If there be one word more than
another that embodies success ON
the farm it is earliness, and especi-
ally when combined with industry.
temperance and good Judgment in
managing affairs.
An American sage said: early
to bed and early to rise, makes a
man healthy and wealthy and wise"
Early is an important word in
the English language. 1t is the
early sun that ripens the corn and
all our garden vegetables; the early
bird that catches the worm: the
early truck that brings the money,
the early chicken that paws the
lpoulterer; the early swarm that
makes the honey; the early pig that
makes the pork; the early plowman
that pushes his work; the early
maid that holds her place, and
makes the thrifty housewife.
In fine, earliness, other things
equal, makes the difference be
tween success and failure on the
farm.

Jonas had his acre planted before
Jonathan was in the field, and Jo-
mas corn was in his cIib when Jon

1t illustrates fact. He who in

His pastures grow early. Ills har-
