Proverbs About Rain.

When there is unusual clearness in the
atmosphere, and objects are seen very
distinctly. there will probably be rain.
When clouds are gathering toward the
sun at setting. with rosy hue, they fore
tell rain.
Evening gray and morning red,
Put on your hat, or you'S wet your head
If rain commences before day, it will
stop before a. m.; il it begins about
noon, it will continue through the after
noon: if not till p, NJ, it will rain
through the night; if it clears off in the
night. it will rain the next day.
If it rains before seven,
1t will clear before eleven
If it rains before sunrise, EXPECT a fair
afternoon. If it rains when the sun
shines, it will rain the next day. If
clouds appear suddenly in the south, ex-
pect rain.
Rain from the south prevents the drouth,
But rain from the west is always best
When rain comes from the west, it will
not continue long. If rain falls during
an east wind, it will continue a full day.
If an assemblage cf small clouds spread
out or become thicker or darker, expect
rain. Small inky clouds foretell rain.
Dark clouds in the west at sunrise indi-
cate rain on that day. If the sky after
fine weather becomes heavy with small
clouds, expect rain.-Boston journal.

THANKSGIVING.
AYEAR FULL OF BLESSING.

Governor Foraker has issued the fol

pie of Ohio, to devote one day to thanks
giving for the manifold blessings they
enjoyed during the past year:

In your converse with the world, be
ever careful. for the sake of peace, to
speak i'll of no one, to treat your known
enemy with civility, and to shut your
ears against evil reports of all kinds.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1889-11-21

WHEN vicious habits have been so
long INDUCED as to get from under the
control of reason they obtain despotic
power; no longer pleading for gratifca-
tion in the hesitating language of de-
pendents, but demanding it.

A DUCTILE metal loses in solidity
what it gains by extension. That mode
of expression which conveys our ideas
of things in the fewest words is the
most perfect; even as the ground which,
from the smallest space produces the
greatest quantity of the necessaries OF
life, is most profitable.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1889-11-21

LEARN the art, to be preferred before
all others, of being happy when alone
which consists in the encouragement of
good hopes and rational pursuits, in
leading an industrious life, and in hav-
ing constantly before you some object
of attainment.

PHILOSOPHERS, more intent on the ac-
quisition of knowledge than of moral
improvement, are like a person who
uses the telescope for the discovery of
distant objects, more than the micro
scope, which is adapted to those within
his reach; they seek that satisfaction
abroad, which after all, is only to be
found at home.

IT is better to be suspected when we
are innocent, than to pass unsuspected
when are guilty. Virtue is fortress
which suspicion may assail; but it must
be the fault of the garrison, if the enemy
enter and raise tumult; yet though IN
just suspicion be unworthy of notice, its
attacks may serve to excite care, and
prevent the assailant taking us by sur
prise.
THE thirst after knowledge, which
distinguishes the rational from the brute
creation, is allowed to be satisfactory
proof of the Immortality of the soul; and
when it is subjected to the instruction of
Divine wisdom, having truth for its OBJ
ject, it is the means whereby the mind
becomes convinced of the true end of
our being in the world ,.and of enlarging
its capacity for the felicity of the next
A MAN under false biases may Judge
amiss, and palliate or excuse an act of
injustice in himself toward others; vet
when others do precisely the same thing
to him, he finds little difficulty in seeing
and pronouncing it to be wrong And
why is he so much clearer sighted in the
latter than in the former case, but be-
cause the distractions that blinded his
judgment are removed?
AMUSEMENT is necessary to complete
home life. Remember its evenings are
to be the safeguard of the young folks
from wishing to wander; its innocent
gaieties are to be the brightest picture
in the children's memory forever after.
There is one thing that perhaps
the chief thing-to be added to our ideal
home: The sweetness of it is the sweet
ness of the woman who is the reigning
spirit. She does more than reign, and
she is more to it than queen to king
dom. In the "sweet home" there is al
ways woman who is its center and its
soul. A great deal, if not everything,
depends on her.

RECoAMENDAToRY encomiums on the
grace of humility are sometimes very
consolatory and instructive, but there
seems to be no subject we meddle with
on which we are more liable to err in
judgment than on this. He who recon-
mends humility to another, if he does
it with propriety, must possess greater
degree than the person he addresses.

WERE men but convinced, that the
malevolence they feel is altogether theiI
own, and that if it were once subdued
in themselves, the malevolence of Others
could not essentially harm them; they
might see the absurdity of expecting to
overcome evil by evil, and cease from
worrying and destroying each other.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1889-11-21

SLANDERERs will sooner discover
many spots on the garments of Others
than on their own; but the cruel disposi-
tion they indulge generally produces its
own punishment by drawing the scrutini-
zing eyes of others upon themselves, and
exposing faults which otherwise might
have escaped detection.

CONCERNING SURVEYS.
How the Present Contract system can he
Improved.

At a recent meeting Of the Montana
Society of Civil Engineers, Col. De-
Lacy read very interesting paper,
giving the history of the existing sys-
TEN Of surveys from its inception be-
fore the revolution, following II down
TO the present time. Condemning the
contract system which prevails now in
all government work, for the reason
that so many incompetent surveys are
employed under it, he suggested an
improvement:
"This whole system, socumbersome so
and expensive without yielding ade-
quate returns, might readily be re-
placed by another by which the gov.
eminent might obtain better surveys,
better knowledge Of the country and
its resources, aud in which the survey
or would have no temptation TO slight
his work, but on the contrary every
inducement to perform it perfectly.
This system would be IA follows:
When the appropriation has been
made 10y congress and the surveyor
general has been notified o. the sum
apportioned 10 his district, LET him be
authorized 10 employ competent sur,
veyore by the month TO perform the
work, the men to employ their own
assistants, with the approval OF the
