Culture and Money Getting.


man may get ever SO much culture
and never get rich and man may get
ever SO rich and never achieve culture
enough to speak polite English, or know
good poetry from bad. Now, a money!
maker who has no culture is liable to be
hard put to it to get his moneys worth
out of life and the upshot OF his embar-
easements usually is, that not being fitted
by education to enjoy the things that give
pleasure to cultivated minds, he either
takes up with less innocent amusements,
or else sticks to business because it is the
only thing he likes to do. When the
money has been made in business of
large speculative possibilities, there are
disadvantages about going on, merely for
amusement, after one has won enough.
Many men could speak eloquently Of the
disadvantages OF being driven by defec.
tive culture to buy and sell wheat for &C.

Possible Diversion for the Gar.

AS Artemus Ward remarked of his
kangaroo, Colonel Elliott F. Shepard is
ian amoosin little cuss," not only di-
verting in himself, but the cause of
much innocent diversion among others.
The suggestion of his name in connec-
ton with the Russian mission has sent
a wave of hilarity all over the country,

that, with Shepard to laugh at, the car
would forget the cares of state and take
on flesh as never before.-St. Paul Pho

mitted to the Union dispute arose over
the title to Boone's land, and the case was
decided against him. He then, in I795, re-
moved to Missouri, obtained grant OF
5000 acres from the Spanish government
there, and mt once took possession on the
extreme outpost of civilization. France
obtained the country and broke the chain
of title. The United States next came into
possession, and Boone's Spanish grant was
pronounced invalid.
The indignation of the country was
reused, and through the action of Ken
tucky's representatives the United States
patented to Boone $50 acres. One good
sized farm he sold to William Casbon, who
sold in turn to Richard Watson, who lives
on the farm and hns the deeds. Boone's

same way he had lost his Kentucky land.
