Habit,

What a tyrant is habit. We
all bow to his rule, whether it
be for good or evil, and know
ing this, why not cultivate
those practices that will make
us worthier to be respected,
Tighten our labors and gladden.
our hearts?
Rising early is all a matter of
habit. One can snooze away
through the sweet summer
mornings and awake when the
dew is off the grass, the first
low note of the bird changed to
the wide awake trill Of the
glorious noon tide and all earth
bathed in the fulness of a day
that is in its prime, or one can
spring out of bed and breathe
in the beauty of the early dawn
and revel in those sights and
sounds that belong to q half
awakened world.
1t may be very hard at first
to force ones self from the
comfortable bed at six instead
of nine or ten, but the habit
once established will prove one
of the rarest delights to the
love of natures charms as well
as a revelation in the amount of
work one can accomplish when
the brain is fresh and the body
invigorated with sound sleep.
The habit of saving becomes
after q while the most exciting
game one can play. To see the
| pennies grow to dollars is a de-
light that need not belong to a
miser to make it enjoyable.
The habit of speaking i'll of
no man is the best of all, for it
not only enriches its possessor
but brightens the life of all
about him or her. The man
or woman who positively re-
fuses to say anything unless
they speak well Of their neigh
bors are not going to get into
many scrapes, even in this
mischief-making, topsy-turyy
world Of ours. If we are crea-
lures Of habit, let us be the
agents Of a thoroughly respecta-
BILE master, one whose precepts
will teach US no evil, and let us
religiously eschew those modes

Training and Teaching.

Many persons think the
terms training and teaching
are synonymous, but there is a
wide difference in the meaning
of the two words. We teach
when we would iinpart knowl-
edge; we train when we, would
give skill and ease in execution.
Our habits are all formed by
training though we may teach
the child forever that those
habits are pernicious, and often
end in misery and ruin. We
form, develop and control a
child's personal faculties and
powers by trainink kbut when
we teach a child we must be in
possession of something beyond
what he naturally claims as his
own. -
We teach a child the benefits
of industry, energy and study
and we train him into habits of
industry and study; but train
ing and teaching must 60 hand
in hand in the work of educa-
tion if we would secure success
in such an undertaking.
Before we feel ourselves fully
capable to begin the education
of a child, we should under
stand the terms thoroughly and
know that training is the first
work and must be commenced
as soon as a child's emotional
nature is awakened. The little
one can be trained into almost
any habit, and by injudicious
management it may give the
nurse or parent an infinite
amount of trouble.
Children can be trained to a
cradle or a bed, to a light or a
dark room, to being fed at regu-
lar intervals, and during all
this process they are perfectly
ignorant of the importance Of
system or regularity in all these
things. They can be trained
to cry for what they desire
when they are too young to be
taught the impropriety of such
indulgence.
The ancient Hebrews began
the training of a child almost
from its birth, and Abraham
and Solomon attached the
highest Importance to early
training, as the well known
proverb of the latter will attest.
The training of a child does
not alter his nature, but it does
control the manner of giving
expression to such nature. The
training of a child does not
give him a new and distinct
character as to repress and
even subdue evil thoughts and
passions 50 that there will be
given to that character a new
aspect and accomplish more in
Its establishment for good than
all the teaching of the schools.
"Train up q child in the way
he should go, and when he is
old he win not depart from it. y
How much wholesome and
wise counsel is condensed in
this brief admonition, and what
a blessing to the world, were il
universally adopted.

A Great Enterprise.

81 Louis Age Of Steel.
Among the greatest enter
prises in modern times is the at.
tempt to harness the water pow
er of Niagara to the wheels of
industry. Few people are a.
ware of the stupendous and diff
ficult nature Of this undertak-
ing, or of the issues involved in
it's proposed accomplishment.
The horse power devolved at the
Falls is said to be equal to all
the steam power at present used
in the world, and a practical
appropriation of but a marginal
fraction of this power will DIS
tribute it's motor power over i'm
mense areas and to remote dis
tances. The project, as so far
satisfactorily carried out, in
cludes the digging of a canal
1900 feet long, at right angles
to the river, at something more
than a mile above the falls. A
vertical shaft 140 feet deep is
being sunk, and from the lower
level a tunnel, 2s feet high, IS
feet wide, and 600 feet long,
has been carried at a slope of I
feet per 1000, to debouch at the
foot of the bluffs below the Falls
This tunnel is being lined with
four courses of bricks, the work
progressing at the rate 100, 900
bricks per day. Hydraulic prob
lens have been dealt with by
leading engineers, both home
and foreign, and the electric
part of the work has been laid
out by the best experts and
practical men. Parts of the
power is to be used in factories
built directly over shafts, and
also on land owned by the COM
pany, which has a perpetual
right to use this power over
five miles of river frontage.
Railways will connect with the
system of factories, the power
of one being furnished by an
electric locomotive. Thirty acres
of land have been reclaimed
from the river, and a project
formulated of deepening the
stream alongside of the COM
pany's wharves. The right of
making a second tunnel under
the Falls has been secured by
the franchises of property own
ers. All these phases of a stu
pendous enterprise simply an
tedate the founding of a manu-
featuring city or centre, Of
which some Of the streets are
already laid out. On the Cana
dian side an exclusive right to
Use land in Victoria Park has
been secured for one hundred
years, by which a branch of
the river going around Cedar
Island car carry sufficient wat
er to utilize $50, 900 horse power,
while the tunnel from the bot.
tom of the shaft to the base of
the fall will not exceed 500 feet
in length. The plans, so far as
carried out, have operated at a
surprisingly low cost, while the
energy and foresight of the di-
rectors have insured a steady
and continuous progress, with
out relapses or failures in the
original designs. The compile
tion of this enterprise will be
one of the wonders of modern
engineering skill, as the Nj
agara Falls are among the won-
ders of nature.

JREIAM NORTH CAROLINA WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER a. 1892
Thos. B. Longs Record, /,
Asheyille Citizen.

For several weeks past pub
LEGATION has been going the
rounds Of the State press to the
effect that Thomas B. Long,
nominee Of the Peoples party
for auditor, while agent for the
North Carolina railroad at
Salisbury from August, S68, to
October, 1869, had proved a de-
faulter to the tune of several
thousand dollars. The Citizen
wished to do no injustice to any
one, and at the same time de-
sired to be faithful to the people
of the State in warning them
against at least a possible dam
ger. The Clerk of the Superior
court of Alamance county,
where an action was alleged to
have been prosecuted by the
railroad company for the recov-
cry of the alleged shortage, /"
was written to for a certified
copy of the record in the .ac-
tion. TWAS promptly forward
ed.
There is much Of the record
which is Of little Importance or
interest to the public, and we
therefore print only the COM
plants and the judgement of
the court. The full record can
be inspected at the Citizen of
flee.
The answer contains a gener-
al denial of all the allegations
of the complaint, but from the
judgement of the court it ap-
pears that the allegations Of
the complaint were fully sub
stantiated.
From the record it also ap-
pears that "Col." Long held
the position of agent for the
railroad only for one year, one
month and two days, and within
that short period misappropri-
ated five thousand nine hum
dred and fifty-one and ninety
four one hundrsdths dollars of
the railroads money. The
question inevitably suggests
itself, "What might not such a
man accomplish in four years
as Auditor Of the State Of North
Carolina!"
1t must be remembered, too,
that for a number of years since
the rendition of this judgment
the Colonel" has held at a
high salary an important office
under the Federal government,
bestowed upon him by the Re-
publican party, and yet not one
dollar of this high salary has
he ever applied to the payment
Of this judgement. And this is
the man who has been going
over the country for the last
four years preaching reform"
abusing honest men and de-
nouncing one of the best, clean
est, cheapest and most efficient
State governments that has
ever existed in the history of
human society,"!
Go along, "Col." Long, and
pay back TO the railroad that
sum of five thousand, nine
hundred and fifty-one and
ninety-four one hundreths dol
lars which you have so long
withheld, and then you may
come with some little degree of
plausibility to teach reform and
honesty TO other people.
