Wealth and How to Obtain it
. ??
The Following remark on the
i above subject, which we take from
I tho Manufacturer and Builder, we
oommend to our readers:
1 Thero is one important practical
I truth connected with this subject, I
and ono t.liaf. pnn nomp 1>n t? I

often, as upon it depends tlic comfort
of tho great mass of our people.
It is this: that in order to he
wealthy, that is, to have such a competence
as securcs independence
aud comfort, men must save.
"Would that it might he written a
hundred times upon this page, and
each ouo of the hundred read a
hundred times. To save, is the
practical point of the subject, and
the one that should never be insisted
on. It matters not what may
be tho theoiy of political economists
as to wealth and the means
of production, uulcss it he one
which can be practiced by the
great mass of the laboring peoplo.
The products of labor or wealth
are constantly chauging, constantly
being consumed in use, and must
be constantly renewed: therefore
man may as well accept, without a
murmur, the fact that li. must lead
a life of labor, auil not of play. It
is unwise, and in the main useless
for the majority of the active men
of to-Jay to seek for large fortunes,
that is to become millionarieB, simply
because it is impossible. But
on the other hand, there is no reasons
why 6ur industrious, laborers,
of all sorts, should not become
possessed of sufficient for comfort.
The great trouble lies in the fact
that young men do not begin to
8?ve. while they are young. All
who will begin early by saving will
find a happy surprise in a few
years, in the verification of the
Scotchman's proverb, that "many a
little makc3 a micklc." Tut two
dollars in the savings bank at the
age of twenty and continue to do
so each week until fifty, and there
will be a snug little fortune for man
and wife ; fail to do this, and there
will be nothing. Begin by small
savings rather than not begin at all,,
for the finest showers often begia
with a.; few gentle 4c?P3v Ono
great cause of the poverty to-day is,
the failure of common people to
appreciate small things. They feel
that if they cannot save large sums
they will not save anything. They
do not rcallize how a daily addition
be it ever so small, will soon make
a large pile. If the young men
and young women of to-day will
only begin now, to save a little
from their earnings, and plant it
in the soil of some good savings
bank, and weekly or monthly add
their mite, tliey will wear a happy
smile of competence and independence
when thay reach middle life.
Not only the pilo will itself increase
but the desire and the ability to
increase it will also grow. Let
clerk and tradesman, laborer and
artisan, make now and at once, a
beginning. Store up some of j-our
youthful force and vigor for future
contingency. Let children teach
their children to besrin earlv to save.
Begin at the fountain-hcRd to control
the stream of extravagance,
and the world will be easy. Choose
between poverty and riches. Let
our .youth -go on in habits ol extravagance
for fifty years to come,
as they have for fifty years past,
-and we shall see a nation of beggars,
with a moneyed .aristocracy.
Let/a generation of such, as save
in small sums be reared, and we
sh^he free from' "all want. Do
noi be ambitious for extravagant
fortun^ bi^tto seek tba? which is
the duty of every one' to obtain?
independence and a comfortable
home.?Wealth, and enough of it
is in reach of them all. It is obtainable
by one process, and by one
only?Saving."

A SHORT SERMON FOR MY
f STUDENTS.
BY n. G.: EASTMAN, POUailKISEPSIE'
N. Y.
To bo Praticed and Preached.
You arc tlio architects of your
own fortunes. Itcly upon your own
strength of body and soul. Take
for your star, iudustry, self-reliance,
faith and honesty; and inscribe on
your banner, luck is a fool, pluck
is a hero. Don't take too much
advice ; keep at the helm and steer
your^wn ship, and semeniber that
the great art of commanding is to
take a fair share of the work. Dou't
practice too much humility ; think
well of yourself?strike out?assume
your position. Put potatoes
in a cart over a rough road, and
small potatoes go to the bottom.
Rise above the envious and jealous.
Fire above the mark you inteud to
hit. Energy, invincible determina
iiuuj tviiu u iigui< utuurc, iuc iuu
levers that move the world. Don't
drink. Don't cliew. Don't smoke.
Don't swear. Don'tdeeeive. Don't
read novels. Be in earnest Be
self-reliant. Bo generous. Be
civil .Bead the papers. Advertise
your business. Keep your own counsels,
and superintend your own business.
Make money and do good
with it. Love your God and fellow-man.
Love truth and virtue.
Love your country and obey tlie
ian o.
Depend upon it, the great want
of this age is men. Men who are
not tor sale. Men who are honest,
sound from centre to circumference
?true to the heart's core. Men
who will condemn wrong in friend
or foe; in themselves as well as
others. Men whose consciences
are as steady as the needle to the
pole. Men who will stand for the
right if the heavens totter and the
earth reels. Men who can tell the
truth aud look the world and the
devil right in the eye. Men that
neither flag nor iliuch. Men in
whom the courage of everlasting
life runs still, deep, and strong.
Men who will not fail nor be dia
couraged till judgement be set in
the earth. Men who know their
places and iill theui. Men who
know their message and tell it.
Men who mind their own business.
Men who will not lie. Men who
are not too lazy to work, nor too
proud to be poor. Men who are
willing to eal^what they have earned,
and wear what they have paid
for.
How People Walk.
Observing persons move slowly;
their heads move alternately from
side to side, while tliPV nrMsmnol.
ly stop and turn around.
Careful persons lift their feet
high and place them down,, and
pick up some little obstruction aud
place it quietly by the side of the
way.
Calculating persons generally
walk with their hands in tbeir pockets
and tbeir heads slightly incliqjted.
Modest persons generally step
softly, for fear of being observed.
Timid persons often step off from
a sidewalk on meeting nnntVipr
always go around a stone instead
of stepjtog^ov*ri&' ,f% '. .v
Wide-awake persons ^'toe-out,"
and have a long swing to their
arms, while their heads swing about
miscellaneously. 1 - ' ?
Careless persons are forever stubbing
their toes. {
..Lazy persons scrape about loosely
with their heels, and are first on
one side of the walk,, and then on
the other. ,
Very strong minded persons have
theft toes^ir^ctly inf font Ofthem
and have a kiiid of stamp movement.

A Cheerful Wedding Party. i
Solemnity is as natural to Boston as t
to a mausoleum. The Commerciel Bui- {
letin, of that city, which lightens the i
facts of finance with occasional gleams j
of humor, is responsible for tho fol- j
, lowing account of a particularly cheer i
ful marriago which took place in that i
neighborhood lately : I
Xhoro is u "melancholy interest,, in i
u little afiuir that actually occurred I
not a thousand miles from Boston a i
short tinio since. A well-known clergyman
received an imperative summons
to bo in attendance to perform
tho "ceremony" at the residence of an
equally well-known undertaker, in tho
evening. . lie went accordingly, sup- (
posing, of course, that ho was to ac- ,
company tho man of grief to a liouso ,
of mourning, but was greatly disap- ,
o inted upon finding tbo houso (over (
tho shop) brilliantly lighted and filled
with guests, whom tho undertaker ^
proceeded to introduce as fellows: (
"This is my intended wife, sir, Miss ^
Crape. I shall marry her to-night, if j
you'll ofieiato." "Certainly," said tho ,
clergymau, somewhat amused; "and ,
those are your friends to witness tho
ceremony ?" looking around at the
crowded apartment. "Oh yes, you ^
kuow many of them?allow me?this (
is Mr.Boncs, sexton of 8t. Charles
Church." Mr. Bones rose and heaved ,
a hundred-dollar funeral sigh as he
bowed to the minister. "Mr. Mould, ,
Bcxtou of tho brick chapol." Mould, ,
who had a low-cut, whito vest, a largo
glossy whito shirt bosom aud collar, a
palo face and 6unken eye, which gave ,
tho appearance of being "laid out," replied
to the clergyman's greeting with (
tho usual sad shako of the head ho (
had'practised at funerals tho past
twenty years.
"This," said tho host, as an individ- (
ual came up on tip-toe, with downcast
gaze, as if afraid of disturbing
the silence of a grief-stricken family .
sitting in the front parlor at a funeral ,
"this is Mr. Black, tho undertaker ; I (
believe you've met before." Black (
bowed and inclined his head sidewaj's, ,
as if ho expected the minister to whis- ^
per some directions to him beforo pro- i
coeding with tho service.
"Allow me to make you acquainted
with Mr. Stone, the sculptor." (Stono (
gripped the minister's baud as ho ]
would a mallet. Ho was proprietor (
of "Stone's monumental work.") :
Then followed an introduction to the |
superintendents of two cemetaries, a |
plate engraver and others more or less
contractcd with tho grim business of
the host, who, after finishing intrOduc- ,
lions, announced himself ready for j
the marriage ceremony. 1

using this blackwalnut case for a table,
do you ?" Baid tho bridegroom, j
"It was too heavy to raovo ; bosidcs
it's too full of shrouds and caps wo t
don't want to tumble." j
The minister acquesced, and the
twain were duly united, after which (
cake, wiue and conversation pervaded
the company. Tho clergjman congratulated
the bridegroom upon his
bride. "Yes," replied the happy man <

man, getting a little chilly down along
his backbone in spito of hiwsolf, and 1
wishing to change the subject ho remarked.
"Any news to-day, Mr. i
Tre88ells?" "News, no?that is, yes. 1

' Well, they found him this morning i
in ten feet of water, and paving stone *
in his pockets." "Indeed l\ "Yes?
we've got him up stairs, if you'd like 1
to see him 1"
Not knowing what would come t
next, tho clergyman thought best to <
take his departure, and did so with a *
grave demeanor suited to the occa- *

Tiie Failueb of this Cuban Ebv- i
oiitJTioN.?The Washington correspondent
of the Now York Herald, who '
has been on the ?ide of Cuba, writes
that ho has information fVom high of- }
ficial sources to the effect that the 1
Cuban revolution Lad proved an utter 1
failure. Ho say*: j

Aulomntio Telegraphy. 1
0
A telegraphic lino between Now '
York and "Washington, to be operated v
3ii Little' automatic system of tele- u
ijraphy, is now in process of construc- e
Lion, and iH at this season of the I
itrikoof telegrapic operators, a matter t
af general interest. Tbe lino is styled g
the "National Telegraph," and is ex- (
pected to be in operation by tho first "j.
of March ; tho poles have all been
placo at proper intervals, and aro being
rapidly put up. By Mr. Little's
system of telegraphy, it is expected
to cuable tho transmission of 200 *
words per minute, instead of twenty 11
words, which is now stated as the ca- I
pacity of a very expert operator un- v
ier tho Morso system. ?
Mr. D. II. Craig, formerly superin- i
Lendent of the New York Associated I
Press, is prominently connectcd with f
Lhe National Telegrpphic Com pany, I
and it is stated that Mr. George JR. jllicks,
the Agent of tho Associated j
Press at Chicago, has tested tho autornatic
system and reports that 200
words per minuto can bo transmitted .
on wire over a circuit of 2,000 miles
and that boys and girls can prepare c
the despatches at the rate of 800 r
words each per hour, as many being *
employed as are necessary. The f
method of operating the machine is I
thus doscribod by the inventor: "A r
ribbon of paper is perforated by a f
machine with characters it is propos- (
cd to transmit. The transmitting in- ?
strument is a magnetic engine or rnor- g
tar of the usual construction, with a ^
governor to keep its speed uniform, -j
The receivin 5 machine is essentially
the same. A ribbon or paper perfo
rated, is placed upon a roller, and the *
sngine ia set in motion by a two-cup
battery; a wheel with, a platinum 1
sdge or pen, constucted like a brush, ?
is made to prcs3 upon the paper, and r
:ho connection of the wires is such fi
Lhat in traversing the spaces punctuv- t
3d out of the paper ribbon, a current (
s sent upon tho line, while, when tra- :
versing the paper itself, the current is r
broken, the paper being anon-conduc;or.
At the receiving station a paper g
jhcmically prepared, and of a very
sensitive nature, is used, so that tho .
cast eurrcnt transmitted will, decom- 1
nosing the elements used in preparing '
.ho paper, have traced upon it in 1
jold, black characters, an exact fue t
imile of the characters perforated at a
.he transmitting station. o
Adduessinq Children.?J?o man
jught ever to address children unless
io Knows wimt bo is going to eaj',
iow ho is going to say it, and why ho e
a going to say it. j
1. Always uso tho simplest plainest g
words, monosyllables if possible. a
2. Never speak, without, liko the p
inehor, having a distinct oljcct in a
view.
3 Allow no side issues to divert you z
i*om tho object. In your attempt to c
japturo throe rabbits, by running first j
ifter one, then after tho second, and u
(till after the third you lose all. r
4. Never tell a story because of its ^
laving a langh in it; and, 0
t>. uo not taiK a long while and 8
hen ask a voto of fivo minutes more. n
Children are too polite to refuso you, j|
,hough your talk may greatly boro E
hem. q
6. Use enough of legitimate illus- n
^ration of anecdote to hold the atten- p
ion of the children, but be very care- a
ul it is appropriate, and has sense in f,
t. i
7. Watch the tones of your voice, q
Boys can see as quickly as an elocution- j,
st when you have goo6 from the uat- j
iral to the false, the falsetto, or the ieclamatory;
that it to say, they *
mow when you are "speaking vour
sieco," and they will at* once ~say to 6
themselves. "I can speak better s
than that myself." Then it is time g
"or you to sit down.
8. Never ask children for their attention,
nor allow everbqdy else to
isk it for yon ; for if you do, ten to
>ne tho children are not at fault, but
yourself. Say something to rivet at- l
mention, or atop!?Bt*t Words. 0

"Washington, January 17?2 P- b<
I.?The Senate received the House tl
Virginia bill last night. Trumbull w

igorous measures ; but what in the

)rake could not understand how
he Republican Senators had chan- fr

understand it. Carpenter wan- iu
ed to know what could be done si
vith Virginia, if she violated the ol
onditious proposed. Drake said

ul members in'the family of States, tl
Ie wanted Virginia to come with "V
he samo rights. Carpenter asked p
las Congress the right to force e<
:onstitution on Virginia? Sumner e:
esponded, unquestionably. Mor- w
on maintained the right of Con- ^
jress to impose any condition;
nany Senators, he said, believed u
hat if Virginia was admitted un- ^
ottered, loyal men would bo comcelled
to leave the State, and ter oism
would follow. If Virginia v
bllows the lead of Tennessee and S)
Georgia, Senators must meet the r
;torm of indignation from their con- 1<
ititucnts. IIowo favored the exac- n
ion of conditions. Scliurz said c
Drake's grip policv would nrovn n b

imnesty, whereby, he believed, the ?
Republicans could carry the South, v
md instanced the case of Longa
trcet, whose forgiveness, appoint- t<
nent and confirmation, and could ^
issure Warner that the people of C(
he South would show no liberality, p.
Cameron asserted that no Southern C1
senator now on the floor would be ti
e-elected. ti
There is much doubt on the o
treets and at the taverns, as to the
iltimate results. Early anmiesion

The news from Atlanta from our ?
pecial correspondent is unfavorable, b
iullock and Terry aro working to- Ci
;etlier in the interest of tho conspir- s]
cy to plunder the State and rob the 81
ieople of their rights. The strong ^
rm of the Military Satrap is thrust a
ii to wrest tho control of tho organi- 1?
auon 01 tue liouso from tho Demo- a
rats and Conservative Republicans. B'
loth houses have been adjourned a'
ntil Monday. In the meantimo Tcr- Ci
y is to appoint a Radical Commission b.
o inquire into the eligibility of Dem- 0
cratie members. As the House %v
tands now tho Radicals are in tbo ir
linority. But Terry intend to change
is status by declaring a sufficient 11
tumber of Conservatives ineligible, tl
?his will give the Radicals a working d
majority in both Houses. Tho pros- r>
ect looks gloomy. Bribery, fraud a
nd brute forco are in tho ascendency ^
or tho present at least, and Bullock, P
lacked by Terry and the Radical t<
Jongress, is in a fair way of succeed-1 ^

Preservation of Leather.?Tho
blowing valuable hints in regard to
jc preservation of leather we copy
om tho Shoe and Leather Reporter:
Tho extremo heat to which most
icu and women cxposo boots and
iocs during winter depi'ives leather
E*-its vitality, rendering it liablo to
peak and crack. When leather bomics
so warm as to givo off tho
nell of leather, it is signed. Closo
lbbcr shoes destroy the life of leathr.
All varnishes and blacking con
lining tlio properties of varnish,
loultl bo avoided.
Shoo leather is grejitly abased,
ersons know nothing or caro less
bout the kind of material UBed than
icy do about tho polish produced,
'itriol blacking is used until every
article of oil in the leather is destroyi.
To remedy this abuse, the lcathr
should be washed onco a month
'ith warm water; aud when about
alf dry, a coat of oil and tallow
liould bo applied and tho boots sot
side for a day or two. This will recw
tho elasticity and life in tho
jathor, and when thus used, upper
jather will seldom crack or break.
Don't wash harness Irf* water and
/itli soap. No harness is over bo
oiled that a damp npongo -will not
cmovo tho dirt. "NVhen harness
)scs its lustre and turns brown, which
lmost any leather will do alter long
xposuro to tho air, the harness should
e given a now coat of grain black.
5eforo using this grain-black, tho
rain surface should bo thoroughly
cashed with potash water until all
ho grease is killed, and, after tlio
pplieation of the grain-black, oil and
illow should be applied to the suricc.
This will not ouly "fasten tho
olor," but make tho leather fiosible.
[urness which is grained can bo
leaned with lccrosine, or spirits, or
npjiiuue, auu no narm will resuit if
lie parts affected are washed and
ilcd immcdiatel}' afterward.. r
