"Wealth, and How to Obtain It Tbe-foU?wiogr remarks on the above subject, which we take from tho Manu? facturer and Builder, we commend to our readers? There is one important practical troth connected witbthis subject, and one that ear* never be told too often, as upon it depends the comfort of the great mass of our people. It is this: that in order to be wealthy, that is, to hare such a competence as secures independence and comfort, men must save. Would that it might bo written a hundred times upon this page, and each one of the hundred xead a hundred times. To save, is the practical point of the subject, and the one that should ever be insisted on. It matters not what may be the theory of political economists as to wealth and the means of production, unless it bo one which can be practiced by tho great mass of the laboring people. The products of labor,, or wealth, are constantly changing, constantly being consumed in use. and must be constantly renewed; therefore, man may as well accept, without a mur? mur, tho fact that he must lead a life of labor, and not of play. It is unwise, and, in the maiu, useless, for the majority of the*active men of to-day to seek for large fortunes,, that is, to become millionaires, simply because it is impossible. But en tbe other hand, there is no reason why our industrions laborers, of all sorts, should not become possessed of sufficient for comfort. The great trouble lies in tho iact that young men do not begin to save while they are young? All who will be? gin, early by saving' wftl find a happy sur? prise in a few years, in the verification of the Scotchman's proverb, that :tmany a little makes a mickle." Put 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 for? tune for a man and wife; fail to do this, and there will be nothing. Begin by small savings rather than not begin at aMr for the finest showers often"begin with a few gentle drops. One great cause of tho pov? erty of to-day is, tho failure of common people to appreciate small things. They feel that if they cannot save large 6nms they will not save anything. They do not realize how a daily addition, be it ever bo small, will soon make a large . pile. If the young men and young wo? men of to-day will only begin, and begin now, to save a little from their earnings, and plant it in the soil of some good sav? ings bank, and weekly or monthly add their mite, tbey will wear a happy smile of competence and independence when they reach middle life. Not only the pile w/ill 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 begin? ning. Store up some of your youthful force and vigor for fatare contingency. Let parents teach their children to begin -sarly to save. Begin at the fountain head to control the stream of extrava fance, and the work will be easy. Choose etween poverty and riches. Let our youth go on in habits of extravagance for fifty years to come, as they have for fifty years past, and we shall see a nation of keggar8i with a moneyed aristocracy.? X?t a generation of such as save in small sums be reared, and we shall be free from* -411 want. Do not be ambitious for ex? travagant fortunes, but to seek that which is the duty of every one to obtain?inde pendence and a corafortablo horn o.? Wealth, and enough of it, is within the reach of all. It is obtainable by one pro? cess, and bjr one only?saving." Home Industry*.?An exchange gets off the following wholesome advice, which coming as it does at this season, and chiming with our own we lay it before our readers. It is worthy of serious con? sideration, and those who adopt it will vouch for its entire truthfulness: Support home mechanics?home mills ?borne labor?home merchants?homo press?home artisans?home everything, and persons, as near as possible, in order to do your part in supporting and building up your everyday neighbor, place, county and State. Also patronize those who patronize your mechanics?who do not fail through your papers to keep their business before the people. It shows busi? ness?it shows a liberal spirit?it means to live and let live. When you find the latter kind of business men you find men , who will trade liberally with you?looking to both sides of the trade, instead of one. Try it, friends, and see if we are not in the main right. Caught Up.?The Lawrence (Kansas) Tribune tells the following story: "One 9f the newly elected members from Mar-1 shall county was recently a passenger over the- Central Branch railroad, and on this occasion the trairr was frequently de- j tained a few minutes by cattle appearing on the track. A drove was lazily crossing the road, and the engineer instantly ?whistled 'down brakes.' The train was quickly in motioa again, and everything went smoothly for perhaps half or three quarters of an hour, till another drove ap? proached the track and claimed the right of way, which was given them by the en ginecr,.who kept up a lively blowing.? Yhe member from Marshall was all the time listening, and in his usual dry way said: 'Well, I'll be cussed if we haven t ?aaght up with those) cattle again !.'" The Tendency to Cheapen Masonry. The following extract from the address of Bro.' Elisha S. Fitch, Grand Master of Kentucky, is applicable in its general fea? tures to tho craft in every jurisdiction: It is a lamentable fact that a too rapid multiplication of Lodges has tended only to cheapen Masonry, and this cheapening poiieyrln its turn, has tended only to les? sen its dignity ; to depreciate its compara? tive value and importance in the estima? tion of the world, and to render tho privi? leges of tho fraternity a matter of too oasy attainment, and therefore instead of the door of our mystic temple being closely tiled to all,, save tho worthy and well qualified, it is virtually thrown wido open, and thus invites an indiscriminate rush from the inquisitive populace with? out. This is indeed a sad and most de? plorable perversion of the original design of the institution and one which, as a Grand Lodge, we should not for a mo? ment tolerate much less in any way sus? tain or sanction. In view of the unpre? cedented popularity of the fraternity, it behooves us to be more vigilant and guar 'dect than, ever before. Otherwise, brethren, the pure and beau? tiful stream of Masonic philanthropy, , which" for ages past glided on in quiet majesty within its own appropriate chan? nel, bearing .on its bosom the richest ar? gosies of "good news and true," to glad? den and bless the wasted aud destitute portions of our moral domain, may be? come even in its fancied floodtide of pros? perity a wild and unmanageable torrent of popular passion and prejudice; over? flowing its ancient embankments, only to gather up in its destructive course the driftwood of our common humanity, and float upon its turbid wators the worthless wrecks of a former glory and splendor. Such a catastrophe is not more revolting than the danger is impending, and it oe comes all our Lodges, throughout the land, both grand and subordinate, to attend well to this vociferous alarm at tho outer door; to do all in their power to stay and direct the heady current of popular im? pulse, which is already set in and threat? ens to bear us away from our ancient moorings, and set us adrift without com? pass or plummet, upon the shoreless sea of expediency. It is tho manifest ten? dency of the times to popularize every? thing both in Church and State, and the same dangerous leaven is at work in our Masonic Lodtjes. Hence it is that we find such importunate and persistent appeals for new Lodges, not only in our cities and larger towns, but also in every village and hamlet, and at almost every cross? roads and wagon-track in the State, j These Lodges, if established, must se? cure a membership, and to accomplish this the more readily tho fees and ducii must bo reduced to the lowest possible rates, and if this vending of Masonry, in "cheap cash store" style, "at greatly reduced prices, with a view to roplcnish stock," does not accomplish the desired purpose, the next step by way of "extrordinary inducement" is to lower practically the standard of the qualifications- of candi? dates, until in sorao instances proselyting missionaries would seem to bo almost ready to "go into tho highways and hedges and compel them to come in." So true is this, indeed?to our shame .bo it said?that already in somo portions of our jurisdiction there is scarcely any man in the community who may not with perfect impunity petition a Masonic Lodge for admission. Our high standard of qualifi? cation fs practically lowered, not only by receiving into the Lodge thoso who are not worthy, but also, and perhaps more frequently, by retaining in our fellowship thoso who have becorao unworthy, who habitually and for year3 set in defianco . the preceptive teachings of the institu? tion, and have become offensivo to the moral sense, of tho general community in which they live. "Can such things be, And o'crcomc us like a summer's cloud, "Without our special wonder ?" Wo may rest assured that such demora? lization of our Lodges will do infinitely more to prejudice and degrade tho insti? tution, in the estimation of all thinking and sensible men, than all tho fanatical conventions of political clergymen which have met or may ever assemble for the purpose of Masonic misrepresentations and abuse,. This demoralization is indeed only tho fruitful cause and occasion of such conventions, and without it they would havo no stock in trade. Good Listeners.?Good listeners are scarce, almost as scarce as good talkers. A good listener is no egotist, has but a moderate opinion of himself, is possessed of a great desire for information on all kinds of subjects, and of a hundred other fine qualities. It is too much the general impression that listening is merely a neg? ative proceeding, but such is very far from being really the case. A perfectly inert person is not a good listener, any more than a bolster is. You require the recip? ient of your talk to manifest intelligence, to show interest, and what is more, to feel it. The fact is, that to listen well?as to do anything else well?is not easy. It is not easy even to listen well, as we observe notably in the conduct of bad actors and stage amateurs, who break down in this particular perhaps more often and more completely than in any other; you will see one of them listening?or rather not listening?to the mostthrilling'statcmcnts without being in the slightest degree affec? ted by what he hears, thinking all the time of his own speech which is coming pres? ently, or perhaps his silk stockings and trunk-hose, but not of tho murder of his wife-and family of children, wlibh is just being announced to him by a fortunate sur vivor among the last. It is difficult, then, even to appear to listen, whether on the stage or olf it; and an experienced talker will almost always know whether the per? son whom he is addressing is attending or not by the expression of his countenance. When a man stares wildly at you while you talk you may generally have yoos doubts whether he really understands what you are saying to htm ; and when he re? peats the last words of your sentence after you, in a soft tone of voice, you may be quite sure that be docs not. -? ? A paper in Indianapolis, Ind., pro? poses that hereafter instead of saying "lot us sing tho Doxology," tho minister shall say, "lot us put on ovorcoats, adjust our lnrs, slip on our gloves, grab our hats,, look to the Lord and bo dismissed.." Recipe for Editing a Newspaper. It is expected of an editor to write read? ily and fluently upon all snbjects. That is his trade. The" public pays him to think and to- discuss everything that con? cerns the interest of tho people. A groat many editors know how to write with grace and facility ; but many are deficient in knowing what to write about, and herein lies the difference between a suc? cessful editor and a failure. But notwith? standing an editor ma}' possess great ver? satility of talent and know how to write and what to write about, ho is sometimes puzzled aj to tho proper mode of treating his subject. In writing an obituary an editor knows that he must always say, "After life's fitful fever lie sleeps well," or that he is gone to "That bourne whence no traveler returns." If ho was a gay, jovial soul, he must say "Alas, poor Yorick!" If the subject should be the "late election ?our defoat," of courso the editor must oithcr commence or close his article with "Truth crushed to earth will rise again;" and threaten the victors who triumphed by "fraud," "deception," and '-intimida? tion" with tho scorn of an insulted people. If tho editor wjshes to describe a beauti? ful day cftor a storm, or poaco after strife, ho knows where to find tho ofton bor? rowed lines: "Now is the winter of our discontent Made glorious summer." The political sap rises in an editor when the buds begin to swell, the flowers to bloom, and the birds to sing, just as nat turally as the sap rises in gympson weeds and dog-fennel, and whenever a cold day makes its appearance tho world is sure to bo told that? * "Winter,fingering, chills the lap of May." Of any ball, meeting or merry-making, it is hopeloss to expect to read-they en? joyed themselves, or danced, or stayed late?oh, no ! straightforward language ?simple English?would neverdo. There was sure to have been "Tho feast of reason, and the flow of soul"? they "Tripped tho light fantastic toe," and stayed ttntil "The wee sma' hours ayant the twal." Of any festival, no matter what disa grceablo incidents occurred, or how poor? ly it was attended, wo read that "All went merry as a marriage bell," and that the people were crowded "Thick as leaves in Vallambrosa." An editor desiring to convey to his read? ers an idea of another's transparent af? fectations, gives him no trouble, but quotes the favorito distich : "Oh, wad some power the giftie gie us, To see oursels as ith'ers see us." If, perhaps with himself in view, he la? ments over obscure, unfostcred genius, he tells us, freshly, a3 if ho never before heard it? "Full many a flower is born to blush unseen." ?When ho describes eloquont writing, or alludes to love-letters, or even Valen? tines, ho must bring in those old friends of our youthful days "Thoughts that breathe, and words than burn." ?Memphis Appeal. -o A Few Scraps from Josh Billing's Allminax.?January 5th.

McCreery in the United States Senate, for the term commencing March 4th, 1871, is the son of Andrew Stevenson, a well known statesman of Virginia, and Speaker of the House of Representatives from 1828 to 1833. John W. Stevenson was born in Richmond, Va., and having graduated at the University of Virginia, read law, and in 1841 commenced 4he practice of his profession at Covmgton, Ky. From 1845 to 1847, be was a mem? ber of the Kentucky Legislature, and in 1845 was elected to the Constitutional Convention of Kentucky. He was a dele? gate to the Democratic National Conven? tion in 1848, 1852 and 1850 j was three times a candidate on the Electoral ticket, and was one of the three Revisors of the Civil and Criminal Code of Kentucky.? He was elected Representative to the Thirty-fifth and Thirty-sixth Congresses, serving irom 1S57 to 1861. In 1866, he was a delegate to the "National Union Convention^" held in Philadelphia, and in August, 1867, was elected Lieutenant-Gov? ernor of Kentucky, but succeeded to the acting Governorship, by the death of Gov? ernor John M. Helm, one week after his inauguration. In 1868, he was elected Governor for the unexpired term of three years. -O-! Tight Times.?We havo known this fellow, Times, for two and forty years, and duriug that entiro period ho has been tight. He is always tight. A man named Baldwin seems to have met him once in Alabama when he was flush; but as a rule, especially in Virginia, ho is invariably tight. During the war, he was on a tre? mendous "bust," and now he is almost as tight as he was then. Sometimes ho is called Hard Times for short. He is a well-meaning fellow, and at intervals doos his best to reform. But it is no use?he will get tight again. Ho has been get? ting worse for the last month or so, and is if possible tighter than ever. Indeed, ho is very tight. He is as tight as a drum?tight as a tick?tight as bricks? tight as the Emperor Titus when he took Jerusalem. He is really tight. People abuso tho poor creature, but what good docs that do? He is on a bender?on a tear?on a high old drunk. He is got the horrors?tho delirium triangles?ho sees snakes. Tho fact is, Times is in a bud way; he can't stand this much long or; he'll go up; it'll bo tho last of him; and we feel very sorry for him. Poor old Times ! Ho is powerful tight.?Native Virginian. r Incomprehensible.?There are three things supremely incomprehensible: Time, distance, and velocity. Of time wo are al waj's its possessors but never possess it. Tho past is gone, the present is going, tho future has not como to us. As for dis? tance,we may indeed gaze into its realms, but who can measure its profoundly but Him whom the"hcavenscannotconlain?" Science makes the brain reel as it sends down its sounding lines, but what they bring up is but sand grains from the fath? omless caves and vaster ? immensities of eternity's ocean. And of velocity, we pauso utterly confounded at the idea of light moving twelve millions of miles in a minute, and sweeping down to us from stars so remote that it takes 35,000 years to accomplish the journey. -? ? Alcoholic rheumatism has been dis? covered and defined in London. It is a complaint resulting from the too general use of alcoholic beverages ; the marked effect is slow and rarely ever developed except after middle life ; it causes stupid? ity, stiffness in the body, hobbling gait and ultimate lameness and palsy. The cure lies mainly in gradual and then total abstinence from the use of all fermented alcoholic drinks, and taking.vigorous ex? ercise in tho open air. -.-?. ? Tho wind is unseen, but it cools the brow of the fevered one, Bwcctcns the summer atmosphere, and ripples the sur faco of the lako into silver spangles of boauty. So goodness of heart, though in visablo to the material eye, makes its presence felt; and from its effects upon surrounding objects vr ??ro assured of its existence. ? The most agreeable of all compan? ions is a simplo, frank man, without any high pretensions of any oppressive great? ness, who loves life, and understands the use of it; obliging alike at all hours; above all, of golden temper, and steadfast as an-anchor. For such a one, wo gladly exchange the greatest genius, tho most brilliant wit, the profoundest thinker. ? ? physician walking out with a friend of his-said to him : "Lot us avoid that pretty little-woman you see thereon tho left.
