More Tlmn Honest.
Mr. John Hamilton of St. Email's
tells the following true story, in Mac
miUan'i Magazine : " Before the famine
of 1840 and following year, tlusre was
already a considerable flow of migra
tion to America; but few well-to-do
people went then. It was chiefly young
men and women, sons and daughters of
poor families. It often happened that
means were raised with difficulty enough
for one of a numerous family to pay a
passage to America, and on such and
similar pleas I was often asked to lend
the price of a passage, to be repaid by
the emigrant. I often lent the requir
ed sum then only three or four pounds.
They sailed in small sailing-ships from
every little port, and with very inade
quate arrangements for their welfare.
Contrary to what might be perhaps ex
pected, these poor people generally sent
back the sum lent within a year, and
the exceptions, I am ashamed to say,
were the very persons of whom I had
felt most secure very decidedly of a
class looked on as more respectable;
while the poorer and less esteemed abso
lutely never failed me and they were
many. They were also, for the moBt
part, persons over whose families or re
lations here I had no power as they
were tenants or cottiers on other people s
estates. Among these was a very large
and a very poor family. The eldest
daughter was sent for by a relative who
had emigrated some time before and
who tiaid her nassase to New York.
She dreaded going alone, and succeeded

repaid witnin tne year. i.ne next year,
the same family hearing of situations tor
two more of their number, borrowed trie
ersater part of two passages, which
again was repaid at the promised time.
Not very long after this, another brother
borrowed the price of his passage. But
a year passed and no return came. And
a second year likewise. In the course
of the third year his brother came to

er had sent anything to help his old
mother, or to assist another to go to
New-York. He said he had notnot a
farthing. Where is your brother now V
I asked. ' I don't know where he is, it's
so long since he wrote.' And saying
this be suddenly stopped and colored,
Why,' said 1, ' how long is ic since you
heard from him '(' He stammered and
hesitated, and said he did not know,
Is it more than a month '(' Oh yes.'
' Is it three '(' No answer. Is it six T
No answer. 'Is it a year!', No Sir,

lusedly, i couldnt come with it any
sooner.' ' Nonsense !' said I. You
couldn't come four or five miles ? Now,
I see what it is; you have used the
money your brother bad sent to repay
his debt, and you have traded upon it
some way. As it happens, you have
succeeded; but if you had lost your
speculation, now would it bave been i
Your brother would have been supposed
by me to bave broken taith, and neglect
ed to fulfill his promise. Is it not so T
' No, Sir ; I never would let my brother's
promise to you be broken.' ' Thn how
is it? Why were you so long?' 'I
couldn't help it 1' The poor fellow was
greatly contused. But his flashed cheek
changed to pale when I said : ' Now,
you did not intend, I see, to be quite dis
honest, as you have at last brought me
the money, but you have not spoken the
truth. Have you your brother s letter e
Was that it out of which you took the
bank-notes?' 'Yes, sir.' 'Let me see
it.' ' I can't let you see it.' Why not,
if all yeu say is true ?' ' No, I can't show
it.' ' Well, then, I must think it would
make you appear more of a rogue than
I thought you. You may go ; but you
are the first of your family that has
given me reasons to suspect your truth
or honesty.' He turned and went slowly,
and as I thought, sullenly. I stood for
a minute and watched him. He stop
ped, took the letter out of his pocket,
opened it, looked at it, then looking
round and seeing me still there, ho re
turned slowly, and coming up to me he
thrust the letter into my band, Baying :
' There 1 you can read it. I would never
have let you see it, only I knew he could
n't bear that you'd think me a rogue
or a liar. He'd rather you'd know all
than that.' The letter was to this
purpose : ' Dear brother I suppose
you all thought me dead when you
were so Ion a without hearing ot me,
I was very near it ; I mot with an ac
cident and broke some of my bones
before I was three months in America,
and 1 nave been in the hospital ever
since. They say I will be months yet
before I am ht to work. 1 was hop
ing to send you some help before this
time, but you see how it is. The
greatest burden on my mind is the
money Mr. Hamilton lent me to pay
my passage. It ought to be paid long
ago. So, brother, as soon as you have
set the potatoes on mother's little place,
go somewhere where money is to be
earned, and get as much as will pay
the gentleman, and take it to him, but
don't let him know a word but that I
sent it, as 1 made a promise to do,
Was it not grand this confidence of
the injured brother in the brother at
home, and the worthiness of that con
fidence in the other? This, 1 think,
actually throws the high sense of hon
esty into the shade bright as that is
also.'
The Way they Collect a Debt at feara

How a recalcitrant debtor wis forced
into liquidation is thus shown in the
T roy Umm:
A man at Saratoga has made it a boast
for some time past that be could not be
compelled to pay a debt except as he
pleased, lieceutly a man there obtain

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
rLANK STAILB PtOOUS rOR HORSES.
A correspondent of tho Cincinnati
Gazette timers bare plan floors tor
horses. He says : " I have tried it for
fifteen years, and never littered a stall
yet, nor have 1 ever bad a norse or mme
to get lame by being to treated. I have
at times left stable floors without plank,
and afterwards planked them, for the
reason that horses do better on plank
floors, and the stables are more easily
cleaned. They do not wear in holes or
ever iret wet. I cot the idea from a pa
per many years ago, which stated that

floors for their stables, and never litter
them, and they have sounder horses than
in any other country. Now, if I were
going to build a stable floor, I would
get two by four-inch oak scantling, and
lay them lengthwise of the stall, or the
same way the horses stand, and leave
small half-inch cracks between them.
Setting them edgewise yon will have a
floor four inches thick, and one that will
be alwavs drv and cool. The reason of
laying it lengthwise of the horse is, if it
should ever wear out it is wnere tne
horse stands; consequently only a few
pieces need be taken up and repaired. 1
would also have the floor two feet above
the ground, ifpossible, for dryness and
ventilation, whoever builds as above
directed will never regret it."

the hens bad not been idle. xne total
number of eggs laid by the hens was
two hundred and fifty-seven, or eighty-
Bix eggs each ; and the ducks produced
three hundred and ninety-two, or one

the eggs of the duck were rather smaller
than those of the hens, yet they proved
to be decidedly superior in nutritive ma
terial, so the superiority in productive
ness appears to be altogether on the side
ot the ducks.
Game Hens and Ducks.-A. writer m
Canadian Poultry Chronule gives the
following as his experience with the lay-
ing qualities of game hens and ducks:
" 'rhtsre Bre few fowls moFe Prolifi. th.a.n

range of any kind, no fowls will prove

their fighting propensities. No fancier

they pick up the waste food left by other I
fowls and grow fat on it. In the barn

they are alike usetul and Denenciai.

Farming as a Business. a man
who is not smart enough to run a store
is not smart enough to run a tarm
Farmers are not to be made out of
what is left after lawyers, doctors,
ministers and merchants are sorted and
picked out. And if a man fails on a
farm he is not likely to succeed in a
store, for it requires more talent to be
a thriving farmer than to be an aver
age merchant. The one great failure
is the disproportion between a man's
farm and bis capital. A tanner s capi
tal is skill, labor and his money. If
he has little cash, he must have no
more land than he can thoroughly
manage by his personal labor. Every
acre beyond that is an incumbrance.
One acre well worked is more profit
able than twenty acres skimmed over,
It is this greed of land by farmers that
have not the capital to work it that
keerjs so many poor. Small farms
are better than large ones, simply be
cause they are better suited to the
capital of common farmers. Farmer and

How Swedish Houses are Kullt In
Maine.
" Only one framed bouse in all New
Sweden !" " For goodness' sake, how
then are they made '" writes a corres
pondent of the Boston Post from the
Swedish Colory in Maine. Mostly of
hewn timber, neatly dovetailed together,
with partitions, ceilings, and floors of
evenly-plantd cedar plank. The dwell
ings erected bythe State were of round,
peeled logs, laid one upon another, but
these the Swedes found rather chilly and
disagreeable upon the advancement of
cold weather, and improved them by
hewing both the inside and outside
walls, filling in the spaces with moss,
and then closing them up with matched
strips of oedar. A matched board ceil
ing overhead was the next addition,
with a double plank, smoothly-planed
floor underfoot, making them both warm
and neat, and to present muoh the same
appearance as those built of hewn tim
ber. They are all a story and a bait
high, with square pitched roofs, giving
ample room for chambers, and in dimen
sions extensive enough to admit one
large general front room, a good-sized
bed-room, and convenient pantry npon
the ground floor.
The windows are small, with little
panes of glass, and the only outside door
opens directly into the front room. The
interior walls of nearly all the houses
have been prettily papered by the thrifty
housewives, and with the spotlessly
clean floors and ceilings look by no
means unattractive. Tables, chairs,
cradles, rustic bedsteads, and a thousand
and one useful and ornamental artioles
appear on all sides, happily constructed
by Swedish diligence ana ingenuity.

the corridors snu compartments were crowded
dt throngs of appreciative people, all anxious
to gratify their Individual tastes by Inspecting
the multifarious and Interesting Inventions and
inanuloctures ol all mads there exhibited.
The taste displayed in the arrangement of
theso works of skill and Industry, the combi
nation of them with works of the artistic class,
the accessories by which nnlty was given to
the details of the exhibition all these reflect
tho highest credit upon tho management oi
the American Institute, as well as npon the
numerous Inventors, manufacturers, and ar
tists whose productions were comprised in
the great display. It would be impossible in
the limits oi a single newspaper article io
convey even an approximating Idea of the
variety and number of the articles contributed
to the Fair. From the midst oi these, how
ever, we select for notice a few inventions and
manufactures which held a conspicuous place
In tho Fair, and to which the attention of
hundreds of observant visitors was irresistibly
drawn.
AMERICAN CHROM0S
have heretofore been considered the exclusive
monopoly of Boston. This exhibition has en-
tirely dissipated this idea; for the callection of
it. wood, jr., (tjd uroaawayj, lor taBte in
choice of subjects, perfection of execution, and
finish, is not only unsurpassed, but entirely un
equalled by any specimens of this art ever
shown befora in New York. Mr. Wood's
collection not only shows the ability of perlect
production, but the admirable taste to know
exactly what to choose. Specially were we
strnck by the first proof of an entirely new
enromo, " Maidenhood," a companion to
" Innocence." The simple, tender beauty of

ful, girlish fltrure and pure, trusting face that
seem to throw around the canvas a perfect
jjai0 0f maiden purity. We have seldom seen
the abllitv of exnresRlno- an Idea more cower-
fully conveyed, than by this charming picture;
and in drawing, coloring and all thu details of
finish it is a lit and worthy crystallization in
color of Longfellow's sweet poem that gives
its name. The subject makes it sure of uni
versal popularity; and we can conceive no
more beautiful or delicate touvemr for the
holidays, than this realization of "Maiden
hood," with or without its pendant and com
panion, " innocence."
Another capitally managed suhject, " lost
on the Prairie," is worthy of more careful at
tention than it could receive at the Fair; and
the same may be said of many others. Among
the great variety of Mr. Wood's collection we
were struck by the delicate and brilliant
Floicer L'fitomos. In truth and coloring these
are equal to the most carefully finished water
colored drawings. "Sheltering Arms," "A
iond Delusion," with many others, attract
our attention as we pass ; but did we linger
over an that deserved this tribute we should
exceed our limits. Suffice it to say that a visit
to Mr. Wood's gallery, 639 Broadway, N. Y.,
will repay the connoisseur.
THE KBW TORK WATCH COMPANY.
Mr. 1. F. Krugler, agent for the New
York Watch Company, whose salesrooms are
at No. 8 Maiden Lane, exhibits a magnificent
collection of the watches for the manufacture
of which that Company have become so justly
famous. One of the peculiarities of these
time-pieces is that they are Jewelled with the
finest and hardest rubles, in which the pivots
of the movements revolve, thus reducing the
friction and wear to a minimum. Among tne
watches exhibited there are, to nse the tech
nical terms of the horoloirist : line-cut train;
three-quarter and full-plate patterns ; full and
plain jewelled ; cpicycloldal cure-cut wnceis
and pinions ; quick-beats, especially adapted
tor the use ot railroad officers : rubv-ieweueo
and straight-line lever escapements, etc. All
the full-plate movements have the Company's
improved close-ntttng dust-ring.

A NEEDED invention.
An invention of great value exhibited by
Messrs. Ladd & Co.. 701 Broadway, at the
Fair of the American Institute, was that of
Dr. Sapp's Walking Motion Treadle, appli
cable to any scwlug machine. It is construct
ed on sound physiological principles, calliug
into use the same muscles as in walking, con
sequently causing but little fatigue to the
operator. It does away entirely with the in
jurious motion of the old Treadle, now loudly
denouueed by all physicians, it is numeri
cally suited that nineteen-twentieth of all con
stant operators on sewing machines nre being
ruined in health, and me evil is iraeeu uy
medical men to the heel and toe motion of
tho old Treadle. It is evident to all who
have examined Dr. Sapp's improvement, that
it will be universally adopted, the cost,
coming within the means of all. Its introduc

Visitors to the Fair speak in the highest terms
of the various articles ot horse equipage ex,

harness ranging in value from (8 to $500, and
so extensive are their facilities for manufactur

BLOWERS, FORdES, AC.
8. 8. Townsend, 81 Liberty Btreet, New
York, exhibits "Root's Patent Force Blast
Rotary Blowers." This machine Is invaluable
to founders, blacksmiths, and all such other
mechanics as find nerfnet blast advantageous
to their operations, including ventilation of
uuuaings, mines, etc. The Diasi prouueeu una
a positive force, In which it differs from the
ordinary fan. By this machine a vast amount
of power is saved, and a proportionate saving
of fuel. From the peculiar construction and
orking of the machine, a erreat percentage of
wear and tear of belting and other details nre
avoided ; while the castings produced are of a
superior quality.
Mr. townbrnd also exhibits kooi s ra
tent Rotary Hand Blowers," which supersede
the old-lashloned bellows nsed on blacksmith's
forges. Some of the advantages of this handy
machine are economy of space and fuel, regu
lated at will, greater facility of working than is
afforded by the bellows, and greater amount
of work. This machine, of whleh four sizes
are exhibited, can be run either by hand or by
power. " Root's Improved Portable Forge"
is also exhibited by Mr. Townsbnd, in five as
sorted sizes. For portable forges the bellows
is known to be very inadequate, but the blast
for this forge is produced by the " Rotary
Hand Blower" already mentioned, making it
the most complete forgo in use. It takes up
less than one-third the room of the ordinary
forge, turns out oue-fourth more work, and
can be run on wheels if necessary. To all of
these valuable machines prizes were awarded
at the Paris Exposition of 18G7, American
Institute Fairs of 1809-70, and a silver
medal at Cincinnati Fairs of 1870 and 1S71.
AMERICAN SUIIMXROED l't'MP.I
The best andmost powerful Force Pump at
the Fair is the "American Submerged Pump."
The report of the J udges was, " a sluiplo, cheap
and durable double-acting, non-lrcezing lorce
inimp: adapted lor use In welU and on thint.
This pump gave the best results on a practical
trial of any pumps tested, and was placed
Fit it in the order of merit and awarded a First
remtum."
The above report on a tett, with one pnmp
at work in anv town, is the best recommenda
tion we can offer of its merits. The American
Agriculturist, who never deceive the larmers,
say "it is one of the beat pumps in the world."
The Company airents report three hundred
thousand dollars worth of property saved
from fire this year by these pumps, and we
advise all who wiBh to get the best pump to
send for circulars with price list, to the
Bridgeport Manufacturing Co., No. do
Chambers St, New York.
FERTILIZING MATERIALS.
In addition to bis high credo " Ammoniated
Bone Superphosphate" on exhibition at tho
American Institute Fair, and which has ac
quired so great a reputation amonng farmers
during the past seven years, Mr. Geo. E.
White, of 100 Front48t.,lN. Y., is furnishing
raw.materials to all who prefer to manufacture
the same article or any other special tertiiizerior
themselves. Among these are Done cuarcoai,
gronud raw bones, nitre cake, fish guano, oil
of vitriol, German sulphate of potash, sulphate
of lime, etc. These are sold at moderate
prices, and every endeavor is made by Mr.
n hite to treat his customers la such a man
ner as to ensure a continuance of their pur
chases.
DISINTEGRATING MILLS.
He also exhibited at the Fair a novelty In
the way of a mill, used for rapid work in re
ducing bones, hard guano, ores, coal, etc., and
we think it will arrest the attention of persons
erecting machinery lor such purpose.
A singular phenomensn is reported
from a place in Missouri known as unoo
nosler. It is said that rain has descend
ed there continuously for the space of
two weeks, the place moistened by the
rain being only twenty feet in diameter,
Numbers ot people have witnessed the
phenomenon and are anxious for a sci
entific explanation.
