THE TIMES.
Just now f verjtiody y trying to Link
irto tlic future to see if they can deter
mine whether tlic year lc(i7 i.s to be
numbered among -tho years of financial
ruin. We cannot lint pay that cireuin-
stances point in that direction. The
prices ot every kuul ot provions are
steadily on the increase, while the wag
cs of labor arc on the decline. The
poorest article of fbur c:innot now be
bought in the city of Erie for less than
$13,50 nor barrel, and the best at from
J17 to 913.
I'uring the financial crash of 1857, if
wo remember aright, the highest pi ice
paid for flour was 91 1 so that vc arc
now paying four dollars more -lor the
name article than we did then. At (lint
time the crisis was nt it highest point
while now wc arc only thinking of it
but almost sure it will come.
L cople will very naturally inquire
the cause of all this,
much money iu tho
ever was. No man
1 here is now as
country as there
will deny this.
Uut why are times so
;ht ? What is
the reason the men who hold this money
do not invest it in business which will
give the laboring classes employment ?
We think tho most ready answer is that
they are fearful of the future, and well
they may be. It was said by the Radi
cals that as soon a:i sonic setthd policy
was agreed upon in regard to the Soath.
that business would revive, ami that
prices would soon be at a gold standard.
Wejl tho "settled policy," in the
shape of the Military Reconstruction
Bill, with supplements thereto has been
paescd and become a law, and has been
accepted in good faith by tho Southern
people, and yet wo have heard nothing
to warrant the verification of tho prog
nostications of tho Radicals. On the
contrary, .since the passage of the bill in
question, prices have been steadily, and
ore still, advancing.
Now, the fact of the matter is this :
Congress has been iu session since I'o
comber last. Iu ill that time they have
been ceaselessly endeavoring to circuiu.
vcot Mr. Johnson in his efforts to re-1
Btorc the Lusmess relations and mutual
confidence between tho North and tho
South. They, id thoy alone, arc the
men who should bo held accountable for
the coming crash.
We aro no alarmists wo may be
mistaken, and wo sincerely hope we are
but things look toward the eventful
crisis so strongly, that it were well to be
prepared when it arrives. There is but
one way in which we can lessen tho
sufferings which will inevitably follow,
and that is by everybudy helping their
ficighbor. M.
Q5The thorough aud complete tri
umph of tho Democracy in Connecticut,
who have succeeded in electing three
out of fo.ur Congressmen, is exceedingly
gratifying aud encouraging. Tho Radi
cal ranks are broken aud that party,
overwhelmed with defeat, see in their
dUcomfiture the evidence of a terrible
awakening among the masses. They
realize that the peopl of Connecticut
are tired of Radical misrule, and are
anxious that the wholo country bo re
stored to its accustomed peaceful rela
tions, which cannot bo done so long as
tho Radicals are in power,
Connecticut has struck the first blow
at the Radical pyramid, and by Novem
ber, 1808, in the good Providence of
God, the foul aud rotten structure will
bo toppled to tho ground, and law, or-,
dor and Constitutional liberty will be
speedily restored to us thereafter.

SgXThe Radicals have been making
a great noiso over tho Presidential par
dons. The list of names of the puid'jn
fcj has just been printed, in accordance
with a resolution of Congress, and it ap
pears that in nearly every instance in
wliich a pardon was granted, Radicals
had endorsed the application. So much
for that clamor. Ibid.

There is but one truo Mod ; (to tiicro
is but nun truo religion, but ono truo
I'lnne'i. Thero inny bo any number of
nar (.oils (injects pi religions worship
or objects of that devotion which should
bo given to (lod only. Tho heathen
have their idols of wood, stone, gold or
silver ; and so ihuro tuny bo idols of
anoiiier kind set up in tho hearts of
those who might bo offended if you
dmibt whethet they worship tho true
(Jod. !ut idolatry, whether gross or
more .refined, is not truo religion. That
is the worship of tho ono truo God : the
God of Abraham, Isaao and Jacob : the
God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ :
the God, not of the Jews only, but of the
Gentiles also : the Almighty, Maker of
Heaven and Karth, who wap, and who
is, and who shall bo forever.
When we read "In the beginning
God created the heaven and tho earth,"
wc understand that God existed before
' the beginning " that he is eternal
and as lie depends not for cxistenco on
any other being, wo say God is self-
existent, lie did not bcrjin to be, and
so II is existence can never cease. God
is not subject to.change. He who crea'
ted the world and the human race, can
do all things " Is anything too hard
for the Lord ? "
lie that cave man understandinz
" that teachcth him knowledge " must
know all things. So we say that God is
sell-existent, eternal, unchangeable, .qui
nipotent and omniscient.
Here pause a moment to think of
God's grcutne.'. What honor we are
accustomed to pay to grcnt man how
eager to sec them how we should re-
juice (not to say yhrt) if wc could form
t!icir acquaintance and bo numbered
among their friends ! But God is a Bo.
nig in comparison with whom all men
ate as nothing. All human greatness
shrinks into insignificance when wo
think of Him who is from eternity to
eternity tho same : who spoke into be
ing the universe. onlv a small nart of
wluoli do wo know anything about.

of our lives, and all our circumstances

whoso are all our ways." Think what
this infinite Bein-' has done for His

to avoid the anger of such a Foe 1 If

Nr. Editor: Allow mo to call fhe
attentiou of your readers to a very re
markable phenomenon, which all may
navo opportunity to observe at this sea
son of the year. I call it very rcmarka
tie, not because it is uncommon, but be
cause it is so uniform as to establish a
principle; and ono which is very im.
portaut in its practical applications.
Perhaps T should lay claim to a little
discovery iu this matter ; but I have
observed several instances whcie tho
principle seems to have been recognized
and and acted upou for the benefit of
tho public.
Indcoii, it has long been an acknowl.
edged principle, or law, among scientific
men, and in many places it has been
applied to tho improvement of the pub
lic roads; but it would seem to be not
generally known in this county. So
without claiming any original discovery,
I merely ask your readers to obscrvo for
themselves tho fact that water invaria
bly tends to run down hill. And it
will bo noticed also that tho force of the
water tuods to move along with jt any
loose particles of earth that may bo in
its way.
Now in a country so hilly as ours tho
importance of this principle can hardly
be overated. It is necessary to obscrvo
it in the construction of roads, and
keeping them in repair, and tho appli
cation is not difficult. Thus: if wo
make die middle of the road tho high
est, with a good ditch on each side, the
water will naturally seek tho ditch and
flow along (juicily by tho roadside.
Where tho road is nearly level this is
all that is needed, but if there is a con.
sidcrable inclination, a little mound or
Lnr thrown across the road once in two
or three rods will turn the water into
the ditch, and prevents its mnkimi a
ditch in the middle of tho road. It is
better to make a mound or bar than to
dig a trench across the road, as it does
not jolt a carriage so much.
Now, Mr. Editor, I venture to say
that if the supervisors of our highways
will carry out the above suggestion, it
will save us a great deal of expense and
give us a great deal bettor roads. Ev
ery uitizeu will thank them, and I will
ask nothing more for my advice.

Mr. Editor: Will some of yonr
mathematical correspondents enlighten
me on the question How to combine
finite factors so as to produce inSoitv ?
If it can be done, I should like to know
how, yet it so generally believed I do
not like to say it cannot bo dono, with,
out tho advice of thoso better acquaint,
with mathematics.

day evening for the celebration of the
upiiais, dm unroriunately the young
gentleman who procured the license
failed to make his nppcaranoa with that
important document, and after waiting
a long time, the minister s patience wore
out una ho departed. Another clergy
man was sent lor, but owing to tho late
ness of tho hour and the inclemency of
the weather, ho refused to comply, and
the ceremony had to bo postponed till
Iho next day. In the mcantimo the
person having the license appeared, and
in due time on the morrow the minister
was en route for the residenco of th
brido : but on arriving on tho banks of
the classic Hiukston Creek, the flood
had placed an impassablo barrier in his
way. Not to bo thwarted this time
however, one of tho bridal attendant
swam the stream with tho license, the
bride and rroom, mounted on horseback

opposite side ot tho stream, proceeded
to solemnize the marriage rites according

Tensionino Newspapers. Accord
ing to an act of Congress the Clerk of

crcu to autnonzo two newspapers in

weaker class of newspapers struggle for
it as if it were tho journalistic elixir ol

we find that the fortunate ones aro all

nearly all ot them sickly concerns, wliich

some unusual quarter. It seems to us
that if the Radicals arc determined to
pension the few papers in tho South
which arc engaged in fomenting dis
tui uances and keeping alive political
passion and hatred, it would be better
to make a direct money appropriation !

Some wise head in Texas has revived
the old story about picking cotton with
monkeys. The fact is that that p recious
nuuibug was very particularly and
effectually exposed in 1819. At that
time a Georgian planter had occasion to
visit Trinidad, where, in consequence of
a mania on me monkey subject, he in
vested in that lively article largely
;uany or tns purchases died cn route.,
but ho finally reached his homo with
twenty-throe of the littlo chaps, which
cose line ail told, StS.UUO. Jor two
weeks not a stroke of work was done on
the place. Every hand, white or black.
had to play with tho monkeys. After
a littlo, all the pickers were sent into
the field to teach the monkeysjiow to
pick, the calculation being that one
negro could manage ten monkeys, aud
that five monkeys could pick as well us
three darkies. It took a second fort
night for the planter to see the fruit of
his labor, and then ho saw something
that he didn't like. Instead of one negro
managing ten monkeys it took ten ne
groes to manage ono monkey, and he
was so mischievous that he wasted more
cotton than ho picked. Tho enterprising
planter was fully convinced of the folly
of his plan, gave h is monkeys to his
neighbors as curiosites, sold the remain
der to a menagerie, and concluded to
stick to human labor from that time on.
