In n word, the very best use of money is in paying one's debts: F tient standing obligations have Still a limo to io pay,them off with whatever ins teresi is due upon them at the time is better than buying any corporation stock whatever. *any shrewd business men practice this, 'and thus secure a double good, the improvement of their credit, and the actual reaping of profit. Anoth er "investment" which everybody can make is the punctual payment of open accounts, if they have any such debts. The value of money is largely increased by its prompt disbursement. The payer derives more advantage from it in this way than lie could by any investment, while open accounts harrass him. The "cash basis" is, especially in theordina ry expenses of living, the only sound and safe one ; and the one against whom no man base claim is truly independent. Especially in personal and household expenses should the cash system be ad heredlo. If everybody, rich and poor, followed this safe course, the "fluctua tions bf trade" would be diminished In a wonderful degree. The best invest ment is in. the payment of debts.

Worth Reading.—We clip the fol. lowing from an exchange, and give it to our readers because of its truthfulness. It is rather a queer piece of poetic prose, and yet contains more truth than pool ry. We commend it to the notice of all busi ness men : " When trade grew slack, and notes fell due, the merchant's face grew long and blue; his dreams were troubled throughlhe night, with sheriffs bailiffs, all In sight. At last his wife unto him said, Rise up at once, get nut of bed, and get your paper, ink, and pen, and say these things unto all men : "My goods I wish to sell to you, and to your' wife and daughters, too; my prices they shall be so low, that each shall buy before they go." He did as his gooZl wife advised, and in the p . aper advertised. Crowds came and bought of all he had ; his notes were paid, his dreans% were glad ; and he will tell you to this day, how well did print er's ink Fepay. lie told Is, with a knowing wink, how ho was saved with printer's ink. The other. in a place as tight, content ed was the press to slight. And did not let the people know of what he had, or where td go. His drafts were' due, and were not paid ; a levy on his goods was made ; the storOvas closed until the sale, and for sometime, he was in jail.

Buy it with the-dietermination to keep it as long as you live, and to leave it to your heirs. If you have no money except what you earn yourself, then scrupulously save and lay aside part of your income, un til you have enough to pay for a piece of land. To,bo an owner of a homestead will . liave a beneficial effect upon your character. It will increase your self respect—your confidence in yourself. You will feel that you have a substantial position, and something at stake in the community. The habit of saving, which you will have formed in saving money to purchase a piece of land will, in itself, be valuable to you. It will aid 'you greatly in acquiring other property, and becoming independent. The tendency of this is to make yon more self-reliant, more ambitions, more industrious, more careful, and a better citizen. If a home in Beaver or anywhere else in the coun ty, costs more than you think you are able to pay, go somewhere else and pur chase. There are plenty , of places where a home can be boughrat a low figure and on accommodating terms. Small pax is still prevailing to an alarming extent in some portions of Pittsburgh.

In the Am place the terms of nearly all city: f ryers are the same as county papers 2 fora single eopy,and 'the only way they get then? for a ism price is by clubbing, and sending for a number of copies at a time. Then, grain, they must invariably send the money in advatioe, which they very seldom do for their county paper. But the principal difference consists In the fact that it costs the publisher of the county paper the same to set his type that it does the city publisher, and setting typo is the principal exponao in publishing a news paper of -small-circulation: After the type is onceset,theexpense then is mere ly for the blank paper and-press work. • And a paper with an hundred thousand subscribers can better afford to take one dollar a year, titan the paper with athou sand subseribers i two dollars. Of course, the largo city-papers contain a larger amount of reading matter than the coun ty papers, but which is the moat useful and 'inte;estingf " That's the question. Do the . city papers say anything in re gard to your own county? Nothing. Do they contain notices of our schools, churches, meetings, marriages and hun dreds of other local matters of interest, which the county papers publish without pay? Not an item. Do they ever say- a word calculated to draw attention to onr county and its numerous thriving towns. and aid in their progress and enterprise? Not a line. And yet, there amnion, who take contracted views of this matter,that, unless they aft getting** many square Inches of reading matter in their county paper that they do in a city paper, that they are not getting the worth of their money.

NEW STORE, Buckingham Co., Va ~ O ct. 1871. . EDITOR OF Anoos:—ln answer to any persons seeking farther Inikirrntation In your county as to the prospects for their welfare in this part of Virginia, I desire to say we are having now our usual de lightful Autumn weather. This October is perfectly luxjurious. Wheat seeding is about done and the fields are becoming perfectly green un der this genial sunshine. Tracts of land of all sizes aro for sale at low prices. Unimproved land, that is lands without buildings, au?, exceedingly low and on long time. All it, on small cash pay ments and residue at one, two and three or more years. The owners have large bodies of land and almost every one is willing and anxious to dispose-of a part or all of his tracts. Cattle—common breeds—are. tilsed easily, and tomerally need no feeding until drat of - January. • Sheep are rarely fed at any time, only needing salt once a week. Hogs grow well and every farmer raises thorn for bocde nse and a few for market. The staple crops are wheat, corn, oats and tobacco. Winter oats seeded In Au gust and September thrive well and yield fine crops. Vegetables, of all kinds, grow well and there is no lack of them anywhere. A common school system similar to yours, Its been inaugurated, and in a few months we will have 3,000 schools in operation with 20 scholars each or more. - The population is sparse, but many new comers from England, Scotland and a few from the Empire State ak pur chasing lands on good terms and mak ing comfortable homes for their families. Our " Homestead Law " allows every householder and head of a family $,OOO in money or property, (real or personal), free from all debts, and this in addition to particular articles allowed by act of Assembly worth about $3OO more. This can only be bound for debt by special contract, and thus every family is assured its needful home. All wo need now is an Industrious and prudent farming population to make this themost eligible region in the South. Labor is highly respected and good order abounds in every part, and a cor dial welcome is extended to every good and true man and woman from abroad. Every want can be supplied in every town here and at short notice. A rail road through the county, now chartered. will add greatly to its comforts and values. My sheet is out. Respectfully, (Cc..

Such holidays aro deducted from the teacher's time, and it Is customary for the boys to ••turn out" the teacher who refuses to grant them, by barring him out of the school-house on Christmas and New Year's morning. Ralph had intended to grant a holiday if it. was asked, but it was not asked. Hank Banta was the ringleader in the 'disaffection, and he bad managed todraw the surly Bud, who was present this morning, into it. It is but fair to say that Bud VMS in favor of making a request before resorting to ex treme measures, but ho was overruled. lie gave it as his solemn opinion that' the master was mighty peart, and they would be beat any how some way, but ho would lick the master for twe cents of he warn't so slim that he:A - feel like he was lighting a baby. And all that day tithigs looked black. countenatits) WAS cold and hard as stone, and ttecky trembled where ho sat in fron f him. Betsey Short titter ed rath more than usual. A riot or a murd r would have seemed amusing to' School was dismissed, and Ralph, in stead of returning to the Squire m, set out for tho village of Clifty a-fow miles away. No ono know what ho went for, and some suggested that he had " slop ed." But Bud said "he warn't that air kind. Ho was ono of them air sort as died in ther track's, was Mr. Hartsook. They'd find him on the ground'nex' morning, and he 'lowed the master war made of that ar sort of stuff as would burn the dog-on'd ole school-house to ashes, or blow it into splinters, but what he'd beat. Howsumdever he'd said lie was a-goin' to help, and help be would; but all the Mono° in Holier wouldn' lie no account agin the cute they was in the head of the master." But Bud, discouraged as lie was with. the fear of Ralph's ••cute," went like a martyr to the stake'and took his place with the rest in the school-house at nine o'clock at night. It may have been Ralph's intention to. have preoccupied the school-house, for at ten oX4ock Hank Banta was sot shaking from head to foot at seeing a face that looked like the mast tor's at the window. He waked up Ittid and told him about it. "Well, what 'are you a tremblin' ah.set you coward?" growled Bud. "Ho won't shoot you; but he'll beat you at this game, I'll be; a boss, and me, too, arid make De both as 'shamed or ourselves as, dogs with tin-kitties to their talk You don't know the master, though bo did duck you. But he'll larn you a good lesson this timo,and me too,like as not," And Bud soon snored again, but Ilatik shook with fear every time ho lotrked et the blackness outside the windows. Ile was sure heheard foot-falls. lie would have given anythin o g to have been tit home. When morning came, the pupils began to gather early. A few boys who were likely to prove of service in the coming siege were admitted through , the win dow, and then everything was made fast, and a " snack" was eaten. "flow do you 'low he'll git in!" said Rank, trying to hide his fear. "flow do View!" Raid Bud. "I don't 'low nothin' about it. You might as well az me where I 'low the nez' shoot in' star is . a-gain - to drap. 'Mr. t Hart snok's mighty onaartin. But be' I git in though, and tan your hide for yo , you see et he don't. Mho don't blowtp the school-honso with .gunpowder." This last was thrown in by way of alleviating the fears of the cowardly Hank, fOr whom 3nd had a great contempt. The ime for school had almost come. The a inside were demoralized by waiting. They began to hope that the master had "sloped." They dreaded to see him coming. "I dori'i, believe he'll tome." said Hank. with a cold shiver. "Ws past school-11'W "Yes, ho• - will ,cotno, 100 " said Maa arAnditiviowittownneittiorwaist quick, I don't .knowlltow.

Swallow the ray i to soo a patient perhaps, reined , tin in front of the door. Still no Ralph. It was just five mlnutel before nine. A rumor now gained curiancy that he had been seen going to Clifty last ovening, and that ho had not come back, though in tact mai& bad looms back, and had slept at Agulre -Oar kids's. - "There's the master," cried Betsey Short, who stood out In the road, shiv ering and giggling alternately. For Ralph at that moment emerged from the sugar-camp by the school-house, carry ing -A board. ..H e I hot" laughed Rank,. "ho thinks he'll smoke us out. /, guess he'll find us ready." Tlie boys had lot the tire burn down, and there was now nothing but hot hickory coals en the hearth. "I tell you he'll come in. He didn't go to Clifty for nothin'," - said Bud, who sat still on one of the benche s wh i ch leaned against the door. "I don't knout how, but they's lots of ways of killing a ea t busbies chokin' her with butter. He'll come in—e/ ho don't blow us air sky-high," Ralph's voice was now heard,demand tug that the door be opened. "Lot's open her," Auld Rank, turning livid with fear at the firm, confident tone of the master. Rad atralghttined himself up. "Rank, you're a coward. rye got a mind to kick, you. You gottne into this blamed mess, and.now you rant to flunk. You Jest tech ono of theseere fastenings, and I'll lay you flat on your back afore you can say Jack Robinson: The teachor was climbing to the roof with tho board In hand. "That air won't win," laughtsrPete Jones outside. He saw that there was no smoke. Even Bud began to hope that Ralph wo&Ild tall for once. The master was now on the ridge-pole of the school-house. lie took a paper from his pocket, and deliberately poured the con- . tents down the chimney. r.Pete Jones shouted "G WI powder!" and started down the road to. be out of the way of the explosion. Dr. Small re membered, probably, that his patient might die while he sat there, and start ed on. But Ralph emptied the paper, and laid the hoard over the chimney. What a row there was inside! The benches that were braced against the door were thrown down, and Hank Banta rushed out, rub binu his eyes, coughing frantleally, and sure that ho had been blown up. All the rest followed, Bud bringing up the rear sulkily, bat coughing and sneezing for dear life. Such a smell of sulphur as came from that school-house ! Betsey had to lean against the fence to giggle. As'soon as all were out, Ralph threw 'the board oft;he ehftnney. leaped to the ground, entered the schopl•bouse, and opened the windows. The school soon followed him, and all was still. "Would ho thrash?" This was the. Important question hi Hank Banta's mind. And the rest looked for a battle with Bud. "It is just nine o'clock," said Ralph\, consulting ltis - watcb, "and I'M glad to see you all here promptly. I should have given you a holiday if you had asked me like gentlemen yesterday. On thehole, I think 1 shall give you a holiday, any how. The school Is dismissed." And Hank felt foolish. And and secretly resolved to thrash Hank or the master, he didn't care which. And Mirandy looked the love oho could not utter. Aud Bctsoy giggled 4IHAPTRR XIV. A CRISIS W?TII BUD. The master sat still at ilia desk. The school had gone. All at once he became conscious that Shocky sat yet in - his ac customed place upon the bard, backless bench. "Why, Shocky, haven't you gone yet?" "No—sir—l was waitin' to see If you warn!L a ;coin', too—T—" "Welt r" "I thought it willd make me feel as if God warn't so far away to talk to you. It did the other day." The master rose and put his hand on Shocky's head. "Was it the'brotherhood In affliction that made Shocky's words choke him sd? Or, was It the weird thoughts that ha expressed? Or, was it the recollection that. Shock was Han nah's brother? Hannah!--so f*, far away from him now! At any rate, Shooky,-/ookineup for the smile on whlclr-hc fedi sawlthe relaxing oi.the master's face that had been as bard as stone, and felt, Just one hot tear on his hand. •P'eaps God's forgot you. too," said Shocky In a sort of half-soliloquy. "Better get away from Flat Creek. You see God forgets everybody down here. 'Cause 'most everybody forgets God, 'cept Afr . Bosaw, and I ' low God don't no ways keer to ho remembered by rich as him. Leastways I wouldn't if I was God, ; you know. I wonder what becomes of folks when. God forgets 'out?" And Shocks, seeing that the master had re sumed his seat and was lookingabaently into the fire, moved slowly out the door. "Shockv !" called the master. The little poet camo back and stood before him. "Shocky, you mustn't think God has forgotten you. God brings things out right at last." But italph;s own faith was weak, and his words sounded hol low and hypocritical to himself. Would God indeed bring things out right? He sat musing a good while, trying to convince himself of the truth of what be had just beep saying to Shneky—tha God would indeed bring things outri. t at last. Would it all come out right if Bud married' Hannah? Wog.lif it all come out right If he wero_driven from Fiat Creek with a darks uspicion on his character? Did God ,e6ncern himself with these things ? z -Wasthere any God? It was the same- Id struggle between 0)4,,56 .al Doubt and F Ili. And when Ralph looked up _ ocky had departed. In t)b lest hoar Ralph fought the old battl of Armageddon. I shall not des c it. You will tight it in your own way. No two alike. The important thing is the End. If you come nut as he did. With the doubt gone and the trust in GOd viotorious, it matters little just what shape the battle mak take. Since Jacob became Israel there hare never been two such struggles alike, save In that they all end'either In victory. or de feat. It was after twelve o'clock on that Christmas day that Ralph put his head , out the door of the uchool-house and led out: "Bud, I'd like to see you." Bud did not care to see the master, 'for ho had inly resolved to "thrash him" and have done with him. But he could not back out, certainly pot in sight of the others who were passing along the road with him. "I don't want tbo rest of you," said Ralph in a derided way, as ho saw that hank and one or two others wore' to motvott to come also. "Thought may bo you'd want some body to see far play," said Hank as ho went off sheepishly. "If I did, you would bo the last (wl should ask,' said Ralph. "There's no unfair play , in Bud, and there is in you." And ho shut the door. "Now, looky hero, Mr. Ralph Bart sook," said Bud. "You do.nl, come no gum games over mo with your salt sad der anthill that. I'vemade up my mind. You've got to promise to leave these ere digglns, or I've got to thrash you." "You'll hike to thrash me, then," said Ralph turnidir a little pale, but mum bertng the bull-dog. "But you'll toll me what it's all about, wont you ?" "You know well enough. Folks say you know mote 'boot the robbery at the Dutchman's than you otter. But I don't, believe them. For them as says it is liars and thieves theirseives. 'Ta'n't feetiono of that. And I shan't tell you what it is for. So now if you won't travel, why take off your coat and git ready for a thrashing. — Tho master took off his boat and show od his slender arms. Bud laid his off, and showed the physique of a prize fighter. "You a'n't a-goin to. tight me ?" said Bud. "Not unless you -make me." "Why I could chew you all up.3' "I know that." "Well, you're the giAttiest f e ll er l ever did see, and of You'd jeiit kept ofrof my ground I wouldn't a-touched you. But I a'n't agoin' to be cut out by no feller a llvin,'thout thrashin' him in an inch of his life. Yon see I wanted to git out of this Flat Crick way. We're a low-lived set here In Flat Crick.

The brightAlatue on the forestick which Ralph had been watching flicker ed and burned RAY. CHAPETER XV Tick unclit OF THE BEST LICKS as the flame on the forestick, that Ralph had watched so intoneely,‘'-ilick ered and humid low, and just as Ralph with a heavy hat not quito hopeless heart rose to leave, the latch lifted and Bnd re-entered: "1 wanted to Say anmething,'L he stain inerett, "but you know - it is bard to say it. I ha'n't no :book larnin' to speak of, and some things is hard to say when a man haqi't-goti; book-words to say 'em with. And they's some things a man can't hardly ewer say anyhow to any b o Hero Bud stopped. But Ralph spoke in such a matter-of-course way in reply that ho felt encouraged to go on. "You gin up Banner kasoyou thought mho belonged to me. That's more'n I'd a,dsme by a long shot. Now,.arter I'd loft hero jest now, I nays to m.taell, say's sech a man Is the man as can help me do better. I don't know whether you're a Hardshell or a Soft-shell, or &Methodist, or a Canipbellite, „or a New-Light, or a United Brother, or a Millerito, or what not. But I says, the man that can do the clean tbiog by we, by a ugly roller like - and stick to ft, wben4 was. jest rea dy to oat him up, is a kind of a man to tie to." here litui stepped in fright atihis own volnbilitY, for he had run his words off like a piece learned by heart, as though afraid that if ho stopped he would not have courage to go on. Ralph said that he did not yet belong to any church, and he was afraid he could not do Bud much good. But hls tone was full of sympathy, and—what is bet ter than sympathy—a yearning for sym pathy. "You see, gala Bud, "I wanted to git out of this low-lived, Flat Crick way of livin'. We're a hard set down hero, Mr. ilartsook. And I'm gittin' to be one of the hardest of 'em. But I never could get no good out of Bosaw with his whis ky and meanness. And - I wont to the Mount Tabor church 'onct. I beard a man discusser' baptism, and regenera tion, and so on. That didn't seem no cure for me. I went to a revival over at Clifty. Well, 'twaru't no use. First night they was a man that spoke 'bout Jesus Christ in each a way that I wanted to folder him everywhere. But I didn't feel fit. Next night I came back with my mind . made up that Fd try Jesus Christ, and see of he'd have me. But, laws! they was a big man that night that preached hell. Not that I don't believe they's a hell. The 's plenty not a thousand miles away as deserves it, and I don't know as I'm too good for it myself. But ho pitched it at us, and stuck ittn our faces in Hoch a way that I got mad. And I says, 'Well, of God sends me to boll he can't make me holler 'nough nohow,!- You see, nay dander was up. And when my dander's up, I wouldn't gin',-up for the dei)il hisselt. The preacher - walks° Wildlife in his way of doin' itlleseein ed to be kind o' glad he was to be dam'd, and he preached somotbin' like some folks swears. It didn't sound a bit like the Christ the littletnan preached about the night afore.- So, what does me and a lot of other.-fellers do hot slip out and cut off time' big preacher's stirrups, and hang j.ifem on to the- rider of the fence, and-tlien set his boss loose! And from tlfat day, sometimes I did and some times I didn't want to be better. And to-day it seemed to me that you I must know somethin' as would help me.". - Nothing is worse than a religions ex perience kept ready to be exposed to the gaze of everybody, whether the time is appropnate or not. But never was a religious experience more appropriate than the account, which Ralph gave to Bud of his Struggle in the Dark. The confession of his weakness and wicked selfishness was a great comfort to Bud! "Do you think that JesnaChrist would —would—well, do you think he'd help n poor, unlarnt Flat-Cricker like me?" " I think he was a sort of a Flat Creek'-, or himself," said Ralph, slowly and very earnestly. " You don't say?" said Bud, almost getting off his seat. "Why, you see, the town lie lived in Was a rough place. R was called Naza reth, which meant 'l3usbtown'." "You don't say ?" "And ho was called a Nazarine, which was about the same as 'backwoodsman'." And Ralph read the different passages which he bad studied at Sunday school illustrating the condesension of Jesus, the stories of tho publicans, the harlots, the poor, who came to him. Add he read about Nathaniel, who lived only six miles away, .saying "Carr any good thing come out of Nazareth?' "Just. what Clifty folks says about Flat Crick," broke in Bud, "Do you think I cou'd begin without being baptized?" ho added presently. "Why not? Lot's begin now to do the best we can; by his help." "You mean, then, that I'm to begin now to put in my best licks for Jesus Christ, and that he'll help me?" This shocked Ralph's veneration a lit tle. But it was the sincere utterance of an earnest soul. It may not have been an orthodox start, but it was the one start for Bud. And there bo those who have repeated with the finest I:esthetic appreciation 'the old English liturgies who have never known religious aspi ration so sincere as:that of , this ignorant young Hercules, Whose best confession was that he meant hereafter " to put in" his best licks for Jesus Christ." And there be those who can define repent ance and faith to the turning of a hair who never made so genuine a start for the kingdom of heaven as Bud Means did. - Ralph said yes, that he thought that was just it. At least he guessed If there was something more, the man who was putting in hls best licks would be sure to find it out. " Do you think he'd help a fencer— Seems to me it would be number ono to have God help you. Not to help you fight other folks, but to help you when It comes to fighting the deVil inside. But you see, I don't belong to no church." " Well, let's you and mo have one right off. Two people that help one an other to serve Clod make a church." I am afraid. this ecciepiastical theory will .aotftle considered orthodox. It wag lialph's.and L , write it doWn at the risk of bringing him into condemna tion. But. other people helorelbe days of Bud and Ralph have discussed church organization when they should have been doing religious work. For both oT thorn had forgotten the danger that hung over the old beaket-tnsker, until Shocky burst' Into the .Behpol-bouse, weeping. Indeed, the poor, nervous little Cram was ready to go into con vulsions. "Miss Hawkins--" lied stated at utentiaant the - name. "M - Hawkins has 'pat - Veen over to say that a crowd la nigh tar.aud fea ther Mr. Pearson And—" here Shocky wept again. "And he won't run, but belt loaded up the old flint lock, and says he'll din in his tracks." ' - 1311. costrittop. 4T--W SPENCER . N. SO Market- St., • . f lack Silks, FanetSilkl 3 , .
