A few years since the•EinrincittylAttlit='
. _
.ty of Economy, Pa., became owners of a
',art of the land included in a •plat of
ground bordering the — river on our
side, and along the Pittsburgh, Fort
Wayne and Chicago Railroad on the
other. Being covered with immense
sand boulders or huge stones, doubtless
washed there by the river ages ago, the
1 soil was sterile and non-productive to
the agrigulturist, and of no avail to the
owners as farming land. It was not dif
ficult for the Trustees of the Society that
held ownership of the real estate, to see
that nature had intended and prepared it
for a thrifty loan ti factu ring town that
should serve as an outlet to the energies
of Pittsburgh, by affording facilities that
were denied in the "Smoky City," be
cause of the great value of land upon
4vhich to build manufactories. After
several attempts to originate and put in
to operation a plan that would be MLIC.
eessfill, the society employed as agents
the firm of 11. T. & .1. Reeves, of New
Brighton. to whom is largely due the
great change that has been made the last
four years. During theyear 1667, a large
building was erected, known as the
"Beaver Falls cutlery Works. - The lo
pating, of this inanufactory began a new
era, and henceforth asteady increase has
been kept up. Without entering largely
into particulars regarding the man u lac
ituring interests of the place, I will sim
ply say that at the present time the vari
ous manufactories of the fla,e elupl , y
about eight luttolred la rers, paying
out for labor ea-11 month t irly thousand
y
dollars. The capital em oyed is about
one and a quarter million del ;. - s, and
the value of their manufactu d'goods
one hundred thousand do tars per
month. 1
c
lia~~i
C
The population of the place is now
about four thousand,closelv rivaling the
enterprising village of New 'Brighton,
which loses none of its former energy;
but is rather stimulated by the competi
tion.
In educational interests the place is not
idle. The "( lid Brick - School House"
that for years was both sanctuary and
school room, where the little urchin be
wailed the too vigorous application of
"ferrule" and "birch," and on Sabbath
day pious and impious met in the public
services of worship, has been cast away
as belonging to the past ag©, and a new,
elegant Union School building erected
at a cost of thirty thousand dollars, and
from its proud cupalo the "deep-toned
bell" rings its peal of joy and prosperity
to the people.
Religiously the people aro awake.
There have been erected since ISGS, six
churches—two Methodist, two Presbyte
rian, ono Catholic and ono Lutheran.
Louise Holden in the lecture "Our
Humorists," delivered not long since in
Brooklyn, alluding to the English wit.
Sydney Smith, expresses a wish which
many will echo. She says: "It has
been remarl,ed that some of the most
needed reforms' of the present century
in England, are directly traceable to this
witty divine, or, dirise if 1 : that he re
ally laughed John Bull out of some of
his most cherished stupidities of leL:isla-
Lion. Would that an .1111,r-wan Sydney
Smith might arise, capable of laughing

ed that those members of the churches
who engage in promiscuous dancing and
refuse to abandon it, !mist be suspended
from the communion of the church till
they repent and amend their lives.
From a coltpction of all the passages
In (deriptard in inference to dancing, it
may be inferred: That dancing was a
religious act, both in true and idol wor
ship.
That it wag practiced exclusively on
Joyful occasions, such a*natioual festi
vals or great victories.
That it was performed on such occa
sions only by one of the seas.
That it was performed usually in the
day time, in the open ; air, in highways,
fields and groves,
That men who perverted dancing from
a sacred use to purposes of amusement,
were deemed ittnirtiom
That no instances of dancinz are
found upon record in the Bible in
which the two sexes milted in the exer
cise, either as an act of worship or
amusement.
That them is no Instance upon reeeid
in the Bible of social dancing for amuse
ment, except that of the "vain fellows,"
void of shame, allnded to by Miehal—
Saul's daughter—of the irreligious fam
ilies described by Job, which produced
increasing impiety and ended in des
truction, and of Ilerodias, which termi
nated in the rash vow of Herod and the
murder'ofJohn the Baptist.

%Vat rtemhurg, Jan. Bth,
Neeing the Point.—A boy returned
from school one day with a report that
his scholarship had ration somewhat be
low the usual avers:;'.
i wpu," said his father, "von' ve fallen
bithind this month, have you?"
"Yes, sir.'
"flow did that happen ?"
"Don't know, sir."
The fat:ler ttnew, if the Sani did not. Ho
had observ ed a number of dime novels
scattered about the 11011R0 ; hut had •not
thought, it worth while to say any thing
until a' fitting opportunity arrived. A
basket of apples stood upon the doer,
and ho said:
"Empty out those apples, and take the
basket and briuiz it to me half-full of
dry
Sunpceting nothing, the son obeyed.
"And now.' he continued, "put those
apples back in the brisket."
When ,half the apples were replaced,
the son said :
"Father, they roll oft. I can't - ptit on
any more.".
"Put them in, I tell you."
"But, father, I can't put them in."
"Put them in 1 No, of course you
can't put them in. Do you expect to fill
a basket half-full of chips and then MI
it with apples? You said you didn't
know why you fell behind nt school, an 4
I will tell you. Your mind it 4 like the
basket. It will not' hold only so much,
and here you have been for the past
month filling it up with chip dirt-L:mlA
entitle dime novels."
The boy turned on bin heel, whistled,
and said, "Whew ! I see the point."
Not a dime novel has been seen in the
house from that day to this.
Other and older persons might well
see the same point. A mind filled with
fiction bates and rejects truth. A por-k
son reading history, art, scienee, dr trav
els, May grow wiser e'ory day; but a
man may read fiction a hundred years,
and know no more when ha finishes
then when ho began.
There is real sill and-sorrow, and siff-
Airing enough in the world for us to pity
and relieve, without Waiting otie tears
over thetroubles of smite fictitious "Ma
tilda Jane ;"—and there is work, and en
prise, and energy enough in real life to
engage onr powers, without resorting to
cheap newels for inspiration and excite
ment.
• But unfortunately, the girls who will
shed as many tears ever some heroine's
fictitious sorrow as they would , while
peeling apan;frill of omens, are the very
persons who would tom up their noses
at a suffering beggar, and let a siek per
son starve, tins:hilted, in a garret. And
the boys who wax heroic over the great
doings nf some count, hero,-Or cut-throat,
aro too lazy to earn an honest living,
and ari) willing to have their mothers
wait on them and black their boots while
they lie in bed after sunrise, or smoke
cigars and swear. to prove that they are
men !
Don't fill your apple basket with chip
dirt.

to the school with them, and 'they said
they would sit on the portico, Sitd want

Taylor to send to ;thy' sehool-tiom for
John, which she did; and tvittot,l came'
back, found a stranOy in my ottlep, wish

and the boy to oceitTpy the °Med; and not
remain in the cold,; (the school regu

man to step into that : parlor. sithieli he did.
and ho and-AI wertil n converOtlon in
the parlor, when Mtg. Taylor brought
John up, and they trolled him /nt on the
portico, and hp and they talked some
time, and refused airs. TayWee repeated

then stepped to the parlor alt reported
the fact to me, and'," went ;hi the door
nd repeated the liovitatioui : and they
fused, and I said that waslhe regula 7

was made, "We doinot carefor the law
or 'the regulations, Five will : stay here."
I then, standing on =the dooir-step, took
hold of John's arm, (thinking, if I would
bring him In, they would follow, when
the mother said, "Would , you dare to
take my son front me?" , and at the
same moment sprang forward, and
caught me by the collar of my coat with
both hands, and the, aunt took the boy
out of my hand, and started to take him
away, while the mother held me, and I
could not get loose from her grasp till I
got to the edge of the portico. I was
trying to get away from her, and get the
boy, that the aunt was taking away, in
this I failed, and I then caught the moth
er by her dress on 'the shoulders, and
tried to set her over on theportieo,-(they
had been sweeping and threw the two
largo mats out) on °neer them (the mats
were thrown across each other and the
corner of one turned up) she tripped,
while I had hold of her, and fell, and I
tried by holding on to her dress, to pre
vent her from falling hard, -but the mo
ment she came to the floor, she cried
murder, and I helped her up, and by
that time my wife had poss es sion of the
boy, and I took-him to the school-house
and returned. During the time I was
gone to the school-house, they used such
profane language to Mrs. Taylor and in
presence of children, calling me bad
names that my wit© said to them that
she would not talk to them, ;kind left
them and went into the house, arid they
followed her to the door of the parlor,
and one of them said, "lie daenied if I
don't have the boy before I leave Ro
chester;" she said I was a dirty, mean,
wretch, and that this gentleman in the
parlor was just like myself, and would
swear all thing (an entire stranger to
me), tese of them said she would be
damned if she-would not arrest me be
fore she left Rochester ; she would send
the to the penitentiary; that she had or
ders in her pocketirom Mayor Callow for
the boY; that I would find it was the dear
est thing I had ever done, and a great deal
of that kind of effervescence. To which I
replied that we had seen your kind of wo
men before. I said to them, "You can do
what, you think best, I will do my duty."
The next night Some men crossed the
river and came down the side street, and
got one of the boys to go and tell John
that his uncle wanted to see him, and they
took him off with them ; they told in
town that they were armed, and would
have him. These aro the facts in brief.
I did not strike the woman in any way.
She had time to kists John a hundred

Practical '. raeti.—When any or
gan or part of - the body *co mes diseas
ed it gives out more than its accustomed
share of particles from that part. These
separated-particles are carried out of the
body through the medium of tiiii kid
ney!, and may by chemical analysis aid
microscopic examination i ale definitely
ascribed to: the precise - locality whence
they_ are derived.
These are practical facts, not merely of
valne in ordinary cases alone, but scien
tific men, Todd, Bennett, Queckot, and
others, have placed on record numerous
Instances wherein the correct diagnosis
in obscure cates depended solely upon
these kind of Investigations.
We ourselYes, during an experience
4 !
of over twent years practice, have bad
many individ at cases wherein the ex
amination of e urinary secretion alone
revealed the t ue nature of the disease,
after all the ell - known methods of the
very best ph icians of the country had
signally fail .
When we p oposo to detect diseaseerby
an examined n of the urine alone, bein •
prepared, as we are at our office, No 1M
Grant street,, l Pittsburgh, with all the
chemical and ( microscopic apparatus for
testing it-in the most scientific manner
we base our proposition not upon clair
voyance, spiritualism, hocus-pocus or
legerdemain. but upon the incontrovert
ible facts, and make our deductions in
accordance with the immutable laws of
science.
Indeed, it is these facts alone that give
to our peculiar system its true value,
that stamps it as a science. For that
only is scientific. which is based upon
incontrovertible facts.
Those living at a distance by sending
a specimen (morning's urine) for scien
tific analysis and examination can have

little machine is seen to perform its wonders, tot
doubts of Its eitzestn7, efficacy and utility ar.
banished, and the doubter and detractor at one

It is as perfect for washing as a wringer la lon

is within the reach of every housekeeper, and
there is no article of domestic economy that will
