EDITOR!: In four issue of the 3d ult., appears an article of W. W. Corbin, of Colorado, entitled " What I Know about (Colorado) Farming." His article needs some qualification, and with your permis uion, I propose to-touch it lightly. He says : "Of course, the first thing essential, is land well fenced " This may, or may not be true, ac cording to circumstances. In many, of our counties no fence imased. The law provides for herdin( or other- Wise takind care of stock so as' to render fences wholly useless ; .and Mr. C. could find farms in some of those counties cultivated in -corn, that would make him think he was seriously mistaken relative to the culture of that staple in this coun try. Now a small farm of say'l6o acres is not large enough to keep stock on to any extent, and those who have but that sort of farm would need to fence where fence is the law; but if a farmer had two or three sections, as many do, and several thousand head of stock, he could much better afford to herd his stock than fence his laid, except a small - portion for orchard. He says again : " The land worth occupying is nearly all taken—i. e., good land." This, to some extent, is true. All the niost desirable locali-i _ties near town or market, are taken. But some, as fine as can be found anywhere, yet rernain at lowest prices; but as a general thing rail road lands would be Mostdesirable at present, which can be had at low figures and easy terms. • His next trouble is building: "lhe expense of building is very great. Most of the lumber being brought from some of the Stafes." This is an error no Coloradoan has any shadow of right to fall into, ,ftud I can only account for it by presuming- your correspondent has been in the Terri ' tory but a short time, and made but little investigation into such matters. While it is tine that ranch hithber comes to our country from Chicago and St. Lunis—mostly from the for mer place—it does not by any Means follow that building should be at tended with great expense. ',Many 'fine houses are standing in Colorado with not au inch of Eastern lumber, but roost builders now use more qr less of thelatter kind, for the reason that it is cheaper. First-class Chica go siding, ready forllaying, can be had at $3O per thou Sand. Flooring at $4O p r thousand. Mouldings, c.,i sash, (173er , blinds, etc., manufactur ed East,- • n 'be had hero for• less than the s rue could •be manufactur ed in the, euntry. But all this does not make' building very expensive. $24 to -$3O buy the rough lumber, and brick may be bad every year at $7 to $t per thousand, and carpenters at from $3 to $5 per day,and they board .. themselves. - The next, irrigation, is in my opin ion, the worst disadvantage here." Now, instead of a hindrance, this is one of the many things which makes Colorado farming pleasant and profi tabl. A 160 acre farin can be so ar ranged that any ordinary. Mexican can irrigate it-in three days at most, aud r the preparation is attended with but little expense. The head ditch or canal - is so arranged as to be a sort of feeder to the land, and this 'is al most invariably a surface ditch, made by plow and scraper, or shovel. Then the laud cultivated iii small grain or vegetables, is plowed at right'angles; Or nearly FiO with this ditch, and the -finishing or dead furrows with small grain, etc., answers for the irrigating ditch; and of course the rows of corn or vegetables will carry the -water, and th a is attended with no expense, and the farmer is never at loss to know what to do and how to do it when his crop needs water, and be is pot troubled with rain, mud, grain " growing,"'etc. i etc., as in many in stances in the 'States. - It must be understood that this county is eminently calculated for this same process of irrigation. The streams are all high at the time the water is needed, -say from June to Angina inclusive. ' Then again, 'tome ZEISrTH. mgirr TOWANDA, BRADFORD COUNTY, PA., DECEMBER 12 1872.

This is not general, and depends upon location. The mountains produce',potatoes and turnips of the very finest quality, and this from 8,000 to 10,000 feet above tide water. I am a professional gent, and yet have produced cabbage to weigh 60 lbs. each, and beets over 30 ; oats,, 100 bushels to the acre; to weigh rom 40 to 50 lbs. to the= bushel I have been in the Territory for thirteen years, and am tolerably well acquainted with the country and, its resources and advantages, as well as its disadvantages. Few have had opportunity to know these things better, and if your correspondent C., will attend, I will take bim free of charge from Denver in any direction `where the country is settled, and ,show him the first one bundred farm ers consecutively, who have made money, and there will not be one, or, to exceed one, who would be willing to exchange his farm for any he knows of East. Mr. C. sayEi labor is higher than in the East This perhaps is true; but why does labor command more than it is worth ? Such a state of affairs could no where exist for any length of time. And I apprehend labor can be had here as low as in any State which is in a prosperous condition, and there were no 'such wages paid here as the farmers had to submit to in lowa the past season, say $4 per day. One reason why wages fk farm la bor, especially harvesting , t is not so high in this\as in Eastern countries, is, here where we irrigate and rain is the exception, the work does not drive as it does where the weather is " catching." The farmer can cal culate to a day how long it will take him to do any certain piece of work, etc. C. Thinks farming does not pay here any better, if as well, as it does in. the States, and tells you the coun- try does jot produce enough for its own consumption, etc. Now what course of logic will induce the "think ing man " to believe farming will not pay where crops can be raised early and of a better quality. than in a country five hundred miles distant. He says the facilities are such now that the Colorado farmer bust com pete with the States, etc. Granted; and when it is understoolsr(as is the fact) that one hundred dollarie worth of anything can be, and is, produced in Colorado as cheap 'as in Kansas, lowa, Illinois,. or any other State, what hinders farming to flourish' against equal chances in a distant country, where freight and two , pro fits must be paid as against the sim ple production here: Bat I fear this note may be tedi ous, and will close with a word or two nore. Our country abounds in gold, silver, iron, copper, lead, coal, salt, soda, etc., and is ono of-the best, if not the best, grazifig countries on the earth. I venture the assertion that millions of stock can be fed and fattened 'ready for the butcher, in Colorado, , all times of the year, at an expense of ten per cent. on what it can be done for in any State, except. Texrs, - and at much, less rates, and better by far, than can be .done even in Texas. , This is not confined to one season, or to any particular season. Febru ary is as good a month to kill fat beef from the grass alone, as any in the year. And many,thortiand herd of stock ranged over 'the plains last winter, when it was considered the hardest ever known in this region, with no bare r not even a herder; and the per cent. of loss was away• below that of Kansas, or any feeding State, where six months at least cattle were fed. JonN DIED Batter is never worth less than 35 cents per lb. here, and often brings 45 to 50 ; and with the facilities for f-eding or doing without, who could, not man some nieney at that ? And where we °can ship fat cattle to New York City, and compete successfully 'with States 2,000 miles nearer ,mar ket, who will think for a momentthat stock-raising will ever be over done so long as millions of litres of land lie inviting the enterprise and indus try of the energetic pioneer. I would be glad to say more on these subjects, but know your valua ble space cannot be used for such re marks. I have been much pleased with your correspondents from lowa and Nebraska.. They seem to appre ciate all the advantages of a "large" new country. There are many diffi culties to overcome in all new coun tries : such as absence of first-class schools and some times churches, ete.; but if your correspon.lent C. will come to Denver we will• show him a better school house than any two in Bradford would make, and schools of their class not to be surpassed in the world. It . must not be, thought for a moment that no talent finds its way to this far off Rocky Illonntain country. Here is, just where you find it, and our climate rather in dimes activity in every branch. But with all our advantages, I would not advise'any who are well situated in' the East with 'goOd health, to emi grate to any other place. Yours as of old. K. DmNvral, Coi. T.. Nov. 23, 1872.

EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYED. BY GAIL liksturox. When the proprietor of a factory, the director of hundreds of "hands," has paid the stipulated wages of the men, women and children whom he employs, his technical obligation to them ceases. Strictly speaking, they are mere working machines ; he is an em loying or paying machine. How th y spend their time ant of his mills i no iffairL of his. -'Whether they live comfortably, respectably, virtnonsly—whether they -starve—he has-no responsibility. The employ. ed has no right to look to the em ployer for anything but the money which he agreed to pay. ' The reason why a strict adherence to the letter of this law does not al waysi work well in practice is that you never can count on men as ma d:tines., Calculations always fa il un less men are reckoned as human, sensitive, intellectual beings., 'Wheth er they be rich or poor, learned or ignorant, they all are tuned to the same key. The girl in the kitchen is very unlike her mirtress in the pix ie!. ; but also very like her. Upon her presses the same hunger for so ciety, for mental activity, for moral . sympathy ; the same love of beauty, the same affection for kindred, the same religions sentiment. tAs id wa ter face answereth to fac,e, so the heart of man to man; and woman to woman. ; It is ignorance of this fact or mis apprehensien of its bearings which goes far to prevent the kindly rela tions which should exist between employer and employed—between persons of common nature and com mon interests. .- If the untutored Irish woman ; who exults over the . destruction of her mistress' house and property should see herself, in consequence, at once trailed out of house and home, and reduced to beggary, she would exult no more. She would see that her mistress' loss was her own. Society has become so compact and complicated that the loss is too t Minutely subdivided to attract Bridget's notice; but ,it is none the less there, and is just as truly hers as if she bore the whole brunt of it on her broad shoulders. When the workman earns his two, three, and four. dollars a day, and sees his proprietor gathering in his tens and perhaps :thousands a year, - it seems to him an unequal and im partial distribution of awards. If the workman could suddenly be set in the proprietor's place; if heould see by what painful steps the latter bad toiled to his . present elevation; if he coned see what- wide horizons had to be scannned, *hat - multitudi nous featureseoniurehended, remem bered, reproduced; if he could feel the tumult of anxieties, the nftni tude of issues, the perplexity tyagen: cies, the bitterness of mist es, the responsibility of losses, hewknld see that the carriages and, carpets of the proprietor are but a very small part of his establishment. There is a re verse side. It is. impossible for the subordi nate to see things as the pricipal lees them. If reicould do ore he would 'be the principal! But he can certainly be made to feel that he is to the proprietUres well as to himself, something more than a machine. There are - factory masters who are not only the employers but the per sonal friends of. their operatives. Without trenching upon their. inde pendence, or their personal. dignty, the proprietor does occupy toward them something of the attitude of a patriarch, - ti sovereign. He provides commodious and tasteful dwelling' houses. He beautifies his grounds snd even his factories. He opens a reading room and . library, procures lecturers, visits schools, encourages concerts, tableaux and dramas. His family live in no remote sphere, apart and unapproachable ; but they, as well as he, dwell among their own, people. , They cast their lot with the daily toilers. His wife and- daugh ters.know the community, their cir cumstances, their character; their children. Not with condecension, but with sympathy, they are always ready for advice, for aid, . for the right word in the right - place. There is on the ether aide no malice, no' envy of superior position, for it is seen to be only„a source and centre of grace. And of all that proprie tor's investment in stocks and lands, in railroads and ships, none I vent ure to say bring him' larger returns of happiness than the money and tithe and thought he expends in en larging And Illustrating the lives of lis workmen, over and above the wages he has contracted to pay them. It is not a hard duty. I might fa mat say it is no duty at all. It is a pleasure: . It makes -life agreeable and interesting every day'. And all the while it is doing this for the individual immediately con - cerned, it is helping to solve the greatest problem of capital and la bor.

New York Independent. CHINA AND GLASS FABRICS. Many of the exquisite forms given to those beautifUl specimens of earth en ware which form the service of our brUakfast add our dinner tables, are not capable of being executed in the lathe of the potter. The embos sed ornaments on the edges of the plates, their polygonal shape, the 'gilded surface of many of the vases, would all be difficult and costly of execution by the-hand; but they be-, come easy and uniform in all their parts, when made .; by pressing the soft material out of - which they are formed, into a hard mould. The care and skill bestowed on the prepa ration of the mould are amply repaid by the multitude it produces. In many of the ;works of the China man ufactory one part only of the article is moulded—the ripper_surface of a plate, for'example, ,whilst the upper Surface is figured. by the lathe. In . some instances, the handle, or only a few ornaments, are moulded, and the body of the work is turned. An other, instance which may be cited in illustration of this iieculiar kind of mechanical operation, is that of glass scuds. Is is well known, the process of engraving upon gems is one re quiring consiclerabls - time and skill in order to insure, a perfect result.. The "sears thus In-educed can there fore never become common. Imita tions, however, are made of various degrees of reseinhlance, and these have extensively ta>ll the place of the genuine article. The color which is given to glass, is perhaps the most successful part of the imitation. A small cylindrical rod of colored glass is heated in the flame of a blow pipe, smtil the ext.remity becomes soft. The operator'then pinches it skillful ly between the endS of a pair of nip pers, which are formed i of brass, and on one side of which has been carved in relief the device intended for the Ornamenting of the seal. 'When the requisite care has been I tcticen to heat the glass in a proper manner, and when the mould has been .well fin ished, the seals thus produced - are not bad some of them be ing extremely, beautiful' in their ap pearance. They are .produced in very large quantities and at, a- small cost. • 02, per - AxLikuin in Advance. TROUBLES OF -LIFE.

Iniade a earefuldetour, and entered the house to find a black---whisker ed chap, smelling strongly of patch ortly-i leaning lovingly . over Ange-. ,lina'S shoulder, while she 'was en gaged in practicing on a sewing:ma chine. " What 'in the name of all that is cheeky does 'this mean?" Said I. " AL! ' • replied old Patch only, with a leerl.lt my wife "your husband, I 'presume.

If the Woman possessed Of this. rare Virtue be lacking in , r physical beauty, nay, even - plain, there 'is charm in her innocence and t more potent than the sruiles.o l y - f the fairest featured siren that ever delud ed the susceptible heart of man. There is something in the ,pres_nce Of'a vain and pretentious Wounruthat be she ever so fair, repulses rather than attracts admiration: She is re garded only for ; her synimetry of form and features, and like a cold and senseless statue- of stone, ~her eyes never lose their soulless expres sion; they ,never lighten up -with the beauty of thought, nor sparkle With. the conception of any new and sub- Olin!) idea;, their changeless lctok• is f7tot the repose of peace, nor the stea dy gaze of unchanging happiness—it is 6711 y, the fixed stare of a heartless, worldly woman, whose only thought is of herself; who is ever insensible to the pleasure .of doing .good to others = au expression of techang,ea ble selfishness. True beauty lies in the hidden per ectiomof the soul. The most lovely type Of perfect womanhood is the be ing whose heart is not insensible- to relined and-t6nder feeling that min gles and blends itself with every act. and deed of her life, Xo feminine face is truly beautiful that does not wear, to a certain extent, au expres sion of .contentment and repose. Ruskin has said.: " Do not think you can,make a girl lwely if you do not make her happy i Thera is not one restraint you put on a good girl's na ttue—there is not one ce'cli you give to her instincts of affection or of ef fort which will not be indelibly written: on het features with. • a hard ness irhich is all the more painful be cause it takes awalv - - the brightness from the eyes of innocence, and the chand from the brow of virtue.
