A BIO SWINDLE.
tJndcr the above caption we find the fol
lowing in. the New York Evening Mail ;
Smokers of the old fashioned " cut and
dried " tobacco are beginning to find that
the new system of putting all tobacco in
packages so &9 to have " met all the re
quirenients imposed by law " lacks the
simple requirement cT being fit to use
The plan gives large dealers an opportunity
to impose on retailers and their customers,
by putting up the filthiest compounds that
can be called tobacco, which is dampened
to such a degree. Us to make it weigh well
that it becomes musty and makes even the
vetern smoker turn from it with loathing
The law was enacted because of the large
revenue expected to bo derived from it,
but the manufacturers of the cheaper
brands are making use of it as a cloak lo
one of the bigest swindles of the age.
Heretofore, a purchaser could have the
privilege of examining the article before
purchasing, bnt now he must take the rihk
of a sealed package, that previous experi
ence teaches him is most probably a law
protected humbug. This " buying a pig
in a poke may be all very well fur the
revenue, but it is death to the buyers. The
law has barely gone into cfTect yet, but
fortunes have already been made from this
national swindle. We have seen several
specimens ol the article, purchased at
different places, and in each and every case
the tobacco was such as no dealer would
think of weighing out ior a customer, or
would even allow it to be in his ttoro in
bulk.

Freedom of Speech. This is called
one of the inalienable rights of man where
by he can rive to tho world his truo
opinions on all matters concerning the in
tcrcsts aud happiness of the individual or
tho ra:e. No honest and intelligent peison
can deny this privilege to any one so long
as such irecdom is designed for the purpose
of communicating thoughts to other minds
ior tue spreaaing or Kiiowieage, and lor
tho true interests of the human uuud in all
its relations in life.
The human mind is progressive ; pri
vate and public avenues of thought for the
transmission of ideas are necessary, and
woe to the nation where these are not se
enred. Yet an henest endeavor to benefit
the world should-be the constant aim of the
use of the tongue aud tho printing press ;
for they are the steam engines of thought
n use, for the onward progress of the race
in all that relates to human improvement
and welfare.-. Whoever regards his own
rights, or those of his country and the
world, let him see that this freedom of
speech and of the press be secured, and
so secured as to redound to the honor and
glory of those vho use these engines for
public or private purposes. Then aud ouly
then, all honor and glory to free speech
and a free press !
Learn to Wait Of all the lessons that
humanity has to learn in life's school, the
hardest is to learn to wait. Not to wait
with tbe folded hands that claim life's
prizes without previous effort, but having
struggled and crowded the slow years with
trial, see no such result as effort seems to
warrant nay, perhaps disaster instead.
To stand firm at such crisis of existence,
to preserve one's self praise aud self respect,
not to lose hold or to relax effort, this is
greatness, whether achieved by man or
woman, whether the eye of the world notes
it, or it is recorded in that book which the
light of eternity shall alone make clear to
the vision.

WANTED A WEEK."
A few days ago a gentleman advertised
in this paper for a clerk, and requested ap
plicants to address their notes to hirn at the
Ledger office. Dy the close of the first
day on which the advertisement appeared,
there were four hundred and eighteen ap
plicants for this one clerkship. This af
fords a most forcible illustration of the ex
tent to which the occupation of book-keeping
is overstocked in this city. But a lew
months previous, the head of a business
establishment, who wished some help in
the way of writing, but it which some
literary ability was required, advertised
for nn assistant, at a moderate salary, and
having incidentully mentioned that the po
Mtion might suit a lawyer or physician not
in pood practice, got more than a hundred
applicants, of which fifty-three were froml
young Jnwyers and doctors. Here was
another illustration of an over supply ot
the professional or " genteel o-cupations."
Another advertised in the Ledger, who
wanted a person to take charge of tho edi.
torial work of a weekly paper, got fifty
seven applications, not more than hull a
dozen of the applicants, being recognized
newspaper writers, but nearly all of them
being clerks, bookcepers and professional
meu. Still another advertised for two ap
prentices in a wheel-wrighfrnnd smith shop,
in one of the semi-rural wards of the city,
requesting applicants to give their ajldrcBs
and ago lie got three applications, but
in every case the applicant was too old, 'wo
of them being over eighteen, and one
nearly twenty. Still auother advertised for
au office boy; about fourteen years old, and
had so many applicants that his place was
crowded for more than five hours, and the
applicants were of all ages, from mere chil
dren not more than twelve years to full
grown men of twcntyone.
" Thcso are not very cheerful or en
couraging signs. They ar9 such, how.
ever, as every man and woman in Phila.
delphia should give attention to. The
present generation of young men seem to
have a strong aversion to evety kind of
trade, business, calling or occupation that
requires manual labor, and an equally
strong tendency towards some so called
" genteel " employment or profession. The
result is seen iu sucb lauicutible facts as
those above stated a stipeiabundance tf
elegant penmen, book-keepers and clerks
ot every kind who can get no employment,
and arc wasting their lives in thevain pur
suit of what is not to be had ; and a terri
ble overstock of lawyers without practice
and doctors without patients. The passion
on the part of boys nnd young men to be
clerks, office attendants, messengers, any
thing, so that it is not work of the kind
that will make them mechanics or trades
men, it is a deplorable sight to those who
have full opportunities to see the disus
ing effects uf it in the struggle of such em
ployments by those unfortunates who have
put it out of their power to do anything
else by neglecting to learn some permanent
trade or business in which trained skill can
always bo turned to-account.
Tlia applications for clerkships aud
similar positions in largo establishments
are numerous beyond anything that would
be thought by those wno have no chance
to witness it. Parents and relatives,' as
well as the boys and young men themselves,
seem to be afflicted with the same iufatua
tion. To all such we say that the most un
wise ad vico you can giv to your boy is to
encourage him to bea clerk or book keeper.
At the best, it is not a well paid occupation.
Very frcquenaly it is among the poorest.
This is the case when the clerk is fortunate
to be employed : but if ho should heppen
iu ue outoi place ; then comes the weary
seaieu, iue jeaiiut strup-fric
!c with the
.1 in. . .
tnousaud ot others loo!, in
for places, the
never ending disappointments, the hope de
fcred that makes the heart siek, the strife
with poverty, the humiliations that tukc all
he ruauhocd out of the poor souls, the
privations and sufferings, of those who de.
pend upon bis earnings, and who have no
resource when he is earning nothing. No
father, no mother, no relative should wish
to see their boys or kindred wasting tlieir
young lives iu striving after the genteel
positions that bring such trials and priva
tations opon them in after life.
How do these deplorable false notions as
to choice of occupation get into !he heads
ol boys Why do they or their parents
consider it more " genteel " or desirable to
run errand, sweep out offices, n cke fires,
copy letters, &e., than to ruako hats or
shoos, or lay bricks, or wield tho saw or
jackplauo, or handle the machinist's file,
or the blacksmith s hammer ? We have
heard that some of them get these notions
at f clnol. If this be true, it is a sad per
version of the means of education provided
fur out youth, Which are intended to make
them ttsrul, as well as intelligent mem
bers of society ; and not useless drags und
drones. Should it be so, that tho present
generation of boyi get it into their heads
that, because they have more school learn,
ing aud book accoaiplishmeuts than their
fathers had, they must therefore look down
upon the trades that require fckill and handi.
craft, and whose productions make up the
vast mass of the wealth of every country,
then it is time for the controllers and the
directors to have the interior walls of our
school houses covered with maxims and
mottoes, warning them against the fatal
error. I'hiladifjdu'a Ledger.

Our Mineral Betources.
The inexhaustible deposits of useful and
valuable metals underlying so aiuch of our
country are among the most important of
its many sources of wealth and ever in
creasing material prosperity. Although
these mineral resources have been but par
tially developed, enough is known to es
tablish a richness of endowment which
trausscends that of any other country. At
tho beginning of the centdry isolated spots
only had been worked, and tho fewest
number ol bankrupt companies were scat,
tered here and there in out of-the.way
places. The only coal mines were those on
the James river, in Virginia. Preponder
ating imports from England had stifled all
our iron interest, and virtually limited a
knowledge of our wealth in this mineral
to a few localities From that time up to
1830, tho date of tho earliest scientific
surveys for the location of mineral de
posits, even the most fertile imagination
had not more than rudely sketched the
outlines of our- mineral chart.
The produce in 1810 was only fU.OQO
tons. In 1830 it had risen to 105,000,
and in 1840 to 315,000 tons. During the
war the aggregate production reached 1,.
300,000 tons per annum.
The deposits of iron ore are very gener
ally and evenly distributed over the coun.
try. Pennsylvania ntid New York are
rich iu iron, aud some is found in nearly oil
the Atlantic States ; but even these vast
beds of the indispensible metal are trifling
compareM with those of Missouri aud tho
mountain ranges of the West.
Nearly every State has more or less cop
per, but the Lake Superior mines are the
richest iu tho country rivaling those of
Cornwall, Mansfeltd, or the crystulina lodes
of Australia. This important element of
our uational resources, which is now seek
ing the protection thut should be afforded
it, was worth to the country in 18G0 ti e
sum of 87.(331,598.
The deposits of lead, ttough not so gen
erally distributed, are rich enough to sup
ply all home demands, and up to 1848 our
exports of lead largely ,cxctcdcd our im.
ports. Zinc also abounds in many quar.
tors, although enough has not yet
been mined to make any considerable show
among the statistics of our mineral yield.
Its discovery iu workable quantities caught
science napping, aad until she comes up
with si ins economical method of freeing
the ore from sulphur ; this cement must,
to a great extent, remain in its native bed.
Plantium, nicklc, mercury 'aud cobalt are
found ouly in favorable localities. Bich
ncss generally compensates for lack of
quantity, and more than enough of all
exist for trade purposes. The nature and
exteut of our coal deposits are probably
better understood than these of any ether
mineral. Almost every State has some
coal within its borders. In accordance
with Ilcavcu's economic laws, coal and iron
have been made twins in this country, and
they have been f mbossouicd side by side
by earth. If tho extent of the latter is
wonderful, that of the former is truly mar.
velous. Wo do not compare our uoal area
with England, with France, or any other
country, but with all countries combined.
In this respect it is the Uuitcd States against
the world aud, for that matter aaainst
eight worlds. The workable co.il area out"
side of this country is 20,000 square
miles, while an imperfect development at
home ascribes to us more thau 200,(jOO
square miles, exclusive of the extensive
fields recently discovered in Alaska Our
annual production of tho minerals exceeds
that of any other country except Great
Britain. These figures do not set us in a
more enviable light than those further re
fined ; for, if the touage of deposits be es
timated, we find the total outside of the
United States amounts to C07,030,OGO,000
tons, wSile that wiiliio makes the enormous'
aggregate of 3,710,000,000,000 tons !
To the intelligent and appreciative read
er such an exhibit must be highly gratify
ing jjand yet we have ouly begun to uti.
lize our mineral resources. The statistics
of the present yeai will continueto multi
ply in a ratio proportionate tj our national
growth and rapidly increasing material
prosperity. What will be the aunu-al yield
of the country in marketable miucrals a
century heuce cannot be estimated.
" Ever of Thee." A sad story is con
nected with the name of the writer of the
beautiful song " Ever of Theo," which has
been sung and admired by so many iu this
country and Europe.
Foley II all was a gentleman by birth and
education. Wealthy in his own right witb
large expectations', he led a heedless life
not choosing his associates, ,but. allowing
himself to be drawn into the society of the
vicious. II is property soon disappeared,
and he was left without resources sufficient
to buy bis daily bread. His musical
talents had been lightiy cultivated, but as
he r.ever needed them, ho scarce'y knew
to what degree they could be available. In
his distress, however, he wrote his charm
ing song, " Evet of thec." A London
publisher gave him one bundled dollars
for it ; but that amount, with such a spend
thrift, would not last long. Ho wrote other
songs, but the money not coming as fast as
he wished, in a weak moment he forged the
name of his published, and although every
effort was made (eveu by the publisher) to
save him, it was all of no use, and pcor
Foley Hall went to Newgate, and broken

Punctuality.
" After much torturing experience'
says a well-known writer, " I come to the
conclusion, that nine in ten do not know
the value of time, nor the morality ot a
promise. Why is not an engagement to
meet me at nine o'clock as sacied as a
bond ? Why is not the understanding
that a church service or a lecture com
mences at the given honr, an acceptance
on your part, if you go, of an agreement,
and why are you not false to it by your
tardiness, and why are you not a bad friend
beoause of all the little miseries your
infidelity intails f The world, intercourse,
affection, great afTajrs, little details are
cursed ; prosperity, temper, character, lite
jeoparded, lost by want of punctuality.
Unpuuctual people are everywhere, aud
everything encourages thein. It is taken
forgiauted that nothing will be ' on time,'
aud so everybody holds off to insure i'.
The first ten minutes of a religious service
arc apt to be a martyrdom to prcachcis and
punctual people. There ought to be some
contrivance by which the tardy shall be
made as uncomfortable as they, and then
we might hope Ti change. Hut in thia
world it too much happens that a comforta
ble stolidity possesses the sinner, specially
if his sins be fashionable, and the suffer
ings come upon those who must take their
comfort out in doing their duty."
