JoiiK. Flattery iz a very powerful stimulant, but its grate strength lays iff bring delikately administered. There iz some men who will take it az they dow hasty puddin' end milk, j ast gap and swallow. Ilonost flattery Btans in the sauiaro lashun to just praza that interest duz to money. Every man iz entitled to the interest on his biz money, and 8 per cent, cf Mat tery won't hurt any man who iz honestly entitled tow tho principal. Flattery alwuz makes a wis9 man humble and kerful, but it haz the same effukt on a phool that a band of musik has on a plough hoss, tho fust timo he hears it. Alios. Doktors aro not all quacks, yu have got v.-rong nahuus about this. Doktors, lawyers and ministers have a hard row to hoe, they havo to deal with tho kredulty, knavery, and foars ov the people, three of the most difficult traits in human nature tow handle. If I wuz a doktor, and understood my bizzaess, I should doltor mipasltvnts, end let the disease take kare ov itself. More folks are kurod this way than enny other. It aint much trouble tow doktor sick folks, but tew doktor the Will ones is bother3tim. If I wuz a lawyer I would quit the bizzness the fust good chance 1 got. If I wuz a minister, and had tew preach the gospel to mi people, whezj religion, nine-tenths ov them, was the result ov thtir fears, and who want wil ling tew give mo but four hundred and liity dollars a year, (half store pay, and tho rest after harves! ) I should resign mi charge, and enter t:iat field ;.z a mis- hionary.

It iz bettar tu lam wisdum bi experi ence than bi precept ; theie is grate risk of being wizo before our time. When I see a j'ung man who is sus picious ov everything he S3es, I think he wants mere watching than one who siiiit afraid of nothing.

There iz 2 things in this world ptsky hard to do, and suit your customers, one iz keeping a rfistrikt skool, and the other iz being a mother-in-law. Enny man, cr woman, who kan kesp a diitnkt nkool, und givd general satis-facti- n, ain't good for nothing. A good distnUt skooltnaster is like an undertaker, dreaded bi everyboddy. It takes a small woman tj be a suc cessful mother-in-law. I don't think, from what I kau learn, that this iz a good year for mothers-in-law, I hear a good deal of complaint about them. There iz only one way tow suckceed in the mother-in-law bizziuess, and that iz, don't run after yuro children, but keep back, and let them hunt ior yu. Gjod mothers-in-law don't liv mutch neartrthan 15 miles ov their children, and ulwus let the children do the belt ov the visiting. Mark. Yu say yu are about tew be gin lite, and want tew begin right, and ju ask me how tew do it. First, az to yure religion, mi advice iz, that you adopt a leetle to a time. Commence with this, "do unto others az yu.would hav them do unto yu." After yu have got this well Unit, I will give yu another desa. The grout trouble with nu beginners iz, they undertake to raizo more religion thu they kn lift, and the kemtqucntz iz, they git discouraged, and lose thtir grip. Too much religion ia tho wor.-,t thing in tho world to lilt. " Az for the bizzness yu intend tofoller, enny thatiz honest, iz honorabel, but I wouldn't be a hesj jockey, for I don't kare how piua a men is, swopping bosses will make him careless. In r ference to gitting married, I hav got but one rule for that, whisti don't vary, ''Marry yung, and marry for luv." This will win seven timts out ov ten, and the other three times are respekta ble blunders to mk. JV. Weekly. If the latest reports from Jjpan be correct, the social and political revolu tion in that country is making most re markable progress. The Mikado seems to have entirely abandoned the policy of exclusiveneus arid isolation which has obtained from time immemorial, and is mingling freely with the people hav ing recently visited a number of foreign residents and found, as is alleged, great satisfaction in the novel association. It is said that tho government is consider ing tho policy of sending twenty-one young ladies, the daughters of Daimios, to this country to ba educated thus fol lowing out the policy r.uder which two or three hundred of tho sons of the no bility havo ahvady been placed in American institutions of learning. A still more significant fdateuieut is to the effect that the Buddhist priests have been informed that their temples will be closed, and. they must enter the army as soldiers, or earn their living iu mechani cal occupations. From all these indica tions, it is by no means unreasonable to anticipate that Japan, within the next quarttr of a century, will undergo a so cial and political revolution more com plete and marvellous than any other of modern times. A crow owned by a farmer in Stanton, Vii., has constituted himself superintend ent of tlu culiuary department of his master's household, and when tho dogs invade the premises, clears them out. He destroys every frog about the well ; allows a mouse no chance for his lite ; drives away hawks from the poultry, and bids fair to act as the beet squirrel dog in the country. With his argus eyes he readily spies a squirrel either upon the fence or upon trees, and, with natural antipathy to tbe whole quirrel tribe, Ids shrill, keen note U readily de tected by his owner, accompanied by rapid darts up and down, and the owner is this led to the game. FARM AND HOUSEHOLD. Butter in Paoks. Tho dairymen of Vv'aBhingtou Territory, for want of tubs and jars, have adopted a method of put ting up and keeping butter which, tho' novel, preeents some features that aro worthy tho attention of tboso having butter packed for family use or for tho retail trado. Tho packing is thus do scribed : All butter is packed in muslin sacks, mado in such form -that the package, whon complete, is a cylinder three or four inches in diameter and from half a foot to a foot in length. The butter goes from the ohurn, as soon as worked over, into the cylindrical bags, made of fine bleached muslin. The packages are then put into large casks containing strong brino with a slight admixture of saltpeter, and by means of weights kept always below tho Burface. The cloth in tegument always protects the butter from any impurities that chance to come in contact with tho package, and being always buried in brine that pi tects it from the action of the air, it has been cscertained by trial that butlorput up in this way will keep sweet longer than in any other way. Besides, it is found easier and cheaper for the manufacturer than to pack either in jars or in firkins. And for the retail er, there is no teliing tho udvantage on the score of safety end convenience. These rolls of butter can lie upon his counter as safe from injury, from dust or other contact, as bars of lead ; can be rolled up for his customer in a sheet of paper with as much propriety cs a bun dle of matches. If the consumer, when he gets home, discovers specks of dust upon the outside of the sack, he can throw it into a pail of pure cold water and take it out clean aud white. As he uses the butter from day to day, with a sharp knife he cuts it off from the end of the roll in slices of thickness suited to his want, and peels off the cloth from the end of tho slice, leaving it in tidy form to place upon the table. Feed axd Treatment of Horses. Hay and oats make the best feed for horses that are obliged to work hard and regularly. If the hay is cut fine and the oais. bruised or ground, the wholo mixed and moistened, the horse will eat his ra tions quicker, digest them sooner, and thus havo mors time for resting aiid re newing his power for labor. Farmers' horses that work little during tha win ter time may be kept cheaper by cut ting and mixing bright straw and hay in equal quantities, and adding a ration of eteamed potatoes or raw carrots. Colts should be ltd liberally on good hay bright clover is best and bruised oats ; give them a roomy box stall in stormy weather and during nights. Lit ter freely, and do not let the manure ac cumulate under them. Sawdust or cpeut tan makes good and convenient bedding ; in cities and villages they are often cheaper than straw. Groom horse3 well and let them have exercise every day ; a run in the yard is excellent. See that stable floors over basements are sound and strong. Arrange the feeding racks so that dust aud hay seed will not fail into the horses' manes or eyes ; tome horsemen build their mangers too high, thus forcing the animal to take an un natural and painful position when cit ing. Farm horst3 Ihut are not worked shculd have their shoes taken off, and those that are driven on the road should be kipt well shod. Slock Journal. Tlir Imported ('Id Discoveries on Lake Superior. The reports of gold discoveries on tho nortti shore of L ike Superior are con firmed from various sources, though it appears probable that some of the stories in relation to the richness of the de posits have been exaggerated that, for in stance, of . gold-bearing quartz worth 0,000 a ton. On the western end and north shore of Lake Shebandowen, which is reached by about forty-eight miles of travel over a splendid Govern ment road from the shores of Lake Supe rior, well denned veins ot gold-bearing quartz, much ot which is decomposed, have been found und traced for several miles. These veins contain, in addition to free gold, galena, very pure silver glance, and iro:i pyrites. Tho eaud in the btreams of this region has been found to cjntin gold, but whether in paying quantities has not yet been ascertained. The silver mining in tho region of Thunder B.iy continues immensely pro ductive. At (silver Islet the quantity of the silver daily ilug out is only limited by the force tho operators are able to employ, and the supply appears to ba luexhaustibie. Uther mines in that re gion are yielding finely. The lands in which silver or gold have been found extend back from tbe lake from fifty 1 3 one hundred miles. U'ie man has pur chased 40,000 acres from tho Canadian Gjvernment r.t one dollar an acre. The total population in the neighborhood of tho mines is about 800; but in the spring tntre will doubtless by an immense rush of fortune-seekers to these remarkable gold aud silver fields. The country is wild and broken, with but little timber, or soil capable ot cultivation. A Florida lir.ilroiul. A Northampton lady who recently weut to St. Augustine, Florida, writes back that the hardtst part of her journ ey was the last fifteen miles before reach ing St. Augustine. They cut tho wood as they went through the woods, and watured the engine by dipping up the water in buckets on the road-side ; when they not up steam enough to fret off, the same hands ran on before to sprinkle sand on the wooden rails, in order to travel the distance of fifteen miles in four and a half hours. She says she was throughly provoked, as the road was built by a Connecticut Yankee and run by niru. I'ttUburgh Chronicle. The new Postmaster-General of Great Britain has been for some time tryin the systom of making; letter-carriers of small boys, who can be employed for about fi.ov per week, while the Depart ment had been paying the men $o. tfte consequence can well be imairiued, It is no uncommon thins to find these youthful cfUcials playing marbles cn the sidewalk, or riding surreptitiously on the back springs of cabs and carriages, while the public are waiting for their letters at home. The Prince of Wales was installed Grand Master of the MasonB of England, a short time sinae, on the occasion of the retirement of the Earl of Zetland from the office. The Prince delivered a very pleasiuz address subsequently, in the course of which he referred in fueling terms to the memory of his uncle, the late Duke of Sussex, as a member and Master of the fraternity. "In tho Slumps" lu California. A correspondent writes from tho " Itedwood" region of 8onoma County, in California : You can see hero what probably can be Been nowhere else in California, to wit, a town built in the stumps. After you come down bolsw Qrocn Valley, tho prairie land along Russian River gradually disappears, and is replaced by belts of redwood, and finally tho bot tom land altogether ceas, and the river winps down very crookedly be tween low redwood mountains to the ocean, btumptown is about ten miles from the saa, and a funny-looking town it is, with a little shnnty and a mighty stump alternately the latter nearly as large as the former, and about twico as numerous. The streets dodge about in a most accommodating manner, for tho respect shown to the stumps by the en gineers and graders is very conspicuous. The problem of finding a given shan ty by its street and number is more dis couraging than a Chinese puzzle, and it is a very bad place for a man who is slightly " bulged" to attempt to navi gato in after nightfall. Most of the redwood trees are so enor mous that they have to be cut off at a height of eight or ten feet from the ground. First, the woodman outs nich es in the tree about as high up as his head, and then censtruots a scaffold on which to stand while chopping. A skill ful chopper has two axes, ono with which to cut through the bark, which is gritty, and would spoil his best axe, and another wherewith to fell the tree. It takes a very long pair of arms and. a long-handled axe to ranch across the " scarf," and happy is that woodman who is ambidextrous and can make a " scarf" as smooth as a saw-cut with either hand, for he is certain of the best wages, and he alone can cut down.with out an assibtant, the largest trees by swinging his axe first in his right then in bis lett hand, and so reaching all the way across. After a half day or so the great monster begins to quiver a little, away up somewhere about the region of toe sun, and at last he bows his head for the fall. A few mile3 above Stumpto wn.is a red wood clearing of a few acres, on which this year there was harvested a crop of wheat, and a curious looking place it was, with the enormous, fire-blackened stumps sticking up all over it like a burned village. Theso stumps must cer tainly occupy a fifth of the space, yet the owner gathered on it about thirty five bushels per acre. But the best use to which these redwood lands can be put is to let them grow up again in forests.
