As honest men, attend and hear The serious fact that times are dear, Who owes a bill, 'tis just as clear As star-light in the winter, Thai he should come without delay That's if he can that bill to pay, And ere he puts his purse away, "Fork over" to the Printer. The Printer's cheek is seldom red, The fine machinery of his head Is working when you arc in bed, Your true and faithful "Mentor;" All dny and night he wears his shoes, And brains to furnish you with news; But men of conscience ne'er refuse To pay the toiling Printer. Tis known, or ought to be, by nil His due6 are scattered and they're small, And if not piid he's bound to full In debt for fuel, bread, rent, or Perhaps his paper; then to square Up with his help a double care Bows down his head now is it fair That you don't pay the Printer! His wife and little prattlers too, Are now depending upon you; And if you pay the score that's due, Necessity can't stint her, 'f !) nnnWR the mole. 'Twill through your conscience eat a hole ! And brand the forehead thus: "io soul! Of him who cheats the Printer. The cats will mew between your feet, The dogs will bile you on the street; And every urchin that you meet, Will roar with voice of Stentor, " Look to your pockets there he goes The chap that wears the Printer's clothes! And proud, though everybody knors The grub, he gnaw'd the Printer." Be simply just, and don't disgrace Yourself, but beg the "Lord of grace," To thaw that harden'd icy "case," That honesty may enter! This done, man will with man act fair, And all will have the "tin" to spare; Then will the "Editorial Chair" Support a well-paid Printer.

No, stranger, yeou re out thar. I tell ycou there's things in this ere book that'll bring yeou right cut of the gall of bitter ness and the bonds of iniquity. There's things in that book that Jesephus never heard tell on.' It was no use, however; we declined purchasing, and the Yankee at length ; bowed himself out A moment afterwards he re-appeared. 'Say, Mister; mought yeou know Mr. P., next door ?' We intimated that such was the fact. 'Well, kin yeou tell me what religion he belongs tew ? Some say he's a Meth odic, some calls him a Swccdenborgian, and another feller says he hankers arter the Morrrons. I'd like tew know what he railly docs belong tew.' 'Why do you inquire?' we asked. Wall, I don't mind telling yeou. Yeou see, I ginerally find eout what church a j man belongs tew, before I try to sell him i a book, because, then, I always let on 1 that I belong to the same church, and that ginerally takes, that does. If I know ' what church a man jines with, I never miss fire selling under them circumstan- J ces. i 'Well, did you make inquiries concern ing our religious tenest?' 'Stranger, I did ; you can bet high on i ' I v. 'Not very successfully, it would appear; for you haven't sold us a book.' 'Wall, no; but ef you kin tell me what church Mr. P. belongs tew, it'll dew just as well.' 'You can't sell him a book. It's no use making the effort.' 'Stranger, I'll bet you hat on it.' 'Well, Mr. P.is a Swedenborgian. Now, try him.' About an hour afterwards, we entered P.'s store. He was walking up and down, using language rather more emphatic than ordinary custom requires, not ap parently addressed to any person in par ticular. 'What's the matter P.?' we inquired. 'Why, a chap came in here to sell the 'Life of Christ' said he was a cousin of Professor Bush, the Swedenborgian divine, and a Swedenborgian himself. Said he'd just sold ray brother Diok a copy, and that Dick sent him to me.' 'And so you bought one?' 'Yes. and Dick was here just now, and says he never saw the man. He's a con founded rascal, the book ain't worth a 1 cent.' t j When P. went home that night, the first object that met his eye, was the 'Life j of Chsist,' lying on the table. 'My dear,' said the lady, 'that's a very trash affair you sent home. 1 don t like it all. It's anything but orthodox.' (P.'s wife is a strict Babtiht.) You don't mean to say you've been buying one too,' said P. producing bis own copy. 'Why, a person called here to-day, say ing he was a member of the th Street Babtist Church; that you sent the book as a compliment to me, and so paid three dollars for it ' P. Stayed to hear no more; be rushed out, and the last we saw of him he was inquiring for a tall pedler, with dust col ored hair and striped breeches. Book pedlers will do well to avoid Mr. P., in their peregrinations, as he has vow ed to immolate the first one that darkens his door. N. Y. Sunday Courier. One likes always to sec an impudent lawyer, whose forte is to banter and bully witnesses, brought up with a round turn by some victim of his ill-mannered bear ing. We heard a recent instance the oth er day, which is worth relating. A case was being tried on Long Island, about the soundness of a horse, in which a cler gyman, not very conversant in such mat ters, was a witness. He was a little con fused in giving bis evidence, and a blust ering fellow of a lawyer, who examined him, at lastexclaimed 'Pra', sir, do you know the difference between a horse and 'cow.'' '1 acKnowieuge my ignorauce, ' replied the clergyman; I hardly know the ' difference between a horse and a cow, or a bully and a bull; only that a bull has horns, and a bully' (bowing in mock-re- spect to the pettifogger) 'luckily for mo, has none !' 'You can retire, sir,' said the lawyer; 'I've no further questions to ask you !' N. Y. Dutchman. there,' returned the Jew. A Fortunate Kiss. In the University of Upsala in Swe den, livod a young student, a lonely youth with a great love for studies, but without means for pursuing them. He was poor and without connections. Still he studied, lived in great poverty, but keeping up a cheerful heart and trying not to look at the future, which looked so grimly at him. His good humor and good qualities made him beloved by his young comrades. Once he was standing with some of them in the great square of Upsala, whil ing away an hour of leisure, when the at tention of the young man was arrested by a very young, elegant lady, who, at the side of an elderly one, walked slowly o ver the place. It was tho daughter of the governor of Upsala, living in the city, and tho lady with her was her governess. She was generally known for her good ness and gentleness of character, and was looked upou with admiration by the stu dents. As the young men now stood gaz ing at her, as she passed on a graceful vision; one of them exclaimed, 'Well, it would be worth something to have a kiss from such a mouth.' The poor student, the hero of our sto ry, who was looking intently on that pure and angellic face, exclaimed, as if by in spiration : 'Well, I think I could have it.' 'What !' cried his friends, in a chorus, 'are you crazy? Do you know her?' 'Not at all,' he answered; 'but I think she would kiss me now if I asked her.' 4 What in this place, before all our eyes?' 'In this place, before your eyes.' 'Freely?' 'Freely.' 'Well, if she will give you a kiss in that manner, I will give you a thousand dol lars I' exclaimed one of tho party. 'And 1 1' 'And I !' cried three or four others; for it so happened that several rich young men were in the group, and bets ran high on so improbable an event; and the challenge was made and received, in less time than we take to relate it. Our, hero, (my authority tells not whether he was handsome or plain; I have mT peculiar ideas for believing ho was rather plain, but singularly good looking at the same time) our hero immediately walked off to the young lady and said Mein frulien, my fortune is in your hands. She looked at him in astonishment, but arrested her steps. He proceeded to state his name and condition, his aspirations, and related simply and truly what had passed between him and his companions. The young lady listened attentively, and when he ceased to speak, she said blushingly, but with great sweetness, "If by so little a thing so much good can be effected, it would be foolish for me to re fuse your request;' and she kissed the young man publicly in the open square. Next day the student was sent for by the Governor. He wanted to see the man who had dared to seek a kiss from his daughter in that way, and whom she had consented to kisB so. He received him with a scrutinizing brow, but after an hour's conversation was so pleased with him, that he invited him to dine at bi3 ta ble during bis studies at Upsala. Our young friend now pursued his studies in a manner which soon made him regarded as the most promising scholar in the University. Three years were not passed after the day of the first kiss, when the young man was allowed to give a sec ond to the daughter of the Governor, as his intended bride. He became later one of the greatest scholars in Sweden, as much respected for his learning as for his character. His works will endure forever among tho works of "science, and from this happy u nion sprang a family well known in Swe den at the present day, and whose wealth of fortune and high position in society are regarded as small things, compared with wealth of goodness and love. Frcderilca Bremer. Swearing. The California Christian Advocate says, 'An intelligent lady of our acquaintance, whose little boy was begin ning to swear, anxious to express to her child her horror of profanity, hit upon the novel process of washing out his mouth with soap-suds whenever he swore. It was an effectual cure. The boy under stood his mother's sense of tho corruption of an oath, which, with the taste of the suds, produced the desired result.' The practice, if universally adopted, would raise the price of soap. How to Cure Galls from the Harness or Saddle. Major Long, in his vafuable account of his expedition to the Rocky Mountains, says that his party found White lead moistened with milk, to succeed better than anything else in preventing the bad effects of tbe galls on the horse's back jn their march over the plains that border the mountains. Its effect in soothing the irritated and inflamed surface was ad mirable.

' Can't be helped,' is one of the thous and convenient phrases with which men cheat and decieve themselves. It i3 one in which the helpless and the idle take refuge as their last and only comfort it can't be helped ! Your energetic man is ' for helping everything. If he sees an ( evil, and clearly discerns its cause, he is for taking steps forthwith to remove it. J He busies himself with way and means, ; j . , j , j i devises practical plans and methods, and ' ii r n . i,,k, will not let the world rest until be has ,' Ann ,n,: i rru- dono soinetbintr in a remedial way. ine indolent man spares himself all this trou- ble. . He will not. He sits with his arms folded, and is ready, with his unvarying observation. 'It can't be helped!' as much as to say 'If it is it ought to be, and wo need not bestir ourselves to alter it.' Wash your face, you dirty little social boy, you are vile and repulsive, and vi cious, by reason of your neglect of clean liness. 'It oan't be helped !' Educate your children, train them up in virtuous habits, teach them to be industrious, obe dient, frugal and thoughtful, you thought less communities for they are now grow ing up vicious, ignorant, and careless, a source of future peril to the nation. 'It can't be helped !' But it can be helped. Every evil can be abated, every nuisance got rid of, every abomination swept away; though this will never be done by the 'can't be helped' people. Man is not help less, but can both help himself and others. He can act individually and unitedly a gainst wrong and evil. He has the pow er to abate and eventually uproot tbem. Bat, alas ! the greatest obstacle of all in the way of such beneficial action is the feeling and disposition out of which arised the miserable, puling, and ejaculation of 'It can't be helped !' The Speed of Eailway Cars. Many of the accidents which happen to persons attempting to cross railroads, are the result of ignorance of the velocity of the iron horse when fairly under way. A writer in the Hartford Courant gives some interesting facts which it may be well to bear in mind : "It seems almost incredible that as we glide swiftly along, the elegantly furnish ed car moves twice its length in a second of time about seventy-four feet. At this velocity, we find that the locomotive driv ingwheels, six feet in diameter, make four revolutions per second. It is no idle piston-rod that traverses the cylinder thus eight times per second." "If a man with a horse and carriage upon an unimportant road in a country town should approach and cross the track at the speed of six miles an hour, which would be crossing rapidly, an express train approaching at that moment would move towards him two hundred and fifty seven feet while he was in the act of cross ing a distance barely sufficient to ulear the horse and vehicle. If the horse was mov ing at a rate no faster than a walk, as the track is usually crossed, the train would move towards him, while in the act of crossing, more than five hundred feet. This fact accounts for the many accidents at such points. The person driving, thinks he may cross because the train is a few rods distant." "How compares the highest speed of the train with the velocity of sound ? When the whistle is opened at tho eighty rod "whistle post" the train will advance near one hundred feet before the sound of the whistle traverses the distance to, and is heard at the crossing. The velocity ex i,;r,ia Dr. J. L. Comstock, the well known auth- CUUU3 U1U lllliUL Ui mauY ' j or of several philosophical works, inform ed tho writer that he was recently pass ing through Western New York when a train actually run down and killed a com mon hawk. The train was stopped, and the gamo so rarely captured, was se cured." Flour Returned. The schooner Sussex, at Baltimore, from Laeuavra, brought back 300 bbls. aDd 300 half bbls. of flour, being part of her outward cargo. This Hour was ship - ped early in June when the current pri ces were from 810 75 to 10 87 i per bbl. At Laguayra it would not command with in 20 per cent, of its cost, and it was sent back to Baltimore in the hope of finding a better market, but which, with the ad ditional charges, will doubtless cause a less of near 50 pur cent.

Hereof fail not School Life. I am convinced from my own recollec tions, and from all I have learned from experienced teachers in large school-, tnai one of tho most fatal mistakes in the train ing of children, has been too early separ- ation of the sexes. I say has been, be cause I find that everywhere this most f dangerous prejudice has been giving way before the light ot truth and a more gen-1 wealth, still tnc carrying iraue oi luu oral acquaintance with that primal law of country can be accommodated, and we are nature, which ought to teach us that the not willing to be cheated out of the value more we can assimilate on a large scale tho of our public improvements by a corpora public to the domestic training, the bet- tion which has grown up through our care, ter for all. There exists still, the impres- and prospered through our indulgence." sion in the higher classes especially that in early, education, the mixture of two sexes would tend to make the gird j masculine and the boys effeminate, but experience miows us that it is all the oth er way. Boys learn a manly and protcc- ting tenderness, aud tho girls become -t once more femiuino and more truthful. Where this association has begun ear - ly enough, that is, before five years old, and has been continued till about ten or twel ve, it has uniformly worked well. On this point tho evidence is unanimous and decisive. So long ago as 1812, Fran- cis Homer, in describing a school he vis ited at Enmorc, near Bndgewatcr, speaks with approbation of the boys and the girls standing up together in the same class. It i3 the first mention, I find, of this in novation on the old collegiate or chanty school ol plan, itself a continuation of the moul liish discipline. He says : " 1 like much tho placing of the boys and girls ; together at an early ago. It gave the , boys a new spur of emulation.' hen L ! have seen a class of girls standing up to-. requiring perpetual I flirt mfmror. - - , . , JLU UUUI " mf tJ 1 aCCUStOmCQ IO mhuu uy vuvu, ...v.. .0 little or nothing of this.' They are bright - ""0,i? nnd botlnp bahavcd: there is U IUUHUI -- - I 'a kind of mutual influence working for good; and if there be emulation, it is not mingled with envy or jealously. Mia- j chief, such as as might be apprehended, i3, tu luia ease, lar less jikuij- iu iuwk m.iu i where boys and girls, habitually separa lcu uom ay, are nr.i tnrowu wl-ui er, just at the age when the feelings are first awakened and the association has all the excitement of novelty. A very intelligent schoolmaster assured me that he has had more trouble with a class of fifty boys than with a school of three hundred boys and girls together, (in the midst of which I found-him,) and that there were no inconveniences resulting which a wise and careful and efficient su nerintendeuce could not control. "Thero j sa; ie not 0iv more emulation, ciusseS the two classes may be safely and advantageously associated, yet havo ! a sort of horror of the idea of such an in novation in schools of the higher classes. One would like to know the reason for such a distinctiou, instead of being en countered, as i3 usual, by a sneer or a vilo inuendo. The Public Works and the Kaihroad.

"When I firt heard this charge made. I thought it untrue, but I am now con vinced that there is some reason for ma king it. I am alo informed on goal au thority, that the Attorney General, under the direction of the Governor, has in quired of the Raiiroad Company in re gard to these charges, and that the Com pany has admitted that there is some truth in them, but say "they arc not so bad a3 represented." The Attorney General has demanded an explicit an swer, and the Company has fixed an ear ly day for giving their version of the mat ter. You may rest assured that the Gov ernor has determined to probe the mat ter to the bottom, (in which he will bo sustained by the people) and will call to his aid all the power of the law to stop any such abuses. If true, a more illegal act was never committed, and the Direc tors of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany will find, when it is perhaps too late, that they will have raised a storm of pop ular indignation before which they will be hurled from office, as chaff before tho angry wind, and their chartered rights, and ill-gotten possessions resumed by the Commonwealth.
