The Philadelphia Morning Tost refers as follows to the damages attending the use of kerosene. We heartily wish that the article might be read in every family, and each family unite in a petition to the Legislature for suitable protection : "Prof. Chandler, in his report to the New York Uoard of Health says that out of seventy-nine samples of Keresoeoc oil purchased at various places in the city, but oue was found to be fit for use. The oil bought at a shop in East Broadway, a part of the city where proportionately as little gas and as much oil is used by pri vate families as in aoy part of the world, contained ten parts of burning oil and ninety parts cf explosive oil ! The pro fessor remarked that gunpowder would be safer in a land than this oil, because the powder would not ignite until the fire, by some accident got to it, but the vola tile and gaseous part of the oil is seeking the Came of the lamp as long as it is burnt. There is no reason to suppose that the kerosene oil in New York is any worse than much that is sold in our city. Of course, those who are in good circum stances can afford to buy a properly re fiued oil, which is considered safe, but this class use but little of it, preferiug It is the poor who want kerosene . ,J(j everything eUe just as they can get M t wh() t:ikc lhs illipure demon into their houf.es and put in its power their wives, children aud possessions.

This course, by recent action of the courts, is orieu to the public, aud ciiirht le the beginning of reform.

As this is the season for drinking cider and eatinguuts.it may not be out of Medical oicn advite that salt should be taken with nuts especially when eaten at night. One time, says a writer, while 'enjoying a v.sit 110:11 an ingnsnman, hickory nuts were served in the eveniug, when my English friend called for salt, .stating that he knew of a case of woman j eating heartily of nuts in the evening, who was taken violently ih.

Ploughing up Raw Soil We sometimes hear farmers remark, that ploughing deep, they get less grain j that brining up the new yellow soil, their crops suffer. It would be strange if this were not the case ; for thi3 soil, even if mellow, is raw, just like manure when it is "green," or "long." It is not yet con verted or changed into plant food. It needs just what the long manure needs to be changed by the heat and the air that is, decomposed or rotten. When the tcp soil is less fertile then it used to be when the land was first tilled, you may rest assured that this under is always better than the upper soil, be cause the upper has deterisirated, while the under has not, but rather improved. It is, therefore, unadvisable, nay, suici dal in some soils, to turn up deeply the underground in the spring or in the fall at sowing time. The cold cheerless ground will not help the grain and were it not for the other soil mixed it, an tl most total failure would be the result. But turn it up in the fall, and let the frost and the elements take hold of it, and you will have another soil ; in it is turned into manure, a good part of it. ' A little lime mixed with it, scattered, and bar rowed in, or manure, or both, would fa cilitate the procees. In the spring sow, either with or without another ploughing and vou will find no more occasion to complain. We have great draw upon from below, but managing.

Sherman and this ona hs tells himself : The Lientenant-General, as is now well known, is not the neatest of mortals, and oue day an intimate friend, in the army of the Tennessee, asked him why he dress ed so. "I'll tell you," said the genertl. "When I was a second-lieutenant, I was ordered one day to Washington city, and wentin allthe glory of abran new uniform, I was standing in front of the hotel sun ning myself, and quietly smoking my ci gar, vrl,en I became aware that I had at tracted the attention of a cumber of small boys, who gathered arcund in such num bcrs.and with such adnairingcauntcnance3 upturned to mine, that I could not bot no tice them. As I did so, one of the oldest of them spoke up in a loud voice and ask ed, "Mister, where is your engine goin' to squirt V Gen, Sherman has never been guil ty of a completely new uniform since ; he buys his uniforms in detachments, and wears them out iu instalments. A Puzzled Yankee. Jinks tells a good story of a man on a Mississippi steamer who was questioned by a Yankee. The gentleman, to humor the follow, replied to all the questions straight forwardly until the inquisitor was fairly puzzled for an interrogatory. At last he inquired "Look here, Squire where was ycou bom?" "I was born," said the victim, "In Boston, Tremont St., No. 44, left hand ! tide, on the 1st. day of August, 1840, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon ; physician, i Dr. Warren; nurse, Sally Benjamin." laukce was answered completely, lor a moment he was struck. Soon, however, his face brightened, and he quickly said. "Yeas ; wall, I calculate you dontl re- . collect whether it was a frame or a brick ! house, dew ye ?" I o- ! Carefully Brought Up. A pious old clergyman, while wending i his way to his church one Sunday morn ! iug, caught sight of the two sons of one of his parishioners, going into the woods, evidently for the purpose of hunting. Feeling certaiu that anything like direct remonstrance with the young gentlemen themselves would scarcely turn them from their ways, he waited until after "preach ing," and sought the old geutlcman, their father. After recounting the circum stances of meeting Billy and Sammy as he had done, he closed an affecting appeal by inquiring of their father why they had not been "brought up in the fear of the Lord?" "Fear of the Lord, person fear of the Lord ! Why, they hav 1 They're so 'fear ed of him now they dassent go out Sun day without double-bar'l'd thot guns on their shoulders 1" They have an extraordinary associa tion of ladies in Clyde, Ohio, called a "Knitting Machine," which, without warning, mirches into a drinking or bil- j lard saloon, take3 possession of the seat?, j and quietly settles down to knitting. Last Saturday night the ladies of Clyde ; met at albridge s billiard room, and at once commenced knitting. The usual business of the place was, of course, stop ped until the men present went to smok ing furiously, when the ladies were obli ged, after a time, to leave. Y. W. Granger's saloon was aUo visited, but here, when the men proposed to smoko, the proprietor refused the materials, say ing the women were welcome to the use of the saloon if they wanted it. The ter minal proposition is "to knit all the li quor sellers out of town." Charles S. Shaw, aged 10 ycBrs, of Minat started from his home on the 15th of October last to walk to Lincoln township, Iowa.

An erchauge has the following : Don't buy a piano for your daughters while your sous need a plow. Don't let your horses be seen standing much at the tavern door; it don't look right. Don't give the merchants a chance to dun you. Prompt payments make inde pendent men. Keep good fences, especially line fen ces ; they promote good feeling among neighbors. A decent substantial clothing for your children makes tliem think better of them selves, and keep3 the doctors away. Don't starve your land ; if you do, you will grow lean. Don't buy patent rights to sell again. Don't become surety for him who waits for the sheriff, Buy a farm wagon befcre a fine car riage. If you have a yoke of oxen, don't be ashamed of them and give ycur note for a span of horses. Don't run for constable ; you may get it and let the plow stand. Teach your boys to look up and for ward, never down or backward. Don't leave to memory what should be written ; it makes law suit3. When the labors of the day are past let good books and newspapers invite the youDgstera to the sittiug room. If a man is so situated that he cannot be happy in bis family relations, ho will not enjoy happiness at all. Man mast cultivate, therefore, aud look for this great end of his labors at home in the bosom of his wife aud in the affection of bis children. Around his own hearth in the presence of a loving family, the husband aud father, himself the affection ate head of the household, cannot be oth erwise than happy. He ha3 no competi tion in business there, no oppoaiug can didates for honors, uo grasping, unscru pulous enemy. w. ii.J i jjC3SlU, IOC CCiCUraicU UCimau, puci, was remarkable for frequent absence of j mind.

INAUGURAL ADDRESS. Citizen- or the United States: Your HiiS'rages haying elected me to the office of Pres ident of the United Steten, I have, in conformi ty with the Constitu'ion cf ih? country, taken the oath of oflice prescribed therein. I t.ike this oath without mkiital rere zvalion, and with the determination to do to the bet of ijt abil ity all that it requires cf me. The responsibil ities of the position I feci, but accept them with out fear. The o3ice has come to mo unsought. I coiiimence its dutic3 unirammeled. I bring io it a conscientious detire and determination to fill it, to the best of my ability, to the Kati frx.icn cf the people. O.i all questions agita ting the vjblic mind, I will always exprerw my vitws to Congress, and urge them according to my judgment, and when 1 think it adfisable, will exercise the constitutional privilege cf in terposing a veto to defeat measures which I oppose. But all laws will be faithfully exe cuted, whether they meet my approval or not. I shall on all subjects have a polior to re- commened none to enforce against the will of the people. Laws are to govern all alike ; those opposed to as well as those in favor of them. I know no method to secure the repeal of bad or obnoxious laws so elective as their stringent execution. The country having just emerged from, a great rebellion, many questions will eome te fore it ibr settlement in the nert four years which preceding Administrations have never had to deal with, in meeting these, it is de sirable that they should be appreciated calmly, without prejuaice, hate, or sectional pride, re membering that the greatest good to the great est number in the object to be attained. This require security of person, property, and for religious and political opinion in every part of our common country, without regard to lo cal prejudice. All laws to secure this end will rective my be.t efforts for their enforcement. A great debt has boon contracted in secur ing to us and cur p-osterity the Union. The payment of thi principal and interest as rell as the return to a apecie basis, as soon as it can'be accomplished without material de teriment to the debtor clas or to the country at large, must b provided for. To protect the national honor, every dollor of Government indebtedness should be paid In gold, unless otherwise expressly stipulated in the contract. Let it be understood that no repudialcr of one farthing of our publio debt will be trusted in public pdaee, and it will go far towards streng thening a credit wlm-h ought to be the Lest m the world, and will ultimately enable us to re place the debt with bonds bearing Jcs interest than we now pay. To this should bj added a faithful collection of the Kevenue, a strict ac countability to the Treasury for every dollar collected, and the greatest practicable retrench ment in expenditure in every department of Government H hen we compare the paying I 1. ; it ' 1 viic luuliij nun null iw.i C4:ii ;.. ,rvrtv from I Vn- i-P.M a nf w:ir. but W)tm to emergcj I trust, into greater prosperity than ever before with its paying capacity twenty-five years ago, and calculate what it probably will be twenty-five years hence, who can doubt the feasibihtv of paving every dol- thon willl mora piWe we now p:lv for use. iLSS luxuries?

The nation should follow the same rule. A prostrate commerce is to be rebuilt ' and all industries encouraged.

Legislation upon this sub ject may not be necessary now, nor even advis able, but it will be when the civil law is mora fullv restored in all parts of the country and trade resumes its wonted channels. It will be my endeavor to execute all laws in good faith; to collect all revenues assessed, and to have them properly accounted for and economically disbursed. Twill to the best of my ability ap point to office only those who will carry out this design. In regard to foreign policy, I wor.ld deal, with nations as equitable law requires indK viduals to deal with each other, and I would protect the law-abiding citizens, whether of native or of foreign bisrtb, wherever bis rights are jeopardised or the flag of our country floats.. I would respect the rights of all nations, dc-, manding equal respect for our own. If others depart from this rule in their dealings with us,, we may be compelled to follew their precedents. The treatment of the original occupants of.' the land, the Indian, is one deserving of care ful study. I will favor any course toward, them which tends to their civilization, Chirs-. tianization, and ultimate citizenship. The question of suffrage is one which Li like-, ly to agitate the public so long as a portion of' the citizens of the nation are excluded from its. privilege in any State. It seems to re very desirable that ibis question shou'd be settled now, and I entertain the hope and express the desire that it may be by the ratification of the loth article of Amendment to the Constitution. In conclusion, I ask patient forbearance one to wards another, throughout the land, and a determined effort on the part of every citizen to do his share towards cementing a happy Union, and I ark the prayers of the nation to. Almighty Gcd in behalf of this happy consuni-. mation. TO THE WHITE HOUSE. The inaugural over, a salute of 21 guns wss fired by a battery near the Capitol, and. the new President, nrm-in-arm with Senator Cragin, joined tha precession, which escorts, ed him to his future residence, the White ; House. The President entered his carriane from a private entrance, and as he rode along the line, cheer after cheer greeted him from the thousands who had participated in the pre-- cession. After the ceremonies the procession, which , extended from the Treasury building to the Capitol, and was fifty-five minutes in passing a given point, was re-formed and proceeded to the White House, acccmpained by the crowds cf people. Gen.
