The Reward of Courtesy.
A few years since, on a radiant spring
nftcrnoiUi, two men, who, from their con
versation, nppeard to Ire foregners, stoopped
before the gue of one of the large workshops
in Philadelphia for the manufacture of loco
motive engines. Entering a small office, the
elder of the two men acquired of the super
intendent if he would permit them to inspect
lho works.
“Yon can pass in, and look about,’! said
the superintendent, vexed apparently, at
bung disturbed’ tW'tbe'perusal of his news
piper.. He then scanned the two strangers
more closely. They were respectably but
plainly clad, and evidently made no profess
ion to official dignity of any kind.
“You must pick your own way gentle
man,” replied the superintendent, “we are
all too busy to attend to every body that
comes along. I’ll thank you not to interrupt
the workmen by asking questions.” It was
not so much the matter as the manner of
this ’ reply, that was offensive to Mr. Wolf
and bis companion. It was spoken with a
c-rminly official assumption of superiority
mingled with contempt for bis visitors, indi
cating a haughty and selfish (temper, on the
part of the speaker.
“I think we wiH not trouble you, said Mr.
Wolf, bowing ; and taking his companion’s
arm they passed out.
“If there’is anythin" 1 heartily dislike, it is
incivility,” said Mr. Wolf, when they were
in the street. “I do not blame the man for
not wishing to show us over the establish
ment ; he is no doubt interrupted by many
heedless visitors, but he might have dissmised
us away belter content with a gracious
lefusal than with an ungracious consent.”
‘•Perhaps,’’ said the other, we shall have
better luck here,” and they stopped before
another workshop of a similar kind. They
were received by a brisk little man, the
head clerk, apparently, who, in reply to
their request to be shown over the establish
m nt, answered, ”0, yes! come with me
g'ltilemen—this way.” So saying, he hur
riod them along the area strewed with iron
bars broken and rusty wheels of iron, frag
ments of old boilers and cylinders, into the
principal workshop. Here without stopping
to explain any one thing, he led the stran
g- rs along, with the evident intention of get-
Ing ritl of them as possible. They paused
where the workmen were riveting external
eastings of u boiler, the clerk looked at his
w i ch, lapped jwith his foot ngiinst an iron
tube, and showed other signs of impatience ;
whetcupon Mr. Wolf remarked,” “we shall
not detain you longer, sir,” and with this he
took his leave.
“That man is an improvement on the
other,” said Mr. Wolf, “all the civility he
has is on the surface ; it does not come from
the heart. We must look further.” The
sirnngera walked on nearly halfamilein
silence, when one of them pointed to an
humble sign, with a picture of a locomotive
engine with a train of cars underneath. It
overtopped a small building not more than
tm feet in height, comm micating with a
yard and workshop. “Look,” said the oh-,
server, “here is a machinist whose name is
not on our list.” “Probably it was thought
100 small a concern for our purpose,” said
his companion. “Nevertheless, let us try
it,” said Mr. Wolf. They entered, and
found at the desk, a middle-aged man, whose
somewhat grim aspect and apton around his
waist, showed that he divided his labors be
tween his workshop and the counting-room.
“We wnnLlo look over your works, if
you*have no objections.”
“It will give me great pleasure to show
you all that is to be seen,” said the mechanic
with a pleased alacrity, ringing a bell, and
telling the bov who entered to take charge of
the office. He then led the way, and Ex
plained to the strangers the whole process of
erecting u locomotive engine. He showed
them how various pans of the machinery
were manufactured, patiently answered all
their questions. He told them the mode of
tubing boilers, by which the power of gen
erating steam was increased, and showed
with what care he provided for security from
• bursting. Two hours passed rapidly away.
The strangers were delighted with the intelfi
gcnce-displayed by the mechanic, and with
his frank, unsuspicious manners. Here is a
man who loves his profession so well, that
he takes.pleasure in explaining its rmsleries
to all who can understand them,” thought
Mr. Wolf.
•‘1 am afraid we have given you n great
deal of trouble,” said the other stranger.”
“Indeed, gentlemen 1 have enjoved your
visit,” said the mechanic, “and 1 shill bo
glad to see you again.”
“Perhaps you may,” said Mr. Wolf, and
the two strangers departed. Five months
elapsed after, as the mechanic whose means
were limited, sal in his office meditating how
hard it was to get business by such large es
tablishments as were his competitors, the
two s'rangers entered. He gave them a
hearty welcome, handed chairs, and all sal
down.
“We come,” said Mr. Wolfe, “wiih n
proposition to you from the Emperor of Rus
sia to visit St. Petersburg.”
“From the Emperor] Impossible!”
“Here are our credentials.”
“But gentlemen,” said the now agitated
mechanic,-“what does this mean ? llow have
1 earned such an honor ?”
“Simply by your straight-forward, cour
tesy and frankness, combined with profes
sional intelligence,” said Mr. Wolf. Because
wo are strangers you did not think it neces
sary -lo treat us with distrust or coldness.
You saw we were really interested in ac
quainting ourselves with your work and you
did not ask us, before extending to us your
civilities, what letters of introduction we
brought. You measured us by the dignities
we have exhibited.”
The mechanic visited St. Petersburg, and
soon afterwards removed his whole establish,
ment. He hid imperial orders for ns many
locomotives as he could construct. He has
lately returned to his own country, and is
still receiving large returns from his Russia
workshop. And all his property grew out
of unselfish civility to two strangers, one of
whom was the secret agent of the Czar of
Russia!

A New Kind of Soap
lias recenlly been invented, which promises to su
persede all other kinds of hard soap. It is used ex
tensively for washing clothes, and possesses the re
markable properly of extracting dirt without boiling
the clothes and without the use of the rubbing board.
The process of washing requires less than half the
time, and only about half the labor, by using this
Patent Soap. This article is peculiarly excellent,
and superior to any thing else called Soap; because
white it saves time and labor, it never rots or in
jures the clothes. It is just the ailicle it is repre
sented to be, and never disappoints the expectations
of purchasers. It docs not take out stains. For

The patentee of this Fence, after numerous trials
and experiments, has finally succeeded in perfecting
apian for the construction • of’Fcncc, which does
away with the.necessity of inserting posts in the
ground. The above Fence is npide to set upon the
natural face of the earth, and by its peculiar forma
tion will conform to the undulal ohs of the ground.
The mechanical mode of its cors^rucliorrconvinces
all who examine it of its super! >ply over anything
.of the kind ever offeree] to the public, as well as of
its durability, simplicity and chhapness. n is so
put together that it is secured Iby means of keys,
which arc easily adjusted, and battens by which it
is kept strained to the groi/ndlsb that no trouble
need be apprehended from winds,
This fence can be built oflumber at SlO per
thousand, for the sum of 50 cents per rod—making
it by far the cheapest fence that can be made; and
the ease with which it can be putlup and taken down,
moved, made into stack pens, dr temporarily
for any purpose the farmer mayi require’ it—no less
than the fact that at each joint an opening can be
made, thus obviating the necessity tor liars or gates
—must render it a universal favorite with the farm
ing class of community. \ ' ’
The Subscriber has purchased the territory com
prising Charleston, Dchnar andiWcllsboro, and will
