Young Mechanics-The Way To. RIO._
We stated last week that few of our me
chanics rose direct from the workshop to
important places of trust in- the Republic,
and we also stated that but a few of the great
many were qualified to fill important situa
tionA even in connection with the trades they
learned. Why is this ? Is it not possible
for mon to be as well educated in the work
shop as anywhere else? Do mechanics not
possess the same abilities as those who fol
low the professions ? Yes. Well then,
why is it they are not in general fit to march
out from the workshop to fill the highest and
most honorable offices in our country ?
The answer is, they do not in general try
to qualify themselves to fulfill their ,proper
duties, as Citizens-of—thirgreat—Repub .
We suppose that our mechanics themselves
would be planetstruck, if it was proposed to
run one of their number for President, but
it is not our object, except in an angular di
rections, to point to political situations—we
. hope the ppint, however, will not be lost.
We have alluded to the absence of a taste
for sound and solid reading among our me
chanics; and we have now to complain of
, the absence era pure and lofty conversation.
, . The majority of our young men belong to
fire or military companies, and during their
• spare moments, their conversations consists
I
more in .what this and that engine can do,
&c., and not about how it can be done. Idle,
vain and frivolous conversation has a very
injurious tendency, like reading bad books.
A pure conversation and gentlemanly dis
cussion of useful questions, has a very ele
vating tendency Young mechanics, we
speak to you, in all earnestness ; if you
wish to rise, you must be enthusiastic about
your business, and in the pursuit of know
ledge connected %vial it. In your spare mo
ments endeavor to seek enjoyment in 'Olt
ing about the principles of your trades, seek
to know the why and the wherefore of evert'-
thing-connected --with_ them, and . whatever_
your hand findeth to do, do it well and with
all your might. Da not be eye servants, do
not use profane language, and give your
selves the best education you possibly can.
Every machinist should learn to draw, so
should every carpenter ; and do not be con
tent until you fully understand, and can
construct every- machine, apparatus oriv hat
ever it may be, and can take charge of and
superintend every branch of business con
nected with your trades. Men possessing
such qualifications are sure to rise. And
• what is to hinder you from possessing such
qualities, along with a character for hones
ty, fidelity, and ability ? Let every one put
this question to his own heart.—Scientific
American.
A Phenomenon.
The editor of the Cortland Democrat, in a
formal valedictory taken leave of that print
fur another field of labor, under circumstan
ces which we shall not venture to state.
We copy his own account of the matter:
'We will now give our readers an idea of
Our reasons for leaving them, and an account
of our luture occupation. You recollect,
perhaps, that we gave a notice a few weeks
since, of'investigating the spiritual mani
festations, or commonly termed 'spirit rap
pings,' and that we stated our belief in re
gard to the 'phenomena.' We have been
in Auburn since then; and upon a thorough
and careful investigation of the subject, we
have come to the further conclusion, that the
manifeStations are not only produced by spir
its out of the flesh, but that they are permit
ted and delegated to communicate with tnnr
ntls GOD, for the vast and inconceivable
exalted purpose of redeeming the world
from bondage and corruption of sin. And
as one of the feeble instruments of God in
this great work, we engage our weak talents,
our time and our all, henceforth and forever,
till the object be accompliShed.
'PAUL, the Apostolic Messenger, directed
us, by means of the to leave our
business in this •plaCe, and remove to
,Au
burn, there to commence and continue the
publication of a paper, to be devoted wholly
and exclusively to this cause. According
lY we have disposed of our interest in the
Democrat, and have purchased in the name
of Peleg S. Cottrell, & Co., a printing office
located in Auburn; where, in a few Weeks,
will be issued the first number of the paper
alluded to.vnder the title (given also by the
•asremas7) of 'SPIRITUAL AND MORAL. Is-
STRUCTOR."rhe paper will contain accounts
of conversations with spirits, the history, de
fence and advocacy of the manifestations,
and articles composed and given entirely by
spiritsiu another state of existence. It will
be issued semi-mouthy, for one dollar per
year.'
That the 'writer is entirely serious in all
he says—st rang; though it may seem—is as
obvious as that he is laboring under a hall
,unciontion, bordering on something more
tearful. Ile goes on tusay that he has been
converted from Infidelity to Christianity,
and from a state of doubt to one of full belief
in the immortality of the soul, 'by means of
the spirit's rappirig.'?
End of a Runaway Match.
itonaway matches do not usually produce
those happy consequences the party gene
rally egpect.. The eery opposite is almost
always the case, notwithstanding the non
sense upon the subject which is common in
the sentimental novels of the day. -Every
.parent wishes to see his daughter properly
and when objections is made, it is
generally from some good cause to be found
In the conduct, habits or principles of the
person 'objected to. The following instance
which we take from a Cincinnai paper, is
full of warning :
.4bess thansa ,year ago, . a young lady
li•hose - name we .need not -mention, mord
tid a young gentleman living in Vicksburg,
named Harrington, and she did so, decided-
Jy will of her parents, who re
fused to let the wedding take place in their
house. The happy pair left immediately
far hdine, where they sper.t the time for a
very agreeably. The lady having
rill con fi dence in her husband, never trot:-
atid•hkirbelrtigniit his business; she knew
that he pctividod‘%Vell, and that enough for
.
her to know. About four months after they
arrived; their house was visited early one
morning by two police officers, for the pur
pose of arresting Mr. 11. for forgery. In
court the case was made plain against him,
and he was sent to the penitentiary.
"The misfortune had such an effect upon
the young wifo that she never left the
room alive, but died of grief in two months
after. Yesterday was seen ascending the
landing. a hearse, containing a coffin, and
carriage following it, in which were.a lady
and gentleman, the father and mother."

Judge Coulter, in the Supreme Court, on
Monday delivered an opinion in Summer's

That knowledge of insolvency at the time of
the judgment, &c., shall itself be evidence
of an intent to evade the act. But if the
debtor be actually insolvent at the time of
giving the judgement, but did not know it
until afterwards, it shall hold good; so that
the validity hangs upon the seienter of the
debtor as to solvency. The knowledge of
the creditor is not important. Decree re-,

State Agricultural Fair.
It will not be forgotten that the State Ag
ricultural Society of Pennsylvania has fixed
Harrisburg as the place and the 23d, 24th
and 25thkof October next, as the time for
their ANNUAL EXHIBITION. There is no
State in the'Union whose climate, soil, and
the habits of whose people afford more am
ple resources than our own for a creditable
exhibition of their skill and industry. There
is nothing raised. VOW!), or manufactured
upon the face of the earth, which is not
more or_less interesting in_the study and
sci,”lce of Agriculture. The farmer, the
horticulturalist, the inventor, the mechan
ic, 'are all cordially and earnestly invited to
contribute and partake in the interest which
will be excited by the occasion ; and especi
ally do we invite the aid, countenance and
presence of our mothers rind daughters upon
-whose-handy-work-and good example we
are so-dependent for all the domestic corn
forts of life.
Arrangements are now being made for
enclosing the grounds, and providing sepa
rate and safe places for all animals and arti
cles which shall be presented for exhibition.
All the canals and railways of the State
will be open free of charge for their trans
portation to Harrisburg.; and visitors will
come and go on them at one-half the usual
rates.
The young men of the State are remind
ed that the Ploughing Match will aill)rd
them an opportunity for the display of their
skill the training of their teams and the fit
ness of their implements.
While we address this communication to
the people of our State, it will not be under
stood that it is designed to exclude the citizen
of other States ; much less to avoid the hon
orable competition which their contributions
may afford. NOW is the time to prepare.
