Two young men, both of them mechan ice, were married about the same time, and entered upon life with apparently equal prospects, except that one was rather giv en to extravagance and fashion, while the other was more prudent and frugal. Tho wife of the latter however, being of a differ ent turn from her husband, became uneasy because the former, without any superior advantages, made more show than he did, and had many more fine things. She told her husband that his income must be as great as the other's, and that she knew they, were able to appear as well as their neighbor. "I want to do as other people do," was heikall conquering argunient. Her hus band yielded again and again to her entrea ties, although professing that he was not able. At length the more showy neighbor failed ! And seeing their fine things sold under the hammer of the auctioneer, his wife who was far from being destitute of good feelings, began to mistrust whether imitating them, and "doing as otl•er folks --s do," they might not meet a similar fate. She inquired of her husband how his fairs stood. He told her that his expense had exceeded his income, but he hoped to get thro' and pay what he owed. i Before long he was sued for his debt. 4-- Then his wife was in panics! .She knew that his misfortune was chargeable to her folly; although he never reproached her, nor cast any unkind reflections. Disturb ed with conflicting emotions, she tried to plan some new way to get along in thi3 ter rible difficulty! But finding all her endea• vors fruitless, she said to her husband with unfeigned distress. "What shall we do? What can we dot" "Do?" he calmly replied, 4 we must do as other folks do; have our fine things sold under the hammer!" This was enough for her. She had been the begining and end of this common folly, and she was satisfied. From that time he bed no trouble to persuade her to be frugal and prudent. They wore both agreed it: pursuing the same course. And it is al most useless to say that their prosperity was In proportion to their wisdom and prudence. 7 —arford Mercury. PRINTER'S PROVERIIS.-1.

THE Subscriber takes pleasure in an flouncing that he is now prepared to furnish the Farmers of Adams and Franklin Coun• ties with the best HORSE POWER AND THRASHING MACHINES ever put in operation in either of the above counties.— The advantages of the Horse-Power are obvious from the fact, that a much greater velocity of the cylinder of the Machine is acquired by a slower walk of the horses than in any other Machine now in use, and having greater leverage and lees friction requires lighter draught. The superiorill ty of the Thrashing Machine consists in that of Thrashing more grain in any given time with four men to attend it, than the Machines now in use do with seven men to attend them. Tho above powers and Machines are permanently constructed, and will wear much longer than any heretofore offered to the public. The Shops in which they are manufactured are Mount Maria Furnance, near Millerstown, Adams counts', and at Indian Springs, near Waynesboro', Frank lin county, Pa.
