FOUNTAINS OF WEALTH.
Labor is the living fountain of
| wealth, from out of whose depths
flow the alimental and luxurious
streams of life. As the Maker of all
tilings has moulded one particle ol
water like another, so too, by nature,
is one laborer like another.* Each may
take different positions in life, first up,
then below, changing positions at eve
ry moment of time, fulfilling laws
which are inexplicable by the deepest
philosophy. To-day may see one
basking in the upper-jeweldom of sun
shine; to-morrow, sunk in deep down
recesses where the smiles of plenty, or
the cheering rays of luxury, never
reach. To-day may see the bubble
of circumstance quickly convey one
from beneath, and bear him above for
a time upon its sparkling glitter; to
morrow, memory serves to tell his
sforv—in poverty or distress.
Why one particular globule of wa
ter is upon the surface, and another,
just like it, is at the bottom of the
ocean, bearing its proportion of the
superincumbent weight of others above
—or why one individual glides se
renely on in the pleasures of life with
every want supplied, and another toils
iu tiie scorching sun, overtasked with
labor, bearing the burdens of others,
is beyond the ability of the naturalist
or the logic of the political econo
mist to explain. No other solution
can be given for the cause of such re
lations than can be found in what
would seem to be a natural axiom—
that because an ocean must be made
up of globules of water, hence some
must be below and perform a heavier
uuty than those which of necessity
must be above; or that because a com
munity must be made up of individu
als, lienee some must occupy superior,
and others inferior positions.—Nor
does this necessity grow out of the
normal condition of man; for that is
agriculture limited, too, to the supply
of the bare necessaries of life, and that
agriculture performed with the rudest
implements fashioned by the laborers
themselves.
But little reflection is required to
see that the most valuable services
will always bring the most money;
ami iu this principle lies the hidden
recess from which flows the stream of

LESLIE ISOLD TIE WAITE.
‘Nothing but leaves—leaves—leaves! The gre
things don't know enough to do anything better l
This is the ejaculation of Leslie
Goldthwaite, a young enthusiast
lire cultivation of plants, whose growth
site had watched ardently all Winter
and Spring in expectation of seeing
the blossoms.
This girl is just at the entrance of
young womanhood, full of growing
life, undeveloped in chaiacter, full ol
eager expectations of what moral
bloom would be perfected in her own
nature.
As she goes forth into the
world she experiences a mysterious i
union between her own being and
the “great nerve of creation.” She is !
led to observe her fellow creatures,
to watch their moral faculties and to
draw'a parallel between the bloom of j
Christian graces and the flowers upon
the plants.
Gradually she is brought to discover j
what makes li e beautiful to many
people ugly in personal appear
ance, condemned to lives of labor
and privation, strangers to the luxury
and fashion of life. “They had alway
something to do, something out sid
ol themselves; in their honest, earnest
lives there was little to tempt them
to frivolou8 seif engrossments.”
The great secret ol happiness is first
be forgotten, or passed by, or neglect
ed, by any one who wishes to make
the most money out of his labor or ser
vices, no matter what they may be.
We give an example. Two mechanics
worked upon the same piece of machin
ery; both, from circumstances received
the same pay. One was faithful, pleas
ant in his manners, obliging, polite,
agreeable, worked for the interests of
ids boss, and was careful of material,
and saving of bis time in doing his
work to advantage; and did his work
well. The other did his work equally
well when it was done; but he was
j snappish, was an eye-servant, was dis
obliging, uncivil, cut and slashed ma
terial to loss; took his ease about eve
ry tiling, and was only careful about one
object, and that was to put in his time.
Both received the same amount of
money each pay-day. The general
impression was, that they both were
earning money equally fast, and so
they would have been as long as they
both continued to receive the same
amount of money. The truth turned
out in the end that the first one had
been accumulating standing friends,
influence, character and personal in
terest; while the other stood still, if he
had not lost what the other had gain
ed. The first probably never cast a
111 1 thought of a result further than to do
his duty as a matter of common hon
esty, while the other only had the sim
ple thought of getting his wages for
Ins time put in. These men, then
worked upon no idea of making the
most money that could be made by
their services; for if they had, proba
bly both would have worked better,
and bad they been informed of the
means, both would have beeu in the
he hail brought a large amount ol cus
tom to the house, arid of all he had
sold, no bad debts had resulted. They
came to the conclusion that he was
more valuable to them than the sala
ry of 81,500, and said at once: “We
will make your salary hereafter 82,-
500;” and so he remained, and con
tinued to exert himself still more.
Now let us inquire into the financial
condition of these two salesmen. The
one spent all his salary, for he had
more time on his hands about town,
and less to interest him than the other;
while the other took lodgings near his
store, seldom went anywhere, and
read most of his time while he was
not calculating and figuring about his
business. The result was that he
spent $500, and saved $1,000 of his
salary. The next year, when he re
ceived $2,500, lie spent the same,
while the other salesman spent ail lie
received as before.
It becomes interesting here to make
a calculation on even these low fig
ures. We will make it for two years.
The one had nothing to lay to the
good—the other had 82,000 at the
end of two years, or when he was
twenty-five years old. This, put at
compound interest at seven per cent,
for twenty-five years, or, until he was
fifty, would amount to $16,290, or, if
he had continued to do the same thing
yearly—nam-ly, gain 82,000 until he
was titty years ot age—it would a-
mount to 8131,952; a snug little for
tune on comparatively very small
earnings.
From these examples, which can
be adapted to any conceivable case,
it will be seen where the fountains of
wealth lie. By reflection, the neces
sary qualifications are made apparent
how the most money can be made by
In so far as domestic articles of gen
eral utiiity and convenience, as well as
many household luxuries, were con
cerned, modern nations are not far in
advance of this people, even after the
lapse of many centuries. They manu
factured chairs from the most valua
ble descriptions of wood, which were
models of costly and exquisite work
manship, tastefully ornamented with
carved ivory and the precious metals,
and supplied with soft and luxurious
cushions. The seats and stools de
signed for habitual use rather than
display bore a strong resemblance to
those of bamboo manufacture, and
some were constructed upon the prin
ciple of the ordinary folding camp-
stool. Sofas, lounges, and ottomans,
rivalling the most elaborate articles ot
modern times, were usually found
among the furniture of the wealthy
classes. Their tables, both in form
and structure, were not unlike those
of the present day. We have also sat
isfactory evidence of their acquaitance
with the manufacture of carpets, but
to what state of excellence they attain
ed in this industry we have no means
of ascertaining, as but a single imper
fect specimen, made principally from
wool and liuen, has beeu preserved.
Die bedsteads ysed by the poorer
classes were of very rude construction,
and seem to have been made of pliant
branches of trees, roughly interlaced
with each other; but among the
wealthy the frames were manufactur
ed from irou and bronze, enriched with
elegant devices, and furnished with
luxurious and downy mattrasses. Their
mirrors for the most part were com
posed of highly polished copper, to
which were attached handles elabor
ately decorated. Tbeir culinary uten
sils generally seem to have differed but
tion. It will be observed that vases
occupy, with all nations of antiquity,
the most prominent place among all
ai tides intended either for use or or
nament. But among no people was
there so great a prolusion and variety
as among the Grecians. Every arti
cle was distinguished for remarkable
gracefulness of form and delicacy of
design, and modern art in vain strives
to parallel the singular beauty ot the
specimens antiquarians have procured.
From Greece domestic articles, both
for use and ornament, were introduc
ed among the less polished Romans,
who lavished prodigal sums upon these
skillful articifers. Upon the construc
tion ami decoration of their couches
especially they expended almost fabu
lous amounts. These were not unfre
quently ornamented with gold, silver,
ivory, and tortoise shell. Indeed, on
every article of comfort or of luxury
they were almost boundless in their
extravagance. Frames of carved mar
ble sustained their tables, and their
chairs of state were elaborately chas
ed and ornamented, and the most cost
ly materials were employed in their
fabrication.

The Pardon of Yerkos
From the Penitentiary, and his affida
vit while in the hands of the Grant
men, denouncing his former affidavit
against Hartranft, the Grant candidate
ior Governor, has set all Pennsylvania
in a flame of indignation. The move
ment illustrates the desperation of the
Grantites, who thus, at the 11th hour,
have planned the exculpation of their
candidate for Governor by means of
the affidavit of a Penitentiary convict,
swearing himself pieviously guilty of
perjury, and rewarded for his second
oath by the Governor’s pardon of his
frauds on the State and a consequent
release from a long term in the State
Penitenti ry. The Philadelphia Post,
a Liberal Republican paper, says:
It is believed by many persons that
Grant’s interview with prominent
Philadelphia Hartranft leaders, on
Thursday, and Mr. Swope’s subse
quent visit to Harrisburg, was con
nected with the pardons, and that the
President was cognizant of the whole
proceedings.
The New York Tribune closes some
remarks on the subject as follows :
But the move has been too desper
ate, and to-day from one end of Penn
sylvania to the other the honest pride
of tiie people rises up in righteous in
dignation at this insult to the honor
of their State. The Liberals hail the
movement with undisguised satis
faction, since it will sfiow the people
how necessary reform is in a State
Government where such tamperings
with justice are possible.
Bachelors Attention.—The Ron-
dout (N. Y.) Freeman states that in the
mountains of Siiandaken there are
hundreds of young ladies from the
city boarding during the hot weath
er. One small farm-house in Broad
Street Hollow contained no less than
forty “school ma’ams.” The country
is completely overrun by women, who,
by the aid of exercise and mountain
air, have become as fresh, ruddy and
handsome as any lot of girls one can
see. In the mountain gorges between
Shandaken and Lexington, there is
hardly a house but has a dozen or two.
Most of them are young women who
