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 indenende •t!ways busy late and early, had some thing more to do when all had left, and was always found in the store among the first in the morning; was constantly reaching out to get trade and new customers, and keeping an eye on everything that transpired; was uever prying, but always aiding any one when he could, and keeping everything in order as far as possible without interference with the affairs of others; made himself, by his agreea- able and pleasant manners, popular with customers, and with all those en gaged in the house, and by such a course was felt from sellar to garret.

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.

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.
