Leisure Moments.
The people of New England have
learned to make money —and much
night be learned by the Southern pen
pie from the manner of doing business
here —concert of action, or union. I
v intuit give it the proper name, but
tdis is idea : That a body of men, many
or tew, agree to unite, upon a certain
business, for instance, a lew men. per
haps all, have some capital, and wish
to manufacture something, say chairs ;
they put all their force into that busi
ness. thev get machinery and tools and
buildings, and then hands to woik
with themselves, and perhaps have one
<>r two hundroJ hands, or more —each
one becomes an expert in someone
pirlieular ‘branch of making a chair,
and the fact is. they are all experts
'i’ne machinery and tools cost but lit
tle more than would be required lor a
d< z'M hands, and the chairs can be
nn’de so cheap that they can lie sent
one hundred miles by rail to Boston,
and sold wholesale lo a merchant here,
a id lie sells ihem at a good per cent to
some Southern merchant, and they go
t * Savannah, and then 300 miles again
op in Georgia ; and so of bed-steads, ta
bles, scytliesneads, buckets, tubs. &c.
An expert will turn t il the rounds in
:i split bottom chair in from tbrre to
i ur minutes, one hundred and -fifty
per hour, the posts in a!.out the same
t i e, sav ten minutes f».r turning all,
te 1 more for hori ig, a:i 1 anoth-r leu
tor another to put it together. Su alter
til* timber is ready to w rk, thirty
minutes will make it ready to bottom.

LEISURE 11'iURS CONTINUED IN BOSTON.
Os the horse Railroads L mentioned
the cars run on Sabbath, but pctlVnps
not more than one fifth as many trips
are made as on week days; many
places they average more than one per
minute—there are upwards of forty
Horse Railroads, and more than cne
thousand streets.
To give so«ie idea of the bttsinses of
Boston, I wtfl -note some of Uie priori'
pal branches : >
There are one (Kindred and thirty !
in ws papers and periodicals, and forty j
six National Banks, (more than 200
v , l
in the State of Massachusetts.)
Thirty-two Insurance Companies in
the city, and fifty-four agencies-of l:'*.
Companies from elsewhere ; twejuv
live hundred Express Companies, of|
‘vliielt Adams’ is one : five hundred
manufacturing Companies, elsewhere
that have offices here. ; four hundred
and fitly ( onimission merchants ; six
hundred Counsellors, or Luwvers ;
li'e hundred Physicians ; six hundred
w nolosale retail Grocers ; four bun -
dled Brokers ; six hundred market
,lU ll * Pfottuce £z provision dealers ;
*v,» hundred teache rs of private schools,
am! fivc lIUII ! «d Boot, Shoe and leath
er dealers.
, *" e :,lmvp arp only a few of the
crouches of husir.e s in Boston. I
1' ivo though, it urgh, be a good iJc“
for Southern men to spend seme time'
iiete to g( ian insbhl into business,
Mid tl;e best manner of eonducting t r , i
I lie could i»nlv keep clear ol the poi.
-nn of the bins. f«.r this is the place
where they grow.
It does serm exert dinglv strange
that preachers North, or in this region ;
should have so little fife, so little zeal* [
and particularly Methodist preachers. 1
'die contrast is wonderful when com-i
!
pared with live South : and the question j
arises a thousand times why is it so !
There is only one answer that 1 can
give, or that apnoars at all reasonable,
and thru is the lile ami power of Chris
tianity is dead ami gone-. I have been
twice to the Broomfield Church, and
mice lo the new Trinity Church, not
yet finished, near the Bunker II if
Moi u.nent, heard the M. E. they call
themselves, but they do not deserve
the name. The singing by the choir
is good theatrical performance ol the
kind. The Church seems dumb, and
every choir lets the artificial god per
form mure than half of the music. —
So service commences with prayer ; 1
mean when we expect priyer not one
in the house kneels ; one in ten per
haps lean the head forward, and the
.Minister stands erect, and indeed H is
more rn mly and becoming, 1 think,
than to see him go out several feet to
get the kneeling stool, some 12 or 15
itfclies high, after he says let us pray,
while the Congregation is waiting on
him anti as gracefully get his knees on
it as he can. Now, 1 don't go to
Church to look at such things, ami
to make remarks about it. I went with
as pure motives to these Churches as I
ever went any place. But alter being
at Broomfield Church two JSabbaihs, I
thought 1 would try some other place
where I could he mure benefiltcd. 1
I
then went to Ur, E. N. Kirk’s a Con
crejiuinmaiist—li-ard a young mail
make rather a poor effort—went in the
afternoon to hear Prof, Slone lecture
- —that was good—on the lllh chapter
of Matthew. Next Sunday, went
again to hear Dr. Kirk, but had to stand
and wait until the congregation were
seated, and my legs ached exceeding-
ly, and services began before I could
get a sent, and then it was so far back
that I could not hear, and l said to
myself. this is rny last trip here. —
Next, to new Trinity where I was told
there was a good preacher—one of the
very (rest —and I shall change my
mind il Igo there again. But to the
prayer ; well, some parts were appro
pr; :te, but too lame and lifeless, and
there must always be a portion lor the
Nation, with an allusion, either direct,
or indirect, to the peculiar condition
of things at the seat of government,
never forgetting to make it known
which way their sympathies run. —
They pray thut justice may be done
in the trial now in progress, but it is
no use to talk, or write it, for the fact
is seen and read of all men who will
see at all, that justice is not wanted.
They care nothing for justice and right,
it is success, power—power, over a
down‘trodden people—power to hold
the reigns of government ad infinitum.
This general desire is manifested on
all public occasions. 'l'here is scarce
ly a sermon or a fast day, or Sabbath,
but wh it it i* seen or heard ; and it
sticks out in Gough’s Lectures—a roan
can’t be popular here without sticking
out his displeasure at Johnson. But
1 am still wandering ; it is expected
that ti e multitude would do thus, but
men professing to have wisdom from
above, should stoop to pander to the
unholy crowd, in a prayer to the ruler
of the universe, is too much.
Text —“Is not the life more than
meat and the body more than rai
ment ?” dear me, but it was poor—
poor in every way —one ofthe weakest
i ever heard—poor and weak-—he
made happiness the opposite of joy and
kept that idea so the list. I had
thought that when a man was exceed
ingly happy, that his j*>y was full ;
but 1 have no dictionary, nor have not
had lately, and I find my sell forgetting
so much that sometimes l mar- to state
anything. Os course he, the preach
er, has dictionaries, and all needlull
books and opportunities to know, and
I will not attempt to follow him further
now.
Boston is filled with infidelity. I
don’t know but what one half of the
population are spiritualists ; but the
; people of the South don’t know what
I that is, and I hope md pray that they
, never may know any tiling more about
il than just to believe that it is infidel
tv, down-wight, buier, scoffing infidel
ity. Mv thoughts will run forward
sometimes as well as backwards—what
, is Boston going to be in atunher gen
eration ? What is New England go
ing to he, with the start in wickedness
and infidelity that it has now got. 1
can tell somethings I eou-ld not put on
paper. There is a countless number
of schools here, as in nil cities, called
“places of amusement,” where all the
youth can attend, and from the hand
hills aud circulars every wheue io he
seen. 1 am assured the devil’* work is
done as well us. if he was theiM in per
, son, the young are learning tierv
night. I have not been to any place
t o look at sin— can see enough in th R

Bullock “Relieved.” —The an
nonr.cmnaut that the Senate of -the
United States on Thursday passed a
bill relieving “Governor” K. B. Bul
lock of I is political disabilities and al
lowing him to hold office without tak

ruled off the track as ineligible ! Bul
1. ck may have been taised up in Mas
sachusetts and there taught that such
tricks were reputable anil fair in poii~
tic-;, but Southern white men entertain
different notions. The excuse, which
will doubtless he urged, that the test
oath from taking which he is relieved is
a different one from that required of
Judge Irwin, is a miserable pretext. —
it only goes t » show that a disability
under which Judge Irwin might he said
to labor was insisted on as a liar to his
election, while no notice w«s taken of
one under which ho'li he and Bollock
we _ c disqualified. The friends of Bul
lock prevailed on the District Com
mander to make a discrimination in
the tests that would rule off only Ir
win and iet Bullock continue to run ;
bu s now, alter the election, Bullock
finds il necessary to procure relief from
a disqualification which existed as well
before as a'ter his election. It is a dir
ty piece of business for all engaged in
it, and a characteristic incident in the
chapter of abstmli ies and outrages that
makes up tire history of Congrrasternal

sunshine, blue sky and happiness
wherever she goes. Her path is one
of delicious roses, peifutne and beauty.
[She is a sweet poem written in rare

cream and then butter. Her words
float around the ear like music, birds
of Paradise, or the perfumes of the

would lose its truest attraction, the
church its finest reliance, and young
men the very best comforters-and com.

strain the vicious and strengthen the
faint-hearted. Wherever yon find the
l , virtuous woman, you also find fireside

A Sdiaolbay’s C'ouiposiiiosi.
Corns are of two kinds, vegetable
and animal, Vegetable corn grow in
rows, and animal corn grows on toes.
There are several kinds of corn ; there
is unicorn, capricorn corn-dodgers,
field corn, and toe corn, which is the
corn you feel most. It is said, I be
lieve, that gophers like corn, but per*
sons having corns do not like to “go
far” if they can help it. (.'urns have
kernels, and some Colonels have corns
Vegetable corns grow on ears, but an
imal corn grow on the feet, at the oth
er end of the body. Another kind of
corn* is acorns, these grow on ok*, but
there is no hoax about the corn. 'The
acorn is a corn with an indefinite ar
ticle, lull the toe corn is a very definite
article indeed. 'Try it and see. Many
a man, when he has a corn, wishes it
was an acorn. Folks that have corns
sometimes send Ibr a doctor, and il the
doctor himself is corned, he won’t
probably do so well as if he isn’t.—
The doctors say that corns are produc
ed by tight boots and shoes, which is
probably the reason why when a man
is tight they say he is corned. If a
firmer manages well, he can get a good
deal of corn on one acre, but I know
of a farmer that has one corn that
makes the biggest acher on his farm.
’The bigger crop of vegatable corn a
man raises the better he likes it, but
i the bigger crop of animal corn lie rais
|es the better he don’t like it. Another
kind of corn is corn-dodger The
way it is made is very simple, and is
as follows (t hat is if you want to know):
| You go along the streets and meet a
I man that you know has corns, and is
■ a rough character * then you step on
the toe that his the corn on 'it, and :
: see if you won’t have occasion to
dodge. In that way von will find out
what a corn-dodger is.
JKi?” 'The Columbus Enquirer sug
gests that the sudden call of (Jen.
Meade to Washington has reference to
the feasibili y of admitting the South
ern States - The Radicals seem to be
in a sorry quandary as regards this
matter. They fear to admit them lest
they should t;o Democratic, and are
equally fearful lest they be beaten
without their aid.
Important to Wheat Growers.—
An old and experienced farmer of Will
ijimsnn county gives it as a fact that
the following method is a sure preven
tion of the insect weavill it) wheal.—
In piling up your wheat after it has
been cleaned with the fan, to every
three bushels put in a good hard brick
well dried by the sun, and be sure it is
perfectly dry at the time you use it.—
'The brick absorbs the moisture that
naturally accumulates in the grain and
causes il to become so hard and llinty
that the insect or fly cannot penetrate
the outer covering. We are assured
by persons who have made the experi
ment is so easy and simple, we would
advise our friends who grow ordeal in
wheat to try it. —Nashville Gazette.
