Necessity of Personal Labor.
The annihilation of our system of labor, says
the Norfolk Virginian, renders it imperatively
necessary for us to resort tc severe economies.
We must alter the style of our dwellings to ac
cord with our changed condition and the cir
cumstances which surround us. Especially will
our kitchens have to be provided with “all the
modern improvements,’ and so located as to be
trader the immediate supervision of the mistress
of tiH house. The fanner will find it to his ad
vantage to avail himself, more than over before,
of labor-saving machines. And so on through
every deparmcnt of life ; wliatever will eeou
mize time aud Libor must be studied aud adopt
ed by our people as far as practiable.
The youth of the State must be reared with a
full knowledge of the value ot a manly relf-re
liance, aud should 1* taught to work for them
selves. When we cease to entertain extravagant
ami erroneous ideas of the social diguity of idle
ness, then and will not till theu, will we begin
to build up our waste places, as the trite phrase
runs. This ago looks more and more every day
at results, and although we are oppressed with
debt and taxation, and struggle under an iniqui
tous constitution, still we have resources within
ourselves which a race of busy workman can de
velop, and that, too, with the certainty of ac
cumulating wealth and power. This theory is
not at all iuoompatiable with sound education
for our boys in tire ordinary meaning of the
term. They cun be students of books and work
also at the plow or the foyge; with axe and ham
mer ; and a recognition ct the circumstances
by which we are surrounded, teaches every
thoughtful parent in ti * State that the next gen
eration, to be suecesful, must be able to work
with their hands as well as their heads.
A Blush.— What is there more mysterious
than a blush; that a single word or look or
thought should send that inimitable carnation
over the cheek like the soft tints of the summer
sunset! Strange it is also that the face is capable
ot blushing, that the hand or foot does not turn
red with modesty or shame any more than the
glove sock that covers them. It is the face that
is in heaven. The blush of modesty that tin
ted woman’s face when she awoke in Eden’s suu
y land still lingers with her fair daughters.
They caught it from the roses, for all were first
white ; but when Eve plucked one. the hud see
ing her own fair fact* -more than the flowers
blushed and cast its r* flections on her vivid
checks. The fact is the tablet of the soul where
in it writes its action. There may be traced all
the intellectual phenomonea with a confidence
amounting to a moral certainty. If innocence
and purity look outward from within, none the
less do vice,intemperance and debauchery make
indelible impressions upon it Idiocy,rage,cow
ardice and passion show d**ejH*r marks even than
the virtues of modesty, truth,charity and hope.
Even thebeaufiful grows more beautiful from the
pure thought that arise within it
Cars or Tool* .—lf formers will examine their
tools at this season of the year, they will doubt
less find that hired men have brought in har
rows, plows and hand tools, aud housed them
without thorough cleaning.—Take the first op
portunity to clean them, and polish the metalic
parts bright rubbing them afterwards with a littl
beeswax, grafting wai or similar substance, to
protect the surface aud prevent rusting. The
wooden part of all tools and implements which
are at any time exposed to the wether, will last
many times longer if well impregnated with oiL
The best as well as the cheai>est is crude petro
1-nm, as it penetrates the pores and makes per
ishable wood like the most dnmole cedar. In
cool weather it will be necessary to warm or heat
it to as high a temperature as will bo safe before
applying, sc that it may enter the pores of the
wood. With all the smaller tools, such as hoes,
spades, rakes, etcthe work may be done in a
warm room.
Nbwstafeus. There is no book so cheap as
a newspaper, none so interesting, because it con
sists of a measured out in suitable proportions
as to time and quality.—Being new every week
or day, it invites to a habit of reading, and af
fords an easy aud profitable mode of acquiring
knowledge, so essential to the welfare of the in
dividual and the community. It causes many
an hour to pass away pleasantly and profitably
which would otherwise have been spent in idle
ness or mischief.
It does not seem to be generally known that,
from the Ist inst, the fee for registering a letter
mailed at any post-office in the United States
and addressed to any other post-office in the
United States is eight cents, in addition to the
regular postage. Until further notice the Post
office Department will not provide stamps of the
department of eight cents, as that sum can bo
obtained by combining stamps of the most con
venient denominations at hand.
An Illinois editor thus ‘‘gushes over a broth
cr professional, who has lately got married in
ludiana : “He stepped upon the hymeneal plat
form, adjusted the fatal noose, and swung off in
to that unsilent bourne from whence he can ne
ver return, save by Indianapolis disconnecting
lines.” Just wait until that new wife gets con
trol of that editor’s paper : won’t that compli
mentary scribbler have to sweat for that notice.
The grangers and farmers of Pike county have
passed resolutions recommending the farmers
not to plant more than one third of their crop
in cotton ; deprecating wholesale bonding for
provisions ; and devising the repeal of the lien
law, and the modification of the homestead law.
In the Georgia Legislature Mr. Harris’resolu
tion, providing for the appoinment of \ Joint
Committee on the Constitution to which all pro
posed Constitutional amendments shall be re
fered, passed.
And right hero it ends.
The Railroad Tax bill introduced into the
Georgia House of Representatives by Mr. Mc-
Daniel, Chairman of the Finance Committee,
provides for taxing the property of the roads, in
stead of their incomes or earnings,and requires
the Presidents of the companies to make full re
turns of the property of their respective roads,
without deducting their indebtedness,and to pay
to the Comptroller General the taxes assessed
thereon. It is estimated that this bill,if passed
will increase the revenue of the State SIOO,OOO.
According to the New Ilaveu Register there
are in Connecticut “very few churches which
would be wiili*. g to aduntt neguses to member
ship on an equality with the whites.
This remark suggests the inquiry, why is it
that the Civil Rights bill does not open all the
pews in all the churches to the negroes, as well
as to the hotels, places of amusement, Ac ? Is
distinction to be tolerated in religion alone?
Has not Congress as much right to run the
churches as the railroads and hotels? Can’t it
send the negro to Haven from a first-class pew,
as well as to an earthly destination ill a first
class sleeping car ?
Tue Chops. —Oats, Hay,Wheat. The Na
tional Crop Reporter publishes its final esti
mates of last year’s crop of oats aud hay in the
States of Illinois ludiana,lowa, Kansas,Minn
esota, Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee aud Wiscon
sin. The estimated total productiau of oats in
the States named in 1872,wa5, in round number
1‘.12,300,000 bushels; and the falling off from this
in 1873 is placed .t ten and two-tenths per 'cent
Indiana shows the heaviest loss, being over sev
enteen per cent.
The estimates of the hay crop give an average
falling off of the crop o* 1873, as compared with
that of 1872,equ 1 to six and one-half per cent
and makes the total yield last year in the above
States nearly ten million tons.

Inexpensive Happiness.- The most perfect
home l ever saw was in a little house into the
sweet insence of whose fires went no costly
things. A thousand dollars served for a year’s
living of father,mother and three children. But
the mother was tin- creator of a home; her re
lation with her children _vv is the most beautiful
I have ever seen ; even a dull and eommon-jdace
maw w.is lilted up and enabled to do good work
for souls by the atmosphere which this woman
created ; every inmate of her house involuntari
ly looked into her face for the key-note of the
day ; and it always rang clear. From the rose
bud or clover-leaf which, in spite of her hard
house-work, she always found dmo to put by
our plates at breakfast, down to the story she
had on hand to Is? read in|the evening,there was
no intermission of her influence. She has al
ways been and always will be ray ideal of a
mother, wife, home-maker. If to her quick
brain, loving heart and exquisite face had been
added the appliances of wealth aud the enlarge
ment of wider culture, hers would have been
the ideal home. As it was, it was the best I have
ever seen —lf fieri Hunt .
Aw Episode.—A Washington dispatch says:
One ot the most interesting episodes of the sal
ary debate to-day was the speech of Senator Gor
don, which was somewhat in the nature of a
persopal explanation. During the afternoon of
Friday, Mr, Gordon had ottered an amendment
to reduce the salaries of officers of the army and
navy, which especially in the higher grades, du
ring peace, are proportionately much greater
than those of civil officers. In private conver
sation, some Senators, or others, had insinuated
that Mr. Gordon was actuated by his old Con
federate sentiments, and that,having been whip
j>ed in the field, he now desires to take his re
venge on Union officers by catting down their
salaries, a suggestion as unjust as conld be im
agined. The Senator, of course, indignantly
disclaimed any such motivo.and very eloquently
referred to what took place at Appomattox, when
he assisted to arrange the terms of Lee’s surren
der, to show how much cause to respect each
other the true soldiers of the war, on both sides
had. His speech commanded the undivided atten
tion of the Senate and the galleries aud made a
very favorable impression.
Who Can Most Easily be Spabed— Young
men, this is the first question your employers
ask^themselves, when business becomes slack,
and when it is thought uecensary to economize
in the matter of salaries. This question is an
swered in an American journal to our satisfaction.
It answers the question who can best be spared
this way : “The barnacles, the chirks, tbe make
shift’s somebody’s nephews, potoges, some
body’s good-for-nothings. Young men, please
remember that those are not the ones who are
called for when responsible positions are to be
filled. Would you like to guage your own fit
ness for a position of prominence? Would you
like to know the probabilities of your getting
such a position ? Inquire within ! What are you
doing to make yourselves valuable in the posi
tion you now occupy? If you are doing what
your hands find to do, then chances are ten to
one that you will soon become so valuable in that
position that you cannot easily be spared from
it and then, singular to relate, will be the very
time when you will be sought out for promotion
to a better place. —Be content to grade among
the men who can easily be spaied, and you may
rest assured that nothing will ‘spare’ you so cer
tainly and bo easily as promotion.’

npilE ALDINE, while issued with all the reg-
X ularity, has none of the temporary or (imuhj
interest characteristic of ordinary prriodicals. It
is an elegant miscellmy of pure,light ami grace

value and beauty of THE ALDINE will be most
appreciated after it has been bound up at the
