The Earth in the Year 2,000,000 a.;d. No particle of sand whiclr goes Into tin.- sea evi r comes back again. Yet millions of particles of sand leave the surface of the earth every second, and are carried suspended in the waters of more than so,ooo rivers, oat into the ocean. There are more than too streams classed as rivers in the State of Louisiana alone. 'Each one of these has several hundred creeks, brooks And spring branches tributary to it, Each brook or spring branch, with Its countless rivulets, clasps the hill sides and drags down the surfaces thereof—down into the brooks—down into the rivers—down into old ocean, And there the atoms rest patiently; each atom waiting for others now resting in green fields, but soon to join the comrade gone before. To-day an atom forms part of a farm in Iowa or Missouri, to morrow, it is on its way to the gulf. This pro cess has been going on since the be ginning of time—since “the earth was without form, and void;*' the pri meval rocks [have been disintegrated and spread abroad in fertile fields, to be slowly sifted out and washed into the ocean; perhaps again to be up heaved and formed into islands and continents—abiding places for coming generations. All life, animate and inanimate, is-simply an illustration of this grinding down process; of the Master rubbing down the bumps to fill up the hollows. The finaboutcome, alter millions of years of this smoothing down process on the surface of the globe, Will make the earth partake of the nature of a . huge billiard ball sailing through the sky—devoid ol hills or valleys, moun tains or plains. Learn a Trade. A good trade is something which bank failures or commercial panics do not destroy. It is a passport to all countries and climes. Something which can be carried in our beads and hands. A demand note which passes cur rent everywhere. The one thing that cannot be learn ed in an academy or college. A strong crutch on which to lean. The liiend of our youth who will not desert us in our old age or affliction. The only language understood by the people ot all races and climes. Beyond the possibility of decline at ;tnv- time—years enhance its value. The only property which cannot be mortgaged or sold. It is a calling which can be declined or taken up at pleasure Something about which neither friends nor kindred can quarrel.—Na' tional Printer and Publisher. — « - l jenks’ Dream.

A young man sell a good farm, turn merchant, break and dio insol vent. A farmer spend so much time in town, that there was nothing at home worth' looking after. A rich man’s son begin where his father left off, and end where his father began—penniless. A worthy farmer’s son idle away tho prime of his life in dissipation, and end his career in poverty. -The extravagance and folly of children bringing their parents to poverty and themselves into dis grace. A farmer' too self-conceited to mend his way, and too obstinate to retrace his footsteps. A poor boy grow rich by industry and good management, and rich boys become poor by idleness and dissipation. A man spend more in folly than would support his family in comfort and independence. A fanner deliver a fine oration at the agricultural fair, with his fences nil down, fields overgrown with weeds, stick foraging on a neighbors ‘ field, and his taxes unpaid. A man build a dwelling so large and fine, that the sheriff won the first to occupy it.
