Manual Labor yb. Machinery. A fear seems to have taken possession of many minds lest by the inventive genius of man machiney might be pro duced capable of accomplishing so much as to remove the necessity for manual labor, and, aa a consequence, lest they themselves should be unable to gain a livelihood. So widely have these views l>een imbibed, even by men of apparent intelligence of a comparatively high order, that they have advocated in strong terms, upon the rostrum and elsewhere, the desirability of not only banishing new machinery, but inventors also This opposition has made the path of those who possessed sufficient enterprise to lead them to devise new methods, and new apparatus to effect the same, not only unpleasant, but generally unprofitable; whereas if mankind had been more fully endowed witli wisdom and brotherly love a very different state of affairs would have existed. The cry that “the rich are growing richer and the poor are growing i>oorer,” as the result of the introduction of new machinery is not trne. In fact, the use of machinery is constantly improving the condition of nil classes; and the advance that Ims been made by the masses to ward a higher civilization the last half century is simply wonderful, and is due to the development of the inventive genius of man. That there is not an equitable distribution of the products of the farm, the mine, and the manufactory cannot bo denied Hut where does the fault lie? Not with the machinery either of old or new design. Let the reader look back with the aid of proper books of reference to the con dition of tilings llfty years ago. At that time it was beginning to dawn upon tfre minds of the most progressive that steam railways were a possibility; but every thing for the next ten years was in tlie crudest possible condition, no more like the comfortable railways of to-day than a two-wheel springless ox-cart is like a modern pleasure carriage. Then travel was slow and tedious for all classes, rich or poor. Now' the rich, and the poor as well, may travel five hundred miles com fortably in twenty-four hours. Then the mails were weeks in going and coming where days will now suffice. Then tele graphs were unknown, but now any one may send a message to a friend hundreds of miles away for a few cents, and get an answer almost at once, whereas it for merly required several days if not weeks for a message to go and come. These and hundreds of other improvements that have been inaugurated are open to the use and benelit of all, and have greatly lessened the most arduous work of the laboring man, while the necessity for his services is in no wise less now than formerly In fact it may be truly said that the day laborer can now enjoy many things that the wealthiest men half a century ago could not obtain. —New York Mercantile Journal. _ The Spider. The worst thing about this poor insect is, that it is so thoroughly ugly. In it Nature has sacrificed everything in the formation of the industrial machine necessary for satisfying its wants. Of a circular form, furnished With eight legs and eight vigilant eyes, it astonishes "•'and disgusts) us by the pre-eminence of fcin enormous abdomen. Ignoble trait the inattentive and superficial observer will see nothing but a type of gluttony. Alas! it is quitfc the con trary. This abdomen is its workshop, its magazine, the pocket in which the rope-maker keeps liis stock; but as he fills this pocket with nothing but his ow’n substance, he can only increase it at his own expense by means of a rigid sobriety. True type of the artisan. ‘* If I fast to-day,” he says, “ I shall, per haps, get something to eat to-morrow; but if my manufacture be stopped, every thing is lost, and my stomach will have to fast forever.” In character the spider is watchful #nd cunning; in disposition timid, un easy and nervous—being endowed with a iqpre sensitive nature than is possessed by any other insect. These character istiesare the natural results of its miser able condition, which is a state of con stant, passive, weary waiting. To be forever watching the ceaseless, joyless, careless dances of the fly, which pays no attention to the greedy desires of his enemy, or the gentle whispers of: ‘ ‘Coma here, little one, cume this way”—is to be in a state of torment, to be continually undergoing a succession of hopes and mortification. The fatal question, “Shall I get any dinner?” is continually presenting itself to the dweller in the web, followed by the still more sinister reflection, “If I have no dinner to-day, then no more thread, and still less hope of dining to-morrow.” The male spider often makes a meal of his progeny; while the female loves them so tenderly that if she cannot save them in circumstances of peril she prefers to perish with them. The love which she bears to her little ones she does not ex tend towards her mate. Sometimes, after having in vain attempted to pre vent him from devouring their offspring, the idea appears suddenly to present it self to her mind that tLe cannibal is himself good for food, on which she instantly falls upon him and eats him up. Sheep-Raising in Montana. Judge Davenport, of Montana Terri tory, says an exchange, purchased 1,000 ewes which cost him about $3,000. He put these in charge of a young man who was to take them on to a range, take all the care of them, pay all the expenses of the band and to receive as his share one half of the wool produced and one-half the increase of the flock. At the end of four years a settlement was to be made and .fudge Davenport was to receive back 1,000 of the best ewes which the band contained. When the settlement was made Judge Davenport had received for his share of the proceeds of the wool $6,500, and for his share of the increase SB,OOO. The profits on the investment of $3,000 for four years were $14,500, os 120 2-3 per cent per annum. Smart Reckoning. “ Pa, will you get me a pair of skates if I prove that a aog has ten tails?’’ “Yes, my son.” “ Well, one dog has one more tail than no dog, hasn’t he?” “ Y 66. ” “ Well, no dog has nine tails; and if one dog has one more tail than no dog, then one dog must have ten tails. Hand over the skates, please.” The Horse’s Punishment. The liorsc appreciates a comfortable fitting harness as much as he does a properly-fitted shoe. The latter, when set too tight, or with a nail driven into or too near the sensitive tissues, produces positive lameness. Under this condition of things ho is promptly taken to the shop for relief. But he may suffer nearly or quite as much from the chafing of a badlv-fitted collar or a narrow belly band, drawn too tight. Or from a check rein shortened np so as to form of itself one of the severest punishments. Either of these conditions will produce restive ness in the dullest brute, and in the ease of an animal of nervous temperament, and having a thin, sensitive skin, he is liable to become frantic, the obtuse owner or driver seldom appreciating the origin of the difficulty. No greater evidence can be advanced to establish a horse’s entire submissive uess than his willingness to pull against the collar with a portion of the breast surface denuded of its skin, and showing the highest possible state of sensibility. The average horse will do this, shrink ing at every step. A horse learns to dread the approach of the master or driver with harness in hand, if this has previously been a source of torment, or even discomfort. A horse properly han dled for a period, in a well-ntted harness, then chancing to fall into the hands of a bungler, will at once detect the undue tightness or looseness of the strap, and will not settle down to his usual gait con tentedly, while the irregularity remains. A spirited horse may, under such an irri tating influence, do from downright fear what may be wrongly charged as vicious ness. Heavy strokes of the whip may fall upon the irritated beast only to be followed by evil results. Among the every-day torments to which the horse is subjected, we will enumerate the following: Ist. Abraded breast. 2d. Inflamed back from defect ive saddle or harness pad. 3d. Bore mouth from a too tight gag-rein, a severe bit, or both. 4th. A sore tail from a too tight or ill-made crupper. sth. An abrasion under the body, caused by a too tight or badly-fitted belly-band. 6th. Irritation of the eyes from blinders being strapped too close together, or on the other hand are allowed to swing around, first striking one eye and then the other. 7th. Ears chafed by the brow band being placed too high, or by metallic rosettes with a sharp outer rim, the base of the ear pressing across this at every motion. Bth. The excessive fatigue of all the structures of the neck under the influence of the bearing rein. The bearing rein, if made taut, and kept so for any considerable length of time, is a source of great discomfort to all horses, and an insufferable torment to many. A taut rein can be used with entire pro priety on horses of line easy up-carriage, especially while in motion; but if the muscles and bony structure of the neck extend forward horizontally from an up right shoulder, rather than striking out from a slanting shoulder, then the most intense suffering will be inflicted by straining the neck up to an angle entirely unnatural to the animal, especially if this strain be long kept up. To strain a cul prit up by the thumbs, till only his toes touch the ground, is certainly one of the severest admissible punishments that can be inflicted upon mortal, and the check rein is undoubtedly akin to it, in its ex treme application.

A doctor tells, with pardonable pride, how, being called in at the debut of his career to a consultation with an eminent prince of the science, he had insisted, despite the opinion of his famous senior, that the patient had an incurable affec tion of the heart. “And what were my delight and pride,” he says, beamingly, “on learning three days later that my patient had gone off precisely as I had declared he would. ” [lndianapolis Daily Sentinel.] No More Gossip.

Y.— Utica A Posthumous Joke. In the’ London probate registry is a will dated 1791, by which the testator left SSO a year to be spent on whisky to be given to a number of Irish people, not exceeding twenty, who may visit the cemetery on the anniversary of his death. Each is to go with a penknife and a stout stick, and the whisky is to be distributed in half-pint doses. The object is thus explained by the testator: “Knowing what I know of the Irish character, mv conviction is that with these materials given they will not fail to destroy each other, and when, in course of time, the race comes to be exterminated, this neighborhood, at # least, may perhaps be colonized by civil and respectable men.” Thr Cuw or Seioooe has received an important addition in the ele gant Observatory which Mr. H. H. Warner proprietor of the valuable Safe Kidney and Uver Cure, has erected at Rochester. Hour to Travel Like Lightning. An imaginative man proposes the fol lowing plan by which he holds it possible to transport freight and passengers by rail from New York to San Francisco in ten hours. What the freight or passen gers would be good for when delivered he does not pretend to say. The plan is this: “A fair rate of speed for a railway train is forty miles an hour. The dis tance from New York to San Francisco is, roughly, three thousand miles. I would divide this distance into thirty parts, with stations at every 100 miles. First a track, not differing greatly from the ordinary railroad track, should be laid for a hundred miles, and it is only neoessarv to study rapid transit accord ing to my plan over this section of the road to understand how the whole system would work. Over the first track of 100 miles, and running over cannon balls upon the track, is another, say 90 miles long, on which, in turn, *is another, 80 miles long, and so on till on the whole system the freight and passenger train runs, it being of any desired and practi cable strength. Suppose it is required to go from A to B, a distance of 100 miles, the stable track over which all the others run is, of course, 100 miles long, and the first movable track upon it is 90 miles long. Let the first movable track be drawn by a stationary engine the 10 remaining io miles, whereby one of its extremities will reach B, and let us say that it takes fifteen minutes for it to move through the ten miles. In the meantime the track eighty miles long which runs on the track ninety miles long will have been advanced ten miles by the motion of the ninety mile track, and will itself (either by means of a stationary engine or a locomotive) have advanced ten miles on its own hook, so that in all it will have gone twenty miles in the fifteen minutes, and its extremity will reach B at the same time that B is reached by the ninety mile track. So with the seventy, the sixty, the fifty tracks, and up to the passenger and freight trains, winch will reach and as soon as the ninety mile track reaches B—that is to say, in fifteen min utes, at the end of which it-will have traveled about 100 miles. Perhaps the following statement will make the mat ter clearer. Let us call the ninety mile track A, the eighty mile track B, and so on. Ais drawn ten miles, carrying with it B for the same distance. But B has a motion of its own and travels over ten miles on its own account. It has there fore gone 20 miles. C, with a ten mile motion of its own over B, which draws it along, has gone 30 miles; I), 40; E, 50; F, GO; G, 70; H, 80; I, 90; J (which is the passenger and freight train), 100- miles, and all in fifteen minutes. The whole system of tracks need not be more than four or five feet in height. With sufficient power the scheme is practica ble, and with motors at present at our command it would v'ork for short dis tances. —r Scientific American. Answer This.

It is his habit to go out shooting on Sunday near the city, attended only by his little son, his nephew, one servant and three or four friends, and a plan had been formed to surround and capture the party and hold the President to ransom. Fortunately, lie was detained one Sunday, just as he w r as about to leave the National Palace by some important telegrams, which re quired liis immediate attention, and in this way escaped, the band of robbers being themselves surprised as they were lying in wait for him. Some persons 'are so thriftless they would convert a garden into a desert, while others possess the energy to make the desert blossom like the rose.

A Remarkable Railway Accident. An almost incredible explanation was given of the cause of an accident to the Scotch express, near Leicester, England. It is said that the train was stopped a little beyond the town of Kibworth, the engineer thinking something was the matter with his engine. Examination showed the locomotive to be all right, and the engineer again applied steam, but instead of running forward the train was backed, and the engineer did not notice the change of direction until the train had returned to Kibworth station, where it ran into a freight train, but not before the engineer had applied the Westinghouse brake, and bo prevented more damage than the smashing of two cars and the wounding of four or five passengers. The engineer was suspend ed; but it appeared from investigation that none of the train hands knew that they were going backward instead of for ward until,it was too late to avert an ac cident. It was stated by way of expla nation that the night of the accident was very dark. afflicted with phthisis pulmonalls (Consumption) use Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup with very great benefit and relief.

D. r BULL’S COUGH SYRUP Beef Tea. Mr. Wilkinson of St. Mary’s Hospital, London, advises the following improved method of preparing beef tea: The meat is cut into small pieces and placed in the evening, in an earthenware vessel with sufficient cold water to cover the meat; in this it is allowed to remaiu all night. In the morning the meat is taken out, placed in other water, and boiled for several hours. The meat of the previous day is then passed through a mincing machine, and put into the cold liquor in which the meat was steeped the previons night, and upon this the boiling liquor from the dav's beef tea is poured, and the whole well stirred and it then forms the complete beef tea. The characteristics of good beef tea are that ail the nutritious elements of the beef should be made available; and by the process carried out as above this is effect ually done, the albumen, fibrine, and gelantino being all retained and taken by the patient. Moreover, by the above method a much smaller quantity of meat is required than under the ordinary mode, and it would, consequently, not become a jelly if allowed to stand; but by adding a larger quantity of beef this result could of course be obtained. (This forms with us what is called beef jelly.) It should, however, be remarked that in very hot weather the beef tea cannot be made in this manner, as it would become sour from the length of time required for its preparation. Busy Men. Busy men of affairs like Thiers have often surprised the world by the extent of their literary labors. Bossuet was a prolific writer, and the following pas sage from the newly published “Ecrits Inedits” of St. Simon explains how he reconciled his literarv tastes with his absorbing duties of Bishop of Meaux: ‘ ‘He know so much, and with so much order and method, that he wrote with astonishing facility. He, like the poets, had no fixed hours for work, though he worked a great deal daily. At night he had a fire, a light, a pair of pantaloons and a dressing gown near his bed, and nearly every night he rose and worked alone several hours. People who were ignorant of this circumstance were often very much surprised that he was not out of his chamber at 11 a. m., and*that soon after he rapily dressed to say mass. He had worked until 6, 7 and 8 a. m., car ried away by his abundance and subject. The quantity of works he has left is prodigious, and with so many, such con tinual and such varied labors, he none the less proved to be an excellent bishop, visiting and preaching himself to his flock, and he measured his teachings to their mind.” There are sections in "Western Vir ginia, Southwestern Missouri and Texas where good sheep grazing lands in large ranches can be had at fifty cents per acre.
