A man’s comfort in life depends very
much upon his keeping a little ahead
in his money affairs. If you once fall
behind, it may be very difficult to mqke
up. the headway which is lost One
who begins with putting aside
part of his earnings, however small, and
keepB it up for a number of years, is
likely to become rich before he dip.
One who inherits property and goes on
year by year spending a littte more than
his income, will become poor if he lives
long enough. Living beyond their
means has brought multitudes of per
sons to ruin in our generation. It is
the canse of nine-tenths of all the de
falcations which have disgraced the age.
Bankers and business men in general
do not often help themselves to other
people’s money until their own funds
begin to fall off, and their expenditures
exceed their receipts. A man who is in
debt walks in the midst of perils,
have known merchants who, in their
prosperity, would have scorned the
thought of anything approaching to
fraud, and yet, when they found them
selves sinkiDg, have resorted to base
devices which would seem to be utterly
foreign to their nature. A drowing
man will clutch at tho throat of his best
friend to save himselt.■ Debt in itself
is dreadfully demoralized. It may
sometimes be inevitable; but even where
there is no dishonesty connected with
it, the moral fibre is labile to be injured
by its influence. t cannot bnt
impair one’s self-resp; ct when he feels
that he is -living upon honey which be
longs to others. How much better,
whenever it is possiblejto keep a little
ahead, even though we deny ourselves
all the luxuries and someof the comforts
of existence. j
It is also very desinble that we
shonld keep somewhat head in our
work. This may not be possible in all
cases; as, tor instance, wen a man’s
work ss assigned to certainfixed hours,
like that of tho operatives in a mill.
But there are certain classesof * people
who can choose their time fc the work
which they are called to do, and
amongst them there are so nit who in
variably put off the task assiged them
as long as possible, and then anxious,
confused, —in such a State of nind as
certainly unfits them for doig their
best work. I do not think mt the
ablest sermons which are pwaned are
such as are concocted after susut on
Saturday evening. A clergyma’s prep
aration for Sunday should be rade in
season to allow him the seventldny of
the week for a Sabbath of rest. There
would be fewer break downs in to min
istry. if our preachers did nos sc often
enter the public jaded by the lat.konrs
they have kept on the previous aiglit.
Some men, when an appointnmt is
made for them to deliver a speed dis
course months ahead, will do nthing
about it until a day or two befov the
date assigned. Once in a while aman
of genius may be fonnd who orks
best under pressure, and occasiially
we hear of great authors who kee the
printer’s boy waiting at the "door bile
they dash off at lightning speed, al in
characters which are a sore trial tothe
printer and proof-reeder, pages ofim-
pnssioned poetry and fiction which lec
trify the world. Bnt these are rsrex-
eeptions, and it is not well for ordiiry
mortals to follow their example.
One secret of success in life consts
in keeping ahead of other people in or
plans. Society is divided into ro
gURa—leader and followers—tine
who “go aheadand,” those who mery
“fall into line.” How are great fc-
tnnes made? Partly, as I have alreay
said, by saving, and also by striking ct
in advance of others. A far-slghte
long-headed Astor sees that there a;

which the world, has . agreed
to receive as true. The highest
thought is that which affirms,—not that
which denies. The old image-breakers
would not have been worthy of much
credit if they h ad not set np something
bettor for ns to worship in place of the
idols which they destroyed, A true re
formation is a re-formation,—a re-form
ing, not a destroying;
Society is always in need of men who
command respect and revenue because
of their elevated character. We look
np to cert ain persona, we look down up
on others; we simply look at the great
majority,—netcher np or down,—be
cause of the monotonous level on which
the multitude stand. If it were net for
the example of a few eminent men we
should have a low standard of character.
In every village of a thousand or more
inhabitants there are usually some four
or five men and women whose influence
wonld be sorely missed if they should
be taken away. They keep ahead of
other people,—in enterprise, as well bb
in character. A handful of snch per
sons may elevate the whole tone of the
community, Alas for the town where
all people are on a level! It is sure to
be a pretty low level. “Town-meeting
day” tells the whole story. School
teachers salaries cat down, public im
provements blocked, ignorant and 31-
.msnnered men sent to the Legislature,
general evasion of taxes, law-suits with
out nnmber—is the reader so unfortu
nate as to live in a placo where these
features are prominent? Then let him
try to change things for the better and
put himself in advance of the commu
nity to which he belongs. He may ex
pect rough treatment at first; he may
be ridiculed and maligned and persecn
ted,—so have all men been who have set
forward tho world. The more you ars
abused, the more it shows you are seed
ed. . _ r .„. , ....
Finally let eveiy vonng man who has
a soul in him determine not only.to get
ahead, bnt to keep ahead until he drops
out of his place to make way for some
one else. In our day- those who are
coming on the stage of action find it
partfculary hard to get a start,—the
roads are blocked, there is a crowd of
applicants for every respectable station
or opening, and it is only the active
and vigilent who stand much chance of
getting ahead. Bnt remember for your
comfort, that those who have succeeded
best are often snch ash td to strive hard
est in the beginning. What special
advantage did the great majorty of our
most successful citizens have when they
started in their career? Only tuch as
they found within themselves,—a clear
head, an earnest purpose, and a strong
will. They made their fortunes,—for-
tnne did not make them.—N. Y. Ledg-

Thoughtful Republicans in Washing

Cornell’s election by a comparatively
meagre plurality to give them comtort.
The real contest was for the Lieuten

We have receiv«d from Mr. T. B. Fer
guson a letter on the subject of German
carp, and he publishes in the Sun an ad
vertisement announcing that he is pre
pared to furnish any citizen ‘ of Mary
land having a pond or stream in-the
State, and who wish to stock it with
German carp, ten pairs of this prolific
fish, on application at the Druid pill
hatching house. Accompanying (Mr.
Ferguson’s letter was a copy of a letter
to Senator Beck, of Kentucky on the
same subject, from Professor Spencer
F: Baird, of -the United States Fish
Commission, in which he announces a
distribution of German Carp among
the ponds of Kentucky. Professor
Baird is satisfied that carp, which con
stitutes a notable article of food snpply
in Austria and Germany, will within ten
years take a very prominent place
among the food animals of the United
States. He speaks of it as “emphatical
ly a farmer’s fish, and that it may safely
be elaimed to be among fishes what
chickens are among birds and pigs and
ruminants among mammals,” “Its
special merit,” he adds, “lies in the
fact of its sluggishness, and the ease
with which it is kept in very limited
enclosures, its being a vegetable feeder,
dan its general inofiensiveness,” Culti
vated trout and bass “requires a sup
ply of animal food for their sustenance
and growth, bnt the carp lives on the
roots and leaves of aquatic plants and
similar substances, and may be fed oh
corn, grain, bread, root crops, raw or
boiled, and indeed any vegetable sub
stance. Prof, Baird adds: “Its rate
of growth, too, is something marvelous;
and, as observed so far in the speci
mens introduced into the United States,
being even more remarkable here than
in Europe. Among the original fish
imported by us from Europe, and
which are now only about three and •
half years old, are some from twenty-
five to thirty inches in length, weighing
from four to eight or nine pounds.
The carp will- thrive betat in artificial or
natural ponds with mnddy bottoms and
abounding in vegetation. In large
ponds it may not be necessary to add
any special food; but in restricted en
closures, as, for instance, in those of a
fraction of an acre, they may be fed
with the refuse of the kitchen garden,
leaves of cabbage, lettuce, leek, etc.,
hominy or other substances. Grain of
any kind is generally better boiled be
fore being fed to the fish; bat this is
probably not necessary.”
No preducions fish should be put into
a carp pond, although suckers and mnl-
lets would not be objectionable. Black
bass, sun fish and fresh water perch are
inadmissible in the same pond. Major
Ferguson’s letter generalizes and con
firms the views expressed by Professor
Baird, and there can be no doubt that
the introduction of carp - into private
ponds may be made to add materially
to the local supply of food for the table,
and provo an excellent addition to ev
ery fanner’s family, by whom fresh fish
is often unattainable.—Baltimore Son.
WOUNDS IN HEART.
Wounds in the heart are commonly
supposed to be instantaneously
fatal, but not the case. Indeed, it is
not possible except by some extreme
violence, snch as dynamite explosions, to
blot out p human life instantly. Keep
er Good’s pistol ball went right through
the heart oi Barrett, the Sing Sing
convfot, yet he lived four. minutes.
Portello’s knife cleft the heart of Bolan-
der completely in.twain, bathe did not
fall dead upon the spot. The instinct
of self-preservation remained, and. even
that horrid wonnd had not deprived him
of the. strength to obey it. He ran first
towards a neigboring drug store, then
turned and ran down Fulton stieet,
and had reached a point many feet
distant from the spot where he was
stabbed and fell and expired. So
O'Connell, who was stabbed by Nichols,
at Nyack, Jnly 3, though his heart was
actually cut in two by the stroke, ran
several feet after the wonnd was in
flicted. A puncture of the heart is nec.
essarily fatal, but the victim is often
conscious for two or three. minutes,
though generally without much power
of motion or of speech, save the first
ery of agony. This shows that the
brain can act even after the heart is de
stroyed. On the other hand, the heart
continues to exercise its functions after
th* brain has ceased all action, as iu
case of death from severe blows on the
head. The hearts of criminals who have
been banged generally keep up their
pulsations for twelve or fifteen minutes,
although it is reasonably certain, when
the neck is broken, that -they can re
ceive no nervons impulse from the brain
during that time. The continued work
ing of the organ is attributable to.a res-
idiumof nervous force. In the case of
some anim.:ls. * this is sufficient to keep
the heart pulsating for hours after it
has been taken out of the body. The
common notion that the heart is a deli
cate organ is a mistake. It is on the
contrary, one of the most robust. Its
muscular strength is is enormous, sud
its tolerance of disease is something
marvelous. Men and women whose
hearts have been diseased from child
hood sometimes attain & ripe old age,
and many people with heart disease live
for years in almost momentarily expec
tation of sudden death, and then die of
some other malady. Only a veiy-few of
the many diseases - to which the heart is
liable are inevitable and -speedily fatal.
Most of them, even of organio diseases,
are quite compatible with long life.- As
to the functunal diseases, or derange
ment of the heart’s aotion without actu
al lesion, they are devoid of danger,
though their manifestations are com
monly mure disquieting than those of se
rious organic disease.—Lew York
Times.
A DANGEROUS FRAUD.

The Fosi.il Remains of a Groat Ser
pent-
Ells vorth connty, Ku., furnishes a
new contribution to natural history m
the serpent of the prehistoric period.
The discovery was made three miles
uorth of Wilson, the other day, by a
Mr. Sylvester^ while plowing, prepatory
to opening a stone quarry. Having
turned over what he supposed was a
piece of petrified wood, nearly four feet
in length, but wbich-proved to.belong to
the animal kingdom, further search was
made, following up other pieces in contin
uity, varying in length from one to three
feet, until thirty-six feet in all were
secured. Not until tbe head was exhumed
was the character of the monster appa
rent. No one seeing the reconstructed
segments of the snake placed in their
natnral order can for a moment doubt
the genuineness of the discovery. The
remains were fonnd only a few inches
below the surface, with a thin layer of
earth between them and the nnderlay-
ing rock, The length of the head is
seventeen inches; width of head, eleven
inches; greatest thickness of body
about one foot. The line of demarca
tion between the upper and lower jaw>,
serpetine. the passage of the oesopha
gus through the neck, as well as that of
the alimentary canal some fifteen feet
further on in the body, is clearly trace
able. The oatline ot the backbone ia
distinctly seen in a nnmber of the sec
tions composing' the remains.' Some of
larger vertebra are four inches across
and it is about the same distance be
tween the vertebral spaces—or, compar
atively speaking, they are the size of
the vertebim of a large horse. A por
tion of the caudal extremity—some ten
or fifteen feet—is missing, haring been
removed by a previous quarry man, so

was probably^Eity ftet.

Mr. D. G. Watts, the Presidedtof the
New York 0 tton Exchange, who ar
rived home by the Bothina on Wednes
day. after an absence of eight months
iu Europe, was met in Hanover square
yesterday by a Herald reporter. There
is no denying that the prospects of tne
trade are vastly improved, the outlook
all over Europe being better than it
has been in a long time and Mr. Watts
was found as bouyant as the market,
lie expressed the opinion that there is not
going to be any damaging competition
with the American preduct, and remark
ed that- the production of the sta
ple, which had been constantly increas
ing, would continue to increase with
the demand. “The production of cot
ton in India,” said Mr. Watts, “has
been decreasing every year. Next year
it is though there may be an increase of
about two hundred thousand bales but,
this increase is only an incident of abet
ter season. The tendency is to drive
ont Great Britain as a competitor in
producing cotton, as we produce a
much better article at a comparatively
cheaper price- It has been demonstra
ted that bb other conntry can raise cot
ton to compete with ours. The present
prices are good and we have nothing' to

New York the Pivotal State,—The
Philadelphia Inquirer, Independent re
publican, furnishes a table, which it says
is “the best that can be done in the way
of presenting a table of the electoral
vote of}1880 favorable to the repnblcan
party.” It gives as certain Democratic
States all the Southern States and Indi-
anna, making 153 electoral votes In
the doubtful States it places Connecti
cut, New York and New Jersey, with 50
electoral votes, claimin^the remaining
Northern and Western States, with 166
votes, as certain for the republicans.
There are necessary to a choice 185
votes, which the republicans will not
have, even if the 15 votes of New Jer T
sey and Connecticut be added to tLeir
166, unless they get New York, and
which, and more, the Democrats will
haTe If fter get New York. That, in
faet, is the only State they want to
make their election .sure,' Hence the
Inquirer regards New York as the bat
tle ground, and it concludes that “noth
ing but hard, intelligent work from now
until the day of the Presi den tial elec
tion will avail, and 3ven wit h ail Ibat
the result will be in doubt.”
It seems from facts which have recent-!
ly come to light that Professor James:
C. Wingard; of New Orleans, the in-1
ventor of what he called a “nameless j
force,” an exhibition of the power of [
which ho pretended to give in Lake
Ponckartrain some three years ngo, was
the chief mover in the experiment
which resulted in the death of Mr. J. B.
MeClintock, in Boston harbor. * Early
last summer Wingard tamed np in Bos
ton with credentials from various par
ties in New Orleans and succeeded in
raising several thousand dollars for the
purpose of experimenting his invention.
He was very mysterious, but -told won
derful stories of the power of his terri
ble agent. His secret, if he had any,
he kept well, and went no further in
the way of explanation than to say that
his “nameless force” was produced by
positive and negative currents of elec
tricity. McCliutock and a man by the
name of Holgate appeared upon the
scene sometime in September, and Irom
that time until the disaster were the as
sistants of Wingard in preparing for the
experiment. Since McClinlock’s death
facta have come to light which go to
show that the terrible force was nothing
more than dynamite. This dynamite,
to the amount of thirty or forty pounds,
was packed in a torpedo case which had
been brought from New York. This
work was done in a Boston hotel, where,
stall times, there were hundreds of peo
ple. If the slightest concussion had
come to this material, the hotel might
have been blown to pieces and many
livss lost. The dynamite torpedo was
carried to South Boston and placed on
board of a yacht. It is no longer doubt
ed that MeClintock and his boatman,
S fain, lost their lives by an accidental
explosion of this torpedo. That Wing
ard has invented a new force is not be
lieved ia Boston. In fact, his “uame-
lers force” is thought to be a swindle.
