they ere 1 nothing more nor less, for the
most part, than discarded stones once
used by our rural brethren for their gates
to swing upon—many gates in all porta
of the commonwealth being still thus
pivoted. .,
Many a housewife in remote country
regions still has her stone weights, more
or Jem rough, but honest; whatever the
old Kentucky rifle lingers there is likely
tp be found still a set of soapstone bullet
molds; our log cabins yet have rough
stone and day chimneys, wbero they are
not of mud and sticks; inmanya humble
household a thin rock, not always
smooth, is the utensil for baking com
bread; and the sionc “mush trap'* is
familiar to all our country boys. The
stone pipe, believed by mouy to have
gono out with the Indian, is. made and
used today by many colored folks and by
no few white folks. Whenever soap
stone, or steatite, is fourid, not only the
stone pipe, but many other artides sup
posed to bo archaic, are still manufac
tured and put to servico by the ingenious
and thrifty. In such localities stone
pans, stone troughs for children, etc., are
still common. Some duy they will bo
dug up and attributed to tlio Indians, or
even to their predecessors. A little in
quiry and investigation would show
much fnoreof the stone ago still here
than we have adverted to.

there are docks in the land yet run by
atone weights; stone hovels, with dirt
roofs, are not unknown in our moun
tains; the colored ruffian, and sometimes
tho white one, carries a stono in a stock
ing, along with his razor, when on the
warpath; many a cider press and tobacco
press are still made effective by stones
swung at the end of their lever; and our
small boys are all in their stono age
whenever they can give their natures full
■and freo play.

Tho Multitude of Millionaire*. *
Sinco tlie civil war millionaires (the
wqrd means not thoso having a million,
but thoso reckoning their wealth by mill
ions) have steadily multiplied. Many
men who wero content to earn u decent
livelihood, who had never dreamed of
aught beyond a modest competenco when
Sumter was fired on, now count their
incomo by hundreds of thousands. To
% be a millionaire is to bo conspicuous or
dinarily, but in New York there are
millionaires wholly obscure. They are
not known to bo rich outside of their
narrow social circle, and will not be
until tneir obituary in tho daily news
papers shall havo mentioned the fact.
There aro bo many and so excellent op
portunities hero for making money, to
him who lias pecuniary perception, that
millionaires seem to. spring up between
showers. You hear of a man grown
very wealthy whom you remember a
short timo before as dependent on a sal
ary. You aro not sure that the acquaint
ance you avoid, because ho habitually
wishes to borrow, may not soon be one
of the monetary magnates of Fifth ave
