To have a follow going about the? farm

snnegood points :ahout the man, so
that he msy be a nun for all that; but
poor soft Tommy, as ireen as "rass.

nobody's money and everybody's scorn.
A man must have a backbone, or how-,
Is he to hold his head up? but that
backbone must bend, or he will knock
Ids brow against the beam.
There is a time to do as others wish,
and a time to refuse. We may make
ourselves asses, and then everybody
will ride us ; but, if we would be re-'
8pectetl, we must be our own masters,
and not let others saddle us as they
think fit. If we try to please every
sbody, we should be like a toad under a
harrow, and never hava peace ; ancLif
we play lackey to all our neighbors.
whether "ootl or bad, vre shall be
thanked by no one, for we shall soon
do as much harrn as good. He that
make himself a sheep, will find thatieuthis head off; that's the sart of
the wolves are not all dead. He who
lies on the ground m ist expect to be
trodden on. Jle who makes himself a
mouse, the cats will cat him. If, you
let your neighbors put the calf on your

quite another matter.

j dly good fellow you will be called, if
you will make 'yourselves a back for
jour friends, and what. a Benjamin's
raess wijl they soon bring vou into!
Out of that rae.s you will have to gat
all alone, for your old friends will be
sure to say to you, "Good-bye, basket,
I've curried; al my apples," or they
will gi.ro jou, tlieir good wishes and
nothing more, and you will find out
that fair words won't feed a cat,: nor
butter your bread, nor fiil your pocket.
ThoS2 who make so very much , of you
.either' mean to cheat you, or else are !
in need of you : 'when they have sucked
the orange they tvill throw the peel
away, lie wise, then, and look before
you lea-), lest a friend's advice tsbouid
do you morii mischief than an enemy's
slander. "The simple believcth every

well to his going." Go with your
neighbor as far -as good conscience
will go with you, but part company
w.irere the shoe of conscience boms to
pinch 3'our foot. JJe'in with yo:ir
friend -as you mean to go on, and let
him know very early that you are not
a man-made'loT putty, but one who has
a judgment of his own, and meaus to
use it. Full uij the nuuient you iind
you are o Jt of the roa 1, and take the

lu avoid gtcat faults is to beware of

A friend to everybody is often a
friend uPnobody. or else in his sim
plicity he robs his family to help stran
gers, and becooies brother to a bear.
There is wis loin m generosity, as in
everything else, aiid some had need
go to school to learn it. A kind
he'arted sou! may ba very cruel to his
own children, whik he takes the bread
out of their mouths to give to those
who call him a - generous fellow, but
laugh at his folly. Very, often he that
his money lends. loss both his gold
and his friends, hud lie who is surctv is
never sure. Take John 'Ploughman's
a.lrice, and never be security for more
than you are quite willing to lose
Uemeinber the word of (7odliiy3, 'He
that is surety for a stranger shall smart
for it : and he that hateth suretyship is
sure." j
Vhen we werej injured we are bound
as cljnslians to bear it without malice :
but we are no to pretend that we do
not feel it. for this will but. encourage
otir enemies to kick us again. He who
is cheated twice by the-same - man, is
half as 'bad as the rogue; and tit is
very twucli so in other injuries unless
we claim ocr rights, we are ourselves
to blame if we do not get. them. Paul
1
was willing o bear stripes for his
Master's sake, but lie did not foet to
tell the magistrates .that he was a ! Ko
m.in; and when those gentlemen
wished, to put him -out of prison pri
vately, he said, "Nay, verily, let them
come themselves aud fetch us out." A
christian is the gentlest of men, but
then he is a man. A goodmaii3' peo
ple don't' need to be. told tliis. - for they
are up" in a moment if th?y think any
b xly is like'3 to ill-treat the n ; long
before they-know whether it i a thief

well m ike a seat out of a bull's fore i

with aa angry man ; and with a. furious

slow to wrath is of rireat unJerstand
ing ; but ne that is hastv of spirit ex
alteth folly'." ,:See.st thou a man that
is hasty in hisj war Is, there is more f
hope of a foul than of him."
In my day I have seen dof nrightj
obstinate men, whom neither sc
ise nont
reasoi) could alter. , There's a riuccr
elmrrin our rillage who keep9 a bull
do'r, and he, tells rx?3 that when the
creature once gives a bite at anything. :
he never lets go again, and if ou want
io get it out of his uiouth, you mist
man . that has fretted me many a time
and almost made me mad. You miht

iferubbing black-

f his -good t0 ediriMlioaf but this is
amoors wbiie, and getting spot3on- of
leopards, is nothing at all compareil
with trying to lead a downright ob
stinate man. Itight or wrong, yon
miglit as easily make a hill walk to
London ns turn him when his -mind is
made u. When a man is right, this
sticking to his text is a grand 'thing;
our minister says, '-It ii the stuff that
martyrs are made of;" but when an
ignorant, wrong headed fellow els
this hard grit into him, he makes mar
tyrs of those who have to put up with
him. Old Master l'ihead swore he
would dm-e a nail into an oak board
with his fiit, and so lamed his hand lor
life ; he or.M not ssll his corn . at his
own price, a d sc let the rats eat up
the ricks. You cannot ride by bis
fields without noticing his obstinacy
for he vows "he vo::'t have none of
these 'ere ncw-faugkd notions," and
he grows the worst crops in1 the parish ;
and, worst of all, his daughter went
among the Methodists, and in a tower
rage, he turned her out of doors; and
though I believe he is ver' sjrry for it
he will not yield an inch, but stands to
it he will never speak to her so long
as he lives, and - meanwhile the dear
girl is dying" through his unkindness.
Hash vows are much better broken
than kept. He who never changes
never mends
he who never yields.
never conquers.. ; , :
With children we must mix jrentle
ness with firmness: the3' must not al
ways have their own ma3. but they
must not always be thwarted. Give
to a pig when it grunts, and to a child
when it cries, and you will have a fine
pig and a spoiled child. A man who
is learning to play on a. trumpet, and a
petted chi.hl,-are- two very disagreea
ble companions, even as next-door
ncighbois ; but unless we 1 look well to
it. on' chddren will be a nuisance to
otliers and a torment lo ourselvei.
the rot of repoof gives wisdom; but a
child left to himself bringeth !ii moth

li red, we shall have plenty of heart
aches when , they
np.
Strict
truthfiilucss must rule t our. dealings
with the young ; our yea must be yea,
and our nay nay, and that to the lot1
ter and the moment. Never promise a
child and then foil to perform, whether
you promise him a bun or a beatiingf.
lie obeyed at all costs- .disobedient
children are . unhappy children; for
their own sakes make them mind you.
If you yield up your authotity once,
you will hardly ever get it again, for L
who saj-s'A. must sa 1, and so on. I
We must not provoke our children u
anger, lest they hi discouraged, but
we must rule our household in the feat
of the Lord, and in so doing may cxl
peet a blessing. ; j
Since John Ploughman ba3 taken tnj
writing, he has had a fine chance of
showing his firmness, and his gentle
ness too, -for he has received bushels
of advi' o, for which he begs to present!
his compliments, as the squire's lad v!
says, and he does not mind either re
turning the advice of some of his own
instead, by way of showing his grati
tude ; for he i3 sure it is very kind of

The great question of tLc hour is
not only shall we prohibit, but etc
am ic? Oao great argument
1 , .,- . r , ,
frsed. by the . opponents of . frolubrtion
is that you can't frame a law that will I
prohibit that can be executed. We
submit the following ' for consideration
which with some little" change's by
ourselves, was suggested in the H Vs
(trn M4ftodtst by lion. J. M. Clayton.
If we are in earnest ant? mean to do
the thing rigid, let the law be made
clear and tigid: . ; ,
1. Let the, importation,, manufacture
sale, or other disposal to the public of
all alcohol or alcoholic liquors be pro
hibited by law, except for medicinal,
scientific or mechanical purposes only
and as herein provided.
2. Where the people of a township,
municipality or waid of a - city- b3' a
majority of the adult residents of the
same shull "" recommend a trust worthv
person, of good moral character, to
keep on hand for sale alcohol or alco
holic 'liquors for such; purposes as
specified Above, he shall be appointed
agent for such sale by ti e County Com
missioners. 3. Let such agent bw required to
give bond, with approved secuiily,
ia the sum of $2000. for the propei
observance of lnw. .
4. Let said agent be "required to
keep a regiateT op-eu. to the inspection
of the public, in which shall be record
ed in columns provided the date, name
of the parly obtaining, amount ob
tained, and fof what pirpose in th
case of each 'individual the party sign
ing his or her own name or mark.
5. Let said agent be required to
present said register to tlic Commis
sijncrs for examination at each regu
lar meeting, and make oath .lhatsaid
register contains all his sales or other
di3iosal to the public of all 'alcohol
or alcoholic liquors ; no more--.io less.
G. Let said agent be empowered to
administer an oath to each and every
person so. obtaining, which oath shall
be printed or written at the top oi
each page of said register, as follows :
.whose name appears belo'v do
solemnly swear (or affirm) that the
alcohol or alcholic liquor here obtained
byr me is not for beverage purposes,
and that the line or lines 6.1 which my
name appears contiij all the tccts re
lating to the same.
7. Let it be required that said agent
shall have framed and hung in a con
spicuous place in his. establishment a
copy of the law governing his sales.
8. Said agent shall not in an 3- wise
furnish alcohol or- alcohcl'c liquors to
persons of - minor age, except they be
hsads of families, or present a written
order from the parent or guardian ol
such minor. -. '
'J. O i conviction of a. violation of
this law let the right to further engage
in the business be forfeited by said
agent, and a penalty bo imposed of
not less th in 200 nor more than $.ij00
for each and everr offense, together
with imprisonment in the . county j iil
for a term not less than sixty days in
each case. I
10. Any Derson obtaining Bliquors
from said agent under f:rse pretences,
or that shall usj the same as a bever
age or any person fc und in a state of
intoxication, shall, upon conviction
thereof" suffer a penalty of not less
than $."0 fine and imprisonment in the
county jail not less linn len nor more
than thirty d.ays.
11.. Said agent shall not be required
to pay other than usual drag license,
and if not paid a stated salar3by the

What sttall we do with the monster
evil of the liqiior traCc? "nesulatt it
by a system oflicenso," i the usual
rcjily ofour Statesmen. -.But time and
experience have proven; the license
plan a total failure. The 'bible plan of
(, ' . , . , . r 1 -
! untwist a whin wind, or rc2uUle a
j f .. ,- . ; .. . .
most as to suppress the crimes' oTthe
liquor trafic: by a " sy stem of legalized
license. . There Is only one way of
dealing wiili every form of cril, and
that is by the radical mode of extirpa
tion root it out of the land. This is
God's pi .in. How docs the bible tjreat
sin? I3'. a sysicm of legalized licerise?
No. But by positive prohibition.
"Thou shalt not kill." That is God's
way of suppressing the gty.it crime of
murdef. DoCs the liquor business
.murder ir.cii? Y.s, more than red-
handed war. "Thou shalt not steal."
That ia the law of God - against' t hein
of thieving.- It is lotilly prohibi tory.
"Thou -shalt not boar fal-e witness
against thy .neighbor'- "Thou shall
not commii adultery." This is tiie
way the bible deal-, with crimes. It is
positive, toal yrohibitioii. . '
Now. as the liquor trafic produces
more horrible crimes, spreads more
deadly evils over the land, is the c'o
lo.?s?d evils of evils, it ought t(j be sup
pressed by total legal pToh 'tlticn. Ii
is mere chili's play-for the Legislature
to pass such laws against the trafic as
merel3- prohibit "us sale. on Sunday, or
to minors. No; 'what the people de
mand is entire proh b'.tion. Dj you
suppose that rin3! crime cculd bs sup
pressed by such laws as our legislators
p'as against the liquor business? Let
us see how itwordd fie? ad : Be i! enac
ted by the General Assembly of the
State of North Carolina. That no per
son shall steal, or murder, on Sunday;
no person shall steal from a minor, or
within two miles of a -Methodist camp
ground. How'perfectly ridiculous the
thing appears in this light. ' Wby, if if
is wrong to steal at afl, ft is? wrong to
steal any where or from any lx dy. -And
if it 13 wrong 'to sell l'quor on
Sunday.,- or to a-minor or jwithin two
miles of a. church, it is wrong' to do it
at)3 where or' to any body.! Lot the
Legislature pass a law prohibiting the
manufacture and. sale of intoxicating
liquors as a beverage, ami make pro
visions for its-proper enforcement, then
this upas tree of death will be cut up
