' Somebody aid that "tbe juice of lib erty was the blood of the brave," or words to that effect, and so the juice of prosperity is the sweat of tbe labor ing man. I was" ruminating over this the other day as I looked at a, gang of men digging in an iron mine. Machin ery is a good thing but there are many things that nothing but the human band and arm can do. Machines can't dig ore nor shovel dirt on a railroad, nor pick cotton, nor split rails, nor build a fence, nor pull fodder nor load a wagon. Machines may make brick, but they cau't lay 'cm in a wall, nor frame a house, nor, plaster it,, nor nail the shin' glers on. There are a thousand things that muscle has got to do, and will al ways have to do, and . tho. time wiil never come when all men can play tho gentleman or live by brains- alone. It's contrary to reason and scripture. Brains rank; . muscle, Cbuffinuscle 'is" the most u-kld:-) -i-VL j -i- horiest. Brains are trickly and shifty and put? on many airs. Muscle doe the work and brains get the benefit, and it struts around, like big Ike. There was a railroad built not long ago and brains took the job at sixty thousand resort, 1iy authority in hie vesteil, by an ordi-r of the f nprior"Pourti , A lamance . county., I will sell at the Court Howie door IB Graham, t public outcry, to the highest bidder, on Monday, December 3, 183, A tract of land 'In Graham iAwncb.''

' dollars a mile and sub-let it again for thirty thousand, and then it was cut up into sections and let at 28c. a cubit yard, and then sub-let again at 25c., -and the last man hired laborers to work for a dollar a day, and one man would grade six yards in a day and take pay in gools at one hundred per cent, profit .. So the work cost actually about ten cents a yard. Sweat and muscle got ten cents and brains about 50 and that's about the way with most of the work that farm ers and mechanics and laboring men do. If the tariff protects the manufacturer' he puts the protection in his pooket and hires his labor at the same old price. It is protection to capital only. v The podr are kept poor and the rich' get richer, and that is the reason why labor fs so Unpopular. It don't pay. Our young men are ambitious. They come home from school and from college and begin to look round for a living, and apd they see that muscle don't pay and they begin to draw on their brains. .1 have done for humanity. ; .Well, some of em about that time do give off a lit tle lot of money to colleges and asylums and churches and expect to get credit for it up yonder on St. Peter's book but they won't; It is a sort of conscience money and come too late a little too late they kept it to the Upland squeez ed it tight and would have kept in lon ger if they could. Can't balance St. Peter's book that way. Rather than work, the majority of mankind would stealifit wasn't against. the-law, and they' come mighty nigh doing.it any how. , There are ten thousand ways to get another man's money without rob bing him accordiug to law. I wa9 look ing oyer the advertisement of pateDt medicines in a northern paper and noted the different ways in which' they fooled the suffering people and get their mon ey. . It is reduced down to a regular science. Most of them slip up on you with decent lying, but I saw one yester day which played it bolder and bigger than all the rest. It said , "ears eor the million. Poo Choo's Balsam of Sharks' Oil has never failed in a single instaniie to cure deafness. This Oil is extracted from the White Shark of the Yellow sea and known as Charcharodon Rondeleth. Ita cures are so miraculous that the Chinese Emperor ordered all. his deaf subjects to use it, and there has Jnot been a single case of deafness among 400,000,000 of Chinamen for 300 years. Price $1 a bottle. . Now the world is full of fools and lots of 'em will send for that stuff, I think I see the heathen Chinese catching theba sharks in the Yellow sea. Eyery drug store in the laud in crammed with just such frauds, and every newspaper gives 'em a left-handed indorsement by adver tising 'em. Our Jaw makers ought to pass a law forbidding it1 unless they were endorsed by the medical faculty of the State. Guano and . kerosene has to go through the crucible and be tested, but these frauds and poisons go free and take millions away from our credulous people. All these tricks are to dodge work and get a living by not earning it. Gambling is forbidden by law, but gamblipg is a respectable and innocent business compared with it, for gamblers jnst swap for one another's money and keep it i changing around. Sometimes brains get low down and anxious, and goes to buying lottery tickets as a last I can always tell how bad off a and alkali and sand and gravel and clay j Therefore everyone ought to be thor- poor fellow is when I see him investing in lottery tickets. He is hard up sure. He wants something for nothing mighty bad, and he gets nothing for something. A long' time .ago I bought a qnarter ticket. It was numbered. 2401 and I saw it could be divided by 7 three times even, and 7 was a mystic number,' and so I thought I had the deadwood on the lottery but it, just went along all the name and gobbled up my money. Card players say there is luck under a nine and over a' deuce, but to my opinion there is no lucky number to a man who does not give .value received for what he gets. Brains are sly and restless, and have lots of secrets, but muscle is open and candid and content with little. The working man is satisfied with the and subsoil and grass and grains and implements and such like, and he wants plenty of muscle to go along with it. Brains and muscle mixed make the best man I know and iho most useful to tbe Siate. Bill Abp. . The Fist Quality of Manhood. You want to know, Tom, what is the first quality of manhood ?, Well listen. I am going to tell you in one little word of five letters. And I am going to write that word in very large letters as though you were deaf, so that you may not for get it. The word is "TRUTH." Now then, remember, trnth is the only foun dation on which can bo erected a man hood that is worthy of being so called. Now mark what I say,truth must be the foundation'on which the whole character is to be erected,' for otherwise, no matter how beautiful the upper stories may be, and no matter of how good material they may be built, the edifice, the char acter, the manhood will be but a sham which offers no sure refuge and protec tinn to those who seek it, for it will tumble down when trial comes. Alas, my young boy, the world is very full of such shams of manhood in every profes sion and occupation. There are law yers in this town who know that they have never had any training to tit them for their work, who yet impose upon the people and take their money for giving them advice which they know they are unfitted to give. I heard of one lately who advised his partner "never to have anything to do with law books, for they confuse his mind." There are ignorant physicians who know that they are ig norant, and who can and do impose up on neonle more ignorant than them- selves. "Thcre are preachem without number pretending to know what they have never learned. Don't you see that their manhood la at best but beau tiful deceit? Now I want you to be a man, and. that you may be that, I want you first and foremost to be true, thor oughly true. I hope you would scorn i to tell a lie, but, that is only the begin ning of truthfulness. I want you to de- oughly educated. If not now under the necessity of making a Jiving , for themselves, they may eometime be re duced to that necessity. Adversity may come upon any family and ita cir cumstances become such as to require every member to make a living. Marri age may not be offered from a worthy source, and if it is, widowhood or other misfortunes may make it necessary to earn a support.' How can "it be done? In no way better than teaching. To teach successfully requires a thorough education. We, therefore say that ev ery girl lu this broad land ought never to rest until she has acquired an educa tion. Every parent onght to determine that every daughter at least, shall be educated. He is criminal if he does not. Far better give a girl this than any in heritance auy of our people can give. It will enable herto support herself and move in the best circles of society if 8he never marries: while if she does, it will in pine cases out of ten increase her opportunities ten-fold for an elligiblo alliance. Any inan worthy of a good woman had rather marry, an intelligent, cultivated, refined lady without a cent of money than to have any amount; of money any parent is able to give ' with her if she is without ' this culture. Of course the wealthy can educate; but we urge that the poor also ought to., do sol No sacrifice ought to be too great to ac complish this end. Every man ought to stint food and raiment if need be to give his daughter this, to her, inestima ble blessing. Suppose she marries' and never has to go into school-room. She can be of incalculable help to her husband and to the country In training the family. . It is useless to argue the influence and blessing ot a cultivated, refined mother upon the family. If y ery family had such a . mother there would be no danger but that the coun try would improve. ' , Then single or married it is the grand desideratum for our females. Especial ly is this so now. Look at our social condition ! See th threatened leveling of our social fabric I Who, when be spise all sham, all pretense, all effort to considers these, things, can for one mo- seem to be otherwise than you are. When we have laid that foundation then we can go on to build up a manhood, glori ous and godlike, after the perfect image of Him, the perfect Man, who said that he was born that He might bear witness to the truth. Bishop Dudley. Education. The education of white males, we at tempted to show last week, ought to be governed by circumstances chiefly by the pursuits in life intended to be adopt ed as a life-work. To be useful toothers and prepare one for success in the great battle of life ought to be the ends in view, Many a young man with only an ordinary English education, yet thor oughly trained for tbe business in which he enlists hews his way to the highest ment consent to let a daughter grow up without lifting her above every possible vicissitude that may befall her ? . Edu cate, educate, educate your children t Young boys for the business pursuits of life as best you can your girls thorough ly even if tbe boys are neglected. It is their only sure hope and' help," and is the sheet anchor for the safety and ad vancement of our race and country.

Every time he plunged in and said something approaching the subject he would be Beized with, a spell of bashfulness and would contort his face as if about to have a fit.
