"iX; V0 t;1'1'1'1"'." replied Judge Gibbons, of Lancaster, Pa., in the barroom of the Girard House. "I am sixty three years old and have never used tobacco in any form, never have tasted malt or spirituous liquors, never have been to a borne race or attended a circus or a theatre n ..v- . . , ... "Yours has been au cxemplarv life, judge." "Well, I don know that it has," con- tinned the judge, sadly. "I am, after all no better than titer men : for the past forty eight years I have been the abject slave to one ungovernable appetite. This indulgence has gained such absolute con- tiol of me that I cannot exist four or five hours without gratifying it. In the streets, at church, during family prayers it torments me. I struggle against it. I resolve and re-resolve to break it off, but I am weak very weak :ml finally yield. I cannot go halt a day without it. No, I daren't travel where I can't obtain it. It is killing me. Twenty years ago I weigh- etl 220 pounds. Now I weigh 120. It is destroying my life, slowlv but surely. I shall die of it." "What form does this deadly dissipa tion take V asked the reporter, in amaze ment, prepared for an appalling confes sion, 'Oiush jtud miik," was the solemn and humiliating rejoinder. The Chestnut. The chestnut tree is valuable fur sever al purposes, says a newspaper writer, and now tluit there is considerable inter est arising in the planting of timber, it may be worth while to learn something of tl.is tree. By reference to the market reports of lumber, it will be fouud that chestunt timber is worth $40 per 1,000 feet. Counting the sawing Jit $4 to $b' per 1,000 feet, itjeaves the value of an ordinary-sized chestnut tree to be about $18, allowing only 500 feet of timber to each one. As it is easy for fovty trees to grow upon an acre, which would bring t hem 33 feet apart, an acre of fairh growii chestnut timber would be worth, standing, $720, for the limbs and tops alone would be worth for firewood as mrfc.li as the cost of felling and sawing the tree, and the $750 would represent the actual value of the logs. But this is not the whole, by any means. A chest nut tree begins to bear at the age of 8 vears, and every year will pav in its fruit the interest on the land at the rate of $200 per acre at seven per cent, inter est. The nttts jnst now are worth $10 per bushel. They are scarce and high this year, but the average price is $3 per bushel. Allowing half a peck only to a tree properly attended to and growing in groves at a distance of 33 feet apart, this would give five bushels per acre and a yearly income of $15 without cost more than picking up the nuts. By a little care in killing off the chestnut moth, which injures the fruit by depositing its eggs in it and producing the worms which bore the fruit, a higher price could be procured for the nuts, for which there is an extensive demand. So that the tree will begin to pay a yearly income after eight years, and this will gradually in crease as the tree grows larger and will finally yield a handsome sum of money when but 20 years old. If intended to be cut at that time they may be planted 20 feet apart, and a hundred trees may be grown upon an acre. No replanting is necessary. The trees sprout from the stump freely, and a considerable sum may be made after five or six years from the poles which can be thinned out. Is there any more valuable than this for the farmer who has land out of cultivation to plant for profit ? Dont! Don't go t bed with cold feet.

We want a religion that softens the step and tunes tiie voice to melo dy, that checks the impatient excla mation and harsh rebuke; a religion that is polite, deferential to supe riors, courteous to inferiors and con siderate to friends ; a religion that goes into the family, and keeps the husband from being cross when din ner is- late, and keeps the wife from fretting when the husband tracks the newly -washed floor with his muddy boots, and makes the husband mind ful of the scraper and the door mat ; keeps the mother patient when the baby is cross, and amuses the chil dren as well as instructs them ; can's for the servants besides paying them up promptly ; projects the honey moon into the harvest moon, and makes the happy home like the Eastern rig tree, bearing ih its.bosom at once the beauty of its tender blos s one ami the glory of the ripened fruit. . We want a religion that shall interpose between the ruts and gul lies and rocks of ihe highway of life, i l.I I A I I and t lie sensitive soiiis mat travel over them. Con Cures. This is the season when the famil iar cough is heard on every hand, and every one is suggesting a remedy. We know of two that aie perfect cures. One for children, is to take half a teacup whole fl.ixssecd, wash through three or four waters and put in a pan with two quarts of soft cold water. Let it cool till slightly thick ened, pleasant for drinking, take off, strain and add juice of one lemon and sugar to taste. Give warm as much as child w ill take before going to bed. This will relieve in almost all cases, but if after three or four trials it Tails, try the well-whipped white of an egg, mixed with one table-spoon sugar and juice of a lemon; give half a tcasK)oti after each spell of coughing, being careful not to give too much or too often as the pure juice of lemon is quite strong for them. These are g o I f r older peo ple but the most effective cure is : One ounce pressed mullein (or the leaves,) one-half ounce pressed hoar hound, and one quart soft water put on to boil ; if necessary, add more water. When the strength is well extracted, so the syrup is as thin mo lasses, or even thinner, take of strain und add one pint Aew Orleans mo iasses aud bottle for use. The dose is one tabiespuou four times a day, or after every coughing spell will do no harm. Some simply make a tea of the mullein, sweeten and take. 1 his has been tried to our knowledge where consumption was feared, and the cure was perfect. The House keeper. Not to be Outdone. No one person is expected to know everything, yet many persons fall into blunders aud are laughed at be- ause they have not the courage to say, '1 don't know.' A young Japan ese of high rank, sent to the United States to be educated, was very un willing to admit that all was new to him in our country. He took great care never to express surprise, aud to gain information in some other way than by asking direct questions. Being a guest one day at a gentle man's table, he so far forgot himself as to express his relish for the miuoe pie. i ,v 'W hat s its name: 'We call this 'uiiuce pie.' I'm glad you like it. Do you have mince pie in Japan f askedjlhe ladv. 0h thank mince . fc ,. .. , 1 my country, lie replied . 'Of what do they make them there?' asked the lady.'

The great secret of gaining happi ness in life is to enjoy the preseut. To be doing one thing and thinking f another is a very unsatisfactory mode of sending life. Some people are always wishing llieiuselves some where but w here they are, or think ing of something else than what they are doing, or of somebody eUe than to whom they are speaking. This is the way to enjoy nothing, to do nothing well, and to please nobody. It is better to be interested in inferior per sons and inferior things than to be indiffereut with the best. A princi pal cause of this indifference is the udoptiou of other people's tastes in stead of the cultivation of their own, the pursuit after that for which we are not fitted, and to which conse quently we are not in reality inclined. This folly pervades more or less all classes, and arises from the error of building our enjoyment on the false foundation of the world's opinion, in stead of being, with due regard to others, each our own world. Foreign Ways of Fatteuiugr Calves. In Flanders and the north of France calves are fattened in narrow cribs. These pens are two feet wide and five deep, and portable. The litter is nev er removed, but renewed as required. Decoctions of poppy heads are added to the milk to induce the animal to sleep. At Dens, in Germany, M. SHJviurth gave his cat ves sknned iniiu, j and to represent the cream, three1 ounces daily, at the rate of one ounce per repast of beef or mutton suit, lard or turnip seed oil ; at the end of the fourth week the grease was reduced by one-half and replaced by cake and meal. The veal was found to be as good us that produced from pure milk. In weaning calves hay tea enters largely as a substitute for milk ; then linseed gruel. Russia beer is largely mixed with the milk, which explains the enormous size of the calves. Two pounds of hay are steeped in nine quarts of warm water, ami five quai ls of the tea are estimated us equal to one quart of milk. In Belgium calves are allowed to lick a lump of chalk, as sheep and cattle are rek salt ; strong purgatives are rarely resorted to. In the Beauee, where so much veal is real til, from two to two aud one half ounces of soluble cream of tartar, dissolved in tour quarts of water, is a luvorile recipe; administer the drink every hour pending twelve to fifteen hours. If colic appears add a little opium to the mixture. Michigan Far mer. Pink Eye Hrse scarlet fever, or the so-called "pink eye," forms the subject of an interesting paper by Dr. John C. Pe ters, in the .New York Medical Jour nal, of December 15. The conclusion is that various diseases of animals, communicable to man and vice vtrm, had frequently prevailed in our great car stables along the river fronts, among such diseases being diphthe ria, scarlatina, and true measles, or a hybrid of measles and scarlet fever. Inoculations with the blood, tears, and usual mucus have produced the disease, the so-called "pink eye," hav ing thus been conveyed from a partly blooded horse to a cart-horse, from that to Guinea pigs, and from them to a poney. Young horses take the disease more frequently than older animals, although the latter are not always exempt. On the seventh day improvement generally commences, but the disorder seems most .conta gious at that time. The trouble is self-limited ordinarily, so that pallia tive treatment is all that is required. A feed governor for cotton gins has leen patented by Mr. Henry P. Schaefer, of Schulenberg, Texas. Most giu saws now suck or draw in the cotton fastest at the central part of the saw shaft, drawing the cotton from the edges of the feed board to ward the central saws, drawing in from the thicker edges such portion us will make the whole supply to the gin saws even and regular and pre- vent all choking. Cheerfulness. Many people are always complain ing of their circumstances. Are there not persons from whom you can sel dom hear the contented tone? They have had, or are going to have all the ills flesh is heir to. There are people who never live in the right place, who are in the wrong business. Misfor tune is their daily bread. They are bruised and wounded, slightest and tormented, misused and afflicted. Cheerfulness and contentment never make any man's lot harder to bear, but many, many is the time they have made trials easier to bear and circum stances endurable. Many people are never q (lite so happy as they used to be. They never have quite so warm, dear friends as in former times, or in other places. Friend, the good you now have and present friends are not to be despised. Is there then so much good iii life that we can afford to throw any of it away ? Why not make the most of the good we have ? Let us stand off from despondencies. Listen for sweet notes rather than discord. City of Mexico, Jan. 2. A hur ricane occurred on the Mexican coast, on Novemlier 4, which entirely de stroyed the town of Altaka at the port of that name. Not a house re mained standing and the vessels at anchor suffered severely. At Mazit lan the wind blew with great vio lence and the sea was excessively rough. When the gale commenced the Mexican steamer Democruta and the barks Carlos II., Aladin and Hannodiiis were at anchor. The Aladin cut away her anchors, losing her first mute in the operation, as he was carried overboard and drowned. I Shediifted on the beach at Puerto' Visjo, near Cameron. Her crew sue ceeded in reaching shore, with the exception id two who were drowned. The Harmodius sent down her ui - per masts and arils and rode the gale out in safety. Man that is married to woman is id many days and full of trouble. In the morning he draws his salary, aud in the evening behold it is gone.

He spendeth his sheckels in the purchase of fine linen to cover the bosom of his family yet himself is seen in the gates of the city with one suspender. Yea, he is alto gether wretched. Ray City Tribune. Bow Fire is Carried in Cot ton. Edward Atkinson, of Boston, says: "Fire lurks in a cotton hale for weeks. The cotton which was in jured somewhat over a year ago in iiiddeford, Me., was moved to South Boston for sale. The fire broke oHit again more than once while it wus at South Boston being made ready for sale. The fire broke out again in one parcel while it was on the cars being carried away, and in another parcel alter it hud been received at a fuc'.ory where it was to be used. The latest outbreak was, I think, thirty days after the original fire." Wberc the Old Maids Come In. 4I)o yon know, sir,' inquired an Ameri can tourist d' his companion, while doing England, "can you inform me the reason for the fresh, healthful appearance of the English people? Their complexion is far superior to ours, or our country men over the herring pond.' 'Wei!, I know what Prof Huxley says.' 'And what reason does he ttdrauceT' Well, Huxley Rays it is all owing to the old maids.' 'Owing to old maids! You surprise me.' 'Fact. Huxley figmes it out this way. Now, you know the English are very fond of roast beef.' 'But what has that to do with old luauU V 'U slow. This genuine English beef is t lie best aud most, nutritious beef in the world, audit imparts a beautiful complexion.1 'Well, about the old maids.' 'Yes, you Rce the the excellence of the English beef is due exclusively to red clover. Do you ses the point V All but the old maids. They arc still hovering in the shadows.' 'Why, don't you see ? This red clover is em i bed, aweentened, and r .e.ifi d by bumblebees.' 'lint w here do the old maids come in V said the inquisitive American, wiping his brow wearily. Why, it is as plain as the nose on your face. The only enemy of the buiu-bh'-bee is the field mouse.' 'Rut what have roast beef, red clover, bumbls-bees, and held mice got to do with old maids f Why, you must lie very obtHse. Don't you perceive that the bumble-bees would soon become exterminated by the field mice if it were not for ' 'Old maids?' Xo, if it were not for cats, and the old maids of Old England keep the country thoroughly stocked up with cats, and so we can directly trace the effects of the rosy English complexions to the benign cause of English old maid.-; at least that's what Huxley says about it, and M ER0NEY Have Largest and most DRY GOODS A.1STD NOTIONS A Splendid line of black and colnred 0ASHMERS, from tSJ to U cent, per jird Wn have "or l."T nf Sit K VELVETS.

In an ordi nary quart bottle three parts tilled with water, dissolve a spoonful of pure white sugar, cork it well, aud put in a warm place. If at the end of forty-eight hours the water becomes turbid and milky, there can be no doubt of its impurity ; but if it remain limpid, it may be consid ered drinkable.
