HARPER BROTHERS.
Not far from where the present estab
lishment of the Harpers stands, James
Harper began his work. He held the
lowest position in the office. All mean
and servile work was put upon him.
The sons of judges, alderman, lawyers
and men of money were in trade and
merchandise arround the printing office.
These pert well-dressed, and proud
striplings often en ssed the pathway of
the rustic lad. His shoes were heavy,
course and ungabily. His clothes made
from cloth manufactured in the old
homestead, were rough". in material and
slovenly iu make. The young bucks
delighted to ridicule James. They
would shout to him across the street
44 Did your boots come from Paris?"
44 Jim, give us a card to your tailor."
44 What did your mother give a yard
lor your broadcloth?" Sometimes the
rude fellows came near and under pre
tense of the fineness of the cloth, would
grab the flesh. Insulting and taunting
as all this was, he bore it for a while
with meekness. This was construed
into cowardice. '
JAMES' FIEST CARD.
The vounsr printer saw that he must
end this treatment, and could only do
it bv lakine a firm, manly stand. He
had no idea 'of wealth or position. It
was his purpose to do right to so con
duct himselt that his mother wouia not
be ashamed of him. All the success
and position that could attend fidelity
to duty, he meant to secure ; out ne re
solved not to be . imposed upon. One
day while doing some menial work, he
was assaulted by one of his tormentors.
He deliberately set down the pail that
i j u: -
ne was carying, lurneuou ui assaiinub,
booted him severely, and then said :
"Take that ; that's my card; take good
care of it. When I am out ol my time,
and set up for myself, and you need
employment, as you will, comedo me,
and bring that card, and I will give you
work." Strange to say, forty-one years
after, that same person came to James
Harper's establishment and asked em
ployment, claiming it on the groud that
the " card" he had given him forty-one
years before, he had kept to that day.
ORIGIN OF THE HOUSE.
When James was free, haying served
out his time, his master said to him,
"You have been faithful, and shall al
ways have a gKd place in my office."
The master was not a little surprised to
hear the young man announce his in
tention of setting up for himself. Al
ready he said he could have the print
ing of a book ii be could, get a certifi
cate that he was worthy of it. If his
master would give him the certificate
he could get the job. This was readily
fiven, and the work begun. In 1817
ames and John Harper opened a small
book and job printing pffice in Dover
street. ' ifivert lmyckinck, tne leading
publisher of that day, was the first to
employ the Harpers. The first book
published by the firm was Seneca's Mor
al, 2000 copies of which were deliverd
on the 5 th day of August 1817. The
second job was of - more- consequence.
The Book to be printed was the Epis
copal Prayer Book It was to be stereotyped.-
That part of the craft in those
days "was iri a crude state, and the work
rudely done. They had contracted to
do the work for fifty ' cents a token.
lhey found that they would have to
pay the full sum to have it stereotyped,
and no profit would be left to them
selves- They resolved to stereotype
the work. It was difficult and slow ;
but it was done, and gave great satis
faction. It was pronounced the best
piece of stereotyping ever seen in New
York. The .character of the work com
lQg Irom this firm, its industry, probity,
P'oinptness, and enterprise placed it at
once at the head of the business in New
lork. In 8ix years the ; establishment
became the largest in the city. To the
figmal firm, in 1823. the name of
ioo,We8y Harper was added. , In,

Remaekable Phenomenon Water
Spout and Whirlwind Peoperty
destroyed. Yesterday, about one o'
clock, the people of our neighboring
town of New Castle, Delaware, were
thrown into serious alarm by the ad
vent of a most extraordinary visitor,
which came very suddenly from the
clouds. It was first observed, as an in
telligent eyewitness informs us, oppo
site the town, on tbc New Jersey side
of the river. From the surface of the
water there rose an enermous cone of
cloud from forty to sixty feet in dia
meter at the base, very dense, very
dark. From an overhanging surcharg
ed thunder cloud in the sky there de
pended a similar cone, and the apexes
of the two met. The sky at the time
was not clear, the sun was obscured,
but there was no rain falling nor any
general shower. The water in the two
cones was violently in motion, whirl
ing round and round with the greatest
rapidity, and making a loud noise. Tt
appeared to be canght up from the river
in great volume, and portions which
fell "back in spray shone and sparkled
brightly, making the whole spectacle
most beautiful, though terrifying to the
beholder.
The spout moved rapidly across the
river, taking perhaps some ten or fifteen
minutes to reach this side. It entered
the town of New Castle on the upper
side, and struck first a frame dwelling
on the river bank, occupied by a color
ed family. The force of the shock was
tremendous, yet the column of water
did not envelope the house, but rather
brushed against it. The weather board
ing was torn off, every window bursted,
and the trame studding ol the building
wrenched out of place. The fence
around was turn loose and carried away.-
Atter this exploit it passed on across
the lots toward the shop of Mr. John
Chiirnside, tearing up fences aud every
thing that came in its way ; fortunately
for Mr. Churnside, it passed to the north
of his shop, thereby escaping a very
heavy loss of property and perhaps life ;
the edge of the maelstrome however
reached some wagons, drills, and mow
ing machines standing at the edge of
the shop. A two-horse express wagon
was picked up and carried several rods,
and after being tossed about in every
conceivable manner, was thrown out of
the roaring vortex and broken almost to
atoms.
Another dearbron was drawn in and
torn to peices. A large heavy grain
drill was gathered up and set down on
the opposite side of the road. Near here,
a little child was picked up and carried
some distance perhaps a hundred feet
over the fence into a neighboring
yard, where it was set down unin jured.
As it crossed the road immense clouds
of dost and other matter were caught
up and whirled around with the water.
The hurricane or whatever it might
now be called proceeded on its way
up the meadow of Mr. Janvier, taking
up everything that came in the way of
its progress ; horses and cattle making
good time to get out or its way. The
storm now appeard to be on the de
crease. J.he cylindric tunnel had al
most disappeared, and yet while we
stood and watched its progress up to
the meadow, a couple of trees which
had withstood the tempest of ages
were torn up by the roots and thrown
aside. Wit. (2el.) Commercial.

ing held some executive or judicial office under a
general law of the 8tate, he afterwards engaged
hi the rebellion, or tave aid and comfort td per

competent judicial tribunal, or by an act ol Con
gress, or law ot a State, he has been dislranchised

2d. Any person who has not acquired a resi
dence in tne estate.
3d. Any person otherwise qualified by age and

II. A citizen, not included within either of the
above specified classes, although he . may have
voluntarily taken part iu the rebellion. is q ualiticd :
so a citizen included within the 3d or 4th class.

ed by civil officers : poun J-masters, jailors ap
pointed by sheriffs, etc.: these are not offices
created by law for the administration of a general
1 o.A.A 1 .. .1 1 1 . . . ; r i .
There are, however, certain municipal or town
officers within the intent and meaning of the Acts
ot Congress, and who by subsequent acts in aid
of the rebellion, would be disqualified. For ex
ample, a mayor of a city, or intendant of a town,
who mav have been, by virtue of his office, a
tnatristrate, having authority by law to hear and
determine complaints lor petty offences, and to

Municipal or town officers, bavintr authority
to enforce mere local ordinances in the nature of
police regulations, for the preservation of order,
the regulation of trade, and the abatement of nu
isances, or other strictly corporate matters, are
not within the disfranchising provisions' of the
Act.
The circumstance, nevertheless, that the duties
of an officer were performed within a prescribed

are in the public service.
. Officers of Militia, employed In the execution
of the Patrol Laws, or other laws having relation
to the domestic order of the State and the government
of the slave population therein, and who after
wards engaged m tne reDeinon, are disqualified ;
such offices, although military in name, are civil
and executive in their duties.
Certain employments, licensed by authority of
state laws, caving relation to tne administration
of Justice, are not officers within the meaning ot
the acts ; for example, lawyers.
AH officers auxiliary to Courts, such as Clerks
of Courts, Master in Equity, etc. etc.. created by

ways, land commissioners, overseers ot the poor,
Captains of Beat Companies.

States, and having taken upon themselves the
obligations and duties belonging to citizens, and

the pretended government of the "Confederate
States ot America." aud voluntarily took ud
arms against the United States, or gave aid and
comtort to me enemies tuereoi, nave ceased by
their own act to be citizens of the United States,
