Andrew Carnegie lays down the following rules as the basis of ac quiring wealth : ' "In my opinion the secret of money-making depends chiefly apon five things: Push, equareness, clear-headedness, economy, and rigid adherence to the rule of not overworking. Too much work is worse than so work at all. It un dermines the constitution and un fits a man mentally and physically for the battle of life. Ten hours a day of steady work is as much as any man no matter how robust ought to attempt. In addition to these things, avoid being too grasp ing; better make a small profit by sure means than attempt to make a larger one by uncertain and risky measures." Daily Record. J- Blind Your PVs.

The Southern Pines editorial correspondent to the Lyndon Vermont Union says : From conversations there and elsewhere, I learn that Southern ers have great respect for North erners, and I happened to know that since the war Northerners have a great deal more respect for Southerners than they had be fore, when they were going to "lick 'em in three months." The Southern man, like a Northern man, is an American and does not "lick" easily. Moreover the Southerner does not fight unless he believes he is right, and under that conviction, you get all the fight there is in him. Had they known each other as well before as since the war, there would have been no fight, but the irrepressible conflict would have been settled by the purchase of the negroes, which would have distributed the expense over, the whole country, instead as fasten ing it upon a part.
