A little boy named Frank, was stand inf; in the yard, when his father called him: “ Frank ?” " Sir!” said Frank, and started full speed and ran into the street. His father called him back, and asked him if he did not hear Irim call. “ Yes, sir,” said Frank. "Well, then,” said his father, "what made you run into the street?” " O,” said Frank, “ I got a going and couldn’t stop.” This is the way that a great many boys get into difficulty ; they get a going and can’t stop. The boy that tells lies, be gan first to stretch the truth a little—to tell a large story, or relate an anecdote with a very little variation, till he got a going and couldn’t stop till he came out a full grown liar. The boy that was brought before the police and sent to the House of Correc tion for stealing, began by taking little things from his mother—by stealing swcatineats ami other nice things that wore put away. Next he began to take things from his companions at school, lie got a going and could not stop until lie got in jail. Those two boys that you see fighting out on the green, began by bantering each other iu fun. At length they began to get angry and dispute, and call each other names, till they got a going and couldn’t stop. They will separate with black eyes and bloody noses. There is a young man sitting late with his companions at the gaming table. He has flushed cheeks, an anxious look, a despairing countenance. He has lost bis last dollar. lie began by playing marbles iu the street, but ho got a going ami couldn't stop. See that young man, with a dark lan tern ttealing from his master's drawer. Ho is a merchant’* clerk. He came from the country, a promising boy. But the re3t of the clerks went to the theatre and he thought he mustgotoo. He be gan thinking he would only go once, just to say that he had boon to the theatre. But he got a going and couldn’t stop. Ho has used up his wages, and wants more money. He cannot resist the temptation, when he knows there is money iu the drawer. He has got a go iag—he will stop in the State Prison. 'fork ! do you hear that horrid oath ? It comes from the foul mouth of a little boy in the street. He began by saying by-words, but ho has got a going and can’t stop. 1 ifty young men were some years ago In the habit of meeting together in a room at a public house to enjoy them selves in social hilarity, where the wine cup passed freely around. One of them, as ho was going there one evening began to think there might bo danger in the way. He stopped and considered a mo ment. and then said to himself. “Right about face !” He turned on his heel and went back to his room, and was never seen at the public house again. He has become rich, and the first block of build ings which he erected was built directly in front of the place where he stood when he made that exclamation. Six of the youug men followed his example. There inaimug forty-three got going and couldn’t stop till they landed in the ditch and most of them in the drunkard's grave. Beware, then, boys how you get a going. Be sure before you start that you arc in the right way, for when you are sliding down hill it is hard to stop. Tiiidcte to Phinteks.-— The Chaplain of the New Hampshire Penitentiary, in reviewing the evchts of his life since his connection with that institution, pays the following complimeut to journeymen printers: "I Lave the happiness to number among my friends many printers, but though it may seem to imply either a lack of ability on the part of the minis- j ter, or the want of the qualities that are n. fers lry in order to appreciate good preaching, on the other jnirt , yet I will reveal the fact that I have never sue deeded well with that class. For the nine long years, and with all the induce ments offered, not one of that trade has connected himself with my congregation —and ldo not think a man could he found, of all who ever tenanted our prisou, who could set up a column of type. I leave tho reader to make his own comments, only remarking, that this cannot he accidental, nor can the evul: nation he that the employment keeps them ignorant of the prevailing vices and Immoralities, nor yet that young printers are removed from the large iua.-sc3 where corruptions engender and spread. Tn all these respects this class arc much exposed. It is evident, wc think, that the employment has an ele vating* tendency, and is favorable to in tellectual and morul improvement.” Oomplktei v Fold.— As the Oitrnnolle train was on its downward trip to Mo-1 bile, on the Ist of April, an incident oc curred that caused much amusement to the passengers. As the train was approach ing Bight 31 ile Station, a lady quite ele- 1 partly attired, with a lovely boquot of; wild flowers in bund, and face concealed ; from view by a handsome veil, was dis covered standing on tho platform. The train •, a? ordered to' stop, of co'tfrsc, to lake in the fair passenger—and stop it did. The gallant conductor immediately jumped out upon the platform and cried out, as usual, "all aboard!” at the same time raising his hat and politely extend ing Ins hauu to help the lady aboard.—■ She, however, did not rooognixe his gal lantry, but stood dumb and motionless as a statue. The astonished conductor ! advanced, involuntarily raised tho veil,! when, lu! instead of a face of female fles.i nr 1 beauty, the words “April Fool, inscribed,,,,* black "lightwood chunk, met his astonished vision. He started back, gave the signal to be off with an unusual violence, jumped aboard, 1 excbtimiijjr to the innocent engineer in a stentorian voioc, "Who the told you to stop here!” Remember always your end, and that lost time never returns | DISTRICT ADVERTISEMENTS.

I HPHE subscribers w ould call the attention of X the Farmers of Montgomery county to the above named article, and invite their attention to the analysis of Dr. W. S. Heksb, State in spector, as COLUMBIAN GUANO. The subscribers are now prepared to furnish Farmers with the above named article in any quantities they may requirt*. The Columbian is a new article, of recent discovery and impor tation, and seems to be just the thing our Farm ers have long wanted. From the analysis of Dr. W. L. Rekstc. Stat' Inspector, hereunto annexed, it is found to con tain largely more of Bone Phosphate of Lime. than any other Guano ever discovered. Almost every Fanner is convinced that in order to get Ids land in permanent productive order, phos phates are absolutely necessary. There cun be no permanency without it. As it seems to he impossible to supply the de mand for Rone Dust, Farmers need not, in our judgment, have the least hesitation in using the Columbian as a substitute for Bone, as it con tains nearly double as much phosphoric acid us the hone, and much cheaper in price, taking the phosphoric acid as a basis. We nsk a very careful examination of the analysis of Dr. Reese: Office of Inspector ok Guano, 1 No. 11 Exchange Building, Baltimore, j Analysis of an average sample of “Colum-J Linn Guano contained in package sent by ■ Adams k Co.’s Express from Washington, 11. j (’.. by Messrs.

Ourconvic tions are based upon having several of our own patients, confirmed consumptives, restored to ; vigorous health, after a few months treatment jby Dr. Rose. In the above named diseases, i the application of MEDICATED VAPORS, in haled directly into the lungs, may be justly considered asn great boon to suffering human ity, rendering Consumption a perfectly curable disease.
