Stocks. ‘ The creation of national debts is not a modern improvement, but the ability of a great nation to provide for a great debt, and to make it the most convenient and best form of personal property, is a mod ern- wonder. The debt of Great Britain was begun -by raising a million sterling by loan in 1692, and when her great contest with Louis XIV. was terminated, the debt had* reached fifty millions. Many states men and economists were then alarmed at the great burden which had been imposed upon the industry of the country, but when the war of the Austrian succession had swelled this amount to eighty millions, Ma caulay says that historians and orators pro nounced the case to be desperate. But fthen war again broke out, and the nation al debt was rapidly carried up to one hun dred and forty millions, men’s theory and business both pronounced that the fatal day , had certainly arrived. David Hnme said that, although, by taxing its energies to the utmost, the country might possibly live through it, the experiment must never be repeated,—even a small increase might be 1 fatal. Grauville said the nation must sink under it unless some portion of the load was borne by the American Colonies, and the attempt to impose this load produced the war df the revolution, and, instead of added another hundred mil lions to the burden. Again, says Macaulay, was England given over, but again she was more prosperous than ever before. But when at the close of her Napoleonic wars in 1816, this debt had been swelled np to the enormous sum of over eight hundred mil lions sterling, or four thousand three hun dred million dollars, or nearly one half the entire property of the United Kingdom, the stoutest hearty the firmest believer in national progress and national develop ment, might well have been appalled. But in the very face ef this mountain of obliga [ tion, —to say nothing of her vast colonial possessions,—r-the property of the British nation has been more than trebled, and her debt is now a charge of but 12 1-2 percent, against it. All that Great Britain has done in paying her debt, we shall do, and more, with ours. have vast territo ries untouched by the plow, mines of all I precious metals of which wo have hardly opened the doors, a population full of life, . energy, enterprise, and industry, and the - accumulated wealth of money and labor of the old countries pouring into the lap of our giant and ever-to-be-united republic.— During the fircest and most exhausting of i all possible wars we have demonstrated our national strength—and all tho world over, national strength is but another name for national credit. “As good as U. S. Stocks ” will soon be synonymous the world over With “ as good as British Consols.”— For our part, we think a U. S. Treasury note, bearing seven and three-tenths an , Dual interest, is just as much better than r British Consols as the rate of interest is higher. Some of our timid brethren, who • shipped their gold to London and invest | ed in consols, are now glad to sell out and invest at home at a round loss, —and servos them right, - , Farm Work in Virginia.— The Richmond Re public says that in all parts of Virginia the re turned soldiers are busy in cultivating the ground. Matty of the ladies on farms on the eastern por tion‘6f the State, from which all the slaves have gqpe during the war, and where other labor could not be procured, have engaged with alac rity in the lighter duties of agriculture. Three young ladies of one of the most refined and for merly wealthiest families in Hanover, have plan ted on their father's farm a larger crop of corn has been grown there during the war.— Letters from the fertile Shenandoah Valley and Piedmont region, however, state (Hat the far mers kre entirely destitute of seed and animals, > wit|) which to cultivate their lands, and great 1 suffering is likely to follow. : £9*Quilp, when requested to take time by Gie forelock, expressed a doubt whether 1 the old fellow had any hair left to take t hold of. The Work of Different Countries. An English journal of a late date has the following: “Industry has many carious local attach ments, and clings with feline fondness to particular spots. Thus, watches are made cheaply in Switzerland, whore the men and women of fifty villages together are all bu sy an toothed wheels, mainsprings, and jeweled boles. Soap and cheap perfumes, nasty as well as cheap, are best compound- j ed in central Germany. The Tyrol and the Black Forest have three resources for the ; long winter evenings, when the soil is fro zen stiff, and the snow is heavy on the pine boughs—clocks, straw hats, and toys. All over Middle Europe you see the Black For- , est clocks, made by peasants round the i cottage hearth, as plentiful as Mr. Samuel | Slick’s lacquered time pieces in Canada.— , Baden competes with Italy in straw-plait ing ; while for toys, old Deutschland bears , the bell. : ■ • “It is a curious thing that the tpys which English children love so dearly, aud which they break, maltreat, and demolish so viva ciously, should all be foreign. Here and there, perhaps, a rocking-horse, or a straight legged spot ted steed with his harness nailed to his body, may be the work of an Eng lish artisan, but not often. “The wooden boasts and birds in tbe zoo logical collections, the puzzles, the bricks, the gandily-dresSed Turks aud hussars!, squeaking lambs, and creaking cards, come from Germany - so do marbles, Dutch dolls, and baby-houses. Paris gives us the superb waxen doll, in her satin and span gles. America sends over the gutta-per cha ugliness and clock-work mice. “Quite two-thirds of the overshoes that keep feet from wet bear the French or American eagle boastfully embossed upon their soles. On the other hand, England sell's India-rubber tubing, water-proof cloth, and gutta-percha in fifty forms to Conti nental nations. TheVrench buy more of ouc-brandy than we do of theirs—an ex change of which we wish them joy ; while our silks contiuno the cheapest, aud theirs the richest and most tasteful. In all that relates to calico they own our merit; they prefer our broadcloth to their own, but de* clare, and justly, the superiority of their scarlet-dyed woollens to ours. As for boots, they are cut out by millions of pairs in France, sent to England to bo closed, re turned for the operation of ‘cliching,’ and re-exported as of pure Paris make. “Tho Americans have great aptitude for the manufacture of small, delicate, labor saving machines. It has always 1 been an object with them to get through their work with as few hands as possible, and we owe to them all manner of dainty devices for economizing manuel power. London is full of elegant little complications of steel rods no bigger than a wine bottle, devised for stitching all stitchable materials, for punching, drilling, and catting; for metal lurgy, and agriculture. Our own machine ry is commonly of a grand and solid char acter-great massive engines that are to be ' found at work all over the world pumping water out of mines in the Andes, lashing the waves of far-off oceans into foam, crush ing in, Victoria, and dragging burdens in Brazil. “We cannot, perhaps, quite beat Prague in turning out stained glass and colored services glowing with the deep pure tints of enormous rubies, emeralds, and topazes 5 nor are our tubes and alembics so fit to go through fire as the Bohemian. The old ware of China, the old Japanese jars, the finest French and German porcelain, have a fragile beauty beyond our imitations.— But our potteries only need the ‘open se same’of free trade to set their good and cheap products—plates that can bear heat, glass fairly cut into sharp facets, and vases modeled on choice shapes from Greece and Etruria—on every middle class table abroad. French housewives who store away their preserves "in jars coated with poisonous white lead, and dare not heat the plates lest they 6hobld fly into fragments, and whose clumsy coffee enps are an inch thick, are not slow to appreciate the mer its of Mr. Gladstone’s treaty of commerce.” —Scientific American. The Judge and his Demijohn. A good joke is told of a Judge in New Hampshire. He always kept a demijohn of good Jamaica in his private office for bis particular friends. The Judge had no ticed for some time that ou Monday mor ning his Jamaca was considerably lighter than he bad left it on Saturday night.— Another fact had established itself in his mind. His son Sam was missing from the parental pew in church ou Sundays. On Sunday afternoon Sam came ip and went up stairs very heavy, when the Judge put the question pointedly to him : “ Sam, where have you been ?” “ To church, sir,” was the prompt reply. “ What church, Sam?” “ Second Methodist, sir.” “ Had a good sermon, Sam ?” “Very powerful sir; it quite stagger ed me." “ Ah! I see,” said the Judge, “ quite powerful J quite powerful!” The next Sunday the son came home rather earlier than usual, and apparently not so much “ updef the weather.” His father hailed him with, “ Well, Sam, been to the iV, Second Methodist ” again to day ?.” ' i “ Yes, sir.” “ Good sermon, my boy ?” “ Fact Was, father, that I’couldn’t get in ; the church was shut up, and a ticket ou the door.” “ Sorry, Sam; keep going you may get good by it yet.” Sara says that on going to the office for his usual refreshment, fie found the “John” empty and bearing the following lable : “ there will be no service here to day ; the ohnrch is temporarily closed.” DpiS'i ,gkt Married.—Had not J. D. been encumbered with a large wife aud family—we mean a wife and large family, he could easily have made his escape, Lessons Should be Short. Long lessons are unfavorable to realpro greßS in study. I watched dally foi many weeks the course pursued in some of the best gymnasia in Germany. Nothing was more surprising, at first, than tbe shortness of tho lessons. All through tfie early""part of every courtsc of the daily task seemed to be almost ridiculously Short.— Yet I soon became convinced that thhse short tasks were better than longer ones. In the first place, the short lesson was per fectly learned; everything about every word. In language, for example, the pupil was ready to give every required rooQd and tense, number and person, every new noun and adjective in every required case in both numbers. Then the words of today’s lesson were combined with those of yester day’s, and those ofevery previous day’s. Sen tences innumerable were made, 80 that the exercise became a review of* evisi'y thing previously studied. Then the thought of the lesson became a subject of conversa tion, and ingenious things were said. By these processes the substance of tho day’s lessons was incorporated with the previ ous furniture of the mind; just as, in scien tific road-making, the new metal, as it is called, when skilfully applied in sufficient small quantities, and in a moist season, becomes speedily incorporated with the m&torial of the old road bed, and foriiis a substantial and permanent foundation For a gflod way. Every new lesson thus became an occa sion for observation and inquiry, and for new and pleasant thought. The teacher knows that the progress of 2) .pupil is not measured by the ground traveled over,; but from the number of clear thoughts perfectly mastered and combined with pre vious attainments, so as to form part of the permanent furniture of the mind. Exact ness and thoroughness are the essential things; and these are possible only with easy lessons quickly and joyously learned and made a part of the mind’s stock by fre quent and thoughtful reviews.—il/assac/tus setts Teacher. Prevalent Mistakes.

It is a mistake to suppose that it is an easy thing to please everybody. It is a mistake to suppose that,a paper is not worth buying which contains only what we know and believe already.... It is a mistake to suppose ibat money due for a paper would be as good to ns a year hence as it is now. ! • : ‘ It is a mistake to believe that we would •not be thankful for what is duo us and for new subscribers.
