Hollingworth, Clerk. P. T. Barnum's Art of Jloney Getting. Many persons knowingly violate the laws of nature against their better impulse, for the sake of fashion. For instance, there is one thing that noth ing living except a vile worm ever naturally loved, and that is tobacco ; yet how many persons there are who deliberately train an unnatural appe tite, . and overcome this implanted aversion for tobacco, to such a degree that they get to love it. They have got hold of a poisonous, filthy weed, or rather that takes a firm hold of them. Here are married men who run about spitting tobacco juice on the carpet and floors, and sometimes even upon their wives beside. They do not Kick their wives out of doors like drunken men, but their wives, I have no doubt, often wish they were outside of the house Another peril ous feature is that this artificial appe tite, like iealousy, -'grows by what it feeds on;'' when you eat that which is unnatural, a stronger appetite is crea ted for the hurtful thing than the natural desire for what i3 harmless. There is an old proverb which says that "habit i3 second nature," but an artificial habit is stronger than nature. Take for instance an old tobacco- stronger tnau ins love for any partic ular kind or food, lie can give up roait beef easier than give up the weed. Young lads regret that they are not men; they would like to go to bed boys and wake up men : and to ac complish this they copy the bad hab its of their seniors. Little Tommy and Johnny see their fathers or uncles smoke a pipe and they say, "If I could only do that I would be a man too ; uncle Jonn lias gone and lelt nis pipe of tobacco, Jet us try it." They take a match and light it, and then puff away. "We will learn to smoke : do you like it Johnny?" That lad dolefully replies: "Not very much ; it tastes bitter ;" by and by he grows pale, but he persists, and he soon of fers up a sacrifice on the alter of fash ion ' but the bovs stick to it and rer- severe until at lost they conquer their natural appetites and become tne vic tims of acquired tastes. I speak "by tne dook," ror l nave noticed its effects on myself, having gone so far as to smoke ten or fifteen cigars a day, aitnougn I nave not useu the weed during the last fourteen years, and never shall again. The more a man emoKes, tne more ne craves smoking ; the last cigar smoked simply excites the desire for another, and so on incessantly. Take the tobacco-chewer. in tne morning when he gets up, he puts a ouid in his mouth and keeps it there all day, never taking it out except to exchange it for a iresn one, or wnen he is going to eat ; oh ! yes, at inter vals during the day and evening, many achewertakes out the quid and holds it in his hand long enough to take a drink, and then pop it goes back again This simply proves that the appetite for rum is even stronger than that for tobacco. When the to bacco chewer goes to your country seat and you show him your grapery and fruit house and the beauties of a t XI TL your garden, wnen you oner aim some fresn, ripe iruit, anu say, "jty friend. I have got nere tne most de licious apples and pears and peaches and apricots; I have imported them from Spain, X ranee and ltaiy, just . a.l see tnose luscious grapes ; mere is nothing more delicious nor more healthy than ripe fruit, so help your self: I want to see you delight your self with these things; he will roll the dear quid under his tongue and answer, "iso, l tnanK you, i nave got tobacco in my mouth." His palate has become narcotized by the noxious weed, and he has lost, in agreat me as- urc. the delicate ana enviaoie taste for fruits. This shows what ex pensive, useless and injurious habits men win get into, x speas lrum ex perience. I have smoKed until l trembled like an aspen leaf, the blood rushed to my head, and I had a palpi- j tation of the heart which I thought was heart disease, till I wa3 almost killed with fright. When I consulted my physician, he said "break off to bacco using." I was not only injur ing my health and spending a great deal of money, but I was setting a bad example. I obeyed hi3 counsel. No young man In the world ever looked so beautiful," as he thought he did, be hind a fifteen cent cigar or a meers chaum! These remarks apply with ten-fold force to the use of intoxicating drinks. To make money, requires a clear brain. A man has got to see that two and two make four ; he must lay all his plans with reflection and fore thought, and closely examine all the details and the ins and outs of busi ness. As no man can succeed in busi ness unless he ha3 a brain to enable him to lay hi3 plans, and reason to guide him in their execution, so, no matter how bountiful a man may be blessed with intelligence, if the brain is muddled, and his judgment wraped by intoxicating drinks, it is impossible for him to carry on business success fully. How many good opportunities have passed, never to return, while a man was sipping a "social glass," Y0L.14. NO. 4. rtttr!ianat with his friend! How many foolish bar gains have been made under the influ ence of the 'nerVin,' which temporari ly makes its victim think he is rich. How many important chances have been put oil until to-morrow, and then forever, because the wine cup has thrown the system into a state of lassitude, neutralizing the energies so essential to success in business. Verily "wine Is a mocker." The use of in toxicating drinks as a beverage, is as much an infatuation, as Is the smo king of opium by the Chinese, and the former is quite as destructive to the success of the business man as the latter. It is an unmitigated evil, ut terly indefensible in the light of phi losophy, religion, or good sense. It is the parent of nearly every other evil in our country. Struggles and Tri umphs. ' BALLAD OF A B AliKIt. . JJT T. WILIiOmsXlBT. Joe Drown be was a baker man, ' A baker man was Joe; . He near was known to want for aught ; And yet he kneaded dough. And he was nursed, hearty, too. And had a ions life leased, . And all because lie rose up with His early rising yeast. To never cheat hla customers. This man was early taught; And yet his loaves were always light. His pie-crust rather short. And he was generons hearted, too, And kine unto the needy. And neat and tasty In bis dress, Although his cakes were seedy. With him none dared to bandy Jokes When e'ere he sought the marts, For well they knew his repartees Were sharper than his tarts. And while I say his skill was great In getting np a inultin. . . Ills pastry tills the months of all. And needs no further puffin. 'TIs said he was a temperance man ; If so, I can't tell why Ho mixed with wheat and corn meal, too, A trifle of the rye I WTien age at last o'ertook the man. His frame was bent and sore. And, like the enke he used to bake. His head was frosted o'er. And when he died all mourned his Iobs, Whlth no sectarian bias, A good man and a pie-ous. his epitaph. Beneath this crust of upheaved earth A well-bred baker lies; And like the rolls he used to mould. We hope, at last he'll rise. The November Elections. The general result of the November elections may be briefly stated as fol lows : In New York, ihe democratic ticket has been successful by a majority of about 7,000. In 1868, the same patty carried the State by 27,9-16 majority. The State Legislature la divided, In the Senate the democrats have two majority. In the House the Republi cans have four majority. The Repub licans have two majority on joint bal. lot. In West Virginia, the Republicans In Wisconsin, the Republicans have elected their State ticket by a majori ty ranging between 8,000 and 10,000, and caraied both branches of .the State Legislature, by decided majori ties. Minnesota elects a Republican Gov ernor, by about 4,000, and a Legislature Republican in both branches. Upon this Legislature will devolve the duty of electing a United States Senator in place of Daniel S. Norton, a Johnson lzed copperhead. In New Jersy the democrats have maintained their ascendency, by elect ing a Legislature of their sort. This State voted for Seymour, in 1868, and elected Theodore F. Randolph, (Dem ocrat) Governor over John I. Blain, (Republican), by a majority of 4,618. Old Massachusetts was divided and perplexed by three tickets in the late election the regular Republican with Governor Claflin at the head the reg ular democrat with John Quiney Adams as their leader and the anti License ticket, with Chamberlain, a Prohibitionist, at its head, But the Old Bay State never falters in the right herpeople go to school and all know how to read aye and to think too. The result shows a Republican majority of about 2-5,0000 for Governor with scarcely enough copperheads in the Legislature to swear by. Geo. M. Brook3, a sound Republican is elected to Congress by 3,50() majori ty in th 7th district to fill the place made vacant by the appointment of Geo. S. Boutwell as Secretary of the Treasury. This will do for Massachu setts this time. She will roll up 80, 000 on the right side whenever occa sion requires her verdict to be emphat ic. Kansas elects a Legislature emphat ically Republican in both branches. The Cops have carried Leavenworth and Atchinson counties by small ma jorities and perhaps two or three oth ers ; but the day ior resurection or border-ruffianism in Kansas will scarcely precede the final summons from Gagriers horn. Illinois, elected a Constitutionol Convention, and county and munici pal officers on Tuesday last. Local dissensions and divisions lost us sever al member in Northern Illinois three or four in Chicago but the Republi of Illinois are strong enough to main tain a pretty respectable fight among themselves, and yet beat the copper heads. In spite of our family quarrals the Hlinois Constitution is very largely Republican. Maryland "MyMaryland" has of course elected the copperhead ticket just as Kentucky would have done if she had votea on tne same aay. a State wherein soldiers were fired up on from behind trees and walls and stumps, and from all manner of con cealed and thereiore safe places as they rushed to the defense of an im periled country, cannot b? expected to range itself on the side of the party of human rights and universal freedom until the stock of 1861 has become ex tinct, and given plat e to the patriotic citizens. Of course Marv land elected the copperhead ticket. She voted for Seymour a year ago by a majority of 31,919. Such are the records tof he Novem ber elections. We are abundandantly satisfied with it.

Chicago, November, 1st, 1SC0., We are in more than ordinarily good spirits this morning generally, because the future 13 inviting, and particularly, because the cold, di' greeable weather of the past few wrr48 has given place to the balmy illan summer. The clerk of tbe "gather appears to have had a gru 83aIn8t us ever since last spr-1?; From ap pearance this morru'ig, however, ev erything is arrwcably settled and all things are lovely. our citrens, but TTne" pGCliif RcLi? ally. For several weeks past the newspapers have contained very little besides announcements for, and re ports of, election meetings, conversa tions in the hotels, offices, private residences and on the streets ars all concerning the elections of to-morrow. We are heartily sick of so large a doso of election and will be glad when the necessity for it is past, All through the month of Octobe the fires in the city were very nunie ous and destructive. I understan. that one Insurance Company, whlc has heretofore been very cautious, has lost 90 per cent, of premiums received in October. What are denominated "moral hazards" have been very plenty of late, notwithstanding the precautions taken against them. The latest news in Insurance circle3, is the attempt to form a Board of Un derwriters. The one that existed, here for a long time, was virtually dis solved several months ago. Since that time companies have been fixing their own rates and acting indepen dently of each other. The principal reason for the formation of another Board, i3 on account of the pressure brought to bear on agents of Eastern companies, by the managers of those companies. They feel safer if the bus iness is regulated by an organization of Underwriters. There is a ring of tho genuine met al about a really successful business man that cannot be mistaken. One of the most noticeable examples la tnicago, 01 mis ciass or men, is ira Holmes, Esq., Vice President of the Manufacturers' National Bank. Mr. Holmes, aa cashier of the Third Na tional, organized it in 1863, and left it second to but to one bank in tbe city, when he assumed the management of the Manufacturers' in January last. As an evidence of unprecedented suc cess, I will give a few figures from published statements: On the 4th of January last the Banks surplus was $30,000; individual deposits. $217,8.51; accounts or tne banks, bankers, etc., nothing ; and total resources $7.59,475. Now the surplus has reached 75.000: individual deposits, S90,C33; accounU of the banks and banker?, $81,538; and of National banks, $-5.5,083 and the total resources, $1,.579,433. This siaks volumes for the gentlemanl" bearing, life and spirit in the m'ulf. agement. Correspondents sb,, learn the Manufacturers' ter to bankers. The lurlsdiction of thA fh? t.
