Printing ink begets cynicism, as dampness does rheumatism, or foul air fo vers. Men in printing offices, whether they prepare or set copy, contract the disease aril suffer from it more or less, as their mental system respond? to, or resists it. They are behind the scene. They know that the golden crowns and goblets the public admire arj only pasteboard ; that the glitxring jewels are only colored glass ; that the crimson glory of the tableaux is but a flash of red fire ; tint the mouthing fellow who Lslavis i of his dukedom, is in arrears for his morning cocktail. Life is unidedized to them

from the outset. It is stripped

its illusions, and fine names arc but echoes of emptiness. Why expect them to admire ? Why ask them to be ambitious ? Why look for enthusiasmin them V The printer understands how reputations are made. lie knows that they are not blown forth from the trump of fame, but from the trump of Mm who seeks reputation by performing solo, and gtds it thereby.

A Ixuidon merchant, sojourning for a brief period jii this city, presented himself aj the desk of the paving teller of the bank with a draft for $4,500. The money was duly paid to him, and he stepped to a desk not far from t!ie door and begun to count it:. Kach bank note as he examined it he laid on the desk a little to the

A peanut-picker, wa; among the new, labor-saving machines exhibited at the Virginia State Fair. Hitherto tha nuts have been picked off the vines by hand ; four bushels a day was the fair average of a hand. A farmer who raised one thousand bushels, required tern hands for nearly two months, to save his crop, at a cost of fifteen cents a bushel. The crop raised on the south side of James River, between Petersburg and Norfolk, is estimated at one million bushels a year. To save this crop wDuld require the labor of six thousand hands, for two months, at a cost ;f 200,000. The new machine saves much time and labor.

A n old officer had lost an eye in the wars, and supplied it by a glass one which he always took out when he wont to bed. Being at an inn, he took out his eye and gave it to the simple minded servant girl who attended, desiring her to lay it oa the table. The maid afterward, still waiting and staring, "What are you waiting for ?" said the officer, "Only for the other eye, sir." As our intercourse with China becomes more extended, man' sing

We have already learned that they were familiar with the art of printing more than 800 years before the samo diseove?y was made in Europe.

A Night In a Japanese Hotel. As I was about to pass my first night in a Japanese bouse, I watched, anxiously the preparations for sleeping. These were simple enough, a mattress in the form of a very thick quilt, about seven feet long by four wide, was spread on the floor ; and over it was laid an ample robe, very long, and heavily padded, aud proviced with large sleeves. Having pu': on the night dress, the sleejier covers himself with another quilt, and sleeps, i. e., if he has some years' practice in the use of his ted. But the most remarkable feature about a -Japanese bed, is the pillow. This is a wooden box about . four inches high, eight iuchc long, aad two inches wide at the top. It has a cushion of folded papers oa the upper side to rest the neck on, for an elaborate manner of dressing the hair, does not permit tbe Jrpancse, especially the women, to press the

noad on the pillow. XiVery morning the uppermost paper is taken off from the cushion, exposing a clean s jrface without the expense of washi ig a pillow case. I passed the greater part of the night in learning how to poise my head in this novel manner; and when L fina dy closed my eyes, it was to dream that I was being slowly beheaded, and to awake at the crisis to find the pillow bottom side up, and my back resting on the sharp lower edge of the box. During my stay in the country I learned many of its customs, mastering the use of chopsticks, and accustoming my palate to fresh raw fish, but the attempt to balance my head on a two-inch pil ow, I gave up in despair, after trying in vain to secure

the box by tjing it on my neck and
