Moral, EelcstlGc. Xeteorcloglcal, j ana tuner Wiscom, ior js.a tnHugs' Almanac. Josh Billings' "Farmer's Ailwinax," we are assured cn tho tit!e-page, contains "all tbatiz necessary for an Allminax, and a good deal besides." It is, to all appearances a fac simile cf some of the ancientw eather-guides, substituting for the usual "feigns" such sa?e conclusions aa these: "January 5th, Perhaps rain, perhaps cot. January lOtb, 11th, Weather ehiftly;lay inyureice; 23th. John Smith bom for tho first time." This date settles a long disputed point in chronology, and is only a tythe of the information, aa well as the fun, we gleam from the pages of this jocose vade mecum, which, certainly, no farmer should be without. We select some cf the best specimens of its wit and wisdom, premising ti' it is issued by Carleton, in c style that must satisfy the public wel1 53 the author. Flattery iz like coae water, tew be smelt ov, not sallered. There is only oae good substitute for tho endearments of a sister, and that iz the endearments ov some other pheJtow's sister. Cheerful old girls are the brides' maids ov society. About the hardest thing a phellow kea do is tew spark two girJa at ODSt, acd preserve a good average. Old dorgs nus3 their grudges, but yuDgpurps file, and then frolick. A big nose is said to be a eighn ov genius if a man's genius lays in his nose, I should say tho sigbn was a good one. Medicine htz cost tho world more than bread haz, and haz killed more than it haz cured. Marriage tew a ccquette iz ofcen "letters ov marque and reprieal." It is very dimkult lor a poor man tew be superior tew his fortune, and more diffikult for a rich one. How mency people there iz whoso souls haDg in them, like the pith in a goose quill. If yu want a true friend, hire him by the month, and piy him fair wages. September MONOGRAPH. September iz named after "Septus," which thra3hcd out into Amcrikan, means seven. I wouldn't take 00 dollar for tho latin i know, and i don't kao much nuther. Sapt. is a lackadaiskal mouth, mellow az a bearding school miss, during her fust quarter in french. Natur makes her wiil this month hogs root violently birds hold convenshoons, and adjourn down South tree toads boost each other up trees and warble turn anthems katydids chew musick and spit it out freely, and bull frogs post their books. Advice tew Young SroRTSiiEN. In shooting at a deer that looks like a calf, always aim bo az tew miss if it iz a calf, and hit it if it iz a deer. In fishing for crab3 use yuro fingers for bait, yu kan feel them when they fust bite. J Don't fire at i bumble boo on the wiug. not till he settle??, then take good aim, and knock end ways. In bobbing for eels, us a raw po tato. yu mav not bac much eel, but yu can bag a bob, that yu kan hand down tew yure ancestors untarnished Ult of tho Hindoos. The so peopWore remark'iblv oaickwitted and are as keen in f heir implies aa as a Damascus blade. 1 remember once I asked a native, in the language of Job. can a clean thins come out of an unclean thing?" I had hardly finished the sentence before he replied: JJoes cot the lotus come from tho mud?" You must remember the lotus is tho most beautiful of all flowers. Here is another instance: A missionary was oneo preaching iu the streets, when a IJrahmin came up aud asked the preacher "if he might ask him a question?" Of course tho request was granted. Said the Brahmin: " Did you ever observe how the littlo monkey clings to the back of the old monkey, holding fast to its parent with all its little strength? Well, sir, you are that little monkey, and the big monkey you cling to is your God. Your faith holds you on. Now, 1 am liko a little kitten, who is perfectly helpless, but still the old cat takc3 it by the neck and carries it to a place of safety. So you sec that although Ihavo no faith, lam provided for." These Brahmins are natural orators. They have a wealth pf comparison, a facility of expression, and a treasure of illustration which is perfectly wonderful. Fearrul Folk. Fearful folk are always on the brink of ruin. They cannot wait to sea how things will turn before they despair, and they cannot hope for the best in a bad pass. They aro engulfed in abysses that never open, and they dio a thousand deaths before the supremo moment actually arrives. The smallest difficulties are to them like the straws placed crosswise, over which no witch could pass; beoificent action of time, cither as a healer of sorrow or a revealer of hidden mercies, is a word of comfort they cannot accept for themselves, how true toever it may be for others; the doctrine that chances are equal for good, as well as for bad is what they will not understand; and they know of no power that "can avert the disaster, which perhaps is simply a possibility not even probable, or which their own fears only have arranged. If they are professional men, having to make their way, they aro forever anticipating failure to-day and absolute destruction for to-morrow; and they bemoan the fata of the wife and children sure to be left to poverty by their ultimate decease, when the chances are ten to one in favor of the apportioned threescore and ten years. Life is a place of suffering here, and a place cf torment hereafter; yet they often wish to die, reversing Hamlet's decision by thinking the - mystery of unknown ills preferable to the reality of those they have on hand. Over such minds as these the vaticination of such a prophet as Dr. Cumming have a peculiar power ; and they accept his gloomy interpretations of the Apocalypse with a faith as unquestioning as that with which they accept the Gospels. They have a predilection indeed for all terrifying prophecies, and cast the horoscope of the earth and loretell the destruction of the universe with marvelous exactitude. Their minds are Bet to the trick of foreboding, and they live in the habit of fear, as others live in the habit of Lope, of resignation, or of careless good humor and indifference.. There is nothing to be done with them. Like drinking, or palsy, or a nervous headache, or a congenital deformity, tho habit i3 hopeless when once established; aud those who have begun by fear and . suspicion and foreboding, will live to - the end in the atmosphere they have treated lor themselves. Tho man or

vroirian frhosc mind h once haunted by tho nightly fear of a secreted burglar will go on looking for his heels so long a3 eyesight and the power of locomotion continue; and no failure in tho past Apocalyptic interpretation will shake tho believer's faith in those of which the time for fulfillment has not yet arrived. It is a trick which has rooted, a habit that ha3 grown by use into a formation; and there it must be left, as something beyond the power of reason to remedy or of experience to destroy.
