THE SAVING BANK; -ORH07 TO BUY A HOUSE. I ... BT OLIVER OPTIC. '- - " - - I tell you. my dear, it is utterly im. possible! Save three hundred dollars a year out of my salary? . You don't understand it, said Charles Converse, to his young wife. ' Perhap3 I do " not, replied Mrs. Converse, but my opinion' is vtry decided. Women don't understand these things. You think my salary of eight hundred dollars a year a fortune. No each a thing, Charles. But eight hundred ' dollars a year, let me tell you, won't buy all. the world. I had no idea that it would, yet, if if you only had the habit of sating what you spend for things that you can do without, you would be able to build a house in a few years. ; Build a house? -, Yes, build a house, Charles. Well, that's a good one' The young man laughed heartily at tho idea too chimerical, too ab surd to be harbored for a moment. How much do you really supposo it cost us to live last year? Why, eight hundred dollars, of course. It took all my salary there is none of it left. , -The young wife amiled mischievously as she took from her work-table drawer a small account book. You do not know that I kept an account of all theso things, did you? ' No, how much was it? and Charles was a little disturbed by the cool way in which, his wife proceeded, to argue the question.. Four hundred and ninety-two dollars, answered Mrs. Converse. ' Oh, my dear,' you have not got half of it down. - , Yes I hare ererthing. My tailor's bill was sixty-five ddl- . . . . ,; .' ' ! I have it hero. ' ' 1 V Hat, tjoota and . .1 have them all. . Thedeaco you have! . : . When you bad an j new thing, you know I always asked what you gave for it. ' ': I know you did: but I will bet' five dollar I caa name a dozen thiags that you have not got down.. , Done! said the , lady with a laugh, as the took from her drawer a tivc dollar bill, and placed it oa the table. Charles Convene - "covered the mouey.' ; . ; , , ' , , Capital idea for you to bet agninst me with mj money I said he, good hu moredly. ' If " I loose I will do without .that new barege I am to have. ' Nay, my dear, I do not want you to do that. t , T v -'But go on. ' , Pew rent, ail dollar, said the husband promptly.' ' . ' . Hero it is, answered she pointing to the entry in the book. Try again. Season ticket on the railroad twenty. . ' ' I have it. " . Sawing tho wood. 1 Entered. . Charlea reflected a moment; the case began to look desperate. New lining for the cooking stove. ' Here, two dollars. . . Cleaning the dock. . One dollar here It is. : Mr, Converse began to look hopeless. ' '", ; My taxes. ' Well, I have not got that. : But that was tho only thing he could mention of these necessary, expenses, that was not found to be entered on hi wife' book. Still Mr. Converse was not satisfied.. Your figures can't be ccrrect, Mary, said he. ' Whatnot? My salary is all used up, nnd you can account for only four hundred and ninety-two dollars of it. You most explain the balance. II Why, Mary, I have not been extravagant. It is true, I buy a great many little things iu tho courso . of a year, but they, are hardly worth the mention. 'Ah! there' the mention. That is where the money goes to you may do pcod upon it. Nonsense! You women don't understand thcsQ thing. . . . Of courso we don't. . Well, then, your figures show that you don't. Where ha the three nun dred dollars none to, then?' ' I don't know, Charley. I haven't the least idea. I am sure I have got all tho items . down that came within my knowledge I am positive that you have brought home no article of . . . t any description mat nas not oven entered on the book I mean articles of food and clothing, and thing for the bouse. . ' ' Jmt look at it u moment. You don't mean to say that I havo Hpont three hundred dollars over and above our necessary ixpenscs? said Charley, a little warmly. , I don't meun to my anything about it, for I do not know udything about it. ' ' - Now. I think of ' it, there' my life insusance, havo you got that down" I have not. There is forty of three hundred. But it leaves two hundred aud hixty -eight dolUrs unaccounted for. Tt ufnuM luln a rrrftn lect money enough to build aftouse, even if tho whole of this sum was sav ed. Not a great while, Charles. You know mv father has Tromied to i'ive you tho land when you huvo the means to build a houwe upon it. It will bo a long while, laughed the nusoana. , ,

I Five or six years, perhaps, if vou

are prudent. Hasn't the president, of your Dans promiseu yon a tuousanu dollars next year? . -Yes. - Then you can certainly save four hundred dollars a year. There are a thousand things we want when my sal.try U raised; But we can do without them.' I suppose we can. , . Just look here, CharlesMrs. Converse took from her pocket a circular issued by the "Dollar Savingi Rank,' in which the accumulation of several small eums, deposited weekly and quarterly were .arranged in a table. - Fiftv dollars deposited every quarter will net in five years, 31,141,25! continned bbe, reading from the circular. Bah! added Mr. Converse. That sum would build k .very com fortable house, und when your salary a . I III is a thousand uouars a year you can save moro than fifty dollars a quarter. A Ovo cent institution, inn I it: an swered the young man. t , But he was much impressed by the reasoning of his wife, and in the course uf the evening he carefully read the circular of the' iSavinir Bank. Certainly he had every inducement for being saving and economical. He lived very cheaply in a small house belonging to hi3 father-in-law, lor which ho paid a mcro nominal rent. His wife's father waa a wealthy farmer, or rather had been a farmer bforo his domain was invaded by. the march ol improvement, and his pas ture and mowing lots laid out into house lots. As it was, he 6till, from the force of habit, improved a few acres kept a couple of cows, a henncry" and half a dozen pigs. . Charles Convcrso found this prox imity to the "old - folks nt home," rather satisfactory, in a pecuniary, an well as social pointer view, for his lar der was partly stocked from the farm; and, of course, no - occount was ever made of half a pig, a barrel of apples or potatoes, or a pair of chickens Milk and eggs were, ao much fresher and better irom "IVn," that of course he never desired to obtain them from another aource. They lived cheaply and lived in clo ver beaides. Charles never liked to talk about finnncinl matters . with Pa," because the worthy old gentle man UHcd to tell him how he lived on a hundred nnd fifty dollars a yar alter he was married thought ho had a fat sultry, and supposed, of course. ho saved four hundred dollars a year out of it and always Woundup by .t . t , a, i' " paying iiihi uu wouia give mm a handsome lot might take his pick of all he owned whenever' he got ready to build. . All these things rather worked upon Charles Converge." Ho hadn't saved a dollar, aid, what was more to be regretted, there was no present prospect that he. ever would do so. . The promised advance in his salary was alieady appropriated to sundry luxuries. ' Tho ide.t of taking Mary to to the opera, or a pleitsant trip to Niagara, nnd other amiabilities, had taken possession of him. ' v. ' " . ' But the reasoning of his wife had produced' a strong imrrension upon hid mind. She had , been brought . a .. .. m up in the strictest nauiu or economy. Her father, though rich, had an army of children, but they were nil wealthy in their their thrifty habits, " Charles read over und over again the circular of the leaving Bank in tho courso of tho eveninir; figured up the statistics, and wondered what had becomo of that two hundred and sixty ei;ht dollars. Before he went to bed he had matured a resolution, though he did not say a word to his wife about it. The next day Charlea Converse ree a, 1 aw a cetveda quarter a salary: and ,ius nrt step after receiving it was to viit the Dollar Savin? Bank, whore he dcoosited fifty dollars. But the one hundred and fifty which he bad 1- ft burned in his pockets. It was all ho had to carry him through tho ensuing three months. 'There were a dozen little things that hi wuntcd, and a dozen big ones, too, for that matter. Against tho latter he resolutely set his face, though in consideration of tuo fact that his salary would bo a thousand dollars it year afu.-r the next pay day, hu had it week before ma Jo up his mind to l.-tve them. Among other things hit cigar case waa empty, und he atrpped luto Lewis', ontifth Street, to huvo it replenished. Cigars were a great luxury in fact n necessity to him in his opinion. ' : . ' The gentlemanly proprietor of the establishment placed a box of tho fragrant rolls upon the counter. Something new, said he. Charles took a handfull und smelt them. , Best cigars in th? market, continued the vender. Tip-top, replied Charles, inhaling tho grateful odor. . How do you sell them? .-. ; Four cvnts a piece. Six of them were transferred to n case, a quarter thrown down, as it was not magnanimous to pick up a copper change, ho walked out of the store. Bnt then a little fellow inside of him seemed to say: Charles you can't aflord to Kuioke such cigars ni thoae; they will hardly last you two days. If you must anuk, buy a cheaper ciar than that. . You will not bo able to build your housu in ten year, at this rate. He did not pay much attention to the monitorial voice, however, and as ho passed along, he drank it sherry cobblt r himself, and paid for three friends, whom ho could not help asking to drink with him at, McCoy's. At nennet' a Chaiinllco Bouse was disposed of, und So to tho end of the chapter. It was only a ninepenco or a quarter at a time; and these sums'

were so ridiculously smalls that they'

never caused him a thought. The idea that they absorbed any. oonsider: ahle portion of his salary, nevor "occurred to him. He had always gratified his appetite or inclination in these trifling matters, as they seemed to him, and they had come to be regarded as necessities." Still Charles Converse has turned over a new leaf. He refrained from purchasing , a. great many articles which he had intended to get when he received his quarter' salary: and as he seated himself in tho . cars, he congratulated himself on the firmness with which he had carried out the resolutions of the previous evening. You are a little late, Charles, said Mary, when he reached his sunny littla cottage. . - I have been paying my quarter bills, replied he with a smile, ' Here they are, my sweet accountant. He threw the bills upon the table, and whiie she was cxtmining them, he tosed his bank book in her face. . What! exclaimed she in astonishment, as she saw the book. Fifly dollars. Yes. my dear female iniluence the influence of a wife, nnd tho husband playfully kissed her. I am convicted of sin, and converted, too, which is better still. I am resolved to be prudent, economical, saving, even parsimonius. , . I am glad to hear it. And tho house will be built in just five years, accordiag to the programme of the Saving Bank. As he poke he took from his pockets three of tho city evening papers. Not quite cured, Charles, said Mary, with a smile. . . What do you mean?, Journal, Chronicle and Dispatch two cents each, said Mary. You aic determined the publishers shall live. Why, Mary, you wouldn't have me do without a newspaper, would you? That would bo a depth of barbarism to wn!ch I never would descend, replied Charles, with a look of astonishment at tho interesting mentor. ; . Certainly not: but is not one paper a day Sufficient? That is but a trifle. The rain fulls in drops, bnt washes the whole earth. Four cents a diy, for a year, amounts to, about twelve dollars. Charles scratched his head.' It was a most astounding revelation to him. , . . You nr j right, Mary. One paper is enoult, :' J Charles cat his mipper but waa moody and abstracted. A new idea ! wa penetrating his brain, which he began to think had been rather muddy on financial affairs.

Mt, Everett and Bashpish Falls.. M. Editor: It is an epoch in one's life, to 6tand upon the summit of Mt, Everett. The weather on the morning of the 12th was propitious, and at a quarter past nine, we stood on the highest point of land in New England, (except Mt. Washington) enjoying as fair'a prospect of th3 world below, as generally falls the lot of niortsls. ' In our enthusiasm to reach the top we attended so little to the directions given us, that when we reached theJ base of the mountain we had lost all trace of the road, and too impatient to retrace our steps, and find the lost path, we determined to ascend the ac clivity before us. And up wo went, climbing almost perpendicular ledges of rock, and forcing our way through tangled masses of scrub oak and ivy, not without an occasional feeling like that which filled the breast of the brave Fitz Ame when he said: . "Of all my wild adventure piurt, ' Tlit tnad-cap chin will b my last." But toiling upward, and still upward, we soon arrived at the summit; and what a glorious panorama is spread out before us. The heavens were but partially clear: dense cloud were moving majestically along the tops of distant mountains, like cohorts marshalling for battle, or hanging suspended in mid-air, casting their dark shadows on the earth below. No pen or pencil can do adequate justice to the picture. ' - - " " . " The almost infinite extent of country over which tho eye can range with it varied scenery, the Ilousatonic slowly wending its way to the ocean, in a thousand serpentine windings, stretching far away to the north and south', hko a ribbon of light.' many a' beautiful lake lying embosomed in the the sunny vales, . and gleaming in tho sunny liht like a sheen of silver; the beautiful and compact villages filling up the valley; and the i ich alluvial goro of land lying west of the Taconie range; the farm house without number, tho rocky heads of lofty mountains at your ' feet, with clouds partly above, around, and below 'you all combined to form a most glorious picture. - Standing upou the summit of Mount Everett, we have a aeriea of the moat magnificent and glorious views that the eyo ever rested upon. It is worthy the toil, the labor, the day and its prirations and sufferings, for one to look at that glorious scene. ' " ' That r-ccne in all its. beauty and majesty became deeply impressed upon our mind; and it will remain there, h glorious picture.upon which "the tun will thine" in the dark vista of buried years, a green spot in memory, around which our thoughts will ' delight to cluster, and toi which wc can always recur with profit and pleasure. For who can gaze upon such magnificent and , glorious displays of the handiwork of nature's God, without becoming wiser or better? . We descended the mountains by the most frequently traveled route a path passable for pedestrians; down the deep north sidewhich CDnducts you to tho baso of the mountain. To this spot travelers can drivo in carriages, which they will certainly do if they consult their caso, and from which the ascent up to to tho mountain is comparatively easy. But if like the writer, they love to bo out on tho bounding sod, and to hear the echo of their tread on the f olid mountain rock, and to tee nature as she is, wild nnd rugged, they will pay but little attention to ease, or comfort, but ascend the mountains from a point they first reach, Impossible though it may appear. But wc are down the mountain nnd the substantial fat e of the thrifty farmer, has satisfied tho demands of an ttppetito made keen by mountain air and mountain exercise. . And now for Bashpish Falls. . We left our carriage about a' mile from tho fall and commenced our de scent. ' Tho path winds down an u! most precipitous hill, and through a grand old forest, that brings to mind a line old poem wc have 6omowhcrc lead: "I lore the brava old forest, ' ' That for conlurWs hath etood, And waived ll lofty branches, Urandly In the solitude." About halfway dowu the steep hill aide, while carefully picking our way among the loose stone that rill the path, wo caught tho first sound of tho waieritiii. Holling up from the üeep gorge replcto with a sense of beauty, full and aweet as the music of a many toned instrument, the voice of the wa ter swelled in our cars. In a few moments we were standing on tho verge of a precipice, descending down bundreus of feet, with the deep. a a. a ' dark gorge üelow. Around us was nature in her wildest aspect; through a gorge to tho west wa seen a land scape bounded by tho "blue Catfckills" of surpassing beauty. " Descending from tins point, wo passed through a garden attached to tue dwelling house at the Falls, and afiail bridge to the South side of tho stream, after clambering along on tho banks for a few rods, we camo to a lonely solitude, unbroken, save by tho muiio of' thc .... a . a. fallimr water., rrora the solitude a path conducted to the north of the gorge. It is difficult and dangerous, but the only way to the falls. A light hemlock slab, some twclvo feet in length is laid against the trunk of n couple of stunted trees growing out A .. .t ! irom the crevices oi me rocK. un this slab which lies directly under a shelving rock, wo wore compelled to pass. But by turning to tho rocky wall besido us, and clinging to the luiuiiz points oi me jeuirc. W0 passtu n safely. Descending a steep hank eventv-fivo or, a hundred fecU we found ourselves intbo most awe inspiring part of the wild and wonderful gorge. ,

' The solid walls of rock form almost an arch, and rise neatly two huudred feet above you. You are standing under what is called the "Look Off" rock, it is enough to make the strongest nerved man tremble, familiar ' thoah he may bo .with the wonderworkings of the Eternal, . The rocks form ft dismal curve abovej covered with the green moss of centuries, and dripping with waters, apparently ready to tumble down with their weight: the dismal and hollow sound of the rushingwaters, breaking down over its rock-bound bed the howling of tho wind around the lofty peaks of the the old cliffs, fills you with wonder, and you exclaim, ,"thrre it a God;" and these gigantic rocks are the playthings of Iiis hand a type of true power," whose going forth is as the centre and high as the eternal stars. With a soul filled with awe and wonder I gazed, and mused- in thnt wild spot on that power which keeps our universe of spheres whirling silently and with inconceivable rapidity through tho great pulses of the infinitude. . , ' . Heaven hushed as with intense thought with greater worlds than our own, drifting through the noiseless deep, is a nobler type of true power, than all the thunders that hare made our low sky quiver with their groans. Let man visit tho wild and grand in nature and he will begin those thought on which in silent growth, the strenth of the soul is gathered, and the wisdom which is strength. Returning again to the "Look Off," we took one last, long look at that scene of sublimity and wonder, and though a gay, laughing company, we stood silently contemplating a soene which which whispered only of the eternal, . . ' Who bnsped the waUn fat above - The loftiest mountain!.

Stltct '2lbctlhim. . Prohibition iu New York. After three years of struggle, we have at length a Prohibitory Liquor Law in our State. It has been operative for nearly four months past or would have been but for the conspiracy of Mayors, . Judges, District Attorneys, kc., to embarrass its execution and nullify its provisions. This conspiracy has paralyzed it in this city and to some extent in other portions of the State, so that but a fraction of its natural good effects have yet been realized. Still, at least these benefits are obvious to the careful observer: ; . . - ,1. Wa are freed from the evil, the reproach and shame of our License system. ' Men still sell liquo as a beverage; but they do it in defiance of the statute in defiance of the best exertions of the Legislature and Governor. They do it knowing that their business is condemned by public sentiment, and . that the best portion of the community most emphatically reprobate it. They do it knowing that justice is on- their track, and with a shivering consciousness that.it will surely overtake them. They do it saying that the Prohibitory Law is inoperative, unconstitutional and unsustained by public sentiment; but their acts give the lie . to their words. If.' the act is inoperative, why do they work ao hard for St repeal? If it is unconstitutional, why wish it repealed? An unconstitutional act is dead-powerless slill-born; you might as sensibly repeal last Winter. Their exertions to overthrow it, proves it both constitutional and operative, even in their own estimation. And while they eay it la uneustained by public sentiment, who ever heard them propose to submit tho question, of its continuance or overthrow to a . direct popular rote? . . II. Men who sell Liquor are now obligf d to know well with whom they deal, 'and take care that they secure their pay. Tho law has done collecting their debts or enforcing their contracts. And this circumstance of itself tends io drive men of substance out of the business and seriously cripple and . resist the wholesale Liquor Traffic II Iv Tho whole Traffic m Intoxicating Beverages, except in a few rumridden localities, is under - bonds for good behavior. The taverns and "wet groceries," which were formerly scenes of daily riots and dens of profane ribraldry, now sell liquor, if at all, with great secrecy and circumspection. It won't do to have them surrounded day and night by all the "on of Belial'.', in the township, as they formerly were with impunity. The keeper puts his liquor down cellar, behind a closo partition, or in soma sort of a coal-hole, and tell his thirsty customers that they must drink and go quietly away, o. he will have to stop selling. . Thus time is eared, quarrels prevented, and the evil consequences of tippling greatly diminished. ' IV. Drunkardi obtain - liquor far less freely and, frequently thsn they formerly did. . Even tho rum-seller admit that more should not bo sold to man who' has "had , enough" thus doubling on their track and repudi ting their favorite idea of, "Moral Suasion." . Not even Judge Brown has ventured to prononuce invalid so much of the act a forbid and punishes tales of Liquor to drunkards. The consequences are peace, competence and comparativecomfort in many famlies hitherto cursed through drunken nesr with phrenxy, destitution and despair. . - V.'.

An experienced agriculturalist informs us that about six years ago be applied slaked lime to potatoes that were part- . jr.? it . i . i iy rotten, ana it immeataieiy arrested the decay. Potatoes that were partly rotten when the lime was applied, re mained as they were, tho progress of the rot being stopped, while tho potatoes to which tbo limohad not been applied continued to rot, aud were lost. , Since then he ha made it a con slant practice to apply slaked lime to his potatoes as ho lakes them . up. He puts a thin layer of lime upon the floor where the potatoes arc to'bo laid, and sprinkles some of it over the potatoes about every ten inches as they are put down. He considers this as perfectly protecting them from rotting, as he has never had a rotten potato since he has practiced it ; and he believes that potatoes thm used aro rendered some better by the action of the lime.
