PLOW SHALLSTAND WHOLLY UPON IT MERITS!

And not upon mere theory. Let us briefly examine into some ot these ments and notice the points of superiority over rival plows . The first, most prominent and dis,_ting_uish'ingvfeature.is

This is not mere theory but incontrovertable, stubborn: fact. © Not only are the Mould-board, Landside, Standard and Points made upon strictly scientific principles; but the metal itself being Chilled admits of a higher polish than Cast Iron or ordinary Steel, and is so hard as to completely resist the action of the soil, hence the Mould-beard is not cut up with myriads of fing furrows or grooves,-(as in ordinary plows,) causing the dirt to“stick” and thus materially increasing the draft. The sloping landside, the peculiar construction of the point, and the “manner in which it fits up to the mould-board, also contribute largely to a light draft. 7" o . The second point of superiority is - | =’ 5 .

Taking a widé or narrow furrow at will, and by means of a slotted brace between handles changing from a two to a three-horse plow in a few moments time; also ‘g_a:dapting the plow . perfectly to the team are strong features which to be appreciated must be tried.

, GRADATIM. Heaven is not reached at a single bound, But we build the ladder by which we rise From the lovely earth to the vaunlted skies, Anda we mount to its sammit reund by ronnd <I count this thing to be gfahdly true: g That a noble deed is a step toward God,— ‘Lifting the sounl from the common clod - To a purer airand 8 broader view.

We rise by the things that are under feet; : By what we have mastered of good and gain; By the pride deposed and the passion slain, And the vanquished ills that we hourly meet.

We hope, we aspire. we resolve, we trust, . When the morning calls us to life and light, But our hearts grow weary, and, ere the night ©Our lives are trailing in the sordid dust. We Lope, we resolve, we aspire, we pray, And we think that we mount the air on wings Beyond the recall of sensual things, . While our feet still cling to the heavy clay.

Wings for the angels, but feet for men! I ‘We may borrow the wings to find the way— We may hope,and resolve,and aspire’and pray, But our feet mnst rise or we fall again. . Only in dreams is a ladder thrown ; ; From the weary earth to the sapphire walls; But the dreams depart, gnd the vision falls, And the sleeper wakes on his pillow of stone, Heaven is not reached at a single bound ; But we build the ladder bg which we rise From the lowly earth to the vaulted skies, - And we mount to its summit round by round.

EDUCATION OF WOMEN. Wt@? is it that -so few women pay so little attention to the cultivation of their minds ® "I think for them education is quite as necessary as it is for men. True, women are not generally expected to hold public offices, but if they were better educated’ many of them would be more eompetent than some of the men. They already hold offices of greater trust than men,.and upon their intelligence and virtue depend irfa great measure the welfare of saciety. - - K

~ The great Creator created the lower animals with knowledge and instinct sufficient to enable them to supply their ‘own wants. - But in creating human beings, He in His wistom saw pvjopér to create them, not only in His own image, but with the additional pleasure and satisfaction of a mind capable of being caltivated and educated. And in creating them male and female he endowed woman’with the samé faculties of mind that were given to the man, which implies, the same need of culfivation. And:how can she be a fit helpmeet for him:if her knowledge is not nearly or quite equal to his? She was made to be the fit companion for man; to share in his joys and sorrows, to be the mother of his children, to help to found a home and family, and to assist in making life not only pleasant and agreeable but-useful. And howmuch more capable and better qualified will she be for the performance of all these duties if she be well trained’ and educated.- Still, there are many men, who, in choosing a wife, do not seem to consider a liberal education, or a well cultivated mind, at all necessary to their interest or happiness; being captured probably by a pretty face or fine dress—charms which are not very lasting-—and- as they fade the husband’s love is pretty apt to grow cold, toe. A finely dressed doll 'may be pretty enough te look at, but as a companion -in solitude, a counsellor in time of need, or a friend and nurse in time of sickness, she would not be of much account.” When the mind, “the crown| of mortals,” is lacking, there is no other qualification that can atone for it. . At d ;

Some men in ‘providing- for' their children, while they are couvinced that it is necessary for their sons to have a tolerable’education, think, as T heard a man say once, “I can send my boys off to.school, but my girls do n’t need much schooling; there is no use in- women knowing more than to be able to read the Bible,” I think such A man must be a relative to the man who would not let his wife plant flowers in the dooryard; He must live in the basement of his house. I have known men of good business talents and well informed in political matters who did not think it worth while to acquaint their wives with their pecuniary affairs, and if asked for such information would tell their wives that it*was none of their business—because they considered a woman inferior to themselvessin knowledge. Had those Women been liberally educated and atténded properly to the .cultivation of their minds, they would not have beén put off in this way. They would have given their liege lord to understand that they had a right to know all about. that. whigh concerned their own' personal interest and welfare. And by self-culture they would increase their capabilities’and knowledge’ and “would *be more likely to retain the love and respect of their husbands. . v Ve

There are many women who do not - pick up a book or paper once a week to read, who in the daily routine of work and care of children allow themselves to fret and worry about things they cannot help, when if they would make it a rule to read, if only a few minutes, daily, the habit wonld serve "to divert their minds from' the petty s annoyances of life; they would have better and enlarged ideas of their own' 'duties and responsibilities, and by selecting useful and interesting reading matter and allowing the habit of reading to grow upon them, it would be;come, a source of recreation which: could be enjoyed when other recrea-’ tions wonld not Be'so convenient. It ~would afford food for: thought from’ ‘which the mind,woulgvgp._‘thei'gvtrglg%th; | and be more able to hear the innumerable cares and vexations which de~ volve upon women; ey ' The education of women should be of the best quality to fit them for teaching. They are the first and natural -educators of fouth.| The child’s first lessons are received from its haoth‘er'?isii‘ lips, and ?ﬁ&uﬁfé‘%&%uzztm cul-. tivation.of the mother’s mind and influence she will be likely to exert

over her children. If the time and money spent by many girls and young women for unnecessary dress were spent ‘in their 'educ:{ltion,- they would be far more useful and entertaining to those around them. They would make better wives and mothers. But some persons will say it is not necessary for a woman, especially. for a farmer’s wife to ;[Lve a good educar tion; that if she is Fapable of weighing out a pound of hutter or counting up the amount of a few dozen eggs, that is all that is needful; It does not require a very greal ameunt of book learning t 0 know l;ow to make good bread and bufter; neither would education unfit her for the duties of the kitchen or dining room, and with it she would not feel out of place in the pa‘,rl_i)'r'or her husband’s library, if he hasone. Then'if it should ever be her lot o be left.a widew with much property and a family to take care of, she will be more capable: of seeing to her own affairs; or if left with a family and forced to contend with poverty she will be better fitted to train, educate and provide ITQr her children by having properly .cultivated her own mind, e ; :

- I'said in:the beginning of this arti¢le that upon the intelligence and virtue of our women de}pended the welfare of society. I believe that much of the misery and disgrace which often falls to the lot of women is the result of ignorance. Many of these unfortunate women if they had been properly trained and educated might have been ornaments to society instead of leading a life of infamy. Lh I will close by quoting' the 11ath Psalm, which reads: “That our sons may be as plants grown up. in their youth; that our daughters may bec as cérner stones, polisli}ed after the similitude of a palace.” By a _ ~ gt PARMER'S WIFE |

Beecher’'s Gushing Testimony.

The Cincinnati Q‘a’zette, which has from the very commencement of the Brooklyn scandal suit leaned quite strongly to the Beecher side” of the controversy, is not ﬁavombly impressed with_ the testimony of the defendant. Inarecent issue the Gazette commented as follows: | - - ~ “Beecher groans, éushes, weeps and kisses in quick suqcession. He tells Tilvon of Moulton’s sickness, and kisses him. He-calls on Tilton and his wife, and Tilton talks about his broken fortunes, and tpefy all mingle tears and kisses. He ha‘lffgs on the ragged edge of despair, and he has glimpses of. relief by being called to come up hither, all upon what seemsa very slight provocation, | He bubbles over with anguish and remorse because he is made to believe that Mrs. Tilton’s affections have been turned so strongly to him a‘é"tO'de‘sm&’oy her husband’s peace of mind, and he assumes Tik ton’s business risks :}xnd family expefises as a partial reparation therefore; and then, when he thinks their domestic peace has be{en reconstructed, he gushes again in le‘{fters to Mrs. Tilton, beginning with a rhapsody of Scripture and of his own Jjoyful emotions. and asking her to write to him of her ‘true inwardness.’ * * * “Beecher had suffered ‘the torments of the damned’ because, as he believed, he had unwittiuﬁ"rlly alienated Mrs. ‘Tilton’s affections and destroyed the peace of that lousehold. He had placed his fortune at Tilton’s disposal in his anxiety fo repair-the injury.— He believed the work had been suecessful, and that the confidence and marital love of the Tiltons was restored. After all the agony and labor he wrote to Mrs. Til;ohi the above rhapsodical létter, which is like the alternations of despair and rapture a very enchanting lover might write to his mistress in telling of the effect of her frowns and smiles. Where was his dreary wilderness? Why should he talk of dying on the border of the promised land? Why should he have a dging despair_to which her hope is medicine? His agony had been that he had destroyed 'her conjugal affec‘tion. Why should he ask that, besides rebuilding at home, she should ‘cheer and sustain outside of it another who, lonely, needs help in heart and . spirit . Why was he lonely ?' He had < his wife and children, his congregation, his host of friends and admirers, *his literary labors, and his universal popularity. And why should he talk of thanks which only the emancipated - soul can give? Did he need emancipation from bonds here to ‘properly thank her for any thing she could be to him ?

We have to regard these people as living in a highly rarified atmosphere, and to construe their expres‘sions and acts by a st{a,ndzird different from that of mortalsl’ = = "~ -

THE NEW LIC? NSE LAW.

Opinion of Attorney-General: Bus- . ‘kirk on Certain Points, % LF In answer to certain inquiries touching the operation of the new liquor license law, Attorney-General Buskirk has furnished the following opin--101 : 2 § L %

DEAR Stß—Your letter. of the 30th ult. has been received. You request therein my opinion construing certain portions of the act to regulate the sale of intoxicating liquors, ete., approved March 17,1875 “ .

I have given the provisions of the act a rareful consideration, and have arrived at the following conclusions; - 1. That after the close of regular session‘in June next of tHe Board of County Commissioners of a county, it will be unlawful within such county for any person or persons, directly or indirectly, to sell, barter or give away for any purpose of gain, any spirituous, vinous or malt liquors in l¢ss quantities than a quart at a time, or sell or barter any intoxicating liquor to. be drank.or suffered.to be drank in his or their house, out-house, garden, or the appurtenances thereto belonging, without first procuring from the Board of County Commissioners of : such county alicense, as provided for in the act, having given twenty ‘Pays’ notice, ete. - f i 2. That the holder of a permit under what is popularly known as the “Baxter law,” after the |close of the session of the Board of county Commissioners in June next, can not lawfully sell, barter, or give away, for any purpose of gain, spirituous, vinous, or malt liquors, in less: quantities than a. quart at-a time, or sell or barter any intoxicating liquor, to be drank” or suffered to be drank in his house, outhouse, garden, or the appurtenances thereto belonging, unless he shall have procured a license under the act of March 17, 5., Respectfully, ete., - - - C. A. BUSKIRK, Att’y-Gen’l. A More Substantial Explanation kte- : quired. | o i [From the Springfield (Mass,) Republican.] - Mr. Beecher’s powers of denial are better than his powers of explanatior. Even in the friendly cross-examina-tion to which his own counsel are now subjecting him, with /the two-fold purpose of accustoming -the witness; to the ground and of taking off the edge from theé developments which! the opposing attorneys might be able te malke, there is a geneﬁl unsatisfactoriness in his' explanations. © Why" deny so steadtastly his gubstantial aathorship of the “apology,” when he refers to it subsequentlf ‘in letters as “My letter,” and now g}dmits_ that he had permitted it to so. regarded among. his friends? J(%Vhy humble himself so profoundly before Tilton as the better man, when, on -his own_ theory, he had just detected Tilton in_ a base attempt to ruin jhis own honor: by procuring a false confession from' Mrs. Tilton; charging him with seduction? On his own showing, he had done far ‘less to destroy the Tilton household than Tilton fxad done to destroy Beecher’s;, and | yet,;. ‘with the sense of both wrongs in his mind, as he now says, he wrote the apology and the subsequent letters—abusing himself to the limit of language to express and yet “wondering” to Moulton if “Elizabeth knows how generously Theodore has carried himself toward me,” and testifying to the fact that Tilton had shown himself “capable of the noblest things.” No elequence of manner nor trick of drama.can reconcile these recorded expressions of Mr. Beecher with his own theory, and a more substantial explanation is as yet looked for in'vain. ¢ | St

o e e, Effects of Tobacco Smolie.

M. Gustave Lebon, of Paris, has recently issued a treatise upon the Chemical and;PathOlogical Effects of Tobaceo Swoke upon the Human System, the author having first constructed a variety of apparat;}ls by which he has been enabled, he states, to collect and show with exactx‘i’ess the various elements of smoke which condense and deposit themselves on the organs of the smoker. One hundred grammes —1,300 grs., English troy—of French tobacco furnish 0,650 grs. of nicotine and 0,490 grs. of ammonia. Tobaccos of the Levant are the least dangerous, some of them possessing but a small trace of nicotine. .. In small doses, be says, tobacco smoke .instantangously excites cerebral activity and the intellectual forees, and fafcilitates digestion. In excessive and frequently repeated doses, it prdduceSe difficulty. of digestion, benumbed intelligence, and ¢louded memory.—M. Lebon, Medteal Press and Cireular, December 24, Doy ! :
