The Cincinnati Enquirer of Feb. 15th contained the following paragraph “A note from two or three constant readers requests us to republish the poem entitled ‘Beautiful Snow.’ We have no recollection of ever having published such a poem, and we doubt whether there is one in existence bearing that title. There must be a mistake. If any person now liv ing can put us on the track of ‘Beautiful Snow we will be obliged to them for so doing.” The next day the Enquirer contained the following: “There is a poem entitled ‘Beautiful Snow.’ We have reason to know it now it we never had before. W’e remember reading it some ten years ago. That must have been shortly after Messrs. Faxon, Watson. Ma jor Sigourney, Professor Ven able, Enos Heed, Dora Shaw and one or two other unfortunate persons whose names we can't recall now, turned it out upon the public. We always admired it, but, considering the number of people en gaged in its construction, it isn't such a rcinai kablc production However, in deference to public opinion, we have re ligiously published that poem every win ter, from that time to the present. In our editorial capacity we have incurred an expense of not less than one hundred dol lars for composition on that one piece of poetry alone, anil that is a great deal more than it cost to compose it originally. Hav ing, as we thought, supplied the demand, and placed at least a half dozen copies of that intensely popular versification in every household, we concluded to lay off this winter. But day before yesterday we received a request to publish it. It*was the same old request—couched in the same old, familiar language. We were a little exasperated, because a great many newspapers kept the poem standing at the head of the first column on the title page, and we knew there could he no ex traordinary demand for it. In order to escape we affected ignorance. We assert ed in a paragraph the next morning that we didn't believe there was any such bun dle of rhyme in existence. Alas, ilia: bit tt simulated skepticism Las cost us deal Iv! Early yesterday morning copies ot’ ‘Beautiful Snow’.began arm ing at the counting room. A number of young ladies called and li lt their scrap books, the first mail brought a basketful of letters, all enclosing copies of the old i favorite. Some were discolored by usage others were Iresh copies in manuscript— all accompanied with a request to return il not used. “I am astonished,” says one gentleman, “that you never came across this beautiful poem.” “I did not think,” says another, “there was an editor living I so stupid as not to know of ‘Beautiful Snow.’” At first wo thought it a good joke, and were highly delighted, but the ‘Beautiful Snow’ kept falling and the re frain of the letters began to be burdensome. When business men began to drop in last 1 night, bringing copies of old magazines i among whose dusky pages) lurked'the fu i gilive poem, and began to express their lack of confidence in a newspaper that had never heard of ‘Beautiful Snow,’ it became apparent that we had inflicted great injury upon the Enquirer. It was no use trying to make a jest of the thing, and so we apologised to all who called. The fall of “Beautiful Snow” continued late into the evening. It filled our waste basket, drifted upon our table, insinuated itself into the grate, and piled up in our private drawer until we began to despair ot ever being able to get out ot the room. At 11 o’clock last night we had enough of it to blockade the Pacific Kail road, and at twelve o’clock the office boy appeared with another armful ot the gen erous contributions, and we incontinently ki. ked him down stairs. 1 his was the condition of things at one o’clock this morning, and not more than halt the wards in the city had been heard from. Then there’s the entire Slate to hear Ironi yet, and we know what we will have to endure for tiie next forty-eight hours. We acknowledge that we have the worst of it, and are anxious to com promise. Sunday next we will publish ‘Beautiful Snow’ in all its pristine fulness. e are determined that this craving for ‘the poem so dear to the popular heart’ shall be stopped.” THOSE I31aclc I Si'illinntiiittts Are Belling rcry fast nt t KALER BROTHERS.

MAINE LEGISLATURE. —m—=—=--- Senate. Wedrmdat, Feb. 28. Senate met according m a ijou. unit-ut. Prayer was offered by Rsv. Ala. McCclly of llallowell. Papera from the House were disposed of in concurrence. On motion of Mr. Spaulding of Sagadahoc. Ordered, Thai the .louse concurring, tin two brarches of the legislature at 3 o’clock P. M. this day, proceed to the election of h Major General of the volunteer militia ot Maine, in the manner provided by chaptet 307 of the public laws of 18Gj. In offering this order Mr. Spauldino said, that tlie purpose of offering it whs to elect Ex Gov. Joshua E. Chatpberlain to the position of Maj. General; that* this was deemed necessary in connection with Gov. Chamber Iain's duties as President of llowdoin College As executive officer of that institution he ha* introduced the plan of giving the students at that college a military education, he has se cured the detail of a regular army officer as military iustructor, organized the students in to four military companies, and the move ment promises great success. Ilut to be en tirely successful it is necessary that the President of the College should have military rank and authority. No objections can be raised to this. It receives the unanimous ap proval of the Military Committee, Gov. Pcr ham and the Adjutant General. It will com plete the skeleton of a respectable military force in this State, which can readily be ex panded into a good division, with a distin guished and accomplished officer at its head.

The matter had been ail gone over with, and at this late day of the session the question ought not to be reopened and considered. Mr. Haoloce said the bill went through the Senate by default. He favored the amend ment. Mr. May favored the amendment. It was democratic to let the matter go before the people, three-folirths of whom are opposed to removal. It was sure evidence to his mind that the amendment ought to he adopted, as the lawyers are opposed to it. The debale was continued by Messrs. Me I.ellan, Hinks, May, Humphrey, and Phil brick.

Sail]) Jumuht Journal AUGUSTA. THURSDAY MORNING, Feb. 29, 1972. FOR PRESIDENT, ULYSSES H. GRANT or juinoiH. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, SCHUYLER COLFAX or iiitiuinii. Subject to the decision of the National Union Re publican Convention. THE MISSOURI CO WEST/OX. The republican convention in Missomi last week promises a re-union of the party in that State under the regular organiza tion. Judging by its proceedings we conclude that the following of Sehurz and Brown has mostly fallen off. The move ment which they led was stimulated by local questions, which cease to operate when national politices ate paramount. Very few of their followers probably sus pected that their bolt was for more than a temporary purpose, hence when it is dis closed that the object of Sehurz and Brown is a permanent alliance with the demo crats, the leaders are abandoned. ihe convention was the largest ever held in the State. Every county was re presented. The greatest harmony pre vailed. The principles of the republican party and tbe administration were en dorsed. What with this grand popular union demonstration in Missouri and the stripping of the mask from Schurz in the Senate, the liberals are suffering badly. Their experience will be like that of others who have attempted to lead republicans over to the enemy. If any man could have led the party away into strange paths, that man was William ft. Seward, but how miserably lie failed all know. Trumbull and Schurz will meet a similar fate. The Missouri Democrat, the leading republican paper of-the State, speaks of the convention as follows: If there were doubts before as to the unity and integrity of the republican party in Mis souri, the events of yesterday at Jefferson City must have dispelled them; if ttiere were those who feared on the one hand, or hoped on the other, that the treachery of a few liad produced the defection of many, they may turn to the record of yesterday’s Convention and learn how little there was ot cause for such fear or foundation for such hope. Speak ing for ourselves, we can say that although the measure of our expectations was great, the measure of their fulfillment is still great er. We dared not predict what lias come to pass we dared not look for a success so much greater than has ever before been wiinessed in ibis State, that it seems to have been heightened and intensified by the very circum stances which, to many, occasioned alarm and loreshaduwed discouragement. I'o say that the Convention was successful, in the ordinary acceptation of that word, is but to feebly express w luit ill! who witnessed it bo strongly feel. It was far more than successful; it was characterized by a dignity of action, a harmony of feeling and such a degree of en thusiasm as can be born only of the conscious ness of a great purpose, and the inspiration of a patriotic motive. It revived the scenes ot ten years ago, when the noblest cause that ever enlisted human effort found voice in the noblest thoughts that were ever erystulized in human speech. Such assemblages are not often convened, and when they come together they mark epochs in our political history, more valuable as forewarnings’ of the future than ns expressions of the present. Kepubli can success was as much achieved as predic ted in the Chicago Wigwam ot I860. The men who met together there had won the battle before they had yet sounded the call to arms. It is so as to Missouri, where as great a contest must he fought on a smaller field. A purpose so well announced and so grandly de termined is the sure forerunner oi the mighty deed itself. Victory so resolved upon is almost achieved. The proceedings of the Convention, which we print at great length elsewhere, will in terest the reader, in their detail as well as in their general purport. All conspire to the i same end—the recognition aud indorsement! of Kepublican principles for the purpose of good government in the State and in the Na tion. Kvery county ia the State was fully represented, making it, numerically, the largest convention ever held in Missouri. There was the fullest liberty of opinion, and so great was the unity of purpose, that at uo mint was th*re a discordant voice or a dis enting vote on a question of vital conse* pie nee. The deleg tes elected to the Philadelphia 'onvention are gentlemen of high standing in heir several communities, and most of them ive more than h local fame and reputation Ve doubt if any State will muster a d» lega ion of greater intelligence, of higher personal Vorth, or better fitted to n fleet the political pinions of the great party whose commis don they bear. I he platform is sound in every respect— •xpressive without being verbose, and full ol ruths which are all the more eloquent he musc they are so fittingly put forth. It will •e easy to learn from them that the Itcpuldi an party of Missouri is in hearty accord with he Kepublicnn parly of the nation; that it .eeognizes General Grant as its trusted lead er in the past, and looks forward to him as its .aithful standard-bearer in the near future. Mr. Greeley thinks there should he no tominating conventions in American ditics. hut that each voter should get up on election mornings and vote for that man whom he, without consulting anybody else, tonsiders most fit for the place in question. This is Utopian in its simplicity and will result in giving the bud men in the State, who will combine over night in spite of Mr. Greeley, the entire control of the offices to their heart’s content. Edmund Burke understood this nnd said: “When bad men conspire, the good must combine, else they will full an easy prey to the superior tactics of their oppo nents." You can as easily govern a free country without laws as without parties. It :s only when honest men unite with parties and do the legitimate party work to the ex clusion of self-seekers, that parties will be pure and efficient lor good, and true public opinion govern the country. liosion Transcript. Mr. Nast created much amusement by bis form of acceptance of Speaker Blaine’s invi tation to dinner, t )n the envelope he sketch ed the House of Representatives, with Mr. Blaine in the chair wielding the gavel. With in was a fat, easy-going, dinner-loving indi vidual, ludicrously resembling Nast himself, and beneath was written, “Accepts with pleasure.” Some pleasant variations of the usual dinner arrangements were observed about the table. Instead of a square, a round table was used, and instead of an immense central epergne and towering pyramid ot flowers, a low silver receptacle of exotics was used, around which, resting on the table, was a wreath of flowers. In Ibis way every guest could see every other guest, and the pleasure of all was greatly promoted thereby. Mr. Eben F. l’illsbury, a Democratic war horse (though not a war Democrat) from Maine, is stumping the Granite State for the Democracy. He performed the same service a few years ago to the great acceptance of the Republican party. His “best holt," in his own estimation, is the tarifl question, and the iniquities of our present system he is wont to illustrate to his hearers by the production ot a paper of coflee at the same time that they are assured the tar',II on the art cle doubles its cost. Inasmuch as Messrs. Barker ar.d Hibbard, Democratic M. C.'s, voted again-1 the repeal of the duty on coflee, it is doubtful whether the gentleman wi'.l repeat ibis little by-play durirg the present canvass.—/tosh n J n/rnai. Tenor fifteen years ago a public dinner was given to the members of the Legislature at Providence, and a Narrngansett preacher, called the “Regular Pacer," because in his prayers he had a habit of standing behind a chair, stepping backward and hitching it after him, was called on to ask a blessing. He stood up in his usual style and began a lengthy prayer. There was an open door be hind him, and he soon unwittingly backed in to an adjoining room, taking his chair along, when some or.e softly closed the door, and the hungry guests proceeded to dine, when the petition was finished at leisure by the abstracted minister.— Washington Star. The Missouri Democrat says: “Will the New Fork Tribune and the Chicago Tribune please bowl? Here is Carl Schurz's recent speech being scattered broadcast by the Na tional Democratic Committee under a variety of franks. Is this any abuse of the franking privilege? The Great Hair Puodlckr. Hair Oils Pomatums and Pomades have had their day. I They belong to the musty past. Nobody that understands the chemistry of the hair and the philosophy of its growth thinks of using them. Instead of clogging the pores of the scalp with thick onguents, and thus obstructing the in sensible perspiration which is essential to the health of the fibers, we now tone the surface ot tlie head witli an invigorating application which penetrates to the roots of the hair and stimulates them in the same way that the fer tilizing agents spread over the meadows stim ulate the grass roots and cause the blades to spring up in myriads, coating the earth with verdure. The invigorant best adapted to this purpose is Lyon’s Katiiaihon. It may well he called the fertilizer of the head. To the barren scalp it communicates the vegetative power. If the hnir is dropping out or becom ing dry und withered, it arrests the process of dilapidation or blight. The hair thickens and becomes glossy and flexible under its ge nial operation, and ns a dressing it is unup proached bv any preparation that has yet been laid on the toilet of Fashion. feb2C-teod&w.

J. Baker for defendants. We made an allusion last week to the Qua keress preacher, Sarah F. Smiley, who is now creating quite a sensation. She is now 42 years of age. Her lather is Daniel Smiley of Vassalhoro’, where Miss Smiley was born. She was educated mostly at the Quaker school in Providence, 11. I., was teacher of a select school for girls in Philadelphia for a number of years, nnd is a fine scholar. She left her class in Philadelphia to teach the blacks in Richmond, Va.; from thence she went pretty directly to England to preach. She has now returned home to this country, and her rcsi deace is in Baltimore. In her case, at least, she has settled the question whether women can preach. The Congregationalitt speaks of her as a second Elizabeth Fry, and a cler gyman of Brooklyn, who recently admitted Miss Smiley into his pulpit, writes to that pa per as follows: Her entrance into my pulpit, where she de livered a most solemn and heartinoving ad dress of forty minutes, made no little commo tion. The press are discussing the matter, and the Presbytery may nlso “review” the in novation. Now, I am as thoroughly opj osed to a female ministry in the Presbyterian and Congregational churches as I am opposed to the woman-suffrage nuisance and to free-lov ism; but I see no reason why ebnstian cour tety and fraternal sympathy with devout Or thodox Qiukerism slioiild not Warrant any in vitation to such a heaven-bluesed wtiininaa 5 nit F.

The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Maine Central Railroad Company was 1.ohh n at Wateriille yesterdav. It waes made ol the Belfast and M losehead Lake, the Andro-eoggin, and the Leeds and Farming ton railroads, were ratified. The directors organized by the choice of Biclmrd D. Bice, President; anson P. Morrill, Vice President; and Jusiah II. Drummond, Clerk. As th report of the Directors includes the opera tions of the Portland Kennebec, Somerset 6 Kennebec, Dexttr Newport, Belfast Moosehead Luke, Androscoggin Leeds, und Farmington Railroads, it is of more than or dinary interest. The directors say in their report that the corporation, after many strug gles, now stands before the people an institu tion complete in all its frame-work, and rap idly approaching completion in its details. It now forms a most important section of the great continental and inter-continental high way over which the nations pass. When the union was effected in May last between the M tine Central and the Portland A Kennebec, the name of the former was retained as more fully describing the character of the road. The working organizations of botli liave been fully merged, uniformity of gauge has been attained, the rolling stock has been reduced to a common standard, and the general con dition of the road lias been much improved. Since the last annual meeting a lease has been executed of the Belfast i Moosliead Lake Railroad, from Belfast to Burnham, for a term of fifty years, at $33,000 per year. In June a lease was made of the Androscoggin road for 999 years. This also includes an as signment of the unexpirtd term of the lease of the Leeds Farmington road. By this the company assumed liabiliti s which consti tute a yearly rental of $01,544, and paid $333.33 in cash, and agreed to transfer to the Androscoggin company 2,000 shares in the capital stock of the Maine Central. With the Leeds Farmington road, they have en tered into a contract assuming to pay interest upon the bonds of that company to the amount of $37,930 per year, and also to pro vide for the redemption of these bonds in 1891. The yearly payments under this con tract arc to be deducted front the rental to he paid for the Androscoggin road. The new system now consists of Maine Central,.110 miles.

The financial condition ot the road has been placed upon a solid basis by the act authorizing the issue of bonds. The report of the Treasurer gives in detail the result of the operations of the past year The number of miles run by engines is 934, 5»5, of which 418,026 were connected with passenger trains, 326,786 with freight, and 189,773 with miscellaneous trains. Total earnings, including leased roads, $1,56.6,210. 23, of which $696,913.68 were for passengers, $793,921.71 for freight, $70,000.80 tor mailt, express car use, £c., and §2,774.06 for rents and other miscellaneous items. The amount of ordinary operating expenses has been 81, 034,638.97. Paid out in expenses incident to change of gauge, permanent improvements and in damages occasioned principally by the run has been §1.19 34-100; or if wo include extraordinary expenses above referred to, 1.29 88-100. The w hole number of passengers transport ed has been 584,507, showing a combined travel of 20.932,399, one mile. The average distance travelled by each passanger was 36 miles the earnings from passengers per mile have been 81.66 7-10; the average price per mile for passengers is 3 1-3 cents. The whole number of tons of freight transported lias been 314,902.03 at an average of $2.52 per mile, or 3 8-10 cents per ton per mile. The painful accidents of the past year are alludgd to by the directors somewhat in de tail, and the promise made that every safe guard known to railroad science will bo put in requisition to avoid like calamities in the future. The relations with connecting roads are very satisfactory.

BY TELEUKABH TO THE Daily Kennebec Journal. Forty-Second ConffrcsK—Second Session. Washington, 28. Sknat k. At the expiration of the morning hour the Senate resumed the consideration of the res oltition to investigate the nllegt d sales ol arms to French agents Mr. S..inner then addressed the Senate He Mini that besides the unaccustomed inter est this utbate hail excited, I cannot tail to notice that it lias wandered far from an) original purpose of mine, and into fields which I have no desire to enter. I shall try to bring it hack to the re;.I issue which I hope to present without passion or prejudice, and here. mt. I declare w hat is the only rule of my lift*, that what I say to-day, there shall not he a single word which is not prompted l.y the love of truth, and a desire of justice. Hut I venture to ask you to remember t'tat there is something on this planet besides the Senate, or anv Senator; something besides any high officials; something higher than any political pariy. I mean the good name of the American people and the purity of the government, which must be saved from scandal. In this spirit and with this aspira tion I speak to-day. Look first at the cir cumstances which surround us. An aroused community in the Commercial Metropolis of the country has succeeded in overthrowing a corrupt ring. Tammany at lust lias been i overthrown, and here good democrats vied i with republicans. The country thriled with the victory and demanded that should be ex tended. Then came movements against aliases of the civil service, and especially in that another Tammany society—-the New York Custom House. After a debate pro tracted for days an investigation was ordered, and the newspapers have been since loaded with the odious details. Kverywhere tiiere is now a cry tor reform. That is the univer sal voice of the country fium New York to New Orleans. The resolution of the French Assembly showing that suspicions against American officials had arisen abroad, and asking that the result of the inquiry which it was a sunn d would be made should be communi cated to the French government, would alone be enough to justify the Senate in ordering an investigation. Hut with this cumulative and convincing testimony Irom six different sources, an investigation could not he re fused without setting a defiance the rules of decency and common sense. .Mr. Sumner in conclusion, discussed the charge that these sales of arms impaired the defensive rapacity of the country, and also what he called the money question. The question was then put on Mr. Trum bull's question to reconsider the vote by which Mr. Conkling’s amendment directing the committee to inquire whether any Amer ican Senator or citizen had held unauthor ized communication with any foreign govern ment or its agent, was adopted, and the mo tion was lost. Ttie republicans who voted to reconsider were Messrs. Ferry, Logan, Sprague, Trum bull and West. Mr. Harlan referred to the statement made by Mr. Seliurz irom the report of the chief of ordnance, that there were only 10,000 breach loading arms in the arsenal for issue. He said that it referred only to the arms of the pattern of lsfiti, and added that lie had re ceived tiiis morning from the Secretary 01 War, a statement allowing that there was in store in aggr ■cate, ."HiO.OOO arms exclusive ol those in the hands of troops. He then re plied brie fly to Mr. Sumner, lie called at tention to the Hu t that all the so-called evi dence introduced to justify the pending reso lution was of French origin, and sai I it con firmed the opinions expressed at the com mencement ot the debate that this whole pro ceeding had been instigated by a French agent, in the hope that it might it in some way serve the French interests. The Senate without action at half-past four adjourned. IIol SE. Mr. Ely of N. Y., offered a resolution of inquiry as to the detention of mails on the Pacific railroad. Referred. The House then proceeded to the business on the Speaker's table and passed a large number of minor bills including the Senate bill for the sale of barracks at Holton, Wis. The Senate bill to extend land to the State of W isconsin to complete a road from Lake St. Croix to Lake Superior was opposed by Mr. Holman as making virtually a new grant of land of 2.000,000 acres, the old grant having expired three or four years ago. Mr. Hazleton of Wis., stated the facts in the case and advocated the bill stating that it the grant was renewed the land would not revert to the government hut be gobbled up by the Noitltern Pacific railroad. Messrs. Banks, Husk, Eldridge and Beck also advocated the bill, the latter stating that in common with all the democrats of the Huuse hut six, lie had voted on a similar hill some sessions ago to extend the time of the Northern Pacific railroad. The previous qustion was seconded. Mr. Holman of Ind., moved to table the bill: negative d—Tfi to 0-. Mr. Holman asked unanimous e nser.t for further debate for an hour. Mr. Peters of Me., objected. Mr. Holman asked Mr. Husk who had charge ot the hill to let an amendment offered providing that tile grant be construed to ap ply to such lands only as enure to the benefit of the Northern Pacific Hailroa I, if tic act was not passed. Mr. Husk declined, and after several votes by yeas and nays on intermediate questions and dilatory motions, the Ilo is.' without reaching a final vote adjourned. News liom New York. Ni w Yerk, 28.

The Prliire of M ales Procession. The whole route, to anil from the Cathe dral, was seven miles in length, and (he pro- 1 cession was four hours in motion. The best estimates place the number ot spectators who witnessed its passage at 4,000,(H)U. There I were 11,000 troops, besides the London po lice force engaged in keeping the streets clear, that there might be no interruption or; accidents. The troops were commanded by the Karl of Lacan, ot the First Life Guards, Major General Sir Thomas McMahon, Major General the Prince Kdward of Saxe Weimar, and Major General Primrose, of the House- i hold Hrigadcs. Along the entire route strong fences of timber were erected, and behind these were double files of infantry and police, to keep the eager crowd from overthrowing the bar-j riers and obstructing the passage of the pro cession. At numerous points on the way were stationed bands of music, which played “God save the Queen” as the lioyal party came opposite them. Sight seers innumera ble flocked into London. All the city and out of town railways ran extra trains to ac-; commodate the crowds. Among the strangers who here might be j seen were officials lrom all quarters of the Kingdom, the Mayor of Dublin, Provost o Edinburgh, and many others more or less distinguished. Visitors ffom the neighbor ing States of Europe were hardly less num I erous, and for nearly a week past the streets along the procession's route—Pall Mall, Tra falgar rquare, Duucaunon street, the StranJ, Fleet stret^, I.iidgate Hill. St. Paul's cliurch yard, the Old Hailey, llolbom, Oxford road and Hyde Park—were rendered almost im passable by the crowds which thronged to view the inchoate preparations for this grand j thanksgiving.

Everywhere club houses, railway stations and all public buildings for the time became grand stands thronged with people and pro fusely decorated. .Many private boxes, hung with damask and lace, were erected on the sidewalks along the route, particularly in St. Paul’* Church yard. '1 he decorations, too, surpassed anything ever before known. Miles of distance were given out on contract to be ornamented at the expense ol the metropolis. Much also was done bv subscription and by private en terprise. Tite lamp posts we re painted in blue and gold. Venetian masts were planted at integrals of oO feet and joined by wires, whereon flags hung during the day and col ored lanterns in the evening.

At the crossing of Farrington street there was a splendid triumphal arch, the erection of which cost 4000 pounds. Another hardly less splendid spanned Oxford Jioad. Flags, festoons, tapestry and wreaths of every con cievnblc character were displayed front house tops and windows and across the streets. A perfect wilderness of scarlet, gold and blue cloth, gold fringe and other gorgeous decorations waved from balconies and porti coes, where gaily dressed men, women and children pressed to view the procession and clapped their hands, cheered, swung hand kerchiefs. scarfs and hats in the air as the royal carriages moved past. At Windsor three oxen were barbacued, and, with hogsheads of beer, feasted the poor of the neighborhood and the tenantry to several parishes.

gailg Jftflfitfiw Jfmmral IRITHF1I/SE88. Two country lads came at an early hour to a market town, and arranging their little stands, sat down to wait for custom ers. One was furnished with fruits and vegetables of the boy’s own raising, and the other with clams and fish. The mar ket hours passed along, and each little merchant saw his store steadily decreasing and an equivalent in silver biis shining in his little money cup. The last melon lay on Harry's stand, when a gentleman came by, and’ placing his hand upon it, said, ••’what a fine large melon! What do you ask for it, my boy?” “The melon is the last I have, sir; and though it looks very fair there is an un sound spot in it," said the boy turning it over. “So there is,” said the' man “I think 1 will not take it." “But,” he added, looking into the boy’s tine, open countenance, “is it not very unbusiness-like to point out the defects of goods to customers “It is better than being dishonest, sir," said the boy modestly. “You are right, little fellow; always remember that principle, and you will find l'avor with God, and man, also; I shall remember your little stand in the future. Are those clams fresh lie con tinued, turning to Ben Wilson’s stand. “Yes, sir; fresh this morning, I caught them myself," was the reply, and a pur chase being made, the gentleman went away. “Harry, what a fool yort were to show the gentleman that spot in the melon. Now you can take it home far your pains, or throw it away. How much wiser is he about those clams 1 caught yesterday? Sold them for the same as 1 did the fresh ones. He would never have looked at the melon until he had gone away.” “Ben, I would not tell a lie or act one either for twice what I have earned this morning. Besides, I shall be better off in the end, for 1 have gained a customer, and you have lost one.” And so it proved, for the next day the gentleman bought nearly all his fruits and vegetables of Harry, but never spent' another penny at the stand of his neigh bor. Thus the season passed the gentle man finding he could always buy a good article of Harry, constantly patronized him, and sometimes talked with him a Tew minutes about his future prospects. To become a merchant was Harry's great ambition, and when the winter came on, the gentleman, wanting a trusty boy for his warehouse, decided on giving the place to Harry. Steadily and surely he advanced in the confidence of his employ er, until, having passed through various posts of service, lie became an honored partner in the firm.—Journal of the Farm.
