THE HERAE). v r gRLGHMOND HILL, AUG. 4, 1876. 5â€"? , 4'4 .HAGGLERS' PARLIAMEN T.” Abovezis the caption of the leading article in the Globe of the ‘22nd of July. In addition to its malvcrsation on the question of frotection, it now boldly states that any man holding an opinion in favor of the above subject is not mor- ally fit to occupy a seat in the Legisla- »tion of the country, from the fact that being selfish he is the subject of bribery and corruption, and the sole.object of the protectionist is a game of grab, which would constitute a haggler’s Parliament, and, as a consequence, all and sundry having any interest in the following in- dustries of the country (must stand aside in favor of free trade) : Millers, salt, coal, icon and steel, hardware, woolen, cotton, shipping, sugar, saw, leather, im- plements, foundry, etc. While none of the above trades and callings may claim ,a seat, we are glad to notice there is one industry not enumerated that may fairly .claim a representation in the Council of the nation, the “ Agricultural Interest," and if We mistake not the signs of the times there will be more farmers occupy- ing seats in the immediate future, than at present, in the House. of Commons. According to the Globe’s way of think- ing no protectionist can be a patriot or is true lover of his country, but what will it say of the late Horace Greeley, of the United States, who did more than - a tow rds inau uralin the present “protectivcwolicy c that country. ‘ from the opposition of the Mail and the Millagihh-Globe editors are having their hands full of work, seeing that two members from the dusty fraternity were elected .iu .the Ontarios and nearly a ,third in South Wellington. The people, ,We areiuclined to think, from their late ,nction,,sre not in accord With the free- ,trade miter of ihe Globe. 1’] 0.1871 G S . a. Picnics of a political kind seem to be cropping up more and more every day, ,nnd we are glad to see that the leaders of the Liberal Conservative party are, through this means, making themselves more acquainted with the great body of .tbe people. The time was when the gen- tlemen who now occupy the benches of the Treasury at Ottawa, thought it not beneath them to attend these kind of gatherings all over the country ; but mowâ€"it may beâ€"they think they are in a pOSition to dispense with them]. ,On the 27th of last month, a magnificent gathering of the Liberal Conservatives of the County of Northumbcrland was bold in a beautiful grove ,to the north of the village of Colborne, at which it isos- present. The proceedings were enliv- cncd by the band of the 40th Batallion. After an address was presented to (S'urJohn Macdonald, to which he made a suitable reply, Mr. G. Cochranc was called to the chair, when speeches were made by W. H. Gibbs, W. H. Scott, lion. Wm. Macdougal, Sir John Mac ,donald and others. The whole affair seems to have given satisfaction to the vast crowd that assembled, and cannot ,but tend to have its client upon the minds of those who listened to the sev- cral speakeis who addressed ,them. When will the Liberal Conservatives of the West Riding of York have pluck ,enough to get up a similar turn-out ? ‘ sundry complaints received from our subscribers from different parts of the county, upon the non-receipt, in good _time, of 1 the papers that are published ,at this ofiicebu Friday of each week; ,more especially is this the case from those whose papers Ihavc first to go to 'l‘oroiito to be distributed. 'Wc presume the gentlemen who have the handling of . ,themails in the Head Office imagine it ,is notofmuch consequence what delay timated some seven thousand people were are finder our comm: I ,We have already called attention to; is put on a. country weekly; if such is their opinion, we begto assure them lhcy never. made a bigger mistake in their lives. If our subscribers do not, after this, receive their paper in time, or do not receive them at all, will take the trouble to drop us a postal card or letter stating such to be the case, they will greatly oblige, as we are determined, if possible, to find out where the wrong lies, not only to ourselves but to the public. A late Shefiield paper writing upon the state of trade, holds out no hopes of the prospects of trade improving, neither the bountiful harvest of last year nor the considerable reductions which have taken place in prices have had any con- siderable effect in stimulating the de- mand for goods. It is of opinion that it is futile to look for a revival of trade until prices, wages, and the cost of pro- duction generally, have sunk to a much lower level than they have yet reached. The English iron trade is very dull, and though ironmasters are making very small profits, and .in some cases losing money, it. Is impossible to keep up prices. Local barriron of common quality is quoted as low as £7, 55, per ton. The armour plate mills are, however, Well employed, turning out very large plates, and there is a good demund for gun-barrels. The war branches being the only departments of the heavy trade in. which there is any activity. Ship building is quiet, both on the Tyne and Clyde. The saw and edge tool trades, the joiners' tool makers, the Britannia metal and plating, and other branches of trade are all very dull and not much doing. After a strike of four months, the scissor forgers, like the smiths, have re- sumed work at the old rate of wages. He that will believe only what he can fully comprehend must have a very long head, or a very short creed. Many gain a false credit for liberality of sentiment in Icligious matters, not from any tender- ness they may have for the opinions or consciences of of other men, but be- cause they happen to have no opinion of their own. The Hon. Mr, Laird is one of the talent men in Canada, be is nearly seven feet high ; that is seven ordinary feet-â€" he is not more than four of Brown’s. Strat/‘ord Harald. Despotism can no more exist in a nation until the liberty of press be de- stroyed, than night can happen before the sun is set. gigolmlmml. if Timothy seed has been and still is very scarce and high. A crop of timothy that could not be out early enough for hay had better be left for seed. Cut it with a reaper and bind it into sheav- es. Killing weeds is one of the most im- portantlabors on the farm, at this season. None should be sufi'ercd to go to seed, if it can be avoided without too great expense. At anyrate, not a weed should he suffered in corn, potatoes, and other hoed crops. Summer fellows for wheat are apt to be neglected this month. A good ploughing or cultivating during this dry, hot weather, will kill every weed that has germinated. Heavy,cloddy land that can be reduced and pulverized when com- pletely dry, will not forget it for years. The sickness and death of stock con- stitutes one of the greatest losses and discouragements of the farmer. The immediate cause of their death maybe beyondour control, but in nine cases out often, the disease, if we searched back for enough, might be traced to dyspepsia, derangement of the bowels, and general debility. Improper and irregular feed- ing, over work in a hot sun, going to long without water, and then giving too much, are among the causes of bad di- gestion and general illheulth, but they Almost every man sets out with a. de»1 termination when a. certain sum has been accumulated to retire from the cares of business, and enjoy the balance of his days in retirement on some sunny farm or rural retreat, his vision has planned. This is wrong. You should commence the «business of life with the determine.- tiou $0 work as long as you live, and you can do this ,if you Obey the laws of health as related to your physical and spiritual nature. Your business, if fitted to your capabilities, will in the doing and right management of it, be to you a great pleasure, an intense buppinoss, and there- fore should be continual as long as you live in this world. Commencing business with this end in view will prevent you from falling into the feverish, exciting,_ unhappy and slIOI‘t~lived results, that be- long to the men who wish to rapidly ecâ€" cumulate a. fortune and retire to enjoy it. These men are not happy while counting their profits, and certainly can- not be happy when they retire to enjoy them ; for it Is an established low of na- ture that can in no wise be slighted, that labor is a. necessity to perfect growth and true unalloycd happiness. A wise man will never rust out as long as he brcatllesihe breath of life ; he will be doing something for himself, his country or posterity. Howard, Franklin, New- ton und scores of other famous men, all were at work almost to the last hour ‘of their existence. It is a foolish thing ,to think that we must lie down and die simply because we are old. The man of NEW ROOMS FROM-OLD ONES. My wife, says a correspondent, has a wonderful facility of making the most of a few things in the room, and l have been analyzing her management to see what there is in it that makes everything about the mom take on so fresh an ap- pearance occasionally. It is certainly not by bringing in now things, because the condition of the family pocket-hook would not tolerate so rash a proceeding. She acts upon the principle that “ a fair exchange isno, robbery.“ The articles of furniture in position give ohm‘uci‘cr to a. room, and it is not Often that the most costly articles make the moss pleasing efi‘ect, showing that the position Often has most largely lo do with their inâ€" fluence. Is is from this belief that she makes occasionally those beautiful trans- formations.- by which our home seems to take on new attractions and give new pleasures. Even the exchange of couch and stand upon (liil'crenl’ sides of the room has a good effect ; the truth is, we are all children in one sense and are dc- lighted with new things; even if they are intrinsically no boitor thaw. the old ones. The removal of u vaseof flowers or plant from a. bracket to the stand fore day, is a. pleosing change at limos. .Wo enjoy the alivcrution of looking at things in the distance and then viewing them close at hand, Those who have not tried these experiments have lost an endless source of delight. I am aware that some of the lords of creation :ch strenuously , opposed to transfornmtions of this sort, and althOuglI they practice the same thing out of doors with evident satisfac- tion, they are “off the hooks” at once if the least change is made in the old or- rangcment in doors. The oulv thing I can say about these specimens; Is that their forms of crystallization are wrong, and they must be melted over again. The women know how to do this best. EXTERMINATE THE MOTES. Early in the spring of the year small moths may be seen flying about the dwelling-house. Some are of‘ a light, silvery gray color, while others are of a. cream color. Let these be caught and crushed, and you will not be troubled with moth-eaten garments. The moths lay eggs in your furs and in your. cloth. ing. The eggs hatch, and larva: or. little grubs are produced. Those little grule are the posts which do the mischief. \Vhon you light I» lump at evening, you ‘ will frequently. £1ll11ll, silvery, Willilsll Inillers flitting slu _'v about the light, just slow cnou u tinir iié- ' Acnsily clapped 1...“ oer. ‘tuo made in the form of bats ()1' 1):} in each hand.

After the posited there will be no use in (lusting every article with insect powder. This ) must be done to ropcl the mother moth. | It is usually supposed that moths will not flourish in cotton and linen fabrics. But a merchant writes that on one oc- casion a. box in his store, containing pieces of canvas, pudding, and cotton flannel, which .had been for four years undisturbed, was finally removed in making some improvements. On ex- amining its contents, hundreds of moths were found in it, and these had scor d the l woolen, forming their cylindrical cases out of one kind as freely as another, the only diii'erence being that they did not cut through the linen and cotton as they did through the woollen. Ordinarily, however, moths are rather nice in their tastes, for we have found the softer and finer fabrics more liable to their infesta. tions than those of a coarser and harder quality; but, where opportunities for this discrimination do not exist they will attack anything and everything that is woolen, and rather than starve they will also appropriate linen and cotton, unless the surface is too smooth and hard. I TAKING- A COLD. The human frame was intended for activity, but it must be managed. A locm‘notivc can run very fast, but if shopped instantaneously, when going at a. high rate of speed, it is injured ; so a skilful engineer tones down his speed gradually. In this lies the whole secret of not catching a. cold. After walking, 01' running, or dancing, or any exercise that quickeus the circulation, a. little from an open door, fora. few minutes, just to cause a. chill, is sure to produce a. cold. Merely stopping on 'the street in a current of air will do the job. After exercise, always seek res-j, in a sheltered place, where you will be warm, never being busty to remove but, gloves or cap. let perspiration subside bciorc disrobing if in-doors,ond if out-doors always keep gently nwving until the usual condition is attained. 0 Experience continually contradicts the notion that a poor young man cunnot rise. If we look over the list Of rich men, we find that nearly all of them began life with little 01' nothing. To any one from iliar with tho millionaires of the United States, a. score of examples will occur. 0n the other bend, the sons of rich men, who begin life with the capital which so many poor young men covet, frequently «lie beggars. It would probably not is going too far to say {but a. large majority of such monicd individuals, either fail outright or gradually eat up the capital, with which they commenced their career. And the reason is plain. Brought up in expensive habits, they spend entirely too much. Educated with high notions of personal importance, they will not suc- cccd, as they are passed in the race Of life by others with less capital Originally, but nure energy, thrift and industry. For these virtues, after all. are worth more than money. They make money, in fact. Nay, after it is made, they en- able the possessor to keep it, which rich men pronounce to be more diflicult than the making. The young man who be- gins life with the resolution always to lay by a portion of his income, is sure, even without extraordinary ability, gradually to acquire a. sufficiency, espec- iully as habits of~ economy, which the resolution renders necessary, will make that a competency for him which would be quite insufficient. for" an extravagant person. It is really what we save more than what we make, which leads us'to fortune. He who enlarges his expenses as fast as his earnings increase, must al- hope and energy is not old, it is only he who suffers his energy to become motion- less, on whose hands the hours hung heavily. , L44.-.” 4. ~â€"~“‘ A ways be poor, no matter What his abilitâ€" ies.
