What man would submit to such treatment? If the plow is started at seven in the morn. ing, water should be given again before ten ; and again in the afternooh by four o’clock. Even if half an hour is thus * consumed, more work will he d‘dne in a day. In driving a horse on the head at a natural gait of nine or ten miles in an hour, I have often had occasion to ob- serve that he was laboring with perâ€" spiration until I let him drink freely, when he ceased to sweat and evidently travelled more freely. Don’t be afraid to give your horses water, the danger is in making them abstain too long, in which case care is needed. There are many Esaus. Of the multi- ’t‘udes of men who go up and down among ‘us, how many are there who have not .sold their birthrights ? What Makes a. Man. Notwithstanding the fall, there is ni bift‘hright for every one. Manhood is the noblest heritage which can accrue to being. Purity, honor and truth were not all npyielded when the ï¬rst man ;siuned. In these with man: has still a share. Of these, alas! thousands are daily selling their portion for a mess of pottage ! Esau and Jacob of old were types of 3 two great classes that were to exist lon‘g after,â€"the one weak, lustful and foolish ; the other sharp, far-sighted, Egrasping. And so long as Esaus remain, there will! he J acohs to proï¬t by their weakness, their improvidence.

But at their best they are only pottage, and miserable compensation for that which they pur- chase.

It is only by thinking that a man can I know himself. Yet all other knowledge ? without this is splendid ignorance. Not a glance merely, but much close exam- ination will’be requisite, for the form- partial observation, that a man can discover his real disposition.

The London Telegraph, speaking of the dire necessity there is for er'nigra- tion from England, thus refers to the want and starvation in England : Everybody knows that in rich and will crowded London people starve to death inv daily; almost everybody hastens to for. ~ owl get the grim fact as soon and thorough- in 1 ly as possible. But the cruel knowl- net edge will not be suppressed; at intervals ' doi far too frequent it is forced back on the ret inemory and conscience by shch a sad re: morning’s work as Mr. Udroner Hum- no phreys had to perform on Saturday at pi] Mile end, New Town. Three inquests st: were held one after the other, on per- 1y sons who had perished from sheer desti- ta? tution ; all men, and all, it .appeared no from the evidence,in‘dhstrious strugglers to for an honest livelihood. One was an yc old shoe-maker, who had been ailing for or sO‘r‘n‘e weeks, and who had resolutely re- p1 fused to see the parish doctor, lest he B , should be ordered in the workhouse.-â€" m , Two half-pounds of meat in a fortnight, k‘ . his'widow said, was the utmost amount t; of animal food they eVer ha'd ; and, after 3 paying rent, all the father, mother and «I f children had to live upon was 68. or Ye. ‘ t per week. The other victims “were, y young men. Unable to get work, they 11 3‘ were in each case forced into the work- , .r house, only when they had stood out , .1' against the dire necessity so long, that , 1e they were physically out of the hope of , ,e help. The Coroner might Well express , (,5 himself relieved at “getting to an end , 1 39 with the list of â€Cases, and afï¬rm that . of ‘the sufferings from want disclosed in the evidence taken was something dread- ey ful to think of.’ Precisely; therefore 1d we go our daily way, doing our best not _. to think of it ; and even . when some 1;. lurid gleam of light is suddenly shed on in- the perpetual and desperate battles 1.; against poverty and death, in which men ,3}, and woihen are silently'l'ailing every day ten the eï¬ect produced is my slight.

Fully identiï¬ed with Scottish nation- ality as it is, the bagpipe is yet of other than Scotch origin. It was doubtless ' * imported into S'é'o‘llaud from Norway, wire’r'e its use is now little known. Who invented it, we cannot tell. Scotchmen owe a great debt to some one, for efl'orts win that line.
