CLIPPINGS.PROSPECTUSJas Ipfflas ajttiethe unfortunate hair-dres3- who

finally found words to stammer outthat twelve or fifteen dollars a monthwould do.

Pshaw! said the old man: that will

&1H VIy G A MILLIUXMUE.Hven-bc'l- v who lives in xicw Jer-

sey will recollect Billy Gibbons,tuc millionaire. IIo was an eccentricman, ami numerous stones ato toldof his freaks, llcreisoneof thorn:

lt teems that Billy, while in a

tountry villnge, in whiua !io ovuedseme property, stepped into a barbership to get shaved. The shop va9fall of customers and the old gentlewan quietly waited for his turn.

A customer who was under thebarber's hands when the old gentleman came in asked the "knight ofthe razor," in mi undertone, if heknew who that was? aud, on rcceiving a negative roply,he informedhim in u whisper, it was "Old BillyGibbons, the richest man in the

'

State.""Gad," leaid the barber, "I'll

cWge'him for his shave."Accordingly, after the old man

had the operation performed, he wassomewhat surprised,tupon inking theprice, to be told "scvuity-uV- e cents."

"ieventy-iiv- o cents," said lie,quietly, "sn't that rather a highprice?"

"it's my price," said lie of thehither brasil, independently, "andthis is thu only barber's shop in theplace, tiieia as couc into it must paywtiu: I csk."

To the old mnn this was evidentlyj. kjioek-eiow- n argument, for hedrew thveeMjuartcrs i f dollar fromhis pocket, paid them over to theburlier, urul kit the shop.

A short time after this lie wi3 inelote cunvci'tation with the landlordof a tavern Lard bv, and the topic otthe conversation was "barbershops."

"Why is it," said he, "there's onlyone barber's shop in town? Therestems to be nearly work for two. '

"Well, there used to be two," saidthe latiihord, "till last winter, whenthis new Hum came up from the cityand opened a new shop, and, as every-thing in it was fresh and new, folkssjrtof deserted Bill llaningtun'sshop, which had been gwiuj on fornigli fourteen years."

"But didn't this Bill do goodwork? Didn't he shave well andcheap?"

" .Veil, as fir that," said the land-lord, "BUI did his work will enoui'Ji, but his bhop wasn't on themain street like the new one, aivldidn't have so many pictures andhandsome curtains, ami nil of thefolks got in tho way of thinking the

wilds and deserts; all over the place,sometimes riding negroes, and sotne,

times traveling by r41.' I didn'tuiiiid the rail or any'thing else sdtfyat I didn't come in for the tar andfathers! I found that man at Ujijia place you may know, if you haveever been there and it was a verygreat satisfaction that I found him

just iu the nick of time. I found thatpoor old man deserted by his niggersand by his geographers, deserted byall of lis kind exeept the gorillasdejected, mwwable, famishing, abso-

lutely famishing; but he was elo

qucnt. Just as I iouud him he hadeaten his last elephant, and he saidto me:" God knows hcrejl shall getanother." lie had nothing to wearexcept bis venerable and honorablenaval suit and nothing to cat but his

diary. But I said to bim, "Its allright, I have discovered you, andMauley will be here iy the fouro'clock train and In will discoveryou officially, and then we will tarnto and have a reg'lar good time." Ibaid, "Cheer up, Stanley has gotcorn, ammunition, glasB beads, hymn-books- ,

whisky and everything whichtho human heart can desire; be i'asgot all kinds of valuables, includingtelegraph poles and a few cart-loa- d

of money. By this time communi-cation has been made with the landof Bibles and civilization, and pro-

perty will advance." And then wesurveyed all that country from Ujiji,through Unanoga and otlur places,to Unyauyouibc. I mention thesenames simply for your edification,nothing mere do not expect itparticularly as inteligencc to the Royal Geographical Society.(Roars oflaughter) And then, having filled upthe old man, we were all too full forutterance, and departed, wo havesince then feasted on honors, Stanleyhas received a snufl'oox, and I recei-ved considerable snuff; he has got towrite a Look aud gather in the rest:f tho credit, and I am going tolevy on tho copyright ami to collectthe money. .Nothing comes amissto me cash or credit; hut seriouslyI do feel that Stanley is tho chiefm in, and an illustrious one, and 1 do

applaud Lim Viith all my heart.Whether ho is an American or aWelshman by birth, or one or both,matters not to me. So far as i am

personally concerned, I am here tostay a few months, and to see Eng-lish people, and to learn Englishmanners and customs, and to enjoymyself; so the simplest thing 1 cando is to thank you for the toast youhave honored me with and for theremarks you have made, and to wishhealth and'prosperity to tho IFhite- -

Now listen to ine I'll giveyou that btore, rent free, one year,and engage your services six monthsall on these conditions: You are toshave and cut hair for everybodythat applies to you, and take no pay.just charge it to me and for your services I'll pay you twenty-dollar- s amonth, payable in advance pay tocommence now, continued he, plac-

ing two ten dollars notes on the tableboi'oro the astonished barbor, who, itis almost unnecessary to state, ac-

cepted the proposition, and who wasstill more surprised to learn that itwas Billy Gibbons himself that hadhired him.

In a few days the inhabitants ofthat village were astonished by theappearance of a splendid new bar-

ber shop, far surpassing the otherin elegance of appointments, and inwhich, with new mugs, soap, razors,and peifutnes, stood a barber andassistant roady to do duty on theheads and beards of the people.Uver the door was inscribed "WiUliani Barington, Shaving aud HairDressing Saloon."

The people Were not long in as-

certaining or slow iu availing them-selv- es

of the. privileges of this estab-

lishment, and it is not co be wonder-ed that it was crowded and the otherdeserted. The other held out someweeks, suspecting this free shaving

lor Bill kept his secret well wasbut a dodge to entice customersawny, who would soon be chargedat but when at the end of sixweeks he found Billy working awavas usual, charging not a cent tor hilabor, and having money to spendin the bargain, he came to the con-

clusion that ho must have drawn aprize in the lottery, or stuinpled up-

on a, goM mine, aud wis keepingbarber shop for fun, so he closed thobarber shop in despair and left theplace.

Meanwhile, "Billy Harrinton"kept on buy as a bee, and one tine

morning his employer stepped in,and, without a word, sat down andwas shaved ; o.i rising from his seathe asked to see the score for the sixmonths past. The barber exhibitedit, and after a carefull calcula'.iouthe old man sail:

"Plenty of customers, eh?""Lots of 'em," said the baiber;

"never did such business in my life.''Well,' replied Money Uags, you

have kept tho account well. I aceI have paid you one hundred andtwenty dollars for your servicis all

right and there aro three hundredand thirty charged for shaving; allthat applied; now, this furniturecost mo one hundred and eight do:

lars; balanco due you one hundand two dollars. Here it is. INONV

Ml

you own this furniture, and are tohi.ve this shop rent free six monthslonger, and after to-da- y are tocharge the regular price for work,for your pay lroui me stops to day.

This, of course, the barber gladlyassented to.

But, eaid the old man, on leavingtakn care you never cheat a man bycharging tea times tho usual pricefor a shave; for it may be anotherold Billy Gibbons.

H'hat Ihave done for England and civiliza-tion iu the arduous affairs which Ihave engaged in that is good thatis so smooth that 1 will say it again,and again, that I have done for Eng-land and for civilii-atio- in tho arduous part I have perfoimed, 1 havedone with a single-hearte- d devotionand with no hope of reward.

The acquittal of Mrs Fair, at San Fran-cisco, is simply an outrage, and entitles thepunishment which ought to have followedner crimes. She became the kept mistressof a business man of San Fraucisec.

Wc glean tho folio .ving from the

Eliiibctb City Roihcay. Press amiTelryraph of the 12th inst. :

"The Denver Tribune lms recently sent acorrespondent to do np nnd fkim over NewMoxico, and tliu following is hia noiicn ofLa Viyaa, which wh leave to tho considerati.m ot the m ess of that thri ving town:

The busy litio Mexican town of Las Vepnswas keeping u its reputation for uoth thrilland extravagance, l'ere J could seo the

mountainous and dangerous, 1 woul.l ra-

ther run the i isk of an upset conch, than theclmuces of mcnliug some of the cut throatinhabitants of this forbidding town,"

Wonder who that saintly disposeil correspondent of that "ring sheetwas or is who, on coming to Our town

or rather driving through it, so

buickly discerns all about us.

"An hour spent in this town is

enough for me."Y hut a miserable falsehood. Ne-

ver, to our recollection did the coachstop an hour in Las Vegas, but itmight have had consideration an ascum liko him to lay over that timein one short hour, to learn all aboutour "thrift and extravagance."

It may bo that coming directlyfrom Denver, that lovely spot, where

policemen bj the dozens are necessary to keep the peace and vigilancecommtttoits are the order of the day,to keep down the horsestealing f'raernity in that ueighborhoo ', that ourtown may look frugal and thrifty',and tliat, as Denver is renown to feedthoir railroad men all the yeararound on applesauce and slop wa.tcr, oa account of w hich every threehundred new recruits may last them

a week, our ways and means maylook to be extravagant.

But, we t link, that chap of a conrespondent must have felt quito

for he is well versed in thehabits and expressions of the Den

vcritos in talking about 4 idle gam-

blers and hangers on with luungercpouring 'distilled damnation, down

throats already parched from the

Coming here at four o'clock intho evening, and staying o.ily onehour as he says, how does he knowwhat has passed on the previousnight. Did any body tell him so, ordocs he recollect his own faults whenafter cvsning prayers were over ondthe old folks retired, he, instead ofpeeking repose, slipt out through theback door or window to hunt uphis chum?, tho idle gambler, hangeron and loungers, and return home

at tho "wee sina, hours" full of dis-

tilled damnation and debauch."How well and true the last of the

abovo paragraphs reads.Drive on, Coachee though tho road

be mountainous and dangerous, 1

ruber run the risk of an upset coachthan the chances of getting ejinewho, after finding out all the liesand Lindera I have Written aboutthem, to coma to tear and feathermy.

Miserable wretch! How Wei! it isfor you that your name or foulcarcass is not known among us forthen, indeed, might some of the cut-throat inhabitante of this forbiddingtown tear out that ile tongue ofyours and otherwise give you a leston which may bo oi some good toyou and your likes.

Through cucli infamous lies andslanders as the above our territoryis continually misreproseuteu; hardlypasses a week but like articles aregoing the rounds in eastern paperswithout one particle of truth or jus-tice in their denunciation.

Wo do not deny that wo also haveonr tanatics who, like in the iSewEngland State?, burued in yearsgone by their witches in the pubicstreets.

Wo also freely admit that amongus. lika in Jenver, Chicago andoilier cities, we have that class ofladies wht like to apply for a di-

vorce befcre the honeymoon i.i halfover ; and that here, as well a3 elsc-wcr- e

we have those who like to havetheir fingers in other men' pockets.

Hut, is tho uplinder in our eyeonly visible to those East of us here,without noticing their own beam?

Is it because we have a race herowho in part hang on to tho customsand manners practiced and indulgedin by tho nation they formerly be-

longed to ?

We dare our cstern neighbors,especially thoso of Denver, to com-- !pare their social standing or the re- -'

enjoyment ot all that is good andtr ae in nnturc; whence can it acquirea more solemu delight than from thesurvey of the wonderful designs ofin infinite wisdom, and the counties?Tfcbrks of an uidimitted power; andlast, but not least, must not the willbe almost perfectly happy, when itsSummum Bonutn, the only thing infact that ctin comp'etely fill its capa-

could not fail to perceive in itthe greatest, highest good the posses-sion and enjoyment of which alonecould satisfy the innumerable desiresof our hearts, llenen, since know-

ledge teaches us so much about thocharms of nature; fsinco by it we bold-

ly venture into the fields of Omnipo'tence to S3; n h s designs and works;and since by it finally a union, imperfeet though it be, is effected betweenui and the Highest Good wo canthink of or desire, it lawfully foUlows that the miro we learn aboutthese things the happiot our heartswilt feel, or, iu other words, that we

Great philosophers while engagedin the contemplation of truth, iu theWvAx sciences which the? inako theirfavorite studios, have often pausedamid their reflections and asked them1selves, the following question; do wn

grow more happy, as wc grow morelearned? Of course, as in many otherj:reat philosophical questions, so inthe present one, there ia amongthem some difference of opinion; butmost of them agree iu asserting thatwe do grow happier, as we grow morelearned. We think this opinionright and true; and wo hope tostrengthen it by advancing one ortwo arguments, which, feeble as theymay appear to others, to us seemperfectly conclusive. No person ofsound understanding will ever standup, and deny that whatever is or hasexistence is good, at least in so far t8it has that existence.

Whatever is comes from God, and

consequentlymust be good, becauseGoil being infinitely perfect in hisattributes cannot make any thingwrong or bad. From Litis, then, itfollows, as a necessary consequence,that sensible things or tho objectsaround us are essentially goutl; thatis to say, are good bcth as sensible oras the objects of our external senses,and also m their intelligible essenceor nature. But things considered in

their intelligible essence ere theproper, adequate, and conaturalobject of our understanding, for wei., o a.'.-- jj (.w.fvwkij uniy lien we

know it in us essence; consequentlytiiu ohject of our understanding, is

something realiyj good, for essencesare something, and whatever is, is

good, Ihis truth being laid down,let us now briefly examine a power o!

che soul very intimately connectedivith the understanding, v;z, t:ie will,'i i mi ij. ins power is sum oy nwiiy to nc ireeiu its action; but very lew undertand what they mean when they saythis. The will, to be sure, is tree inits action in cIiíkíSÍiht nr Tint, flinneinir

: o - atne best means to attain its final enJwhich is áurcme Good or God; butit is not free in regard to that end,nor in regard to good in general, forit is by a law ot its nature necessitated to love good, because gopri assuch is its eo.'iatural object. J hatall wills tend to gcod; and that nowill does or can love evil, as evil, aretwo facts which every well experience!! man has not tailed to notice inthe human race.

Those things bci:;g premised thoproof of our proposition seems quiteevident; but before we come to treatit more directly let us endeavour toget a definite idea of the termslearning and happiness. Vehavesaid above that we know a thing perfectly. only when we know in its inttlligible essence: but an essence assuch, is the object of the understateding, whence w e can safely concludethat knowledge or learning consistsin the understanding knowing itsconatural object or acquiring truth,again every power rests quiet in thepoitession of its object; the willmust therefore rest quiet in the pos- -

session of good, and consequentlyhat pines., in the broadest sense ofthe word, consists in the will posses-sing and enjoying its object whiclnsgood. Now, from these two propo-sitions the truth of which, we think,no one can call iu question, we hopeto show, by valid argument, the truthot the preposition wo favored in thebeginning viz that We grow happieras we grow more learned.

Tho understanding in knowing,perceives its object, that is, the intel-ligible essence of a thing, or truth;but truth as such 3 good. Now thepower of the will being so intimatelyconnected with tho understanding, isimmediately called into action by tinsgood to which it tends by virtue ofthe law of its nature which necessi-tates it to lovo that good. Conse-quently our first conclusion ia that'

ACCIOX BENEVOLA DEMONTESQUIEU.

Montesquieu, el inmortal autor"Del Espíritu do las Leyes," se pa-seaba un ilia eu Marsella por la ori-

lla del mar. Un joven, llamadoRoberto, estaba en un boto esperan-do que cntraao alguno. Montesquieu entro y 8o sentó; mas a pocorato se disponía a palir, creyendoquo Roberto no era el patron, y di-

ciendo quo supuosto no parecía eldueño del boto iba a pasar a otro."Señor, e8te bote es mío," le dijo el

joven; "quiero V. salir del puerco?""No, scuor, pue3 no queda mas queuna hora de día. Solamente deseodar unas vueltas por el puerlo paradisfrutar do la frescura y belleza dela tarde. Pero V. no tieno trazasde ser marínelo."

"Efectivamente no lo soy, y pi

me empleo en esto es por ganar algo los domingos y dias de fiesta."

'Tan joven, y tan avaro! en ver-

dad, que esto disminuye tel interésque inspira vuestra fisonomía. "

"Ay! seaor, si Bupiera V. porquedeseo ganar dinero, no pensaría V.

tan mal de mi.""lie podido equivocarme, pero es

por no haberse esplicado V. Em-

pocemos a dar nuestro escursion, yV. me contara su historia."

"Mi desgracia," dijo el joven,impeliendo el bote con los remos,es hallarse mi padre cautivo, y nopoder redimirle. Con el dinero quepudo recojer compro unas mercancí-

as y se embarco para Esinirna ; pe-

ro d buque fue cojído por un corsa-

rio, y llevado a Tetuan, dondo estaeaclavo con todos los demás de latribulación. Piden mis duros porsu rescate, pero como hizo un ebt'u

crzo para que la especulación mcrcantil fuese mas importante, estamosbien lejos poseer Cata euma. Mi ma-

dre y mis hermanos trabajan dia ynoche; )o hago lo mismo en casa demi amo, que es un joyero ; y apro-vecho los domingos y fiestas. JS'os

privamos de cuanto podemos ; viví1

inos en una casa muy pequeña. Alprinripío trate de ir a libertar a mi

padre, poniéndome en fu lugar;mas cuando iba a pjecutar este pro-

yecto, lo supo mi madre, no so co-

mo, y me aseguro que era impracti-cable y quimerino."

"Y reciben Vds, do cuando en erando noticias de su padre ? so sabequien es su amo en Tetuan, v comole traia'r"

"Su amo ps el qne cuida de losjardines del rey, y lo trata bien."

"Y en Tetuan que nombre tio-ie?- "

"til-mism- quo tenia aqui, Rober-to Laplac.í."

"Siento infinito snntjanto desiracia, pero ino atrevo a presajir a lafamilia da V. una suurto digna dosus buenos sentimientos, y lo deseosinceramente. Al embarcarme de-

seaba entregarme un rato a la sole-

dad; no le sepa a V, pues mal queme mantengo silencioso,"

Ap que se hizo de noche, Roberto atraco al muelle, Montesquieu, altiempo de salir, lo entrego un bolsi-llo, y sin darl j tiempo de que so lo

agradeciera, desapareció. El jovjnabrió el bolsillo, y hallo unos quinrcntos francos cu oro y co de veinteen plata. Todo? los esfuerzos quehizo después para encontrarle y darle las gracias fueron vanos.

Pasaron seis, semanas, la familiacontinuaba trabajando tin descansopara completar la suma que se ñeco-hitab- a,

cuando un dia, a la hora enque todos estaban comiendo ti tristealimento, solo bastante para vivir,ven aparecer a Roberto, el padre,vestido muy decentemente. La mu-

jer y los hijos quedan asombrados yun momelito después so entregan ala mas viva alegría. El bunn padrempieza a darles las graciis por

los doscientos duros quo Je h ai envi-ado, ademas de habtrb pagado elrescate, el vestido y el pasaje yxranutencion duranto el vrije. y norede,iojar baetante el amor y elcelo do to.ios u ds la familia. To-l-

quedín ídmiralos; la madrecree quo a su Lijo es a quien se debetodo esto y cuenta a su mando todolo que el La herbó. '

"Teníamos algo mas de la mitaddel dinero necesario para el rcj-cate-,

es de suponer que haya hallado ami"gos que Jt hayan ayudado."

El padre se figura que ti el hijo noha participólo a su iiadro su Vsiliio, es por haber cmp'cado algúnuieuio deshonroso, y se ehtreuiecc al

tcnar qno ti amor Chai lo LabrauLo culpable."Sosieguec V., padre mió,", re

Paseándose un domingo su Lijo porel puerto encontró al desconocido;corre a el, y hecnace a sus pies.

, "Oh bienhechor mió!" es lo únicoque puede proferir.

Montesquieu le pregunta la causaue su entusiasmo.

"; Como puede V. ignorarla, Senor' No te acuerda V. de Robertoy de bu desgraciada familia, cuyopadre redimió V. del cautiverio!

"Y. se equivoca, amigo mió," responde el virtuoso Montesquieu, queno quiere ser reconocido, "ílacemuy pocos dias que estoy en Marsella."

"No digo que no, pero hace veintey seis mcfics que también estuvo aqui;acuérdese V. de aquella tarde que lelleve a una corta escursion por el

puerto, y de las preguntas quo V. mehizo. V, es el libertador ue mi pa'dre, el salvador de toda mi familia,quo solo desea conocer a V., vengaV. conmigo y acabe V. de hacernosfelizes con su presoncia.

"la le he dicho a Y., amigo mió,que se equivoca.

"No Señor no me equivoco, bien

me acuerdo de su cara de Y, ,del ecoda su voz; venga Y. Señor, vengaconmigo, lo ruego.1

Al mismo tiempo le ceje por el

brazo; las :entes empiezan a reunirse, y Montesquieu, para desembarazarse, levanta la voz y dico con tonograve y firme: "Señor, esta escenaempieza a sor algo molesta. El errorde V. nace sin uuda de parecerme aesa persona que hizo a Y. el favor de

nue üabla." JM joven insiste, quiereUetenerie, pero Montesquieu, hacien- -

oose alguna violencia, reuniendo todas sus tuerzas para resistir a la seduccíou dol placer delicioso que te le
