John Burns of Gettysburg.
BV   BBET   HARTE.
Have you heard the story lliat gossipa tell
Of Burns of Gettysburg?—No! Ah, well;
Brief is the glory that hco earns,
Brief r the story of poor   John Burns;
He was the fellow won renown,—
The only man tbat didn't back down
When the rebels roaU through his nat ve town
But held his own in the fight next day.
When all his townfolk ran away,
That was in July, sixty-three,
The very day that General Lee,
Flower of Southern chivalrj-.
Baffled and beaten, backward reeled
From a stubborn Meade and a barren field.
I might tell how, but tlie day before,
John Burns stood at his cottage door,
Looking down the village street,
Where, in the shade of liis peaceful vine.
He heard the low of his gathered kine.
And felt their breath with incense sweet;
Or I might say, when thc sunset burned
The old farm gable, he thoughtit turned
The milk thnt fell, in a bubbliuo; flood
Into the milk-pail, red as blood I
Or how he fancied the hum of bees
Were bullets buzzing among the trees.
Bul all such fanciful thoughts as these
Were strange to a practical man like Burns,
Who minded only his own concerns,
Troubled no more by fancies fine
Than one ofhis calm eyed, long-tailed kine,—
Quite old-fashioned and matter-of-fact.
Slow to argue, bat quick to act.
That was the reason, as some folks say.
He fought so well on that terrible day.
And it was terrible.    On the right
Raged for hours the heavy fight,
Thundered thc battery's double bass,—
DifScult music for men to face I
While on the left—where now the graves
Undulate like the living waves
That all that day unceasing swept
Up to the pita the rebels kept—
Round shot plow'd the upland glades ;
Sown with bullets, reaped with l)lades;
Shattered fences here and there
Tossed their splinters in theair;
The very trees were stripped and bare;
The barns that once held yellow grain
Were heaped with harvests ofthe slaiu ;
The cattle bellowed on the plain.
The turkeys screamed with  might nud   main,
And brooding baru-fowl left their rest
With strange shells bursting in each nest.
Just where the tide of battle turns,
Erect nnd lone stood old Johu Burns.
How do you think the man was dressed ?
He wore an ancient long buff vest,
Yellow as saffron,—but his best;
And, buttoned over his manly breast,
Was a bright blue coat, with a rolling  collar,
And large  gilt   buttons—size   ofa   dollar,—
With tails thnt the country-folk called "swal-
ler." He wore a broad brimmed, bell-crowned  hat, Wiiite as the locks on whicii it sat. Never had sucli a sight been seea For forty years on the village green. Since old John Brown wns a coiwitry beau, And went to the "quiltings" long ago.
Olose at his elbows all that day.
Veterans of the Peninsula,
Lunburnt and bearded, charged awuy;
And striplings, downy of lip and chin,—
Clerks that the Home Guard mustered in,—
Glanced ns they passed, at the hat he wore,
Then nt the rifle his right hand bore ;
And hailed him, from out their youthful  lore,
With scraps of a slangj- reperloire :
'Uow are you, White Hat!' 'Put her through !'
"Your head's level," and "Bully for you I"
CaUed him f'Daddy,"—begged he'd disclose
The name of the tailor who made   his clothes,
And what was the value he set on those ;
While Burns unmindful of jeer and scoff,
Stood there picking the rebels oH",—
With his long brown rifle, and bell crown hat.
And the swallow tails they were   laughing at.
'Twas but a momeut, for that respect Which clothes all courage their voices checked; And something the wildest  could understand Spake in the old man's strong right hand ; And bis corded throat, and the lurking frown Ofhis eyebrows under his old bell-crown ; Until, as they gazed, there crept au awe Through the ranks in whispers, and some men
saw, In the antique vestments and   long white hair The Past of the Nation in battle there ; And some ofthe soldiers since declare That the gleam of his old white hat afar. Like the crested plume of thc  brave Navarre, That day was their oriflammc of war. So raged the battle.    You know the rest: How the rebels, beaten and backward pressed. Broke at the final charge, and ran At lyhich John Burns—a practical man— Shouldered his rifle, ui.beut his brows. And then went back   to his   bees   aad cows.
That is the story of old John Burns;
This is the moral tbe reader learns;
In fighting the battle, thc  question's ¦vyhether
You'll show a hat that's white, or a feather I
ik Mox^Sdlu.
THE MANAGINa WIPE.
Ezra Newton had just finisheil looking over his yearly aooount.s, '-Well,'' asked his wife, looking up, ''how dj vou cjine out?"
"I find," said her husbimd, "that my expenses during the lai^t year have been thirty-.soven cents over a thousand dollars':"
"And your income h.is been a. thousand dollars'!"
'¦Yes. I managed protty well didn't I?"
'Do you think it managing well to ex¬ ceed yovtr income ?" said his wiio.
'•What's thirty-.'icvcn cents ?" asked Mr. Newton, lightly.
"Not much to be sure, but .still somo¬ thing. It seems to mo that wo oucht to have saved instead of falling behind."
"l)Ut how can we save ou this salary, Elizabeth'/ We haven't lived extraviigant- ly.    Still it seems to have taken all."
"Perhaps there is something iu which we might retrench. Snppose you mention some ofyour items."
'¦The most importjintare hoti.sc rent, one hundied and fii'ty dollars, and articles of food, five hundred dollars."
'•Just half."
"Yes, and you'll admit that wc can't re¬ trench there, Elizabeth. 1 like to live well. I had enough of poor b^ard before I married. Now, I ii:eii:i to liyc as \Yell as I can."
'^Still we ought to be saving up some¬ thing agaiust a rainy d.iy, Ezra."
'¦'Ihat would ba .something like carrying ad umbrella when the sun shiues."
'•Still it is well to havc an umbrella in the house."
'¦I can't controvert your logie, Elizabeth, but I am afraid we shan't be able to savo up anythiug this year. W'lien I get my salary raised, it will be time enough to think of that."
'Let me make a proposition to you," said Mrs. Newton. You say that one half ofyour income^has beeu expended on arti¬ cles of food. Are you willing to allow me that-sum for the purpose ?"
"You guarantee to p.iy all bills out of it?"
'•Yes."
"And relieve me of all care on that point?"
"Yes."
"Then 1 will shift the responsibility up¬ on yau with pleasure. But I oan till you beforehand you wont be able to save much out of it."
"Perhaps uot. At any rate I will en¬ gage not to exceed it.''
'•That's well. I shouldn't relish having any additional bills to pay.    As I am paid
every inonth. I will at each p.iymoat hand y.nt hall' the money. '
Trie difierent characters of the husband and wife may bo judged from thc coiiver- satio:i which has been recordod. Mr. New¬ ton had but little prudence of foresight. He lived chiefly for thc present, and seemed to fancy that whatever contingencies might aaise in the future, he would somehow be pro ided I'or. Now trust in Providence is a very proper feeling, but tliere is a good doal of truth in tlio old adage that God will help those w'uo help themselves, and in proportion as they arc disposed to help themselves.
Mrs. Newton, on the contrary, had been brought up iu a family whicli was com¬ pelled to be economical, and although she was not disposed to deny herself comforts, yet she felt that it was desirable to procuro them at a fair price.
The time at which this conversation took place was at the cominenceaient of thc sec¬ ond year of their married life.
The first step which Mrs. Newtou took, on accepting the char^re of the hjti.sehold expenses, was to institute the practico of pjiying cash for all articles that came under her department. She accordingly called on the butcher and inquired :
"Ilow often have you beeu in  the habit of presenting your bills. Mr. Williams?" "Once in six months" was tho reply. •'And I .suppose you sotuetinies have b.id bills ?"
'Yis, one-third of my profits on an av¬ erage, are swept off by tlicm.''
'•And yon could afiord, I suppose to sell somewhat cheaper for ready mouey ?"
"Yes, and would be glad if all my cus¬ tomers would give mo a chance to do so." 'I will set them an exampl'j then," said Jlrs. Newton. 'Hereafter whatever arti¬ cles shall be purchased of you will be paid for on the spjt, and we shall expect you to sell as rcas-mably as you can.
This arraugeuient was also made with others, who it is scarcely needful. to .s;iy. were very glad ty enter into tho arrange¬ ment. Keady inouey is the gre;it .support of trade, and a cash eustoaier is worth fiVo who purcha.se on credit.
Fortunately 3Irs. Xewton had a small supply of mnney by her which lasted till the tirst monthly installment from her hus¬ band became due. Thus sho was enabled to cjrry out her Citsh plan i'rom the begin¬ ning.
Anothar plan which occurred to  her as likely to save  expenses, was to purchase articles iu large i|uantities.    She had som saved enough from the money allowed her j to do this     For example, in.stead  of buy¬ ing sug.ir a fev/ pounds at a time, .she pur¬ chased a barrel. an,d so suceeedtd in saving j a cent or more ou the  pouud.    'This, per- I haps amounted to but a trifle in t!ie cour« ofa year, but the same system carried out in regard to other articles yielded a result which was by no means a tri'lc.
There were other ways in which a care¬ ful housekeeper is able to limit expanse i which Mrs. Newton did not overlook. With ! an object iu view she was always on the lookout to prevent waste, and to get the | full valuo of what ever was expended. j
The result wa." beyuud her auticip.itions. \ At thc close of the year, on examining i her bank book—for she had regularly dc- | posited whatever nioney she hul not oeca- i sion to use in one of these institntiuu.s-—.she i found that she had ona hundred tind fifty j dollars besides reimbursing herself for the i money during the first month, and having j enough to last anuther. I
'Well Elizabeth, have you kept within your allowance?" asked her husband at this timo. •'I guess you havo n';t found it so o.isy to save aa you thiught for.'
•I haves ived something, however.''said his wife.    ''But how is it with you?''
'That is more than I c.in siy. Howev¬ er, I have not exceeded my ineome. That's oue gll.^d thing. I find I h ive ex¬ actly spent all. But I can't see how you havo saved auything. We h ive lived lull as well, and I don't know but w'lat better than last ye.ir, wh^u we sp'iit Uve hun¬ dred."
"It's koick, Kzra," sii! his wifj sraii- ing. ;
Sha was not ineiiue 1 tvi mentio:! luw \ Ttmc\\ aha had save J. Sho wantei some i time or other to' suprise. hiia with itl when it would ba of some service. !
'She   may   possibly   h'ive    sivo 1   up tweuty-five  dollars,"  thought   Mr.  New-1 ton, "or some such triile," and so dismiss- j ed the matter from his mind. '
At the end of the second year, Mrs. Newton's .savings, including the interest, amounted to three hundred and fii'ty dol¬ lars, and she began feel quite rich.
ller husband did uot thinlc to inquire how she had succeeded, supposing, as be¬ fore, that it could be but a very small sum. However he had a piece of good news to communicate. His salary had been raised from a thousanii to twelve hundred dollars.
He added, "-\s I before allowed you ona halt' my income for household expenses, it is no more than fair that I should do so now. I'hat will givo you a better chance to save up a part of it than before. In¬ deed, I don't know how you succeeded in saving anything thus far.
As beibre Mrs. Newton m'rely said that she had saved something without specifying the amount.
Her allowance was increased to six hun¬ dred dollars, but her expenses were not proportionally increased at all; so that her savings tor the third year swelled the aggregate sum in the saving's bank to six huudred dollars
JIr. Nev.toii. on the coutrary. in spite of his increased salary, was no better off at the end of the third yoar than before. His expenses had increased by a hundred dollais, thougli he would have tound it difiicult to tell in what way his com¬ fort or happiness had been increased there¬ by.
In spite of his carelessness in regard to his own affairs, Mr. Newton was an excel- laut man iu regard to business, and his services were valuable to his employer. They accordingly increased his salary from time to time till it roached sixteen hun¬ dred dollars. He had steadily preserved the custom of assigning one half to his wife for the same purpose as heretofore, and this had became suoh a habit that he never tlio'aght to inquire whether she found it necessary to employ the whole or not.
Thus ton years rolled away. During all this time JIr Newton lived in the same hired houso for which ho had paid an annual rent of one hundred and fifty dollars. Latterly, however, he had become dissatis¬ fied wit'u it. It had passed into the hands of a new landlord, who was not disposed to keep it in the repair which he consid¬ ered desirable.
About this time a block of excellent houses were creqtod by a capitalist, who de¬ signed ta sell or let them as he might have an opportunity. They were more modern and much better arranged than the one in which Mr. Newton now lived, and he felt
a strong desire to move in one of them. He mentioned it to his wife one morning.
'What is the rent, Ezra?" inquired his wife.
' Two hundred and twenty-five dollars for the corner house; two hundred for either of the others"
'The corner one would be preferable, on account of tho side windows."
"Yes, and they have a large yard besides. I think we must hire one of them. I guess I'll engage one to-day; you know our year is out noxt week."
"Please wait Ezra till to-morrow before engaging ono."
'•For what reason."
"I should like to examine the house."
"Very well, I suppose to-mt r.ow will be sufiiciently early."
Soon ailer breakfast Jlrs. Newtou called on Sfjuire Bent, the owner of the new block, and intimated herdesiretobe shown the corner house. The request he readily complied with; Jlrs. Newton was quite delighted with all the arranj.ements. and exprci^ssd her .satiafactiou.
'•Are these houses for sale or to let ?" ste inquired.
"pjither ." said the owner.
"The rent is, I understand, two hundred and twenty dollars."
"Yes, I consider the corner house worth at least twenty-five dollars more than the rest."
"-\nd what do you charge fbr the Jiouse to a ca.sh purchaser?" asked Mrs. Newton with subdued eagerness.
'•Four thousand dallars cash, was the reply ; and that is but a small advance upon the cost."
"Very well, I will buy rt of you ;" ad¬ ded Jlrs. Newton, quietly.
"What did I uuderstand you to say?" asked the Squire, scarcely believing his ears.
"I repeat that I will b'jy this house at your price and pay yoa the money within a week."
"Then the house is yours. But your husband suid nothing of his intention, and in fa ;t I did not know—"
"That he had the money to invest, 1 suppose you would say. Neither does he know it, aud I must ask you not to tell him for the present."
The next morning Jlrs. Newton invited her husband to tike a walk, but without specifying the direction.
'They .'oon stood in front of the house whieh he desired to live in."
"Woaldu'tyou like to go in?" she aaked.
'Yes. It's a pity we haven't got the key."
"I have the key," said his wife, and forthwith walked up the steps and pro¬ ceeded to open the door.
'•Whcu did you get the key of Squire Beut?" asked the husband.
" Yesterday when I bought the house," said his wife, quietly.
JIr. Newton gazed at his wifo iu pro¬ found nstouLshment.
"What on earth do you mean Elizabeth ?" he inquired.
'¦¦Just wh.it I say. The house is mine, and what is mine is thine. So the house is yours, Ezra."
•¦Where in the name of gcodness did you raisa the money?" asked her husband, his amazement still as great as ever.
"I haven't baen a managing wife for ten years for nothing," said Jlrs. Newton smiling.
With some difficulty Jlrs. Newton per- suailed her husband that thc price of the house was really the result of her savings. Ho felt when he surveyed the commodious arrangements of the new house, that he bad re.isons to bc grateful for thc prudence of his managing wife.

A Mistaken Notidti.
The Cincinnati Times truly remarks : That man makes a big mistake who sup¬ poses his personal affiiirs take np any greiat portion of public attention. He is assail¬ ed in the newspaper, for instance.

He imagines the publie i) equally excited about it, and hasn't the least doubt but what the public ia going without its breakfast as well as he.
Wheu he goes down town he is morally certain everybody in the street car is thinking about that newspaper attack, if not talking about it. He meets people on the street. He feels they are thinkidg about that article, and the blood mtmots to his temples every time a man looks at him.

The Wild Men of Calilbmia.
A correspondent of thc Antioch Ledger, writing from Grayson, California, says: —'¦I saw in, your paper, a short time since, an item concerning' the 'gorilla' which is said to have beeu seon in Crow Canon, and shortly alter in the mountains of Orestimba Creek. You sneered at the idea of tliere being any such 'critter' iu these hills, and were I uot better informed I should snear too, or else conclude that ono of your recent prospecting parties had got lost iu the wilderness, and didn't have sense eaough to get back to Terry's. I positively assure you Ihat this gorilla, or wild mun, or what ever you choose to call it, is no myth. I know that it exists, and that there are at least two of them, having seen thein both at once not a year ago. Thore existence had been reported at times for the past twenty years, and I have heard it said, in early days, an ourang-outang esc.iped from a ship ou thc Southern coast: but the creature I have seeu is not thatani- m:il ; and if it is, where did ha get his mite? Import her as the AVob-feet did their wives.''
•'Last fall I was h-jnting in the moun¬ tains about twenty miles south of here, aud camped five or six days in one place, as I ha\-c done every season for the past fifteen years. Several times I returned to my camp, after a hunt, and saw that the aslies and charred sticks from the fireplace and been scattered about. An old hunter notices such things, and very soon gets curious to know the cause. Although my bcddiiig and traps and little stores were not disturbed as I could see, I was anxious to learn who or what it was that so regu¬ larly visited niy camp—for clearly the half-burnt sticks and cinders could not scatter themselves abo'at. I saw no tracks near the camp, as the hard gound, covered with dry leaves, would show none. So I slarted on a circle around the place, and three hnndred yards off. iu damp sand, I stru'..k thc track of a man's feet—as I sup¬ posed—bare and of immense size. Now I was curious, sure, and resolved to lay for the barefooted visitor. I accordingly took a position a hillside, about sixty or seventy feet from the fire, and securely hid in the brush. I v.'aited and watched. Two hours or more I sat and wondered if the owner of the feet would come again, whether hC imagined what an iuterest he had created in niy inquiring mind, and finally vyliat possessed him to be prowling about there lYith no shoes on. The fire¬ place was on my right, and the spot where I saw lhe track was oi; my left, hid by bushes.
'¦It was that way that my attention was mostly directed, thinking the visitor would apoear there, and, besides, it was easier to sit and face that way. Suddenly I was startled by a shrill whistle, such as boys produce with two fingers under their tongue, and, turning quickly, I ejaculated, 'Good God:' as I saw the object of my solicitude standing beside my fire, erect and looking suspiciously around. It -^as iiii the immage of a man, but it could not havebecn human. I was never so be¬ numbed with  astonishment Ijpfore.    The

I could not have had a better opportunity fbr ob.serv- ing them, as they were unconscious of my presence. Their only object in visiting my camp seemed to be to amuse them¬ selves with swinging lighted sticks around. I have heard this story many times since then, and it has often raised an incredu¬ lous smile ; but I have met one person who has seen the mysterious creatures, and a dozen who have come across their tracks at various places between here and Pacheco Pass.
Male Dressmakers.
The Times s.ay3 that there are half a dozen dressmaking establishments in N.ew York where tho sewing upon dresses is al¬ most entirely performed by men, although they arc not visible to the ladies who call to give their orders. Iu tha secoud story ara big, bushy.lieaded Hungarians, Aus- triaus and Pules, sewing with great rapidi¬ ty on fabrics of many hues and textures.
They earn by tha piece from S22 to S32 pei week, and as high as S37 by working over time at 2.5 cents per hour. The eut ter is a mau at §25 per week.
They vary in age from twanty-five to sixty, and havo all served an apprenticeship in their several native countries.
In th'e same establishments aro girls em¬ ployed on machines who earn from $9 to 812 per week.
Each bastes his dress and prepares it for fitting; and when fitted, finishes it with rapidity at all points. Two dozen women are often found at work upon a dress, work¬ ing piecemeal at its diS'erent parts. Wo¬ men i'rom want of training, arerarely per¬ fect. Some excel in one or fwo depart¬ meuts, and are deficient iu others.
A figured organdie was shown, finished in a day and a quarter, with hems, bands, trimming of waist and drapary. high in the neck.
¦'Jlen droEsiiLikers,'' men milliners, men in the cook room, men everywhere! Really, women's sphere is getting iian^ow—too narrow^ even for old time notions. In the nurseries, we have go-cirts, baby-jumpers, and cradles, Trhich being wound up, rock themselves. And when the Celestials come to our aid as kitchen boys and housekeep¬ ers, what then ? There is but one thing left—.maternity ; and I verily believe, ifit were in the range of possibilities, that men would compass that also masculine privi¬ lege. Everything in the line of woman's labor that can bo made to pay, men are crowding themselves into. Still every pub¬ lic jonrnal tells us there are more women than men. A noted French writer says thut the World is growing feminine ; and judging from the present peculiar adapta¬ bility of men to feminine ompli)ymeiit, we should say that thore is more truth than fancy ia the assertion. If our progrosssive male members of siciety are really aspiring to become womanly in their employments, what shall we do ? It is hopad that these "vexed que.stions" about woman's labor will iiome d.iy work themselves cl !ar, as also the muddled brains in the community in regard t) them.— Thc Revolution.
Some of Dickens' Characters.
Mrs. Bardell was a Jlrs. Ann Ellis, who kept an eating-house near Doctors' Com- nnin»; a blustering Sergeant Bumpus was the original of Sergeant Buzful; and Jlr. Justice Stareleigh was a caricature, by no means extravagant, of Sir Steven Gaselee. Jlr. Fang, the truculent Bjw streat mag¬ istrate iu '•Oliver Twist," was a faithful portrait of JIr. Laing, a London police magistrate, whosa conduct had long been a subject of bitter criticism in the newspa¬ pers. "Oliver Twist" caused his reuijval. Traddlcs is said to have b'jen Sir T. N. Talfourd; Esther S'ammerson a Jli.ss So¬ phia Isejin, si.ster-in-law of Jloxon, the publisher; and Detective Buckett, the well-known Inspector Field, with whom Dickens made several interesting tours of observation. In 'Dombey and Son" sev¬ eral characters are said to have boen drawn from life. JIr. Dombey is supposed to represent JIr. Thomas Chapman, ship-own¬ er, whose ofiices were opposito the W^oodeii Jlidshipman. As if to make JIr. Chap¬ man undaiibtedly identical with Dombey, we have, as messenger of the commereial hou.so of ''Dombey and Son," one Perch, actually taken from a funny little old chap named Stephen Hale, who was pirt clerk, part messenger, in JIr, Chapman's oflice. Old Sol Gills was intended f>r a little fel¬ low named Noric, who kept a very small shop in Leadenhall street, exactly opposite the oflice of John Chapman & Co, Cap¬ tain Cuttle was one David Jlainland. mas¬ ter of a merchantman.

discard him before he ieft his house.
Presently he meets an old friend. To his surprise his friend greets him cortiial- ly and makes no allusions whatever to the subject uppermost in his mind. At length he falters forth :
''Did—did you—did you see it ?"
"See what!" says his friend with a puz¬ zled air.
"Why that—that article on me in the paper ?"
'•On you?—in tho paper?—oh yes, (suddenly recollecting), 1 did see it. That is, I glanced over it. Fact is I Lad for¬ gotten all about it."
Glanced over it! Forgotten all abont it! Great heavens 1 can this be possible ? So thinks the the victim of the terrible newspaper outrage. And then if he has any sense, it may creep through his hair that perhaps thc publie at large don't feel that consuming interest in his affirirs'lle thought they did. Peoplo are too WftCh engrossed in their annoyance and troubles to give much heed tothose of their neighbors.
Out of ten thousand readers of a daily paper eight thousaud would probably over¬ look the item entirely, cne thousand might read the heading, five hundred glance over it, four hundred and eighty read it through and forget it the next minute, nine think about it once during the day on seeing the subjeet of the article, and one (the subject) get outrageously mad, believing the eyes of the world are inextinguisha¬ bly fixed upon him for the remainder of his life.
It is very hard to make men believe this, though. We have recently had an illustration ofthe way in which an indi¬ vidual sometimes makes himself publicly notorious in attempting to "set himself right" beiore the public when few beside himsolf knew he had been set wrong, al¬ lowing that he ha.l been. A newspaper paragraph appears regarding some. person whose name is kept iu thc background, and it is forgotten by every one as soon as read, except some man who insists on wearing the coat. We will call him John Smith. John feels immediately impelled to publish a card over his own name, cal¬ ling attention to the paragraph, declarfbg he is the individual meant, and "it's no such thing." That is tbe tirst the gener¬ al public kuow such a paragraph had been published, that there is a man by the name of John Smith in the city, or that he wad the man indicated.
Some people might aave thomsehvesa heap of trouble by discarding the idea that the public ara overseeing their little personal affairs to an absorbing extent.

Cooperative Building.
It is announced that a bailding assoclc- tion, with a capital of $40,900, has been incorporated in Vv'est Flushing, to aid men ia moderate circumstances to build houses. We are not aware of thc particular plan which this associ^ation proposes to pursue. It is, however, a matter of surprise than more co-oparative building enterprises have uot baen undertaken in New-York and othor cities. Those in Philadelphia have proved highly successful, and confered homes upon'vast numbers of families who otherwise might never have been able to sit under their own vine aud fig-tree. So popular are tbose building associations in tha Quaker City that forty or fifly new ones are projected every year. Individu¬ als desirous of forming one must draw up a constitation in accordance irith the law and submit it to the court. If this con¬ stitutiou is favorably passed ^upon, they can proceed at once to work. One pro¬ viso stipulates that no association shall issue more than 3500 shares, and no mem¬ ber can purchase more than fifty shares. The design of tbis is to keep the manage¬ ment of the association out of the hands of spaculators. Tho tax upon each, diarc is one dollar a yeai^. Each share entitlea the holder to draw two hundred dollars from the association fbr building purpo¬ ses on giving a mortgage. If, fbr exam¬ ple, a member has ten shares, he can draw out two tbousand dollars, but no more.
Associations are required to hold month¬ ly meetings and pay their tax when due. If an association has disposed of, say tw.o thousand shares, two thousand dollars will be paid into the treasury each meeting. After the preliminary basiness haa been transacted, this purse ia put up and sokl to ths highest bidder. There are two methods of doing this, the old andthe new. In accordance with the former, the members bid what amount they are ¦willing to leave in the treasury of tbe whole sum. Oae bids ten per cent-; a second fifteen percent.; a third, twenty per eeqt. -and soon. If the purse is struck off to the twenty per cent, bidder, he is entitled (provided he owns ten shares in the asso¬ ciation) to receive from the treasnrerthe two thousand dollars, minus twenty per cent. He gives a first or second mort¬ gage on the building which he buys or builds as security for the sixteen hundred dollars, and pays to the association six per cent, interest on the entire two thousand dollars; at thc sa'j^c time he keeps np tbc monthly dues on his ten shares. 'WKeu the settlement is finally made, the amount of those dues paid iu, together with his share of the revenues of the society deriv¬ ed f'rom fines, good investments, etc.,_are added to his payments. If tbe aggregate sum equals the amount cf indcbtediiess, his mortgage is restored, and his ac^ouoc cancelled. By the new mode of disposing of purses, the members offer to pay so much per month on the sum loaned from tho association. If the purse be two thousanddollars, and it is sttrickoffat five per cent, every month of the amount borrowed. By means of such aesociationi^, poor men are enabled to build homes on small incomes, and Philadelphia and the surrounding country arc dotted all oyer with their homes.
