Greenback*' wont go j the people think .them worth less than the paper tbey are printed on. It is truly astonishing to gee wh»t confidence they have in their rebel ?hiriplasters. One morning, some of 6nr Soldiers went to the boase of a wea'thy citizen rebel,) to purchase apples. The lady replied that she would not take ottt money in payment, nor wowld she sell to " Fad." This blooked tbe game, and the large pile of fine apple* iaDthe «elhr remained antouched. But aa idea struak one of tbe boys, and he resolved to hare some apples by strategy. The general had given orders that nothing in the bouse should be molested ; hence strategy must be resorted to.— One of the soldiers was stripped of bis uniform arid clothed' in the seccsh garb of ' butternut." A small pile of confederate shinplasters in his pocket properly prepared him for tbe enterprise. Two soldiers with fixed bayonets, marched him to the kind lady's home as a prisoner. Tbe prisoner then told his tale of suffering, not only of himself, bat of his companions and prisoners. Tbe good lady sympathized deeply with him, and sold a bushel of applea for a fitly cent sbin plaster. The prisoner shouldered tbe apples, and the gourd marehod him into camp. The strategy worked, and the boys are now doing a thriving business with fifty cent shin plasters, and manufactured prisoners, to the complete conquest of tho rebel apple pile, llow long before tbe old lady will " smell a rat" is jet to be seen." HUFFOBD HOUSE, PITT8TON, PA.— ' ■ HBXBY HUFFOBD, Proprlator. Jm. 1, 1M4. GEO. W. BR; GROCERS, RD * CO., Br N. 9- »• i Men of wealtb, who hare made tbeir own fortunes, and raised their families in ! affluence, do not always make due allowance, for the want of practical business talent, on the partr of their sons. Thoy educate them carefully and diligently«at' home, and at the boarding school. Nothing is allowed to interfere with their studies. When at home, :they have servants to wait on them constantly ; and when from home, tfasy have money to purchase, all needed attention. Tbey hates never bean taught to labour, bat, pn tbe contrary, tbey have imperceptibly, as the result of their training, imbued tho idea that. manual labor is, in some Sense, degrading. Sons thus educated, are stafted'in busines#—the very same in which their parents have nocamulated fortunes—and expccted to manifest ths ssflao skill and Sbiiity that have mads their parents successful; and when tboy fail, as they arc very likely to; do, tbeir parents are disappointed and grieved. Listen to one of these disappointed parents : " I started in the world without a dollar, and without a friend to help roe. I was a shepherd's boy, and then a plough boy; and t have worked many a day with the sbovel and pick. I had very little education, and that I C4btaHied at nigbtschools, whilel was Saming my own living,' My eons have possessed every facility for making themselves good scholars. 1 have kept them at the best of schools, and allowed nothing to iotorfere with the prosecation oi their studies. Tbey, have bad ample means for starting in business also; but, instead of cairying jj on successfully, as I had done, in a few years their business was wound up, and they were broken merchants. I am ashamed of them, and discouraged helping them. They will never be good for anything.*"" b« ..C■D « w* « I' Does it over oecnr to tbeaa disappointed, complaining fittbera, that tbeir own basinsss eduoation is superior to that of their children, just i« those particnlara in whioh tbey have imagined it inferior ? They (these fathers) hav? been educated by the pressure of straitened circumstances.— The secret of their success is tbe fact, that they rtarted in the world without a dollar. It tells as the school in whioh they were da«at«J It ia tbe wkool in which moat successful men are educated. In this school they have been taught self-reliance, the valus of money, habits of application to business, perseverance in what they undertske, and caution in business transactions ; and, at the same, they have been taught to ignore idleness, love of ease, and expensive, artificial wants. Their 'Whole education has tended to prepare them to snoessd in basinets, requiring oare, economy, perseverance, and indefatigable labor. Tlk« whole development of their minds baa been ia this direction; and from tbe very forpe of circumstances, active business is their element. They have always been tbeir own financiers, and tbey understand the matter. They have worked with their own hands, and they know what to expect of their laborers, and when a piece of work is thoroughly done. Men thus educated, and largely endowed by nature, aro and must continue to be tbe active business men of our country. They projeot and oenstruct our railroads; tbey build our iron ahips and our ocean steamers;, tbey establish manufactories, open our coal minea, and oonduet the commerce of the world— work calling for tbe highest order of talent. Tbey are educated business men, educated by their circumstances, and their education is the vety best they could hsvo , bad for tbeir business. Early mental cultivation, and instruction in sciencc and philosophy, wottld have expandod their minds in certain directions, and open to them sources of happiness to which they are n«iw strangers, but it would not neees' arily have increased their business efficiency. Their eduostioo in tho eohool of adversity* and of poverty, is the basif of tboir success. That which they .imagine, stood in tbe way of tbeir suooess, and seriously impeded tbeir progress, was , tbeir wspira. tiaa : reared in affluence, where all self-denying labor is ignored and . self-gratification is sought, educated as tbey take pride in educating their children, Would have been just as weak and inefficient as they now condeivc their children to be. ~ , n. hotel, pittstok. pa.— "Xi GEO BOB LAZARUS, Proprietor.

The truth was that an outsider could onlj have discovered the marriage to have been one of peeuliar interest from the snatches of feminine gossip that met the ear,in which smallsized adjeetives were profusely employed.

One morning, some of 6nr Soldiers went to the boase of a wea'thy citizen rebel,) to purchase apples. The lady replied that she would not take ottt money in payment, nor wowld she sell to " Fad." This blooked tbe game, and the large pile of fine apple* iaDthe «elhr remained antouched. But aa idea struak one of tbe boys, and he resolved to hare some apples by strategy. The general had given orders that nothing in the bouse should be molested ; hence strategy must be resorted to.— One of the soldiers was stripped of bis uniform arid clothed' in the seccsh garb of ' butternut." A small pile of confederate shinplasters in his pocket properly prepared him for tbe enterprise. Two soldiers with fixed bayonets, marched him to the kind lady's home as a prisoner. Tbe prisoner then told his tale of suffering, not only of himself, bat of his companions and prisoners. Tbe good lady sympathized deeply with him, and sold a bushel of applea for a fitly cent sbin plaster. The prisoner shouldered tbe apples, and the gourd marehod him into camp. The strategy worked, and the boys are now doing a thriving business with fifty cent shin plasters, and manufactured prisoners, to the complete conquest of tho rebel apple pile, llow long before tbe old lady will " smell a rat" is jet to be seen." HUFFOBD HOUSE, PITT8TON, PA.— ' ■ HBXBY HUFFOBD, Proprlator. Jm. 1, 1M4. GEO. W. BR; GROCERS, RD * CO., Br N. 9- »• i Men of wealtb, who hare made tbeir own fortunes, and raised their families in ! affluence, do not always make due allowance, for the want of practical business talent, on the partr of their sons. Thoy educate them carefully and diligently«at' home, and at the boarding school. Nothing is allowed to interfere with their studies. When at home, :they have servants to wait on them constantly ; and when from home, tfasy have money to purchase, all needed attention. Tbey hates never bean taught to labour, bat, pn tbe contrary, tbey have imperceptibly, as the result of their training, imbued tho idea that. manual labor is, in some Sense, degrading. Sons thus educated, are stafted'in busines#—the very same in which their parents have nocamulated fortunes—and expccted to manifest ths ssflao skill and Sbiiity that have mads their parents successful; and when tboy fail, as they arc very likely to; do, tbeir parents are disappointed and grieved. Listen to one of these disappointed parents : " I started in the world without a dollar, and without a friend to help roe. I was a shepherd's boy, and then a plough boy; and t have worked many a day with the sbovel and pick. I had very little education, and that I C4btaHied at nigbtschools, whilel was Saming my own living,' My eons have possessed every facility for making themselves good scholars. 1 have kept them at the best of schools, and allowed nothing to iotorfere with the prosecation oi their studies. Tbey, have bad ample means for starting in business also; but, instead of cairying jj on successfully, as I had done, in a few years their business was wound up, and they were broken merchants. I am ashamed of them, and discouraged helping them. They will never be good for anything.*"" b« ..C■D « w* « I' Does it over oecnr to tbeaa disappointed, complaining fittbera, that tbeir own basinsss eduoation is superior to that of their children, just i« those particnlara in whioh tbey have imagined it inferior ? They (these fathers) hav? been educated by the pressure of straitened circumstances.— The secret of their success is tbe fact, that they rtarted in the world without a dollar. It tells as the school in whioh they were da«at«J It ia tbe wkool in which moat successful men are educated. In this school they have been taught self-reliance, the valus of money, habits of application to business, perseverance in what they undertske, and caution in business transactions ; and, at the same, they have been taught to ignore idleness, love of ease, and expensive, artificial wants. Their 'Whole education has tended to prepare them to snoessd in basinets, requiring oare, economy, perseverance, and indefatigable labor. Tlk« whole development of their minds baa been ia this direction; and from tbe very forpe of circumstances, active business is their element. They have always been tbeir own financiers, and tbey understand the matter. They have worked with their own hands, and they know what to expect of their laborers, and when a piece of work is thoroughly done. Men thus educated, and largely endowed by nature, aro and must continue to be tbe active business men of our country. They projeot and oenstruct our railroads; tbey build our iron ahips and our ocean steamers;, tbey establish manufactories, open our coal minea, and oonduet the commerce of the world— work calling for tbe highest order of talent. Tbey are educated business men, educated by their circumstances, and their education is the vety best they could hsvo , bad for tbeir business. Early mental cultivation, and instruction in sciencc and philosophy, wottld have expandod their minds in certain directions, and open to them sources of happiness to which they are n«iw strangers, but it would not neees' arily have increased their business efficiency. Their eduostioo in tho eohool of adversity* and of poverty, is the basif of tboir success. That which they .imagine, stood in tbe way of tbeir suooess, and seriously impeded tbeir progress, was , tbeir wspira. tiaa : reared in affluence, where all self-denying labor is ignored and . self-gratification is sought, educated as tbey take pride in educating their children, Would have been just as weak and inefficient as they now condeivc their children to be. ~ , n. hotel, pittstok. pa.— "Xi GEO BOB LAZARUS, Proprietor.
