VOSTPSArsee" e THE HURON EXP • SITOR. A Huronite in Dakota. Lotteoon, North Dakota, I April 2.Srd, 1800. r OtaREXPosrreit,—Seeding is fairly well advanced here at present, the great - • part of the wheat being sown and joUle few oats. The weather was rather backward at first as there was a good deal of froat at night. .The last week or Jonas been fine, and work wait pushed forward rapidly. There is a larger &cre- ep being sown this year than in any former year, showing that the people neve some faith in the country yet. The different cdunties have provided geed for those who were unable to get it, ao that the people are mostly all well supplied with seed. We had a splendid ramn. here,coming on thel9th inst., and lasting for the greater pert of three clays, and we may safely say that the ground is damper now than inhas been for the last two or three yeara. People are now looking forward to a bountiful harvest, and that is what ie badly needed, as another year like test year would have a direful effect on the country. Times are very quiet just low, and money very scarce, and not much wonder either, for with the poor trops and high interest (from 12 to 50 per cent) it is enough to ruin any coml.– try,• and I think that I can safely say that if the people in Ontario had as high interest and taxes to pay as we have they esould he just as hard up as we are here at the present time. We had a very hand, cold winter here last winter, and had a good deal more snow than for the two previous winters. Feed was pretty scarce'but still the most of the stock sre infairly good condition. Hay is worth about $6 per ton, and oats about 35 cts. per bushel at the present time. Yours truly, PETER STEWART, Formerly of Grey. lakes. The cuttlefish gives the iepia.

How to Make Money. - There is an old -saying which reads thus: "Lay even a snake's head away seven years, and you'll find a use for it, lf you turn it over once a week in the meantime.' I don't advise you to act accordingly is far as snake's heads are concerned, but there is a wealth- of good -sense in the feeling that prompted this odd say- ing. It means that you will find use for anything, no matter how insignifi- cantand valueless it seems, if you think of it—" turn it over " frequently enough. I ant reminded of this ridiculous old saiing about once a week, on an aver - ear, as I go through this world and notice how people remain poor because they do not improve the advantages within their reach. Having an advan- tage isto good unless you find some way of using it. General Fremont, the famous-" Path- finder," used to tell a pathetic story of a miner who starved to death on the rich- est vein of gold -bearing rock that ever had been discovered in the mineral belt of the Far Weat. There was plenty of gold in the rock—it made twenty for- tunes afterward— but the discoverer didn't know how to get it out, and he was not the kind of man who realized that his brains were given to him to be used, so he actually laid himself down and died of starvation on the very vein •of (parte from which many millions of dollars were afterwards coined. His Ind:was worth a mountain of snake's h de, but he didn't turn it over ;" t is, he did not set himself to think- ing how, when and through whom he could -work it to the best advantage. Most people are a good -deal like him. If they have anything promising, they never tire of talking about it, but when the time comes they are not there. It really seems that some people would rather die than think. When you find therexceptions to this rule, you are likely to be surprised, for they never are the brilliant, dashing -looking -people. The man with thinks seldom looks bril- liant. If you were to go into Mr. Edi- 11On's laboratory in search of the inven- tor, you would never reco grtize him by • hie looks. You would find the moat striking -looking man to be the fellow who does the cemmonest work which re- quires the least thinking. So, I beg you to be what is called " contriving," which means that you should 'think frequently and long, all over and all around, about any property you may have that could be turned to good ac- count. Don't be despondent because some you know have more property or quicker wits. Right here let me wedge in a verse of Scripture, which is well worth rolling over in your mind a great many times: "The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread - to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill, but time and chance happeneth to them ail." Your time and chance will come. Keep your brains ready to make the best of your opportunity. It may -be within your reach now, but if you expect it to -crush into you and make itself known, while your head . is full of something else, you may make up your mind that yoa are going to get left. Old Commodore Vanderbilt used to tell a good story that bears on this point: - _ When I was a youngster," said he, •"a lot l of us farmers' boys on Staten Island had. sail boats, and once in a whilatone of us would make a shilling or two by carrying a passenger to New York. It wasn't much money, but money was so scarce itt those days that all of ns hung around waiting for a job. I hadn't the best boat of the lot—I was- n't the best sailor, either—but, one day .made up:my mind that the boat and ltlY sailing Skill was all the capital I had and that I must get my living out of them some way. It took months of thinking and contriving, but one day, I -went 'along the shore and told every family that thereafter my boat would ttart for New York at certain hours of whether there were any pas - tenors or not. I made a good many trips talene, but in the course of time, my at became a recognised ferry. It was the starter of my line of ocean steam- ers and all the money I made after- ward. I've helped to bury some of the other fellows—owners of better boats— !tea bright fellows too; they didn't leave enough to pay their funeral ex - ?awes. mensemammeennen The Sources of Beautiful Colors.

F. C. Rogers has communicated with Messrs. Livingston as to arranging for a well on their property adjoining the present block. The intention, is, if successful, to erect the buildings near the railway and pipe the brine to the pan. The estimate is $8,000. A joint stock company may take up the matter if Messrs. Livingston do not see fit to handle the undertaking. —The Clinton New Era says: The popular editor of the Brussels Post was a witness in courtat Goderich one day last week. While he was leisurely wait- ing around, he was introduced to some one as, "Mr. Kerr, editor of the Brus- sels Post." "Mb," remarked the gen- tleman ,to whom he was introduced, Tire last editor that was in jail was the Tory one from Brussels, and now they've sent up the Grit one also." -It was some moments before Mr.Kerr could recover self -composure enough to an- swer that he was simply a witness on the prehent occasion. —On Monday- evening of last week, while a business man, of Exeter, was -en- gaged ID posting his books in the back part of his store, he was disturbed by some person or persons throwing stones at the back door, which he took little notice of until one came crashing through the window, when he suddenly made a race for the door and in an instant jerk- ed it open, when lo, and behold! what should meet his gaze but a pail of water attached to a pole which came dashing in on him wetting him considerably. Now, this may be a rich joke for -the perfor- mers but we cannot see where it was much of a joke for the one whom it was perpetrated upon. —The Stratford Herald of last week says : As the two male leaders of the Salvation Arniy were coming up Downie street on Saturday afternoon they were accosted by a drunken fellow who in- sisted on bothering them. The adjective "drunken," by the way is used rela- tively. The fellow was sober enough to have complete use of his limbs'but not sober enough to behave himself. After bothering the upholders of an aggressive religion for a time he snatched a couple of War Crys from one of them and pro- ceeded to tear them up. At that junc- ture the old Adsm got up in the Salva- tion army captain and he knocked the fellow- down. It doesn'talways pay td pick up a Salvationist for a. flat, as the the boys put it. He is just as apt as not to be a reformed pugilist and may only be able to restrain himself up to a cer- tain point, and after that his love of peace will not keep him from punching his tormentor's head. From this day forth the genus tough will probably leave that Salvation army captain alone; not that its in them to respect his manly spirit but because toughs are as a rule cowards at heart.
