We observe that quite numlKT of onr exchanges have of lat- adopted tho method ol showing up delinquents by publishing thim, gener ally characterizing them by the popu lar, if somewhat extravagant, and cer tainly intrant, appellation of "dead beat." This is a decidedly summary proceeding, but can it be raid to l.c un just ? A man may not rightfully re fuse to pay any debt that he fairly con tracts, and from the product of which lie derives benefit; but it has always scimed to ui that there are some obli gations which make an especially strong demand upon one's honor and inti-grity, and among these we place proininuitly the debt to the newspaper publisher. The man who for a twelve month receives the newspaper into his family, deriving therefrom lor himself, his wife and his children the weekly fi-ast of intellectual culture and enjoy ment uhichithas cost so much labor and care to provide, and ref us 8 to pay for it, is the very meanest of cheat", and richly deserves to be shown up. There is no other article that a man buys for which he pays so little, in pro portion to the service rendered, as lor the newspaper, and it is as much a ne cessity in every well ordered and prop rely provided houehould as in any thing that contributes to the comlort and sustenance of the physical parts of our being. While, thereloie, we may pity and commiserate the man who has not the good sense and the small lib erality to take a paper, we must des-pi-c thr one who, feeling its necessity and knowing its benefit, defrauds the publisher out of the pitiful sum he asks tor the good he does, and we cannot bnt feel that the punishment if pun ishment it be is mild that slops at simple publishing him to the world. Printing Gaultc A Canute Wet Ncuse Waxted. A love for dogs is an amiable qnality, but the author of the following adver tisement (quoted by Lord Milton in Britith Sportt and Pastime) carried it, perhaps to excess: "Wanted, a Nnrse.

William H. Dal!, a gentleman ho resided nearly three years in Alaska, as an attiehc of the Smithsonian Institute, ia ua'uinTon, traveling over tne country and gathering information up on its resonrces, tnns corrects the very Rros errors ol Gen. Thomas' report, as annosneed in the telegraphic summary recrrily pnMi!hcd: Firet "The sending of revenue, offi cers a useless expense." There is no dnnhl that officers of a certain class, whitl unfortunately has been largely represented in Alaska, seldom add much to the revenue ol anybody except JhcsBclvcs, But there is no manner ol question that iho Government can add $200,000 to its income, by a prop er tax, collected by honest officers, on the Island of St. Paul and Su George alone; Irom the fur-eal fisheries there. Sccot.d ''The territory was a bur- den to Russia, who held it at great ex- tx-nsr." rbis is quite the revcrso of truth. The territory from 1709 to 1802 was hdd by ibt Russian American Comparv, who paid to lhe Crown, from iSll to 1651, two millions rubles taxes. The capital of the Company in 18G2 wig 1,592,328 rubles, of which 787,745 hibled were reserved for cmer- gr-ncies from profits. The gross income of thc Company, from furs alone, frofh 1841 to 1802 was 20,805,681 silver ru bles (abnt seventy-five cents each). From,17l9 to 1802, the stock, exclu sive of ill expenses and taxes, paid from five to ten per cent dividends an nally. During a great part of the time thc southern coast, from the Stik een river to the Portland Canal, was leased by the Company to the Hudson Bay Company for a certain amount of prmiMon furnished annually. Besides the dividmds, the Company contribut ed annually to the churches in the col ony ?6,000; to school, $5,000 ; to hos pitalK.gn.000; and a small amount for 1 .00DS. coala O0 Pald or ,nn(Jed into a H-nsioi.stonged servant of the Com-l,bond.bc,annSta lower rato of interest pany.

Third With reenrd to agriculture, grain cannot be raided, but among the nnmi nrruinoi. nr ti. rm.,.n.- f the small gardens of the post were 170 casks of potatoes, 150 casks of turnips and 189 casks of berries. I have my self eaten turnips in March which were gathered the previous September, in lat. G3 deg., 30 min., on the Northern Sound. Jvndiac, Unalalka, and the pentnii!a of Kenai, arc well suited for grazing purposes, and cattle have done well there. The business of the Terri tory, it is true, can be carried on by a small number of white men, assisted I by tho natives. Emigration is not likely to take place in large numbers, and it would be folly to" establMi a Territorial jjovernment at present. Alaska contains, beides the fihcries and fnr trade, the best marble, timber and coal on the Pacific coast. There is no timber on Pngct Sound to com pare with the yellow cedar of Alaska, for ship-building, and the latter is more easy of access and abundant in quantity. Times.

Seaatar Corbett'i FaBdias; BilL Mr. Corbelt's bill to f aad the aatkmal debt is the best that has yet appeared in the public prints. It looks plausi ble that oar debt might be funded at these rates. Colnty't Jlcviev, after showing that the debt could not be funded at a low rate of interest, says: "Senator Corbctt, of Oregon, is the first legislator who has contributed to the discussion a ray of light. His pro position may not be original It is at any rat o new to ns, and strikes us as a possible if not indeed, an easy way out of the difficulty. He proposes to issuo ono thousand millions in thirty-five year bonds, payable in coin, and not taxable in any form, principal orincomq tho bonds for the first three warn to bear 6 per cent per annum, for the 5cxt.8lx ycars 5 Pcr cont P" annum, for tho following sir years 4 1-2 per cent per annum, and for the following j ears per cent per annum. Tho intcrist for first 15 years will thereby average 5 per cent pcr annum, or for ine wnoie time oi 35 years it would average 4 43-1 00 per cent per annum. "It is contented by Senator Corbctt that the bill offers an inducement to thoso holding five-twenty bonds to ac- jcept thi bond in exchange for thoso tney now noid. it would give the bondholders the same rate of interest as they now get for the next three years free from tax, and a fair rate for tuc following twclvo years, and by tho expiration of that time the bond would find a place in our trust and saving in stitu'.ions and in foreign markets, where foar per cent, free from all tax, wonld be considered a good interest.

" This is where Mr. Greeley fails as a financial authority. Mr. Corbctt, on the contrary, is a practical business man, who knows that neither Ameri cans nor Europeans will bny bonds for any other reason than to make money. If by his plan ho can begin a substan tial reduction of the interest within three years, ho will have done the country a signal service, Mr. Greeley to tho contrary not withstanding.

Tho skin of an animal, whether cow, calf, colt, or horse, that dies on the farm is worth more at homo than at the tanner's. Cut it into narrow strips, and shave off the hair with a sharp knife before tho Kitchen tire, or in your workshop, on stormy days and evenings. You may make them soft by rubbing. A raw hide halter-strap an inch wide, will hold a horse better, and last longer, than an inch rope. It is stronger than hoop iron and more durable, and may bo used to hoop dry casks and boxes, and for hinges. Try it on a broken thill, or any wood work that has been split. Put it on wet, and nail fast. Thin skins mako tho best bag-strings in the world. A rawhide rope is a good substitute for a chain. It is valuable to mend a bro ken link in a trace-chain. For some purpose it is best to nse it in its natural state. For other purpose it may bo dressed soft. Facts for Farmers. The Best Tmso rx ttje Woeld. Many recipes for remedies camo to us, with the assuranco that they are the "best thing in the world," for this or that disease. It is astonishing, tho number of people who have tried every thing in tho world and found out tho best. We very rarely pubtish any remedies, and these only of the most simple kind. There is altogether enough "dosing" with drugs on tho slightest provocation without our encouraging it. When we see the dangerous rem edies published by some of our cotem poraries, we pity those who try them. Every intelligent housekeeper has a few things at nand to nse in such in dispositions as will not yield to good nursing and dieting as well as in sud den emergencies. Doctoring, as such, had better be left to those who under stand it. American Agriculturist. Boiled Wheat foe Cows. In many sections wheat, at the present time, is thc cheapest grain that can be fed to stock. We have found boiled wheat excellent food for milch cows. When wheat costs less than $1.25 per bushel, give tho cows from two to four quarts each per day. It will pay. It need not be ground. Put it in a kettle and cover it with water, add a little meal, and boil until it bursts open. If the pigs get a little of the same article it will not hart them. lb.
