ORIGIN OF THE SCYTHE MANUFACTURE, Mr. Ebenezer Tisdale, of Lebanon, Ct. commenced the scythe making business in America, about the year 1735. From Boston one of his scythes was sent to Eng- dand, as remarkable for the manner in which he turned the back. The scythes after- following :-
wards imported from England were made in the same style For about forty years

LIVE PEACEFULLY WITH ALL.
All are liable to err; and those who are tthe most guilty, are frequently the first to censure others .- They who bear the least from friends, are most inclined to provoke It would seem that men might learn wisdom experience of the past, and labor to pro- "vent; unkind words, bickerings, and quar- irels. When they see the misery that has been produced by "trifles light as air," use a harsh word, throw out a base insinu- ation, or show a revengeful look.
Mankind should live like members of one family, and labor to promote the welfare of each. Instead of picking out blemishes in your friends, and denouncing their pro- ceedings, how much better to dwell on their virtues and kindness! If they uninten- `tionally wrong you, instead of flaring up, and showing your spite with harsh words, vor doing them an injury, reflect that they ihave done you many favors; how many times they have visited you in sickness, sympathized in your sorrow, and when they had a rarity, shared with you and your children! Reflecting thus, would dis- arm you of every unkind and revengeful feeling, and you could not find it in your- heart to do them an injury. When the temper is roused, how common it is to for-

waving his broom, as if to sweep the dust from off the stars, he blew a shrill trumpet, from which issued the following:

At the sound of these startling words, the people either fled, as it were, for their lives, or stood in mute astonisment, struck dumb at this unexpected arrival. He never pries into other peoples' affairs. He detests eves- dropping as among the most disgraceful of crimes. He never slanders an acquain- tance.

Not wish- ing this little "EAGLE" to be behind the Age, we have concluded to frame a story "that takes the shine off," froin everything in this line; and shall take for our Tarl, the disposed person, to create consternation and fearful doubts.
However, so great was the desire to im- prove the flying moments, that the party soon re-commenced their "merry dance, " and endeavored to drive all thoughts of this mysterious personage from their minds.
The evening passed quickly and joyful- At the hour of midnight, a man, dress- his appearance in the hall, and without much ceremony, offered himself to dance A rush was made, and the unfortunate with a young lady.

The night passed, followed by a morning as pleasant as the evening previous. Un- til the sun had began to gild the eastern sky, with tints richer than those of the rain- bow, the assembly had remained in statue quo, expecting the flying moments but fore- told of their coming dissolution.
The party now lost no time in making for home, and circulating accounts of that mysterious evening.
In a short time, the inhabitants of the town had armed themselves, and com- menced searching the building, in breath- less silence. The hall and drawing rooms were searched first. Nothing was there, save the garb which had been thrown off by that mysterious intruder. After look- ing into every nook and corner of the build- ing, nothing remained unexplored, save the cellar. Torches were now obtained, and the people were descending, when the cry of ''Here is Blood!" was reiterated by an hundred voices.
Ere they had time to trace the drops of others, few comparatively, thought it a blood, their torches were suddenly extin- piece of imposition, practised by some ill-
