Beef is never fit to be eaten in steaks until a

MELONS. "A writer in the Richmond En-.

the greatest profusion of melons, whereas, I'M
til lately could not raise enough on four or
FIVE times the same space Of rich land. dig
square holes ten feet apart, each way, for wa
termolons, and about six feet for muskmelons =;
for the first, two feet deep, for the last, eight.
cen inches deep, and eighteen inches wide.
The roots ran but a short distance in hori-
zortal direction, but striking deep into the
EARTH they are secure from the effects of
drought; and by filing the holes half full of
manure, and finishing them to few inches
above the surface with mixture of manure
and SOIL or which ia better, composition OF
vegetables, and other substances, commonly to
be met with around out houses and pig pens, a
depth of soil, of fine and light filth is formed.
| have not attempted to raise pumpkins in this
way, but have no doubt that it will answer for
them"
The same plan may be adopted with edvan-
tago and economy, as to manure, in raising
Lima beans, especially in cold situations.

From the "Gens. :"

It's night, It's night the hour of hours,
When Love lies down, with folded wings,
BY Psyche i'll her starless bowers,
And down his fatal arrow filings :
Those bowers whence not a sound is.hoard,
Save odly from the bridal bird,
Who midst that utter darkness sings
Sweet music Ike the running Springs;
This her burden soft and clear
" Love is here Love is here p
lis night the moon is on the stream,
Bright spells are on the soothed sea,
And Hope, the Child, is gone to dream
VI pleasures-which may never be
And now is haggard Care asleep
Now doth the widow Sorrow smile
And slaves are hushed in sumber deep,
Forgetting grief and toll awhile
What sight can fiery morning show
To shame the stars, or pale moonlight
what bounty can the day bestow
Like that which falls with gentle night
Sweet lady, sing not Alright?
Oh turn and tell me-for the day
Is faint and fading fast away;
And now comes back the hour,of hours;
When Love his lovelier mistress seeks,
Signing, Ike winds 'mongst evening flowers,
Until the maiden Silence speaks
Fair girl, methinks-nay hither turn
Those eyes, which midst their bushes burn >
MethinkS, at such a time ones heart
Can better bear both sweet and smart
Loves look,-the frst,-which never dieth
Or death--which comes when beauty fie.h-
When strength is slain, when youth is past,
And all, save truth, is lost at last

WHOLESOME ADvIcE. Begin life with the
least show and the least expense possible you
may at pleasure increase both, but you cannot
easily diminish them. Do not think your es-
tate your own, while any man can call upon
you for money and you cannot pay; therefore
begin with tmorous psrsiuony. Let il be your
first care not to be in any mans debt. Resolve
not to be poor, ,chdterer you haze, spend less
Poverty is great enemy to human happiness,
it certainly destroys liberty, and it makes some
virtues impractcable, and others extremely

The FORCE OF IMAGINATION. A Luc-
cheese peasant, shooting sparrows, saw his
dog attacked by a strange and ferocious
mastlR He tried to separate the animals,
and received bite from his own dog,
which instantly ran off through the fields.
The wound was healed in few DAYS, and
the dog was not to be found; and the peas
ant, after some time, began to feel symp-
toms of nervous agitation. He conceived
that the dog, from disappearing, was mad,
and within a day or two after this idea had
struck him. he began to feel symptoms of
hydrophohia. They grew hourly moro vio-
lent; he raved, and had oil the evidences of
the most violent distemper. As he was
lying, with the door open, to let in the last
ar that ne was to breathe, he heard his dog
bark. The animal ran up to the bed side,
and troiIcked about the room. It was clear
that he, at least, was il perfect health.
The PEASANTS mind was relieved at the in
slant; he got up with renewed strength
dressed himself plunged his head in ba-
son Of water, and TINS refreshed walked
into the room to his astonished family. The
statement is made in memoir by Profess
sor Rarbantini; and it is not improbable
that many attacks of disease SO strongly
dependent on the imagination, might be
equally cured by ascertaining the state of
the animal by which the bite was given.

Cows. Pure water, it is stated in the Do.
nestle Encyclopedias, is an essential article for
cows. DR.. Anderson says, he knew man who
acquired great wealth by attending to this mat
ter, and one of his principal discoveries was
the importance of having continued supply of
the purest water that could be obtained for his
cows, and he would on no account permit a sin
gle animal to set a foot into it, nor allow it to
be tainted even by the breath of animals.
Iniamed teats should be washed with two
drachms of sugar Of lead in quart of water.
Should tumors appear, apply common warm
mash with bran, with little lard.
To prevent COWS from sucking their own
milk we are informed that rubbing the teats
frequently with moist fGtid cheese, has proved
an etfectual remedy.

RAISING CALVES. Calves should not be suf.
fered to eat any grass the first year and It Is
cheaper to keep theirs shut up and feed them
as the land, sufficient to pasture one, will well
produce hay sufficient to keep TWO calves
through the year, and pay the ex pense of cult
walton, and one years growth will certainly be
added to the cattle.
Mortimer, Gan English writer says, "The
best calves for bringing up, are those calved in
April, May, and June because it is seldom
that those which come later acquire sufficient
vig"r to support them during the inclemency
of the following winter; and the cold causes
them to droop, and many Of them to die
Much oftenor may this be expected TO be the
case in this country, where the cold in winter
is so much more intense. Those which como
earlier are preferred in this country, being
more hardy, and better able to endure the rigor
Of the first winter. But the cost of rearing
them is greater. All things considered, April
NAV be as suitable n time any.
When calves are weaned, they should not be
suffered to be with their dams till fail. Neither
should they be pastured within sight or hearing
of them. 1t viii cause them TO neglect their
:eedng, and they will not forget their habit Of
sucking their dams.-.Neac England FdrmCr.

SATuRE. The appearance of the double rinc
! to the inhabitants Of the globe of Saturn must
be inconceivabiy splendid and magnificent, va
| rying IN appearance according to the situation
IN which 1t is beheld. From the regions sew
eral degrees distant from each pole, til. nhab-
! itants cannot possibly see this grand spectacle,
| beng below their horizon. In approaching the
latitude Of 60 degrees, it must be first seen as
bright segment of disc, just emerging above
the horizon, of tho brightness of the morning
twilight nearer the equator, as vast lumin-
Gus arch,-and when contemplated from the
middle zone of the planet, bright baud would
be observed crossing the zenith, and terminal
ing in the eastern and western points of the
! horizon. Hence, the glory of the celestial can
opy during Saturnan night, must, to that
planet, indeed, be far exceeding what we behold
from our earth, particularly from those places
! where the ring can be surveyed in its concave
and convex form, stretching across the frma-
ment, and apparently resting on tho verge of
! the horizon above and beneath the arch, the
same consultations which ornament our sky
would be observed shining with subdued splen-
dor while, at different distances and positions
without the ring, would be seen, gliding swift
w. the satellites of saturn. either rising setting
or in the meridian; others entering into the
shadow of the orb, or emerging from it. each
exhibiting every variety Of phase-from the
delicate crescent to the milunar-from a
gib5ous to fu-orbed brightness
Does such beauty and design beam upon a.
desert, and shed its radiance upon realms of
solitude and silence,-to be witnessed by no in
teectual eye in those vast regions, and seen
only in miniature by a few individuals from this
remote and comparatively minute earth -
Doubtless, from such glorious abode, the voice
OF gratitude and alteration continually ascends
to the great Creator for such ratinue, bv
which its distance from tho sun is to be amply
compensated.
