FRENCH CoRDIALs AND RUM BITTERs. The
use of these two articles has been the means of
leading more persons TO intemperance, especially
females, than any other stimulants in existence.
the former from their extreme pleasantness and
seductive sweetness, and the latter under the
plausible pretext of securing or benettting their
health. The use of tonics or bitters in many con-
stitutions, especially at certain seasons, IS I'M
questionable it is the menstrum, therefore, and
not the medicine, which we disposed to COM
bat. 1t is an erroneous impression that the prln-
cipal ingredients used as bitters yield their viz
tues more fully in alcohol or wine than i'll the wa
ter every physician and chemist knows that the
latter is by far the best vehicle for this purpose.
This fact being conceded, we, therefore, as the
firm and unfinchng friends of temperance. as
well as for the other reasons suggested, do most
sincerely recommend the 4" Temperance Bitters, -
prepared by J. P. Whitwell, and advertised in
our columns, in preference TO any other prepara-
ton where alcohol or wine alone employed.
Surely no female at least, who values her health,
and means to maintain her good habits, will hesl-
ate to follow the advice thus gratuitously given
for her benefit, and use this simple decoction in
preference to more stimulating but less salutary
sedatives. All men, especially those of the pub
lie press, who wish we'll to their fellow man, by
giving notorety and currency to these facts, will
thereby essentially serve the great cause for
which we are contendng.-T Mercantile Journal.

MISCELLANE

TRUE TALE OF OLD TINES, In the year
1850, Louisville was collection of huts, huddled
closely together, in order TO diminish the frequent
attacks of the Indians. There was, on the oppo-
site side of the Ohio, where New Albany now
stands, small collection of houses defended by a
long fort.
An understanding existed between the settlers,
on both sides of the river, that they should, by
the firing of swivel, give notice ofthe approach
of the red men, and on hearing such signal they
mutually bound themselves to hurry TO each 9TH
ers assistance.
1t was a dark and stormy night in the fall ofthe
year, when the good citizens of Louisville were
reused from pleasant dreams and refreshing slum
Der, by the sharp report of the swivel of the New
Albany settlement. Every person was instantly
in motion. The river had been raising rapidly for
several days-huge trees were constantly drifting
down, with velocity which almost rivalled the
sweeping rapidly of the Mississippi.
1t was with great difficulty that the little fotil-
la of fiat boats from Louisville stemmed the rap
id current of the river, and effected landing on
the northern bank of the river.
The harder warriors were much astonished at
the death-like stiffness which reigned through the
fort they feared much that all was over, and
that nothing would be left for them except ven
gence for the slaughter of their allies.
They cautiously crept forward in Indian file
suddenly low whisper of the leader caused them
to halt. man was dmly discovered approach
ing in the gloom.
where are the Indians = said fifty men in
hoarse whisper.
Not hereabout, as I know on was the reply.
What the deuce did you fire the swivel for
then 2 said the leader of the Louisville forces.
Well now, that's oudacious queer Why,
we fire for JOY, because child hath been born
unto us, as the Scripture says. It's enough to
fire about, reckon seein that it's the first white
as was ever born on the north side of the Ohio
And SO you thought twas the Indians-ha-ha

AGRICULTURAL.
MANU- RES,

One important branch Of business is to
multiply and to preserve our manuros. Vast
quantities of this important article are wasted for
want Of proper consideration, and while we con-
tnue to raise grain vegetables for the market,
we must pay close attention to this important
subject.
Winter Heaps.-Many yoke up their oxen and
COWS by the neck every night ard let them loose
in the day time to wander at liberty over the farm
or to drop their manure in the highway on their
route tothe brook That which was dropped in
abe barn is thrown out in heaps through the win
dows and is suffered to freeze and to thaw until
most of its strength is gone-the liquid portion
oft being suffered to drain through panks or to
he absorbed by the ca nth which is neyor removed
from underneath the floor
Under such mismanagement there can be lit
tie doubt that one half at least of the winter ma
nure is wasted When cattle are tied in lean
to by the head. they should not stand on Il plank
floor. Loan and coarse litter should he pl,ced
under them, and all which has become STRONGLY
impregnated should be cleared out in the spring,
and new supply introduced in it's stead. Cat
tie kept in this way lie much more comfortably
than on hard floors, and much more manure is
saved.
Cattle Lying Loose.-But the greatest amount
of good manure may be saved in winter by suffer-
ing cattle ofal descriptions to lie loose under the
barns or sheds. More room is required in this
mode, but the expense is not great of providing
an opan shelter for large stock of cattle. The
opening should be on the south side, and in any
cart Of New England, if cattle are kept out ofthe

ToBAcco.-One of the editors of the Morning
Star, paper which abounds in useful hints and
cause of temperance will very rapidly advance,
while tobacco is go much in use Turn which
way we may, and we meet with the use of this
poisonous, filthy, offensive weed Many minis
tiers are excessively addicted TO this practice.
Other men of respectablity pursue the same
course. This sets the example, and multtudes
are found to follow it, Does not the cause OF
temperance require of US all that claim to be
temperance men, to cleanse ourselves wholly and
totally of the filth of tobacco. p

WAR SrEAMEns. Two fine and substantial
war steam ships have just sailed from N. York for
Havana, having been built for the Spanish govern
men,. They can be propelled at the rate Of IA
miles per hour, will carry 20 days fuel, aud have
cost only $500 EACH The steam ship Fulton
construed by our government is about the same
size of the Spanish steamers, and cost $3.50, OOO.-
She can carry only three days fuel, and then her
guards are about 90 inches out ofhe water. SO that
she is utterly unfit for service. The second war
steamer constructed by the U. S. government is not
yet finished, but will cost $5OO,0O0, and it is
thought by many will prove great failure as the

EARLY POTATOES.

The best mode we ever tried to procure early po-
tatoes to spread out those designed for seed on
grass plat in the garden thin that one should not
be upon another-coyer them with horse stable ma
nure three inches thick-then lay boards or slabs
over this to keep ii moist and to prevent the hens
uncovering the potatoes. When the sprouts have
started an inch OF two the potatoes should be care
fully taken up and planted out in hills They will
ripen two weeks sooner than when the seed is taken
directly from the celle:. Boston Cultivator

POETRY



"TVhen the Lord giueh guietaeSs, soho then can
snGke troubie."-JOB,
He giveth quetness-the soul
Reposes fearless on his arm,
Though storms may howl, and pillows roll,
Eternally secure from harm.
When the long train of earths dire ills
The spirits dwelling place invade
When comforts fail, and faith grows dim,
And joys bright ray begins to fade,
And, as our footsteps onward press,
Brers and thorns hedge up our way,
And darkness, like mighty pail,
Shuts out the last faint beam of day,
AS, one by one, the friends depart
Who trod with US the pleasant path,
And darker DER our lonely way,
The tempest gathers in its WRATH
The spirit overwhelmed with wo,
Sinks meath its load of wretchedness,
And longs for death, to set it free
From all its care and WEAKNESS.
But when the Sun of Righteousness
Comes forth, with healing in his rays,
We find his smiles richer gift
Than health, wealth, fame, or length of days
How trifng then doth earth appear
Foes try in vain our peace to wound
Loud as their roar and thunder is,
IT'S to our ears but empty sound.
Let all the heavenly orbs be moved,
And scattered as the rafting hail
The heart that in His promise trusts
Will, not, mid all the tumult quail
Earth's countless ills in vain attack
spirit from earth's bondage free
Faith whispers, Father, euen so:
For thus it seemeth good to Thee II.
