THE ROBBER CHIEF.
"A Story Of The Seventeenth Cenfui

"A Story Of the Seventeenth Century.
In the year 1852 the Black Forest was in
tested with poachers. When game was scarce
they levied contributions on travellers and
having eascd them Of their property, they re-
turned to conceal themselves in The woods.
Robbers and poachers are almost syhonomous
in fact man who steals game at night, ann
ed TO the teeth, is seldom backward in muir
dering any who oppose him, and, when game
is wanting, 1t is easy to replace IL by purse
of gold, and with this advantage, that there is
no need OF going to market 10 dispose Of the
spoil. Besides, It is mere drawing a trigger
to either case. The chief Of these maraudors
was young man OF good family, born at AS
chafienburg. LbertnIsm had hurried hun
into crime. In love with young grl who
had been refused to his address, he resolved
To carry her Off and to avoII the pursuit Of

young men, who had already taken the Forest
for their abode. Determined and intrepid they
they soon became the terror Of the game keep
ers and woodsmen, who speedily quoted y
an unseen towing piece, whenever an att1c X
on these lawlcss men was medItated. After "a
time no one dared TO pass through the Fouest;
or even to travel alone IN its ncighborhood al
ter dark.
Hans Rudinet who had become chief Of the
band, soon grew tired Of the Young creature
for whom he had first adopted the profession
Of a robber the gentleman loved variety, and

little below the earth. The advantages to be
derscd from this plan We Will briefly enuncr-
ate:
/. The expense Of laying floor and keep
ing it IN repair is saved. 2. Animals will be
warmer IN winter and cooler in stimmcr--ircc
Of frost and flies. g. The ground being pro-
yided by nature for ANIMALS to stand on,is bet
ter for their hoois than plank, and they ME IN

T. The labor of cleaning out the stable rs saw

scattered and exposed to frost and heat. u.
valuable opportunity for max ing manure rs al
forded, by throwing into the stable, iof litter,
the SCI apings of the door yard, leaves, straw,
poor hay, &c; the liquid part OF the manure
not being lost g. manure, while constantly
under the animals feet is kept from overhead
ing by fermentation, and is much more valuable
than that which is shoveled out of the stable,
and frozen and thawed and washed and dried,
or burnt by fermentation. 6. much larger
quantity, as well as better quality of manure
is obtained from the same stock, kept IN a sta
bic with no floor.
The Caltlvator recommends that n "horse's
cellar be about ten feet square, that the ma
nure may not rise too high before you are ready
to remove it," 1t is necessary, both for the
manure heap, and the comfort of the animals
and yourself when you wish to enter the sta
BILE, that sufficient quantity of litter be KEEP,
constantly on hand, to keep the stable dry
Horses will never kick each other if their heads
are tied apart
Our nei ghbor, George 'Giddings, Of Yves
Hartford, who by the bye, is one of the hes
practical farmers IN this country, has adopted
this plan for some years. He assures us tina
he obtains twice or thrice as much manure a
his neighbors get from the same stock. III
says he would not have floors in his stables
even if he could have them furnished and hi
stables cleaned out gratuitouslv. In short, hi
experience fully confirms all the advantages
above enumerated. AS it is saving both labo
and expence, as well as cause of increase II
wealth--as it offers so many sources of profit
with no counterbalancng loss-we may rea
sonebly expect our farmers will try stable
with no floors Hart. Cour.

OLD WINTERS SOL1fOQUY
by y. r. ARNELL

by d. R. ARNELL.
Old Winter jumped from his icy bed,
And thus to himself said he,
aha! old autumn at last is dead,
The red leaves are lying around his head,
lie left all his business to me" he said,
"Now what's TO be done1 let's see
He's rpened the fruits on the ieemng plain,
lie said he went his way,
BE rich green leaves, and the waving grain,
He's tinged with golden hue again,
And the farmer has reaped his toll and pain,
Now what can do but play"
Old winter passed on his robe OF snow,
A troicksome wight is he;
And he said to himself at last, "I'll go,
And whistle along as a sort Of beau
For those ladies who'd like a better, you know
But have to take ZIP with me-"
Old winter INDUCED in his scenes of bliss,
Till he fairly shook with glee
"Oh!'' says he TO himself, "what a capital kiss
III have on the cheek Of that pert young miss,
Till her bushes are rcd as a lose at this,
What matter is that to me-
Der hill and DER dale ! III ride along,
And wither the heritage green;
And sing snatch of my favorte song,
As rave and rattle the boughs among,
Till all the people shall say I've come,
In my sparkling car, ween.

AGRICULTURAL.

WATER FOR STocK.-Stock should be abun =,
dainty supplied with pure water. If possible
there should be water in the yard, but every
farmer is not well situated in this respect
Therefore more attention is necessary TO see
that every creature is accommodated.
The snow often blows into the water and
covers it over before all the animals have got
a supply; and added to these evils some are
rather despotlc in the pentitude of their pow
or, and drive the weaker ones from the water,
even after they have satisfied their own appc-
titcs. All these things need much attention
that no animal may suffer for want of the me-
cessaries ofli Even where water is in the
yard, it requires some attention to see that the
weaker animals are not kept from the water
by the strong and arbitrary.
Some persons think that while sheep have
snow they do not need water, but this is a
great mistake; they cannot, or will not, Stake
their thirst by eating snow, and no person,
who is aware Of the large quantity of water
animals require while eating dry fodder, will
suppose that they will readily eat snow enough
TO supply this large quantity,or that this meth
cd if followed 10 a sufficient extent to quench
THIRST. is conducive TO the health and comfort
Of animals.
When man prefers n snow ball TO a glass
of good water, then, and not TIL then, will
sheep eat snow when they can have conven.
lent access to water Their choice when both
methods are before them, shows plainly which
is the better way. In taking care Of sheep
near a trough Of good water, we have observ-
ed they would go and drink several times in
a day, and not taste OF snow, though plenty
was around them Of the best quality.
Again we have observed that sheep in the
winter season, would go to a great distance
/ for water after being driven or called TO IT a
4 few times This should be done with mode
ration that the tmld animals may not be fright
/ enod II should be done when no cattle are
out to disturb them Yankee Farmer.

VISIONS or THE DEAD.

ny THE PRAIRIE BARD.
Oh let me dream no more,
Offorms that bring, while lowering DER my head,
The memories OF yore-
The early anguish for the sauted dead.
Close up the fountain deep,
Whose troubled waters lash this stricken soul,
Peace let their tumult sleep
A little space, oh bid them cease to roll
fearful lot and lone,
To hold communion in the silent night
With beings long since flown
Beyond the boundary of mortal sight.
Sadly they hover round,
With CHASTITY eyes, and lips Of death they tell,
No uttered word, no sound
May chase the gloom and break the sumb'r spell
The shade of death, the mould
That fills the narrow house, are seated there,
Their breath is damp and cold,
AS the chill spray upon the wave, Despair!
Let horrors wild caress,
AT waking, s,ernly Irvine my spirit DER,
And all of wretchedness-
But let me dream--oh, let me dream no more!

1ovEN IN CATTLE.--In a late conversation
with Capt James Cooper, of Haddonfeld, he

Ima drawing it tight, and making fast the
ends over the head Just behind the horns, this
will cause the beast to endeavor to rid itself
of the inconvenience, by chewing the band,
and the act Of moving the tongue and Jaws
will open the gullet, and permit the pent-up
air to escape. The efficiency Of the mode
here recommended, was tested a very short
time ago, on valuable COW belonging to the
Captain, by one of his nclghbors, who, finding
her most dangerously affected in this way. in
stantly applied the twisted band Of straw and
in moment the air rushed furiously ont of the
distended stomach, and in few minutes she
was perfectly recovered.
Now, consider your readers indebted to
the Captain for this communication, to an a
mount far more than the value of a years sub

asks every one to do good by communicating

which would be at all likely TO benefit the
