In the forest of Tartary, and in South Amer.

are herds of 500 or Goo which, being i'll pre.
pared for fighting, or indeed, for any resistance
and knowing that their safety is flight, when
they slept, appoint one in rotation, who acts as
sentinel, while the rest are asleep. If a man
approaches, the sentinel walks towards him at

tered from coming near if the man continues

simple as 1t is. So a horse, belonging to a
smugger at Dover, used to be laden with run

the rendezvous. When ,he deserted soldier

sell in the ditch, and when discovered would

The Garden..IIOt.Reds,

Within few years, since horticulture has
begun to take ITS proper place, not only as
a science but as part of the bushes, Of
every farmer, (although it is yet very far
from being fully appreciated hot-beds have
been introduced as the best means, not only
of furnishing supply Of early vegetables
for the table, but also of starting such as it
desirable to have planted out as early as is
consistent with safety from our late spring
frosts. OF this class are cabbages, tomatoes,
and indeed if we'll managed and not bro't
forward so early as to require planting
out before the temperature Of the earth and
air is fit for the purpose, almost every vege-
table usually grown in the garden. Inde-
pendent of the value that may be attached
to the hot bed as forwarding vegetables for
the table, the manure used for the bed when
mixed with the earth that is always upon il,
forms an excellent and thoroughly rotted
manure or compost for the garden, free from
weeds and insects, the seeds aud eggs of
which have been destroyed by the process OF
fermentation and heating, the mass is Obliged

are not now writing for the scientific gardner
or horticulturist, but for the farmer; and in
describing a hot-bed it must be one, both in
its cost and construction, within the reach OF
limited skill and means. We, therefore,
gladly avail ourselves of the following draw
ings and descriptions furnished by friend,
of one erected by himself, and which we
know answered every end expected from
such constructions.

The Rising GeneratiOn,

We once "viSited" country school in
Pumpkinville, kept by Mr.. Obadiah Snooks
between clump of alder bushes and noted
frog pond.-The object of our visit was, of
course, to see what progress the "rising &C.
ncration' was making in the walks Of lite
nature and science; and We can assure the
reader that we came away higly gratIfed and
much more amused.
Having seated our dignifcd self in the
maskdr's arm chair, we threw one leg over
the other-lookcd as serious as psalm book,
and waited for the first exhibition.
Fifth class take their places to read"
was tho grand signal for an attack on our
gravity; at which command out scampcred
into the middle of the floor an interesting
looking lot of urchins, truly ! unwashed,
unsllorn and uncombcd was the general as
pect. After they had writhed, twisted and
sauirncd through the reading of their mono
syllabcs, came on the spelling! Tim Tit
mouse, whose tow frock and check apron
ornamcntcd the foot of the class, was ''bust.
ter" at spelling. Witness his efforts:
"Timo,hy, spell hoar.'
al, o, e, no, a, y, ax-hoc-a1e."
"Thc next" &c.
"Toc the mark, Timothy, and spell goat.
&C, o, go, j, t, lt-go it,"
Next came class in parsng.
Master reads. "Boys are less studiou
than girls. Iclabod, parse boys.'
"Boys is an indefinite articlc-impcrativ,
mood, singular tense, objective case, ant
agrees witt, gHis."
''gve your rule"
"Conjunctions always connect sexes an,
all kinds of gendcrs.
We sat as composedly as key of oyster
all the while they were committing an assault
and battery upon poor Lindley Murray, AM
never uttered a word in his defence.
"Class in geography" was the next move
"What are the chief productions of Con
nccticutw
"Onlons, red flannel sassengcrs and wood
en- clocks,' cried a furry faced gosin frol
Il back scat.
We then began to think about maxim
tracks; but Mr.. Snooks said he should lik
to have us hear his first class rcad-and S
we halted. A chapter in the New Tcs,amcn
was sclcctcd-and all went on smoothly an
clOqucn,ly till some Johnny Raw come TO
certain verse which he rendered thus: al

We grabbed our hat, and shot out Of til
school house like streak; and have eve
since kept clear of those places where the
