Mr.. Foreman and some of his friends

standing on the counter, Mr.. Fore
man said "whose liquor?" "Mine." re-
piled Mr.. Waite, ''help yourself, Fore
man," and Waite filled their glasses.
Foreman proposed the following, to
be drank by them as 4 toast.

with a significant toss of the head.
Waite then threw 4 glass into Fore
mans face, and Foreman struck Wat
lie with a loaded whip. A csufle en-
sued, and Foreman stepped forward
to pick up a board, with which to
stike Waite, when Waite drew his
knife and stabbed him in the back.
Foreman ran round the corner OF the
house. and Waite fired a pistol at him
without effect. Foreman exclaimed,

to a certain class of the community
who are not obliged, as was st. Paul.
"to labour with their own hands," is
all that is absolutely requisite, but to
a much larger portion of the comrau-
nifty, it is Of greater consequence to
know whether they can spin?
1t is of more Importance to a
young mechanic, or a merchant, or
one Of any other class of people who
depend upon their own industry and
exertiops, If he marries a wife 10 have
one who knows how to spin or per-
form domestic duties, than one whose
knowledge does not extend beyond Il
proficiency in literature and the fine
arts.
1t has often been said that the times
are strangely altered; and certain it
is hat the people are. 1t was once
thought honorable TO he constantly
employed in some useful avocation;
but nowadays it is thought more
honorable to be idle. People COM
plain of the high prices of the neces-
snries Of life, and with much truth.
But if the amount of idleness could
be accurately calculated throughout
the community, allowing the drones
half price for their services. which
they might perform, and which others
are paid for. it might be a safe calcu-
Iation to estimate it equal TO all that
is expended for provisions and mar
keting in the States. SO it is not
a little inconsistent to hear parents
complaining about the price Of pre-
visions. while they bring up their
daughters to walk the streets and eX.
pend money.
Let the fair daughters Of u coun-
try initiate the industrious matrons of
the past. The companions of those
who fought in the Revolution were
Injured TO hardships, and accustomed
to necessary toll, and thus did they
educate their daughters. Health.
conten,ment and plenty smiled a.
round the family altar. The damsels

From the New Genesee Farmer.
Sowing Corn for Fodder.

Mr.. CoLMAN-1n the Farmer for
March, your correspondent Ledyard
asks information on the subject of
sowing corn, broad cast, for winter
fodder. | was. at first, surprised at
the enquiry. but on reflection, con-
cluded he must have been a stranger
to your paper, probably just then
commencing an acquaintance with it.
| ask leave, therefore, TO refer him to
your number for July, 184l, page
100. He will there find an article
on the subject, that will. | think, in a
measure satisfy his enquiries. | have
been for twenty years accustomed to
this culture, and have there given the
result of my experience. do not
feel as if | could say too much in its
favor. The product per acre. Oh a
rich soil. and in a favorable season,
will be very great. have never had
occasion TO ascertain with accuracy
the amount. But have considered,
or estimated the amoun on different
fields and in different seasons. to vary
from five to eve tons, or more per
acre. | have carried we'll 4 verv
large stock, rising 1000 sheep, and
NANNY cattle, farinto January, with
very little hay.
| would by no means suffer the
corn TO stand to let the ears ripen be-
fore harvesting. 1t should be cut
when must juicy, when the Juice is
richest and sweetest. This will be,
| suppose, at the time when the kerr
mel has become nearly or quite full Of
milk. When sown 9 1-2 bushels of
seed per acre. the quantity which |
recommend, and from which | would
not vary, it will stand so thick and
the stalks be SO slender, that but few
ears will set. Cut up at the time |
propose. it will be so extremely sue
%cu'ent. that it will need to stand in
small stouts 10 cure, during the dry
and hot weather; and should be put
into stacks, rs recommended in the
article referred to above, Just before
the fall rains commence.
The idea suggested in the Farmer
for March, page 81. 'tIlat weeds will
check its growth, if the land is rich,
and fill the ground with Seeds" | can
not think correct. 1t is entirely at
variance with my experience. The
ground is so deeply and perfectly
shaded, that ! have found nothing
could live or grow among it, save the
Canada thistle; and this would shoot
up Il slender, pale. weak, and sickly
stalk, unable 10 produce or sustain a
blossom.
| have been pleased. after taking
off the corn, with the condition of the
ground for cross-ploughing and SOW
ing with wheat. ! recommend to
SOW corn early, that it may be har-
vested early, and thus have the full
benefit of the dry and hot weather,
for the process of curing the stalk.
If cut late, it will be more difficult so
to cure ii as 10 secure its safety. |
once lost a large quantity, supposed
well cured, by slowing it away in a
large and solid now. OF course |
prefer stacking it, as recommended
in the article referred to above, around
Il pole, the length of q sheaf only
from the pole, so that the butts shall
all be exposed to the air.

EARLY RIsING.-Six or seven hours
sleep is certainly sufficient; and we
ought not to exceed eight. To make
sleep refreshing the following are re-
auisite:-to take sufficient exercise in
the open air; to avoid strong tea or
coffee; to eat a light supper; and to
lie down with a mind as cheerful and
serene as possible. 1t hardly ever
