management OF Wood Lots.

In this department Of farming operations
there have been great improvements made
within the lastiSsehiy years. The practice of
going over The whole lot, cutting here lrea
and there tree, has been entirely abandoned
by our bes, farmers, and The following sysienl
generally prevails with them:
When their lots consisisi OF heavy lull grown
wood, they cut all entirely clean as far a' they
go; and where they wish to have The We" u
grown again as soon as possible, the cattle ar
no permitted 10 browse In IL.
Where the oi consists Of a very thick SEE
ond growth with good deal of underwooa. "a

ing strongly devoted 10 his master, had by dint
Of long practice, made himself an adept in CIV
ing plausibiiIy TO his masters large stories.
One day when The master was entertaining
his guests in his customary manner, among
other marvellous facts he related an incident
which took place 10 one of his hunting excur-
sions.
Il fred at buck said he, sat hundred
yards distance, and The ball passed through his
left hind foot and through his head just back of
his carp
This evidently producing some little doubt in
the minds of his guests, he called upon Sambo
TO corroborate him.

slave, after moments hesitation, me see de

without further hesitation; but when his guests
were gone Sambo ventured upon his mas

The manufacturer, describes them as being made
entirely from lard-of pearly whileness-
semi transparent hard as The best wax
candles, (Which they closely resemb!e,) and
will burn long as sperm, giving a large,
white, and lusirous flame.
These candles are in use in the lower
House of our State legislature. The light
made by those we have seen, says Harrisburg

they are infinitely superior 10 The talow can

Advantage OF Wearing PantaiO GA
StraPSi

There are always TWO sides To ques-
tion, and good deal may generally be-
said on both sides Our friend, DR.. Smith, nl
The Medical and Surgical Journal, raised his
voice against wearing Snaps; Notwithstanding
which, however, the Newburyporl Herald re-
lates the following incident, sort of argu-
ment in favor Of wearing lhem:-"A genlle-
man recently supposed he had lost his wallet,
containing considerable sum of money, III bls
way, from the market TO his residence. Alter
hunting for it in vain, he hurried to our Office
with an advertisement, and being about to leave
town for day or Two, went home again 10
make some change in his dress. Upon unas-
leniug his straps, the wallet dropped out fronl
the place where il had remained snugly wedg-
ed, between the boot and the strap 1t is clear
that without straps he had lost his wallet, and
whether he would have recovered il again
might have depended on good many contin-
gencies, in these .imes."-Boston Transcript

From Grahan's Magazine.
The Crowded Street.

BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.
Let me move slowly through the street,
Filled with an evershi6ing train,
Amid the sound of steps that beat
The murmuring walks like autumn rain.
How fast the fitting figures come
The mild, the fierce, the stony face;
Some bright with thoughtless smiles, and som
Where secret tears have left their trace
They pass-to toll, to strife, to rest;
To halls in which the feast is spread
To chambers where the funeral guest
in silence sits beside the dead.
And some to happy homes repair,
Where children, pressing cheek TO cheek,
With mute caresses shall declare
The tenderness they cannot speak.
And some, who walk in calmness here,
Shall shudder as they reach the door
Where one who made their dwelling dear
Its flower, its Lights seen no more.
Youth, with pale cheek and slender frame,
And dreams of greatness in thine eye.
Goest thou to build an early name,
Or early in the task to diel
Keen son Of trade, with eager brow!
Who is now futtering in thy snare!
Thy golden fortunes-tower they now
Or melt the glittering spires in air!
Who of this crowd, tonight, shall tread
The dance till daylight CLEANS again!
Who sorrow DER tn untmely dead
Who writhe in throes of mortal pain!
Some, famine struck, shall think how long
The cold, dark hours--how slow the light,
And some, who 1aunt amid the throng,
Shall hide in dens of shame to night
Each, where his tasks or pleasures call,
They pass, and heed each other not
There is who heeds-who holds them all
In His large love and boundless thought.
These struggling tides of life that seem
In wayward, aimless course to tend,
Are eddies of the mighty stream
That rolls TO its predesiined end
