Mr.. HOLMES Would it not be for the
interest of farmers 10 turn their attention,
the coming spring, more to the raising of
beans? Our fathers used to raise only a
few bushels, even in bean porridge times,
and, at least, half of them were cooked in,
and eat with the broth Of meat, which was
very nourishing and wholesome food. But
as the average price of beans has been for
the last ten years, l would suggest if any
more profitable crop can be raised, than
beans, if a proper variety be planted .
They will yield wo.thirds as much per acre
as oats, and, or easy land, it is but a trine TO
cultivate them. A man may hoe a half an
acre a day, and have his nap at n

Horace could always hear Grace Csrroll's
voice, that is if it was Ucry near hin-and
yet she never raised her tone perhaps it
was on that account-her voice WIS pecu-
liarly clear and soft, and it seemedt to reach
his soul instead of his ear. AID now she
stole timidly to his side and put her sweet
mouth close to his face. How his heart
beat. ~
"Do sing for US, Mr.. Herbert-just one
song"
Herbert did not turn-he could not-that
tone always reused in his soul an emotion
he dared not betray-but he obeyed at once
the spell of his enchantress, and sang in a
rich, mellow, manly voice-while his dark
face lighted up into almost inspired beauty,
the following impromptu verses:
Speak no more / dare not hear thee!
Every word ard tone divine
All too fatally endear thee,
To this daring soul of mine.
Smile no more! ] must not see thee
Every smiles a golden net
Heart entangled what can free thee
What can soothe thy wild regrets
Speak again smile on forever
Let me in that music live
Let me in that light eudeavor
To forget the grief they give.
Thrill my soul with voice and look, love,
Like the harp tone in the air,
Like the starlight in the brook, love,
They will still live treasured there.
As he finished, Horace bent his dark eye
earnestly on the fair and dropping face o
Grace Carroll, and again it crimsoned a.

The next morning, before breakfast,
Grace entered the drawing-room with a
beating heart. A young man, a stranger,
occupied a sofa near the fire, from which he
courteously rose as she came in. Grace
thought she had never seen so handsome
and distinguished looking a man. He made
a singular impression upon her mind, for
which she knew not how TO account. His
carriage was noble and easy-a pale COM
p%lexion, intellectually pale, set off to advan-
tage his hair of glossy black, and eyes Of
the same deep hue, glistening with the fire
Of genius and feeling. Grace had naturally a
passionate love of the beautiful in all its
varieties, and this persons beauty was of so
