A Wife-Hunter HOaxed.

Some time since an advertisement appeared
in the Manchester (Eng,) Guardian, setting
forth that the advertiser was in want Of wife.
A gentlemen OF Wakefield, concevng that the
announcement emanated from some fortune
hunter, took upon himself to write TO the speci
fled address, pretending to be lady of fortune,
who had never been able to meet with a being
of the male sex whom she could "promise to
love, honor and obey" ayerrng that the man
who would be able to tune her heart to love,
must be able to discourse eloquently Oh litera.
ture, science, &c. The bait took, and few
posts brought letter bearing the Liverpool
post-mark, and addressed "Mss Sophia b., Post
Office, Wakefield" The writer, after avowing
sympathy i'll the matter of literary taste, indug-
ing in some romantic fourlshes, and mention
ing beauty as nsepersble in the lady, gives a
glowing description of his own personal appear
ance. A correspondence ensued, carried on by
the assumed lady, in an apparently bona .fde
spirit, and by the wiie.hunter in bombastic
and braggadocia style. The result was that an
interview was appointed to take place on Friday
afternoon, at Wakefield, and the gentleman pro-
missed to appear in his usual dress, suit of sa-
bles-or that he might bear more distinguish
ing sign, he would wear light vest, have Ell.
ther rose in his breast or a book in his hand,
and be accompanied by an old friend in the shape
Of stick.
True to his appointment the gentleman pre-
sented himself at the place OF meeting, and pa
raded the church yard for about twenty minutes
TO the great amusement of a number of parties
IN the street. who had posted themselves in the
windows of the neghboring shops and hotels.
As the lady did not appear, he then, in ac
cordance with an arrangement previously made
went to the Post-offce, found letter account
ing for her absence, and declaring that on the
following morning she would meet him at al
risks. Although the whole correspondence
appeared that morning in the Wakefield Jour
nal the wife.hunting dupe again kept the ap
poiutment, and after having been followed by
crowd, who enjoyed the joke that had been play
ed upon him, he found cut the trick, much to hi
discontinue. The gentleman is resident O

Gold and silver.

Thompson's Bank Note Reporter has an ar
ticle on this subject which contains the follow
ing interesting facts respecting the increased
supplies of gold from Russia. Speaking of the
recent expectation of silver from this country
TO Europe, the Reporter says
The present very small demand for silver is
not in consequence OF the adverse exchanges,
but Of a demand for silver as a commodity.
The currency of Russia is mostly paper, and
the government nave made great efforts to re-
form it; about four years since ukase was
issued, having for its object the increase of the
silver currency of the empire, that metal being
among poor population, preferable TO gold.
The ukase had at the time very little effect
but OF late years an immense serf population
have been employed in washing the gold of the
Ural mountains, and the production is excessive.
The highest authority places the annual pro-
! duction at Ii,000,000 Recently an applica.
ton was made 10 the Bank OF England, by the
Russian government TO know what use they
could make of f6,O0O,000 and no favorable an
swer could be Obtained. Arrangements were,
| however, in progress to exchange il for silver,
| ia order 10 redeem the paper rubies. This
process has been going on by the accumula,on
in the hands of the house OF Rothschiids Of Sc.
100000 silver, which has caused gradnat
advance IN the price OF that metal.
South American dollars have advanced it Ia.
per OF. since February, which is Ii per cent.
and will find their way TO Russia, causing &
continued rise in silver. In fact, the enormous
supply OF gold will Immediately tend to advance
the price Of all other articles throughout the
world, silver among others, and to require a
readiustment ofthe standards Otall nations. la
England gold is to silver as - to /. The in
creased abundance OF the former metal may re.
duce 1t to l. to l.--The operation in this coun-
try, will BE-, as already began to be felt, to n-
duce an export Of silver and an import of gold.
Much superlatye nonsense is uttered in the
streets and printed IN papers about the balance
of trade against the country, caused by large
imports
The imports for the six months of this wear
were one million dollars less thau in the same
period OF 1872 when the import OF S23, ,O0OUOU
OF specie commenced. The imports have thus
far been all paid for, and prices are now looking
down. The imports for July were little over
S1,OOO,OO0, which wni give 81, 100000 tor

quarter Of ISL

Green Crops for Turning In.

Perhaps there are no means of improving
land, within the control of the farmer OF limited
resources, more effective and economical than
the turning in ofgreen crops-and the publish
ed accounts of the results Of Tins practice are
such as to Justify the recommendation of it to all
farmers who are compelled 10 adopt the cheap.
est and most available methods of improving or
keeping up the fertility Of their soils. Var Gus
crops have been recommended for the purpose
OF turning IN green peas, oats, corn, rye, clover,
buckwbeat, &c. Clover, so far as It's cnrchng
properties are concerned, ranks among the vc-
ry best crops for this purpose. The heaviest
crop OF rye we ever saw, Upwards of forty
bushels to the acrc) was raised on land where n
growth of clover had been turned in. Bat all
things considered, no crop, we think, has supe-
rior if equal claims to buckWheat, for turning in
green. 1t is not great exhauster-haying n
small hbrous root, with large branching top 1t
probably derives nearly mach nourishncnt
from the atmosphere as from the soil it will
also thrive Oh a soil where other plants would
starve and it comes into blossom sooner than
most other grain-beallng plants. Sown in June,
it may be turned in early in September, and
the land seeded down with grass or winter rye
an excellent plan. by this process, Mr., John
keely, of llaverhIll, obtained, in 1880, forty
eight bushels of excellent rye, from two aud
three quarter acres OF land so poor that part
OF it would not sustain growth of sorrel, with
which the other part was flled-N. T.. Far

"THAT SAME OLD COON"
A Very Mournful Eiesy.--Dedicatedt to the
Melancholy wings.
TuNE-"OH Grimes"

W" 'f'"tto'
The coon is dead-that same old coon,
We ne 'er shall see him more;
A long fur coat Of notified grey,
Upon his back he wore
He used to roam about the States,
To barbecues and shows
He had two ears upon his head,
And smellers on his nose.
At routs and meetings, day and night,
His aid was e'er irsstore
ale sat sometimes upon tree,
Sometimes beside the door
But death, which comes to ALL at last
Came to this same old coon;
Among Jersey blues he caught a cold,
And fell down in swoon.
A gentle breeze from Maryland's shore,
Revived his hope awhile,
And they who watched him, say that DER
His face there passed smile
The last that e'er lit up his eye
For from the Keystone, then,
A warning voice broke on his ear,
And he smiled not again
But raising up his long thin face,
He whispered faint and low.
"Oh, bear me 10 my native land,
My native Ohio
lie spoke no more, but straightway fell
Into another swoon;
So fearfHl were the boding thoughts,
That came to this old coon.
AT length the broad Ohio passed,
Meath an October sky"
Under spreading buckeye tree
They laid him down to die.
They conveyed him to the Empire State,
And round him raised their host,
But found that here we'd sealed his fate;
He then gave uphis ghost"
Sadly around him closed his friends,
Nor gold nor art might save
And he who was so mighty once,
Now fills raccoon's grave
Mourn for the coon-the same old coon
dis triumphs all are Ger
Mourn for the coon-'that same old coon,
We ne'er shall see him more
