Observation-Disclosures of the Louisville
Journal, INDUCES his humor ut the expense
of Brough, the editor of the Cincinnati En-
quirer. Brough it seems having become
interested in astronomy, desired to take an
observation of the moon through the new
telescope at the Observatory, which is said
to be very splendid instrument. Prentice
tells the story thus:
He took his seat and began his astrono-
mlcal observations. There were several
gentlemen standing near him, who were
greatly edited by the running commentary
he kept up on what he saw. He recoled
from the telescope after he had looked into
1t moment, and swore he saw the ugliest
thing ever made. Again he looked and
said: IL see something that looks like
man-no, it's more like baboon dressed
up in human clothes. Jehu! what an ugly
mouth; it looks as if it had fed on nothing
but green persimmons and horse radish for
a month. It's eyelids keep falling down as
! if it was (raid to look an honest man in
the face. One eye squints and the other
Jumps about like pea on a hot shovel.
The critters bumps are awful, the living
bump silks ont like wen, and the stealing
bump is so big that he'd be mighty bad Gus
toner for bank. IIl swear that if that is
the man in the moon Pm looking at, the
old fellow had better wear a mask. Mr..
Muchell,' continued Brough, taking his eye
from the telescope, SIS the fellow the man
in the moon?'
As Brough very innocently put his inter-
rogaton 10 the professor, the whole COM
pany, which had been convuIsed with laugh
ter while listening to the EDITORS brilliant
Astronomical remarks, roared aloud For
| five minutes there stood Brough, looking as
vacant as an apple dumping at the up
roarlous customers, wondering what had
got into the fellows. At length one of
the company having become sufficiently
composed, said,-"Why, Brough, you're
hoaXed."
"Hoaxedm repeated Brough, looking as
flat as one of his own editorials.
yes, hoaxed," replied the astronomer.
"l on have been looking at yourselc''
And this was true, for some vag had Slip

Brough, instead of describing the man in the

ton Of his own appearance. He pulled his

A WORD FOR OLD MAIDs.-We knowof
nothing more disreputable in any man than
the heartless and unfeeling ridicule which
is sometimes expended on that eslimable
class in society, the old maids. The writer
of the following deserves the eternal graft
tude of the slsterhood of spnsters, for the
noble manner in which he breaks lance in
their favor:
Certain young ladies seem to cherish
great horror Of dying unmarried. An cold
mald,' in their estimation, is title Of deep
reproach. Thus we heard one miss say to
another, as two ladies passed them the other
day: "There 60 two old maid sisters" And
what if they were maids, and old, too? Is
ii any reproach TO lady 10 be either or both
Of these? 1t by no means follows, because
a lady remains unmarried, that she does so
by compulsion, or that she is destitute Of
those endowments of person, and mind, and
heart, which are adapted to render her at
tractive and loveable. 1t is among the pos
sibiities of life, that lady should prefer the
independence Of single life 10 the chances
of improving her condition by uniting her
fortune with that of any man. 1t is vet
more probable that d lady failing to receive
the addresses of any man whom she could
respect and love, should have so much taste
and heart as to refuse every other offer. 1t
has been our good fortune to know many
estmable married ladies; but we verify be-
lleve that we can match every one of them
with an sold maid" equally estimable. And
when we have seen a poor broken-spirited
vile, leased and tormented by half dozen
children, or i'll treated by cross and UNI
feeling husband, we have been tempted to
think that, after all, to be an old maid is not
the worst Ill that can befal woman,
As for old bachelors, we confess we have
but little to say. There is, to be sure, now
and then right clever fellow among them;
but, as race, we are compelled TO say that
they are no better than they should be.

Now, then, man, horse, and cart, thu
employed for three months, could, in tn,
way we have pointed out, make one thou
sand loads Of fat manure, which would, a
fair estimate, being on the farm, be wortl
one dollar per load, and would, indeed, adj
much more than that to the increased value
of the products of the land so that with
! labor worth one hundred and nineteen dol
! lars, manure could be accumulated, worth
inrinslcally worth, one thousand dollars
or eight hundred and eighty-one dollar:
more than the price of the labor and tn,
time employed in its collection.
By combining night soiling with dry graz
ing, all possible objections arising from the
confinement of cattle would be got rid of
while that object, which should be so near
and dear to every farmers heart, the in
crease of the manure pile, would be sig
nally attained, and attained too, at an ex-
pense SO comparatively triaing as not to be
worthy of being placed in the opposite
scale against the attendant advantages.
If any one should doubt that twenty head
Of cattle could ferliize, and yield, one thou
sand loads OF manure in year, we reply
that the thing is entirely practicable, and SO
will every correctly thinking man admit
when we tell him that, in every gallon oil
cattle urine, there is ammonia enough to
grow eight pounds of wheat, or, indeed
amy other grain, SO that every seven and d
half gallons Of liquid weddings, if its bread
giving elements be preserved, would be
equivalent TO the production of bushel OF
grain, and that these elements would be
G@5erved by the plaster and charcoal, there
iSan be no doubt. Thus, then, by the action
of these two substances upon the urine oil
the cows, i'll the detention of its enriching
gases, would the earth, thus thrown into
the yard, be fertlized and converted into
manure of the most enriching and grain
producing character. While the solid drop
pings a the animals might be looked upon
ITO be worth as much, as the same agents
would be at work to prevent the escape
from them of those volatile principles. which
are not only manure of themselves, but the
creators of manures out of other substances
Those who may adopt the soiling system
that we have recommended, would consult
their interest, if they were to cast into and
spread over their cattle yard, at intervals oil
SIX weeks throughout the season, suffi-
cent quantity of fresh earth to cover the
surface some two or three inches in depth
at each time, taking care to SOW bnshel
or two of plaster and five or ten bushels Of

SOILING OF E-COMPOSTING
MANURES.

These two subjects are so intimately con-
nected, involve interests so identical, and
so deeply concern the well-being Of the
agricultural community, that we shall treat
them under the same general head. 10 at

settled States, without man uring, with the
hope Of resulting profits, would be to DEFY
the experience of centuries, and turn deal
ear 10 the injunctions of that philosophy

sense; for the observation OF every farmer,
who may be in the least intelligent, will
have forced the conviction upon his mind,
that he who looks to the earth for remu-
4nerating returns, must make 1t the aim oil
bis system to restore TO 1t, IN the form OF

which it may yield, or exhaustion OF It's
powers Of production will necessarily fol-

we hold to be so incontrovertble as to re-
quire no argument TO sustain them, and we
shall, therefore, not trouble the reader with

themselves i'll position to fertllize and i'm

We are aware that we shall be met, In
the very onset, with that stereotyped objec-
ton that, in this country, labor is too dear
to contemplate feeding cattle by soimg /;
but, in despite of this objection, we shall
venture to urge, hat soiling of stock should
be engrafted upon the system Of every far

and oxen to make it all object.
Let US suppose that farmer had twenty
head Of cattle, and that, with the view feed
ing them of night with green meat, from
May until the frosls of fall, in order that
he might make the greatest possible guam
tity of manure, all he would have to do
would be, to provide himself with sX-acre
lot, manure and ash, or lime it well, sow
t,co acres of it in lucerne, one in clover,
and divide the other three acres, between
corn, sown broadcast, and millet, say, two
acres of the former and one of the latter.
Such lot, thus cultivated, would afford an
ample supply of green food for the number
of cattle named, from the early part in May
till late in the fall. The green meat bul
once provided, the next thing would be to

"TaIking SENSE,

The Journal Of Commerce, speaking of the debts of
certain States, Observes
The sooner the foreign creditors set about making
some overtures to the indebted States the better if
they ever expect to get their money. No other plan

sketch Of the proceedings in the U. s. Senate the
bill granting alternate divisions of the public lands
on both sides of the line of this work, (from Terre
Haute to the Ohio River to the State of Indiana to
enable her the better to complete the Improvement.
MIR. NILES resisted the passage of the bill, because
1t was not within the constitutional jurisdiction of
Congress, strictly speaking, to make this grant be-
cause, the example would be unwise precedent
because it was local measure and not a national
one in the true Obstruction.
MIR. HANNEGAN replied briefly but with energy and
force in support of the grant proposed in the b-the
lands would otherwise remain vacant, whereas the
granting of one half would more than quadruple the
value of the remainder to the government.
Mr. WOODBRIDGE sustained Mr.. HANNEGAN--NILEs
replied to both gentlemen, with clearness of argu-
men and coseness of reasoning, that wasgratiying
as it was forcibe. Mr.. BENTON threw in good word
incidentally for the bill. Mr.. BAGBY opposed the
grant Mr.. BREEsE exhibited the difference between
grant of lands aud appropriation of money, and

this case, especially to the United States the grant
