who hailed from south shore, bought at one
of our book stores dozen almanacs for him

Unloading Hav at the Barn.

The following article presents new, and
we see not why practical idea, in farm
inc operations Those who have gone
through the toll and sweat of pitching, and
we arc not ashamed to count ourselves a.
mong the number, will feel gratfed at the
prospect Of being so essentially relieved
from one of the most burdensome of all
farm labors.-ED.
Mr. Editor AS the season for repairing
barns, &c, is fast approaching, l have tho't
that slight description of nay method of
unloading hay from the wagon into the NOV,
might be Of value to some of your numerous
readers, as the labor, fatigue, and expense
of pitching off is almost entirely saved by it,
while the cost of the whole apparatus for
performing the operation is only $l5; a
sum, not sufficient to pay for the labor he
will save in unloading the first Fifty TONS
The Improvement consists in removing one
half the load at a time, from the wagon to
the NOW in one entire body, by means of a
windlass, and thus saving all that vast a.
mount of strength and exertien, which is at
present extended in separating the forksfull
from the load On commencing the load
ing, web, or piece of network, made of
small rope and resembling in appearance
the cording of bedstead, is spread over the
bottom of the wagon, and the hay is loaden
on it, until the load is about one half on,
when another web, similar to the FIRST, is
spread over the top of that, and the remain.
der of the load is placed on it. On arriving
at the barn, a rope, which passes through
pully, suspended to the ridge, directly o.
yer the NOW in which the hay is to be pIa-
ced, and extends down to the windIass, is
attachedito the outer edges of the uppermost
web, and then, by means ofthe small wind
lass which is placed at the side of the floor,
a man, the driver of the team, can elevate
that half the load which is above the web
over the beam, and drop it into the NOV, in
the short space oftwo minutes.
The hay is dropped by unhitching one Of
the hooks that connects the rope with the
web, by means Of small cord which is at
tached to them, and runs down to the wind.
lass, so that the man can drop it wherever
he pleases the windass, rope, &c. can be
removed from one barn to another in a few
moments, so that one set will answer for any
number fbarns. Only one man is required
to go from the field to the barn, as the hay
being dropped in various parts of the NOV,
needs no moving away, except an OCCASION
al eveling, which may generally be done in
aslther. With its assistance, one man

A Pedlar's Trick.

One of that class of bipeds who call them
selves travelling merchants" called at a
house in the country few years ago, and
without ceremony, Embossed his budgets of
dry goods, and very earnestly solicited the
lady of the house to make purchase Of
some of his choice articles; which, conss-
ted chiefly of cotton handkerchefs, and dir
~ tape
She told him she did not want anything
he had. He then told her if there was any
article of apparel which she did want, that
he could supply her at days notice. Think.
ing to bluff, him, she told him that she did
not want anything but Cashmere shawl
Z" Very well, maam," said he, " can
supply YOU | sold the last one had to-
morrow, but shall have more in few
days"
"Ah said the lady, you sold the last
one Tomorrow? You are day ahead ofus
but if you will bring me one yesterday,
will take it, at your own price"
"Thank'e a'am," said the pedIar, de-
lighted with his prospect; then tied up his
traps, and babe her good day."
The lady believed she had got rid of him
cheap, and thought no more of him until a
few days afterward when he called with a
shawl, a real cashmere, though of very in
ferior quality, for which he charged twenty
dollrrs
81 shall not take your shawl" said She
at told you if you would bring it yestedayi

AN EVENING REVERE.
BY MRS. HALE.

wonder if the rich man prays P
And how his morning prayer IS SAID ?
He'll ask for health, and length OF days
But does he pray for daily bread
When by his door, in posture meek,
He sees poor man waiting stand,
With sunken eye, and caieworn cheek,
To beg employment from his hand
And when he tells the piteous tale,
OF sickIy wife and children small,
OF rents that rise, or crops that fall,
And troubles that the poor befali: .
wonder if the rich mans thought
Mounts free, as natures hymn, to Heaven
In gratitude, that happier lot,
by Providence, to lin is given?
And does his heart exult to know,
He too, like Heaven, has power to give?
To strengthen weakness, soften wo,
And bid Hopes dying lamp revive
And when, around his gladstone hearth,
A troop OF friends the rich man greet,
And songs Of Joy and smiles of mrtb,
Add grace to Fattery's homage sweet
| wonder if his fancy sees
A vision of those wretched homes,
Where want is wrestling with disease,
And scarce ray Of comfort comes
And when the wintry tempest beats,
And wakes him from his soft repose,
While every gust a d!rge repeats
For those who die mid want and woes
wonder if he listening lies,
And wishes for the morning light,
That he may dry the weeping eyes,
And comfort those whose life is night
Oh, World how strange thy lois are giyer
Lies aim--how rarely understood
And men-how far estranged from heaven,
If heaven require brotherhood!

A JOKE TOR THE LADIEs-Thr editor of
paper in Providence lately informed his
readers that the Ladder always pull off the left
stocking last. This, as may be supposed,
creating some little stir among his fair rea.
ders, and while in positive terms they denied
the statement. they at the same time declared
that he had no buincss to know it, even if
such was the fact and pronounced Kim no
gentleman. lie proves it, however, ny II
short argument, When ore stocking Is
pulled off FIRST, there is another rift on,
pulling off this is taking the l.4 stocking
off last.
