HOW ARE FORTUNES MADE.

No person who has not investigated the
matter, can be aware OF the effect of small
saving and spending, when long continued,
upon mems fortunes. What laborer is there
who, with good health, may not save fifty
dollars per year2 And yet this trivial sum,
compound with only six per cent, interest,
amounts 10 $3.50 in ten years, S2,sOO in
twenty; sS,95o in thirty, and S7,7oo in for.
ty years. This fortune-a comfortable pro.
vision, TO say the least, for the fortune, TO
man of sixty years of age-may be accumu-
lated by saving thirteen and three-fcurhs
cents per day It is not uncommon to see
families side by side, equal in numbers, and
possessing, so for as the public can judge, the
same sources of prosperity, whereof the one
grows wealthy, and the other labors under
the continued pressure of debts and pecuniary
embarrassments. The old proyerb, that some
men are born with silver spoons IN their
mouths, and others with wooden ones, is Of
ten resorted 10 as the explanation Of such
mysteries. The truth is that what appears a
mystery, When examined little more close.
ly, is no mystery at all. Thirteen or fourteen
cents may slip through any mans fingers i'm
perceplibly, not only to others but himself
He may keep an invisible bad habit, which
will cost him that sum daily, and which he
will never think Of as considerable source
of expense. A very temperate and worthy
man, after each meal, calls regularity at the
next hotel for few moments, and smokes a
cigar, which cost him three cents. From
twenty, until he is seventy years of age, he
continues this practice. This expenditure,
with the accumulated interest upon it, will,
at the time, amount TO more than four thou
sand dollars! And if, after an enlerprising
and industrious life, he has accumulated that
sum, he will in almost any country town, be
reputed wealthy A fortune of sl4a, 900 may
be acquired in fifty years by earning, and
keeping safely invested, eight shillings and
three pence, New England currency, per
day.

SHEEP.

These gentle creatures, who both feed and
cloihe us, require protection, under shelter.
during the winter. The better they are kept,
the gieateI and more beautiful will be their
feces-ihe more money they will bring into
your pocket. Their shed, which should be
tight, and face the south, and open upon a
yard. must be bedded every few days with
straw, so as to keep them clean. They
should each receive about three pounds Of
hay daily-if given a gill Of oats, bean, or
pea meal, daily, two and a half pounds Of hay
will answer, or the like quantity of well cured
fodder or straw. Two pounds of roots, to be
cut up, and two pounds of loug proyender for
a days ration head A trough, with salt
strewed over tar should, AT all times, be ac'
cessble 10 them. IT. however, you supply
them with pine boughs 10 brownse on, you
may dispense with the tar. The yard, which
the sheep have access TO, should first ieceive,
a foo, of earth in depth, fashioned into ditch
shape, which should be kept covered with
straw, from time TO time, for the double pur-
pose of adding 10 the comfort of the sheep,
and absorbing their urine Sheep dung and
sheep urine thus protected from deterioration,
is among The richest of manuTes, and we
venture the assertion, that flock OF one hun
dred sheep, furnished with the right kind OF
material, would make manure enough from
November till May, to fertilze fifteen acres
of land

TO DEATH.
FROM THE GERMAN OF GLucK.

FROM THE GERMAN OF GLUcK.
Methinks it were no pain TO die,
On such an eve, when such sky
O'er canopies the west.
To gaze my fill on yon calm deep
And, like an infant, fall TO sleep
On earth, my mothers breast.
There's peace and welcome in yon sea
Of endless blue tranquility,
The clonds are living things;
trace their veins of liquid gold,
| see them solemnly unfold
Their soft and feecy wings.
These be the angles that convey
Us weary children of day
Life's tedious nothing o'er--
Where neither passions come, nor woes
To vex the genius Of repose
On Deaths majestic shore.
Nor darkness there divides the way
With startling dawn and dazzling day,
But gloriously serene
Are the intermnabe plains;
One fixed, eternal sunset reigns
Der the wide, silent scene.
cannot doff all human fear,
know the greeting is severe
To this poor shell of clay;
Yet come, o Death thy freezing kiss
Emancipates thy rest is bliss
would were away.
