The man who writes for the Albany
Dutchman is sad dog. Just hear him.
.When people are laid up with the rheu-
matisln, always press them to come and
take tea with you. While such acts Of
kindness entail no expense on your pocket
book, they procure for you large reputa-

ness. With proper discrimination. there
is nothing that pays better profit than
agoodness of heart"

A WOMAN LAWYER, OR LAWYER Wo-
MAN.-On the 18th April, large throng
of people were attracted to the 4th Cham
Der of 'sLa Cour de la Seine," Paris, by
the announcement that woman would
plead her own cause before the tribunal of
justice.
Madame Grange advanced to the bar
with calm simplicity of manner. She
quietly took off her gloves and bonnet,
and placed her parasol against column.
shook back her magnificent blonde curls,
which hung around her face, and began
her speech. Without the slightest embar-
rassment or appearance Of WEAKNESS, she
spoke fby the watch) for three hours.
1t was case of an appeal from judg-
ment, and defended by Delangle. The
frequenters of the Palais were amazed,
and sorely chagrined to hear woman
plead cause so ably, with such facility,
such knowledge of the technicalities of the
Iaw-and, above all, with such convincing
eloquence.
At the end of three hours, Madame
Grange said that she would sum up the
WuOlCs HC COfGtOCoCNIo uUN CAOi0tuiOds
"She viii recommence her pleading y
They were widely mistaken. Although
the resume was rather discursive, it was
lucid and admirable. AT its termination,
Madame Grange said, with delicate good
taste and simplicity: "Gentlemen, | think
have said all that is necessary TO enlight-
en- YOU upon my right. Pardon me, if |
have wearied you. AS daughter, feel
myself impelIed to defend the rights of an
aged mother; as mother, | am compelled
to defend the rights of my children"
Monsieur Delangle replied to Madame
Grange, whom he could not avoid address
ing occasionally, as sthe honorable gen.
tIeman." He would then quickly apollo
gise, and the whole scene passed away
with good humor. There can be no doubt
but that women would be great lawyers.

A Compost for Corn.


If you would compost the raw materials
on your farm, or your shores, in your woods
and marshes, you may render yourselves
independent Of the monopolists, into whose
hands the Guano trade has fallen.
20 double horse cart loads Of river of
mud or wood mould,
10 bushels of ashes,
2 bushels of bone dust,
bushel of salt,
25 pounds of sulphafe of magnesia; and
8 gallons of oil.
if composted together, made up into conf
cal heap, the upper layer to be of mud or
mould, will, in few weeks, prove to be
as efficient manure for an acre in corn, or
any other grain or root crop, as would 400
pounds of guano, or 20 loads Of stable ma
nure. Resort then to your shores, your
marshes, and your woods, for fhe raw
material to be manufactured into nanare.
If you have no ashes, and cannot conven-
iently get any. bul have mari, substitute
the ashes by 100 bushels Of mari, provid-
ed your land needs lining. II you think
there is lime enough in your sell, subsii-
Ntute 5 OF 6 loads of barh-yard OF stable
manure for the ashes.
If your land is sandy, and clay conven-
lent, an addition Of from S 10 10 loads Of
that earth to the above quantities, viii
greatly add to the value of The compost.
To be taxed with hsregnlar profit, nay,
with three or four fair profits on an article,
and to have TO stand shave Of 240 lbs. on
each ton Of guano besides, is enough to
rouse you TO the most energetic resistance
against such imposition. The most effeetns
al resistance you can offer, is. to work zeal
ously, collect your domestic resources, con-
vert them into manure. and place your
selves IN position that will FENDER you in-
dependent Of extortioners.-Soil Of the
South.
You are in doubt, and run in further, if
you are not liar yet, you will Be one.
E1E who is an ass, and takes himself to
