DEAR Sir: have been using one Of your
Straw Cutters for some three Or four months,
and am satisfied that its advantages over oil
others, arc such that it will recommend itself to (,
every observer. Its adnptcdness to emitting all
kinds of grain, many desirable hngth IFS security
to the operator, the minimum of power required
to keep it in operation, the dispatch with which
it executes its work, combined with its simplicity
and durability, must make it invaluable TO every
one that may have use for them. -

WINTER.
BY MARY CARSON

The winter is near with its cold chilling breath,
And Nature is robed in the garments of death,
Despoiled of their foliage, the trees now appear,
And the leaves of the forest, are yellow and sere.
The flowers have faded, their fragrance is gone,
Like the bright hopes cherished in youths early
dawn,
Ere sorrows dark mantle its shadows had cast
\ gloom DER the future, and the joys OF the past.
The field and the mea lows no longer are seen,
Arrayed in their beautiful vestments of green,
On the hill and the valley, is written decay,
And winds through the leaAess trees mournfully
play.
The birds they have left US, the woodland and
No longer is vocal with echoes of love; [grove,
The hum Of the insect no longer we hear,
And the prospect around us, is lonely and drear.
Though winter near with its cold chilling BREATH
And nature is robed in the garments of death,
Sweet hope softly whispers, though dark be thy
reign,
The spring, lovely spring will cheer us again
The music OF. birds, and the hum of the bee
Shall greet US again with their notes glad and free
And flowers in beauty again shall appear,
The heart of the mourner, to soIace and cheer.
The fields and the meadows, in verdure arrayed,
And trees with their foliage, and dark cooling
shade,
Afford retreat from the suns scorching ray,
And again through the wildwood We'll joyfuITy
stray.
Yes, the spring shall return, uho perhaps not for
me,)
And suns shed their beauty o'er island and sea,
Difusing of life, and awaking to birth,
The forms that in embryo sleep In the earth.
The spring shall return, and long ere that day,
Will many form once healthfu and gay,
Be called to embark DER Jordon's dark wave,
And pass to the silent embrace Of the grave.
Our Father in Heaven, oh! grant we implore,
(Shoud spring with its beauties, here greet US no
more,)
Ere death with its manda s summons away,
A faith s!ssaazaS Ssrianpb over change and decay
3aySisions of glory from bright worlds of light
AS earth is receding, unveil to the sight,
OF sprng-time eternal, where storms e'er invade,
OF fields ever rernal, by time ne'er decayed
There dwell the loved forms on that sunny shore,
That clseered US awhile-their sorrows are DER,
Not given but lent by the Father Of love,
To link earth with heaven, and draw us above.

DECIDEDLY Coop ANEcDorE.-An
old lady, resident of neighboring place.
kept large family of turkeys, perhaps
sixty. She, like great many other peo-
pie, thought great deal of her turkeys,
consequently valued them very highly.
Opposite her door was West India
goods store; the man who kept it one
day emptied his casks of cherries, intend
ing to replace them with new. This old
lady being economical, thought it great
pity to have all these cherries wasted, and
in order to have them saved, she would
Just drive over her turkeys and let them
eat them. In the course of the day the
old lady thought she would look after
them and see they were in no mischief.
She approached the yard, and 10! in one
corner laid her turkeys, in one huge pile
dead! Yes, they were "stone dead"
What was to be done9 Surely the old
matron could not lose all the feathers.
She must pick them. She called her
daughters and picked them, intending to
have them buried in the morning. Morn
ing came, and behold, there were her tur-
keys stalking about the yard, featherless
enough, as may be supposed, crying out
"quit, quit" feeling no doubt mortified
that their drunken fit had been the means
of losing their coats. Poor things, if they
had said "quit," before they had begun
they would not have been in this bad fix.
We would advise all young men, who are
in the habit of drinking, to leave off be.
fore they get picked; and to those who
do not let every young lady say "quit."
