How 10 save Poultry aanclrc.

Having learned the value of poultry
manure, we suppose our readers would
like to know what is the best method to
save it:-First, build poultry-house,
if it be no more than rough scaffold-
ing of poles or slabs, laid upon crotches,
forming double pitch roof, with end
boards in winter, to keep out the wind
and driving storms. Under this place
parallel roosts the manure during the
night, then, will all drop down in a mar
row row beneath. Here place light loan
about a foot deep, rather wider and long
er than the roost, and give it a sprink-
ling of Plaster of Paris an inch thick.
When this is covered an inch deep with
manure, give it layer of loan four inches
deep, and a another sprinkling Of an inch
of plaster, and so continue. In the spring
mix all web together, keep it free from
the rain, and use it at the rate of one
pint to ahill of corn, or in correspond
ing quantity for eucumbers, squashes,
pumpkins, peas, onions, strawberries, mel
ons, or any other fruit, vegetable or grain
requiring rich, warm manure, and our
word for it, you will have large crop,
Of superior quality.-The Plough.

Beanlfful Seutinaents.

TX Marvel, in his "Reveries of a Bache-
lor," thus writes:-" A man without some
sort Of religion, is, at best, poor repro
bate, the football of destiny, with no tie
linking him to infnity and to the Won
drous eternity that is began within him !;
but woman without it is even woIse-
fame without heat, rainbow without
color, flower without perfume.
A man may in some sort, tie his
frail hopes and honors, with weak, shifting
ground tacke to his business or the world;
but woman, without that anchor which
they call Faith, is adrift and wreck?
a man may clumsily continue kind of
moral responsibility out of relations to
mankind but a woman, in her compar-
atively isolated sphere, where affection
and not purpose is the controlling motive,
can find no basis in any other system Of
right action, but that of spiritual faith
A man may craze bis thoughts and his
brain, to trustfulness, in such poor har-
borage as Fame and Reputation may
stretch bcfor him !; but a woman-where
can she put her hope in storms if not in
Heaven! cf1I 20 geG 81 .a-1o5
And that sweet trustfulness-that
abiding loTe-that enduring hope, mel
lowing every page and scene oflife, light
ing them with the pleasantest radiance;
when the worlds storms break like an
army with smoking cannon--what can be-
stow it all but holy soul tie to what is
stronger than an army with cannon?-
Who that has enjoyed the love of a Chris
tian mother, but will echo the thought
with energy, and hallow it with a tearW

Yes, Get Married.

Dow. Jr. is queer fellow, and says many
good things in his own curious style. Hear
him discourse to young man on the subject
Iefgetting married. He really almost makes
it out that wife is of some use to man:
" Young man, if you have arrived at the
right point in life for it, let every other con-
sideration give way to that of getting married.
Don't think of anything else. Keep poking
among the rubbish of the world till you have
stirred up gem worth possessing, in the
shape of wife. Never think OF delaying the
matter, for you know delays are dangerous.
A good wife is the most constant and faithful
companion you can possibly have by your
side, while performing the duty oflife. She is
of more service to you than you may at first
imagine. She can smooth your linen and
your cares; mend your trowsers, and per-
chance your manners; sweeten your sour. mo-
ments as well as your tea and coffee Cor you;
ruffie, perhaps, your shirt BOSOM but not your
temper; and instead of sowing the seeds of
sorrow in your path, she will sow buttons on
your shirt, and plant happiness instead of har-
row teeth in your bosom. Yes, if you are
;oe confounded lazy or too proud to do such
work yourself she win chop wood and dig
potatoes for dinner; for her love for her hus-
band is such that she will do anything to
-ro.co L;c, hr+ rooo;,o bop oop,D,nv IN h n y
every day clothes. When woman loves
she loves with dou6le-distilled devotedness.
and when she hates she hates on the high
pressure principle. Her love is as deep as
the ocean, as strong as hempen halter, and
as immutable as the rock She won't change
It unless il is in a fit Of jealousy; and even
then il fingers as if 10th to part, like the eve
mig twilight at the windows of the vest
Get married by all means. All the excuses
you fish up-against doing the deed amt
worth a spoonful of pigeons milk. Mark
this. If, blessed with health and employ
men;, you are not able to support a wife, de-
pend upon it, you are not able to support your
self Therefore, so much more need of an
nexation, for in union as well as in an onion
there is strength. Get married, | repeat,
young men. Concentrate your affections
upon one subject, ana not distribute them
Grub by crumb among the Susans, Marias,
Lorynnas, Olives, Augustus, Elias, Sarabs,
Marys, Lydias, Lauras, Marthas and Doro-
thies, allowing each scarce enough to nibble
at. Get married, and have something to
cheer you, as you journey through life.

.o7hsnFsigoI auastt.ansa


A Methodist preacher many years ago
was journeying toa village where he was
to dispense the word of life, according
to the usual routine of his duty, and was
stopped on his way by three robbers
One ofthem seized his bridal reins, anoth-
er presented pistol and demanded his
money; the third was mere locker on.
The grave and devout man looked each
and all Of them in the face, and with great
gravity and seriousness said:
q Friends, did you pray to God before
you left home? Did you ask God to bless
you in your undertakings to-day?' 1
The question startled them for mo-
ment. Recovering themselves, one said:
We have no time to answer such ques-
tions, we want your money
= am a poor preacher of the Gospel,
was the reply: but what little | have
shall be given to you
A few shillings was all he had to give.
Have you not watch p a1
Yes saf
'Well then give it to u.s. '~
In taking the watch from his pockets
his saddle bags were displayed.
what have you here 2 was the ques-
tion again. 6 cannot say I have nothing
in them but religious books, because l
have pair Of shoes and a change of
linen also.' '
'We must have them
The preacher dismounted The sad
dle-bags were taken possession of, and
no further demand. Instantly the
preacher began to unbutton his great coat,
and to throw it off his shoulders, at the
same time asking will you have my great
coat?
No. was the rep'y?' you are a gen
erous man, and We will not take it.
He then addressed them as follows /:
4 have given you everything you asked
for-and would have given you more
than you asked for. l have one favor to
ask of you
'What is it p
THAT you kneel down and allow me
to pray to Almighty God in your behalf;
to ask him to turn your hearts and put
you in the right way.
I'll have nothing to do with the mans
things said the ringleader.
Nor I NEITHER said another.
Here, take your watch, your money,
your saddle-bags-if we have anything
to do with them, the judgment of God
will certainly ovortake Us.
G. ~ro, TTl,oL
however, would not satisfy the sainted
man. He urged prayer upon them
He knelt down; one OF the robbers knelt
with him one prayed-the other wept,
confessed his sin, said it was the first
time in his life that he had done such a
thing, and it should be the 3ast. How
far he kept his word is known only to
him whose eyelids try she children Of
men. -t sl1-3 eHp -

ExnIo,Ion of AndIror,s.

=,
Several months since, says the Colum :
bus lGa.1 Sentinel, the family of the edi-
tor was alarmed by asudden and tremend-
Gus excitement, about ten O'Clock at
night, In an adjoining room. Upon enqpi-
~ it was ascertained that the hollow brass
knob on the top of common andiron
had exploded throwing fragment of it
with great force into the ceiling. The
report was louder than that of pistol,
and the knob was thrown. with sufficient
power to have killed man. The cir
eumstance was attributed to the sudden
expansion of the air confined within the
knob, but as such an occurrence had new
er been known before, the explanation
was regarded as unsatisfactory No men
ton was made Of it. The recurrence of
two similar accidents In this city within
the last week, has indueedius to mention
the fact as a caution to housekeepers
and others, against the use Of andirons
Of this description. We have known
now ofthree different explosions under
exactly similar circumstances of
them fortunately harmless, but in each
case the fragment of the knob was thown
off with force enough to have killed or
seriously wounded any one whom il
might have struck We would advise
against the useof a1difousofthis d escrip-
ton; orr they are used, Che knob should
have hole drilled in it of sufficient size
to admit the free escape ofgny air it may
contain iSciep. Amer 9zs vffa =

SDirftunl Revelations.

Buchanan's Journal Of Man, for Noyem-
ber, contains communication giving an
account of some revelations recently made
through " medium" !" in the family of a
gentleman in Pennsylvania, who is free
from the shackles of sectarianism, and
the prevailing theology" The spirit max
ing the revelations has his mission mostly
in the planet Venus, and he says, " there
has. been wonderful food in Venus, and
my presence was necessary to advise and
assist in some difficult emergencies
Concerning politics in Venus, he says ::
" Venus has truly republican form OF
government. On this beautiful planet
tyranny and oppression are unknown
here the sexes are on equal footing
Women go to the polls and vote, and ofn
hold offices in government The con-
sequence is they are more strong minded
and intelligent than the women OF our
sphere He says he travels at the rate
of fthirty-three thousand miles per second.
IF it is not too much trouble, we should
be pleased if the spirit would inform US
ho sfthe fall elections went in Fehns this
year, aud what effect women's voting
has Oh" the two great leading parties" "
