The Governor and his Bedfellow

Among the many ludicrous mistakes and
occurrences which have been related as
growing out OF the extreme plalnness and
simplicity of the dress, appearance, habits
aud tastes OF Thomas Chluenden the first
Governor Of Vermont, the following was
told Us by one of the Governors cotempo-
rarles many years ago, and subsequently by
another, with SO much minuieness as to re-
move at once all doubts Of authenticity:
One fall, when the Legislative were to
meet at Norwich, we think it was. the GOV.
ernor, who lived at Wllliston, took it into
his head to go on foot TO his post of official
duty, distance of abou; eighty miles Ac-
cordingly making up his pack, he started
off on foot and alone for his destination, and
brought up at night at the house of new
settler, into which he entered and craved
lodgings for the night
Well, stranger" said the settler in re-
ply, amer eyeiug tbs new conner an instant.
"we haven't much to- eat, aud but one bed
for myself and wife but You look as if you'
might put up with dish Of bread and milk 4,
and could sleep ON the floor without hurt
ing you"
"Oh, certainly" said the Governor, " as
hungry aud tired as am, with night so
dark as this without, shall be thankful to
stay even at that"
In pursuance Of this arrangement, the
Governor, without making himself known,
pariook u the proposed meal, camped down
on the floor with his pack for pillow, and
was soon buried IN slumber.
During the night there was a driving
shower, which though 1t did not awaken
any of the hard sleepers within, was yet so
severe as TO rout an old sow, with a litter
of pigs, from her nest in the yard when
the restless animal, in search of dryer quar-
tiers, commenced roofing at the door, watch
she at length forced open wide enough for
an entrance, and, coming in, lay down. with
her well-washed brood, by the side OF the
sui unawakened Governor, who snored on
tll daylight, when he awake, and for the
first time became aware of the presence of
his bedlellows. He did not disturb them,
however. or his humane entertainers, but
silently strapped on his pack, aud leaving
a haIi-crown for his lodgings on the table,
proceeded on his journey.
The settler was considerably mortified
when he arose and saw how matters had
been, but thought not much of it nll two
days after, when having concluded to 90
himself 10 Lection" and having reached
the place Just as the ceremonies were COM
mencing, who should he see at the read of
the procession, but the pIain-ookiug foot
pad who Jared so oddly at his house.
Mho-what is that man, walking there
with the big bugs in frontl" he eagerly
asked OF an acquaintance.
"Why, don't you know! That is the
Governor
"The Governor Governor Chlenden ?"
Yes, but what is there abou. him that
dslurbs you SO much 2"
"Oh, nothing-only a strange circum-
stance-and by hockey what will my wife
say p
What was III
Well, considering, | guess if The Gov
ernor don't tell ont, | won't"
Aud he did not. said our inlormer, but
the Governor did, and had many hearty
laugh about it.-Bee.

How the Continentals stood in
Arms.

TO man they wore small clothes, COM
ing down and fastening Just below the
knee, and long stockings. with cowhlde
shoes, ornamented with large buckles, while
no, pair of boots graced the company.
The coats and walsicoats were loose and OF
huge dimensions, with colors as various as
the bafks of oak, sumach, and other trees
of our hills and swamps could make them,
and their shirts were all made OF flax, and
like every other part of the dress, were
homespun. On their heads was worn a large
round-top broad-brimmed hat. Their arms
were as various as their costume; here an
old soldier carried queens arm, which had
done service at the conques, of Canada,
twenty years previous, while by his side
walked stripping boy, with Spanish fuzee
not half its weight aud calibre, which his
grandfather may have taken at the Havana,
while not a few had old French pieces that
dated back to the reduction of Lousbury.
Instead OF the cartridge box large powder
horn was slung under the arm, and occa-
sIonally bayonet might be seen bristling
in the ranks. Some of the swords of the
officers had been made by our Province
blacksmilhs, perhaps from some farming
utensil they looked servicesble. but heavy

THE OK SERMON.
BY THE LATE REV. DAVID MERRILL. OF PEACG
AN, VERMONT

BY THE LATE REV. DAVID MERRILL OF PEACH
AN, NERNoNr.
published by eqae., Ola dend Of the Liquor Law.
Among the laws given by the divine Law
giyer through Moses to the Jews, was the
following :" If any on gore man or a
woman that they die, then the OK shall be
surely stoned but the owner of the OK shall
be quit. But If the OK Dere front 10 push
with his horn in times past, anu II hath been
testified 10 his owner, aud he hath not kept
HIM in, but he hath killed a man OF a wo-
man, the OK shall be stoned, and his owner
also shall be put to death" Exodus 81
IS, %.
The principle Of the law is avery plain
one, and a very broad one-here applied in
a specific case, but extending 10 ten thou
sand others. II is this. Every man is re-
sponsible to God for evils which result from
his selishness, or his indifference TO the
welfare of others.
Ages before this law was given, God
says TO Noah, "Your blood of your lives
will require a, the hand Of every beast

4 A stigma shah be fixed upon man or beast
that shall destroy him who is made after the

any way the result Of his car elessness OF
sel6shness. From any thing within hI'

a result. But if the OK had been wOat Il

A GESTLEMAN FARMER. A Gentle
man Farmer is usually understood, in
this country, TO be one who possesses
some money, and very little, if any,
agricultural knowledge. He pays for
his information as he gets 1t, and, if en-
lowed with a moderate share of pru-
d snce, abstans from being lavish Of his
opinions before his practical hired Ia
borers. When he assumes the direction
OF things, his orders have very much the
appearance ot declaration OF hostility
against first principles, being often IT,
reconcilable with each other, and some
what at variance with the laws of ma
ture. Like newly made colonel at a
militia muster, he is apt to get the rank
and file into hard knot, without know.
ing by what earthly process he shall dis
entangle them, putting them as they
were. He can sympathize with the sal
lor's embarrassment In plougbiDg, who
managed loleraby well before the wind
but in going about missed stays, and in
volved the whole team in nextricnble
confusion. He fills his barn and corn
crib at an expense, which may well en-
title the contents of the latter TO the ap-
pellation of golden grain" He talks
learnedly of crops, and buys his yegela-
bles has the most wonderful cows. and

newly invented churns, and is furnished

his hens crystal palaces with many Gu
rious devices, TO induce them TO become

If he can eat few of his own eggs at

supply on his poor neighbors, who can
at any time sell him basket full, hur-

his fruit, as perennial source of conso-

SWEET Com. A correspondent; of the
New England Farmer, among other peril
nent questions, asks, How does sweet
corn affect the soil on which it is raised
has it been tried as food for stock and if
so, with what success ?" We have had
some little successful experience, for the
last five or SIX years, in raising sweet corn,
for the table, and for fodder; and that en-
perience has taught us that sweet corn ex-
hausts the soil just about in proportion as
the stalk IS larger and more nutritious than
the northern yellow corn. The kind of
sweet corn we have raised grows about
eight feet high, the ears eight or ten inches
long, large white and plump kernel, and
ten rows TO the ear, the piih of dark red
color, aud is called the Evergreen Sweet
Corn. The seed was procured from Ohio
some eight years since For fodder we sow
1t III drills, three feet apart, and drop the
kernels from six 10 ten inches apart. The
yield Of fodder the last year was at the rate
OF seven tons to the acre. Our horses and
cows leave the best Of hay to luxuraie upon
sweet-corn stalks, well cured, and run
through the straw cutter. The stalks of
the sweet corn are large, and require much
care IN curing to prevent mould. They
should stand erect in the barn, or wherever
sheltered, and enjoy the benefit Of air.
Cutting the stalks as near the ground as
possible, we leaned the tops of two rows
together, leaving here aud there stalk I'M
cut, aud placing from ten to twenty stalks
together near the top, to prevent falling.
In this manner the stalks dried rapidly,
and gathering them before the heavy aud
late rams, we have not lost pound of fod-
der Sweet corn should be piau,ed, or
sown in drills, or broad cast, (if any prefer }
al the same time that common corn is pant
ed. The richer and deeper the soil, the
more sure and abundant the crop. We
have about a bushel of sweet corn for seed,
aud can accommodate a few early appli-
cants with good seed, if it be wanted, at the
rate OF hity cents per quart
