lNDusrRY.-Tob be really and practically
industrious, one must improve those minute
particles Of time, known as "spare minutes.'
OF all portions of our life, these spare min
ules are the most fruitful for good OF evil,
and are literally the gaps through which
temptation finds access to the soul. Spare
minutes are gold dust of time, said Young
sands make the mountains, moments make
the year Idlencss wastes man as insen-
sibly as Industry improves him evil deeds
and evil thoughts never creep in upon him
who is assiduously employed upon good ones.
The mind and body both require activity to
keep them pure and healthy in action
Like water, il it runneth free, it is pure and
wholesome but what is there more noisome
and pestilential than stagnant pool? Dill

seven years ago. He had died from the ef-

about as thick headed os many OF the officers OF
the officers OF tho Old Colony road, started in
round eyed wonder The occupant of the box
repeated, with some impatience:
'Tm on my head. tell you! Turn mo over
quick"
The frightened baggage master. with con-
siderable trepidation, placed the box in a
horizontal position, when tho voice cried out:
"That wont do! You've put me on my face.

Importance Of Good Fencing.

It is an old maxim that experience is the
best schoolmaster; and it is only by practical
experience that we are to become established
in the best coarse. / am aware there are
certain fixed principles which may be learned
from books, and which always remain the same
in all countries and in all ages; vet to know
how to apply these principles Is the result
OF experience l am now fifty.fve years of
age; though it is but seven years since / com
menced my agricultural life. During these
seven years have read and reflected mnch
made meany observations. and purformed
much labor: though have but begon to learn
the secrets ofthis graet and most important
calling. and am thus but poorly qualified to
instruct my brethren in the same profession.
Yet. with your leave I will offer lew hints
which are the result ofmy hitherto short
agricultural experience and observations.
And first, have learned the Importance OF
coed fences. II is in vain. and worse than vain,
to'plant and sow, having but poor enclosure
to the field. There is nothing so voxatous.
and sotrying to patience, as the destruction
of crops when halfgrown, by cattle and ho-
gs. have seen i'm moro cases than one. a
promising field Of corn and wheat literally
destroyed for the want Of proper fence. I
have adopted the plan Of splitting my rails
largo enough for seven of them 10 be sufficient
to make the fence FIVE feet high. making use of
the smallest until il is four rails high, put
ting the largest rails on the top, as they are
not SO easily blown off by the heavy winds.
make my line fences from eight to nine
rails high, partition fences seven.
Another error prevails among the best of our
farming community. Instead Of having bars or
gates, thoy will let down their fence for years,
which costs more timo for repairs in tho cou-
rse of year than would suffice to build two
gates. A man will build good and cheap ga

The incenscd official was about suitinS the
action to the word. when tho conductor OF he
train approached tho dsputants, and he recog-
nized in the proprietor ofthe box no less per-
sonago than the renowned Signor Blitz. the
ventriloqUist and wizard. The condtictor had
Witnessed the Signor's performances ins'Bos-
ton more than once, and when he understood
that the only occupant of the said box was the
automaton boy ''Robby.p who figures In tho

of the Wizard. he readily allowed him TO pass
as "dead head.' 4,
