too light and SOW too late and till too SLOW
enly-and nine of the ten will unhesitating-

carefully as to the habits of these same
farmers, and you will find FIVE or six of
them practicing habitually the very errors
they SO freely condemn-shallow plowing
scanty fertilizing, late sowing, shabby tilling,
and probably feeding off their meadows,
gnawing down their pastures keeping more
stock than they can feed well, and SO impoy-
erish their land from year to year.

The Throne or Soioman.

| The following account Of a remarkabl,
piece of Mechanism is from Persian man
uscript called the history Of Jerusalem. -
1t purports to be description of the throne
of King Solomon, and if the details are cor.
rsrtly givon it undoubtedly surpasses any
specimen of mechanism produced in modern
times, Notwithstanding the wonderful inven
tions which have taken place in every branch
of science:
The sides of it were of pure gold. the feet
of emerald and rubes, ,intermixed with pears
each of which were as big as the egg of an
ostrich. The throne had seven steps; on
each side were delineated orchards full OF
trees, the branches of which were of pre-
cious stones, representing fruit ripe and un-
ripe; on the tops of the trees were to be
seen figures of plumaged birds, particularly
the peacock, the etaub, and the kurnes.-
All these birds were followed within artif-
cially, so as occasionally to utter a thousand
meiodious notes, such as the ear of mortals
never heard. On the first were delineated
vine branches. having punches of grapes,
composed of various sorts of precious stones,
fashioned in such a manner as to represent
the various colors of purple, violet, green.
and red, SO as to render the appearance Of
real fruit. On the steps on each side Of the
throne were two lions. of terrible aspect, as
large as life, formed Of cast gold.
The nature of this remarkable throne
was such, that when Solomon placed his foot
ON the first step, the birds spread forth their
wings and made a futtering noise in the
air. On his touching the second step, the
two lions expanded their claws. On his
reaching the third step, The whole assembly
of demons. fairies and men repeated the
praise of the deity When he arrived at
the fourth step, voices were heard address
ing him in the following manner, "Son of
David, be thankful for the blessings the Al
mighty has bestowed upon you The same
was repeated on his reaching the fifth step.
On his arrival at the sixth all the children
of Israel joined them and on HE arrival
at the seventh, all the throne, birds and an
inal. L-eane I'm motion, and ceased not un-
til he had placed himself in the royal seat,
when the birds, lionsand other animals, BY
secret springs, discharged shower Of the
most precious perfumes on Solomon after
which two of the kurnes descended and
placed the golden crown upon his head
Before the throne was a column of bur
nished gold, on the top Of which was a gol-
den dove, which held in its beak volume
bound in silver. In this book were written
the psalms of David and the dove having
presented the book to the king, he read
aloud portion of it to the children Of Isra-
el. 1t is further related, that the up-
proach of a wicked person to the throne the
lions were wort TO set up terrible roaring
aud lash their tails with violence; the birds,
also began to bristle up their feathers; and
the assembly, also, of demons and genii,
to utter the most horrid cries, so that for
fear of them no person dared to be guilty of
falsehood, but confessed their crimes. Such
was the throne Of Solomon, the son cf Da-

must enter certain large and unoccupied

Of the house, which was unsuspectingly de-
livered to them, the holder never dreaming
of the purpose for which it was to be used.
They entered the house, and there was
soon heard coming from within, by gentle
man passing, the most terrific screams. He
declares that it sounded as If some one was
suffering from the fear and pain Of a muir
derer's knife. A female medium was taken
possession of. it seems, by the spirit Of
murdered man whose bones were declared
to DC buried in the cellar. and SO she imita-
ted his dying agonies. The spirits finally
ordered the digging up Of the bones, and
designated certain gentleman to use the
spade. 1t is asserted, though We know not
with how much truth, that the medium was
taken up bodily by the spirits, and carried
to place on the cellar bottom, directly over
the alleged deposit of the bones. And
here, oh reader. the man Of the spade
stripped and went to work. After dig

strange delusion. IF there is no devil, as

The DailIia.

We do not know one single gem in Flo
ra's diadem, more exqulsitcly beautiful than
the dahla aud there is nothing easier of
culture and propagation. and nothing that
continues logger in bloom. The wonder is
that it is net more generally cultivated at
the south. For dahlias this season COM
mencd blooming in April, and they have
been one dense mass of bloom ever since,
with prospect of continuing so until frost
The forms rang from the exquisite double
cup to the open lotal Some are singularly
unique and beansh.l; for instance, deep
crimson with a single white petal, scarlet
and white, yellow and red, variegated, and
all the thousand fancy forms and colors
which Flora in her wilde., gayest freaks
could possibly assume. Ths dahlia thrives
and blooms best in a sandy sol--too rich a
soil makes it too bushy. Where the soil IS
naturally rich, shovelful of sand put around
the tubers will be of great service and
when it is naturally poor shovelful Of we'll
rotted manure will be the same. But the
dahla loves water, and, when the season Is
not reasonably wet, it must have artificial
watering We commend its culture tc
all lovers of the beautiful.
Many who cultivate dahlias are not aware
of the ease with which the plant may be OBJ
tanned from the seed. This may be gather
ed in sufficient quantities at the season o.
the year from almost any plant which
has blossomed freely during the summer
If sown in the spring in rich warm soil
with southern exposure, they will. without
any extra care. produce plants which vii
blossom abundantly during the same season
The practice of keeping the tubers through
the winter is quite unnecessary. e1cep
for the preservation of choice varieties
Those obtained from the seed will com
mence blossoming somewhat later in th'
season than the others, but early enough t

Eashionables Abroad.

Mr. Charles Astor Rristed, our city's dis
tinguished representative at the high Court
of Fashion, who writes to the Home Jour
nal from 'Numero 20, Rue Barbel de Juoy,'
that he can find in Paris no gloves ft to
vs"ar though he has mot had hand, and
his glove bill exceeds 500 per annum,
appears to have been fallen in with during
his travels BY our dear countrymaD, j.
Ross Browne, who, in his 'Yusef,'' Just pub
ilshed daguerreotypes him as follows.
N. Y. Tlfbnnc
When first saw him, he was on the way
from Florence to Milan, in quest of pair
of paptaloons of particular style. No man
IN Europe understood cutting except Pante-
letti- There was a set in Panteletti that
made him indispensable He had tried the
Partisan ;ailors. but they were deficient in the
knees. 1t was his intention to proceed at
once from Milan to Leipsic for boots the
Germans were the only people who brought
boots to perfection, and decidedly the best
were to be had at Lepsic. He expected to
be obliged to return to Paris for shirts
there was set in the collar Of the Partisan
shift that suited him. His medicines he
always purchased in London his cigars he
was forced to import from Havana his La
takia tobacco he was compelled to purchase
himself in Smyrna, and this was partly the
occasion Of his present visit. As TO wines,
ii was nonsense to undertake TO drink any
but the pure Johannesberg-which he gen.
orally saw bottled on the Rhine every sum
mer, in order to avoid imposition. His win
ters he spent chiefly in Spain il was the
only country where good cream was tO be
h.tI lt,t L..
sometimes had to cross the Pyrenees for
want of good cup of coffee. No mode Of
travelling suited Linn exactly-in fact, he
disliked travelling. Riding he hated. be-
cause it jolted him, walking. because It tir-
cd him the snow because it was cold the
sun because it was warm: Rome. because il
was damp; Nice, because il was dry; Athens
because It was dusty. (By the way. dis
liked Athens myself, chiefly on that account;
Bimby was right there.) But it was i'm
possible for him to live in America again
What could any man Of taste DO there =
No pictures, no ruins, no society, no opera,
no classical associations-nothing at all, ex-
cept business and all sorts Of business he
despised.
II was a ridiculous As well as vulgar way
Of spending life. In fact, the only decent
people he had met with were the French
man might contriye to exist while In Par
is. Not that he approved altogether Of the
French language It wanted depth and rich
ness the only language worthy of man
of sense was the Sanscrit. As soon As he
had suited himself in boots at Leipsic. he
was going to perfect himself in Sanscrit at
the University Of Berlin; after which he
hoped to recover from the effects of hard
study by tour through Bavaria, which was
the only country on the face of the earth
where the beer was fit to drink

STATE OF THINGS IN ENGLAND.-The
London correspondent Of the New York
Commercial Advertiser. in his letter of the
Sd inst, says:
The London money market continues in
a very quiet state. and funds show much
steadiness The commerce of the country
and the condition of business in all the man
ufacturing towns is uniformly prosperous,
pauperism, except as regards the incorrigi-
BILE few who are unable to emerge from the
habits of foreign epoch, being absolutely
extinct. Good wages are everywhere OBJ
tainable, while, at the same time all the
comforts of life are brought within reach in
an unparalleled degree by the influence Of
extended trade Notwithstanding repeated
augmentations in wages. higher rates and
shorter hours are still constantly being de-
manded, and it is plain that this will 60
on and will cause an increase of that happy
movement of the most intelligent and op-
pr essed classes on the continent towards this
country, which has been long in progress
and which will tend to perpetuate the
strength we already owe to the constant
blending Of various elements.

JUDGE GENTLY.

Oh, there has many tear been shed,
And many heart been broken,
For want of gentle hand stretched forth.
Or a word OF kindness spoken.
Then, oh, with brotherly regard
Greet every son of sorrow,
So from each tone OF love his heart
New hope, new strength, shall borrow.
Nor turn with cold and scornful eye,
From him who hath offended,
But let the harshness of reproof
With kindest tones be blended
The seeds of good are everywhere,
And, in the guiltiest bosom,
May, by the quickening rays of love,
Put forth the tender blossom.
While many a tender soul hath been
To deeds of evil hardened,
Who felt that bitterness of grief
The first offence unpardoned
