Boys.-Boys, when they arc boys,
arc queer enough. How many ride,
ulous notions they have, and what sin.
gular desires, which in after life change
and shape themselves into characters
tics. Who remembers when he
would have changed his birth-right for
a rocking horse, and new suit of clothes
for monkey Who forgets the
sweet faced girl, older than himself
against whose golden hair he leaned
and wcpt his griefs away ? Who
reccollects when the thought Of being
circus rider appeared greater than
to be president ani how jealously he
watched the little fellows that wore
spangIed jackets and turn somersets,
and prayed to become like them i
memory preserve not these caprices
or something similar, the boy is los,
in the man. Happy visions, they
come but once and 60 quickly, lcav
ing us ever to sigh for return ofwhat
can never be again.

g We find the following ir the Able
4yille Banaer OF the nth inst, that its)
may prove Q lesson to some misguided
youth, we re- publish its
a Melancholy Confession.
We were shown by our Tax. Collec4
tor, on yesterday, a atendollar bill with
the following endorsement upon it,
written perhaps by some penitent.
young man, who, mourning over his
tollies, would warn Others from follow
ing in his footsteps :7''Y ouths beware
of gambling; this is the last of stsssnty-
three thousand dollars, left me by my
good old christian father, the i st Of
November, 1851, this is the lst of.
September, 1852, all spent at the
gambling table in Charleston"
How startling and full Of melancholy
tkis confession, that the ample legacy
which fond parent after years of toll
and denial had accumulated, and left
to his child, should thus in the brief
space Of ono year, be recklessly spent
at the gaming table! How potent the
spell which could thus lad on step by
step the deluded votary to his doom.
Perhaps, now, he who was once the
possessor of this fortune, is suffering
the pinchings of poverty, and in the
bitterness of his soul is Keeping the
fruits of his folly,a friendIess and
homeless wanderer. OF all tho vices
young and old are addicted to, there
is none more seductive md fatal in its
consequences, than that Of gaming; tits
the syren song, which lures incautious
youth to ruin; or tho Dead Sea fruit,
which is beautiful to the sight, but
turns to ashes in the taste. To the
gambling table how many young men
can trace back the commencement of
their downfall and utter ruin? Gamb
ling and drinking are twin sisters and
rarely found separate. Is. there then
no young man in our midst to whom
the warning Of this happy youth may
be repeated lfso, we would say be-
ware Of the destinations of the gaInb-
ling table, and in the language of the
poet:
"Look round, the wrecks Of play behold,
| Estates dismember'd, morigaged, sold,
Their owners now 10 Jail confined,
Show equal poverty of mind"

CHEAPER THAN MArcuEs.-The edi-

course of an article upon the "Frcaks

out the following spiritual manifesto
tions:"
sharpening to be in the parlor Of a
friend a few evenings since, he favor
ed us with the exhibition Of very
pretty electrical experiment. His
daughter walked briskly across the
floor once or twice, and then rapidly
approached an entinguished gasburn-
er, touched it with her fingers, and in:
stantly the escaping fluid burst in
to flame! 1t was an entire new way of
lighting the gas, and involved q
great saving of matches. Any per.
son in the room if their shoes and
boots were not wet, could produce the
same effect. The sparks of electrici.
ty emitted at the instant Of the con.
tact with the metal of the burner igni

g g. Stewart, Esq, in recent Ad-
dress before the Ohio Agricultural So.
cioty, thus speaks on this subject:
Many farmers who are destroying
the productiveness Of their farms
By shallow work, as they find that
their crops are diminishing, think on
ly of extending their area by add.
ing acres Of surface, as if they sup.
posed that their title deeds only gave
them right to six inches deep of
earth. II they will take those deeds,
satudy} their meaning, and apply the
ss1essonstofthei fields, thev will soon re-.
salize5in three-fold crops the fact that
tho low has given them three farms
Swhere they supposed they had. but
Sone-in other words, that the subsoil
brought up and combined with the
top.soil, and enriched with the atnos-
phcric influences, and those other ,le-
Inents which agricultural science will
teach them to apply to their gronnd,
will increase thrcc-told the measure of
Its productiveness. TO show to what
extent the fertility of the soil can be
Increased, | refer TO statement in the
last Patent Office Report. In the
year 1850, there were nine comneti
tors for the premium corn crop Of ken
Stucky, each Of whom cultivated 10
acres. Their average crop was about
'ssl22 bushels per acre. At that time
the average crop of wheat per acre in
the harvests Of Great Britain, on a
}soil cultivated for centuries, is about
double that produced on the virgin
soil of Ohio. Why is this? Simply
because British farmers arc educated
men, apply work wisely. They pay buck
TO the earth what they borrow; they
endeayor by every means in their
power, to enrich their ground, and
IN return it enriches them. If our farm
Sers, instead oflaboring to double their
acres: would endeavor to double their
crops, they would find it vast saving
of time and tol, and on increase
sofprofts.
ssS Many ofthen never think ofdigging
ten inches into : the soil, lnless they
have dreamed about 4 crock of gold
ND IN the earth: but if they would
set about the work of digging III earn
ssst, every man would find his stock of
gold, without the aid Of dreams and d.
}Vination.
We have great advantage over the
British farmers in the fact that our
farmers nearly oil hold the lands which
they cultivate, in fee simple, while in
England they are chiefly tenants, hi
ring the lands Of the nobility, paying
enormous rents to the proprietors, be-
sides heavy taxes to government.
Taxes here are comparatively light, and
our farmers are their own landlords.
Hence they have been able to pay three
fold wages for labor to those paid in
Europe, pay the costs of transporta-
ton, and yet undersell the ritish
farmers in their own markets.
