OVERRIDING IT.-A we'll known
Methodist minister, who was travel.
ling on horseback through the
State of Massachusetts, stopped at
noon on a sultry summer day at
a cottage by the road side, and
requested some refreshmcnt for him
self and beast. This was readily
granted by the worthy New Eng.
land dame; the parson dismounted,
and having seen his horse we'll
cared for, entered the cottage and
partook of the refreshment which
was cheerfully placed before him.
For some time past there had
been no rain, and the country seem.
ed literally parched up. The min.
lster entered into conversation with
the old lady, and remarked about
the dryness o; the season.
Yes she replied, 'sunlcss We
have rain soon, all my bccts, cucum-
bers, and cabbagcs, will be good
for nothing, and l think that all the
ministers ought to pray for rain"
The worthy divine informed her
that he was minister, and that he
should be happy to. comply with
her wish. He accordingly knelt
down and prayed fervcntly that
the gates of heaven might be opened,
that showers might descend and
refresh the earth. lie then arose from
his knees, and having kindly thanked
his hostess, bade her good day, mount.
ed his horse and departed. But he
had not been gone more than
an hour when the clouds began to
gather, and tremendous shower of
hail and rain descended, with
such force as to wash the contents of
the old lady's garden clear out of
the ground. "Thcre!" said SHE, "that
is always the way with those tarn.
al Alethodists; they never undertake
to do anything but they always ov-
erdo it,"

Nut GRAss.-As the gardens of
many of our readers are troubled
with this obstinate intruder, we have
thought i. good to let them have the
benefit of the following account Of the
successful method of eradicating it,
which VIC find in the Cheraw Gazette:
"a gentleman whose garden was
ovcrrun with grass, and who had re.
sorted to every other expedicnt with
out even partial success, made an
experiment thus: lie dug up and
manured a spot about six feet in d.
amcter in his yard, and set it out
thlckly with nut grass, which he
suffered to grow for two years; in
winch time, rs the saying is, it was
as thick as the hairs on cows back
In tie spring Of the third year, as
fast AS it appeared above the ground
he shaved it off with hoe. by which
he cftectuaily prevented the growth
of foliage. La the spring Of the
fourth year, there we're but q few
scattering plants which he treated
Ill the same manner. In the sprino q
OF ts.e Gttl. year, nor since, has gpcar
OF nut grass appeared. Encourag ged
by his success, he adopted the same
plan with his garden; and the second
year he was but little troubled with
nut grass: Such a result might
readily have been inferred from the
known laws which govern vegetable
economy. 1t is we'll known that
ther9 are few plants or even trees,
which can bear being stripped for one
summer Of their foliage is essential
to roatnrinS the nut of the grass
which we are considering, and if
you prevent this, you destroy the
plant, unless there are matured nuts
OF a previous years growth on the
soil which are not in a position to
vegitate, but which subsequent tillage
may bring into such position"

The isms appear to 50 together,
according to the following statement:
"The Archbishop Of Dublin pre-
sided at a meeting of the Dub
lin Mesmeric Association a few
days since, and observed sthat he
was aware he had placed himsclfin a
position which would draw upon him
much Of obloqny aud ridicule, but he
believed that he had shoulders
broad enough to bcarit.' His grace al.
so observed shat he was a living mon
umcnt of the truth of mcsmerisn.
having suffered severely for many
years from rheumatism. When the
doctors had done their best or
worst, as the case might be, he
was advised to have recourse to
mcsmerism as a last resource. In
the course Of one wcel; he vas
perfectly cured, aud has new.
er since experienced any severe re-
turn of the complaint"
