No doubt Of ii for Holmes is a sensible man,

when they are old, too. I'VE apply the " old !"

without them Of little girls, an American
poet says;
"with rosy cheeks and merry dancing curls,

Oh very beautiful are little girls
And goodly to the sight
And as to large girls" big, bouncing girls
what pity it is that they must soon be
"women stately, matronly, queenly women,
who are only not angels because they are not
girls who, by by, are not angels either,
but vastly more charming than any members Of

with whom lie was acquainted. As the
usual salutations were passed, the Doctor
happened to cough.
"Why DOCTOR" said the sexton, ayou

had that :"
"Look here, MR." said the doctor
with show of indignation, "what Is your

"Nine shllings," was the reply.

Mr.. Bardott looked surprised. Alter
tering his tone
Come, Miss Sarah, / meant no harm
You know l love you, offer you my
hand and my heart, marry me, and YOU
will be above the world, you will have
wealth, station, and instead Of depending
upon the world, the world will court YOU
rs Mrs. Bardott, you will be at tho head
of society, and admired by all, besides,
your husband will love and protect you
aud be proud of you"
The young lady calmly waited until he
finished.
"Mr. Bardott I have slrevdy told YOU
will not marry you, and my opinion il
unchanged
Bardott was an old bachelor Of ffty,
sensuality had claimed his homage all his
life. and thinking a young aud handsome
wife would serve him better IN his latter
days, he had time and again proposed to
Sarah, but, as is seq, With no success
Her reply irritated him.
"fou again reject my proposition
We'll do rs you please, but when turl
would not bring the boy down the apple
tree, stones did," and hastily snatchinp
up his hat, lie left the house, slamlning

Here now was another great trouble 70
the anprotected female. Those who styled
themselves christians, had turned her out,
with no house to 60 TO where she could
demand protection, necessity forced upon
her the only alternative left her, and here
she was not safe. Suppose Bardott would
do what his threats induced her to believe,
what could she do, or what should she
dot
There is one who sticketh closer than q
brother, and in Hin she had rested her
hopes for succor and protection.
And this is the treatment Of the world :;
had homo and protection been granted
her, and her money was offered for it, the
helpless orphan would have been placed
out Of the reach Of harm, and in situa-
tion at once above suspicion but those
who had made open professions of chris.
tianity had refused her, and she was now
LEFT with no one TO protect her,
but her immaculate virtue, and Gods
assistance. A determined mind can ac-
complish much, aud now that Sarah had
finally made up her mind wha, course to
pursue, she was resolved to do so.
The next morning she proceeded to the
Office OF the Daily to insert an adyer-
fisement, offering her services as music
teacher. Having done this, she returned
to her home.

Deep Observation-Disclosures of Corn
Preservation of Potatoes, &c.

MEssRs. EDIToRs-It being a wet day
unfit for out door business, thought would
seize this opportunity of putting few
thoughts together and sending you for your
disposal. have noticed some pieces in your
paper on deep plowing, which, in the main,
think correct, and which has been my prac-
tice for years. But when break with spon-
toons or turning plOws, am always govern
ed, as to depth, by the depth of the soil as
my experience is, that plowing with these
kind of piows, or any turning plow, If you
stir up the clay, and throw it TO the top, you
injure your land, unless it 10 well manured,
and then you may plow as deep as you
please. Nor am in favor Of turning plows
for common land, unless you have manured
broadcast they will then do in order to
throw under or cover mp the manure. Nor
NIL in favor of turning in old or dead grass
much prefer burning it, for observation has
taught me that where the grass has been
burned, corn and cotton comes up and grows
off better than where is has not been burned.
| said was In favor Of deep plowing. Il
must be with the right sort Of plow, which
is either your subsoi or common Coi,eer
Plotu. With these you may plow as deep
as you please. which win add TO the improve
ment and produc0Sn of your land. In lS4b,
q think that wg1 the dry yearJ1 broke up
all my land w,.h Couliers, as deep asI could,
and then pl>~ed all nay corn and cotton over
with tbs same plows, still trying 70 90 little
deeper than at frat The resnit was, my
land plowed mellow and moist al the year,
and I made plenty Of corn, and some TO spare,
for sold several hundred bushels, with no
more rain than my neighbors. think the
Coulter plow the best aud cheapest plow
that walhaye among Us.

of daughters Of members Of the Academy

sundry German princes. Gentlemen that
applied for wives paid an entrance fee,
and in the course Of the negotiation sun

sum. When it became necessary to
