HOW TO PREVENT BIRDS FROM PULL
ING UP CORN.

As it will soon be time to plant corn thought
would give you the method practiced by farmers
in this neighborhood to prevent birds from pulling
il up-yiz-with bushel of seed mix about one
pint of tar, which is done by putting it in tight
vessel and pouring the tar over 1t, then put on
water warm enough to partially melt the tar; stir
up with a stick, drain off the water, and mix in
enough lime, plaster or ashes, or mixture Of all
three to dry the corn and prevent 1t from sticking
to the hands while planting.
II can be done in fifteen minutes unless you
wish to soak the corn If you do, let it soak in the
tar water.
The object of the birds does not seem to be to
destroy the crop, but the very laudable one Of
obtaining t6od--consequen after trying hill
or two and finding the tar very unpaatable, they
let il alone. Even the hens after getting taste,
give it up as a bad job and have never knocn o.
heard of corn treated in this way being injured by
the worms.
BY this method Farmers may save themselves
the trouble Of putting up scare-crows, which
ce,taialy add nothing TO the looks Of the field

THE BOY OF PRINCIPLE.

Previous to the late Presidential election, Mrs.
H. took her little son, about four years old, upon
her lap and tried to impress upon his mind the
difference between liberty and slavery. She told
him the story of some children sold from their pa
rents and asked him how he would feel If some
wicked men should sell him away from his father
and mother and grandmother and sister, and bel
were never permitted to see them any morei His
little heart was too full for utterance. lie went
away to his play and the circumstance was forgotten
by the mother
A few weeks after, the dictionary spirit began TO
run high. The boys about the streets were shout
ign Iurrah for Scott-lIurrah for Pierce little Ed
win came running to his mother with great anxiety
in his cOuntenance.
"Does Scott sell, mother? does Scott sell"
"What do you mean, my SON."
"Will Scott sell children 2"
al do not know that he would sell them" said
the mother. but he sustains those that do SELL"
"Does Pierce self
His principles are tho same with Scott" re-
piled the mother.
"Well," said our little philosopher, al will
never hurrah for them. Who can ] hurrah for,

"IIalc," said tho mother, sis opposed to slavery
and TO the selling of children"
{" Hurrah for Hale, them" and he made tho halls
ring again.
al want flag, mother"
| And his mother could find no rest till she had
made little flag with the names Of Hale and
Julian upon it. And every day as the boys would
pass shouting for Scott or Pierce, little hero
would rush into the street with his little flag waving
in the breeze, and cry, "IIurrah for Hale and Ju-
lian."
The father was agood deal annoyed at his sons
politics, for he was a strong Scott lie tried
in vain for time to induce his son to hurrah
for Scott One day his father came in and called
his little son to him.

His eyes sparked for the present.
"Don't you want some candy. ball, little
HORSE or n whip" And cnumerating the toys till
the excitement grew to an ecstacy the father then
offered him dollar, and said
"You may have that, and 60 to the toy shop and
lay it all out in toys and candy-get just as much
as you please, if you will 60 out in the street and
hurrah for Scott"
Edwin looked at the dollar for n moment, and
then raised his form to the greatest capacity and
said.

LOUIS NAPOLEON AND THE SULTAN DE-
sCENDED FROM AMERICAN ANCESTORS.

The past history Of the families Of Louis Napol-
con and the Sultan Of Turkey is full Of interesting
and marvellous incidents some of which are, prob
ably not generally known 10 our readers.
These two monarchs, now cordially united in
the struggle to maintain the integrity Of the Otto
man empire, are both grandsons of American
ladies. These ladies were born and raised in the
same neighborhood, on the island Of Martinique,
one of the West Indies. They were of French
origin, and companions and intimate friends in
childhood and youth. They were Josephine de
Tascher and n Miss S..
The history of Josephine is generally known
She went to France, and was married to NJ. de
Beauharnas, by whom she had one son, Eugene,
and daughter, Hortcnse. Some time after the
death of Beauharnais, Josephine was married to
Napoleon Bonaparte, and became empress of
France. Her daughter, llortense was married to
Joseph Bonaparte, then King Of Holland, and the
present Emperor Of France is her son by that mar
riage.
Miss S. Quilted the island Of Martinique some
time before her friend. But the vessel that was
carrying her to France was attacked and taken by
the Agerinc Corsairs, and the crew and passengers
made prisoners. But this Corsair ship was in turn
attacked and pillaged by Tunis pirates, and Miss
s. was carried by them to Constantinople, and
offered for sale slave. Her extraordinary
beauty and accomplishments found her purchaser
in the Sultan himself; and she soon became tn,
chief lady of the SeTagio and Sultaness Of Turkey
Mahomoud III, was her son, and the present Sultan
/, Abdul Medjid is the son Of Mahomoud.
Thus the two soyereigns who now occupy 81
large q space in the worlds eye are grandsons O
two American creole girls, who were paymates il
, their youth; and were as remarkable for thei
beauty and excellent dispositions, for their vare,
and singular fortunes.
Both these women, in the height Of their power
remembered all the friends Of their youth and pro
vided muni6cently for their welfare. Many of tn
relatives Of this Sultaness left the island of Mar
J Unique, and settled at Consantnople, where the
descendants still reside, and enjoy the favor of tn
Sultan.
. The Sultaness died in lSll the Empress Joseph
S inc in 1874 and their grandsons now rule over tw
; wide and powerful empires; and are entering, a
J, friends and allies, upon of the most momentou
and sanguinary struggles in which Europe wa
? ever involved

HAYTIEN CLEANLINESS.

As have alluded to the inordnate consumption
Of soap by the IIaytien, may as well mention
here how il is consumed. / have spoken in n
previous letter Of their cleanliness. They are as
punctual Mussulmen in their ablutions, and
IL 10 the greatest delight Of all classes and espec-
tally OF the females, to appear in garments fresh
and stiff from the ironing table. No matter how
cheap and humble the fabric, the very poorest
class will find soap and starch enough to crafty
this pardonable vanity. But with all their wash
ing never saw but one wash-tub in all lIayti,
and that was in the horse pond at Port au Prince
and little negro was padding himself about in
IL for amusement. All their clothes are washed
la the running streams. They have no idea Of
the economy Of suds, but rub the soap upon the
garments and then wash them in the running
water OF course, at least four-ffths of the soaI
70 wasted.
In their defence it may be said, that wooder
tubs in that climate would require amount o.
room and care which it is not always convenient
for the poorer classes to furnish; and then tho
cost Of transporting water is an obstacle to many
80 that, with their imperfect powers Of calcula
ton, it has been found most advantageous to sub
nit 10 tue heavy tax imposed upon their soap by
ths Naisds Of the streams.7N y Er Post

HOW TO DECOMPOsE BONES.

If one lives in the city, and has but small
yard, with nice grass plat, and few nice trees
and shrubs the quantity Of manure needed will not
be great. He should throw the bones, egg shells,
&c. of the kitchen into barrel, and throw ON
them wood ashes and water which will dissolve
them without any smell and in the course Of a
year make great deal Of the very best manure
for all sorts Of fruit trees. If he has large farm
or garden and has access to large quantities Of
bones, he may decompose them as did the neigh
Dor Of a correspondent of the NeU England
Farmer lie made layers of horse manure and
bones alternately until the pile was several feet
heated, or frefanged and in short time no sign
Of bone could be seen.
Farmers clean up your door yards, and by this
process The manure will be just the thing for
your turnip patch.-O Ohio Farmer.

MARTYRD0M AT ROME.

A correspondent Of the New York Crusader,
writing from Rome, says:-
"The prisons Of Diocletian are deep, narrow,
and damp. No daylight shines into these caves
pure air is breathcd by the unfortunate inmates
the food is Of the worst kind, and better yctuals
cannot be obtained even with money. The prison
ers are not allowed a spoon, fork, or knife they
are compelled to eat like brutss, and are not per-
mitted TO see any friend or relative. These jails
may be compared to hell on earth; the keepers
are cruel and without any feeling. Here are
chained hundreds of political criminals.
a young man from Bologna, full Of genius,
and Of promising success, called GavazEi, and q
nephew to the illustrious Crusader Of Italy, had
been imprisoned in the Baths Of Diocletian for
five years. Being reduced by tortures and priva-
tions almost to skeleton, the physician applied to
the Cardinal-Vicar to grant him more healthy
abode, asserting that the poor youth could not
live longer in his present position.
"The favor was refused At last, on tho night
Of February lst., the patient grew worse; the
doctor was called for, who on examining the Ian
gushing patriot, exclaimed that all lost, and
there was no more hope Of saving his life.
The poor victim smiled at the idea Of his ply
sician, and said IF tie body is lost The soul trili
be sdred!' The chaplain, Cupuchin friar, came
to administer the sacraments and to read the
prayers. But Gavazzi refused to confess, and
would not listen to any advice or threatening OF
eternal damnation. This mournful news reached
the cars Of the Holy Father, who, protesting tc
desire that zone Gavazzi' at least should die in
the bosom Of the Catholic Church, despatched tc
the living tomb my Lord Matteucci who enjoys .
wide reputation Of being able to convert the mos
firm unbelievers. But even this prelate proved o.
no avail When he spoke to the young man o
Christ, the patient answered that he believed il
Him, but Christ never prosecuted or taught hi
ministers to persecute his fellow creatures

81 am informed that the principal charg
brought by the Tribunal of the Sacred Consult
against this young man is that of having, durin
the Republic of Rome, stormed, at the head of hi
soldiers, the beautiful Villa Patrizi, which wa
the earthly paradise of the ferocous Patriz. Fo
this he was sentenced to twenty years imprisor
ment in the Baths of Diocletian."

MISERY AND ITS ANTIDoTE.

wherever go, some poor body or other is being
assisted; yet it doesn't seem to make the misery
less"
Every true, Mr.. Jolffc," answers the doctor
"and ], who am always among the poor, see great

almost to starvation, they will not 60 to the work.
