MUTTON.

We mean to report at least thousand
times, or till what we say has some effect
on our countrymen, that a pound of lean,
tender, juicy mutton can be raised for hall
the cost of the same quantity of fat pork ;
that 1t is infinitely healthier food, especially
III the summer season; is more agreeable
to the palate, when one gets accustomed to
1t; and that those who eat it become more
muscular, and can do more work with prea-
ter case to themselves than those who eat
fat pork We know nothing more delicate
than smoked mutton hams of South-dowp
breed of shcep-venison itself is not supe-
rI"r. Sheep can be kept in fine growing
order where other domestic animals will
scarcely exist; and thousands of acres in
the State under an enlightened system of
sheep husbandry, may be made to paw
good interest where now they are nearly
dead property in the hands of their present
owners Amer. AgriculturaIist.

"DYING FOR IT."-Davis mas only one
fault-he sets too high value Oh 'dlstiiied
LIQUORS. This habit has reduced Davis to
seedy trowsers and generalship. On Mon
day last, Davis was ''dying for dram," but
as ill luck would have it, he had not the
necessary funds to realize his desires
Davis thought over the matter, and then
made rush for Remond's. He entered the
bar-room, with his hair streaming out be-
hind like comet: "For heavens sake, said
he, hand me glass of liquor-countryman
just fell down in State street and cut his
head open so that life is despaired Of" The
barkeeper few around and handed Davis
about three gills of first quality brandy
Davis seized the mug and rushed out. He
returned in about ten minutes. and said the
man was better, and had been carried to the
hospital. Barkeeper said: "Glad to hear
it," and felt like Samaritan for the re-
mainder of the day. In about two hours
after this, Davis was arrested for singing
the "Star Spangled Banner" from dry
goods box. in Broadway.

y If we die to-day the sun will shine as
brightly, and the birds sing as sweetly to-
morrow. Business will not be suspended
a moment, and the great mass will not bes-
tow thought upon our memories. Is he
dead will be the solemn inquiry of few,
a. they pass to their work. But no one
will miss US but our immediate connexions
and in a short time they will forget us and
laugh as merrily as when we sat beside
them. Thus shall we all, now active in
life, pass away. Our children crowds close
behind us, and they will soon be gone. In
few years not living creature can says
remember him. We lived in another age,
and did business with those who slumber in
the tomb. Thus is life. How rapidly it
passes!

PLANTING POTATOES

y Mr.. Shipman informs the Editor of the
Worcester Palladium" that he has planted
potatoes in the usual manner, then covered
them TO the depth of about six inches with
straw; after this no further cultivation wa
requlred-the straw kept down the weeds,
ana the potatoes were not disturbed until
they were dug. Not only has this method
produced him very superior potato. bnt
1t last year brought him an extraor-
binary yield-four bushels to the sonsro
rod or at the rate of six hundred and fortv
bushels to the acre. He has tried this
mode of culture for three years past, and
has IN every instance, found it to brine
results superior TO the common method
This year ne has planted at three different
Times with the following results: Early in
April nc planted Meshannocks in both wavs.
ana Flnkeyes under the straw; all were in
the sam" Kind of ground. The Meshanpocks
c"i.l'atod yielded two bushels and one peek
to the square rod; those covered with straw
four bushels and one peck: and tba PHIL
eyes, covered, four bushels. pi,lo,.o.
planted on the 24th of Nav, covered Nth
straw, yielded two and half busb.Is a,5
totr quarts To the square rod. They were
the smallest potatoes. Pinkeyes planted
about the last of June, covered, broupbt
two bushels and one quart to the square rod.
heSe' although the smallest yield, were the
potatoes, and of the best quality"

<.What are YOU Digging, Patln "Faith. [

E'What are you digging, Patti" "Faith,

Pat, you are digging for money!" 'WeIl,
I amt digging for anything else!" ''Have
YOU had any luck" 'First-rate luck! pays
we'll; you had better take hold" All dotted
their coats, and laid hold most vigorously
for while. After throwing out some cart
loads, the question arose: ''When did you

..Why! how much did you get 7" -Four
dollars and half" ''Why, that's rather

HE WILL NOT WOO AGAIN.

'Tis but a word, a careless word,
In pride and passion spoken;
But with that word the chain that bound
Two loving hearts was broken
The hasty wrath has passed away;
The bitter words remain:
In vain the lady weeps and sighs;
He will not WOO again.
No other love may light her path,
No other move has heart;
Yet changing seasons come and 60,
And find them still apart.
Her once bright cheek is paler now;
His bears 4 trace of pain:
Their eyes are sorrowful, and yet
He will not WOO again.
They meet as strangers, calm and cold;
As calmly, coIdly part;
And none may guess that tranquil mien
CUnceals tortured heart.
To him the world hath lost its light;
For her all joys are vain:
Nor hope nor memory brings relief,
He will not WOO again.
Alas, that love, long tried and warm,
Should wither in an hour!
Alas, that pride DER human hearts
Should WELD such fearful power.
Oh weep thou not for those who die
For them all tears are vain;
But weep DER living hearts grown cold,
Who meier may love again.

A REAL HARD SHE'LL.

We don't refer to the religion, but to the
physical she'll of the old negro whom cor
respo ndent of the Baltimore Patriot met in
the cars from Chicago, Illinois, few days
ago, and thus describes:
Far back towards the corner, sat an
aged colored man. quite in character
Neither old Hagar, Moses Small, nor Bar
NUNS Mark Anthony, could rival him. He
had passed through nearly one hundred
years, wore wig of Indian hair, black as
jet, beneath which was a beard white as
driven snow. A more complete repre-
sentation of an Egyptian mummy could
scarcely be imagined. All of a sudden the
old fellow struck up hymn, in clear,
shrill voice, thus attracting general atten-
ton. 1t seemed as though he played on
a harp of thousand strings In his hand
was petition asking aid to purchase his
home in Missouri. Narrating briefly his
history, he said: Il was born, Massa, in
Norf Carolina, near de Cape Fear, one hun

beautiful world! indeed, known not what
to think of it. Sometimes it is all gladness
and sunshine. and heaven itself lies not far
off; and then it suddenly changes, and is
dark and sorrowful, and the clouds shut out
the day. In the lives of the saddest of US
there are bright days like this, when we
feel as if we could take the great world in
our arms. Then come gloomy hours, when
the fire will not burn on our hearths, and
all without and within is dismal, cold and
dark. Believe me, every heart has its secret
sorrows, which the world knows not, and
only sad Lon fcIL0D.
