AMERICAN SANG FROID.

Far away fiom the great cities, half
hidden in the foliage, was the modest
log hut of a man, half trapper, half
fisherman, and more than half savage.
OF course his name was Smith. He was
married, and he and his wife in this one
little chamber, led the happiest of exist
ence, for on an occasion she would not
object to 60 twenty miles to hear the
Baptist minister preach.
One evening about shutdown they were
both together in their little cabin-she
knitting stockings for the next winters
snow, he cleaning the barrel Of his fowl
ing peace, all the parts of which were
lying %dismounted about him-both busy,
and neither u~ttering a syllable.
By degrees a dull but regular sound
breaks upon the silence of the wilder
ness. The steamer is ascending the riv.
er, making the best of its way against
the stream. But neither Smith nor his
wife pays any attention ; be goes on
cleaning his gun, she knitting her stock
ing.
The air, however, darkens /; a thick
smoke rises upon every side /; a formida-
bic explosion was heard /; one would
have said it was a discharge of several
cannons at once. The boiler had burst 4;
the vessel was sunk ; every thing was
destroyed.
Smith and his wife did not look up I;
he went on cleaning up his gun, she
knitting her stockings, for explosions of
steamers are SO common.
But this was one Which was to inter.
est them more nearly, for scarcely had
the explosion ended before the roof of
the cabin split in two, and something
heavy descended through the aperture.
This something was q man,-Who dropped
between the pair, without, however, dis
turbing either-he still cleaning his gun,
she still knitting her stocking.
But the traveller. so rudely introduced
seemed rather astounded at his decent.
After a few minutes, however, he re-
sumed his GOODNESS and began to look
about him, fixing his attention at last
upon the hole through which he had ar.
rived. "Ah! my man." said he, al
length, addressing Smith, "what's the
damage ?"
On this Smith, who had given up his
work, put aside his rifle, and looking up
10 estimate his loss, answered, after some
little reflection, "ten dollars"
"You be hanged !" exclaimed the
traveller" "Last week, in the explo-
sion l happened 10 be in with another
steamer, l fell through three flights in a
new house, and they only charged me
Eve dollars. No, no; l know what's
the thing in such matters. Here's q
couple of dollars, and if that won't do,
go and sue ME, and be hanged."-M

A FARMER in Massachusetts says that
he has found the use of molasSes very
ellectual ID destroying caierpillars, that
when they are in the nest he has smear,
ed it cver with molasses, and that none
have ever escaped from it that hey
cannot travel over a limb where the mo-
lasses has touched, and hat it does not
in any way injure the tee and that
upon the whole he likes it better than
lighted torches, gunpowder. soap-suds,
whale oil soap, or ever the thumb and
finger. A cheap and easy remedy. Let

AT this season of the year, when COWS
are pat in low swampy ground, they are
liable TO get the ground itch or lameress

fresh lime and put each side Of the bars

times a day, taking care to add more
lime occasionally. Formerly nay cows

WHEAT CROP OF OHIo.-From the
best information we can gather, as well
as what We see in our travels, the pres.
ent wheat crop is of fair quantity and ex-
%cellent quality throughout The State
generally, except in a few Eastern coun-
ties, where it is seriously damaged by
the nudge. Storms have done some
damage in the southern part of the
State.

Mil, with engine and boiler, all ready TO run. and to
dispose Of territorial and individual rights. This val
uahle invention being nov brought 70 4 high state OF
perfection, Offers TO purchasers the following important
4 Advantages over all other SAY mills:
1t cuts more lumber. It makes smoother lGmher,
Il saws each board entirely oa, and lcavss no stub-shot.
thus saving greatly in quantity, and improves the quail
lily 1t possesses the same advantages :or saving long
timber and ship plank as the gang-saw, the saw running
horizontally, cuts plank from the top Of the leg, the
weight Of the log, together with thefas;eninss, prevents
all STringing. The machinery, saw and carriage being
raised only y few inches above the surface, saves all
expense Of drawing up timber, and adds greatly to the
convenience and safety Of handling lumber.
1t requires fewer hands to work l..
1t is portable, and can he moved three miles 1t an
expense Of forty dollars; thus the mill can be noyedt %
timber. II Is equally applicable to large and small
machinery. The saw rams horizontally, and in a sash
thus giving the double advantage Of the quick stroke Of
Tie muley saw, and the strength Of the sash saw.
These mills are now in operation in Warren Train
buIl Co.. o., CanoashGrg, Pa, Columbus, Ohio Wash
