AN IGNORANT CONSTABLE.

An interior paper is following up Jus
tice Of the Peace in it's vicinity with great
deal of pertinacity. Whenever anything
unusual occurs in his court the editor re-
ports it at full length. The other day a
jury trial was to take place before him, and
eleven jurors had been empaneled, when
the constable of the court pushed forward
the twelfth, a long legged, slabsided speci-
men of humanity, who was addressed by
his honor with all the familiarity of an old
acquaintance
"Get up thar; Aleck, and let's conclude
this case"
Aleck hesitated and looked steadily at the
Justice. =
"Come, come p continued the latter i'm
patiently. ''It's no use; you can't get off
| don't go a red on excuse; 50 up with
youp'
Aleck, seeing it was little use to talk,
hung his head and made step toward the
vacant seat among the anxious jury, mutter'
ing as he moved s.The court might let q
feller play his hand out, anyhow
1.-THE court mi ght do what" shouted the
Justice fercely.
"Why all I have to say is, promptly re-

CHEAP WAY OF UNDERDRAIN1NG.

CHEAP WAY OF UNDERDRAIN1NG.
/The following, from Gen. Harman of
Wheatland, N. Y, we copy from the New
York Chronicle It is practical, and to the
point: .s..jt' - -1.9 - 81 1.<'f
There is no one subject that demands
more attention among farmers, than the un-
derdraining Of low and swampy lands. In
passing through the farming districts, We
see many large plats of land which are en-
closed and the owners paying taxes on,
which do not yield annually the cost Of
keeping them. Now these useless acres
could be made to pay the interest of one
hundred dollars for each, annually, while
interest on the cost of improvement would
not be one dollar an acre. Many have sup
posed as their works show, that an open
drain from twelve to eighteen inches deep
and wide, is all that is required to make
wet land productive. .c.4 .--ssa.!.llzz
In draining, the fist step is to procure
suitable tools for the business. Common
drains should be dug fifteen inches on The
top and three at the bottom, three feet deep
on all soils free from stones. This size is
the cheapest IF the banks are solid, the
cheapest tile that, I have used, is to lay in
cedar, pine, blackash, or any green poles
that will 20 down within six or eight inches
of the bottom they should be stepped or
and crowded down solid; then fill in one
third full of earth, pound it down with a
paver's mallet; then fill the other third as
before, and finish off. - ''A 7.-'.> t''-
One great difficulty in filling drains is,
that the earth is left too loose, SO that mice
make holes which let in the water from the
surface, which will soon spoil drain that
is made of stone, poles or brick. Water il
carried under ground much cheaper than or
the surface, and field of several oper
drains is not good economy. When cover.
ed under ground, they may: be plowed over
are needed in stony soils, the bottom Of the
dicth should be wide, SO that one could
stand and work in it; and stones laid SO az
to carry off the water. In some sections
tile would be cheapest. No farmer. who
has wet lands should neglect to drain them
because he cannot get tile. 50 s-.-.f-. Fl
Some plats of land are made dry by q
ditch around them. Others will require
several bitches through them.s Such land
when made dry, will be the most produc-
tive. Carrots and potatoes will do well OF
! such soils, and most of the spring crops
The grasses and hay from such soil will b
worth twice as much as the same weigh
from lands that are too wet. If the we
lands which are enclosed in this state coule

lament the Old Year, whose departure is near,
Whose shattered frame trembles with age,
His eyelids hang heavy Ger orbs dim and blear,
So rigid and sharp do his features appear,
So woful and wan is his aspect, 'tis clear
That his lfe-records fill their last page.

And now, when his limbs are grown palsied and
Like a shepherd he gathers his flock to their

For they grieve that their father, the Old Year,

And his sons, for their weeds, tear the clouds

DANIEL WEBSTER.

There was grandeur in the face of Mr.
Webster which we have never seen eeuall-
ed. :. The head was massive, and the brow
rose like dome of the noblest proportions.
Itreminded one of that great work of art
which Michael Angelo hung in the heavens.
It is a remarkable fact, that the great archi-
tect, in placing dome over St. Peters,
sought to give it that curve which would
be most agreeable to the eye; he satisfied
his taste as an artist without reference to
any other standard; and afterwards, when
the work came to be tested by the rules of
architecture, it was found that he had fixed
upon the precise line that was capable Of the
greatest resistance; so that the lines of beau
