RIGHTS AND DUTIES. - W hencvcr and
wherever we come in contact with our fellow
men. there arises a question of rights, and
consequently of duties. We have alluded
incidentally to some of them in speaking of
habits and dress. The senses of each in.
dlvidual have their rights, and it is your
duty to respect them. The eye has a claim
upon you for so much of beauty IN form,
color, arrangement, position, and movement
as you arc able to present to it. A French
author has written II book the aim of which
is to show that it is the duty of a pretty
woman to look pretty. 1t is the duty of all
women, and all men too, to look and behave
just as well as they can, and whoever fails
III this, fails in good manners and in duty.
The ear demands agreeable tones and har-
monous combinations of tones pleasant
words and sweet songs. If you indulge in
loud talking, in hoiSierous and untimely
laughter, OF in proIane or vulgar language,
or sing out of tune, yon violate its rights and
offend good manners. The sense of smell re-
qures pleasant oders for its enjoyment. -
Fragrance is its proper clement To bring
the fettd oder of unwashed feet or filthy gar
ments, OF the stencil of bad tobacco or worse
whisky, or the offensive scent of onions or
gar.ics within its sphere, is an act of impo-
likeness. The sense taste asks for agreeable
flavcrs and has right to the best we can
give in the way of palatablc foods and drinks
The sense of feeling, though less cultivated
and not so sensitive as the others. has its
rights too, and is offended by too great
coarseness, roughness, and hardness. 1t has
claim on us for higher culture.

From the National Era
The Witch's Daughter.

$3. was the pleasant harvest time,
~ When cellar-bn are closely slowed,
And garrets bend beneath their load,
And the old swallow haunted barns
Brown gdblcd, long and full of seams
Through which the NOTED sunlight streams,
And winds blow freshly in, to shake
The red plumcs of the roasted cocks,
And the loose hay-mow's scented locks
Aro filled with summers ripcncd stores,
It's odorous grass and grained shcaves,
From their low scatlolds to their caves.
On Esck Hardcn's oakcn floor,
With many an autumn threshing worn,
Lay the hcapcd ears Of unhusked corn.
And thithcr came young men and maids,
Beneath moon that, large and low,
Lit that sweet eve Of long ago.
They took their places; some by chance,
And others by a merry voice
Or sweet smile guided to their choice.
How pleasantly the rising moon,
Between the shadow Of the mows,
Looked on them thro' the great elm boughs!
On sturdy boyhood sun-embrowned,
On girlhood with its solid curves
OF hcathtul strength and painless nerves
And jests went round and laughter made
The house. log answ r. with his howl,
And kept astr the barn-yard fowl;
And quaint old songs their fathers sang,
In Derby dllcs and Yorkshire moors,
Ere Norman William trod their shores;
And tales, whose merry license shook
The fat sides of the Saxon thane,
Forgetiul of the lowering Dane
But still the sweetest voice was mute
That river valley ever heard,
From lip of maid or throat of bird;
For NJ lbc NJ ,rtin sat apart,
And let the hay-mow's shadow fall
Upon the lovcliest face of all.
She sat apart, one forbid,

IMPORTANT TO FARMERS.
IMPROVEMENT IN THE BREED OF
HORSES.

IMPROVEMENT In THE bhEED Of
HORSES.
To enter into an argument, at this day Of the
nineteenth century to show that the horse-steck OF
any country is material item in the account Of the
national wealth, strength and greatness, would be
to admit the areuer himself ass or at least that
he believed himself to be addressing an audience Of
asses In no country in the world perhaps il such
an argument less needed than in our own where
certainly the keeping of horses for purposes Of
pleasure, as well as Of utility, s more largely dis
semnated among persons of all classes than in any
other and where the desire and ability bsth to keep
and breed horses of high grade is daily gaining
ground, both in town and country. Ameng farm
ers the anxiety to raise valuable stock is at least
increasing proportiOnag to the increase Of the pro-
ft to be derived from them, which ID advancing
every day, not in consequence Of any casual or teu
porary caprice, but attributable to the growing per-
ception of the fact among all hosekeepers, that il
is not Only cheap if one keep horse at all, to
Keep good as to keep q bad one, but in reality
much cheaper. TIE prime cost is the only differ.
ence to be considered the price of stable room,
Keep and care is Identical; the wear and tear is in
fnitely less in the sound, abe useful animal thar
in the broken jade; the work which can be done
and the value earned by the one, is in no possible
relation TO that of the other; while to conclude the
cash value of the superior animal, judiciousB
worked-and BY judiciously is meant prO6taby to
the owner, as, well 90 moderately and merciful1
to the beast-and properly tended is actually in
erea'ng annually at greater rate than that OF the
inferior animal is deteriorating.
In other words, four-y -year-od horse, well bought
at price Of two or three hundred dollars or up
ward, will when he has attained the age Of seven
or eight years, after having earned his meat and
paid the interest of lis prime cost by bis services
be worth twice the money, either for working pur.
poses or for .ale, if the owner see fit to dispose Of
him; while an animal bought for half or third Of
that price, at the same age, will probably. at the
same increased age, be wholly worn out, vslusless
and useless; and the greater the excellence Of the
animal in tho fret instaDce, the greater and more
rapid will be the increase 10 value; the lower it,
