X curious AOVertAS1mS Str0t88em a
Some few years ago a halter in London speculated
in the purchase of the entire stock of a bankrupt
brother tradesman but soon after his purchase ne
found that he had overstocked himself. he was on
the point Of reluctantly distnissing so-m4sezesss1nss
when a. sh~erp-wittad frian1-sHane 70 uessldcSes9SBy
his advice . hsuuhh, lan9eNnelng tAesseeqfASees
the 1atters wares was prepared and Distributed kxActly
particular -ltvaat The bill was headed atuur
After I" and throughout it's contents we're Invariably
mentioned as tAts, Youths Silk Ats, Best Beaver
Ats, Ladies' Riding Ats, ETC.. The remainder Of the
handbill was in unexceptionable English. The result
perfectly justified the inventors anticipations. These
bills were sought after as typographical curiosities.-
Men shouted with laughter at the ludicrous effect
of what they considered ignorance on the paftnof
the printer, or Of the writer. They carried these
bills in their pockets and merrly showed them to
their friends. One or two elderly gentlemen, pre-.
viously perfect strangers, came to the shop, bought ats
and expostulated gravely with the { after coupon the
solecism. Young fellows purchased gossamers for the
fun of the thing, begged for ~handbils, and held jocplar
conversation with the shopkeeper. The shop became
known, and the proprietor, now a 6ourishing brakeman,
frequently smiles as he hears the street boys calling out
the now established phrase of Who's your after |? I the
origin Of which, but for the publication Of this curious
little episode on advertising, might possibly, in 2 few
short years, have been lost forever to the antiquarian.
To this day, the pronunciation of the popular inquiry
is that of the original handbill. eas gs8.sre&

The SUGAR CANE.-We are pleased to zee the
statement that "tEe agricultural bureau of the Patent
Office has made arrangements for the Introduction
and cultivation Of sixteen or more varieties Of the
sorghum sucre, or sugar cane, and sincerely hope the
experiments which are now being made with this new
plant may prove successful. IF we can raise our wi
sugar and molasses in Maine, or even the molasses
alone, it will prove an invaluable acquisition to our

Jefrerson,s opinion of Farming.

- A1A4
Whatever may be your choice of future occupation
whatever calling or profession you may select, there is
certainly none more honorable than that Of a farmer
The patriarch of the fields, as he sits beside the cottage
door, when his daily toll is over, feels an inward calm
never known in the halls of pride. His labor yields
him unpurchasable health and repose. I have observed
with more grief and pain than I can express, the visible
tokens which appear in all directions of a growing dis
position to avoid agricultural pursuits, and to rush into
some over-crowded profession, because a corrupt and de-
basing fashion has thrown around it the tinsel of imag-
mary responsibility. Hence, the farmer, instead of
preparing his child to follow in the path Of usefulness
himself has trod, educates him for a sloth labor is con-
sidered vulgar, to work is ungenteel, a ~jack-plane is less
respectable than the lawyers green bag; the handles
of the pillow less digni6ed than the yard-stick. Unfor-
tunate infatuation |! How melancholy is this delusion,
which unless it be checked by a wholesome reform in
public opinion will cover over our country with wreck and
ruin /! This state of things is striking at the very foun-
dation of our national greatness ; it is upon agriculture
that we mainly depend for our continued prosperity, and
dark and evil will be the day when it falls into direpute.
What other pursuit offers SO sure a guarantee Of an
honest independence, a comfortable support for a growing
family ? Where else can we look but to the productions
of the soil for the safety of investment, and for ample
returns ? In commercial speculations all is chance and
uncertainty, change and ductuation, rise and fall. In
the learned professions, scarce one in ten makes enough
to meet his incidental expenses how, then, are we to
account for this fatal misdirection Of public opinion

CHIvALRY OF OLD.-It was the courtesy Of chivalry
that inspired Crillon to send vegetables to the scurvy-
infected Elliot, whom he was ~besieging in Gibraltar
and, to come down to the last example, it was per.
ha2s an unnecessary courtesy which inspired Sir Edward
Lyons, when our own men were lying h~alf-famished in
the trenches before Sebastopol to send a fat buck to
the hostile admiral within the city. Still, courtesy be-
tween knights engaged in hostiities has ever received an
universal and approving acknowledgment. When
George III. sent the Garter to Prince Ferdinand Of Bruns-
wick, the great victor at Minden, his investiture took
place in front Of the whole army. The French General
Do Broglie, learning the nature Of the ceremony, gener-
|ously fastened to do honour to vaor by the exercise
of which the French had grievously suffered. He, too,
drew up his men within sight Of the spectacle, and then
the new knight, whose skill and courage had
been rewarded BY George II. De Broglie dined in the
evening in Ferdinand's tent, the guest Of his adversary.
On the following day they were as fierce enemies s ever.
