calls the g Potiphar papers - aLsa.sa
~" A grand party was given few
nights since by a wealthy citizen, at
which the peculiar graces of the fash
ionable young men of New York shone
with unusual splendor. In an upper
room, where card tables had been set
for old gentlemen, was a large bowl OF
punch, which 2 the boys smelt out.
They broke into the room, and got
roaring drunk on the punch; then In
vaded. the hat room and cut all the
mems hats, except their own, boring
holes In some, slashing others, slicing
off the bri1ns and punching out the
crowns, until the floor was covered
with ruined castors and finally wound
up their gentlemanly behavior by cut
ting the cord of the, dumb-waiter and
letting the whole Of the expensive sup

BRUTEs LOVE MEN MORE THAN
WoMEN.-A writer in the Atlantic
Monthly, for March, puts it thus:
Kate, the other day, was asserting a
wife's right to the control of her own
property, and incidentally advocating
the equality of the sexes-a touchy
point with her. put IN
N"Tell me then, Kate, why animals
form stronger attachments to men than
women. Your dog, your parrot, and
even your cat, already prefer me to
you. How can you account for it
unless you allow there is more in us to
respect and love % e $

most decided nod, "by affinity. There
is more affinity between you and the
brutes."

Descent OF 4 BoLT OF RE.-The
Boston Journal states that while the
New York and Worcester train was
passing Natick, a ball Of lightning, as
large as the two fists of a man, descend
ed, ran along the telegraph wire, and
exploded with a report as loud as a
cannon. The wire was consumed, and
the posts within the space of half mile
were shivered from top to bottom.
The passengers ON the train were
greatly alarmed, as the ball of fire was
all the time in sight, and the explosion
seemed as if beneath the cars. Had
the train been under the wire, it must
have been struck.

/. Good corn soils are best adapted
to its growth-warm, deep, calcarious
soils. < ~
"a Q. Like corn, it is an advantage n to
soak the seed in water and saltpeter,
and roll in plaster before planting
keeps away worms, is unpalatable to
birds, and insures quicker germin alton.
8. As in planting corn, it pays to
do the work wen. Be careful not to
plant too deep; you must remember
this.
A. Plant as soon as you do your
corn; viz: when your ground is well
prepared and warm. - Es1g ssssrA
5. You must not plant near broom
corn, chocolate corn, durra, or any of
these species, as it will hybridize with
any of the plants, and thus affect its
sugar producing qualities. -
6. Plant. two rows two, and half
feet apart, then leave space of five
and half feet, and again, plant two
rows two and half feet apart This
facilitates cutting and drawing, as the
widerspa allows room for-a team to
pass, and four rows can be put on the
wagon as it is cut p,saving labor and
dirt, when the juiee'is TO be expressed.
If this is no object, plantlin drills three
and ahalf OF four feet apart, and nine
or twelve inches in the drill, or three
to three and a half feet apart each way,
according to your notions of cultivation.
I, 1t is valuable fodder Sow any
extra seed you may have, in drills, two
and two and half feet apart, thick in
the drill. 1t win produce two crops of
forage if cut the first time when grow
ing vigorously. and sometimes in some
climates, two crops of seed. g iIs.r
The foregoing requires you attention
now, to which we wish to add one
more. Remember, that whether for
syrup or forage, it viii pay you to cul-
tivate a limited quantity of the Sorg-
hum this year. - - = Z =
