THE MANURE QUESTION.

4 correspondent, speaking of shayings and
saw. dust as litteringfor cattle, wherein there
is liquid manure, says:-Thet first time l
tried it, I put ten cartloads under myeat'
tie stalls iu the fall, to absorb the liquid man
tI,s. ure. -. NY barn then stood three feet above
| the ground; since then, 4 have raised it Up
seven. v e feet, and have cellar under the whole
"a convenience every farmer, who can,
should have. The next spring found the
saw.dust we'll saturated with the urine, and
used i, ON Land for Swedish tarpips-zthe
land tie pteVious year was planted with po'
tatoes, yfthout manure On one part of the
field I ussd hog manure, the same number
Of loads. Il had a. crop Of turnips, and Gid
not see sns difference where I put hog man,
ure or saw.dust, I, have used it for pon'
toes at the rate or thirty loads to the aero,
and also for corn, and can testify, thatas far
as can Judge, have never perceived any
injury to my crops from it, Last year ar.
Abbot raised $50 bushels Of sound corn on
three acres Of land, at cost Of thirteen
cents per bushel. he used 25 loads Of man.
ure to the acre-30 bushels to the load
There was good proportion OF shavings . nd
saw dust mixed with manure, well saturated
with urine Another farmer says Last
winter We usedit in our horse stable, snd
found it far better than straw forkeeping the
horses clean and absorbing the liquid nan
ure, which had formerly nearly all leaked
through the floors and was lost. Last spring
the MANURE from the horses stable was drawn
out and spread on piece OF ground intended
for carryts and ruta bagas. . The result was
we had the finest crop Of roots that was In
this town. !, l attribute the; success in rais- ais
ing the above crop, in a great measure to
the Use of the saw,dust. 1t not only retains
the most valuable part of the stable manure,
but it makes it easier to spread over the
surface of the ground. and thus becomes
more thoroughly intermingled with the seil
as ! IS plowed and narrowed in. This win.
ter we ave using saw.dust in our COW stables.
One load is sufficient to Gll the 'drop, behind
the cattle two or three inches deep, and will
not need cleaning out more than once OF
twice week. By shovelling off every day
the litter that drops on the platform where
the cattle stands. they will keep nearly as
clean as horses that are ouTrisd every clay.

puddles we're preparing themselves for the
shades of the highland Polly and myself
sat upon antiquated black log, listening to
the music of nature, such as tree.toads, roost-
ers and gruuting pigs, and now and then the
mellow music of distant jackass was watt
ed to our ears by the gentle zephrys that
sighed along the mullen stalks, and came
heavily laden with delicious odor of hen
roosts and pig sites. The last glittering rays
of the setting sun, glancing off the brass
buttons of ,horseman, shone through hole
in the hog pen full in Polly's face, and dying

back-she was toying with my auburn locks
of jet black hue-she was almost gone and
was ditto-she looked like a grasshopper
dying with the hiccups. I felt like mud
turtle choked with Goldfish ball. Polly
says I, in voice musical as the dying swan,
will you have me?' She turned her eyes
heaveuward, clasped me by the hand, had an
attack of blind staggers, aud witha sigh that
drew her shoe strings to her palate, said
"Yes?"
She gave clear out then and squatted in
my lap-she cork-screwed and 1 curaumix-

short, she set the day and we practiced every
night for four weeks how we would walk in

for her, out Of the room They followed her in
silence, because they had either not had sulfi-
cient presence of mind to awake her at first, or
because they wished to spare her the embar
rasSment of SO awkward situation
She found the way down stairs, without once
tripping to her chamber All retired again to
rest, and SgiSmuud, in particular, resumed the
place which his Rosina had occupied with very
different feelings from those with which he had
left it. The inference which he drew in re-
gard to her sentiments towards him, from her
behavior in the liveliest Of all dreams could not
but be exceedingly flatterng to him. Nothing,
therefor, could prevent him, next morning,
from making Rosina a formal offer of his hand,
and explaining to her parents his other views
They had little to object, and the heart Of
ROsina still less
Thus the horrors and apprehcnsions of sn-
pernatural visitation terminated in most
joyous wedding, which was consummated in the
same chamber where the innocent Rosina hal
twice filed her lover with nexpressible
alarm.

Florida The colonel had black fellow, q
good uatured happy creature, who. one morn

and roaring as he went, when suddenly he
spied an indvidul as black as himself, with
much more wool. Dick looked at his new
friend, and the bear (on his rump) at his
Dick eyes began to stick out feet. "Whos
dat p cried Dick. Who's dat ?" again cried
Dick, shaking all over Bruin began to ap-
proach. Dick pulled heels for the first tree
and the bear after him. Dick was upon the
cypress, and the bear scratching close otter
him. Dick moved ont on a limb, the bear fol-
Iowed-tiIl the limb began to bend Now,

A LITTLE DIFFICULTY IN THE WAY-An
enterprising travelling agent for a well-known
Cleveland tomb stone mandatory lately
made business visit to small town in an ad-
joining county. Hearing in the village that n
man in remote part Of the township had lost
his wife, he thought he would 90 and see him
and offer him consolation and a grave stone on
his usual reasonable terms. He started. The
road was frightfu one but the agent perSe-
vered and finally arrived at the bereaved mans
house Bereaved mans hired girl told the
agent that the bereaVed man was splitting fence
rails, over'n pastur, about two mlds." The
indefatgable agent hitched his horse aud start
ed for the 'paStur" After falling into all
manner of mudhoeS, scratching himself with
briars and tumblimg over decayed logs the
agent at length found the bereaved man. In
a subdued voice he asked the man if he had
lost his wife The man said he had. The
agent was very sorry to hear of it and sympa-
thized with the man very deeply in his great
affection but death, he said, was an insatiate
archer, and shot down all, both of high and
low degree. Informed the man that what
was his loss was her gain" and would be glad
to sell him grave stone to mark the spot
where the beloved one siept-marble or com
mon stone, as he chose, at prices defying COM
petition. The bereaved man said there was
"a little difficulty in the way" "Havn't you
lost your wife ?' inquired the agent Why.
yes | have" said the man, but no grave stun
amt necessary: you see the cussed critter amt
dead. She's sc00ied arih another man !" The
agent retired Ctereiand PlaindeaLer.

HARVEST FESTIVAL ODE.
BY J. G. WHITTIER.

rbi. day one hundred years ago,
The wild grape by the river side,
,,dtasteless ground-nuts trailing low,
The table of the woods supplied.
Unknown the apples red and gold,
The blushing tint of peach and pear;
Tho mirror of the powwow told
M tale of orchards ripe and rare.
Ufl5 as the fruits ne sconed to till,
The yales the idle Indian trod
Mar knew the glad, creative skill,
The ioy of him who tolls with God.
q. Painter of the fruits and flowers!
We thank Thee for Thy wise design
Whereby these human hands of ours
In Natures garden work with Thine.
And thanks, that from our daily need
The JOY of simple faith is born
That he who smites the summer weed,
Nav trust Thee for the autumn corn.
Give fools their gold and knaves their power.
Let fortunes bubbles rise and fall
Who sows a field, or trains flower;
Or plants 4 tree, is more than all.
For he who besses more Is blest;
And God and man shall own his worth
Who tolls to leave as his bequest
An added beauty TO the earth.
And soon or late, to all that SOW
The time of harvest shall be given
The flower shall bloom, the fruit shall grow
If not on earth, at last in heaven

HEAT FROM THE SrARs.-It is startling
fact, that if the earth were dependent alone
upon the sun for heat, it would not get enough
70 make the existence of animal and vegetable
| fe upon its surface. 1t results from the re-
searches OF Poullet, that the stars furnish heat
enough in the course of year to melt crust
Of ice eight-Iive feet thick, almost as much as
S supplied by the sun.
This may appear strange when we consider
how immeaSurably small must be the amount
received from any one of these distant bodies
But the surprise vaaiShes, when we remember
that the whole armament is so thickly sown
with stars that in some places thousands are
crowded together within space no greater
;han that occupied by the full moon.-Dr.
Lardncr

meeting. Secondly-my wife has not attend

the third place. have not even attended any
of the meetings for any purpose whatever
To COnclude-neither my wife nor myself have
had any inclination for these meetings. Finally
i never had wife,
