The stream ripples bright by my cottage,
The sunshine IL bright on the stream.
And the wee. pebbly stones, in the sunshine,
Like dimonds sparkle and CLEAN.
There are halle trees kissing the water.
And piumes of the fair m edow sweet,
And down by the hazel sits Jennie,
And dahbles her little white feet.
The robin peeps In at my door way,
The linnet looks down from the tree;
And here, pillowed up in his cradle,
Wee Sandy sits smiling at me.
Ny milk pail stands bright in the corner,
MY tins are all bright on the shelf.
And the white supper-cloth on the table
Is clean, for I washed it myself.

n Mr.. p. A Strouble communicates the
following to the Georgia Telegraph ~,
may not be generally known that the
swcet-potato vine may be saved during
the winter, and used the following spring,
in propagating new crop. / have tried
the experiment during this year to my
entire satisfaction, and therefore feel it
my duty to communicate the result for
the benefit ofthe public. In the fall (any
time before frost the vines may be cut
IN any convenient length, and place in
layers, on the surface of the earth, to the
depth efitwelve or eighteen inches: COW
er the vines, while damp. with partially
rotted straw (either pine or wheat will
answer ITO the depth of six inches. and
cover the whole with light soil about
four inches deep. In this way the vines
will keep during the winter, and in the
spring tl,ey will put outsprouts as album
dainty as the potato itself when bedded.
The draws on spouts can be planted first.
and the vine itself can be subsequently,
cut and used, as we generally plant slips.
This experiment is worthy the consider
alton of farmers, as it will save great
many sced-potatoes particularly on large
plantations J, which can be used for feed

/ Cider Vinegar.


There are hundreds of farmers in the
western country, who are most Of the
time, either destitute of vinegar entirely,
or make use of some Stops, which is not
only unpalatable, but decidedly unheal-
thy. The vinegar manufactured from
scids enters largely into the consump-
ton of towns and cities and to some ex-
tent. into that Of the country also, -
Whiskey with all its authorizations, is used
for the purpose of making pickles, and,
IN that manner lends its aid to the des-
troyer Of human life. Many other diff
erent methods of procuring the sours of
life are practiced, and many of which
are not only productive Of deleterious in
fuences to the health of ourselves and
our children, but require far more labor
than ought to be bestowed upon that
branch of a house wife's business. We
ike in an age of labor-saving machines,
and We ought toeconomize, both in labor
and money, as well in the less important
matters of living as in the more impor-
tant. And to apply little Yankee in
genuity in this case is not so difficult as
many people imagine Almost every
family in the country have the materials
for manufacturing pure cider vinegar. if
They VIII only use them. Common dried
apples, with a little molasses and brown
paper are all you need to make the best
kind Of cider. vinegar. And what is
still better, the cider, which you extract
from the apples, does not detract from
the value Of the apples for any other pur-
pose. Soak your apples few hours
washing and rubbing them occasionally,
then take them out of the water and thor-
oughly strain the. latter through a tight
woven cloth--put it into jug, add a
half pint of molasses to agallon ofliquor.
and a piece of common brown paper, and
set in the sun, or by the fire, and in a
few days, your vinegar will be fit for use.
Have two jugs, and use out of one while
the other is working. No family need
be destitute Of good vinegar, if they will
follow the above directions.--S. L.. i
