TT R. ". WEIR
Ny ancient clock 10 longer ticks,
or taseth note OF time;
Its hands are still, its voice is mute,
The voice that once so resoluse
Sent forth Its hourly chime,
And stiffness now is felt to be
Like distant surges Of the sea
Ny ancient monitor Of worth!
Thy silence makes nc sad:
That measured tick no more I hear,
But pulses beating in the air.
And WEAKNESS run mad;
The skeleton of time, saRs breath.
The prelude, as it were, TO death.
Come, ancient friend, no longer thus
In moody silence stand;
Cheer upl and LEI your wheels go roun.
Ard gladden. with your silver sound.
Once more cur little hand
Speak TO our hearts, and to Is say,
-Thas, thus life's moments pass away.

On GROWING OLD. A writer in
Chambers Edinburgh Journal makes
the following remarks on females grew
ing old:-
ITO grow old gracefully'-as one,
who truly has exempliiesa her theory, has
written and expressed its good and
beautiful thing; to grow old worthily, a
be ter. = And the first effort to that end
is not only to recognize but to become
personally rcconciled to the fact Of youths
departure to see, or if not seeing, to
have faith, in the wisdom Of that which
we call change, yet which is in truth
progression; to follow openly and fear.
lessly, in ourselves and our own life. the
same law which makes spring pass into
summer, summer into autumn, autumn
into winter, preserving an especial beau
~ and fitness in each Of the four.
!; Yes, if women could only believe it.,
there is wonderful beauty even in grow
ing old. The charm Of expression aris-
ing from softened temper or ripened in
tellect, often amply stones for the loss
of form and coloring; and consequently
to those who never could boast either Of
these latter. years give much more than
they take away. A sensitive person Of
ten requires half a lifetime to get thor
oughly used to this corporal machine,
to, q wholesome indifference both to its
defects ane perfections-and to learn at
last what nobody would acquire from any
teacher but experience, that it is the mind
alone which is of any consequence; that
with q good temper, sincerity. and a
moderate stock Of brains-or even the
two former only-any sort Of body can
in time be made useful, respectable and
agreeable, ~ = travelling dress for the
soul. Many a one, who was absolutely
plain in youth, thus grows pleasant and
vsll-looking in declining years. You
will hardly ever find anybody. not ugly

TIE KITCHEN GARDEN-SEAsoNA-
BILE HINrs.-If YOU wish TO r. Use fine
vegetables, and no doubt whatever but
you do, you must use manure freely. a
few kinds may pay on somewhat poor
land, but the staple crops must have it
all the cabbage tribe, and onions especial
". Do not dig in straw-that is, if You
can help it-but manure that has been
some time decomposing.
OF course you h ave had your compost
heap covered with muck or other mate
rial to absorb the escaping gases, as we'll
as to prevent the heap from becoming
dry and like so much litter again. 1t is
hardly likely you have enough compost
ed to dress your entire garden at once;
hence you will need to apply it to such
as need it most. These will come In
point of order, for manuring, something
like the following: Cabbage, and all SIM
liar plants, oEions, peas, celery, summer
cops of salads and ruta-basa, leaving,
if any, unmanured, potatoes, vines, &c.
Are your beds Of strawberry, raspber-
~, pie-plant, &c, showing signs of de-
clining? If so, is manure wanted on
any but the first, which is best replanted
every three or four years, any how -
S2,ing is a good time to set about ma
king any of the above plantations. If
you made up your mind to do SO, do it
thoroughly, for remember, they have to
last several years. Spade or plough up
the ground as deep as you can, working
in plenty Of manure to enrich it, If
claycy and tenacious in texture, haul on
saw dust, coal ashes, or street sweepings
as openers; the latter article is very val
liable for this purpose, besides being a
good manure.
Have you digested the system you
intend in cropping your and, or is,it left
TO chance? If so. viii all the I'M
portant and less important crops get the
proper quantity Of ground: This is
worth considering. and even roughly
planning on piece of paper so that no
mistakes may occur. Do you intend to
exhibit at our next county fair: Then
if you do, you must be up and doing,
or you will be beat. If you get anything
unusually fine, don't forget to send a
statement with the article of the pecu-
liarities of your culture. This idea
ought to be encouraged. E. s.-Coun-
trg Gentleman, April 8.
