HousE PLANTS. Those house plants that
hate done towering should be pruned and
rcpotted if they require it, and placed in
the garden for summer, to make their growth
of young wood, for towering the next season.
When they are set out in the garden or yard
for summer, it is best to place them in a group
together, for, by having them placed in this
manner, they are more easy to water and
take care of, and by sinking their pots lit
tle more than half their depth in the ground,
it will keep the sun from searching their
roots. Repot them in fresh SOIL as they may
app,ar to require it, and they will by this
attention be always ready to take into the
house when the season arrives, which is
much better than having them left till the
frost comes, for reporting them at that sea-
son often causes them to lose their leaves
The secret of cultivating plants successfully.
consists in giving them light, air. and letting
the pots be properly proportioned to the size
of the plant, with sufficient soil for them to
grow in, not keeping them too long in small
pots after they have done Towering, as they
are apt to become stintcd in their growth
In watering them, give them sufficient at a
time to wet their roots to the botcom of the
pot, but do not keep them saturated all the
time, nor suffer them to wait for want of it.,
and keep them clean from dust on their
leaves, as it stops their pores and makes
them turn yellow and sickly.
CLOVER AS MANURE. "a crop of clover
is worth great deal more for manure to
plow it under than it is to feed it to stock.
Every animal eating a ton of clover keeps
back large portion of it in bone and mus
Gle, and converts much Of it into carbonic
acid gas, all of which would otherwise be
retained in the soil From this we conclude
chat one of the best modes of cnriching a
soil is to pillow in green crops, especially clo-
yer. 1t should be done when the clover is
is ripe, as it is worth more at that time
1t saves barns, carting and re-carting and
keeps the soil in q healthy condition, very
much like new soil. If you let the clever
ripen. the ground will be 50 plcntifully filled
with seed that it will not need restocking
We glorify men who build expensive barns
and cellars in which to save manure, wher
We should glorify the man who has no barr
at ALL" So says New-York farmer.

A WOMAN'S QUESTION.

BY MISS PROCTOR.
Before trust my fate to thee,
Or place my hand in thine
Before let thy future give
Color and form to mine;
Before peril all for thee, question thy soul te
night for me-
break all sl ghter bonds, no feel
A shadow of regret;
Is there one link within the past
That holds thy spirit yet?
Or is thy faith as clear and free as that which
can pledge to thee?
Does there within thy dimmest dreams
A possible future shine,
Wherein thy life could henceforth breathe,
Untouched unshared by mine?
If so. at any pain or cost, oh, tell me before all
is lost.
Look deeper still If thou canst feel
Within thy inmost soul
That thou hast kept a portion back,
While have staked the whole,
Let no false pity spare the blow, but in true mer-
cy, tell me so.
Is there within thy heart need
That mine cannot fulfil?
One chord that any other hand
Could brtter wake or still?
Speak now-lest at some future day my whole
life wiher and decay.
Lives there within thy nature hid
The demon-spirit Change,
Shedding passing glory still
On all things new and strange?
1t may not be thy fault alone-but shield my
heart against thy own
Couldst thou withdraw thy hand one day
And answer to my claim,
That Fate. and that todsy's mistake
Not thou-had been to blame;
Some soothe their conscience thus: but thou-oh
surely thou wilt warn me now.
Nay. answer mott dare not hear
The words would come too late;
Yet would spare thee all remorse,
So comfort thee, my fate:
Whatever on my heart may fall remember, !
lc0tid risk ii all.
Here is something for freckle-faced ladies.
4 celebrated compound for the removal of
fleckes, used and recommended by Lola
Montez, is made of the following Ingredients
Venice soap one ounce; lemon juice, half
an ounce; oil Of bitter almonds, quarter Of
an ounce; deIiquidaed oil Of tartar, quarter
of an ounce; oil of rhodium three drops.
