Currant Bushes.

Any one can raise currant bush, but
the thing is to prduce fine bush. Take
Young sprouts Of last years growth, and
remove the eyes from the lower portion Of
the shoot for about eight inches, which
will prevent suckers being thrown up
from the root. Plant in spring or au-
tumn, in rich ground. A the roots Of
the currant do not extend themselves
far in search Of food, they should be well
supplied yearly with rotten manure, dug
n with hoe. The bush should not be
permitted to form thick head, but kept
omen. The last years wood should Be
cut back four or Eve inches every spring,
according TO strength Of growth. The
culture Of this excellent fruit 10 usually
much neglected, even 10 tho best Of gar
dens. II seems to BE- the general belief,
that currant bush can thrive and pro-
ducs fruit in any situatiou, and without
culture. II will live and bear an apology
for fruit, bat it i nearly oil skin and
seeds, and ultric acid. Those Who have
not tasted and seen the produce Of bush.
q properly cultivatsd win be surprised
8 the richness and perfection Of lavol
which this fruit may bs made 70 attain.
Plant eight fest apart, treat wsll, asd
your table may b supplied with this cheaT
and healthful luxury, costing you really
nothing st all.-T

Life Without Love.

We sometimes meet with men who
seem to think that an indulgence in af-
fectionate feeling is weakness. They will
return from a journey, and greet their
families with distant dignity, and move
among their children with the cold and
lofty splendor Of an iceburg surrounded
BY its broken fragments. There is hard
" more unnatural sight on earth than
one Of these families without heart
A father had better extinguish a boy 8
eye than take away his heart. Who that
has experienced the joys Of friendship,
and values sympathy and affection, would
not rather lose all that is beautiful in ma
lures scenery, than be robbed Of the hid
den treasure of his hearty Cherish, then
your hearts best affections. Indulge in
the warm and gushing emotions Of fillial,
paternal, and fraternal love.
The Tipton advertiser. [volume] (Tipton, Cedar Co., Iowa) 1856-1962, 1858-07-31

A young man named Albert G. Eldridge,
Of Toledo, committed suicide by jumping
overheard from the screw steamer Northern
Light on her last trip down.
The circumstances Of the case are pc
culiar, and show to what an extene the
feelings may be wrought upon BY that all
powerful sentiment, love. Mr.. Eldridge
was company with pleasure party who
had made the tour Of Lake Superior
Among these was young lady from
Cleveland named Miss H, daughter
Of heavy forwarding merchant Of that
city. To this young lady, who was every
thing attractive and interesting, the un-
fortunate young man was devotedly at
tached. How long the attachment had
existed, or to what extent it was recip-
rocated, we are not able to say, but his
attentions were very assiduous during the
early portion Of the trip. He lived in
the pure light Of an undivided love, and
was most happy in being near its object
--at least 80 his undisguised and open ac-
tions Indicated. All went happily until
the return of the boat, when she receiv-
ed NJ a passenger = young man who
became acquainted with Miss H,
and thenceforward devoted himself to
her. She seems to have entered into
the Irritation with keen xest 80 keen
in fact, that her lover was driven into an
unmistakeable fit Of the blues. He spent
his time in walking the upper deck with
his hands in his pockets, sitting with his
feet hanging over the side, and leaning
over the stern gazing into the dark and
troubled waters, which rivalled the CON-
motion which that worst Of oil disap-
pointments--a love derided--had stirred
up in his bosom. At Mackinaw the par
u went ashore to inspect the Island, and
wanted him to accompany them. He
moodily refused saying he was not want
ed. His conduct attracted the attention
Of every one on board, which made his
poor case worse, for nobody has sympa-
thy with the troubles Of lover except
those who are bound in the same ties
Shortly after entering upon Lake Hu
ron, he was accosted BY his mistress, a,
he sat by himself on the side Of the boat
She placed her hand upon his shoulder
and spoke to him in an inquiring tone
The Tipton advertiser. [volume] (Tipton, Cedar Co., Iowa) 1856-1962, 1858-07-31

Hs replied that he had no desire to min
gle N the diversions of his companions,
but would rather die at once. She re-
piled kindly, desiring him not to SPEAK 30,
and requesting him to come into the cab
in. Instead Of complying, he gave her
ono look, and without a word, plunged
overheard. A scream from the lady bro I
the remainder Of the company to the side.
He was seen to struggle for = few moments,
and then sunk never to rise. With the
image of his beloved before his eyes, he
sprang into the embrace Of death with
out moments warning.
He was young man Of good standing
i Toledo, and has been engaged in busi-
ness there for some years. The lady il
of one of che best families in Cleveland,
sed the c-cnA excited no little feeling
Every effort was made to keep the affair
still, the officers of tho boat reporting
that he fell overheard accidentally, but

came down on the boat, who were cog

Miscellaneous.


For the Advertiser.
Evcnissg In COantry Burial Ground.
The shadows deepen--lengthen the
branches Of the frs sway to and fro in
the night air; the pale silver light Of the
moon floods meadow and field; while be-
yond lies the forest, casting its dark shad-
ow over the deep valley beneath. Save
the rustling, quivering movement Of the
leaves, al is silent as the palace of the
Angel Of Death. How!swectly beautiful!
How silently sublime! Can ii be that in
a world seemingly 50 pure and holy there
could be ought Of sin or sorrowY These
monuments, that stand white and gleam-
ing in the moonlight, tell the time worn
story that through sin, death came into
the world.
As we stand within the limits of this
consecrated acre, we experience q deep
feeling Of solemnity. We walk down .
narrow path that winds amongth mounds,
and pause beneath the silent shadow Of
dropping willow. Here is the grave Of
one whom the earth could i'll afford to
lose . soldier Of the cross, who, tried
and faithful, laid down his weapons but
with his life.
A few steps beyond, there sleeps pi-
oneer, whose works live after him. The
fragrance which is waited from the clio
yer fields, seems a sweet incense Of
thanksgiving to him who cleared the up
land and the meadow.
Beside yon tombstone blooms a fair
white rose, emblem of one loved and un-
forgotten--the sainted Mary Bramwell.
While the winds sigh through the long
waving grass, and the elms take up the
strain, murmuring in mournful numbers
a requiem above the sleeping dead, we
would tell you Of her life. Many years age
she came among US, young and beautiful
yet chastened by care and sorrow. She
came for health; and when, with return
ing strength, she watched our rushing,
foaming river, heard the glad rejoicing Of
nature, and marked at sunset the shadows
creeping across the meadow, and the glo-
| ~ that fingered on the eastern hill-tops,
she exclaimed,-"This world, Oh God,
is very beautiful IL thank Thee that !
live" With heart filed with humble,
| grateful love towards the giyer Of all good,
she laid upon his altar the Offering Of
youth and beauty, Of wealth aud talent:
"Whcre'er tear was dried, wounded
heart bound up, bruised spirit with the
dew of sympathy annointed," there wss
she, her voice breathing comfort and her
eye speaking hope. Thus she lived
among US, honored and beloved by all.
Time passed; and she went with band
of teachers to the west. You know the
story Of her life while thereof her
self-denying efforts, her faith and hope,
--of the cheerful spirit which sank M
der no encouragement, for you were one
Of those 70 whom she proved heaven
sent blessing Five years after. she re.
tnrped to her home, we hoped, to regain
her health--she said to die. She was
right; and we are now standing beside
her sleeping dust. She rests far from
her kindred, but none the less peacefully;
for the everlasting Father, who led her
through life, now guards her in death.
