Big Brindle.


In Nashville, many years ago there
resided gentleman ot great hospital.
ity, large fortune, aud though unedu.
Gated, possessed of hard-knot sense.
Col. W. had been elected to the LegiS-
lature, and had also been Judge of
the County Court @ .. uIgl
The elevation, however, made him
somewhat pompous, and he became
very fond Of using big words. On
his farm he had Il large misehievous
OK, called "Big BrIndle OK" which
frequently broke down his neighbors
fences, and committed other depreda-
tions, much to the ColoneRs annoy.
ance. o.,y
One morning, after breakfast, in
presence Of some large gentlemen who
had stayed with him over night, and
were now on their way to town, he
called his overseer and said to him:
"Allen, | desire you to impound
Big Rrindle, in order that | may hear
no more OF the animadiversions OH
his eternal depredations." b,
All bowed and walked out sorely
puzzled to know what the Colonel
meant.
So after Colonel W. left for town he
went to his wife and asked her what
the Colonel meant by telling him to
impounG the OK.
why" said she, she meant to tell
you to put him in peu." via
Allen lett to perform tue feat, which
was no inconsiderable one, as the ani,
NAL was very wild and vicious, and
after a great deal oftrouOle and vexa-
ton, he succeeded.
WELL" said he, wiping the per-
splration from his brow, soliloquizing,
"this is impounding is itl Now I'm
dead sure the old Colonel will ask me
il | have impounded Big Brindle and
III puzzle him as bad as he did me-"
The next day the Colonel gave O
dinner party, and as he was not aris.
tocratic, Allen, the overseer, sat down
with the company. After the second
or third glass had been discussed, the
turned TO the overseer and
said:
"Eh, Mr.. Allen, did you impgund
Big Brirdlo"
Allen straigbtened himself, and
looking around at the company said:
"Yes, | did; but old BrindIo trans,
cended the impannol Of the impound,
and scattleophisticated all over the
equanimity Of the forest" E.,
The company burst into an immod,
crate fit of laughter, while the Colo
nel's face redeemed with discontinue.
"What do you mean by that, sir!D
"Why | mean Colonel" said AL
len, "that old Brindle being prognos,
ticated with an idea OF cholera, ripped
aud tared, snorted and paved dirt,
jumped the f4nce-tuck to the woods,
and wouldn't be impounded nohow."
This was too much; the company
roared again, in which the Colonel
was forced to join, and in the midst
Of the laughter, Allen left the table,
saying to himself, as he went, 81
reckon the Colonel won't ask me to
ImpOund any more oxen"

How TO MAKE PASTE, (Halls Jour.
nal Of Health )-Too numerous to
mention are the little convenences OF
having little -four paste always at
hand, as those made ofany of the gums
impart a glaze to printed matter, and
make it rather difficult to read. Dis
solve tablespoonful Of alum in a
quart of warm water, and when cold,
stir in as mucl. -four as will give it the
consistency of thick cream, being par.
ticular to beat up all the Jumps, then
stir in as much powdered rosln as will
stand on dime, then throw in half a
dozen cloves merely to give it pleas
ant odor. Next, have vessel on the
fire, which has tea-cupful or more
Of boiling water; pour the flour mixture
on the boiling water; stir it well all
the time; in a very few minutes it will
be of the cons;stence OF mush; pour
it into an earthern or china vessel; let
it cool; lay a cover on it, and put it in
a cool place. 1t will keep for months.
When needed for use, take out por.
tion and soften it with the warm wa.
ter We keep ours covered an inch
or two in water, to prevent the sur
face from drying up. Paste handled
in this way will last for twelve months

PoTATo CROP OF WESTERN New
YoRK.-The present autumn's crop OF
potatoes is unusually large, but con.
6derably affected by the rot. The
freeze of the last Of September also
injured many of those then ung ather-
ed-the long varieties, with their ends
near the surface, suffering most. The
RpaJ Neao Yorker tells of crops near
Rochester, where Buckeyes gave $50
bushels per acre, Peach Blows about
25O bushels, Flukes the same, aud
Prince Alberts, from 260 to 800
bushels. The Davis Seeding the Ru.
raj thinks "the most productive good
potato grown. In hills three feet
apart, each way, it produced 3l8
bushels per acre; in rows two feet
apart, and the sets one foot apart in
the rows, 344 bushels" from 60to 20
bushels more than Prince Alberts or
Peach Blows, with the same treat

CHARooAL.-Charcoai surpasses all
other substances in the power which il
possesses Of condensing ammonia
within its pores, particularly when it
has been previously heated to redness.
1t absOrbs ninety times its volume of
ammoniacal gas, which may be again
separated by again moistening it with
water. 1t is by virtue Of this power
that the roots of plants are supplied
in charcoal exactly as in hplnus, with
an atmosphere Of carbonic acid and
air, which is renewed as quickly as it
is distracted. Charcoal has a phys:-
cal as well as chemical effect on soils,
which is decidedly useful. Itrenders
them, as far as it is present, light aud
lriable, and gives additional warmth
to them by its color, which absorbs
and retains readily the rays of the sun
during the day. Wherever charcoal
has been applied, rust never affects
the growth OF wheat.-Liebig. r.v

U An anecdote relative to the
late Professor Wilson is just now cir.
culating. When the sui.or for the
hand Of Professor Wilson's daughter
had gained the lady's appreciation, he
was, ofcourSe, referred to papa. Hav-
ing stated his probably not unexpect-
ed case, the young gentleman was
directed to desire the lady to come to
her father, and, doubtless, her obedi-
ehce was prompt. Professor Wilson
had before him, forreview, some work
on the fly leaf of which was inscribed,
4" With the authors comp!iments."-.
lie tore this out, pinned it to his daugh-
ters dress, solemnly led her to the
young lover, and went back to his
work. Il
