The Associated Press deem it due to the
public to state that the Nova Scotia Tele-
graph Co., have regardless Of the wishes Of n
large majority of the leading presses Of the
country, and Of the owners OF the
Telegraph lines, West Of Noyia Scotia
put an end TO the foreign news arrangement
which has existed for the past ten years, and
it is now understood that the Managers
Of the Nova Scotia line have made secret and
exclusive arrangements with private party
who, there is reason to believe, may attempt
to use the European news for speculative
purposes, For the present, therefore, the
public should stand upon their guard. AS

Potatoe Culture.

We publish the following communication
on the subject OF "Potatoe Culture" /" from
8 gentleman who is said to have been very
successful in raising fine potatoes, and who
is willing to give the result of his expert
snee to the public:
"The land for the above should be blue
grass or timothy sod. turned in the fall, or
new ground once cultivated. For an early
crop of Irish potatoes, as soon in the spring
as the ground viii plow, and pulverize free
ly. harrow three or four times, and mark it
off slightly four feet each way, make a
slight hill in the cross; about an inch above
the general surface; prepare and have some
6ne manure from the stable; cut the pota-
toes with two good eyes to the piece. place
in the hill two pieces with the eyes up; fol-
low with the basket containing the manure,
and put on the potatoe as much as you can
gather in three fingers: cover with an inch
Of fine dirt. As soon as the potatoe sprouts
above the ground, follow with good cult
vator, twice in the row each way, once q
week until the vine is in blossom; then do
not run so close as the potatoe is forming
1t viii then require a slight billing with the
hoe, commencing ten or twelve inches from
the vine, and draw within an inch of the
vine. After this keep the middle clean with
the cultivator, and pull the grass aud weeds
from the hill. For late crop plant the last
of June. ."-&. Louis Republican.

a WASDERISe PRIETER.-karl Ugling,
. journeyman printer, died at Detroit few
days ago, after wandering over a large por-
ton of the world. According to The Ohio
Salesman, he was banished from Baden,
Germany, for participating in the revolution
of 1848. He reached the United States
just in time to volunteer in the Mexican war,
and was wounded and disfgured for life at
the baltic of Buena Vista. After the war,
he travelled from Maine to Louisiana, and to
the frontiers of civilization, as journey
man printer; commenced the first German
paper ever published in San Francisco, sub
sequently Joined theatrical company in
Cincinnati, and was everywhere known IS
scholar, poet, musician and wit. He never
remained long enough in one place to call il
his home, but wherever he went he left
friends who admired his extraordinary tai
ents and his characteristic vagaries. He
could spin yarn, write a poem, make q
speech, sing song, bring melody from a
guitar. or tip glass of lager beer with un-
fequaled spirit and cosmopolitan elegance

ILLUSTRATIONS OF IGNoRANCE.-A citizen
of Boston, who has travelled in Europe,
states the following facts:
''In Italy you will see farmer breaking
up his land with two cows, and root of a
tree for plough, while he is dressed in skins
with the hair on. In Rome, Vienna, and
Dresden, if you hire a man to saw your
wood, he does not bring saw-horse. He
never had one, nor his father before him.
But he places one end of the saw on the
ground and the other against his breast, and
taking the wood in his hands, he rubs it
against tie saw; and he will be day doing
two hours work. 1t is solemn fact, that
in Florence, city filled with the triumphs
of art, there is not single auger; and if a
carpenter -wsuld bore hole, he does it with
a red hot pokeri This results not from want
of industry, but of sagacity of thought
In Rome charcoal is principally used for fu-
ell, and you will see string of twenty mules
bringing little sacks of it upon their backs,
when one mule would draw it all in cart
But the charcoal-vender never had a cart
and so he keeps his twenty mules aad feeds
them!"

upon the arm of her beloved James. -
He is tall. cadaverous individual, with
melancholy expression and eyes askew-but

stamped upon that somewhat care-worn face.
A sanguine temperament, large perceptive

down upon her forehead-prominent fea-
lures. People meeting her evenin crowd
say, "What strange looking woman?''-
1t is a marked, but not a bad face. 1t says.

anger, solitude. 1t is not wholly good, and
it could not be entirely bad. It hints at ug-

K1ss1NG ScEEE.-A San Francisco letter,
describing the fortnightly departure of the
steamer says: ''Then comes a great time.
and the hugging and kissing begin--such
awkward kissing, too! random shots, an
outrageous waste of the good things of this
life Sometimes kiss lights on the nose,

it gets smashed on the first movement,
and by the time woman has got through
and been passed from hand to band, or raLh-
er arms to arms, of brothers, cousins, friends
and acquaintance, she is a pitiable object,
and presents the appearance of having gone
through an Irish row-red eyes, hair down,
bonnet smashed and knocked around on one
side of the head, shawl askew, and the gen.
eral symmetry of her figure destroyed by
pockets stuffed full of donations from friends

GossIP-The bane of social life; always
indicating a small mind; having affinity
with petty concerns; often malicious mind,
delighting in traducing others; irrevereEce
for truth, risking the violation of it for the
pleasure of telling stories, which may be
false, often are known to be so; great lack
of honor, a snesking disposition, saying be-
hind the back of another what would not
be said before his face; presumptive want
of power to converse on nobler subjects, at
least lack of interest in them. Generally
supposed to belong exclusively to woman,
but supposed very incorrectly. Male gos-
sips are very numerous, and worse than fe-
male. Their spheres are different. Wom-
en- gossip chiefly about domestic life, love,
marriage, Irritation, servants, entertain
ments, and world of mischief they do
there, of -burnings, heart-sinkings, and
heart breakings, of broken ties, and alienat-
ed affections. But men gossip too; au-
thors, professors, commercial men. All!
what keen, biting, withering gossip they
have, half untrue, wholly needless.
Literary gossip, political gossip-why. the
world is half ruled by gossip-half its mis-
eries-are caused by gossip.

The teacher of large school had little
girl under her care who was exceedingly
backward in her lessons. She vas at the
bottom of the class, and seemed to care put
little about what had passed in it. During
the school hours singing was sometimes EN-
ployed as relaxation, and noticing that TINS
girl had very clear, sweet voice, her teacn-
er SAID to her: -
..Jane you have a good voice, and You
may lead in the singing
She Frightened up, and from that time
her mind seemed more active. Her lessons
were attended to, and she made steady pro-
gress. One day, as the teacher was going
home, she overlook Jane and one of her
school fellows.
"Well Jane," said she. you are getting
on very well at school; how is it that you
do so much better now than you did at the
beginning of the half year, .E.
"I do not know why it is, replied Jane.
ST know what she told me the other day,
said ber companion who was with her,
''And what was that?" asked the teacher.
Why" she said she was encouraged
Yes. there was the secret-she was en-
couraged. She felt she was not duh in ey-
erything; she had learned self-respect, and
thus she was encouraged to self-imPrOve-
ment. TET
Take the hint. dear fellow teacher. and
try to reach the intellect through the heart.
Endeayor to draw out the dormant faculties
of your children by discriminating culture
and well-timid praise. Give them the credit
whenever you can, and allure them with
hopeful words. Many dull minded child

And on the other hand. how often has ge-
NAL smile or an approving remark awaken
