FARMERS DAUGHTERs.--Girls, don't
look towards the city with longing eyes;
if you would preserve the rosy freshness
of your cheeks, stay in the country air
and sun.
Don't ape village customs by wearing
cloth of CATERS when you walk; they are
not suited to rough country reads; or by
inytinga an evening party of your friends
to meet at nine o'clock, for that is their
bed time.
When you would adopt custom, ask
if it is suited to country life, not if it is
fashionable in the city.
"Don't stand in awe Of a young lady
Gust from the city," We would rather
look for wife where there is less starch
and carmine-among farmers daughters
who have the glow Of health in the cheek
and spark of intelligence in the eye
Rest satisfied to be farmers daughters;
you know not what you would sacrifice
were you to change places with the envied
city girls. Go to work and make your
selves and your homes as pleasant, lovel Y
and attractive as you can.
Read and study, and use all the means
within your reach to cultivate your minds.
Select from your associates of both SEX
es, those who are equally aspiring with
yourselves, and most in social gathering
to improve your conversational! talents and
manners.

TIE LATEST Fish SroRY.-A gentleman
who has just returned from Missouri says,
while he was sojourning at the town of
Trenton Grundy Co, a ponderous fish came
down the Grand River, swan under the
huge water wheel Of grist mill and COM
pletely stopped the operations of the con-.
Germ for several hours. The inhabitants of
the place turned out en- masse, and at once
resorted to measures for the capture ofthe
scaly monster. A large hook was fasten
ed to a powerful chain, and then attached
to the giIls of the fish, and eight yoke Of
oxen hitched to the chain. After making
several Intellectual pulls, another yoke was
added, when they succeeded in drawing
the fish out upon the bank; where it kill
ed after desperate conflict. On opening
the monsterous critter the word "JOnah'
was found carved, in an ancient style Of
letter, on the inside of the backbone,
which places it beyond doubt that this
was the identical fish which swallowed
Jonah several months since.

Avoiding the Responsibility

Brother Crump and Noel were members
Of the church, and both clever honest men
who paid their taxes and debts, as the
same annually occurred; with a regularity
at once Christian and commendable. If;
when the settling day came round, Brother
Noel was short" Brother Crump was
sure to be in funds, and on the other hand
it almost seemed proyidental how, if Bro.
Crump fell behind" B other Noel al
ways had surprise. Thus borrowing
from and lending to each other, worship
ping in the same church and living mile
apart, an intimacy gradually ripened be.
tween them, so at least they did not hesi-
tate to speak in the frankest and most ia.
mlllar manner to each other, even in re-
gard to their respective foibles.
Now,it came to pass that Brother Crump
during the liveliest period of the cotton
season drove into Wetumpka and disposed
of his crop of ten bales, at very fair price
of twelve and half cents per pound. It
was more than he expected, and, as the
world was easy with him he determined
to invest, and did actually invest portion
of the proceeds of the sale of cotton, in a
barr ell Of Western whisky, paying there,
fore at the rate Of precisely two pounds of
middling cotton for one gallon of ode"
whisky. Of course it was known in the
settlement that old Crump had bought
whole barrel, and after few weeks people
began to observe that his nose grew redder
and his eyes more moist. The idea that
Brother Crump was drinking too much,
Il IN iobh
as one might say, it became epidemical.
People talked and talked--more especially
what few of other denominations there
were thereabout.
Brother Noel was sorely troubled at the
scandal, and especially regretted the iDju:
ry it brought to society at Sharon. So
one morning he stepped over brother
Crump's and found the old man in doze
in the little porch
"Won't you take a dram - asked broth
er Crump, as soon as he was made aware
of to presence of his neighbor.
"Why, yes; I'm not agin dram when
a body wants it."
Brother Crump got out his bottle and
the friends took a dram apiece.
Don't you think, brother Noel,' said
Crump, " that spirits is blessin'!"
"Yes," replied Noel "spirits is bles
sin that some of us abuses
"Well now, brother Noel, who do you
think abuses the bessin' q
"Well, it is hard to say-but people
talk; don't you think you drink little
too much, brother Crump!"
at is hard to say," remarked Crump,
Sometimes I've thought | was drinkin'
too much and then agin I'd think may be
not What is man? a weak aCorrum
of the dust? So [ left it to the Lord to
say whether I was goin too far in spirits.
l put the whole 'sponsibility on him; l
prayed if was drinking too much, for
him to take away my appetite for spirits:
Here brother Noel groaned piously and
asked, "What then, brother Crumpg"
And" replied Crump, "I've prayed that
prayer three times, and he hain't done it.
So I'm clear of the 'sponsibility, any way"
"The Lords will be done!" CALCULATED
Noel, and, after taking another dram, he
went home, thinking all the way how
cleyerly Brother Crump had cleared the
responsibility.-Alabanaa paper.
