SAVING AND APPLYING MAN.
uRES, r-

Any substance which restores the elements
of fertility to the soil, may be termed a manure.
Vegetable matter differs much in its action
from animal matter. Green vegetables when
deprived of vitality, rapidly decay; great sue
culency promotes this, and it is facilitated by
the azotiznd matters Of the day. Dry vegetables
decay more slowly, the sap being dried out;
but it soon commences when moistened or mix
ed with animal matters, as when straw is en-
ployed as litter. Much more manure may be
made upon nine-tenths of the farms IN this
county by judicous expenditure of labor de-
voted to that purpose. The waste of substances
which would form valuable manure if saved
and composted, upon many farms, and by saw
ing, economical farmers too, would be Of great
importance CttLtiUdtor.

The Reason Why.

The Reason Why.
Many a glorious speculation has failed for
the same good reason that the old Texas Ran
ger gave when he was asked why he didn't
buy land when it was so dog cheap. A cor
respondent tells the story:
"Well, I did come nigh Onto taking eight
thousand acres onst,'' said old Joe mournfully.
y ou see, ole dat, two of the boys came IN
from an Indian hunt, without any shoes, and
offered their titles to the two leagues just be-
low here for pair of boots
"For pair of boots' I cried out.
"Yes, for pair of boots for each leauge.'
"But why on earth didn't you take it,
THEY'D be worth hundred thousand dollars
to-day. Why didn't you give them the boots !?
"Jest cause | didn't have the boots to give,
said old Joe, as he took another chaw OF to
bacco quite as contented as if he owned the
two leagues of land.

A Matter of Doubt

A Matter of Doubt
A trial, involving matters of delicate char
aeter, in which it was deemed necessary to es-
tablish the nature of an intimacy between the
defendant, married man, and young wo-
man, took place day or two ago. Among
other evidence offered, a witness, a daughter of
Eve, of course, stated that she observed the
pair sitting so very closely together that she
could not see daylight between them Graphic

her waist, and though her head was turned
away, he frequently stopped down and kissed
her lips, and she returned his caresses ardent

"You say you did not see the lady's face
Miss--?' queried one of the counsel. "How
then do you know that the woman the defend
ant embraced was not his wife?''
His wife-pshaw! Do you think I haven't
sense?"
whether nature has or has not provided
you with the average amount Of brains, mad

ney, pompously. "Please answer me the one [

A Sizeable Dog

A Sizeaole Dog
Two Yankees horse jockeys were discussing,
the other day, up in Berkshire, about the re-
spective merits of their horses, dogs, &C. when
one of them spoke in somewhat spreading
terms of the size Of certain dog.
"How large is that dog?' said the other.
"Well, dino exactly was the relpy; 81
won't pretend to give his measure just from
recollection, but one thing | know-I sent te
New Y ork for a full description of the critter
and the postage on the Dockeyment was jest

There was no further inquiries as to the size
the tale had been sufficiently extended.

s Studying Latin

{. We have heard of farmer, whose son had
for long time been, e,stensib1y stuuyit Ls.tsa.
in popular academy. The farmer not being
perfectly satisfied with the course and conduct
of the young hopeful, recalled him from school,
and placing him by the side of cart, one day,
thus addressed him:
"Now Joseph, here is fork, and there is a
heap of manure and cart; what do you call
them in Latin ?"
"Forkibus, cartibus, ct manuribus," said Jo-
seph.
"Wel now," said the old man, "if you don't
take that forkabus pretty quickabus, and pitch
that manuribus into that cartibus, I'll break

Joseph went to workibus forthwithibus.

Hafis in the Ascendent.

A few evenings ago party of "Young
Americans were standing in front of an an
ciknt-looking saddler's shop, kept by one Hans
Dutehman. Mischief reigned among their
number, and, to have some sport with our
German friend; one of them opened the door
and thus addressed him:
Il say, Germany, hev yer got any saddles
for dogs?"
Now, Young America, no doubt, expected
Hans to land a stick of wood in the immediate
vicinity of the door; but no! Looking up from
his work, quite composedly, he replied

AcKNowLHDaH GOD.

Whoever pretends to reason, and, and calls
himself man, is obliged to acknowledge God
and to demean himself religiously towards him ::
for God is to the understanding of man as the
light of the sun is to eyes, the first and the
plainest, and the most glorious object of it
He fills heaven and earth; and everything in
them doth represent him to us. Which way
soever we turn ourselves, we are encountered
with clear evidences and sensible demonstra-
tions of Deity Iallosten.

There is within my inmost heart,

Beside the stream Of friendship starts,
And deep and true It's waters dart,
While this is still congeaied-
Yet deeper is this fount unknown,
More pure its waters be
H94 Sweet will the music of its tone
Como forth-and wild will be its moan
When storms shall cross the lea
For there shall come in future time,
A power its seal TO break
A ucafden who shall wake its chirns,
And pausing at MS brink shall ind

For this my soul doth hardly wait
As pours its daily song

Must forever ever wait 7

SHADOWS, THEN SUNSHINE.

| "Work, work work :" I repeated the word
| to myself with bitterness, as I leaned out from
the window to catch the sweet breezes of the
morning as they swept up from the green mead
ow lands, cool and delicious. Lines of misty,
| golden light, were slanting down from the hill
| tops, making amber paths across the green,
dewy fields, and amber ladders from one tree
top to another, through all the wide expanse
of woods that my eye could reach.
Under the window, roses and lilacs blossom
ed-tEe roses tossing their red and white, and
the lilacs their cloudy purple clusters, backward
and forward, meeting as if to exchange kisses,
and mingle in one sweet breath, their united
fragrance.
But what were the sunlight, the trees, the
dewy fields and flowers to me? l might not
go out freely among them, my feet could not
press the green grass of the fields; 1 might not
wander where the breezes made anthems
through the trees; my hands might not pluck
the sleepless flower which bent forward to meet
their weary outstretching. i must work for
labor was the only gift for me; whether made
it pleasure Or curse it was the only alter
native And SO with tears in my eyes, which
the sunlight mockingly bridged across with
COLDER bars, seated myself at my daily task.
Tsere great well of bitterness within my
heart, which, with the most rigorous will, 1
could hardly keep from overfowing passion
ate upheaving of my deep, womanly nature,
which in vain tried to press backward into
the quiet channel it had always known. In
vain, for it surged up to catch the light and
the shadows, which, even in my bitterest mo
ments, 1 shut my heart against. 1t was
strange time to me; can you comprehend it,
reader? A time when 1 denied everything
for fear that was the sweet foundation of
hope.
Work, work, work." I said again, press
ing my fingers close upon my eyes, and letting
fall the garment on which l had been sewing,
