give the Boys n Chance.

One Of the surest methods of attaching boy
to the farm, is to let him have something upon
it for his osea. Give him small plot of ground
to cultivate, allowing him the proceeds for his
own use. Let him have his steers to break, or
his sheep to care for. The ownership Of even
q fruit tree, planted, pruned, and brought to
bearing by his own hands, will inspire him with
an interest that no mere reward or wages can
give. In addition to the cultivation Of taste
ior farm life, which such a course wilcultiyate,
the practical knowledge gained BY the boy will
be Of the highest value, Being interested he
will be more obseryant, and will thoroughly learn
whatever is necessary for his success Another
and equally important advantage will be the ac-
customing him early to ieelresponsibility Many
! young men, though we'd acquainted with all the
manual operations Of the farm, fail utterly when
entrusted with the management of an estate,
: from want Of experience in planning for them
selves. Itismnch better that responsibility should
Be gradually assumed that yonng man should
be first thrown upon himself on attaining bis
majority. o. /. q.

r MAKING SoAP.--Procure good ashes; place
halfpeck Of lime in the bottom of the leach fer
each barrel Of ashes; if air Stacked, the quanti-
ty must be larger, according to the time it has
been exposed to the air. It is usual to place
straw below the lime to prevent the water from
carrying it off in particles. Place the ashes on
the lime, beating it compactly as each success
sive layer is applied, till the leach is fult. The
water poured upon the ashes should be hot,
until;the lye begins to run; and the time that
should elapse after the water is first applied,
till it passes through as lye, should not be less
than twenty four hours; il sooner, the ashes
have not been beaten sufficiently, and the lye
will be too weak. 1t vii! continue to run as
water is applied, but at the same time growing
weaker as the potash becomes carried off.
II the ashes could be perfectly fresh, no lime
would be required in the leach; as, when first
burned, ashes are caustic, but gradually loose
this quality by absorbing carbonic acid from the
cir. The lime abstracts this carbonic air, and
renders the lye again caustic.
If lye is not strong enough to float an egg,
it will not make good soap-but we have known
it to do this, and still cause failure, If not sui
fciently caustic. The last named defect may
generally be ascertained by pouring IN portion
Of some strong acid, as aquafortis or oil Of vi
troll, which will cause violent elfervescencc-
even strong vinegar will do. When this is the
case it shows that enough lime has not been
used; and it may still do to apply it. We have
known its use to cause success even after the
materials for the soap had been mixed togeth-
er.yaA
The grease must be first boi1ed--then pint
Of Iye added--afterwards quart, and SO on by
gradual additions till tie soap is made. A bar
rel of good ashes will make barrel of soap;
but If the barrel is strong enough to combine
well with the grease, the soap will be too strong
snd injute the clothes. This is remedied by
adding pail Of water to each pail Of freshly
made soap The Cs.ltivator.

They tell me he is passing sway.
Gliding softly from the scenes Of esrthsg
That lew brief hours and his heeting stay
With US mIst silent end
Departing in the hour OF his hrst young worth:
Passing gently into higher, brighter birth.
Where nngei spirits blend.
Yesi they tell me he Is silently leaving,
And soon will pass 10 bournes unknown;
And the fond friends are deeply grieving,
Ea+ Yet he seems passing calm in mind:
And ever presents that mild and cheerful tone,
That tells of heart at peace with Gods White
Throne,
OF heart with death resigned.
How bitter sad 1t Is TO pass the portal
When sudden the stern King gives command
How bitter lis for sympathy loving mortal,
To meet alone deaths mandate!
To die peTchance atar in Strangers land,--
To die unwept, unsung-with no dear hand
10 smooth cur final fate.
o, fraueht with bitterness is such doom,
Todepart thus distant and forsaken,
But Oh, how passing sweet to meet deaths gloom,
ss. Mid friends, and homes sweet shrine!
To die where affection weaves fond token
Where loving words are low and thrilling spoken.

And thou dear friend of our school boy years,
Round thee is shed homes truthful gieam;
Oh, glad thy lot 10 leave this vale of tears,
Mid such an Eden OF stainless love!
Oh, mid such pure affection, sweet I'd deem
The hour that closed life's itlul dream,
p And sped me on my route above.

Weave still loves sunshine round his heart;
StTew his stay with home treasures here
a sweet task 10 thee sweet given;
Andsweet performed, will lessen teath's smart,
And giving Joy, will pure joy thee impart,
And pave with peace his way TO Heaven.

On Saturday last Mr.. Orfurt arrived here
from Washington with instructions to take
possession Of the New York Post Office, and
cause the immediate arrest Of Isaac Y. FoW-
Ter. He proceeded 10 carry out the FIRST part
Of his Instructions and resumed the entire
charge Of The Post Office, which he now
hold with regard 10 the arrest Of Mr.. Fowler.
The matters was placed in the hands Of the
District Attorney, who issued q warrant for
his arrest on Saturday, and placed it in the
hands Of Capt Rynders, the United States
Marshal
Immediate search was made for Mr.. FoW-
Ter, which has been continued up 10 the pres
ent time, thus far without success. Dir.
Fowler left the New York Hotel, where be has
resided for the last ten years, ct o'clock
Sunday morning, since which time no one,
except the two or three intimate friends who
accompanied him, has been able 10 ascertain
his whereabouts.
The amount Of Mr. FOWler's alleged defal-
cation is vsriously estimated ct from SIS, 900
10 100000
His most intimate friends declare that It
will not exceed $50 900. The whole deficiency
is said to have occurred under the Admins
tratiOn Of President Pierce. Its being made
known ct the present time ia alleged to be Of
q political nature and Immediately connected
with the proceedings of the Charleston Con-
Yention.
The present bOndsmen Of Mr.. Fowler are
George Law and Augustus COnnoVer, but as
the defaleatiOn occurred under q former Ad-
ministratiOn, before they became his bonds
men, il is contended they are not liable.
The causes Of the defalcation are said TO
have arisen from the too great iiberslity Of
Mr.. Fowler to his friends, to whom be made
temporary loans Of the Department money for
the purpose Of extrieating them from difficult
ties, and which they failed to replace. It is
also stated that he has resorted at various

JAPANESE EMBASSY.

HAsHIHGToN5 May IA
At an early hour the Navy Yard was
thronged with dense multitude, including
many ladies'. Intense excitement Was every
where exhibited. Flags we're flying in al
directions. At half past IL gun from the
yard announced that the steamer bearing the
japanese Embassy was in sight Whereupon
there was q wild rush to the wharf. The
Philadslphia approached, while the Marine
Band upon her deck played The Star Span
gled Banner"
Mayor Berra went on board and was intro
duced to the ambassadors, extending them e
welcome in the naEe Of the citizens Of Wash
ington, for which they Acknowledged their
thanks.
The Treaty box was first brought from the
boat, and then followed the japanese under
the escort Of several naval officers. They
passed, as they landed, between the American
and Japanese flags. Hsving approached 10
where Captain Buchanan was standing, he,
in the presence Of his brother naval officers,
welcomed them in the name Of the President
Of the United States and the country, reeip-
rOcating the kind feelings expressed by the
Japanese Government when the Treaty was
made by the gallant Perry. The dignitaries
bowed their Acknowledgements.
While these ceremonies we're progressing, q
salute was fred from the Battery.
The cortege then formed. The intense ex-
citement continued throughout the entire dis
tance from the Navy Yard to the Quarters Of
the Japanese, which they reached at about q
quarter to o'clock.
So dense was the crowd Of pedestrians and
carriages, that the japanese cOrtege occupied
over an hour In going from the Capitol to
Willards.
The resident population is more excited
and enthusiastic than ever before, and the
whole march through the city was perfect
ovation.
The reception rooms at Willard's were
densely thrOnged with the wives, sisters and
daughters of the dignitaries who were as
sembled to receive these welcome visitors
Over an hour was required in the exchange Of
courtesies before the weary travellers were al
lowed to retire to their quarters.
The crowd has now dispersed, and the
military returned to their quarters.
