A PLEA FoRs0LD MAIDs--A woman at the
age of thirtythrec and third years, who has new
er been married, is considered passee; is called an
cold maid The term is most unjustly used in de-
rsion. The very fact of being old made is prima
tacie evidence of the possession of purity, pru-
dence and selfdenial and these essentialto the
character of perfect wife; without them no wo-
man is worth having.
Being an cold maid" implies decision of charac-
ter; neither sham, nor shows, courtly manners,
splendid persons have won them over; nor fair
promises shallow tears; they looked beyond
the manner and the dress, and finding no cheering
indication of depth of ulind and sterling principles,
they gave up the spacious present for the chance
of more solid future, and determined in hope and
patience and resignation to ''bide their time"

ALARMING INCREASE OF CELIBACY.-This Is
getting to be an alarming fact to the political
economists and in an article on the subject, 'Once
Week" thus remarks:
The probabilities of marriage of maiden at
twenty are slightly superior to those of bachelor,
and ineomparatively greater than those of widow
of the same age; but with the lapse of years the
ratios change; the probabilities of marriage at
thirty-fye being for bachelor, one to twenty
seven; for spinster, to thirty-fve; and for a
widow, one to fve-the attractions of the widow
standing to those of the spinster in the surprising
relation of FIVE to oBe-or, perchance, that number
mystically representing her comparative readiness
to natrimOny Thus the chance of finding happ-
ness and home diminshes with years
The growing disposition to celibacy, among the
Young men of this class, though in some measure
attributable to selfish and luxurious cynicism, is
chiefly due to the irrational expenditure conse-
quent on marriage, and the unattractiveness Of
prospective associations with women so unlikely,
from their artificial habits, to yield domestic hap
pness If this cebacy frequently defeats the
economical consideration deciding to it, Gas it
should } and ends in much immortality and unhap-
piness among men, how UNNECESSARILY evil must
be its influence on the other sex; and what vlO-
aton of natural law must that social organization
be which so harshly represses the affections, and
bereaves so large class of the support and SYM
pathy they are entitled TO from man
"SpEAK YE CoMFORTABLY."-Tbe weary need
sympathy and encouragement They are prone to
despond Their works are burdensome to them
They do it listlessly, careess " mourntully; some
times they tempted not to do it. They are
disposed to magnify their difficulties and to under
rate their capabilities They take gloomy
view of things. Their hands hang down; their
knees feeble; their brow is clOuded-
And it would be both unwise and unkind to
blame them. Would it lessen their fatigue, do
you think, to censure them for being tired? Or
would they be likely to grow more hopeful through
your scolding them for their faintheartedEess?
No; they want comfort, not reproof; gentle coun
sels not harsh animadversion.

NAILS IN FRUIT TREES.-A singular fact; and
one worthy of being recorded, was mentioned to
a few days since, by Mr. Alexander Duke, of
Abermarle. He stated that whilst on a visit to a
neighbOr, his attention called to large peach
orchard, every tree of which was totally destroyed
by the ravages Of the worm with the exception of
three and these the most thrifty and flourish
ing peach trees he ever saw. The only cause of
their superiority known to his host, was an expe
rlment made in consequence of observing that
those parts of wOrm-eaten timber into which nails
had been driven were generally sound. When his
trees were about year old he drove tcnpenny
nail through the body as near the ground as posi-
BILE; whilst the balance of his orchard had gradual
ly failed, aud finally yielding entirely to the raw
ages of the worms, these three trees, selected at
random, treated precisely in the same manner with
the exception of the ualing had always been heal
thy, furnishing him at the very period with the
greatest profuson Of the most luscious fruit it
is supposed that the salt Of iron afforded by the
nails Is offensive to the worm, while it is harmless,
perhaps even beneficial, to the tree
A chemical writer on the subject, says:
''The oxydation ruSting OF the iron by the
sap, evolves ammonia, which, as the sap rises,
will of course impregnate every particle of the foil
age, and prove too severe dose for the delicate
palate of intruding insects"
The writer recommends driving halfa dozen
nailsimto the trunk. Several experiments of this
kind have resulted successfully.

Treatment Of Fopls Gfcctcd nth Lice or
RonP.-ln your paper of April 5, the inquiry is
made as to the best remedy to effectually destroy
lice on poultry if you will allow me, | will state
what have always found to be the most success
full and speedy Of the many remedies which l
have tried and that is take lard and thorough
ly mix with it spirits of turpenne sufficient 20 cut
OF soften it well; put this mixture in a vial that
can be kept cOrked, and with mouth large enough
to admit the finger, and then, when wanted,
thoroughly rub with the finger little of into the
feathers around the top Of the fowls neck, and on
the head as far as there are feathers, also under
each wing and around the vent, and repeat the
application in about ten days if necessary The
lard IN measure neutralizes the turpentne and
prevents it from making the fowl sore when applied
under the wings, where small chickens especially,
are very tender and apt to get sore if the mixture
is too strong Of turpeu!ine, and they are exposed
Immediately after its application This soreness,
however, is readily cured by applying little sweet
oil.
As to giving sulphur to fowls, little of it occa-
sionally is not only very beneficial to keep them in
good health where they confined, but also to
improve their plumage, as it makes their feathers
soft and glossy, but for lice have never found it
SO efectua either to drive them off the old ones,
or to destroy their nits the lard and turpentine
