however, there was an immense throng in

that portion of the grounds a very brilliant

A Kentackx Ruegaag Match.

A pioneer named j. l.. Cruch, of Harlem
county, KY, while travelling over Cumberland
mountain got into a fight with bear. Bruin
was to much for Mr.. Crueh's dogs, when Mr.
Cruch, who had fought the Indians and con-
qpered them, concluded he would try the bear,
rather than lose one of bis Life guards. He
drew his large carving knife and commenced
battle with the bear, which was as large as an
ox-he struck him several blows, but the bear
was so large and SO fat that he did not much
mind knife, and in the struggle got his arms
around Mr. Cruch and gave him a hug also,
which was almost fatal. His dogs by this time
had rested a little and seeing that the life OF
their master rested on the second hug, they
sprang upon the bear, and all four went over q
cliff some twelve or fifteen feet high. They all
strsck together, the fall proving fatal to one
dog. Mr.. Cruch was uninjured, and he with
the dog still hung to their hold. The scene
was now an exciting one, each party struggled
for life. They continued on down small drain
until they found small hickory pole. Here
they let loose their holds, the bear ratified on
down the drain, about thirty yards, and was
unable to get any further. Mr.. Cruch was
unable to get his gun, for be could not walk a
step-he crawled some ten feet from the drain
and was compelled to stay there, his dog with
him, until about ten o'clock at night when
some boys accidentally came along coon hunt
ing and found him. As soon as they made q
fire and warmed Mr.. Cruch, he related the
whole. circumstance to them. The boys then
went on down the branch and shot the bear
and killed it. Mr.. Cruch fought in close
combat eight hours The bear weighed four
hundred pounds,

Gloomy Condition of Iowa.

No State in the West has suffered as muct
as Iowa, from the effects of over trading il
real estate-and all reports from there repre-
sent the pecuniary condition of the people az
gloomy one indeed. A correspondent of the
Lexington Observer cautions his friends from
trading for real estate anywhere in Iowa. He
says he has just sold land for one dollar pei
acre, and took his pay in trade at that, fol-
which he paid ten dollars in 1857. He pro-
ceeds-" No man living out Of this State car
have anything like correct idea of the eate'
hopctessness of the state of things in Iowa.
Speculation has been the ruin of the State

lessly in debt that they can never get start
again unless by paying off Indebtedness by re-
Epudiatiop. This place, which contained pop
ulation in 1857 Of $4,000, is now reduced to
less than 10000, and people leaving just as
fast as they can get money to get away upon.

The seuthern Habit of Snuff Tipping.

Smoking and chewing by mon and boys
and occasionally snuff taking by women in the
North, are habits filthy and disgusting enough
in all conscience, but they are cleanliness and
decency compared with the habit of snuff
dipping as practiced by women quite gener-
ally in the South. A quarter of century age
the practice prevailed extensively on the plan
tations, and snuff dippers were occasionally met
with among the fashionables in towns and
cities. The disgusting habit, like tobacco
chewing aud smoking, has grown with use
and the extent to which snuff dipping is. car
ried even among the first familts, is scarcely
credible 10 Northern females not familiar with
the nauseating habit Of the sex in some of the
Slave States. The excessive use of tobacco by
the snuff caters often Injuries health, and recent
" Miss Gibson, Southern lady, died from

being poisoned by the nicotine of tobacco.

that no other of the many forms in which to-
bacco is used is half SO disgusting as snuff Dip

so repugnant to that natural refinement which

WHAT Is A LADY.

= "A great deal of argument is going the
rounds respecting the titles of lady and the
name woman. The expression .lady" is SO
much abused, that without being in the least
hypercritical, have long since become pro-
foundly disgusted with it, and infinitely prefer
the sweet, unpretending title of true woman
If we could but sift the chaff from the wheat.
abrogate all the self styled "ladies," there
would be no objecting to the title; but, minis
tiers Of grace defend us from some ladies of the
present day, who do not even know why wo-
man should be so called. A lady must possess
perfect refinement and intelligence. She must
be gracious, affable, and hospitable, without
the slightest degree of fussiness. She must be
Christian, mild, gentle, and charitable unos-
tentatious, and doing good by stealth. She
must pc deaf to scandal and gossip. Her high
sense of honor will forbid her prying into her
husbands secrets searching stealthily hts porte
monnaie and pockets, and breaking open his
letters She must not disdain a kindly nod of
recognition to her servants, seamstress, dress
maker, butcher, baker, or any other employe
she may chance to meet. She must possess dis
crimination. knowledge of human nature, and
tact sufficient to avoid offending ones weak
points, steering wide of all subjects which may
be disagreeable or offensive to any present
She must keep the golden rule uppermost in
her mind. She must look upon personal clean
illness and freshness of attire as next to godli-
ness. Her dress must be in accordance with
her means, never dressy or hashy, but if posi-
bic composed of the best material Abhorring
everything like soiled or faded finery or mock
jewelry, her pure mind and clear conscience
viii cause the foot of time to pass as lightly
over the smooth brow as if she stepped on
flowers and, as she moves with quiet grace
and dignity, all will accord her, mstinctively,
the title of lady. If had time and you pa

How to Raise Early Potatoes

Potatoes, for an early crop, should be a
once planted, but it is question as to what
the very best, and earliest variety. Fox
Seeding, Early June and Mexican, in the or
der here named, have proved with US the mos
desirable the last named being best in quail
ity, but not the very earliest. Warm, sand,
land is also decided requisite to success il
growing early potatoes. He who plants fot
an early crop on clay land, or even level, sand,
muck land, will have only the pleasure Of Ia
king potatoes to market after the time Of OBJ
tanning paying price has passed, for it is only
the very early ones that sell at price to re-
munerate for the labor.
! There are several methods of hasferinr
| their maturity. A favorite method with the
German market gardeners, is to bring the seed
potatoes in barrels into warm room, about
the first of March. The eyes start rapidly,
and in about two or three weeks, they are
ready to plant. Another method, which we
have practiced fer some years, is to start the
potatoes in a gentle hot-bed, about the middle
of March. The tubers are cut in halves, and
laid fat side down upon the bed, as thick as
they can be placed. They are then covered
with about two inches Of garden mold, and
sashes are put over them. AS soon as they
are up two or three inches, they are ready to
transplant. They should be removed carefully,
separating the roots with as little breaking as
possible, and put in the drills where they are
to grow. AS they do not yield full crop uni
der this treatment, they can be planted closer
than in common field culture, say in drills thir-
ty inches apart putting the hills twelve inches
apart in the drill
a warm, sandy loan, sloping to the soath
or southeast, should be selected for this crop
1t should be well manured with horse dung.
about half of it applied in the drills. Some
manure their grounds for early potatoes in the |
Fall, and this is, we think, a good plan, for
that part Of the manure which is applied |
broadcast. Fresh horse-dung in the drills rails
es the temperature of the soil, and hastens
their growth
To the above we will add that we have sue
ceeded well OH a small scale, thus: Two or
three weeks before the time when it will prob
lbly do to plant ont, take pieces or turf or sod
say four or FIVE inches square, and put pota-
10 III each. These are set closely together
where they can be watered as needed and can

The turf itself also acts a. manure to aid

EpucArINa THE HEART.

The following remarks from late number
OF the Lendon Quarterly Review, with refer
ence to educating the head before the heart Is
too full, commend themselves to all who have
the management Of children
1T is the vice Of the nge to substitute learn
Ing for wis1onl-to educate the head and for
get that there Is more important education
necessary for the heart. The reason is culti-
yated at an age when nature does not furnish
the elements necessary to u successful chltita-
tieiI Of it, and the child is solicited to reflection
when he is only sensible of sensation and emo
tion. In infancy the attention and memory
are only excited strongly by things which i'm
press the senses and move the heart, and 3
father will instl more solid and available fh-
struction in an hour spent in the fields, where
wisdom and goodness are exempliied seen and
felt, than in a month spent in the study, where
they are expounped in stereotype aphorisnls.
No physician doubts that precocious chill
dren in fifty crses for one are much worse for
the discipline they have undergone The mind
seems to have been strained and the founda-
tions for insanity are laid. When the studies
of maturer years are stuffed into the child's
head, people do not reflect on the anatomical
fact that the brain of an infant is not the brain
of a man. The first eight or ten years of life
should be devoted mainly to the education of
the heart-to the formation ofprineiples rather
than the requirement of what is usually call
ed knowledge.
Nature herself points out such course for
the emotions are then the hveliest and most
easily moulded, being as yet unalloyed by pas
siou IT il from this sourse the mass of men
are hereafter to draw their sum of happiness or
misery. The actions of the immense majority
are. under all circumstances, determined much
more by feeling than reflections in truth, life
presents an in6ni.y of occasions where it is es-
sential to happiness that we should think pro-
foundIy."

Two lone ships met in greetings, sweet and glee;
