..GETTING ALONG"

We trudQe on together. my good man aud |,
Our steps growing slow as the years hasten by;
Our children are healthy, our neighbOrs are kind,
And with the world round us we've no fault to End.
Ts true that he sometimes will choose the worst way
For sore feet to walk in, weary, hot day;
But then, my wise husband can scarcely go wrong,
And, somehow or other, we're getting along.
There are soft Summer shadows beneath cur home
trees:
How handsome he looks, sitting there at his easel
We watch the 1Ocks coming, when sunset grows dim,
His thoughts on the cattle, and mine upon him.
The blackbirds and thrushes come chattering near;
love the thieves music, but listen with fear;
He shoots the gay roguesI would pay for their song
We're different, sure; still, we're getting along
He seems not to know what eat drink, or wear;
He's trim and he's hearty, so why should carer
No harsh word from hlm my poor heart ever shocks
I wouldn't mind scolding-sO seldom he talks.
Nh, WELL tits too much we women expectl
lie only has promised to love and protect.
Eee lean my husband, so silent and strong
m sure there's no trouble; we're getting along.
Life isn't so bright II was long ago,
When he visited me. amid tempest and snow.
When he brought me a ribbon, jewel to wear,
But when we are girls, can all laugh and sing
or course growing old, life's different thing;
Ny good man and have forgot our May-song;
Yet, somehow or other, we're getting along.
'Tis true I was rich-I had treasures and land
But, all that he asked, was my heart and my hand;
Though people do say IT, tits what they can't prove
'He married Tor money-she, poor thing, for love"
Ny fortune is his and he saves me its care;
To make his home cheerfuPs enough for my share;
lie seems always happy our broad fields among,
And so we are quietly getting along.
With atocks to look after, Investments TO find,
ips not very strange that Pm seldom in mind;
He can't stop TO see how my times dragging on
And yet, he would miss nae, II | should be gone
Should he be called 6rst, 1 must follow him fast,
For all that's worth living for thea viii be past
But, lll not think of losing him. fretting is wrong,
While we are so pleasantly getting along.

irrigation OH the Grape VInes
The following letter from Col Haraszthy
to the California Farmer. deserves general
attention, as it gives the opinions of gen.
tleman who has full experience of the sub
ject on which he writes:
EPERNAY, France, July 25, 1861.
EDITOR FARMER In your number of
April %, 1861. see an excellent article en-
titled Irrigation an injury to the Grape"
You cannot, my dear sir, too much insist
on this important point 1t is OF universal
experience in France that vines planted in
moist or clay soil, aud irrigated vines, pro.
duce wines which are not only weak aud
void of ascidity, or astriHgence, but which
possess an aguish or watery taste, and are
without favor whatever. This is not only
the experience Of France, but of all wine
making countries of Europe.
What is necessary for the vine is dry
Nnd warm weather, in a rich soil with
frequent cultivation. The vine not only
resists dry weather, but Aourishes in it most
happily. It is nOI then water that we need
for our vineyards, but frequent use of the
plow the rich soil we already possess.
What tends to prove that irrigation in
.lnres the vine is, that during She greatest
heat you will see the Vne.leaves clothed
with the most beautiful green let it but
rain, aud in few days, IN q few hours af.
ter, yOn will see your vineyard spotted
with yellow leaves.
BY irrigation yoa may produce more
wine, but all that you gain in quantity you
lose in quality, aud much more, for your
wine won't keep.
Irrigation may not be the only thing
which spOils the quality of California wines;
1nanuring, comes in also for large part in
this destruction, in spite of the richness of
our coil. a person who has become accus-
toned to q certain habit csanot get rid of
Is without great pains, aud sometimes
even without injury to his health. So it is

Vonlense OF manuring; 1t always cOmmuui-

advise all California vine-growers to
put quick stop to both irrigation and ma
nurlng in their vineyards, for they are the
destroyers of their quality aud reputation.
