FoRT SUMTER ANEcDoTEs.-Th Edgefel1 6. g.
Advertiser has the following good story
During the heaviest of the fire from Fort Sumter,
as Col. Lamar was looking hastily around upon
some of the batteries, he approached soldier
stolidly stationed by a gun not pointed towards
the fort but located for other purposes. Know
ing the man, who was originally from Edgeted
he said to him " Hello there Lloyd, what in the
thunder are you doing by that gun in the midst of
this fire. Jump in your rat-hole, man-qulck"
But Lloyd, looking askance at the excavation thus
recommended to his attention, slowly replied ::
" Not now, Colonel-the thing might cave in, and
then, you see, some day after the battle, they
would maybe dig me up, and they would be sure
to say Well here's Lloyd Mitchell, he ran away
and buried himself for fear Of Anderson No, sir
ree-they put me by this gun, and mean to stay
right by it, live or die
The Greenville Is. c. Patriot tells this:
When the news of the surrender of Fort Sumter
| reached Greenville, gallant son Of adgeiield
| who, but for personal injury, would nave Deen
at the fight himself, was at this place on visit to
some relation. Full of Joyful enthusiasm on hear

| present and telling the news, he said earnestly

said MIR G., won't you pray?' The minister
replying, proceeded TO devuutly render thanks tol
the victory, and then entrcatcd God for our army

300 exclusive of drivers, and commanded by Major

member of the corps, would, of itself, have been

CLEANING GRANARIEs.-A prudent
farmer will never fill his bins with new
threshed grain, without having first given
them thorough cleansing, In order 10
do this we would recommend using either
of the following modes Having formed a
bed Of sand upon the granary floor, place
the carlhern vessels Of powdered birthstone
upon it. 10 which set fire, after closing the
doors and crcyices, if there be any. This
fumigation, il is said, viii prevent the ex-
istence Of the weeyil or other insects, in tie
grain. Or first, sweep the ceilings, sides
Of the granary, and lastly, the floor. Car
ry out the dust, being sure 10 burn it,
Then wash the interior of the granary with
strong I've, and give The whole good coat

THE PLEASURES OF GARDEN.
ING.

iNAt.
Epicurus passed his life wholly in his
garden there he studied, there he cxer-
cised, there be taught his philosophy and,
indeed, no other sort Of abode seems TO
contribute SO much TO both the tranquility
OF mind, and Incidence of body, which he
made his chief ends The sweetness Of
air, the pleuanlness Of SMELL the yerdure
Of plants, the eleanness and lightness OF
food, the exercise OF working or walking /;
but above all, the exemption from cares
and soliciiude, seem equally TO favor and
improve both contemplation and health,
the enjoyment Of sense and Imagination,
and thereby the quiet and ease both Of the
body and mind.
Though Epicurus be said to have been
the first that had a garden in Athens,
whose citizens before him had theirs in
their villas or farms without the city yet
the use Of gardens seem to have been the
most ancient and most general of any sorts
Of possessions among mankind, and to have
preceded those of corn or cattle, as yield
ing the easier, the pleasanter, and more
natural food As il has been the inclina-
ton of kings and the choice of philosophers,
so il has been the common fayorite Of pub
lie and private men; a pleasure Of the
greatest, and the care Of the mcanest and,
indeed, an employment and possession,
for which no man is too high or too low.
II We believe the Scripture, we must al
low that God Almighty esteemed the life
Of man in a garden the happiest he could
give him, or else he would not have placed
Adam in that Of Eden; that il was the
state of innocence and pleasures and that
the life Of husbandry and cities came after
the fall with guilt and with labor.--.Sir
Walter Temple.

Az Ok WITH A WOODEN LEG.-A
Pennsylvania farmer had the following
misfortune happen to fine working OK.
The animal was grazing near where the
farmer was a, work making a fence. The
OK stepped into a post-hole and broke his
leg. As be was too lean TO kill, the farm
er consulted physician who lived close
by, and the result was that il was deter
mined to cut OF It's leg The OK refused
food one day only after taking off its leg.
A wooden leg was substituted in proper
time, and when this OK was finally killed,
il presented the finest beef seen in the
Philadelphia market
