HEART coMroRTER.

Is there more exquisit pleasure in this
world of ours than is found in giving COM
foTtto the sad2 For this is a world of sor-
row; vale Of tears And be who can 60 to
the wounded heart with words of consolation
has power and mission that angles might
envy.
There is 20 pleasure more exquisite in this
work Of ours, than is found in the assurance
that every sheet that goes from our hands
may carry words of peace to the troubled
joy to the mourncr, and hope to the despair
ing.
We meet with a gem OF holy verse, or a
happy thought OF some warm-hearted author,
or a striking incident in the experience Of
another, or a simple anecdote that has a bless
ing in it, we seize it and set it here, and think
of it on its rounds of mercy, lighting up
this cottage, warming this breast, making a
smile of gladness on this cheek, and drying up
tears in these eyes; and so going onward over
the whole land upon its errand of blessing.
There is great power in words; in words
ftly spoken. 1t is a great gift to be able to
speak with such tenderness, or with such pow
er as to be minister of good to the poor
and the weary, and the suffering. 1t is joy
to ihe proud man to be able to lead, and rule
and overcome, but there is no joy in this
world greater than TO know we arc doing
good TO those who are in need of good. To
be heart comforter, in a world of wounded
hearts, is privilege to reconcile a man to
thousand ills, and make him willing to be
anything for the sake ofhim who wept at the
grave of u friend and restored him to loving
sisters.-N, Y. Obserrer

PAY You CAN.

Make no excuses if you have the ability
but pay your debts. Every man whom you
owe now needs his money. In better times
he might borrow if be cid not get his dues
but now he must collect or go under himself
BY refusing 10 pay you wrong many. for the
same money rays many debts. Keep ii III
motion. Don't say you will not sell your
crops because prices are low. IF you owe no
thing do as you please, but if you owe a debt
which onght 10 be paid, and will not DO ii
because you want higher prices, you are moi
an honest man. No man deserves the title o
honest who can pay and won't. All the mer-
chants and other dealers now need the mon
ey due them ten times more than ever before.
The sum you owe them may be small but il
will help to make up larger sum aud so will
pay large debt. We say then pay if you
can, and be willing TO make all needful sacri
fees to do so. Pay the merchant. Pay thu
mechanic. Pay the doctor and the lawyer, i
you have been unlucky enough TO have any
thing TO do with them. Pay the printer
Pay every body who las just claim. Thel
sweet will be your sleep, sound your digestion
ard you may hope for happy hereafter.

EARLY INFLUENCES.

There can be no greater blessing than TO be
born in the light and air of a cheerful and
loving home. It not only iusures happy
chidhocd-if there be health and good
constitutiou-but it also makes sure virtu-
ous and happy manhood, and fresh youpg
heart in old age. l think il every parents
duty to try 10 make their childrens childhood
full of love aud ehildhoed's proper Joyous
ness; and 1 never see children destitute Of
them through tie poverty, faulty tempers or
wrong notions of their Parents, without q
heart ache. Net that all appliances which
wealth can tuy are necessary TO the free ans
happy unfolding of childhood in body, mind
and heart-quite otherwise, God be thanked
but children must at least have love inside
the house, ard fresh air and coed play
and some good conpanionship outside
--Other wise young life runs the great
est danger in the world of wiIherirg, OF grow
ing stuuted, or sour and wrong, or at bes
prematurely old, and turned inward on itself

SMILES.

"A beautiful smile, says popular writer,
is to the female eountenaLce what the sun
beam is TO the landscape. 1t embellishes an
inferior face, and redeems an ugly one. A
smile, however, should not become habitual,
or insipidity is the result; nor should the
mouth break into a smile on one SIDE the 9TH
er remaining passive and unmoved, for this
imparts an air Of deceit and grotesqueness to
the face. A disagreeable smile distorts the
lines Of beauty, and is more Tepulsive than a
frown. There are many kinds of smiles; each
have distinctive character-some announce
goodness and sweetness, others betray sar-
casm; some soften the countenance by their
languishing tenderness, and others brighten
by their brilliancy ard vivacity. Gazing and
poring before a mirror cannot aid in acquiring
beautiful smiles half so well as to turn the
gaze inward, to watch that the heart keeps
unsullied from The reflections of evil, and is
iAumined and beautifed by all sweet
thoughts"

tried all sorts Of heave powders on my
patient, with DO effect whatever. 1t is said
that in a limestone county this disease is un-
known, and lime water was prescribed with no
apparent advantage. Some one told me to
give the horse ginger, and strange to tell,
found that tablespoonful given to the "Gen-
eral' with bis oats, would cure him for the
day, in half an hour after he had eaten it; but
on giving it daily the effect soon ceased. It is
Jockeys remedy, and will last long enough
to swamp upon. Finally, was advised to cut
my horses fodder and give it always wet.
pursued this course carefully, keeping the
General tied with SO short halter that be
could not eat his beddingf giving him chopped
hay three times day, and never more than a
bucket Of water at time.
He improved rapidly. have kept fimfTe
years, making him .fdetottem-carriage horse,
saddle horse, plow and cart horse-and he
bids fair to remain useful for five years to
come. Kept in this way, his disease does not
lessen his value for speed or labor single dol
lar. When the boys grow careless, and give
him dry hay, he informs me Of it in a few
days by the peculiar cough; but sometimes, for
six months together no indications of disease
are visible. and he would pass for a sound
horse with the most knowing in such matters.

Berry Wines.

6sETy wines.
First in season is the Strawberry, which
makes delicious wine of very fine aroma
then come Blackberries, Ras pberries and Cur
rants, and later i'll the season Elderberries, all
excellent materials for the purpose.
The process is much the same for making
all berry wines the usual receipt being equal
parts OF juice and water aud three pounds of
sugar to the gallon for currants, many peo-
pie prescribe double the quantity of water,
and this for ladies' wine is strong enough.
\ good way to express the juice of soft
berries is to put them in keg having the up
per head cut and holes in the bottom to let
out the juice lay clean straw in the bottom
of the keg, then put in the mass of fruit and
with wooden follower press out the free
juice, then wet the pdmmice with lukewarm
soft water and press again, and SO on, until
you have pressed through as much water as
juice.
Having the juice and other materials all
ready and mixed, strain as free of pulp as pos
si5le and Put it in casks to fcrment, keeping
the casks full by the addition of warm water,
till fermentation ceases, when they should be
closed tight with bung. Let this stand
over winter then draw off clear and put in
bottles or in clear casks, and seal tight.
The incest way to conduct u fermentation
of choice berries is 10 put in the buug Of the
cask two inches long, bore half inch hole
half way through the length of the 5ung, and
bore the rest of the way with a gimet then
take half inch lead pipe, bend it in form of
a syphon, insert the long end in the hole of
the bung and make it air tight with putty Or
close fitting; Gil tumbIer or cup with water
and set it under the shorter end of the bended
pipe so the end will be well under water In
this way the gus Of fermentation will escape
in bubbles through the water, and no external
air can vitiate the wine within. In five or
six weeks the fermentation will cease, and the
cask can be bunged up tight. Let the wine
stand upon the lees, in cool dry cellar, and
you will have right royal beverage. When
wanted for use, the wine should be drawn off
at once, bottled or kegged, and sealed as fire.
quent drawings from the stock will introduce
air and damage the flavor of the wine.-FieId

How Virginians sufFer-What They Think
and Say.

and Say.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Inquirer, writing from the army before
Richmond, says:
What little wheat there has been
left standing by the srmy is now be-
ing reaped, whichjust about here, is
all the agricultural labor that appears
to be progressing. Corn and pota-
toes, although extensively planted,
and now developing themselves luxu-
riantly, are not receiving any atten-
ton; and, unless there should be
forward movement directly, prospects
of those who depend upon this seasons
crops for maintenance, and the ma
iority do, the coming fall and winter
forebodes suffering, and in some in
stance, real famine.
| I have taken occasion to converse
with some of the best informed and
influential men in this vicinity, an1
they heartily bewail the position of
Virginia in the present contest, hear
tily agreeing with me that it is mad
ness for the South to carry the affair
any further. Destruction is already
upon them, and the gaunt wolf isnear
their threshold. - @
The Mr. Hogan referred to above,
[ may mention as an evidence that l
have personally inspected. of the com
plete destruction Of many influential
men in this State. He could have
sold his plantation, and what is gen
eraly reckoned as belonging to it, /
am told by "a resident here, for at least
lS75,000 one year since. Every day
that passed along certain road, /
meet him, and he told me yesterday
that himself and his family had been
staying at a house in the neighbor-
hood, actually penniless Except Con-
federate notes. and not knowing what
he is to do for his family and his ne
groes, who are now temporarily hous-
os nearby, and living on hard crackers
1t is pitiable thing to contemplate.
And vet how is it to be remedied?- =
Almost every day deserters come over,
and it has got to be SO frequent that
the rebels are devising some scheme
to prevent it. Yesterday morning
three came in, all being of Northern
birth, and anxious to get back under
the folds of the Union flag. To day
four more arrived.

Beautiful is old age, beautiful as the slow
dropping mellow autumn of rich gloriou
summer. In the old man nature has fulfilled
her works; she loads him with the fruits OF a
well spent life; surrounded By his children,
she rocks him away softly TO the grave, to
which he is followed by blessings. There is
another life, hard, rough and thorny, trodden
with bleeding feet and aching brow, a battle
which no peace follows this side of the grave
grasped before the victory is won; and strange
that it should be-thiS is the highest lie CT

history; there is noue whose life is better than

Rich Rehe1 Confessions.

Two letters, one from Commissioner Judge
Rest to rebel Secretary Hunter, and the
other from Captain Huse to Major Gorges of
the rebel War Department, have reached the
authorities at Washington, instead of those at
Richmond, and Lave betn published. They
are curious and important. Judge Rost ac-
knowledges that there is no use for his stay
ing in Europe. The conversation lie held
with the Spanish Minister at Madrid, of
which he gives full report, showed him that
Spain would not act without England and
France, and be was obliged TO confess to his
CastiIlian questioner that those powers had
no faith in the Cenfederacy. After he had
made long talk about the incfectiveness of
the blockade, he was shrewdly asked why his
Government did not send him out authentic
news of events in the South. To this Rost
made unsatisfactory replies, for he could not
without admitting that it was next to impos-
sible for advices toreach him. Captain Huses
letter shows that he could buy arms enough

Strong Characters.

Strength of character consists OF two thing
power and will, and power of self-restraints
1t requires two things, therefore, for its ex-
istenee-strong feelings, and strong command
over them. Now it is here we make a great
mistake: we mistake strong feelings for strong
character. A man who bears all before him,
before whose frown domestics termble, and
whose bursts OF fury make the children of the
household quake--b because he has his viii obey
ed, aud his own way in all things, we call
him strong man. The truth is that is the
weak man, it is his passions that are strong;
he, mastered by them, is weak. You must
measure the strength of man by the power
of the feelings he subdues, not by the power
of those which subdue him. And hence, COM
posure is very often the highest result of
strength. He who with strong passions re-
mains chaste: he who, keenly sensitive, with
manly power of Indignation in him can be
rebuked, and yet restrain himself and forgive
these are strong men, spirited hcroes.-RcU.

Government, and the sum awarded is paid to
the heirs of the deceased. If the pensioner
was married, the wife receives the money. II
no wife is living, then the children. If the
deceased soldier was not married, the parents
receive the pensions, which cease with the life
Of the parents. If the nearest living relatives
are brothers or sisters, dependent upon the
soldiers for support, the pension will be award
ed to them.

Currant Wine.

Some weeks ago we received two
samples of currant wine of different
years, from T. P. Wallace, ESQ, of
Marion, with a request to have it tes-
ted and report. Just about that time
our better and larger half needed a
spring recruiting, so we turned over
the favors of fliend Wallace to her
use; and though she is not given to
such indalgcnces, yet she says this
wine went right to the spot. We al
so subjected it to the ordeal Of our
discriminating palate, and found it
the purest and finest of any we have
sampled of that sort. Mr.. Wallace
kindly furnished rs the recipe, which
we commend to all currant wine ma.
kcrs as producing a genuine article oi
ladies wine:
To one quart of currant juice add
two quarts of water and two and a
half pounds of coffee sugar, to the
gallon. Let it work in the cask, and
bottle at six Field Notes.
