with the notice, this affair came of on Wednss-
day. The Company, under commanded Gaptain
Bell, and large number of men from other
Companies left town in wagons: early in the
morning, With colors flying and band playing. for
the Pic Me grounds near Long Cresk, on the
Augusts. road. ,On1 arriving, the wagons were
met BY . large essemblage, composed Of the old
and young, male and female population Of Union
and adjoining Townships, most of whom had
sons, brothers and husbands among the volun
tsers--in alb about i've hundred persons were
present After's period Of rest and sooiability,
oil the volunteers present, were formed in line
BY tie Captain and marched on each side Of .
long table, ct apart especially for the volunteers,
loaded with everything thss coald tsmpt the. ap-

Two other tables equally well supplied were soon
filed by the rest Of the ssssmblags-after which
Nr. Gsarhsart, in the name Of the young ladies
Of Union township, presented Capt. Bell = mag.
ni6cent Cake. appropriately surnoanted BY :
miniature fsg, inscribed with bis name, and made
BY Miss Nary Peterman. The Captain made .
few remarks, thanking the young ladies for their
good will 80 generously expressed, after which,
. blessing having been invoked, the order was
given to "fall to-" which Was done with will.
Dinner, being concluded, the Music Of the
Band called the crowd together, to listen to .
patriotic address from J. Tracy, Esq, which Vas
met with frequent and hearty applause. The
speaker then sang the Star spangled Banner, the
audience joining in the chorus. A pleasant 90
cial time then elsued, the volunteers seeming %
enjoy themselves With zest, heightened BY the
near prospect Of leaving home and friends to
engage il the war for the safety Of the Union. {,
Before leaving for, the city, the volunteers
were again called together to partake Of = barrel
Of Cider, made on that day, BY Aessrs. Jacob
Elliot and Jack Brown, and presented by them
to the volunteers. The soldiers did Justice to
Cider by transferring il, in double quick time,
from the barrel to their stomachs. Soon after
the volunteers left with three loud and hearty
cheers for Union Township, men, women and
children. '5a
The remembrance Of the Pic Mic, Of Wednes-
day will long remain green in the memories Of

Kitty's Choice.

wealthy old farmer was Absalom Lee,
He had but one daughter, the mischIeyous
Kitty;
SO fair and SO good and SO gentle was She,
That lovers came wooing from ccuntry and city
The first and the boldest to ask for her hand
Was trinity dressed dandy who worshippcd
her "tn;"
sho replied with smile she could well under
stand
That sAe'a marry noape for the take Of his skin.
Tho next was n merchant from business retired
Rich, equity, and gruf, prcsuming old sinner
Young Kt.y's fair form aud sweet face he nd
mired,
And thought to himself 4 can easily win her.
So he showed her his palucc, and made blul
bow,
And said she might live there; but wickcdly
then,
Kitty told him she long ago made rash vow,
Not to marry bear for tie sake Of las den.'
miser came next lie was fearless and bold
In claiming his right to Miss Kittys affection
Could pay fora cabin to give her protection.
Half vexed at his boldness, but calm in trice,
She curteseyed, and thanked him, and blush
ingy Then,
Dcmurely repeated her sage aunts advice,
Not to marry hog for the sake Of hepen.'
The next was a farmer, young, hashful, and shy
He feared the bold wooers who came from
the city,
But the blush on his check and the light in hi
eye
Soon kndied 4 fame in the bosom Of KITTY.
My life will be ono Of hard labor he said;
But, darling, come share with ne if you can
I suppose, she replied, gaiiy tossing her head
u must marry tie farm far the sake Of III
man.

The Long Ago.

m a ,v,nderfnl stream Is the river Time,
Ash, rms through the realm of tears;
win f,ultless rythm and musical rhyme
Ana a broader sweep, and n surge sublime,
And blends with the ocean of years
How the winters are drifting like flakes Of snow
And the summers like birds between;
And the year in its sheaf, so they come and go
On the rivers breast with its ebb and flow,
As Il glides in the shadow and sheen,
There's a magical isle mp the river Time.
Where the softest of airs are playing,
There's cloudless sky, and tropical cline,
Aud u song as sweet as avesper chime,
And the Junes with the roses are staying
And the name Of that isle Is the Long ago
Aud we bury our treasures there.
There are brows ofbeauty and bosoms OF snow,
There are heaps ofdust--but zee }orcd hen' so :
There are uinkets, and tresses Of hair.
There are fragments ofsongs that nobody sings
And a part Of an infants prayer
There's n lute unstrung and harp without
strings,
There are broken vows and pieces Of rings
And the garments She used to wear.
There are hands which arc waved when the
fairy shore
BY the mirage Is lifted in air,
Aud We sometimes hear through the turbuIen
roar
Sweet voices we heard in days gone before,
when the wind down the river is fair.
Oh! remembered for aye he the blessed isle,
Al the day Of life till night
When then the evening comes with its heaut!'

Cattle and Crops.

In writing and speaking Of the lessons
Of English agriculture, we have always
placed in the foremost rank the fact, so
clearly shown throughout it, whole his
tory, that the live stock Of the farm la,
there increased with tho increase of it,
cereal c,ops--or, rather, that one reason
Why English Farmers produce more
grain than we do, and upon far smaller
surface, is because they keep more stock
and devote a far larger surface to the
growth Of crops exclusively for their
stock.
r. however, this is interpreted to mean
thai our farmers ought u keep more
sheen, aud cattle OIL their farms, whether
they grow hay aud roots enough to feed
them on or not, ii is very bad ndyicc.
The first lesson which the good farming
&C England, or any other country, inva-
riably teaches, is that whatever is under
taken, pays best, in the long run, when
j, is done thoroughly ard we'll. We can
ubisin more, and better, manure for our
crops, from few animals well fed and
attended to, than from larger number
that are just kept alive, and mainly left
to take care of themselves. If we can
save a year in the faitening OF sheep,
or pig, or bullock, by more food and b, +
ter care, we are saving ourselves twelve
months keep, and turning over our
money twelve months sooner, and can
derive greater profit by every step
which tends to lessen the time of feed
ing, even it, in order to do so. we consid-
erably diminish the number we feed.
An excellent article on raising lambs
for butchers, from the pen Of Mr.. Tay.
lor, Of New Jersey, affords striking in.
stance in point. He shows from his
own experience that be Logan by at.
tempting too much that be kept reduc-
ing bis number of sheep, and adding 10
the profits they yielded him, for several
years in succession, and without any ex-
cepticn to The advantages that resulted.
-Cut short your losses Lu, let your pro-
fits run on" is an old business rule very
applicable on the farm. Animals which
are kept so as not to be gaining from day
