Wool Carding.
To the Farmers OF ,seiss County

AO Gue dHf"etS Oh NECESS c0untys
WE again call your attention to the fact
w that we are prepared to execute all Or
ders for CARDING or GRINDING, at our Mill,
near the Courthouse in Pomeroy.
The reports we have from our work of last
year fully confirms us in the belief that it has
given general satisfaction in quantity and
quality of rolls, proportioned to the cleanli-
ness, quantity and quality of Wool. This fact,
together with the necessity of the most rigid
economy, in view of the great and pressing
wants of our Government, which must be sus-
tanned in this her hour of greatest peril, at any
and all sacrifices; and also the scarcity and
high price of cotton, and the uncertainty of fl-
ture supplies, induces US to believe that large
amount of Wool will be worked up the coming
season; and have therefore Repared ourselves
accordingly, by putting our machines in the
best of order, and securing the services of Mr.
DAVID JENKINS, former owner of the mill
and the best Carder in the county.
While we thank you for past favors, permit
US to admonish every one who procure a
pound of Wool, to bring it to u.s. well cleansed
(using as little soap as possible,) with one
pound of clean grease to every lbs of Wool, SC
that we can grease it ourselves, just before
working, and we will insure good work.
Terms, CASH, or CORN and OATS, at cash
prices, when delivered. II. B. SMITH,

4 Cat Story.
A philosophical old gentleman was
one day passing new school house,
erected somewhat toward the setting sun
borders of the Unioa, when his attention
was suddenly attracted to crowd of
persons gathered around the door. He
inquired of boy whom he met, what
was going on?
"Well, nothin' 'cept the skule com
mittee."
"a committee meets to-day. What
for?'
"Well," continued the boy, "you see
Bill, that's our biggest boy, got mad at
the teacher, and SO he went all round
and gathered dead cats. Nothin' but
cats, and cats, and cats!'
"Pshaw! what have the cats to do with
the meeting of the committee?'
"Well, yeu see Bill kept on bringing
cats, and cats; alters pilin' them up yon-
der" pointing to huge pile as large
in ext mt as pyramid, and considerably
aromatic, "and he piled them. Nothin'
but cats, and cats!''
Never mind, my son, what has the
committee met for?'
'Then Bill got sick haulin' 'em, and
every body got sick nosin' EN-, but Bill
got madder, and didn't give it up, but
kept pilin' up the cats, and
"Can you tell me what the committee
are holding meeting for7''
''Why, the skule committee are goin
to hold meetin' to see whether they'll
move the skule house or the cats''
The old gentleman evaporated.

STARTING IN A HoT-BED.

STARTING IN A HoT-BED.
This cane bears transplanting very
we'll, and for several reasons it is often
best to start the seed in hot bed and
then transplant to the field row. With
large planters who are short of help,
this would be thought imrracticable,
but for small lots and where the help
could be had it would be of advantage
in getting an early start for the cane,
and while the cane was growing in the
hot-bed, the field could be under treat
ment for the destruction of the first
growth of weeds, as we'll as for getting
it in fine tilth.
CULTIVATION.
Keep the surface mellow about the
plants; keep out weeds and thin out or
fill up by transplanting, as need may
require. When the plants take deci-
ded upward growth, turn light furrow
towards the rows, which will check
suckers and form good base for the
crown of the roots. Let all after cult
vation be shallow and often; so as not
to break up the roots, while it keeps the
surface free of crust and weeds.
These are few hints of what has
been learned of the progress of Sorghum
culture; if any person knows better
way, let them tell it out.

What is Conscience.

Wendell Phillips in his late eulogy
upon Theodore Parker said: The very
last page those busy fingers ever wrote,
tells the child's story, than which he
says, no event in my life has made so
deep and lasting an impression on me.
A little boy in peticoats, in my fourth
year, my father sent me from the field
home. A spotted tortois in shallow
water, and at the foot rhodora caught
his sight, and he lifted his stick to
strike it, when voice said, it is wrong.
[ stood with the uplifted stick in
wonder at the new emotion, till rhodora
and tortoise vanquished from my sight.
| fastened home and asked my mother
what it was that told me thatit was wrong.
Wiping tear with her apron, and ta-
king me in her arms, she said: Some men
call it conscience; but prefer to call it
the voice of God in the soul of man. If
you listen to it and obey it, then it will
speak clearer and clearer and always
guide you right. But if you turn a
deaf ear or disobey, then it will fade
out, little by little, and leave you in the
dark, without a guide.

Discipline.
Steuben, perhaps, next to Washing
ton, contributed the most to the achieve
ment of American Independence. He
came to this country, where he found
men, brave indeed, but badly drilled
and hardly organized at all; and work
ing night and day he made them steady,
sciid, disciplined troops. Our army of
the Potomac has been rigidly instructed
in this frs. and great lesson of war, ev-
cry day since Tie Manassas affair. Our
officers and men ans four times better
soldiers than they they we're then, aud
patient delay is nothing lost.

lacks for power.
