BAD COMPANY.

One of the worst habits that. a
person of either sex can fall into, is
that of keeping bad company /; i'm
pure words stain the. tablet of a
virtous mind; and the more we hear
of them the less nicer becomes our
sense of the refined and pure. Too
much care in the choice of compan-
ions can not be taken. Intimate
friendship should not be made with
out due reflection and casual ac-
quaintances. whose conduct and con-
versation will not benefit us, we
should have as few of as charity and
circumstances will admit. T h e
mind is an Exceedingly delicate sub
stance, and its purity is soiled by
even the slightest contact with vice;
and when the leprous spots are left
upon it, no after regrets can wash
them out. they become a part of the
individual. An hour spent in bad
company may prove a source of re
gret for years; or, worse, the step
ping stone to vice or crime. t--
It is a mark of great folly for a
man to leave his home and fireside,
and go into his neighbor's to spend
his leisure hours; for his family have
as muchnee of his social powers
as his neighbor; and if in pecuniary
matters he were to adopt the same
course of conduct, giving all to his
neighbor and keeping nothing for
his family, he would soon become a
bankrupt.

LrvrNGs AND MEANS.

The world is full of people who
can't imagine why they don't prosper
ike their neighbors when the real
obstacle is not In banks or tariffs, in
bad public policy or hard times, but
in their own extravaganza and heed
less ostentation. The young clerk
marries and takes a house which he
proceeds to furnish twice as expen-
sive as he can afford and then, his
wife, instead of taking hold to earn
a livelihood by doing her own work,
must have hired servant to help
spend his limited earnings. Ten
years afterwards you viii find him
struggling under a load of debts
and children, wondering why luck
was always against him, while his
friends regret his destitution and f.
inability. Had they, from
the first, been frank and honest, he
would not have been so unlucky.-
Single men hired out in the coun-
try at ten or fifteen dollars per
month, who contrive to dissolve a
years earnings in frolics and fine
clothes /; the clerk who has five hun
dred dollars a year, and melts fifty
ofit into liquor and cigars, are par
alleled by heyoung merchant who
fills a house with costly furniture,
gives dinners and drives fast horse,
on the strength of the profits he ex-
poets to realize when his goods are
sold and his notes all Daid. Let a
man have a genius for spending,
and it matters not whether. his
income be dollar a day or a dollar
a minute, it is equally certain to
prev6 inadequate. The man who,
being single, does not lay up some
thing during his first year of indie
pendent exertion, will be pretty apt
to wear a poor mans hair into his
grave. tae . 1882

KnexYiIls Before the War.

This-is thedoldest city in the State, having
been laid of about the year 1893, and named
IN honor Of General Knox, the then Secretary
of War. KHOxVille is beautifully situated on
several high bluffs on the north bank of the
Holsten River, four miles Oelow its confluence
with the French Broad River
The city was well supplied with handsome
store-hOuses, hotels and ma6y tasteful private
residences, while among its public edi6ces,
the State Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb
was especially worthy of note. The Univer-
sity Of East Tennessee, foHhded in 1907,
more remarka bic for its beautiful location
than architectural elegance, stood on an emf.
nencel which commands an extensive view. in
every direction. UPto the commencement of
thelrebellion, the evidence of the eity's pros

Orchard and Nursery.

The open season will probably al
low of early work in this depart
ment. Send orders to the nursery
men as soon as a selection can be
made. This is likely to be a busy
month in the nursery, and the nur
serymen should be prepared with
everything that will facilitate his
Springs business.
o APPLE TREss.-Scrape the trunks
of old trees, and wash with strong
solution of soft soap or weak ley
Plant early. The list of varieties
determined by the fruit growers
meeting will be too late for this
month, but will appear in April
There are certain standard sorts
that are good everywhere, and 9TH
ers have been proved by your neigh
bors. Plant largely of the best
market varieties and fewer of the
fancy sorts for home use.
GRAFTrNG.-This may be done
with cherries. Other fruits should
be left till next month. Root graft
ing, if not already finished, should
be completed. If the cutting of
scions has been neglected until now,
attend to it at once, and keep them
in the earth or sand until wanted,
tINsECTs. mo trees should be sent
from the nursery or planted, that
are covered with scales. The moths
of some destructive worms ascend
the trunks during thepresent month.
Paper smeared with tar mixed with
oil enough to keep it soft, and tied
around the trees, will arrest a great
MANURE.-Ground for planting
should be prepared with well decom-
posed manure. The practice of
surface manuring fruit trees is grow
ing in favor. The soluble portions
are carried down by rains, and the
coarse material is left as mulch.
PRUNING should this month be
confined to removing dead limbs and
small shoots and suckers.
If necessary to make a large wound,
