SWAPPING BADIEs.-Last week strange
woman with an infant in her arms, entered
Q house in Boston and asked leave to stay
awhile, as she was weak aud tired. The
lady Of the house went to get glass Of ale
for the S ranger and ou relur ming found that
her own infant, which she had left asleep
in the cradle, had been taken away by
her visitor and negro baby left in its
stead. Nothing has been heard Of the
woman since, aud the affair creates great
excitement among the interested parties -
Exchange.
Too bad , How could any woman 50
far forget herself as to leave q Niger baby
in a white family in Boston And yet it
is all rigAt. Boston is theiheaven for mig
gers. Massachusetts is the elysium for
the dear cherubs. A niger baby is not
so bad after all. Boston would swap the
Goddess of Liberty of for thick Tipped
wench and OF course it would be glad to
change white babies foy black ones! Tie
true, 'tis pity, and pity It's It's true. Let
the mig. bah be cared for. Name him af
ter Beast Butler, Potash Anna or SumDer'
who went to France to have his back bone
seraped down instead OF sire ngthened up
Teach il to follow the example of Butler,
Sumner and Anna Diekinson--build ito
cradle in Fanneul Hall kiss it for te moth
er and tell the traitors all around you
that a child is given unto Boston! We
should not wonder if Massachusetts, should
by aw seek to make out that it is OF di-
vine origin, aud worship its advent as the
coming OF Messiah! God bless the little
niger baby! Let it be adopted in the place
of the boat load of poor white girls sent
off to the Pacific. Wsddle il aud swad-
, die it for great is Massachusetts, and the
: niger Is its proPhes.

"Fetch Cara's child to me, Ralph"
she said sweetly; "I shall pray for grace
to be mother to it all the days of my
life. No don't thank ne / am lonely
here sometimes, and the little one will be
the greatest blessing 10 me in the world"
So little blue-eyed fair-hsired baby
came to brighten Leah Kirke's sombre
home where for twenty years. no baby
laugh had ever sounded. A little living
treasure, that brought the old bright smies
back to Leah's dark face, and the old
happy look with her grave dark eyes. A
new Leah, who grew up as fast as the
years rolled on, into the lovelicst little
rosebud the sun ever shone on, with far
more than her mothers beauty. Of the
lrail young woman she never heard Leah
never heard either but by-and-by, when
she was initiated into tho mysteries OF pot
hooks and hangers, s,she read and answered
the letters her father sent letters that
came from the .far-of shores Of Spanish
America, where the father she had never
seen was diligently making a fortune for
her.
They sat together, these two Leahs, 10
the old porch, watching the summer sun
set. The calm years had changed Leah
Hirke very little, only the brown, Tranquil
face was far sweeter than it had ever been
in her careless girlbood. Leah Gordon,
eight years old, and lovely as a vision in
white and bIue, leaned against her knee
and looked wistfully at the radiant sky,
"When will papa come home, mamma
Leah p she asked. "He is always cay,
ing he is coming,but be never does come.
Even as she spoke tho garden-gatt
opened and a man walked up tho little
path. A man bronzed aud bearded, apt
stouter than of old, with silver threads il
his hair and Grape on his hat. A mai
not seen for eight long years, sunburne
and changed, but at sight of whom Lea
Kirke rose to her feet with a cry.

There was long pause. The old man
sitting with his hands clasped on the head

To PRESERVE EGGs-The best method
] know Of to preserve eggs, saysa correspou-
dent of an exchange; is to fill the pores of
the shell with fresh clean lard, so as to exclude
all air 1t is my opinion that thissimpIe and
easy method Is preferable to any now in use.
Some put them inlimewatcr, some lay them
down IN salt. some put them in sawdust.
But the lime cooks them, so they have a
dried appearance salt has similar effect
while eggs saturated with lard, as far as
my experience goes, open fresh and nice.

Sons.-Lime is applicable to every clay
soil, every peaty soil, sandy or thin soil,
When applied to the latter, manure should
accompany It. Lime viii renew many ex-
hausted soils, if properly applied.
The nice adaptation of manures to the pc
culiar wants ofevery crop, is a point in farm
economy too universally neglected. There
should be more system and research by prac-
tical farmers. To double the crops on most
farms, about all that is necessary is for our
agriculturists to sell of one half their land
and with the proceeds buy manure for the
other half The larger the farm the less a
man grows to the acre Farmers should al
ways plow deep; the roots viii strike deeper
into the soil and thus obtain more nourish-
ment, and win stand the draught much bet
ter the ground can afterwards be tflledmuch
deeper, thus enabling the moisture from dews
and fogs to- penetrate to the roots of plants
in times Of draught.

APPLIoAroN.-The preferable way of ap-
plying lime, according to my experience, is on
wheat stubble, as the lime gives the grass
power to absorb ammonia from the atmos-
phere, and retains that, which is disengaged
BY the decomposition of vegetable matter
in the soil. From thirty to sixty bushels per
acre, once IN six years should be applied
Thirty bushels is about equal to one ton.
Good effects have resulted from its appli-
. cation ON wheat and corn. When thus ap-
Piled, it may be spread before pIowing, but
better afterwards, and thoroughly narrowed
In. 1t should never be combined with ma
nure, unless thewhole is Immediately plowed
In.
Indications of want of lime in the soil, may
be seen In heavy crops of straw, and light
crops of grain; and in root crops, where they
seem to run to fingers and seed.
