FARM LrFE.-No occupation can be
more favorable to the cultivation of those
qualities which are the charm of domestic
circles, than the life of farmer. He is
much more at home than is possible with
any other man. How many are there in
our cities who only see their families at
evening on the Sabbath. They live
for their business, and this, from its loca-
ton, takes them from homo early and late
How many, from the same cause, torsako
housekeeping and huddlo into boarding
houses anu hotels, whcro the charm and
beauty of the family, as God constituted
it. is entirely lost; and children fall under
thousand unfriondly influences that
would never touch them at homo. With
the best arrangements wealth could COM
mand in the city, it is we'll nigh impossi-
bic to keep the children under the infu-
ence of their parents. SO that they shall
have distinct character, and bear the
moral as they do the physical image of
their progenitors. Parental influence is
dissipated amid the varied social infu-
encs to which they arc subjected from
their earliest days.
Nincty-ninc failures in hundred
among most business mon in the city, tell
tale of the perplexitics and sorrow, the
corroding cares and anguish of mercantile
life. How can q father, goadod with
these anxiotios, from the bogining to tho
end of the year, do justice to his cildrcn,
even if his business allowed him to be
with them q part of the time? Ho is
not in frame of mind to superintend
their education, to perform q fathers
office.
The farm preserves the family in its in
tegrity. The homo has in it that charm
ing world, and that moro charming thing
the fire-side, around which parents and
children gather, and where the bright and
cheerful blaze of tho hearth is buta type Of
the famo of love that glows in cvory
heart. The parents have been drawn to-
gether not by sordid motives Of woalth
or the ambitious desire of social display,
but by tho personal qualities seen in each
other The glory of tho frcsido to the
husband, is that the wife is there; and to
the wife, that he is thore who is the head
of tho woman, and the bond of that home
circle. Here they gather at morning, and
at evening and at noon. Their board is
almost always surrounded with the same
circlo, and here thoy spend tho long win
ter's evening together.

GEN P. II. NELsoN.-Tho Sumter cor
respondent of tho Charleston Courier fur
nishcs the following interesting item in
regard to the fate of this gallant officer:
Con- P. II. Nelson went from this Dis

struggle, and when last seen was at the
head of his command in battle near Pc
torsburg. After the fight, q diligont
search was made on the field, but he was
not found among the dead or wounded

was not prisoner, and for long time
his family were in painful suspense as to
his fate. His remains have at length
been found among tho debris with which
they were covered, and have recently

It was grand day in the old chivalric time tn
vino circlcd round the board in noble hall, an'
the sculptured walls rang with sentiment and song
The lady Of each knights heart was pledged alou'
by namc, and many syllable significant of love
incss had been uttered, until it came TO St. Leon
urn, when, lifting tho sparkling cup on high,

"Whoso image never may depart,
Deep craven ON this grateful heart
- Till memory is dead;
..To ono whose love for me shall last
When lighter passions long have passed,
So holy tits and true;
To one whose love hath longer dwelt
More deeply fixed, more keenly felt,
Than any pledged to you"
Each guest upstarted at the word,
And laid hand upon his sword,
With furry flashing eye;
And Stanley said: '.We crave the name,
Proud knight, of this most peerless dame,
Whose love you count SO high"
st. Leon paused, as if he would
Not breathe her name in careless mood
Thus lightly to another;
Then bent his noble head as though
To give that word the reverence due,
And gently said: "NIy mother!"

VALUABLE TO FARMEns.-The leaves of
the alder, if strewn among corn or other
grain when it is put into the bin, will eff.
tectually preserve it from the ravages of
fhe weevil. The juice will also kill bed
bugs and maggots. Insects never touch
alder bushes. The leaves of the alder
scattered over cabbages, cucumbers and
other plants subject to the ravages of in
sects, will effectually shield them. The
plum and other fruits may bo saved by
placing in the branches and among them,

SINGULAR DREAM.-Thc Detroit Iri-
b,ue relates that q citizen Of Branch
county, Michigan, lately hirod two mon
to remove the remains of his deceased
wife, which they pretended to do, and re-
ccived five dollars therefor. The next
night the gentleman. who had not the
least suspicion of the truth, dreamed that
one of the mon came into his room naked
and covered with black spots, which he
said on being questioned, indicated tho
lies he had told, and the large one on his
side the lie ho had told him in regard to
disintcrring tho woman's remains, which
they had not done. The gentleman was
SO much impressed by the dream that he
investigated tho matter the next day,
when he found the men had not removed
his wife's remains, and had them arrested
for fraud

A GOOD story in Paris is told at the ex-
dense of q very handsome and rich widow
| of most exemplary character, who has q
small and elegant retreat at Versailles in
addition to her town residence:
At this pretty rurality she was passing
week at the close of the autumn, hav-
ing for her guest boy in his teens, who
was distant relative, and who was thus
passing his vacation from school. Mad
ANS house keeper and cook, was re-
spectacle female, who, however, had an
admirer, trumpeter stationed in the
barracks near by, and the stolen pleasure
Of whom, was to come in and dine Stealth
ly on the remaining dishes of the mis-
tress' luxuriant table
Madam and the boy relative having
started after dinner for walk, tho trump
peter took advantage of their absence,
but unluckily prolonged his meal little
too long. In his hurry toconccal himself
whom taken by surprise, be became cscon-
seed under the bed of tho lady, thinking
to escape while she passed the evening in
her drawing room, as usual. Madam
was tired with her walk, however, and
proceeded to retro for tho night immedi-
atcly on her return.
The trumpcter, in full uniform, with his
brazen instrument beside him, was, OF
course, in position Of considerable dis
may. AS he lay racking his brain, the
door suddenly opened and in walked the
schoolboy, who, to the astonishment of
the lady, fell on his knees, and made o
tumultuous declaration of his love.
"In the name of heaven" cried the
astonished object of bis passion, "rise and
leave the room Immediately What
would bo thought of me if you were secn
in this indicreot situation and posture p
Rise this moment and retire"
"Nor firmly persisted the acadcmi-
cal: "I live but to love youl Nopower
on earth shall tear mo from this spot-no
-no-not even if tho trump of tho last
day -
At this moment the trumpeter, whose
lips wcrc at tho odge Of his instrument,
blew blast into which was poured the
overwhelming torrent of his previous i'm
patience. T7rrrr ta ia ia la thunder
blast, to which the walls Of the little cot
tage trembled to their Foundation.
The room was vacated by dame and
lover in trice, and the trumpoter made
his escape; but tho story got wind, and,
without namc or place, was told all over
Paris
1t was being narrated one evening by
gay man, in small circle, when the
narrator remarked:
al would havo given anything in tho
world to have seen tho face Of tho lady
at the moment OF the trumpet's sound
ing"
q The face of the boy on his knees was
much better worth seeing, l assure you"
exclaimed in tone Of pique, lady

ing, by this hasty comment, thatshe was,
herself, the heroine Of the story.

Love is as necessary to womans
heart as fashionable bonnet to her head.
Indeed, we think, rather moro so; for
nothing less than large measure will
content her; whereas the recent fashion
has shown that she can be satisfied with
o very little bonnet.
A Scotchman went to lawyer once
for advice, and detailed the circumstances
of the case. "Have you told me she facts
precisely as they, occurred 2" said the law
yer 80, ay, sir" rejoined he, 81 thought
It best to tell ye the truth; you can put
the lies into it yourself!'
= Of all other views man may, in
time, grow tired; but in the countenanco
of women there is variety which sets
WEAKNESS at defiance. "The divine right
of beauty" says Junius, s'is the only di-
vine right man can acknowledge, and q
pretty woman the only tyrant he is not
authorized to resist"
= An Ohio stumper, while making q
speech, paused in tho midst of it, ard ex-
claimed: "Now, gentlemen, what do
you think" Instantly man rose in the
assembly, and, with ono eye partially
closed, modestl ly replied: ri think, sir,
I do, indeed, sir, / think if you and 1
were to stump the country together, we
would tell more lies than any other two
men in the country, sir, and I'd not say a
word myself during the whole time, sir"

The UMBRELLA IN FRANcE.-A Paris
letter-writer gives Il humorous descrip-
ton of how the umbrella was introduced
into France. He says:
The war drove SO many Southern fam
lilies abroad they formed a large sized col
ony here, and when they raised their um-
brellas to keep off the sunbeams they
kept one another in countcnance. The
other foreigners here seeing so many UNI
brelas raised on sunny days, thought,
naturally enough, it was Partisan Gus
tom and conformed to it. The Parisians,
in turn, seeing so many umbrellas raised,
wero persuaded it was new fashion, and
conformod 10 it. They found it comfor-
table and persuaded their friends to adopt
it. In this way the firing on Fort Sum
ter has made the Parisians adopt the
Southern fashion of using umbrellas to
keep off the sunbcams as we'll as the
cloud-drops.
