CLOVER.

Glover differs entirely from the cereal crops
in this it sends its main roots perpendicularly
downwards, when no obstacle stands in the
way, to depth which the fbrous roots of
wheat and barley fail to reach the principal
roots of clover branch off roots downwards
Thus clover. like the pea plant, derives it's
principal food from layers below the surface
soils and the difference between the two con-
sists mainly in tnis-that the clover, from its
larger and more extensive root surface, can
still find a sufficiency of food in fields where
peas will no longer thrive the natural conse-
quence is, that the subsoil is left proportion
ately much poorer by clover than by the pea.
Glover seed, on account Of its small size, can
furnish from its own mass, but few formative
elements for the young plant, and requires
rich arabic surface for its development but the
plant takes but comparatively little food from
the surface soil. When the roots have pierre
ed through this, the upper parts are soon COW
cred with corky coating, and only the fine
root 6bres rsmfying through the subsoil, con-
vey food to the plant.--Ltebig.

ONE OF NATURES MARvELs.-We quoted
the other day a remark of Col. Daniel Need
ham, to the effect that he knew a sheep breeder
who had reduced his calling to so much Of
science, that he could breed a White sheep, at
will, with but single lock of black wool on
its body and, what is more, could locate the
black lock in any part of the body he chose.
And we inoredulously added that when we
learnt the name of the breeder, we would mem
ton it. We havn't learned the name of the
particular individual referred to but we have
been called on by worthy farmer of Addison
County, who informs US that he has done the
thing himself. That is, he has known four
cases in his own flock in which round black
spot made by dipping a cob in black paint and
pressing it upon the Lack or side of a breed
ing eve at particular time, was reproduced
in the progeny of the eve, the lamb having
distinct black spot, both the skin and the wool
growing on it being colored, in the same part
of its body where the eve was marked.
The result was not sure to follow in every
case but from hundred ewes so marked
lambs similarly marked we're produced in four
cases. So it would seem that the thing can be
done by marking ewes enough at the proper
time, and without any very remarkable display
of science after all. But it is certainly cur
ious instance of the wonderful and mysterious
workings Of the principle Of hereditary trans
mission.-Free Press.

c1BAvELAND.

ng- COmplicity, puzzles; complication,
confounds; intricacy, bewilders. Itis per-
fectly bewildering that the CLEAvELAND's s
should sell SO much Tobacco-the reason
is, they keep large assortment and sell
at very small advance on the cost.
EB- Alarm, attracts the feelings. Terror,
disorders the understanding. Fright, seiz-
es on the senses. Consideration, takes pos
session of the whole soul. The OLEAvE-
LAND Bros sell the best Coal Oil to be had
in the market--will not ignite under 100
degrees +.
GB- You are curious, when you desire
to learn something new. You are iRQuisi-
tiUe, when you set yourself to gain it by
inquiry. The curious and inquisitive will
be astonished at the low prices at CLEAvE-
LANDS Drug Store, where you can ind ev-
erything in their line.
EB- We are GHlaseG at what is incom-
prehensible; we are astOnished at what is
striking in high degree. 1t is amazing
as well as astonishing, how the OLEAvE-
LANDS can sell Coal Oil Lamps as cheap as
they do They have Just received a large
stock-priCes from 4Oc to 81 so each.
Esg- MotiDe, is the word ordinarily used
in speaking of that which determines the
choice, You call it an iaducsmsRs, when it
is attractive in its nature. J. We W. P.
CLEAvELAND, at their Drug Store, are offer
ing great Inducements to customers to pur
chase from them, Their mctiDe, in doing
SO, is to build up a big trade. Call and
examine their stock Of Perfumery. Fancy
Goods, Brushes, Combs and Toilet arti-
cles.
tg- You speak ofA thing as accidental,
when it falls 20 you as by chance. You
call thing Incidental, when it falls, as it
were, into some regular course Of things,
but is secondary, and forms no essential
part thereof; for instance, this was,an ac-
cidentdl meeting, or would Incidentally re-
mark that the CLEAvELAED's have got a
large stock Of Pocket Knives, suitable for
men, women or children--all prices, sizes,
and kinds.
Ey- We publish what we give openly to
the world either by oral communication
tr by means Of the press, as TO publish
abroad the fact that we have large stock
Of Smoking Pipes at low prices
We announce what we declare BY antic
ipation or make known for the first time
As, TO announce that we will receive l0,
600 moreof those famous cent Henry Clay
Cigars, the last Of this week.

that we have the largest stock of Smoking

The following has been sent us
with request for its publication:

OUR LITTLE HARRY.
Nv gentle Harry's gone to rest,
He's left this dreary globe;
He's gone to dwell with God in heaven
And wear the spotless robe.
He was the sunbeam Of our home,
Our life, our hope, our joy,
And only one short year has past,
Since God gave us our boy.
We loved our darling-yes, | know
We loved him far too well;
and SO God took him home to heaven,
Forever there to dwell.
He plumed his wings and flew away
To that dear heavenly lace.
Where ali the children Of the Lord
Behold His smiling face.
Help me, 0 God, to watch and pray,
That when thou callest me,
may rejoice to leave this world,
And with my darry be-
1t gives me Joy wilene'er think
That he is safe at home,
And free from sickness, sin and pain,
And death can never come.
God did not blast this gentle bud,
But planted it more fair.
Within the garden Of the Lord,
To bloom forever there.
That happy day will surely come,
On Canaan's happy shore
I'll clasp my Harry in my arms,
And part with him no more
My other two, 0 God, bless them,
And take them home above,
Where all is peace and happiness,
And pure and perfect love-
MY husband, too, hope to meet
When this dark journeys DER
In realms Of light beyond the tomb,
Where joys are ever more.
MARTHA A. CoNowAY.

they have got a job of polishing
silver ware, these or other burglars
belonging to the gang have returned
two or three weeks later and robbed
the house.
