Anecdote OF the 1sOet yViIIis-'''TOO
Much Pork for an Shilling

DR.. Mcfarland, of the Illinois Insane
Asylum, communicates the following to
the jacksonville (lllinOis) JOuRdl:
"The death of n p. Willis, the poet al
lows the origin of the ancient saying. at the
head of this communication to be explained.
"When Willis was lad of fifteen he was
sent to receive his preparatory collegiate
education at the hands of the father OF
your correspondent, Rev. DR.. M, OF
c., New Hampshire, in whose family he
took up his residence, and under whose in
siraction both his morals and his classical
Pltainments were expected to derive great
advantages. He is remembered by the
writer as boy particularly fast for those
primitive times, wearing roundabout
jacket, and having round, good-hum0red
face, handsomely set off by prolusion OF
light brown, curly hair in which It is well
known he took great pride, even into ad-
Vanced life. On the 4th fully, 1872, a fish
ing party was formed TO celebrate the day
in a manner peculiar to anglers on the
banks of the adjacent Merrimac, and Ma
thanel had permission to join the party
the careful doctor having first learned
that the provision chest was to contain
only salt pork, which was to be cooked
with the fish.
But as is apt to be the case on such oc-
casions, certain cordials-such as AnniS,
NOydu and Others now equally out OF date
found their way to the scene of their fes-
tivities, in the pockets of the older ang-
lers; and Nathaniel, before night, was de-
cidedly the worse, from frequent libations,
on which he had expended the best part of
the "pistareen" given him by the doctor
in the morning. He found his way home,
and in the twilight reached his bedroom
undiscovered. But his retching soon
brought the hired girl to his bedside, who,
in her alarm, ran to the "study" for the
doctor, who shortly appeared, to find his
pupil bent over the side of the bed in the
extreme gastric agony.
"Why. Nathniel," exclaimed the grieved
doctor, "where hare you been? What hare
you been doing9 Have you spent all your
shilling?"
'Please. SIR" gasped the agonized re-
pentant, lit was the pork! l ate, and ate,
till my stomach is ready to bust. Indeed,
sir, | never knew so much pork to 90 be-
fore for shiling!"
The saying soon became current that Nat.
Willis got too much pork for his shilling.

Sewing Oats i'm February.

A correspondent of the American Farmer,
living in Baltimore county, Maryland, re-
ports having tried an experiment of sow
ing oats in February. He had prepared in
the autumn of 1865 small strip OF tolera-
bly, rich clay loan, having an easterly eX-
pOsure, and on the last snow in February
he sowed it down in oats. At the same
time the land was top dressed at the rate of
Twenty-Five horse cart-lOads of barn-yard
compost per acre. For the process of COW
ering the seed and manure, he relied upon
the honeycomb state of the land. aided by
the melting snow and spring rains. The
seed germs started vigorously and promis-
ed success, and when the plants were suili-
centy grown and the land dry. he passed
a common drag harrow over it, followed by
the roller. He plowed, manured and man
aged three acres in similar manner, and
sOwed the oats about the tenth OF the fol-
lowing April. The oats sown in February
produced Il heavier crop, greater weight OF
grain and straw, and was ready for the
scythe upwards of two weeks earlier than
that sown in April. He says clover and
other grass seeds may be sown in Febru
ary, at the same time of seeding the oats.
This is a striking and useful experiment
and should be fully tested. 1t is well
known that there is great advantage in the
earliest possible sowing of this crop con-
sistent with its safety, and which the prepa-
ration of the ground will allow. II further
trials shall show similar results, a great
improvement may be made on our common
practice. 1t will greatly favor too the
clover seed, if it can be sown thus early on
land prepared in the fall. 1t may be too
late with many farmers to try the expert
ment on fall-plowed ground, but it would
be a good idea TO try it upon ground pre-
pared during this month or early next. We
hope some of our Tennessee farmers will
give the experiment such a trial.

HaIfPrice.

A playful Hibernian, just arrived in Lon

blanket at a shop door with this inscrip-
tion on it: "This superior blanket for half
price," Pat walked in and demanded the
price. "Just five shillings," replied the
smooth and polished shopkeeper. by my
sowl, an that's chape eaough !" and so,
folding the blanket up, and putting it un-
der his arm, he laid down two shillings and
sixpence, aud was walking off. The shop
keeper Intercepted him, and demanded the
other two shillings and sixpence. "An'
didn't you say, you spalpeen, that the
price of the blanket was five shillings, an
sure, haven't given you the half BY
this and that, 1 won't give up my bargain" !"
A scuffle ensued, and Pat was taken to

TO THE PUBLIC.

HAVING NOTICED AN ARTICLE IN
IL the papers over the signature Of Ad lphus
Lotze, stating that it was not the Furnace of his
manufacture that set fire to the Third Presbyterian
Church on Seventh street, below Linn, recently,
but the one manufa ,tured by MIR. NJ, in justice to
Mr.. Martin, we would ate that the FIRE did net
originate from any defect of his Furnace, but from
other causes. Two years since we removed one Of
Mr.. Lotzes Furnaces and put one Of Mr. Martins in
the place of it, which has been in constant use and
gives entire satisfaction. We can cheeriully rec
ommend it to the public.

The Distillation of Gram.

We publish in another column "Gencra
Orders, No. 25," issued by Gen. SIcKLEs,
which prohibits, by the most direct and op-
pressive form, tho distillation Of grain into
spirituous liquors. In times Of dcstitution
and great suffering, as now exist in this State
such action may be defended, as just and hu-
mano; nevertheless, this order, with the exc
cntion Of the internal revenue laws, are ex-
tremely burdensome and oppressive to the
people of this section.
This order makes the possession of still
presumptivc evidence of guilt. Ordinarily,
this would be Il hardship; but, since tho ia
nous raid of Capt. ARNIM, very few stills can
be found in this region. And those left be-
hind, we imagine, will be rather difficult to
locate
