A VIGIL.

| am sitting up alone with the corpse
of the only man ever loved. lie lies
so still, SO awful still, that the bloody
uniform, the rigid head, with The calm,
determined features, the still hands
one pressed over his heart where the
note had been-all are so terrifying to
me. The note, soaked through with a
drop OF blood, that summoned me to
this lonely vigil, reads:
81 wish Annette to sit up with my
dead body, and read Southey's Thalaba.
She will care for Eyeleen.
HENRY PARKHILL"
1t was strange request. Evelecn
was his wife and my sister-my darling,
beautiful young sister, just two years a
wife and now a widow. Did coming
death make him wiser? Did he then
for the first time know that 1 had once
loved him? Or was his mind leaving
him? They said his last words were,
"Annette. Annette
And yet he had always been de-
voted husband to Eva. She was young
nd beautiful, and every one had said,
when they were married, that it was "a
pure love match.' These last words,
"Annette, Annette" set me dreaming
strangely. I have stirred the fire
brightly, that it may make no ghostly
shadows, and reached down my port
folio, and am writing to keep up my
courage. l have turned my back on
the corpse. l loved him as only wo-
man can who loves but once 1t is all

| looked at him from every point of
view; how my whole soul wrapped
around and around him how my heart
was never alone, but always had him
to think about and to Groom over how
| laughed at him and loved him how
he suited me in my gay moods, and
how the thought of him grasped and
shook me in my earnest moods. He
was all to me- This dead man was once
all that the world contained for me

thought then that be loved me.
His eyes haunted me, his thoughts and
attentions were always mine, until one
evening he gave me this same Thalaba.
Then his manner changed He was
fitful, sometimes cold and constrained,
and then as suddenly his eyes and tones
would change to melting tenderness.
He asked me if 1 had read it, and 1 an.
swered hastily and casually. eyes. -
1t was falsehood l had intended to
read it, but the strange alteration in bis
manner had 80 puzzled me that when
was alone I could do nothing but think
over it. Il TT E II
When I had answered eyes," his
gray eyes gave clear, searching look
and his deep voice seemed to tremble
with eagerness as he said, "And what
do you think ?" I was surprised and
answered, "Why, you are wasting q

"Will he return, do you think'?" Most

THE NoBLEMAN OF EARTH

The truest nobleman of earth,
Is he who loves to be
The first companion of the good,
The hero of the free,
Who works undaunted for the poor,
Who seeks no rank in names;
Whose hopes ascend to heaven in crowds
As sparks fly up from flames.
Give me that nobleman of mind, 7.s-a
Who loves noble cause; ,-
The right of labor's sturdy sons,
And freedoms righteous laws!
The hater of each evil scheme
A tyrant may advance
A giants strength about his heart,
Thoughts brilliant in his glance
love the nobleman of earth,
Who strives to bless the age;
And leaves glory that is caught
On history's faithful page
Whose name the millions love to lisp,
Truths sure unfinching guest
Who shines in love as does the sun
In palace of the West!
He's deathless as the mighty skies,
When jeweled through with stars;
Could feel Gods beauty in blaze
Burst through his prison bars!
No mandate from the tyrant breaks
His spirits upward bound;
While high on every liberal creed
His name is blazoned round
And perjured kings may pass from earth
Their pomp and lustre fade. 'af
But natures nobleman unclasps
The cruel laws they've made.
His worshipped monarch is his God
He leaves name behind,
Flushed with refulgence that reflects
His majesty of mind.

With her eyes SO sparkling bright,
And her skin SO lily white,

All, she is our only darling

All her ways are witty, a
When she sings her little ditty,
Every word is just as pretty
AS can be.
Not another in the city
Sweet as she.
You don't think so-you ne'er saw her !;

See her with her playthings clattering.
Hear her little tongue chattering,
Little dancing feet come pattering,
Think you would f
Love her just as we'll as do, t

Flies ON Horses and Cattle.

Cresylic acid black bar soap. for washing
horses, cows, pigs, dogs, &c, to rid OF and
protect them from vermin, flies, &c, IS IN a
convenient and cheap form. Flies, which
so necessarily torment horses and cattle IN
stables and dairies, will not disturb them,
if washed over twice week with this soap.
Use it like any other bar soap but leave
light lather to dry when rubbing it well in.
4 farmer in this neighborhood used it last
summer on his oxen, having it applied twice
a week, on their going to work. His cattle
gained in flesh during fly time. | have used
1t on horses and cows. Its benefit is imme-
diately observable. a horse, uneasy, fret
ting and stamping, becomes, after the appll-
cation, at once quiet Those who sympa'
thize with the noble animals in the constant
teasing endured by them from these pests,
will be glad to use any harmless remedy
which will spare inccssant work when not
called to labor in harness. Horses will keep
better on less supply of food for the re-
pose thus obtained. Cows will give better
and more milk from the rest that they will
get from this mixture. One OF my horses
was severely cut inside the leg, near the
stiae, where it could not be bandagcd. The
flies kept the wound continually lrritated by
their OWL bites, and causing the horse to nip
at them. | applied some of the bar soap,
and the irritaats kept at II respectful dis
lance, and the cut soon healed. The wood
fly being a blood thirsty and determined lit
tie pest in our shady drives and in the fields
tried putting the soap on the ears and
neck of horses, with entire success, and now
have the pleasure of seeing them return
whence they came, with no blood to answer
for. Dogs ears often become raw and sore
from the bites of the house fly; here again
bar soap preserves their peace and beauty.
A very little applied, answers for a drive.

Strawberries, Raspberries, sc.

This and next month are the best time OF
the year for making new plantations of straw
berries. Plant none but varieties of estab-
lished reputation in your nelghborhood,
except for the purpose of trial. Where fine,
strong plants are to be had, if taken up very
carefully with earth attached, and well
planted and cared for, a good crop may be
expected from them next Spring-a full
crop, however, not till the following year.
OF course such care can be taken only with
a very small planting.
RAsppERRlEs.-All old wood should be
taken out and not more than four or five
canes of the new left.
NEWLY TRANsrLANTED TREES. These
should be well looked to through this month
If it be dry, keep sufficient muck about
them, to the distance of four feet from the
tree in all directions. For grape vines
strawberries, &C., an occasional watering Of
soap suds will prove beneficial.

Kill the Weeds.

There is no better month in which TO kill
the Canada thistle, as we'll as weeds gen~r
ally. and the destruction of bushes than
August II is also peculiarly time when
farmers are not so much hurried, and when
the weeds have fully developed themselves.
The farmer can see at glance, indeed has
seen all the season, the necessity of com
mencing the work of destruction.
The best thing to be done with weeds of
all kinds extirpated from the land, is to
gather them in large heaps to remain there
until dry, and then burn them up g root and
branch" The practice ofsome farmers who
look only to their own selfish purposes, who
live for themselves and to themselves, and
rarely have neighbor with whom they are
on friendly terms, is to pull up and throw
into the public highway the weeds from their
fields. There they are left to ripen their
seed, and the first heavy shower of rain that
comes, they are carried away, sometimes
for miles, either into the lands of some
other farmer, or into a stream, to be landed
along the banks for a great distance. We
have more than once seen people calling
themselves farmers and Christians engaged
