GARDENING FOR WoMEN.-Tlere is no
than to have the care of a garden-a flower
pot, if nothing more. What is pleasanter
than to spend a portion of every passing
day in working among plants and watching
the growth of shrubs and trees and plants,
and to observe the opening of flowers from
week to week as the season advancesP Then
how much it adds to the enjoyments to
know that your own hands have planted
and titled them, and have pruned and
trained them. This is pleasure that re-
quires reither great riches, nor profound
knowledge. The humble cottage of the la
may be adorned with pet plants, which, in
due time, become radiant with beauty, thus
ministering to the love of the beautiful in
nature. The wife or daughter that loves
home, and would seek ever to make it the
best place for husband and brother, is will
ing to forego some gossiping morning calls,
for the sake of having leisure for the Guilt
walton of plants and shrubs and flowers |
The good housewife is early among her |
plants and flowers as is the husband at his
place of business. They are both utilitari- |
ans, the one it may be in the abstract, and
the other in the concrete, each as essential
to the enjoyment of the other, as are the !
real and ideal in human life. The lowest
utilitarianism would labor only for the meat
that perisheth. Those of higher and more
noble views, would labor with no less assid-
uity for the substantial things of life, but
would in addition seek also with diligence
those things which elevate and refine the
mind and exalt the soul.-Southern Rurasist.

crop prospects on TenR Isee River

Captain Allen Duncan.

PERRY COUNTY. Tenn ,Nov. 0. lsss.
Editors Journal: 8t1 Ell ~ Fla1II5
The material prospects of this Sec
ton of the country are far in excess
of what they have been for several
years past, and. in fact, old citizens
inform US of larger product of cot
ton and corn than has been known
for many years. The yield of the lat
ter staple will be very large. every
portion of the country onfand ada
cent to the river having considerable
surplus over home demand. The cal-
tivation of pea nuts is becoming more
general every year, and the day is not
far distant when it win be.
come a more important crop
for market than either corn or
cotton: As an instance of their
prottableness, we knew a man Who
cultivated three acres in peanuts. ana
the yield was three. hundred hnsh.
els, which he sold at 81 IL ner
bushel, making his three acres ratnrn
him three hundred and forty-five dol
lars. You can see from this that
most any man with any industry can
obtain sufficient to enable him tn
purchase all necessities and many
Iuxuries on very small area of land.
and you can also form an idea of how
1t will enhance and augment the
trade and importance of the Tennes-
see River. q s
Your city seems to be steadily in
creaslng her dominion over the trade
OF this river, thereby causing much
tT1buiation and anguish of spirit
among the merchants of Louisville.

Locking Un Greenhncks.

You have observed this expression
frequently of late in the New York
papers. 1t alludes. TO the last species
of sharp practice In Wall Street. If
spectators can make q tight money
market, tho price of railway shares
declines, and having sold short in
advance, they reap the benefit of the
fall. Though there are several modes
of locking up money, the following is
the one practiced here. 1t was resort
ed to for the first time two years ago,
and has since been successfully tried
twice. Say, for example, several
capitalists or speculators club their
railway stock together to the amount
of 10000 This stock is taken to
some bank, say the Fourth National,
and given as collateral security for a.
million of greenbacks; they then pro-
ceed to another Institution aud bor-
row at per cent interest one million
more of greenbacks, giving the first
million as security. The security can
not be used by the bank, and is thus
locked up with the second million of
dollars; this obtained, the clique pro-
ceed to another bank. and In the same
manner lock up2another million of
dollars. They continue this game
until they have locked up Sixs. eight,
or ten millions of dollars. In the
meanwhile thoy have sold large
amounts of stock, and when the fall
comes they jump in and cover, and
realize hundreds of thousands of dol
lars. "A scheme of this character has
materially aided in causing the tight
money market which the street has
just experienced. = ~. Y. Letter,
N0U. 4th. st.alAas' -s*1
