superphosphate af lime. aud will not cost
half SO much. 1t has been tried two
years, and is good on dry land:
Take one cask of lime and slack it
with water, and then stir in it one bushel
of fine salt, and then mix in loan or ashes
enough, SO that it will not become mortar
it will make aboye FIVE barrels. Put half
pint in a hill at planting. All manqres
containing potash are particularly suitable
for the potato. I'd 4 t.f
Ashes contain more than any other ma

To Cure WARTS ON HoRsEs. Henry
R. Tyron, in the Rural New Yorker, tells
us how he cured large wart on a horse
belonging to him:
1.-TWO years ago I bought large Clyde
colt which had wart as large as q mans
fist on the hind leg, just below the stiHe
joint. The following remedy 1 procured
from an English horse-farrier, which not
only removed the wart, but left the surface
smooth, and it haired over l purchased
two ounce vial of butter of anthony,
and applied it with feather tied to the
end of long stick three times a day, un-
til satisfied that the roots of the wart were
dead, (this can be determined by discon-
tinuing the application for week; if the
wart starts to grow apply more). After 1
had thoroughly burned it out in this way,
l applied the following to heal it over {:
One pint rum, one half-pint soft water, one
onnce aloes, one-fourth ounce myrrh pull
verize the aloes mix and wash l ap-
piled this wash three times a day, and it
healed over smooth and nice. Now have
given gratis remedy which if procured of
the horse-farrier would have cost you IS

often been inscribed upon coins One Of
the most remarkable is on i copper coin
issued by the papal government, on which
are the words, Vac uobis diritibus-"W Woe

were first issued by the United States, Mr..
Chase, then Secretary of the Treasury
consulted, among others, the President Of
one of the Philadelphia banks in regard
to placing some motto upon them-such,
for example, as has been impressed upon
the five cent pieces" In God we trust"
After mentioning several scriptural texts
that had occurred to him, the Secretary
asked our bankers opinion. " Perhaps, -

His solemn state renews

And, rising and falling, his winds are calling,
Like hunter through his horn. ....--
No thrifty sower, but just a mower 79f'I

Like sunset after the sun.
And while fair weather and frosts together
Color the woods so gay, .fl 4.lE .i q.
We must remember that chill December
Has turned his steps this way.
And say, as we gather in the house together,
