Julia was just my age, and very pretty.
1t Is "a very hard thing to say, but hon-

personal appearance had been described

foil to her beauty. and to reside in the
family that l might assist in taking care
of the chilereu. At any rate, when
came, the single servant was discharged.
The family lived elegantly ; but I

striciest economy. My aunt worked hard

Extra attention was given to the house

wealthy for short time when first mar

had saved few things which gave the
house an air OF means and styIe-some
articles of fine table. silver, and some
handsome oil paintings, I remember.
''With my assistance she served the
dinner herself, and managed to be richly
dressed to appear at the table. She
looked cool and stately; but 1, who had
fingered until the last moment in the
kitchen, making gravies, and serving up
vegetables, was SO tired that I could
hardly speak [ never did talk much,
though, so it was not noticed apparently.
MIR. Marshall conversed of books, pictures,
and music, all OF which Julia was ac-
quainteb with, and it was agreeable to
listen to them. 1 was sorry when the
meal was finished.
s'Mr. Marshall turned to look at the
pictures on the wall when he arose, and
after few moments, my aunt commenced
clearing the table. The dishes were put
through slide in the cupboard into the
kitchen. Julia stood looking out Of the
window.

TRIALS OF EDIToRs.-We make the
following extract from an address recent
ly delivered before the ssIowa Press As
sociation," on this subject:
In speaking of the revenue of the press,
| can not refrain from expressing my
views on the subject of free advertis-
ments. There is always to be found in
every considerable community a set of
creatures who imagine by some dispensa-
ton they ought not, like other mortals,
to pay for what they receive. Editors
have extraordinary facilities for making
their acquaintance, and are kindly per-
mitted to contribute gifts to their sup
port. In what other branch of business
would this be tolerated ? Allowing that
one has put the press under some obliga-
ton, does he not generally expect to get
back more than the worth of his servi-
ces
IF a man does an editor favor Of re-
markable value, let him have his remun-
Grafton in cash. On the other hand,
require him to pay for what the paper
he's done for him. It is as reasonable to
expect the carpenter to shingle your
house and the tailor to make your clothes
without charge, as to ask the editor to
prepare and publish matter for your ben
eft without compensation. Lengthy
obituaries, marriages ornamented with
extracts from all the poets, and lengthy
puffs of corner lots or Improvements,
come under this class of advertisements.
This custom Of gratuitous notices and
advertisements, from any quarter, ought
to cease, for the reason that it would be
. benefit to the printers pockets, and
would in some degree abate an almost
intolerable nuisance. The printers path
has more thorns than roses and there
is no Law, human or divine, that should
oblige him to shoulder the burdens of
those who are too lazy or stingy to take
care of themselves. People will come to

There is trembling along the whole line Of
carriers, commission men and warehouse men,

by the flank movement Of the shippers down the

The result is likely to be general back down

and storage, under which the country has groan.
ed for the last five years. New York herself is
becoming alarmed at the prospect of losing the
great grain trade Of the continent, and the rail-
way kings have their heads together to devise
means to avert the calamity. Boards Of Trade
are IN active canvass of the matter, and ware
housemenN are busy eontroverting charges Of
gram mixing, and excessive storage fatea.L ~
It is certain that talk will no longer suffice.
There must be immediate and vigorous action or
the effort will be too late. St. Louis and New
Orleans are no mean bidders fur the grain trade
OF the northwest, and with the whole army of
producers to laud them and the free waters Of the
Mississippi to aid them, are bound to put the
much needed check to the mammoth monopolies
that are growing fat at the peoples expense.
Z The dsily newspapers of Chicago, jealous of
the welfare of their noble city, and Of the inter-
ests that sustain it, are sounding the notes Of
alarm, and figuring up deductions that must in.

Rejuvenating Old Horses.

If horse has been reduced by over
driving, hard treatment and a stlnted al
lowance of feed, 50 that he has become
poor, dispirited and hidebound, 1t Will be
an easy task, in most instances, to restore
him to good condition by adopting a ju-
dicious course of feeding. In the first
place, provide spacious box STALL IN
which he can turn around without doao-
ling his neck and body together: Ii he
can have the advantage of yard during
the day, all the better. He may be re-
quired to labor every day, if he be han
died carefully. Gentle driving and the
right kind of feeding will be one of the
best means employed to develop muscle
and put on the flesh. Every day the horse
should have at least four quarts OF carrots
or turnips, or roots of some kind, IN addl-
ton to three liberal feelings OF cut-feed
and meal. Meal composed OF one part
oats, one Of rye Or wheat, and third part
of Indian corn, viii make excellent feed
for such a purpose. A quart OF oil meal,
mingled with the grain, will be an I'M
proYement in the feed. Compelling 3
horse to eat too much straw with the meal
will be very detrimental The better way

How to Saw Valuable Timber.

ALL tough timber, when the logs are
being sawed into lumber of any kind Kind;
whether scantling, boards or planks, will
spring badly when log is sawed in the
usual manner, by commencing on one side
and working toward the other. In order
to avoid this, it is only necessary to saw
off slab or plank, alternately, from each
side, finishing in the middle of the log.
We will suppose, for example, that log
of tough timber is to be sawed into scans-
ling Of a uniform SIZE Let the saving be
done by working from one side of the
log toward the other, and the end OF the
scantling will all be Of the desired size,
while at the middle some of them will
measure one inch broader than at the ends.
After the log has been spotted, saw off a
slab from one side; then move the log
over and cut similar slab from the oppo-
site side. Let calculations be made by
measuring before the second slab is cut
off, so that there will be just as May cuts,
no more and no less, allowing for the kerf
of every cut. If the log is to be cut into
three-inch scantling, for example, saw q
