Cucumber. and souanhcs.

We have fully described, on former
occasions, the mode which we have
adopted to protect melons, squashes and
cucum bers from the "bugs"-consisting
of bending osiers or other slender twigs
in the form of bows over the hills, so as
to support sheets Of paper laid upon
them. These boYD may cross each other
in different directions so as to make a
convex support, something like the top
of an umbrella Small stones or earth
laid on the edges of the paper, hold it
down, prevent the wind from blow
ing it off, and exclude insects. The pa.
per has the additional advantage of
keeping the earth moist, and retaining
warmth, while no attention is required
until the plants by their growth begin
to burst through their covering. These
covers cost about nothing, and are put
on with only few seconds work for
each hill.
There is another important advantage
in this covering; the enclosed air be-
comes warm, and the protected plants
grow ttcO or three times as fast as those &c
posed to the air. They are also protected
from night frosts.

had made little trade with peddler th
day before and that we wished to settl
with him.
Got cheated, | warrant" said tb,
bluff old man ; " but no such man cam,
to this house yesterday. | do recollec
now that black Joe, my hostler, said h,
thought fellow with big black bundl,
came up the bank from the creek just af
ter the stage passed but | didn't pay an,

My father gave up all hope at once
but I could not believe my fortune wa.
gone. Father tried to comfort me by
saying | was just as well off as before, and
had new dress in the bargain. How
hated the site of my beautiful mcrino just
at that time.
Well, it is no use to prolong my story,
or tell you of all the efforts made to catch
the adroit thief. He was no peddler, but
a clerk in that very law office from which
the letter was sent telling us of the dia-
monds; and he managed to delay the let
ter some days, fastened away himself, and
only arrived the very same day with the
letter, the same mail-coach bringing both
to our town. The woman who had given
the pin to my mother to keep for me was
not aware of its value it had been given
to her by poor, foolish youth, who had
taken it up from his mothers dressing
table because it was bright, and he gave
it to the first person he CHANGED to meet ;
and she, thinking it only bright little
toy, given to amuse him, accepted it, and
brought it with her to America.
For years the parents of the poor imbe-
cile had sought in vain for the precious
pin, offering great reward for its discov-
cry. By mere accident, they learned that
lady, stopping at the same hotel in New
York with my godmother, had heard her
speak of the child she had called Mabel,
because she had owned pin with that
name on it. This clue was followed up
by sharp detectives, the jewels traced, but
too late to recover them.

Selma looked at the much-loved ring.
but did not answer.
Aunt Mabel smiled then taking Sell
ma S hald, SAID: Take my lesson, child;
you are rich now-more so than many
who possess jewels of value; and after all
| do not pow regret the trade made with
the mock peddler, for when I did gain
courage to make and wear my crimson
dress, it was very boeoming and the good
man who afterwards became my husband,
being bit of an artist, was struck by the
blending of its rich colors with my dark
brown curls, and often told me that he
valued that dress for calling his attention
to me more than the jewels l had given
for it, And SO was not so very poor
after ALL"
