A Touching story.

A Touching story.
The Hon. A. H. Stephens, Of Georgia, ina
recent address, at meeting at Alexander,
for the benefit of the Orphan Asylum and
Free School Of that city, related the fol-
lowing anecdote -
A poor little boy on cold night, with
no home or root to shelter his head, no
fraternal or maternal guardian or guide to
protect or direct him on his way, reached
at nightfall the home of a wealthy planter,
Who took him in, fed and lodged him, anc
sent him on his way with his blessing.
These kind attentions cheered his heart
and inspired him with fresh courage to
battle with the obstacles of life. Years
rolled round Providence led him on, and
he reached the legal profession his host
had died +; the cormorants that prey on the
substance of man had formed conspiracy
to get from the widow her estates. She
sent for the nearest counsel to commit her
cause to him, and that counsel proved to
be the orphan boy long before welcomed
and entertained by her deceased husband.
The stimulus of warm and tenacious
gratitude was now added to the ordinary
motive connected with the profession. He
undertook her cause with q will not easy
to be resisted he gained It; the widows
estates were secured to her in perpetuity,' -
and MIR. Stephens added, with an empha-
sis of emotion that sent an electric thrill
throughout the house, shat boy stands
before yon."

Every community is cursed by the pre-
sence of class of people who make it
their business to attend to everybody's bs-
siness but their own. Such people are the
meanest specimens of depraved humanity
which an all-wiseP Providence permits to exist
on this cursed earth. It is well kAown
that almost every person is sometimes dis
posed to speak evil Of others and tattlirg
is sin from which very few can claim to
be entirely exempt. But the object Of our
present article is to speak of that distinct
class Of tattleis who make tale>bearing the
constant business of their lives. They pry
into the private affairs of every family in
the neighbourhooa, they know the exact
state of one neighbours feeling toward
another /; they understand everybody's
faults, and no little blunder or misdemean-
or ever escapes their vigilant watchfu'ness.
They are particularly well posted upon
everything connected with courtship and
matrimony, know who are going to marry
whom, and can guess the exact time when
it will take place. They watch every
movement of parties suspected of matri-
monial intentions, and if there is the
slightest chance to create disturbance,
excite jealousy, or ''break up" match,
they take immediate advantage of it, and
do all in their power to keep people in a
constant state of vexation. They glide
quietly from gentleman to lady, from mo-
ther to daughter, from father to son, and
at the same time pretend to be the most
sincere friends of those they talk to. Their
black aud nauseous pills of malicious
slander are sugar-coated with smiles and
honeyed words of friendship.
Tsttlers are confined to no particular
class of society. They belong to all class
es, and operate in all. We find them the
rich and the poor-"upper ten' and the
slower Million" in the church and out of
it. They are people who have no higher
ambition than to be well informed in re-
gard to other peoples private business, to
retail scandal to their neighbors, and exult
in 6endish triumph over the wounded feel
ings and bruised hearts of their innocent
victims. Beauless old maids and childish
matrons make the most accomplished scan-
dal- -mongers in the world. They seem to
take to tattl ng from the prolnptings of u
natural instinct, and they prosecute it with
an energy that would do Internal honor to
their great leader-the prince Of darkness
himself. Our. contempt for such graceless
creatures knows no bounds, and we can
find no words in which to express its in
fanny. What punishment they deserve we
can not know but God knows, and as sure
as his eternal justice reigns, they will re-
ceive retribution proportioned to the
magnitude of their offenses against the
laws of God and the interests of humanity.

HINTS 1or Farmers.
1t lis not what we make, but what we
save, that makes us rich.
In looking around among my brother
farmers notice many things wherein
there might be greater economy in my
opinion.
In turning cattle out late in the fall,
when the ground is soft, to be trampled
upon.
In letting cattle stand in an unsheltered
yard in cold, stormy weather, when there
is room in the stable for them.
In throwing their fodder in the yard, to
be trampled under foot, instead Of feeding
it in racks.
In not having water in the yard for tn
cattle, in place Of driving them through
snow and all kinds Of weather to tht
creek, thereby losing more in manure du.
ring year than the interest Of what il
Would cost to bring the water in the yard,
to say nothing of the convenience.
In not having house Tor poultry to
rooss in, and save their droppings; the
value of the latter from hundred fowls
il one year, would pay the cost of tht
building, not counting the advantage ii
would be to the fowls.
In not having woodhouse to cut in on
rainy days, and store up dry wood.
In leaving potato-vines, weeds, etc., ge
to waste, instead Of hauling them to the
hog-pen to be worked into manure.
In riding about and leaving the man.
agement vf the work too much to hired
help.
And last, but not least. in sending thei'
children to school day or two each week
and allowing them to play and loiter abou
the rest of it.-Fdrmers' Chronicle.

A Lovely Beast.

A Lovely Beast.
A vague idea seems to prevail with
some that good COW makes her milk in
some mysterious way, drawing it from
the depths Of her moral consciousness,
rather than from the food which she puts
into her machine. Some farmers seem to
act upon this theory and thus take pains
not to supply their cows with plenty of
good succulent food. Verify these slow
farmers have their reward; their cows
look meanly, feel meanly. and give as
little milk as possible. These men take
no prizes at agricultural festivals, they
envy those who do, ard they are apt to be
slow about paying up their grocers' bills.
There are number Of them about the
country, but we trust the last will soon
die out.
A good COW deserves better man than
that. A good COW does her utmost to
minister to our pleasure and profit, and
deserves careful and good treatment.
Remember that, after sort, she is violat-
ing her nature to please Us. The natural
or wild COW gives milk to suckle her
young for few mopths, and then runs
dry some eight or ten months of the year !;
while our COW gives her milk for ten
months in the year without ceasing. We
deprive her Of the pleasure Of sucking
her young and say to her: "Grind up
this fodder into milk for us-workl'' And
she does it, producing for US some three
thousand quarts of milk per year. We
have induced her to forego her own pleas
ure, to forget her child and to work for
US: and, for my part, hold her to be
lovely beast. He, therefore, who strikes
q COW, or starves COW, deserves the stick,
the kick, and starvation. When l am
king, propose myself to keep, for such
fellows use, breezy knoll, wind always
north, thermometer at ten degrees, a
gentle, sleety rain, seasoned with hail,
four rail fence, mostly tumbled down; in
this delicious retreat propose to allow
the Sol Silcoxes to stand, without over
coats, with their backs up and their heads
down; then they can chew their cuds,
and perhaps end them sweet-as the good
COWS do not.
What we ask the COW to do, and what
she does do, is to convert cheap or uain-
viting food into good and dear food. That
is. we put into a COW, per day, say
Twenty pounds Of hay, At ons-half cent. 10
Nine pounds Of shorts or meal, at two cents Is
Total, 2S
and we ask her to produce from it ten
quarts of nice milk, worth at six and
half cents, some 60 or IS cents. Now,
the COW docs not wi to do this, she
wishes to suckle her calf, to lick it and
play with it, and then to wander at her
own sweet will along the medows and
bushy pastures. But she foregoes her own
wishes. and pleases US more than that,
she does it kindly and serenely. Is she
not then q most low ly beast? Is there
any human beast who ever does so? None.

Female Affection.

re"oA A1AeCtsOAs
Woman is not half so selfish creature
as man. When the man is in love. the
object of his passion is himself. When
woman is enamoured of man. she forgets
herself, the world and all it contains. and
wishes to exist only for the object Of her
affection. How few men make any vio-
lent sacrifice to sentiment. How many
women does every man knows, who have
sacrificed fortunes and honors to noble,
pure and disinterested motives! A man
mounts a breach he braves danger, and
obtains victory. This is glorious and
great. He has served his country, he has
acquired fame, preferment, riches. When
ever he appears, respect awaits him. ad-
miration attends him, crowds press to meet
MIN, and theatres receive him with bursts
Of applause. His glory does not die with
him. History preserves his memory from
oblivion. That thought cheers his dying
hour-and his last words, pronounced with
feeble pleasure, are, I shall not die!
A woman sends her husband to the
war she lives bat in that husband. Her
soul goes with him. She trembles for the
safety of the land. Every billow that
swells she thinks it to be his tomb every
ball that flies, she inagines is directed
against him. A brilliant capital appears
to her dreary desert her universe was u
man, and that man, her terror tells her, is
in danger. Her days are days Of sorrow /;
her nights are sleepless. She sits immov-
able ia her mourning, in all the sdignity
and composure Of grief, like Agrippa in
mis- chair and when at night she seeks
repose, retose has fed her couch the 81.
ent tear stsals down her cheek, and vets
her pillow or if by chance, exhausted
nature find an hours slumber, her distem-
pered soul seen in that sleepa bleeding
lover, or his mangled corpse. Time passes
es, and her grief increases, till worn out
at length by too much tenderness, she
falls victim of too exquisite sensibility,
and sinks with sorrow to the grave! No,
cold unfeeling reader! these are not the
pictures Of my own creation. They are
neither changed or embsliished, but are
faithfully copied from nature.
