A HINT TO THE FAIR SEx.-I have
found that the men who are really the
most fond of the ladies-who cherish for
them the highest respect-are seldom the
most popular with the sex. Men of great
assurance, whose tongues are lightly hung,
who make words supply the ideas, and
place compliment in the room of sesltl-
ment, are their favorites A due respect
for women leads to respectful action to-
ward them, and respect is mistaken by
them for neglect or want of love.

ters in the English language which excites
more pleasing associations in the mind of
man than wife. There is magic in this
little word. 1t presents 10 the minds eye

wiser, nurse in sickness, q comforter in

your happiness, to partakc with you the
cup, whether of veal or woe, which desti-

How MUCH is AN ACRE ?-As Agri-
cultural Societies are being organized in
various places, and a deeper interest than
usual seems to be. felt among farmers on
he'subject of farming, any little item of
q practical character wilisbe noticed.
Well, we hear of so many pounds of
guano to the acre-one, two or three
hundred pounds-but how much is an
acre? We look at pla5 of ground and
say, or think, it contains an acre, but il
may be more or less, and we may put too
much or too little guano on the plat. An
acre is 4.S40 square yards, and we can
step off our field or patch and ascertain
its dimensions with sufficient accuracy
for all practical purposes.
The stepping business is quick and
easy way of measuring land, provided
you step yard at stretch. Then step
III yards in length and 40yards in width,
and you have an acre. Or if your rows
are from 405 to 500 yards long, step off
10 yards in width, and you have your
acre; er lei yards long and 80 wide will
give you the acre. Then, il you want
half or the fourth of an acre, divide the
above figures.
Lay'off your ground for corn four feet
each way-put q tablespoonful of guano,
mixed with sawdust, dampcned, to each
kilEascertain how many spoonsful there
are in. o pound Of manure, and how many
pounds it will take to manure the fourth
or eighth of an acre-then you can de-
termine with accuracy how much you
ehght to apply TO an acre, or to field of
ten or fifty acres.
Lay off your cotton rows three feet or
three and half feet wide step off u
quarter of an acre, 10 yards long and Z!
yards wide. Try one quarter with 20
pounds of guano, another with 80, anoth-
or with 40, and another with 50 pounds,
and the quarter that makes The most cot
ton has been rightly manursd. EXrcri,

METHUsELAH DROWNED IN THE FLOOD.
We make the following extract from an
article contributed to the Louisville Demo-
crdt:
All we know of the origin of the earth
and of our race we learn from Revela-
tons. The chronology used by the civil
lied world is founded on the data furnish
ed in the Bible. We reckon the date of
the food from the dates found in the 9Th
chapter Of Genesis. We learn from this
chapter that Adam lived before his son
Seth was born, 130 years; Seth lived, be-
fore his son Enos was born, los years
Enos lived, before his son Cainan was
born, 80 years; Cainan lived, before his
son Mahalahul was born, 70 years Maha-
ahul lived, before his son Jared was born,
65 years; Jared lived, before his son
Enoch was born, 1852 years; Enoch lived.
before his son Methuselah (6S7) was born,
i95 years; Methuselah lived, before his son
Lamech was born, 1877 years Lamcch,
lived before his son Noah was born, 1872
years. Noah hence was born Ammo Mum
di 1856.
In Genesis, 7th chapter 9Th verse, we
are informed that Noah was 600 years old
when the flood of'water was upon tho
earth. Add 600 years (his age) to 1856,
the date of his birth, and we have 1856,
the date ofthe food We learn from the
9th verse, 5th chapter of Genesis, that
l"all the days of Methuselah werc 969
years and he died" By reference to the
foregoing table, it will be seen that Me-
thuselah was born Ammo Mundi 6S7; add
his age (969) to 607, the date of his birth
and we have 1855, the time "wben the
food of waters was upon the earth." The
conclusion is as certain as figures, that
the oldest man was drowned for his wick
edness.

CURE FOR Isenow1Na NA11s.-It is sta

CURE FOR INeRow1NG NA1Ls-It is sta
ted that tho cauterization by hot tallow is
an immediate cure for ingrowing nails.
Put d small piece of tallow in spoon, and
heat ii over lamp until it becomes very
hot, and drop two or three drops betwee
the nail and granulation. The effect is
almost magical. Pain and tenderness are
at once relieved and in few days the
granulations all go, leaving the diseased
parts dry, so as to admit being pared
sway without any Inconvenience. The
operation causes little if any pafh, Ii the
tallow is properly heated
