LOVERS IN A FIX.

A few nights since, as the moon rose over
the hills and tree tops, gliding the spires o'
our beautiful city With her silvery rays
there might have been seen upon the root
of an Egyptian cottage, which is fiat, and
covered with pure white gravel and pitch
a couple of lovers seated, enjoying the
beauty of the scene, and
saTho' few the hours the moments few,
So warm with heart, so rich with love they flew
That their full souls forgot the will to roam,
And rested there as in draam at home"
The sun during the day had been very
warm, and thus they met to spend the Heet'
ing hours of twilight, enjoying the pleasant
breegezthat foated up from the magnolia
garden beneath; and interchanging those
soul-longings and warm affections for each
other. Seated near each other the lovers
sat, with one arm he enoircled the waist OF
the beautiful creature at his side. I
"Her little hand lay gently, confdingly in his"
and all passed quiet and loving until the
bell tolled the hour of midnight.
sNone but the loving and beloved
Should be awake at this sweet hour"
The toling Of the bell reminded them
that -.
ssFired natures sweet restorer, balmy Sleep"
was requisite for lovers as well as others.
Still seated near each other, the plghted
VOWS were again and again exchanged, and
sealed with kisses, like
"Linked sweetness long drawn out"
At length, after many vain attempts to
sever these pleasant pleasures, the trans
ported s'loveis' found that they were bound
to each other by more sticking bonds than
lovers VOWS. The hot sun had melted the
pitch, and after sitting SO long, the night
air having cooled the resinous matter, they
found they were both s'stuck fast" The
gentleman was the first to try to disengage
himself, but found that, like Aunt Jemima' s
plaster, ssthe more you pull it the tighter it
sticks the faster The lady then attemp.
ted to get up, which she succeeded in doing,
minus the skirt Of her dress, and all her
under clothes, as far as the ''tilters." In
this plight, she attempted to deliver her
disconsolate partner, but it was Of no use
he couldn't come.
After some parley, he came to the con-
elusion he could manage it by slipping out
Of his pants. Accordingly, he asked Of his
companion if she could lend him pair Of
pants until he could 60 home. She thought
her pas would do, if they were not too long.
With this information, he slipped off his
boots, and loosing his suspenders, drew him
self out of his pants as easily as possible,
and the diseonsolate couple took themselves
down stairs in very blushing manner, and:
looking very much like our first parents
when they discovered they were human.
The lady procured as quietly as possible a
pair of her fathers pants, which were run
into very quick, and the Adonis decamped
with his pants rolled up about six inches.
The joke was too good to be kept; by
little and little it leaked out, until the whole
of the facts of the case had to be told to
exculpate the happy innocshts. So says
the Memphis Argus. . .

SAVING MANuRE.-Eyery man of com
mon sense must admit that the rules to bt
adopted for rational system of saving
manures, must be based on the knowledg,
of this process and we may lay down tn
following rules in relation to it:
LIST. The ground selected for the disposi
ton of stable manure should be even, il
order to permit the equal distribution o
the manure on it, and thus secure to the heaI
uniformity in thickness. Only in this case
the process of putrefaction will proceed reg
ularly in every part Of the heap, and itt
body will prove to be a homogeneous char
acter. 49,.
I'd. The manure should be protected
against the direct rays of the sun, in orde,
to prevent the too rapid advance Of the pu'
trefactive process, and a consequent gene
ration of heat which will incur considera.
Bile loss of ammonia. Practical expert.
ments made with equal weights Of stable
manure exposed to the sun, and with that
under cover, show the effect of the latter to
be, within certain time, about twenty-five
per cent. greater than the former.
8, The manure. heap should be kept
moderately moist; if it be too dry, the de.
gree ofheat then produced will volatilize
ammonia !; if too wet, an acid humus will be
formed, which, being soluble in water, acts
very 1njuriously on vegetation. In order
best to attain this end, the ground should
be slightly inclined, and all the fluid that
runs from the heap be collected in a pit and
from time to time scattered over the heap.

ORIGINAL AND SELECTED.
WHAT EVERY CONGREGATION NEEDS.
Let us look at this subject from COM

mon sense point of view, and answer it ac-
cordingly. Every congregation needs 3
pious pastor-an intelligent man, who is
able to teach the people what they must
believe, and what they must do to be saved.
A prudent man--a man of common sense
who by his counsel and admonition will
pour oil on the troubled waters. A man Of
deep toned piety, who, by his walk and con-
versation, will WOO sinners to Christ and
cause believers to grow in grace. Every
congregation needs the public means Of
grace dispensed to it every Sabbath. No
community Of christians can expect to in
crease IN numbers or grow in piety which
only occasionally enjoys the means ofgrace.
Some congregations content themselves
with preaching twice a month; others are
SO poor they think that once month is as
often as they can sustain ordinances. Such
congregations are Like the fields Of the slug
gard. Weeds and grass deform the latter
irregular conduct the former. -.
Another thing that every congregation
needs is prudent ruling officers. These
hold up the hands Of the pastor; sustain
and encourage him in the discharge Of his
duty. ---> 49,, -,
Still another thing that every eongrega-
tion needs is prudent, intelligent and ener-
getic man to take the lead in it's secular
affairs. Many congregation disgraces it.
self in the eyes Of the world and robs God
because it has no such man. Many poor
pastor is made to hold down his head in
shame when he meets his creditor, because
his congregation is destitute of such lead
er. An energetic business man, who will
undertake and manage the secular affairs of
a congregational business way, can change
q poor starving congregation into a -four
ishing one. By bis energy he silences those
sickly drones who are continually annoying
their neighbors by telling how poor they are.

% A man who has made tour among

what man does or believes if he only be-
