HOW A YANKEE DIDN'T SUCCEED

From time to time have read in your
much valued paper, selected articles on
Deep Culture" Thorough Culture, p"
and similar topics. Now these articles
read very nicely and are evidently be-
lieved by those who wrote them, and L too
might have believed them, if | had not
witnessed the effects of little deep
ploughing that was little too deep. You,
of course, know that at the close of the
war great numbers of we ''poor rebels"
were very glad to rent our places to the
enterprising Yankees, who came in shoals
to plant cotton. / was of this number.
In 1866 | rented out one thousand acres
of my land at five dollars an acre. 1t
was good bargain and was faithfully
kept. The renter, a real live Yankee,
brought with him more tools and fixings
than had ever imagined made. Among
other things, he brought some of the big
gest ploughs that ever a horse was hitched
to. He tore up the ground to a depth
never seen in this section before. Every
body said he was running the land by
turning the clay subsoil on top-that he
would not make his seed back And for
once, everybody was right. He did fail,
most successfully, and | have not been
able to make halfa crop on the land since.
But he paid his rent and acted on the
square with me, and have no complaint
to make of him, but [ wish to know how
the advocates of deep ploughing reconcile
these facts with their theory. 4. 4.

THE HONEST IRISH BoY.-There was
a lad in Ireland who was put to work at a
linen factory, and while he was at work
there, piece of cloth was wanted TO be

might be made the length by little
stretching. He thereupon unrolled the
cloth, taking hold of one end of it him
self, and the boy at the other. He then
said, Pull, Adam, pull. I" l cannot,

The Pail Mall Gazette scoIds the
English Women for not dressing better
:, cry few women can prudently disregard
the attractions which they might derive
from dresses of graceful tints and perfect
shape. The draggle-tailed appearance of
married women of the poor classes is. we
do not doubt, one cause of the preference
which their husbands show for the public
house. 1t mnSt be miserable THING to
live in the same house with woman Who
is, fguratively speaking, down at the heel
all over. We believe it to be true that
English women attach less importance to
dress than their sisters in America or
France. They like to look well at home
rather than to make a show out of doors.
When they have this ambition and sue
coed in it, they are to be commended; but
too often they do not succeed.

Deep ploughing is most excellent, when
practiced rightly, but it will not do to APP
ply any rule to all cases. The soil ON the
farm spoken of by our correspondent is
quite thin, and the subsoil is clay. Now,
if instead OF putting in the great ploughs
mentioned, the man had used ordinary
turning ploughs that would have turned
over only the soil and followed in the fur
row thus opened with long, keen bull
tongues, he would have had the right kind
of ploughing As it was, he merely
turned up the barren subsoil
If our correspondent will lime and
manure the fields so broken up, and put
them down in clover, he will even yet
have cause to thank the deep ploughing.

TRAVELLING STONES. = They have
walking stones in Australia, and, as we
are informed, they have travelling stones
in Nevada Here is a description -
They are almost perfectly round, the ma
ioritv of them as large as walnut, and
of an irony nature. When distributed
about upon the floor, table, or any other
level surface, within two or three feet of
each other, they Immediately began tray
cling towards common centre, and there
huddle up in a bunch, like lot of eggs
in a nest. A single stone removed to a
distance of three and half feet, upon
being released, at once started off with
wonderful and somewhat comical CELEBRITY
TO join its fellows; taken away four or five
feet it remained mohonless. They are
found, in a region that although compar-
ativeIy level, is nothing but barren rock.
Scattered over this barren region are little
basins, from a few feet TO a rod in diam
eter, and it is in the bottom of these that
the rolling stones are found. They are
from the size of pea to five or six inches
in diameter. The cause of these stones
rolling together is doubtless to be foud in
the material of which they they are COM
posed, which appears to be loadstone or
magnetic iron ore.
EFFECTS OF MUsIc.-The effect of music
on the senses was oddly and wonderfully
verified, during the mourning for the Duke
of Cumberland, uncle of George III. A
tailor had an order for great number of
black suits, which were to be finished in
very short space of time. Among his work
men there was fellow who was always
singing Rule Britannia" and the rest of the
journeymen joined in the chorus. The tai
Tor made his observations, and found that
the slow time of the tune retarded the work;
in consequence. he engaged blind fiddler,
him play constantly the lively tune of MAN. |
cy Dawson" The design had the desired |
effect; the tailoTs' elbows moved obedient |
to the melody, and the clothes were sent /
home within the prescribed period.

STEAM PLoUGHs.-The New York
Farmers Club, in answer to an inquiry,
says There are now FIVE English steam
ploughs running in this country-one in
Kentucky, one in Texas, and three in
Louisiana. They cost about SO, 900, and
give great satisfaction, as they do the
work of twenty or thirty horses, with the
labor of two or three attendants. In
England there are two thousand of these
ploughs, and in Egypt four hundred
They run gang of from three TO six
pIoughs, and pulverize as deep as fourteen
inches They can go much deeper if the
farmer wishes. Two or three inventors
are working out the Yankee steam plough.
One proposes to build, for about SO, 1000,
an engine that will move back and forth
on the line of a wire rope fastened at the
headbands to a selfadvancing anchor"
