mate, Dick Merton who had settled down
as 4 sheep-tarmer in South America
Our Joint and rather modest capital was
invested in Il league OF land near Santa
Fe, on the Parana, bought "for Il song"
on account of defect in the title; also 4
few sheep, having the lathy appearance,
and almost the sp, ed, of grey hounds and

of which we had ourselves been the ar

we were not Il little proud. 1t was
built of sun-baked bricks, and consisted
of one tolcrably large room, with a fiat
root and parapct, accessible from the in
side by means of a ladder. Around l..
at about thirty yards distance. we had
dug deep dry ditch, crossed by Il draw
bridge, and intended as 4 protection
against surprise by our enterprising
neighbors the Indians. The latter dusk
gentlemen had hitherto behaved them
selves very much As such, and had con-
fined their throat-cutting propensities to
certain stray sheep, instead of gratifying
them at the expense of the owners. But
ugly tales were still told of their doingS
round about us-of white men taken
while riding in sight Of home, and tor
tured; of cattle driven off. and sheep
spcared in very wantonncsS of mischief
which were not reassuring, and which
caused US 10 keep a particularly sharp
lookout, especially when, as now, the
Indian moon (their favorite time of at
tack) gave light enough to point the way
of plunder, but not to guide the aim of
the defenders.

pipe; but through the rough attire and
surroundings, the indeiinable je nc SaiS
q"0i oi gentility was clearly recognizable
as when he was sowing his rather exten-
sive crop of Wildcats upon home soil,
and before that memorable Derby which
induced him, after settling with duns of
every description, to embark himself and
the leavings of his property, and dwell
among sheep and savages, until he could
return with fresh grist ON the civilized
mill.
"Can you see anything stirring in the
Campo said he, as he came up.
"Ihose horses are making confounded
row in the corral. l saw johnson the
Yankee this morning, and he said that
Indians had crossed the river, and he
guessed we'd better keep our wits we'll

extract, from prominent journal, noted
during tie war for its sympathy with
the rebels and its intense hatred of the
loyal army and government:

south. let Us treat her like tie Prodi-
.;,i son and then. and moi until then shall

This whole extract has an odor OF
sympathy for traitors and contempt for
Union soldiers and the great and glori-
ous wor', they accomplished.
The writer is one OF these .'who hay

its stead an odgarcdy whose corner stone

Inc should at once have an opportunity OF
exhibiting his powers before the congrc-
CATION. But there was this difficulty in
the way the oil pastors resignation
had been set for several weeks in the fu-
ture, and he was still occupying the pull
pit. Deacon R--havln9 doubts a.

a new candidate in before the old one had
taken his departure, took the only proper
course-wcnt directly to the pastor

IEor OF COOP FAIAIING.-Mr. Gree
ley says iii the IrtJoac: The iairest SIN
sle lest OF good farming Is the increasing
produclivcness OF the soil. That farm
which averaged 20 bushels OF grain to the
acre 20 yeas ago, % bushels ten years
ago: and wll measure up 30 bushels to
the acre from his years crop, has been
and is IN good hands. L know no other
touchstone OF farming 50 unerring as that
Of the increase or decrease from year to
year of lis aggregate product. If you
would convince Inc that y. is a good
farmer, do not tell Inc of some great crop
he has grown, but show me that his crop
has regularly Increased from year to year,
and l am satisfied.
