A Beautiful Love Story.

The Count de ST. Croix. belonging to
one of the noblest and wealthiest fami
lies of France, became engaged, after a
long courtsIip, to a lady his equal in pc
sition and fortune, and famous for her
beauty. Shortly after the happy day
was appointed which was to render two
loving hearts one, the Count was ordered
Immediately to the siege of Sebastopol;
so he girded on his saber, and at the head
of his regiment marched on to the battle
field. During the Counts absence it hap
pened that bis beautiful affianced had the
smallpox; and lowering between life and
death, she recovered, but found her beau
ty hopelesslv lost. The disease had as
sumed. in her case, the most virulent
character, and left her not only dis6gured,
but scanned aud SCARED TO such fright
full extent that she became hideous to her
self, and resolved to pass the remainder
of her days in the striclest seclusion.
A year passed away, when one day

sented himself at the residence of lis be-
trothed and solicited an interview. This
was refused. He, however. with the
persistence of lover, pressed the suit. and
fiuall3 the lady made her appearance,
very closely muffisd in veil. AT the
sound of her voice the Count rushed for
ward to embrace her, but, stepping aside,
she tremblingy told him the story of her
sorrow, and burst into tears. A heaven

UEBORaH LEE.

IT'S dozen or so Of years ago,
Somewhere in the west cOuntree,
That a nice girl lived, whom you may know,
BY the name of Deborah Lee;
Her sister was loved by Edgar Poe,
But Deborah by me.
Now was green and she wss green,
As summer squash might b.;
But we loved as warmly as ether folks,
and my Deborah Lee
With love that the Iasses of Hoosierdom
Coveted her and me.
But somehow it happened, long ago,
Ia the aguish west countree,
That chill March morning gave the SHAKES
To my beautiful Deborah Lee;
And the grim Steam Doctor course HIND came,
And bore her away from me;
The Doctor and Death-oId partners they
In the aguish west countree.
The angels wanted her up in Heaven,
(But they never asked for med
Aud that is the reason, rather guess,
In the aguish west countree,
That the cold March wini and the Doctor aud Death
Took or my Deborah Lee,
Ny beautiful Deborah Lee,
From the warm sunshine and the opening flowers,
And hid her away from me,
Our love was as strong as a six horse team,
Or the love oil folks older than we,
And possibly wiser than we;
Bat Death, with the aid of Doctor and steam,
Was rather too many for me-
So he closed the peppers and stopped the breath
of my sweetheart, Deborah Lee,
And her form lies cold, in the prairie mould
Silent and cold-ah mel
The foot of the hunter shall press her grave.
And the prairie's sweet wild flowers
In their OdorOus beauty around il wave,
Through all the summer hours,
The still, bright summer hours.
And the birds shall sing in the tufted grass.
And nectaT-laden bee,
With his dreamy hum, on his gauze wings pass;
She wakes no mole to mel
Though the wild birds sing and the wild flowers spring.
She wakes no more to mel
Yet oft in the hush of the dim, still night,
vision of beauty see,
Gliding soft by my bedside, phantom Of light
Dear, beautiful. Deborah Lee,
Nv bride that was to be-
And wake to mourn that the Doctor and Death,
And the cold March wind, should stop the breath
of my darling Deborah Lee,
Adorable Deborah Lee;
That the angels should want her up In Heaven
Before they wanted mel

GROWERS. There is class of mcn
in every community who 60 about with
vinegar faces, growing because they are
not appreciated as they think they should
De, and who constantly quarrel with
their destiny. These men usually have
made a great mistake in their estimate
of their abilities, or are unmitigated DOM
keys, or ignorant wire pulling politicians,
In either case they are unfortunate. Ii
people despise you, do not tell it all over
town. If you are capable, show it. If
you are right down clever fellow, wash
the NORWOOD off your face. and show
your good will by deeds. Then. if the
people feel above you, go right off and
feel above them, If they swell when they
pass you in the street, swell yourself,
and if this does not fetch them, conclude
very good naturally that they are un
worthy of your acquaintance, and pity
them for missing such capital chance
of getting into good company.

WHEN AND HOW TO BUD.

Budding, we need hardly say is the pro
cess of removing bud from one tree or
plant and inserting it in another tree of
allied species.
The object of budding is the same as
of grating, viz to propagate desirable
sort of tree or plant. The only differ
ence between bud and scion is, that the
lstter is a development of the former.
Fruit can generally be obtained by graft
ing two years sooner than by budding.
But when q variety is very rare, we can
by budding get new limbs from single
eyes, whereas in grating we have to use
three or four eyes. Some trees, moreover,
propagate more readily by budding than
by grating. The stone fruits exude so
much gum when grated, that it is hard
10 succeed in the work. Then, too, in
all kinds of fruit, where grating has
failed or been forgotten in spring, bud
ding may be resorted to in summer.
The usual time for budding is from the
first of July to the middle of August.
But more accurate rule is TO be found in
the state of the buds and the bark. The
shoot from which the buds are taken must
be of the current years growth and must
be mature. This maturity will be
shown by the forming of buds at the
skis of the leaves and of the terminal
buds. The best buds for working will

Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1870-12-01

Plunss usually finish their growth earlier
than other trees; hence they should be
budded earliest. Next come cherries,
and then pears, etc. The bark must be
in a condition to lift easily from the
wood, and there must be sap enough be-
tween the two to feed the young bud, and
to help form union with it.
The practical operation of bud
ding is simple. The method COM
monty followed in this country, called
shield-budding, is as fellows: Having
cut scion containing several good buds,
choose smooth, young limb for the OPP
Grafton, and, if possible, let the insertion
be made on the north side of the limb.
With sharp, thin bladed knife, cut a
slit through the bark about an inch and g
half long, and cross cut at the top OF
1t. Then from your scion slice out q
good bud, leaving little of the bark at
tached. Now, with the other end OF
your budding knife, raise the bark of the
stock, and slip the bud into the slit, and
press it down to the bottem of it. Fin
ish the work by tying down the bark
and bud with bass mating or wooden
yarn SO as exclude air and moisture from
ell except the point of the bud.
Do the work quick, otherwise the bud
will dry and be less likely to grow A
minute is full long enough.
AFTER TRBATMKNT.-In a fortnight
after, examine the buds to see whether
they have ''taken." This may be deter.
mined by their freshness and plumpness.
As soon as they have ''taken," the band
ages should be loosened little, to allow
for expansion of both stock and bud. On
the opening of the following spring the
stock should be cut off, with sloping
cut, two or three inches above the bud.
The bud will now grow with great vigor.

remained implanted with berries, thinking
this was rich enough. Iplanted without
further manuring. Both thepotatoes and
berries made better growth on the part
msnured in the row with fine decomposed
manure, at the rate of ten loads per acre,
than they did on the part MANFRED the
previous year at the rate of fifty loads
per acre. This land is net leachy, but q

planted about one and q half acres with
peas. Upon one end of the patch /
spread, in March, three loads of fresh
manure, at the rate of twenty loads per
acre, and upon the remainder put five
loads of fine manure in the rows, and the
turnips were equally good on both parts.
Farmers, you can no more afford to have
your plant food lying unappropristed in
the soil, than you can afford to have your
money buried in the ground. Use them
both, and thus you will have more to use.
Manure not for next year, or five years
hence, but for this year; thus can you
raise larger crops to feed or sell, and thus
in turn make or buy more manure for
another year.

EARN AND GARpEN.
FALL mANURING-THE SECOND
GROWTH OF BARLEY.


GROWTH OF RARE4EY.
There is much diversity of opinion
among farmers in regard to the applica-
ton of manure. Some maintain that it
is best 20 apply manure fresh from tie
stable and plow it under Immediately,
while others are advocates of letting it
undergo fermentation and mixing with
the soil on the surface. The former
method is to prevent evaporation, and the
latter is to prevent filtration, neither of
which is very important for manure win
not exhale much of its useful parts when
spread on the surface, and filtration is
imaginary. The surface of the soil and
the atmosphere are the manipulators of
fertility, and manure put on the subject
or plowed under win find its proper level
through the agency of air, earth and
water. Only put it plentifully on, as the
old farmer said in reply to the question,
how shall manure be applied, on the sur
face or plowed under9 ''only put ii 1oLe'a-
TRULY on, is the only answer he would
give to the question. Manure that suits
on one kind of soil may not suit so well
on other soils.
A citizen of Onondago county, N. Y,
writes to the Country Gentleman that
after applying manure in the fall of 1868
to his wheat land, what was left was put
on part of another field; coarse manure
was drawn on to second part of this
field, in the spring of 1869, before turning
it over for corn; and third part, directly
after blowing, received some inemsnure,
the scrapings of the yard the previous
fall, etc. The relative results he thinks
need hardly be told to those who practice
the first mode, but for the benefit of
others, he states that the corn was much
the best where the manure was applied in
the fall; where the fine manure went on
top after blowing, was next best, and as
to the second part, with the long manure
plowed under, ''it was like putting
mans dinner under the table where he
could not reach it until too late to be of
much benefit" In 1870 this field was in
barley, and the same distinction was as
plain as in the year before. The crop
was taken off July %, and second crop
self-sown, succeeded, also showing the
same comparative condition. The writer
continues:
81 have no occasion to pasture the
field until lately, and / have refrained
from doing so now, believing that the
second crop will be worth more 10 the
soil than to feed it off-and why will it
not be worth as much for after crops as
q coat of barn yard msnure2 The only
doubt have of it is, whether in the freez-.
ing it will receive before decaying, or be-
coming plsnt>food, its manurial proper
ties may not be considerably wasted; but
then will not the covering by its growth
that the soil has had all this while, make
up for any loss of that kind9 Its growth
may also be worth putting on record, as
popularity of the season of 1870-alm0st
giving two crops.
