wearing luxurious garments and jewels of

SIT beside them, regarding them as little
as the weeds on the wsyside. and perhaps
sneer thoughtlessly, if their homely gar

THE USE or WHITING. In reading
recently a detailed statement pf The capture
of Fort Pulaski by our troops on the lth
of April, 1862, we learned that whiting
vas turned 10 good account. Late at
night 1.-THE engagement was 10 begin early
next morningj Lieut.. Porter visited all our
batteries TO see that every thing was ready
for the opening of the great drama =
Many little items were found to be needed,
and were promptly provided. At the ten
inch mortar battery, fuse plugs were still
wanting, and there were noue TO be had.
The ordinance officer had brought up a
supply, but they we're prepared for ans
other piece, and were of no use. Here,
then, were four pieces in the mos. ad-
vanced position, which would be useless
and fire was to be opened at daylight
The officer was in despair until a
happy thought struck him. There was
a Yankee regiment on the iSland--all
Yankees are whittlers-and if that regl-
ment cotld be turned out at once, and set
to work at their fa1orite pastirie, they
could white out supply before daylight
Porter Immediately put spirs to his horse
and rode furiously to camp The Sixth
Connecticut was ordered out 10 whlttle,
and did whittle to advantage; providing
all the plugs that G'ere used in Battery
Totten on the two succeeding days-unti

passed again Under The stars and stripes

The suit of the Rothschilds against
the Ssate of Virginia for quantity of to.
bacco stored in one of the warehouses at
Richmond at the time of the evacuation,
has been revived. Messrs. Ould and Car
rington have been employed as counsel,
and at the next term of the court amotion
will be made for judgment. Tne amount
claimed is about s25O,Ooo. At one time
the Confederate authorities half way
agreed that this tobacco might 60 through
the lines, and under a permission from
President Lincoln and Secretary Stanton,
two French ships came up as far as City
Point to receive it. Although it had been
hauled to Rockets, it was not allowed to
be shipped through, and was returned to
one Of the warehouses, where it was de.
stroyed in the great fire of the ard of

The JACQUES STUMP ExTRAcroR.-I

The JACQUES STUMP ExTRAcToR.-For
many years, indeed as long as the clear
ing of forest land for agricultural purpo-
ses 8 has been necessary, (and this period
dates anterior to the days of Columbus,)
the great difficulty in clearing has been
to get rid of the stump or root OF the tree
which remained in the ground after the
tree was tclIed and converted into the
thousand and one uses for which the tim
ber was necessary. In such land, inter-
layed with roots and stumps, the modern
Improvements in agricultural implements
could not be made use Of, and in these
days when all such labor-saving machines
are most essential to the thriving farmer
or planter he must first look to the radl-
calclearing of his land.
Our enterprising fellow-ctizcn and mas
ter mechanic, Mr.. James M. Eason, has
given this subject much Of his attention
of late, and has been so successful as to
invent q very simple machine, which has
been illustrated and described in the De-
cember number of the RuraL Carolinian,
but which was not put to the test until
yesterday. This new invention OF MIR.
Eason is appropriately called the "Jacques
stump extractor;" and on trial yesterday,
with leverage of only SO INCHES, it
raised 1900 tons of iron while the young
man who worked the lever felt no moro
inconvenience than if working common
cistern pump. With ten-foot leverage,
man, it is supposed, could raise one hun
drcd tons; and the stump which would

Mr.. Eason has applied fora patent for

days will take it up to some of the neigh
boring farms and extract some of the

A PRACTICAL APPLICATION. Nicholas
Vain, though regular Quaker preacher,
was great wag, and many of the good
things said by him are still current in GER
tain Philadel phia circles. He was once
travelling in the interior of Pennsylvania,
in company with two methodist preachers.
They discussed the points of difference-in
their respective sects, until they arrived
at the inn whore they were to put up for
the night At supper, Vain was seated
between the two methodsts, and before
them was placed plate containing two
trout Each of the circuit-riders placed
his fork in fish and transferred it to his
plate, after which each shut his eyes and
said an audible grace before meat. The
Quaker availed himself Of the opportuni-
ty to transfer both of tho trout TO his own
plate, merely remarking, when the others
opened their eyes, "Your religion teaches
you to pray, but mine teaches mo both to
watch and pray"

together present irregularly horizontal

same height, which shows thatthey have
been cut Of the same breadth, for slices
of different breadths, laid together at
whatever angle, present unequal vertical
lines. The furrow:slices should present
to the eye a similar form of erect and
equal surface, should have their back and
face parallel, and should lie over to the

ed should feel equally firm under the foot

By the diligent use of two-horse turn
plow, of any of the newest and most ap-
proved models, followed by Brinly or a
Murfee sub-soiler, the great object of
plowing-a thorough pulverization of the
soil-can be attained, avenues for the en-
trance of those natural fertilizers, heat,
air, light and moisture, are opened, a soft,
porous bed: through which the roots of
plants can easily penetrate and extend in
every direction in search of nourishment,
will be afforded, the manures which are
applied will bn thoroughly mixed with
the soil, and the rocky portions of the
land under the decomposing action of the
atmosphere will supply that mi neral food
which contributes so largely to the growth
and fruitfulness OF our crops. The looser,
more pulverized, and finer the soil, the
healthier and more productive Will be the
plants we cultivate, and the sulcr our
protection against drought and "bad sea-
sons" The key to the accomplishment
of all this is good, deep plowing.

AN AppREc1AT1vE AUDIToR.-A lectu.
rer relates the following among his cxpe-
ricnce':
II remember, once, when making an
effort at the pathetic, touched a secret
chord of every heart and brought to view
little coffin, over which the grass had
grown, green in summer and the frosts
had whitened in winter for many n year.
She was my darling child, scarce two
years old, but, in my love for her, more
than threc-scorc years and ten. With all
fathers love, pictured how, from day
to day = saw herfade away. told them
how at length, one August morning, the
sun an hour high, she was prepared for
her long fight. The angel came, invisi-
BILE to me, but knew that.hc was there,
and with his pencil dipped in some ray of
living and eternal light he dipped her lit
tie cyclids DER. We had watched long
and were wearied, and when night came
the shutters were closed and the doors all
barred an old gray-headed man lay him
down beside the little coffin and slept.
II seemed lonesome to us to leave her SO,
but the thin lips needed no moro moisten-
ing now-thc pulse had ceased to beat,
the heart was forever still.
'tAnd when the morrow came we put
her away among the grass and flowers
and singing birds. In the fullness of our
almost breaking hearts | was about to
mourn that thus they made an angel away
off yonder, where the young and lovely
never die and the flowers never fadc,
when TO my great surprise, one of my
hearers, an old lady, hustled to her feet
and, with her eyes in tears, vehcmently
exclaimed, Il want to know, stranger. if
that child died. 1 gave upthe pathetic" !"
