is fully or dead ripe. When the straw, i'm
mediately before the grain ripens, is so dry
that on twisting it no juice is extracted, it
should be cut, for there is then no circula-
ton of juice to the ear.

Three Kisses of Farewell.

TThess exquisite verses are from one of "Esthe
7ynn's Love Letters" in Seribaer's for December.
Three, only three, my darling,
Separate, solemn, slow;
Not like the ssit and joyous ones
We used to know,
When we kissed because we loved each othe
Simply to taste loves sweet,
aud lavished our kisses as the summer
Lavishes heat
But as they kiss whose hearts are wrung,
When hope and fear are spent,
And nothing is left to give, except
A sacrament
First Of the three, my darling,
Is sacred unto pain;
We have hurt each other often;
We shall again,
When we pine because we miss each other,
And do not understand
How the written words are so much colder
Than eye and hand.
kiss thee, dear, for all such pain
Which we may give or take;
Buried, forgiven, before it comes
For our loves sakel
The second kiss, my darling,
Is fun of Joys sweet thrill;
We have blessed each other always
We always Will
We shall reach until we feel each other;
Past all OF time and space;
We shall listen til we hear each other
In every place;
The earth is full of messengers,
Which love sends to and fro;
kiss thee, darling, for all Joy
Which we shall know!
The last kiss oh, my darling,
Ny love-cannot see
Through my tears, as I remember
What it may be.
We may die and never see each other;
Die with no time to give
Any sign that our hearts are faithful
To die, as live.
Token of what they VIII not see
Who see our parting breath,
This one last kiss, my darling, seals
The seal of DEATH

the earth, the loss of social position, or the
fevered effort she makes to support it, wears
out her life in bitter repinings, until her
health gives way and she dies, leaving her
faults to vex the world in her children, and
her virtues undiscovered, save by the hus-
band, who hides from himself all else of her
memory,-Lippincotts Magazine.

The Following Passage is from Prof Upham

The Following Passage is from Prof. Upham.
He is speaking of the captain of the
steamer in which he sailed from New York:
GAS we were about to start, saw him move
to an elevated position above the wheel; and
it was interesting to see how quickly and
completely the inward thought or purpose
alters the outward man. He stood few
moments silent and thoughtful. He gave a
quick glance to every part of the ship. He
cast his eyes over the multitude coming on
board the ship, among whom was the Amer
lean Ambassador to England, who, if the cap
tain may be said to embOdy the ship, may
be said with equal truth to embOdy, in his
official person, a nations rights and ma
tons honor. He saw the husbands and the
wives, the mothers and the children intrusted
to his care; and his slender form as he gave
the orders for our departure, seemed at once
to grow more erect and firm; the muscles Of
his face swelled; his dark eye glowed with a
new fire; and his whole person expanded
and beautifed itself by the power of inward
emotion.
81 have often noticed this interesting
phenomenon; and have come to the cOnclu.
sion, if man or woman wishes to realize the
full power of personal beauty, it must be by
cherishing noble hopes and purposes; by
having something to do and something to
live for, which is worthy of humanity, and
which, by expanding the capacities of the
soul, gives expansion and symmetry to the
BODY which contains it.

HORNER'S Maryland PHOSPHATE


After % years experience in the Fertilizng bus
mess, and after establishing wide reputation for
the purity and excellence of his Bone Dust, the
subscriber has been induced to prepare Phosphate
suitable to the requirements and every way worthy
the attention of the Southern Farmer.
The Maryland" is RSuyeadtor and permanent
Improver of the soil 1t stimulates equal to Peru
Wan Guano, and sustains equal to Bone, being COM
posed almost entirely of these ingredients, with
very liberal percentage of Potash in the residuum.
There is no adulterator nor inferior article used
every particle of the Phosphate being of essential
benefit to tie land Neither pains expense have
been spared in its preparation, and we claim for 1t
the greatest benefit to the farmer from the smallest
outlay.
For Cotton, Wheat and Corn, and as general
stimulant and aliment for worn and impoverished
land, there can be nothing superior. 1t is warrant
ed to run as high in Ammonia and higher in Bone
Phosphate than any other fertilizer in the market.

announcement to Teachers.

George Barnden, when lad in the Sabbath
School, was apparently the most careless
member of the class; the one of whom his
teacher would have the least hope of good;
yet after few years he became member
of the church, and was sent as missionary
to the Navigator's Island. Here he labored
with great energy for time, till one day,
while bathing, he was drowned. Williams,
in his Missionary Narrative" says of him
''Barnden is dead; Barnden, who would walk
thirty miles, and preach six times day, is
dead" Teacher, perhaps the boy who is
giving you the most trouble will prove the
most useful MANS. s. Times.

the price could not fail to put competition
at defiance. The question of the meat sup

monopoly. The great plains of Texas will

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
Another Telescope Crush.


ERIE, Pa, August 27.-The Erie mai
west collided with the first section of the
Empire freight, between seven and eight
o'clock yesterday morning, when about one
and a half miles west of Westport station
on the middle division of the Philadelphia
and Erie railroad, causing the death of Reu.
ben Winslow and X. G.. Brown of Lock
Haven, passengers; E. w. Lyman, William
port, conductor, and Thomas Cannon, Dun
kirk, fireman of mail train; James Wizard,
BellefOnt, Pennsylvania, conductor,s and
William Killinger, Altoona, Pennsylvania,
engineer of the freight train dangerously
9njuring A. M. Alwater, Lock Haven; Reu-
ben Hitler, Williamsport; James Shaffer, Jr.,
DIR. Sinnamahoning, Pennsylvania, and P.
passenger train. Lesser injuries were sus-
1ained by Thomas McNanny, Wayne, Penn
sylvania; A. III. Steele, Tionsta, Pennsylva-
MIA; j. III. Cornwall, Binghamton, New
York; Martin X. Fisher, Lock Haven; G.
Star, Philadelphia; Judge A. Dale, Tionsta:
Henry Thompson, Williamsport; Even Pr
per, Sinnamahoing; Frank Room, Altoona;
the baggage master of the mail train, an
AlOnzo Lyon, Remove, Pennsylvania. The
fireman of the freight train and others were
slightly bruised and scratched
The passenger train was about an hour
late in leaving Williamsport, and was run
ming abou ut thirty-fve miles an hour, and
the freight about eighteen miles. The
trains meeting on sharp curve, were not
visible to each other till within few yards,
and the speed was not checked. The bag
gage car was telescoped with the smoking
car, and all but few passengers, in the rear
car were uninjured.
An official investigation shows that the
acct dent was caused by the neglect of the
conductor and engineer of the mail train to
obey orders given them not to pass West
port until the freight train had arrived, A
copy of the order was found in the pocket of
the engineer, who was believed to be fatally
inj ured, but later intelligence reports him
improving, though still unable to converse.
