.sHard Ti,,,es.,,

The farmer who owns his land, is free
from debt, aud has tolerable improve
ments, cannot comprehend the full mean
ing of the term "hard times" Hence,
farming is the best and surest vocation
for the mass of the people; as general
result it does not lead to wealth and
luxury, but it may certainly insure com
petence, and even abundance. To the
iaded, unfortunate, unsuccessful business
man, there is no prospect that looks so
enticing as that of beautiful farm, we'll

corroding care and life-sapping anxiety
of city business are unknown; a de-
main over which he is king, and where
be may enforce his will undisputed by
any one. The true pleasure of the farm
er's vocation consists in his intimate re
la,ion to nature, and his possession OF
all the rational enjoyments of life.
Why. then, do We hear the complaint
from so large a mass of the farmers that
times are hard p The answer is, they
are in debt. Debt is curse that entails
far greater hardship than the fat which
pronounced the doom of man to till the
soil aud earn his bread by the sweat OF

A Cat That Thinks

On Tuesday last favorite cat was left
in the editors sitting room after all the
family had retired, and was not heard OF
until about twelve o'clock that night,
when il set up most outrageous cater
wauling, arousing the editor and family
from q sound slumber. The noise was
continued for several minutes after we
awoke, and family council was then

with the cat. Twas bitter cold night,
and it was decided that if the cat could
stand it we could-for 8 while, at least
Just then the cat came directly to cur

terrific power sent forth her yowls, &C
companied by scratching on the door.
And thereupon our better half declared
that she would arise and see what the
cat wanted. She did SO, while we stuck
to our bed. Opening the door she found

IT has ever been a wonder why Gov
ernor Houston so ineontinently aban-
doned the gubernatorial chair of Ten
nessee-disappeared from public life so
suddenly. The Galveston Ne,os thus
dissipates the mystery "What we
know about this matter is so honorabl
to him that we shall, for the first time,
put it in print. We may premise that
our information is derived indirectly from
one now deceased, who, during her life,
had right to know what caused that
strange episode in the life of the great
man. Governor Houston's first bride
was a Tennessee belle of surprising
beauty and of considerable social rank.
She was, if not the afianced bride, at
least the sweetheart of neighboring
gentleman when Governor Houston
sought her hand. Her family being
very ambitious, forced the match, and
she was married After retiring to her
bridal chamber her department was such
as to cause him to suspect that while her
hand was his her heart was snother's.
She confessed the truth when interroga-
ted, and while promising fidelity and
wifely duty, declared herself un-
able to love him. He at once retired
from the house. He then resigned his
position and went among the Comauches.
Ia due course of time the lady sought
and obtained a divorce"

Counterfeit Ten-DOIIar Legal
Tender EOles.

The statements which have been gen
orally published of late in reference to
the dangerous counterfeit ten dollar
legal tender notes, it was thought, was
greatly exaggerated. Unfortunately the
truth had not been halftold. When ex-
perienced men are unable TO tell, how
easily tradesmen and the public gener-
ally are liable to be deceived. One OF
the counterfeit notes was sent by the
Cashier of the National Bank of Cohoes.
N. Y, to General Spinner, United States
Treasurer, the letter stating that alter
minute Examination and comparison 1t
was impossible to tell whether 1t was
genuine or counterfeit One of that
series that had never been in circulation
was compared with the one submitted
for examination, and after the most rigid
scrutiny but one flaw was discovered by
which the counterfeit could be distin
guished from the genuine. The only
is to call in all the notes of that
determination Persons suspecting the
geuuinensss of those 10 their possession
will invariably find. the scroll work di
rectIy over the words American Bank

hand corner of the note, is distinct and

while in the counterfeit it is blurred and

. Woman,s Defense of press

For myself, should be thankful to
return to the habits of our grandmothers
buy a bonnet which would do to wear
ten years; have three dresses, two for
every day and one for "nice," and wear
them year after year till they wear out,
without alteration; also twist up my hair
in a plain wad at the back OF my head
I should then have more time for read
ing and study, and more money to spend
in books, pictures, and travelling, to say
nothing of the unlimited time and mon
ey for doing good. And know of very
many women who would be only too
happy to throw aside the wearisome
shackles of fashion. But what would
be the result? With the maiden, no
more beaux; with the wife, cessation of
devotion on the part OF her husband-re-
suits too direful to be contemplated for a
moment. / speak what l know, and
testify what | have seen. have myself
been to parties sensibly and economically
clad, and l was despised and rejected Of
men; again have been more fashionably
and extensively attired, and | had more
beaux than | knew what to do with.
By the way, why don't some of the wise
and sensible bachelors court and marry
among the vast army of working girls ?
They are dressed simple, and are accus
toned to habits ofecouomy. They would
be glad enough of good homes, and would
make excellent wives. They are per
sonally attractive, and, I doubt not, are
quite as refined and Intelligent as the
average of fashionable women. Why Is
wives. and why are not the Flora Nc
Flimseys a drug in the market? Let
the facts speak for themselves. Be not
deceived, ., my brethren With you
lies the fault; from you must come the
remedy-refuse to pay court to silks,
panniers, frills, and chiguons, and we
should go over to calico in battahions.--

AGRICULTURAL.

WE are Indebted to the Kansas Far
nser for the following advice, which we
hope our farmers -ill carefully consid
er and profit by:
The lessons of the past are not well
remembered. Every tew days some new
excitement is raised about the enormous
proESs that are to be made by such and
such crops. or such and such animals.
Our old farmers will remember the ex-
element raised some thirty years ago,
or more, over the silk worm. Every
body was infected by an insane desire to
raise silk. a little later, and an equally
strong propensity was exhibited for
Shanghai chickens. After this came the
sheep fever then the strawberry and
grape excitement; and now we have the
small grain and potato speculations. In
terspersed with the above, We have had
side shows of hops, crapberries, pigs, and
cattle. While these excitements have
lasted, many credulous farmers have
been seduced from their routine of mix
ed crops, aud have yentured their all
upon these new-fangled ideas.
We arc not prepared to condemn these
flights of insanity, although they reflect
somewhat upon our intelligence; but
they have usually resulted in some good
to the country, if not to individuals. We
would advise our farmer friends, howev
er, to hold themselves aloof from these
eIcitements, and cot allow themselves to
be blinded BY any glittering specialities.
Stick to system of mixed crops, for
therein lies your only sure prospect for
making money. If you desire to exper
iment with broom corn or magic hogs.
hops, or fancy oats, do it in such way
as will not destroy all other sources of
making money for the season.
