The most practical way ofrenovating
old pastures is TO plow, crop with grain,
manure and re seed, but us il is not
always desirable to take this course,
top dressing moy be resorted to as the
next best expedient. Strong liquid
manure will keep up and improve grass
lands, and effectually restrain the growth
Of moss. For lawns aud small patches
of pasture this is the best means, to
adopt. As a dry manure, nitrate Of
soda is one Of the best, because it is
readily dissolved and thus placed in the
only available form for appropriation by
the grass roots, in which any fertilizer
can be used by them, aud it likewise
supplies the needed elements. Farm
yard manure, sp'ea on the surface, will
force good growth for single season,
but it is not profitable use for so val.
liable manure. Fresh earth, Or that
made from the decay Of snds, Is one of
the most satisfactory dressings to apply
to old grass land The effect Of earth
alone is remarkable, aud considering
the cost aud the benefit, this material is
most profitable for common use ,--Aa.r-

OH childhood hours are flown, Mary,
Those bright and sunny hours,
When, hand-in-hand, with buoyant heart
We sported midst the flowers,
Or wander'd by the brook, Mary,
Or eambopd DER the green,-
Oh happy, happy childhood hours
fe may NO more be seen
oh We were happy then, Mary,
The earth with beauty tcem'd-
Array'd in hopes prismntic bues
A paradise II seem'd-
The sun more brightly shone, Mary,
The stars were brighter too,
The fields were dock'd in richer green,
The heavens In deeper blue.
Yes, we were happy then, Mary,
Our hearts were free from care,
And innocence and purity
Were ever mirror'd there
The world in hearty shone, Mary,
Its rninbow-tints were bright,
But, clouds soon interyen'd aud hid
Its beauty from our sight.
Oh mem'ry loves to dwell, Mary,
Upon those hours SO dear,
Their cv'ry joyous incident
Is deeply craven there,
And oft we fondly turn, Mary,
From griefs and cares away
To pleasant "reminiscences
or childhood's summer day.
But childhood hours are flown, Mary,
Alas forever fownI
oh would their joys we might recall
And make them still our own,
Then life would sweetIy pass, Mary,

And ev'ry day and ev'ry hour
Some new delight would bring.

Lafitte's Treasures.

Many unsuccessful searches have been
made for the treasure supposed to have
been buried by the pirate Lalitte on
some one Of the islands 10 the Gulf Of
Mexico, some eighty miles from New
Orleans. 0nc OF the pirates men, when
dying gave a family named Newell, who
had befriended him, diagram and
written description of the exact spot
where this horde of wealth was buried
MIR. Newell made three attempts TO
reach the place, but on the first voyage
was shipwrcckcd, on the second his
partner was sunstruck, and on the third
voyage Mr.. Newell himself was taken
suddenly i'll, aud also died But Mr..
Newell had SOP, then a young man
aud a printer working 10 the office Of
the Now Orleans P.cag,ac, who resol-
we'd to try TO accomplish what his father
could not. Therefore, some three years
ago, young Newell fitted out small
vessel and made the voyage to within
sight of the island, slieh violent storm
came on aud his vessel was wrecked.
One year after this he made another at
tempt to reach the island, but was again
wrecked A month ago he fitted up
another vessel, and made a third trial
to obtain lhe golden treasure. A week
ago his lilclcss body was picked up
near tho lligolets floating in the muddy
waters Of Lake Pontchartrain, pcrfor-
ated by two bullet holes. There seems
10 be a singular fatality accompanying
the spot where Lafitte buried his spoils.
Every person who has yet attempted TO
approach that island with the object Of
unearthing his treasures has met sud
deu death.

TINHE ndyan iages Of Life Insurance are so
manifold and manifest that general inquiry
is made concerning it. All good men wish to
provide for those dependant upon them. Pro-
vision TO be certain must be immediate. The
only immediate provision is by Lite Insurance.
great and important question is, where shall
l insure Reason, sell-respect, self-intcrest,
the laws of trade and commerce that govern a
thrifty and intelligent people indicate that a
man should insure at home, where he lives,
makes his money, pays his taxes and expects
to leave his property and his family. 1t is as
humiliating as 1t is ruinous for us to send mil
lions Of dollars out of our State annually for
Life Insurance that should be kept at home.
Money in Maryland-is scarce, interest high, and
property low, because we are sending so much
Of il away. There Is certainly no necessity
for this, because equal intelligence and equal
morals will make Savings Banks, Life and Fire
Insurance Companies, Lawyers, Doctors, Mer-
chants, or anything else, here equal to those in
other States. 1t is an axiom that In all kinds
of business danger, difficulty and loss Increases
in ratio OF distance. Recent experience proves
clearly that il is safer and better in both Life
and Fire to be insured at home. II is poor
compliment to our Citizens and State and in
and indirectly depreciate those who control
them.
Fortunately for our State prosperity the
people are beginning to see this Our last
January report to the Comptroller OF the
State was so satisfactory and gratifying as to
call forth editorial commendations from the
principal papers In Baltimore.
Few companies are in as good condition as
the Maryland, and as it is ours and keeps the
capital in our own State deserves your coop
GRAFTON and patronage. In matter Of so great
Importance persons should inform themselves
well before they act.
