AN old ANECDOTE.

It is related of Randolph that,
during a horseback ride through the
State of Virginia, he was annoyed
by the impertinent questions of the
Keeper of wayside inn at which he
put up. He chaffed during the
vening at the annoyance, but with
the aid Of philosophy and an occa-
sional hot slang he avoided making
any disturbance before he went to
bed. In the morning the landlord
again piled his questions, which
Randolph submitted to until he had
paid his bill.
(Which way do you go, sir ?"
said the inquisitive tormentor, as
the statesman of Roanoke was
mounting his horse to depart.
"Do I owe you anything ?" he re-
piled. Have I not paid my bills p
"Yes," answered the landlord
promptly.
"Then,' said Randolph, "it's none
of your id business which way I
CO."
Saying which, he put spurs to his
horse-as usual with horsemen, 1
believe-and galloped away. Before
going many yards he came to the
forks of two roads-one road led to
the right, the other to the left.
Being at a loss to know which one
to take, he halooed back to the
landlord, who was still standing at
the door, inquiring which road to
take.
"Mr. Randolph" yelled the land
lord in reply, "you don't owe me a
cent-take whichever road you
id please !"

The art of not hearing is fully as
important to domestic happiness as
cultivated ear, for which so much
time and money is expended. There
are SO many things which is painful
to hear, many of which, if heard,
will disturb the temper and detract
from contentment and happiness,
that every one should be educated
to take in or shut out sounds at
will. If a man falls into a violent
passion and calls me all manner of
names, the first word shuts my
ears, and I hear no more. Ifin my
quiet voyage Of life I am caught in
one of those. domestic whirlwinds
of scolding, I shut my ears, as a
sailor would furl his sail, and,
making all tight, scud before the
gale. If a hot and restless man
begins to infame my feelings, I
consider what mischief these sparks
might do in the magazine below
where my temper is kept, and in
stantly close the door. Does a CAD
ding, misunderstanding fellow begin
to inform me what people are say
ing about Inc, down drops the port
cullis of my ear, and he cannot get
in any farther. Some people feel
very anxious to hear everything
that will vex or annoy them, they
set about searching and finding it
out. If all the petty things said of
one by the needless or illnatured
idlers were to be brought home to
him, he would become a mere walk
ing pin-cushion, stuck full of sharp
remarks. 1 should as soon thank q
man for emptying on my head a
bushel of nettles, or setting loose o
swarm of mosquitoes in my cham
Der, or raising a pungent dust in
my house generally, as to bring
upon me all the tattle of spiteful
people. If you would be happy
when among good men, open your
ears; when among bad, shut them.
1t is not worth while to hear what
your servants say when they have
slammed the door; what a beggar
says whose petition you have re-
jected; what your neighbors say
about your children; what your
rivals say about your business or
dress. / have noticed that a we'll
bread woman never hears an imper-
tinent remark. A kind of discreet
deafness saves one from many in
suits, from much blame, from not a
little apparent connivance in dis
honorable conversations.

Regularity IN FEEDING SToCK.-Thc
following account of the mode of feed
ing stock by a Massachusetts, dairyman,
we copy from the Boston Farmer:
All feelings are regulated by a
clock placed in the barn for the guild
ance of the person having the cattle in
charge About 7. 30 a. m, the first fOd-
dering is given, which consists Of the
usual amount of hay, givenat time.
As soon as the cattle have eaten this, a
second fOddering is given, and then a
bird; this completes the amount for the
morning feeding. The cattle are then
watered and returned to the barn. Roots
or meal can now be fed, but the mistake
should never be made of feeding those
before watering, as the roots would con-
siderably diminish that thirst for water
which is necessary for the health of the
cattle, while many would refuse to drink
altogether. Nothing more should be
given until 80 in the afternoon, that
the cattle may have time during this in
terval to digest their morning meal and
get a little rest for their digestive or
gans before they are. allowed to eat
more. Then feed three times and water
as before, which will take till or $50.
This constitutes the order for each day,
but care should be taken that these six
fodderings should be given at the prop
er time If you chance to have any hay
of poor quality, it may be given at the
first foddering, when it will be eaten
with great relish, so well are their stom-
achs regulated. 1t is but a change, and
of as much value, when fed occasional
ly, as the best English hay. Roots are
of great value to cattle in winter, and
are necessary to keep them in healthy
condition. No farmer should ever I'M
dertake to winter herd of cattle with
out a supply. Never allow your cattle
to go without chance to obtain water
twice each day, since none of our do
mestic animals are constituted to stand
thirst for any great period of time.
When they do not get chance to drink
