Aunt TABITHA.
BY OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.

Whatever do and whatever say,
Aunt Tabitha tells me that isn't the way
When she was girl forty summers ago.,
Aunt Tabitha tells me they never did so.
Dear aunt If only would take her advice
But like my own way, and find it so nice
And besides / forget half the things am told
But they all will come back to me-when I am
old
II youth passes by, it may happen, no doubt,
He may chance to look in as | chance to look
out;
is horrid, she says, and mustn't sit there.
A walk in the moonlight has pleasure, own,
But it isn't quite safe to be walking alone;
So take lads arm Gust for safety, you know
But Aunt Tabitha tells me they didn't do so.
How wicked we are and how good they were
They kent at arms length those delectable men;
What an era of virtue she lived in But stay
Were the men all such rogues inAunt Tabitha's
day?
How he dared to propose to my darling mamma;
Was he like the rest Of them? Goodness who
knows
And what shall say. if a wretch should pro-
pose?
[ am thinking if Aunt knew so little OF sin;
What a wonder Aunt Tabitha's aunt must have
been
ingly sad
That we girls of to-day are SO frightfully bad
A martyr will save u.s. and nothing else can;
Let me perish-to rescue some wrctched young
man
Though when to the altar victim | 60,
Aunt Tabithal II tell me she never did sol

dickens and His Characters.

Mr. Jas t. Fields has recently issued a
book entitled " Yesterdays with Authors
published by Jas. r.. Osgood & Co. 1t con-
tains many interesting conversations Mr..
Fields had with prominent authors, and
among them we find the following with
Dickens. They were walking together
and Dickens said that during the connpO-
sition of his first stories lie could never
entirely dismiss the characters about whom
he happened to be writing; that while
the Old Curiosity Shop was in process
of composition Little Nell followed him
about everywhere; that while he was
writing Oliver Twist" Pagan the jew
would never let him rest, even in his
most retired moments; that at midnight
and in the morning, on the sea and on
the land, Tiny Tim and Little Bob Cratch-
It were ever Juggling at his coat-sieeve, as
if impatient for him to get back to his
desk and continue the story of their lives.
But he said after he had published several
books, and saw what serious demands his
characters were accustomed to make for
the attention OF his already over-tasked
brain, he resolved that the phantom of in
dlvlduals should no longer intrude on his
hours OF recreation and rest, but that when
he closed the door Of his study he would
shut them all in and only meet them again
When he came back TO resume his task
That force of win with which he was so
pre-eminently endowed enabled him TO
ignore these manifold existences till he
chose TO renew their acquaintance. He
said also, that when the children of his
brain had once been launched, free and
clear Of him, into the world, they would
sometimes turn up in the most unexpect
manner to look their father III the face.

Stock Raising-Jersey Cattle.

On the coast of France there are three
small islands-Jersey, Guernsey and AL
derney. They are called the Channel
Islands. The cattle on these, particularly
on the Island of Jersey, which is the larg-
est of thethree, has been kept pure, with
out any admiXture of foreign cattle, for
near eighty years. The law of the island
forbids, under the penalty of a forfeiture
of the animal, and its slaughter for beef,
the importation or Introduction of any
foreign cattle into the territory. In this
way their peculiar race of cattle has been
kept pure.
They are distinguished for their small
size soft, silken skin great gentleness;
beautiful head and neck clear limbs; re-
markably rich milk, and its wonderful
butter producing qualities. So rich and
yellow is their milk that one or two Jer-
sey cows, in large herd of common cows,
will impart a rich color to the milk of ali
when mixed. The butter made from their
milk sells in all our large cities at from
twenty-five to one hundred per cent.
more than the common butter. The
amount of butter obtained from given
quantity of milk is much greater than
that fromour native COWS. They are re-
markably easily kept and milk long
time: Ina word, no butter maker now
and but few private families, who are able
and who wish the luxury of rich cream
and golden butter, in our Northern States,
would think of being without one or more
beautiful Jerseys. The demand for them
is said, by the Americdn Farmer, to be
greater by greater number of persons
than for any other of the improved breeds
Cargo after cargo is imported into the
United States, and yet the more that
come, the more wide spread and
eager is the demand for them. This
demand has just fairly reached East Ten
nessee, or rather is just beginning to man
| fest Itself. / know of four Jersey bulls
which have been introduced in the last
eight or ten months, and one or two cows.
l hear of others who intend introducing
three this year. So we may safely rely on
seeing plenty of them soon. When our
farmers find out how much superior these
cows are, for butter making, to the native
cows, the demand will be greatly augment
ed. That fhey are superior, / submit the
! following facts, taken from the American
Jersey Herd Book, and from otherauthen-
Three pure Jersey cows three grade
cows and three native cows, all in about

ty of milk was required from each:
