Boy Lest.

Here Is a beautiful, tender thought
ampIified with all the feeling Of genu,
inc originality, indeed so pure and
effortless that we feel it a duty 10 send

"IIe had black eyes, with long LASH
es, red checks and hair almost black
and curly. He wore crimson plaid

ask questions; was accompanied by

now since he disappeared. l have a
very pleasant house and much com
pany. My guests say "Ah it is
pleasant TO be here. Everything has
such an orderly, put-away look-noth-
ing about under foot, no dirt.' But
my eyes are aching for the sight OF
whittIings and cut paper on the floor;
of tumbling down card houses of
wooden sheep and cattle; OF pop guns,
bows and arrows, whips, tops, ,go-carts,
blocks and trumpery. / want to see
boats a rigging, and kites a-making
want to see crumbles on the carpet,
and paste split On the kitchen table, |
want 10 see the chairs and table turned
the wrong way about. l want to see
candymaking and corn-popping, and
TO find iack-knives and fish hooks
among my muslins. Yet these things
used TO fret me once. They say -
"How quiet you are here All one
here may settle his brains and be at
peace" But my ears are aching for
the pattering of little feet, for hearty
shout, shrill whistle, a gay tra-la Ia.
for the crack of little whips for the
noise Of drums, flies, and tin trumpets.
Yet these things made me nervous
once. a manly figure stands before
me now. He is taller than /, has thick
whiskers, wears frock coat, bosomed
shirt and crayat. He has Just come
from college. He brings Latin and
Greek in his countenance, and busts
OF the old philosophers for the sitting
room. He calls me mother, but l am
rather unwilling to own him. He
AYERS that he is my boy, and says
that he can prove it. He brings his

Oh! wish he were little, tired boy,

Ny mothers voice! How often creers
It's eadence DER my lonely hours,
Like healing sent on wings OF Sleep,
Or CeW 20 the unconscious flowers.
I might forget her melting prayer,
When pleasures pulses madIy fly,
But in the still, UubrOken afr,
Her gentle tones come stealing By
And years OF siuand manhood lice,
AID find me a. my mothers knee.
: have been out a. eveatICe,
Beneath the uoonlit sky OF spring,
When earth was garnished like a bride,
And night had on her silver wing.
When bursting buds and diamond grass
And waters leapins TO the light.
And all that makes the pulses pass
With wilder feetness thronged the night
when ali was beauteous, thsn have !,
With friends on whom ny love Is dung
Like myrrh on winds OF Araby,
Gazed Up where evenings lamp IS hung.
And when the beautcous spirit there
Flung over all its golden chain,
Ny mothers voice came on the air
Like the light dropping Of the rain;
And resting ons sOme silveFstar - ss--A !.
The spirit OF a bended knee,
I've poured deep and ferveut PRAYER
That our eternity might be
To rise in heaven, like stars ~ night,
And tread a living path Of light.

CULTIVATION OF FISH IN DITCHKs
AND PoNDs.-Much attention is now
being paid in Germany to the cultiva-
ton OF fish in ponds and bitches, and
it has been found, contrary to the
generally received opinion in reference
TO such localities, that :hey are more
favorable for the purpose than other
large bodies OF water, apparently fresh
and pure IN their character. This is
doubtless owing to the great abund.
ance Of animal life, as well as to the
more decided concentration of yegeta-
be substances in the form of living
plants of different kinds, including the
alsa. This produces a constant evolu-
ton of oxygen needed for the respira
of the fish, and allows larger mass Of
lie TO be crowed together in a given
space The reproduction of the species
Is also unusually rapid, and the young
grow very quickly.

From All Wool, June II, 1871
What kind of Sheep shall we
Raise?

This is a question that is often asked
US, and it is one that is hard to answer
We cannot designate any particular
breed of sheep that would be most
profitable for the farmers of this coun-
ty to raise, from the fact that all grades
of wool find a market. Considering the
variety and styles of goods to be man
ufactured, it is necessary that all the |
different grades of wool be produced to
meet the demand, each manufacturer
selecting the grade that is best adapted
to the style of goods he manufactures.
1t does not matter so much which one
of the many improved breeds, of sheep
is raised, or whether two or more of
these breeds be crossed, as it does the
way the sheep are cared for, and the
manner in which the wool is handled !;
yet We would advise farmers to avoid
extremes in grade, for many of the full
blooded Spanish sheep that have been
brought into this country are very un-
profitable in consequence of the weight
of grease in the fleece, compared to the
wool when cleaned. Also, the carcass
is very small, and more subject to dis,
ease than when crossed with our more
hardy sheep. On the other hand, there
are coarse, hairy sheep that are occa-
sionally found in the focks in this
county that are very improbable from
the fact that the fleece is very light,
there beingg no wool on their head,
legs or belly, and that upon the back
being very thin aud too coarse to be
manufactured into wooden goods, and
must be bought at price far below
ordinary wool to avoid loss to the
buyer. Our opinion is that a farmer
should raise the breed OF sheep that
is best adapted to his location, for
while perhaps all viii do well on high
rolling land, some will do better on fiat,
wet land than others. Consequently it
Is necessary for farmer to take his To-
cation into consideration, then with the
best advice he can get on the subject,
exercise his judgment as to which will
be the most profitable breed for him
to raise, carefully avoiding the too fire.
quent error of overstocking the farm.
More failures in sheep-raising have aris-
en- from this error than any other. Fifty
sheep well kept, are more profitable
than one hundred that are left to shift
