ENCOURAGE YOUR CH1LDREN.-En-
couragement works wonders with al
most everybody, no matter what his
occupation in life may be. A boy
likes to be encouraged so does girl;
man likes it; also woman; and
even the old grandfather and grand
mother have relish for it.
Some parents often make mistake
in not giving their children credit
when they do-a thing well; and some
unintentionally lit lesson that has
been studied very hard, or a piece Of
work that has been we'll done, by a
boy or girl, pass by without the least
notice. This discourages child, and
las bad effect otherwise.
Encouragement puts new life in a
child, especially if it be bestowed by
parent. Yet there are people, who
though anxious to have their chill
dren do well, are continually. and in
a dispiriting way, telling them that
they shouldn't do SO and so, and that
that is wrong, etc. without ever hav.
ing little friendly talk with them,
and giving them good advice, and
encouraging them when they do right.
Some parents also make mistake
in leaving the education of their chill
dren wholly to the schools. They
think II they send their children to
school. anil pay their way, that they
the parents-are doing their part,
and that their children should do
theirs. This may work very well
with good boys, but with the careless,
the thoughtless and the Indifferent it
does not work W I'll.

superior to gas. Burns in any lamp
without danger Of exploding or taking
fire. Manufactured expressly to displace
the use of volatile and dangerous oils.
Its safety under every possible test, and

ling it.
The immense yearly loss to life and

HoW Five Bales Of Cotton We're
Produced on enc acre

Editors iSandersrills Herald: Ac-
cording to promise and for the farm
ing public, I herewith append a brief
and correct account of the preparing,
manuring and cultivation Of my acre
of cotton grown this season.
The soil is sandy with clay subsoil.
Has been in cultivation for 60 or 80
years, ! suppose. About half of the
acre was an old dung Ill. the other
hall very poor before manuring. The
guano used was Kettlewell's A. A /,
or Phosphate Peruvian, l ,40opounds;
raw pine straw, from the woods, 60
ox-cart loads; green cotton seed. go
bushels; stable manure we'll rotted,
400 bushels.
The pine straw, cotton seed and
stable manure l hauled ont in Janud-
ry, and strewed broadcast over the
land, then turned under with a two
horse plough. breaking eight inches
deep. Then with a sixteen inch scoot-
er run in the same furrow. breaking
from. FIVE to seven inches; in the whole
thirteen to fifteen inches deep. l
then followed in the scooter furrow
with the guano or subsoil furrow, so
on, till completed. In February I
repeated the breaking in the same
manner, ! aving off manuring. In
March the same again, breaking each
time cross.wise or in opposite direc-
ton. In April l narrowed the land
twice, to level the soil and destroy
the young vegetation. Then l check
ed off my rows three feet each way,
with small bull-tongue plough, and
on the 18th day of May | planted
my cotton seed in the hill, 6 or 8 seed
dropped by hand and covered with
the feet. The seed when covered be-
ing on level. The seed were the
"Cluster Cotton" variety. pur-
chased them from David Dickson,
ESQ.,, Oxford, Ca, to whom l must
confess am indebted for my success
to certain extent. The seed l am
confident were half the battle. The
cotton was thinned to one stalk to
the hillin June, xith exception of the
outside rows in which / left two
stalks. Then I plowed with "a
inch sweep, "Dickson's," very shall
low, one furrow to the row, just scra-
ping the earth enough to destroy the
young weeds and grass. Did not use
a hoe in it, in order to avoid skinning
the cotton, in fact had no use for any,
as the cotton grew so fast the shade
thereof prevented all vegetation from
growing underneath.
Very respectfully,
T. G. WARTHEN.

A Terrible Predicament.

Max Adeler youches for the truth
of the following:
Simmer really deserves pity, for
it was certainly rough on him. He
was going up TO Reallng the other
day, and when hs reached tLe depot,
he happened to look into the ladles
room. A woman sat there with q lot
of baggage and three children, and
when she saw Simmer she rushed at
him., and before he could defend him
self she flung her arms about his
neck, nestled her head upon his breast
and burst into tears. Simmer was
amazed, indignant, confounded; and
ere he could lind utterance for his
feelings, she exclaimed 20. Henry
dear Henry We are united at last.
Are you we'll? Is Aunt Martha still
alive? Haven't you longed to see
your own Louisa?" And she looked
into SINNERS face, and clung to him,
and smiled through her tears.
Madam" said be, solemnly, ii
I am the person alluded 10 as Hen
ry, permit me to say that you have
made mistake. My name is Lemu-
ell; I have no Aunt Martha, and /
don't. own a solitary Louisa. Oblige
me by letting go my coat. 1t excites
remark.
Then she buried her bonnet deeper
into his waistcoat. and began to cry
harder than ever, and said: 20, Hen
ry, how-how can you treat me so?
How can you pretend that you are
not my husband?"
MADAM" screamed Simmer, "if
you do not cease sopping my shirt
bosom and remove your umbrella from
my corn, I shall be obliged to call
the police"
"The children are here" she per-
sisted. "They recognized their dear
father. Do you not, children
eyes, yes" they exclaimed. ut
is pat is our dear pa" And they
grappled Simmer by the trousers
leg and hung 70 his coat tail.
Woman" he shrieked, "this is
getting serious. Unhand me, I say :"
And he tried to disengage himself
from her embrace, and all the brake
men, and the baggage master, and the
newshoys stood around and said his
conduct was infamous. In the midst
Of the struggle a stranger entered
with carpet-bag.
BE looked exactly like Simmer;
and when he saw his wife in Slim
mer's arms he became excited, and
he Hoored Simmer with that carpet
bag, and sat on him, and smote his
nose, and caromed on his head, and
asked him what he meant.
Simmer was removed on stretch
er, and the enemy went off i'll cab.
lie called next day to apologize. His
wife made mistake because OF Slim
mer's likeness to him. And now
Simmer wishes he may soon be kick
ed in the face by mule, so that he
will resemble no other human being
on earth.

Prot. Ydrdly Warner, Superinten-
dent of the Freedmen's Schools west
of the AlIeghanies, was in town on
Friday last and visited the Ne,cs
Office. He is evidently a gentleman
of rare capacity for the great work he
has in hand, and is most thoroughly
in earnest in its performance. The
school which he has founded In Bris-
toll, for the colored children is great
charity and is we think very ably con-
Quoted. In the town of MaryvllIe.
Tenn. he is erecting large brick
building to be used as a normal Agri-
cultural and Mechanical School for
colored persons. The system is evil
IDENTIFY very fine, each one being
taught to labor, without which none
are received or retained. Wages are
graduated according to the number of
hours of labor performed. We hope
he will continue his labors in this
field and we would be very glad if the
work at this point could speedily ripen
into such an institution as has been
founded at Maryville.
