A DINNER EXCUSE.

Apologies for poor dinners are generally
out of place. But when a lady has for
getful husband, who without warning brings
home dozen guests to sit down to plain
family dinner for three or four, it is not in
human nature to keep absolute silence.
What to say, and how to say it, form the
problem. co. .-s.-5....-.
Mrs. Tucker, the wife of Judge Tucker,
of Williamsburg, solved this problem MAN.
years ago. She was the daughter or niece
q am uncertain wbich) of Sir Peyton Skip
with, and celebrated for her beauty, wit,
ease, and grace of manner. Her temper
and tact were put to the proof one court
day, when the Judge brought with him the
accustomed half score or more of LAWYERS,
for whom not the slightest preparation had
been made, the Judge having quite forgot
ten to remind his wife that it was court day
and she herself, strange to tell, having over
looked the fact.
The dinner was served with elegance, and
Mrs. T. made herself very charming. Up.
on rising to leave the guests to their wine,
she said: "Gentlemen, you have dined TO-
day with Judge Tucker; promise me, now,
that you will all dine tomorrow with me-
This was all her apology, whereupon the
gentlemen swore that such wife was be-
yond price. The Judge explained the sit
uation, and the next day there was noble
banquet.

IMPROVED USE OF STABLE MA
NURE.

Mr.. Won Horskyfeld, the owner Of large
landed estates in Bohemia, has since 1854
introduced a method of treating the accu-
mulating stable manure which differs from
the usual process, and for which he claims
many advantages, viz: economy OF time,
space, feed and bedding, a great saving of
money, and of hands, and no necessity for
such contrivances as cellars, tanks, pumps,
ETC.; also, far better product, no loss &C.
curing from evaporation and rot; and fin
ally, a decided improvement in the condi-
ton of the cattle yards, which never show
any trace of manure, either solid or liquid.
He says all these favorable resultr
are obtained in the following way:
The manure is not removed fuom
the stable until it reaches the height Of five
feet; the straw for bedding is cut into
lengths of about FIVE inches, and thus more
readily sbsorbs the liquid portion, and facil-
itates the distribution of manure in the fur
rows. The entire mass is constantly COM
pressed by the weight Of animals, and there
by kept moist, while air and consequent
putrefaction are excluded. After about
three months this manure is carried to the
field and Immediately covered in the fur
rows, where it readily decomposes aud
yields all its strength to the soil, fully double
! its usual value, according to Mr.. Won Hors-
kyfield's experience. Besides this, the air
ia the stables is never tainted by exhslstions
injurious to the health of the cattle.

CUCUMBEHs ON TRELLIsEs.

Wherever we go we see the cucumber in
the open air suffered to run on the ground.
This is, no doubt, relic of European cul-
ture. There it is necessary. The climate
is not hot enough, and the plants have to be
started, if not grown altogether in low fiat
glass frames. But where the cucumber
grows wild, it spreads over bushes and
trees, and the growth and product is enor-
NOUS. All plants with tendrils prefer to
ramble in this way. The grapevine, it is
well known. seems fairly to rejoice when
it can find large mass of twiggy brush to
ramble over Us it wills; aud so does the Gu
cumber. No one who has not tried, can
have any idea of the luxuriant growth of a
cucumber when trained to stake which
had set of stubby side branches left along
its length. Some, which the writer saw,
might be taken at distance for some Wig
orous kind of ornamental gourd-and the
crOp was enormous.

sALrFf,R PEARTREES.

Sailing round pear trees, to prevent the
blight, is becomi ng general practice. From
four hundred IT, six hundred pounds to the
acre are reguE lrly applied each year, with
satisfactory results. A correspondent writes
as follows on this subject:
Last spring / put small shovelful Of
refuse material from the salt works-which
is compose 3, I believe, of salt, lime aid ash
made very thrifty growth, and the leaves
are all free from blight or spot, and have a
very glossy, healthy look; while others Of
the same lot, manured with barn-yard
manure, have grown but little, and the
foliage is spotted and dull. Now, II no i'll
effect can be attributed to the barn-yard
manure, it would seem that the difference in
these trees was owing to the salt.

FISH CULTURE NOTES.

Al The last meeting of the American
Fish Culturists: Assn, Hon. HOrAtio Sey-
mour suggested that efforts be made TO in
troduce Chinese, and other foreign fish, in
this country. A committee of three was
appointed to consider the subject.
The fish that are deemed most favorable
for stocking the general waters Of The lakes
and streams of New York, and other Mid
die States, are: Wall-eyed Pike, oswego
Bass, White Fish, Yellow Perch, Rock Bass
and Black Bass.

The zost ssCify Of Boston''-An

From the Detroit Free Press.

M Old I.ady's Hope.
From the Detroit Free Press.
There are several residents of Detroit
whose friends took passage on the missing
City of Boston, which went down to her
ocean grave in such a mysterious manner
that her fate has never been ascertalned.
Although so long time has elapsed since
the steamer was given up, there are those
here who have the strongest faith that a.
least some of the passengers were cast away
on some shore or island, and will some day
make their escape to tell the sad story.
One of these is woman of sixty, whose
manly and promising son was one OF the
passengers. She has subscribed for Bos-
ton paper for no other reason than that she
thinks the press Of that city viii be The
first to receive news of the ship. As regu-
larry as the paper is received she opens 1t
in the hope that her sons fate may be ex-
planned, and disappointment only engend-
ers new hope. His plate is kept at the ia
BILE, and to almost every friend who
calls the mother says: 81 have not heard
from William yet, but hope to this week"
The neighbors feel that the hope is the on
ly sunlight of her lie, and encourage her
in it. No one but q mother could hope
thus against all the rest of the world, and
none but mothers heart would continue
so faithful through sll the long months
since the missing steamer, so heaVliy
freighted with human souls, plunged down
to her deep-sea grave, or was beaten to pie
ces on the rocks of some for5iddiDg shore.

SALT AND ASHES FoR cows.

A wise and experienced stock raiser says:
"On turning my cows into pasture in the
spring, / provide several small tubs, and
having fixed them firmly in the son to pre-
vent them being, overturned, put into
each tub one quart Of salt and three quarts
of sifted wood ashes, previously well mixed
by stirring. The cows partake freely of
this mixture, 1t prevents injury from the
sudden change from dry TO green food, and
has, besides, a most invigorating effect upon
the general system. Some assert that salt
should be given only as often as once q
week, as its more frequent use would be
injurious. But when supplied in this way
no apprehension eed be entertained.o

sPEEDY GRoyyTH OF RADrsHEs

The acclimalization Society OF Palermo
teaches that rsdishes may be obtained at
any season, and very quickly, ! the follow
log manner: The seed is to be first soaked
for tweDty-four hours, and then placed 10
bags and exposed to the sun. They will
begin to terminate in about twenty-four
hours and are then to be SGT in box filed
with well MANFRED earth, and moistened
from time to time with lukewarm water.
In five or six days the radishes will attain
the size of small onion. To grow radish-
es in the winter tie box is to be placed in a
warm cellar, cove red with top, and the
earth moistened from day to day with luke
warm water.

From the numeFols successful expert
ments made by the application of gypsum,
it is quite evident that the sulphuric acid
and the lime contained in it are highly ia
vorable to the growth of the potato. They
tend to keep the po alto from rottening, as
many fields have given sound crops when
dressed with gypsum, while others in the
immediate neighborhood have been injured.
Indeed, on the same field, where gypsum
was omitted, the rot occurred, and when
applied, the crop was not affected. The
usual mode of application is to scatter a
single handful about the seed in the hill.
Several distinguished chemists found that
the presence of gypsum retarded putrefac-
ton. Liebis contends that the nature of
gypsum consists in lie giving fixed consti-
tuition to the nitrogen or ammonia, which
is brought into the sol, and is indispenss-
Die for the nutriment of plants. He says
that 100 pounds of gypsum give as much
ammonia as $3.50 pounds of horses urine
would yield. -
Gypsum is a cheap article, is easily ap-
piled, and its use on the potato, and espec-
Tally on the grass crops, ought to become
more general,

Gypsum FOR POTATOES.

An early potato crop is source of large
income and fair profit. The potatoes are
planted as early as April, and the sell can
be made fit to receive them, and taken to
market when they are sufficiently large for
the table, whether ripe or not. Some of
the earliest are sent in the latter part of
July, and the bulk of them in August.
This is the harvest season for this crop.
The demand for them at that period is al
ways quick, and at paying price. Under
these circumstances, it is an object for the
farmer 30 get the crop matured at the earli-
est moment, as one bushel in July will
usually fetch as much,as two bushels will
in September. In order to secure this,
various plans are adopted to start them
early, such as sprouting them in baskets by
the kitchen stove, or placing them in shell
tered and sunny places on layers of horse
manure, until the germ has pushed out a
fourth of an inch, when they are carefully
planted. After thorough preparation of
the soil, no application of what is termed
special manure, seems to have 50 favorable
an influence on potatoes, as that Of gypsum
or the common plaster Of paris. Gypsum
