DIp NOT SUIcIDE.-A prominent citi-
zen Of Decatur county, Illinois, has, in
these degenerate days, fallen into habits
o. intoNcation. His poor wife had cur
tain-lectured, entreated, scolded, threat
ened, coaxod, but with no avail. The
other night he came home late, shocking
ly demoralzed, His patient spou Sc put
cold water appliances to his head and
face, and after reducing him to a state
of semi-sobricty, proceeded to inform him
that she could no longer endure his vile
habits ; that il he did not cease drinking
she would leave him forever. He seemed
to be very much affected ; he said that he
knew that liquor was the curse ofhis life,
etc, that he could not overcome its indu-
ence, bnt that rather than be tho cause
of her unhappiness, he would put an end
to his existence by drowning himself in
the we'll. Before She could restrain him
he rushed out of doors, rs ii to carry his
threat into execution, but Selling a con-
the well, causing great splash-and has
tily hid behind some gooseberry bushes
at the rear Of the garden, to await further
developments.
The wife, in dire distress, fed shrick-
ing into the street, aroused the ncighbors,
and after communicating the appalling
news Of suicidal attempt, fell tainting to
the ground A crowd surrounded the
wcll-curb, and n horny-handed son OF
toll was let down in bucket by means
Of rope and windlass. As he neared
the kog-thc night was very dark-he
kept exclaiming :" | hear him." "Now |
see him." He's all right" "I'll have
him in a minute" etc. just at the high
est pitch Of excitement, our tipsy friend
walked lazily up to the group, and said
Hello boys, hows all the folks ? Any
body lost anything in the well ?" The
men in their amazement rclinquishod
their hold of the windlass, and the man
in the bucket sank beneath the wave with
astonishing celebrity. lie was subsequent
y drawn up wet and swearing, and the
moment he touched his native soil h,
proceeded to give our practical joker {
severe chastiscment, in which pastime hC
was rendered valuable assistance by the
wife, who had recovered from her faint
ing fit. The devotce Of Bacchus says he
won't throw nail kegs in the well any
more.

A CURIOUS discovery has recently bee

A CURIOUS discovery has recently been
made public in France in regard to the
culture Of vegetables and fruit trees. By
watering with ,ulphate Of iron the most
wonderful fecundty has been attained.
Pear trees and beans which have been
submitted to this treatment have nearly
doubled in the Size Of their productions,
and noticeable improvement has been
remarked in their flavor. Dr. Becourt
reports that, while at the head Of an es-
tablishmen at Eughein, or the sulphur
Gus springs, he had the gardens and
plantations connected with it watered du-
ring several weeks OF the early spring
with sulphurous water, and that not only
the plantations prospered to remarka-
BILE extent, but flowers acquired pecul-
lar brilliancy of coloring and healthy as
pect which attracted universal attention.

OLD LErTERs.-Never burn kindly
written letters it is so pleasing to read
them over when the ink is brown, the
paper is yellow with age, and the hands
that traced the friendly words be folded
over the hearts that prompted them, un-
der the green sod. Above all, never
burn love letters. To read them in after
years is like resurrection to ones youth.
The elderly spinster finds in the impas-
stoned offer she foolishly rejected twenty
years ago fountain Of rejuV
Gancing over it, she realizes that she
was once belle and beauty, and be-
holds her former self in mirror much
more congenial to her tastes than the one
that coulronts her in her dressing room.
The "wiClow indeed " derives Il sweet
and solemn consolation from letters OF
the beloved one who has jomneyod be-
there comes no message, and where she
hopes one day to join him. No photo
graphs can so wildly recall TO the mem
ory OF the mother the tenderness and de-
votion ol The children who have left at
the call Of heaven, as the epistolary out
pourings OF their love. The letter Of IA
true son or daughter to true mother is
something better than an image Of the
features it is a reflex Of the writer's soul.
Keep all loving letters. Burn only the
harsh ones, and in burning them forget
and forgive them.

THERE has always been spirited COM
petition for the proud eminence Of the
meanest man in the world, and no deci-
sion has ever been reached. When one
aspirant has made noble effort that
seemed to command the palm Of victory,
another would enter the lists, and wither
hi, laurels by transcending achievement.
But the pretensions Of II man residing at
Newburyport, Mass, will be recognized.
A short time ago this mans father, an
e,timablo gentleman Of 80 years, went
to visit him. The old entleman took
with him a small dog, which had been
his pet and companion in his declining
years. The son objected to this dog be-
cause it cost him nearly a cent day to
feed him during his fathers visit. There
upon the noble and aftectionate son went
to the authorities and made complaint
against his father for that he had an un-
licensed dog. The old man was arrested
and fined $40 and having no money, he
was taken to jail, where he remained at
accounts, while the son goes proudly on
the even tenor Of his way.

THE GRAVE.

How dark the shadows lie
Around the tomb,
How sweet the hopes that die
Within its gloom.
We gaze with breaking hearts
Upon that mound,
We cannot see for tears
The light beyond.
The shadow Of the Cross
Falls darl>ly there,
Filling with awful fear
The silent air.
What breaks upon my sight,
Dispelling tear
The glory Of the Christ
Abideth here.
Oh, jesus Son Of Mary,
In the quiet tomb,
Thou hast left thy garments,
To light the gloom.

A Few NEEDED SMALL, THINGS. -
There are great many farms that are
supplied with the best of all kinds of
large field implements, such as reapers
and mowers, horse-rakes, horse pitch
forks, ,hay-loaders, gang and single pIows,
cultivators, planters, harrows, markers,
and so on through the list, but yet you
cannot find about them many little con-
veniences, trifing so far as cost is con-
cerned, that save time and labor, and do
away with many of the vexations that
beset the craft. How many farms are
well supplied with ladders for fruit-pick-
ing, mounting the house or barn, or with
stepladders for inside use? The garden,
or even the canal wheelbarrow are not
found with any great frequency, yet they
are exceedingly convenient at most sea-
sons of the year. The wagon-j jack is an
other little thing that finds a welcome
place in the considerate farmers hands.
The farm scale should not be forgotten,
neither should the kit of carpenters
tools, including plane or two, saws,
chisels, etc. We only enumerate a few
of the Inany little articles or tools not
often found but always needed, and call
upon readers to fill out the list with all
the smaller contrivances they have in
vented, or whose usefulness has been
proven by Others Another thing, when
purchasing these things always get the
best; they may cost a little more at the
start, but their durability more than re-
pays. When got, beware of the borrow
er. Choose your customers in this re-
sDect

ALUM.-It is well known, says an Aus
tralian paper, that alum dissolved is
very effective in clearing muddy water.
But short time since some alum was
applied i'll a manner which, from its
novelty and valuable results, is worthy
of notice. In a place where water is
scarce at present little alum was dis
solved in hot water and thrown into a
tub of soapsuds. In a moment the
soap curdled, and, accompanied by the
muddy PARTICLES, sank to the bottom,
leaving the water perfectly clear, pure
and devoid of smell The water was
found very useful for washing clothing
again, when poured of the sediment.
A similar result was attained in a quick
manner by filling a boiler with soapsuds,
placing it Oh fire and throwing bit of
alum into it. When the suds boiled the
scum went over and left the water clear.
soft, and as useful for washing clothes as
it had originally been.

HOME CARPENTRY:-Very often a
screw hole gets so worn that a screw
will not stay in. When glue is handy,
the regular carpenter makes the hole
larger and CLUES in large plug, making
a nest for an entirely new hole. But
this is not always the case, and people
without tools, and in an emergency,
often have to fix The thing at once. Gen
orally leather is used but this is so hard
that it does not hold well. The best of
all things is to cut narrow strips of cork,
and fill the hole completely. Then force
the screw in. This will make as tight
Job as If driven into an entirely new hole.

Drill Sowing Wheat.

Every years experience is. IN favor of
that, as against sowing the seed broad
cast, it Is economical in labor and seed,
and gives better crop. The difference
in labor j. al least 81. 90 an acre, or the
cost Of txo harrowings after sowing, or
one cultivating. The difference in
seed is at least half a bushel, or fifty
cents to one dollar an acre, aud the diff
ference in the crop is fully one-fourth,
or,upon fairly good soil, six bushels, or
nine dollars per acre Eleven dollars
per acre upon ten acres, will more than
pay for the best drill made, which will
sow ten acre day. But if the means
of purchasing a drill are not available,
and there are less than ten acres Of
wheat to be sown, it will yet pay 10 hire
a drill, which may be done from some
neighbor, fortunate enough to possess
one, for fifty cents per acre. We have
not yet seen a part of the country where
a drill could not be purchased or hired,
and very few fields upon which drill
could not be used, if the ground was
properly prepared. 1t is one of the
greatest advantages resulting from the
use of machinery upon forms, that it to
a great extent ,necessitates good farm
ing. At least that it compels improve
ments, and the farmer who once enters
upon the march of Improvement, rarely
stops, and never turns back. Thus
when drill is used for the first time, the
farmer finds his crooked fence in the
way; his narrow gates or his awkward
bars are incoDvenient, the brush and
weeds around his fence interfere, his
poor ploughing is troublesome, and the
banks and hard spots that have been
left, nuisance to him, and the weeds,
trash. rough clods and stone upon the
surface are a severe tax upon his pa
tience. The next season all these fail
will be reminded, because discovering |
the profit of the machine, he is obliged |
to prepare for its use This is like the
entrance of light into dark places, and
a number of things that were never
noticed or suspected before, are now so
apparent that they can
not be any longer left undone. The
same is true as TO the use of the NOW
er or reaper, and thus the money spent
for any of these needful machines is re-
paid in more ways than one.-Agricul-
lnTiSt.

BENEFITS OF SPARRows. In his
key to North American Birds" Mr.
Coues expressed his apprehensions that
the English sparrow would modest and
drive away our native species. He now
writes to the american Naturalist that
these apprehensionS have already been
verified. From letter written by Mr..
Thomas G. Gentry, it appears that in
the neighborhood of Germantown, Pa,
the English Sparrows are driving away
the robins, bluebirds and native spar
rows. ''They increase so rapidly, and
are so pugnacious, that our smaller ma
tive birds are compelled to seek quarters
elsewhere. 1t is chiefly on this account
that Mr.. Coues has already been oppOs-
ed to the Introduction of the English
sparrow, but also for other reasons. He
holds that there is no occasion for them
in this country, and that the good they
do in destroying certain insects has been
oyerrated.
