THE HIDDEN RESOURCES OF VIR-

and West Virginia are now evidently in a
fair way ofdevelopment. There are seven
Teen coal mines open or nearly ready Tor
working IN these states, while seven iron
mines are in operation, or about to be.
Twelve iron furnaces also have been built
or projected within the last two months,
which will probably produce 10000 tons
pig IRON annually, and consume 200, 900
tons OF coal. This rapid progress indicates
that the Virginias will, ere long, be great
iron-producing states, and enjoy all the
consequent prosperity.

A Tennessee Romance.
J. BATEMAN SMITH.

He was young, he was fair, and he parted
his hair, like the average beau, in the middle,
he was proud, he was bold, but the truth
must be be told, he played like fend on the
fiddle. Barring his voice, he was everything
nicei and his heart was so loving and tender,
that he always turned pale when be trod on
the tail Of the cat lying down by the fender.
He clerked in store, and the way that he
tore off calico, jeans, and brown sheeting,
would have tickled calf, and made the
brute laugh in the face of quarterly meet
ing. He cut quite cash with Darling
moustache, which he learned to adore and
cherish for one girl had said, while she
dropped her proud head, that 'twoud kill her
to see the thing perish. On Sundays he'd
search the s.rais sht load to the church, un-
needing the voice of the sooner; and de-
murelyhe srt, like a young tabby cat, with
the saints in the amen corner. He Gang like
bird, and his sweet voice was heard fairly
tugging away at long meter; and we speak
but the truth, when we say that this youth
could outsing hungry mosquito. She was
young, she was fair, and she scrambled her
hair like the average belle of the city she
was proud, but not bold, yet the truth must
be told, the way she chewed wax was pity.
Barring this vice, she was everything nice,
and the world admired her hustle; and the
Fayetteville boys, being calmed by the noise,
walked miles to hear it rustic. She cut quite
a swell, did this wax-chewing belle, aud men
focked in crowds to meet her but she gave
them the .hirk, for she loved the young clerk,
who sang like hungry mosquito. So she
hummed and she hawed. and she sighed and
she 'chawed," till her heart and her jaws
were broken; then she walked by his store,
while he stood at the door awaiting some
loving token. She raised up hes eyes with
mock surprise, and tried to enact the scorner.
but, to tell the truth, she grinned at the
youth who loved the amen corner. .
They met-alas! what came to pass was soft
and sweet and precious; they wooed, they
cooed, he talked, she chewed-O, how they
loved, good gracious! They had to part, he
rose to start; her grief can not be painted;
these are the facts; she swallowed he wax,
then screamed, then choked, then tainted.
Her pa appeared; her beau. quite scared,
rushed out to get some water; the watch
dog spied his tender hide, and bit him where
he ''oughter" The tale is sad, the sequel
bad-so thinks the youth thus bit en-. He
sings no more, as oft of yore-he gave that
girl the mitten. She pined apace. her pretty
face looked slender and detected; her father
kind, but somewhat blind, beheld her and re
fected. His income tax he spent for wax-
she smiled and called him clever. She went
to work, forgot that clerk, and chawed in
bliss forever!

Profits of Farming, etc.

I have received copy of Lynn paper,
with an article on "The Profits OF Farming"
marked for me to take especial notice of; l
suppose because it is an argument upon the
profits of corn growing in New England,
which rather refutes what l have said in
these columns, that could not see profit
in raising corn ii this section when it could
lie bought for dollar bushel or less. Be
cause the article deserves wider circulation
Imam 1t will obtain in the local papers, and
because desire to give the readers of the
journal chance to see both sides of the
question, shall make liberal extracts from
IL, ana take the liberty of making my COM
ments on it. The following reports we're
made to the "Sterling Farmers Club,' in
contesting for premium offered for the hest
corn crop raised in 1873. The first. from Mr..
D. W. Newall Of Sterling says:
''The piece of corn 1 offer for premium CON-
tains three acres and twenty rods. The soil is
a good loan with clayey subsoil. Last year
the ground was in grass, and had been for
seven years. Plowed IN the fall of 1872 with
Holbrook's No. swivel plew from eight to
nine inches deep. Spread on in May twenty
in with Shares harrow. Planted eight rowed
yellow corn the Goth of May, three and one
half feet apart each way. 1t was hoed twice {;
the first time it was cultivated each way with
HolbroOk's s cultivatOr, and three men worked
one and one-half days with hand hoes; the
second time used the Bangor horse hoe and
two men and two horses worked nearly one
day; no hand hoes were used. The corn was
cut at the roots and OOked the first week in
October. Commenced harvesting the 10th of
October. The result is as follows:
