Advice to Young Ladies.

Oh, young woman, never give your
hand in marriage to man who tam.
pers with strong drink, any more than
you would take hold of basilisk
You would reform him by marriage
would you? Never! l have seen the
experiment tried too often, and the
women who made the experiment, by
marriage, of reforming man, some of
them are in the alms-house and all the
rest OF them are wretched without any
exception. Reform him. will you?
Why, where one woman has succeeded
ip that experiment there are five huns
bred women buried IN the ruins. Young
women, if a young man does not think
enough of you to give up the wine
cup, tell him plainly that you will not
contest for his affections with SO vile
rival. Do not be hasty to leave your
fathers house in such unseaworthy craft.
They say that Captain Williams was
drunk when he drove the Atlantic on
Mars head, and look out how you
trust your voyage of life in the hands of
an inebrate The rocks!
say to the families of my congrega-
ton, Danish the wine-cup from the ia.
bic, dash the breaker from your lips
and in the strength of God resolve that
you will no more have anything to do
with strong drink for tell you now
that there is multitude of you kept
away from Christ by" intoxicating Ii
quor, and there are some of you who
profess to be followers Of Jesus, mem.
bers of my church, who are drinking a
little too much. Though you have not
gone far in sin, though you may never
have been intoxicated, aud l suppose
you have not, know some Of you
have been drinking too much, and 50
l ask you all to abstain. Come out on
the side of the Christian religion. Let
me tell you now, no drunkard hath
eternal life, and that some of you are
running an awful risk of being drunk
ards. May the Lord God Almighty
save you, and me, and our families, and
this whole country from the scathing,
scalding, blasting, damning, influence
of strong drink.-Ta1maage.

REVERSE OF FORTUNE.

Strange reverses of fortune are
occurring every day, for riches take to
themselves wings, and the man who
to day is rolling in wealth, may to-
morrow be a bankrupt. A curious
instance of such reverse is here re.

DISCOVERED MER1r-A wealthy
gentleman, while passing through an
obscure street in a large city, saw a
fine but very dilapidated picture in a
brokers' shop. He purchased it, and
inquired the painters name, but was
unable to discover more than the in
itials. Confident that the picture-a
seaside view with rocky shore-was
modern, he was anxious TO discover
the painter. In vain he tried all the
picture dealers. They knew the style
and the initials, but were unacquaintcd
with the man. They were confident the
painter was alive, but they knew moth
ing of his home OF haunts. The gentle
man. piqued at being so baked, deter
mined to find the painter, and at last,
in despair, applied to a skilled detec-
tive. The latter knew nothing about
art or artist, but he undertook to find
the man. And find him he did, after
some trouble, in the midst of the direst
poverty, living in dirty little court.
The discovery of the artist was the
turning point in his fortunes. The gen.
tleman became his partner, and he fin~
ally arose to wealth and station. Hum
BILE worker take courage from this incl
dent, and persevere.

GREEN MATURING WITH BucKwHEAT.
Buckwheat is extensively employed in
certain portions of the country for turn
ing under as manure. 1t is more val'
liable for this purpose upon light,
sandy soils, containing very little ves-
etable matter, than upon heavy clays.
We have field at this time covered
with a fine growth of buckwheat,
which will be turned under as soon as
it comes into bloom, and the land
seeded down the LIST of September with
timothy grass, and without grain being
added, as is generally practiced. If
we were to SOW winter wheat or rye
upon the land we should consider the
buckwheat as beneficial, inasmuch as it
would be equal to light dressing of
manure You can test this system OF
turning under buckwheat for winter
grain without much expense, and We
would advise you to do so.

WHAT THE RETURNED EXILE CLAIMS.
They claim that as their principal Is the insuled
party he has not only the choice OF weapons but
the right 10 determine the distance.
GOOD DEAL OF TALK, BUT 40 ACTION.
They then demanded that the men should meet
with pistols. at distance OF five PAGES. and shoot
at the word OF command. NJ. de CassaEnac's Sec
onds said this simply murder. Tor when
the arms OF the combarants were extended, the
muzzles OF their weapons would almost touch NJ.
Rochefort's representatives refused to admit
these objections. They SAID their principal con-
sidering the Importance OF the case bad been very
particular about the conditions.
AND so IT RESTS.
The frienos OF NJ. de Cassagnac then proposed
that the distance be thirty PAGES, each comoatant
TO be allowed 10 advance Ave steps alter the
word Is given. the time OF firing to be optional
and the shooting to continue until of the par
ties fall. NJ. Rocheorts seconds declined this
proposition, and the matter rests there.
