Anecdotes OF Henry Clay.

Mr.. Clay's knowledge of human nature
was thorough and profound, and he was
able to put it to use at any moment, as the
following anecdotes will show:
On a certain occasion he met an old
hunter who had once been his supporter,
but who afterward went against him on
account of his vote on a certain bill in
Congress-
Have you good rifle, my friend ?'' he
asked Of the hunter.
Eyes"
"Does it ever flash in the pan?''
1t never did so more than once" the
hunter answered, proud of his weapon.
"Well, what did you do with it? You
didn't throw it away, did you?" continued
Mr.. Clay.
"No; picked the flint, tried it again,
and brought down game"
Have ever flashed in the pan, except
on the Compensation bill?"
"No, can't say you have"
"Well, will you throw me away?'
"No; I'll pick the flint and try you
again" So the hunter grasped Mr. Clay's
hand and gave him his vote.
AT another time Clay was visiting a
backwoods county in Kentucky, where
the man who could fire the best shot stood
nlSneSt III esteem, ana the man VINO
couldn't fire at all was looked upon with
contempt. He was canvassing for votes,
when he was approached by some old
hunters, one of whom told him that he
would be elected to Congress, but that he
must first show how good shot he was.
Clay declared that he never shot with any
rifle except his own, which was al home
"No matter. Here's Old Bess, ," an
swered the hunter, giving him gun,
"and she never fails in the hands of a
marksman. She's put bullet through
many a squirrel at a hundred yards and
has let daylight through red-skin at
twice that distance. If you can shoot
with any gun, you can shoot with Old
BeSs.'
A target was set up and Mr.. Clay aimed
cold Bessn at it. He fired faint hearted
ly, but the shot struck the DuII7s-eye IN
the center.
"a chance shot! chance sEotn' cried
his opponents.
"Never mind,n he answered. "You
beat it and then will'
No one could beat it, and Mr.. Clay had
too much sense to try again. = William II.

TIE Irish Farmers Gazette gives explicit
directions for boiling joint of beef. Ii
says: "Allmeat, poultry excepted, should
be put into cold water and not boiled too
fast. In every case let care be taken to
remove the scum from the top of the
water just before it boils. This keeps
the meat and the water clean and agree.
able in appearance. AS the water de-
creases from evaporation replenish with
hot or boiling water, so as to keep the
meat always covered. 1t is usual to al
low quarter of an hour for every
pound of the meat in boiling, reckoning
from the time the water begins to boil !;
but this is rule which will, of course,
be departed from according as the meat
is required to be over or under done. 1t
is always better to boil slowly than
quickly; rapid boiling hardens the
meat. Perfectly fresh meat requires
longer boiling than that which is tender
or ripe.n

To THE farmer the horse is the concen-
tration of animal worth. He may make
his subsistence from his swine or his cat.
tie or his sheep, but next to mother earth
itself his gain is dependent upon the
active, patient, willing bundle Of nerve,
sinew and intelligence doneup in the skin
of the horse. Swine, cattle and sheen
may be driven to market or slaughtered at
home, and dollars and cents make the
parting cheerful and glad. But if g old

by purchaser, though greenbacl1s paper

to all the household, as though one of its
members was in peril or was about part
ing from them. 1t is this INTERVIEWING of
affection, based upon appreciation of
spirit docility, usefulness, intelligence,
beauty and grace, that makes the horse
next kin to man of all the beasts of the
field that God has put under him.

In the cultivation of garden crops the
hoe and rake should be continually al
work. Weeds should be taken in hand
before they are barely out of the seed
leaf, and one-half the usual labor of veg.
etable gardening will be avoided. Hoe
ing or earthing up of most garden crops
is of immense advantage in nearly every
case. One would suppose that in our
hot climate fiat culture would be much
more beneficial; but fair trial, say on
every other row of bed of cabbages,
will show great difference in favor OF
the earthed-up Plants Pestera Rural

The Famous Pumpkin Freshet."

In 1S45 there was a food i'll the Deh-
ware river which is remembered as the
"pumpkin freshet." 1t came when the
pumpkins in the fields along the river
were all ready to haul in. The water
rose SO high that many of the farms
were submerged and the pumpkins were
carried off. The river was filled with
the floating vegetables, and in some
places they were so thick in the stream
that they lodged in the channel and
formed immense dams. At point mid
way between Port Jervis and Milford
there is large island in the river, the
main channel being on the Pennsylvania
side, and quite narrow. At this place
the pumpkins formed heavy jam; being
piled up many feet thick, covering the
island for a long distance. They re-
NAMED there until the water fell, and
were carted away by the farmers in the
vicinity, which was the only point where
pumpkins were plenty that year. The
place in the river where this pumpkin
gorge" occurred was at once named
Pumpkin rift" This became corrupt
ed into Punkies, by which name it is
known the length Of the river.

"You learned faster than any one else
could; 1 know that, 1 answered. "But,
johnny, how could you bear to go back
to begging againl'
CT couldn't bear it, nam, and
didn't. I had money enough, that Mr..
Tom had given me, to buy myself a
stock of papers. I'm newsboy now,
and 1 teach Mag to read out of the
papers have left. And old Meg knows
better than to beat Mag now; and we
are so much happier. It's all owing to
you; and 1 came back to thank you
but 1 never could forsake Mag for long.
I must stay with my own. "
"But they are not your own"
Mag is, ma'am."
He was as resolute tqally himself, for
that girls sake, with poverty, and if
need were, shame, as ever was a hero
to live or die for the land of his birth
and out in the rain, down the desolate
street, watched my vagrant go away
from me forever. But 1 did not pity
him. No soul is to be pitied which has
reached life's crowning good-the power
to love another better than itself. No1
do L know any curled darling of fortune
who seems to me happier than was my
vagTant.
