SAVE hog manure now, as 1t Is espe-
cially valuable from fattening hogs.
As nearly all the nitrogen of the fool
is contained I'm the liquids voide'l, none
of it should b. allowed to waste. Lit
ter the pens with an absorbent-slry
earth or muck, or cut straw. Much of
the net proats OF stock comes from the
manure, hogs included, and yet not one
farmer in ten saves half The hog ma
nnre male. This is the kind of econ-
Omy that makes hard times. 1t is esti-
mated thar ii all the manure pig
makes was saved properly, it would
add, on an average, about two cents to
the value of each pound Of pork.-Ohio

FALL PLOwINd.-A correspondent of
the Rural Home argues thus about fall
plOwing: If land where there is no
sod is plowed i'm the fall and heavy
snow comes upon it before being frozen
il is found about as hard as land not
plowed and no good comes Of it; but if
clay soil is plowed when dry in the
fall, and is frozen hard during winter
it will be finer, and work up lighter for
spring seeding. Clay soils not well
drained and sosituated that the surplus
water cannot get of will be injured by
throwing them up loose in the fall, for
the rains will so saturate them that
they will be as hard as bed OF dried
mortar, and 10 after culture can bring
them into condition for spring crop.
But with good drainage the opposite
conditions prevail.

which Christ called us into the
church, if we have not become real
christians as well as professed chris
tians, how can we hope to labor sue
cessfully for the aim of the Sunday
school?
1t is apparent then, that in order
to reach the aim of the Sunday school
the teacher should have clear
knowledge of the way of salvation,
and a good understanding of the
fundamental doctrines of the gospel.
instruction to the children should, as
far as possible, be clothed in the lam
guage of the bible, so that they may
become familiar with the word of
God, for "the entrance of Thy words
giveth light; it giveth understanding
unto the simple"
In order that we may advance the
aim OF the Sunday school, let ms earn
estly seek our own growth in grace
and in the knowledge OF our Lord
and Saviour, Jesus Christ. A minis
ter once met one OF his parishioners,
a poor but pious man, engaged on his
knees in the work of breaking stone
for the turnpike, and accosted him
with these words: "Ah, my good
friend, wish / could break the hard
hearts of my parishioners as easily as
you can those stones" and he re-
ceived the reply, "Sir, try it on your
knees, like 1 do" SO we should Ia
Dor much in our closets and on our
knees, if through the Sunday school
work we would train children for the
kingdom Of heaven, and thus reach
the aim of the Sunday school.

Romance Of the Revolution.

The house which is now the resi-
dence of w. HI. McRary, situated on
the south western corner of Market
and Third streets, is not only one OF
the ancient landmarks of Wilmi gton,
but is intimately connected with a
legend which commences in the days
of the revolution and continues down
to our present time. During the
summer Of 1871 the house was occu
pied by Cornwallis as the headquar-
ters of his army. On his Lordship's
military staff was gay young caval-
ier who had become enamored with
young lady whose father resided in
South Carolina. Having declared his
passion, it was afterward, if not then,
as warmly returned. The two separ-
ated by 100 miles or more, and the
unyielding demands of active mill
tary campaign making it uncertain
when the young British Lieutenant
could again see the object OF his al
fections, he was occupied no doubt
with thinking of her, and wrote her
name upon window-pane in his
chamber with the diamond OF his
ring. The war at length over, and
peace declared, the British Lieuten-
ant returned TO South Carolina, mar
ried the lady, and took his bride with
him to England. After the lapse OF a
few years the young couple re-em-
barked for America, and made their
home in the city of New York. Thir-
ty or forty years ago son of the
couple was visitor to Wilmington,
and guest of the late venerable DIR.
Thomas HI. Wright, who owned and
resided in the house in question a
lifetime, leaving it to his heirs. This
New York visitor, by singular coin
cidence, was put i'm the chamber that
had been occupied by the British
iC HeiiC VI SoAhoo ppm
which the Lieutenant had written the
lady's name was still intact, and the
visitor at once recognized the name
as that of his mother before marriage.
And now comes another incident Of
the legend. Recently a son OF the
New York visitor that was was a
guest Of DR.. Wright thirty or forty
years ago, and a grandson of the
British Lieutenant. being well inform
ed of the story, came to Wilmington
TO search for the historic pane of
glass. This gentleman's name is
John w. Barrow, of New York city
When he arrived he found that the
ancient house had been remodeled
by the present owner, and was in
formed by Mr. McRary that the old
window sashes had been slowed away
in the cellar. Search being made, the
identical pane of glass was found. and
Mr.. Barrow took it back with him to

Hints to Everybody.

The way to get credit is to be
punctual; the way to preserve it is
not to use it much.
Settle often; have short accounts.
Trust no mans appearance; ap-
pearance is deceitful, perhaps assum-
ed for the purpose of obtaining
credit.
Beware of gaudy exterior; roughs
usually dress well. The rich are
plain; trust him, if any one, who car
ries but little on his back.
Never trust him who flies into a
pas sion on being dunned, but make
him pay quickly, If there is any vir-
tue i'm the law.
Whenever you meet a man who is
profoundly fond Of argument you
will meet one profoundly ignorant of
the operation of the human heart.
Mind your own affairs; let all the
errors you see in others manage
ment suggest correction in your own.

An old gentleman, who was always
Dragging how folks used to work in
his younger days, one day challenged
his two sons to pitch up load of hay
as fast as he could load it. The
challenge was accepted, the hay
wagon driven round, and the trial
commenced. For some time the old
man held his own very creditably,
calling out, More hay, more hay!"
thicker and faster it came; the oil
man was nearly covered; and still
kept crying, More hay, more hayl"
At length, struggling to keep on the
top of the ill-arranged heap, it began
first to roll, then to slide, and at last
off it went from the wagon, and the
old man with it. what are you
down here for?" at once cried the
boys. Il came down after more hay,
answered the old man.

A SONG OF THE GREEN THINGS GROW

Oh, the shines bright and bonny
Der the budding fields Of SPRING
wooing, with his gsnces feryent,
Every tender, springing thing.
Blades Of grass and buds Of leaiet,
Plumy fern, and shining thorn,
Swell and throb, with life pulsating
Meath the springtime's glowing morn.
And the gadsome earth laughs loud with mirth
For the Joy in her veins that's flowing,
And my heart grows light with a strange delight
At the sight of the green things growing.
Oh, the brooklet ripples gayly
Mid the mosses on its edgei
Murmuring love-notes softly, sweetly
To the paIpitating sedge.
Sunshine, moisture, dews down-dripping,
Gains of heat and storms Of rain,
Loose the dead eartbs shroudng cerement,
Call her soul to life again.
And the glad earth high to the sunlit sky
sends her incense upward flowing;
And my heart grows light with the dear delight
OF the smell Of the green things growing.
Oh, the sounds Of Spring are bonny!
Tris the robin, pipes the thrush;
And the turtles tender cooling
Far of fills the dreamy hush.
Hum Of bee and drone of insect,
Peep of biring, song Of bird,
Through the thrObbing falls Of sunshine
In the springtime's morn are heard
And the blithe birds sing their gsncing wing
While the sun in the sky is glowing
For they glad unite in my hearts delight
In the joy Of the green things growing

during the war, is now in large de-
mand. 1t supplies the place of al
mond and olive oils for various uses,
and is lower in price, retains its pur-
ity and flavor for "a long time, and is
less susceptible to the effect of light
than olive oil. The oil is extracted

An Art Treasure.
[From the Brooklyn Eagle.

lrIO" tAo DIOOAlyu E'dSlc.J
The art circles Of this city have been in.
terested of late in the discovery of portrait
painted by Sir Joshua Reynolds, in the pos
session of Mr.. John Allston, of Brooklyn
The manner in which 1t was discovered is
interesting. Mr.. Allston is q nephew OF
Washington Allston, the we'll known painter
of Boston, who was friend of Sir Joshua
Reynolds, and spent much time in Europe
and studied art there. During recent visit
to England Mr.. John Allston was hunting
through the art hsunts of London, in the
location where painters and pictures most
do congregate, and found there portrait of
his uncle in very dilapidated condition.
The painting was life size, presenting the
head and shoulders of the subject. Mr.. All.
ston supposed 1t had been painted by his
uncle, and for the sake of association pur-
chased it and brought it to this country. It
was given into the hands of Mr.. Thomas
Hogg, the well-known picture restorer of
this city, to be cleaned and restored. Mr.
Hogg proceeded with the work, when, dur.
ing the process of cleaning, to the surprise
of all concerned, the signature of Sir Joshua
Reynolds was found in one corner. The
delight of the owner In thus finding him
self the possessor of one of the original
works of the great portrait painter can bet
ter be imagined than described. He has
placed the picture in his gallery, where IL
occupies the post of honor.

and contains much information upon the

and some Of the principal routes Of service
through which the Government was de-
frauded. The report very severely criticizes

during the administration of Postmaster
