Some Of our farmers have commenced
to pillow and, in doing 80, show their wis
dom. Stubble ground turned over right
away after taking off the crop is regarded
as equal to summer following. The earlier
blowing can be done the better crop will
be reaped next year. We heard that some
are hesitating about blowing all their land
because they fear that they may not be
able TO get enough seed. especially those
who did not SOW wheat this year. With
no grasshopper eggs every man In the
County can get seed enough for all the
land he may have ready to seed. We
hope that every foot Of land will be piow-
ed. and the sooner the better. Lane
p,owed now will average five bushels Al
acre more than land rlo wed six week
hence.

THE discovery on the 18th ult., near one
of the ever-shifting sand banks Of Sable Is
land, of portion of the Italian bank Or
Veto. wrecked there many years ago, has
recalled TO the old keeper of the hospital in
in that gloomy region the incidents con-
nected with the OTvietO's loss, and which I've
lras recently repeated to the Captain of the
Lady Head, a little steamer that plies be-
tween Halifax and Sable Island with sup
plies. The night the Oryieto was wrecked
the watches ON the east bar of the island
were alarmed by the incesSant howlirg of
n dog. Following mp the sound their Ian
terms revealed a huge Newfoundland dog
guarding a woman and child. The usual
restoratives were instantly applied, and the
helpless sufferers removed on the canvas
stretchers, which the watches always carry.
On reaching the hospital the woman's SEN
ses could not be revived sufficiently long
to CLEAN from her any particulars Of the
wreck. The faithful dog. who had doubt
less dragged mother aud babe ashore, could
with great difficulty be kept away from he
bedside. The mother died the night of
her rescue. but the infant survived. and is
probably now living with its grandparents
in Palermo. Italy. The woman had the
miniature of her husband i'm a brooch, and
a letter ia her pocket, received AT Queens
town. aud dated at Palermo. giving the
name of the lost vessel and an address in
that city. Hardly any trace of the Inflated
bark was found for many months. so COM
pletely wrecked and buried in the sands
had she become.

THE EIORRIBLE SNOW.

OH the snow, the horrible snow,
Making my nose an emblem of woe;
Piliug up spow-drifts over my ears,
tllllng my eyes to overfiowing with fears
II we must have 1t, why couldn't it grow?
Twould be more acceptable then, know
Quite nice in its virgin purity-true!
But IL makes my face most awfully blue:
The way il goes floating and skimming''
along
In a virgin snow is decidedly wrong.
Light on the house-tops it setteth down,
It's poetical to call it a diamond crown:
But the house, if il leaks, its diamonds must
doff
And, prosiest fact, they shovel it off
As fair as the corals of ocean now,
II g'immers and CLEANS on cracking bough;
But snow laden boughs, it they chance 10 be
dead,
Are remarkably apt to fail on your head
Oh! the snow, the horrible snow!
It's all very nice to look at, l know,
As you sit by your fire and toast your Shin
While all is comfort and warmth within,
Watching the sparks mp the chimney fly
Watching the glow of the Goals they die;
Our places. if charged, right soon you would
'Tis distance lends charms to "beautiful
snow"
In this suffering world 'tis much ont of place,
Except as AN ultimate means Of grace
a trial for CiriStians-yet really I doubt
That they feel as they should, if the truth
we've out,
For precarious quite is 'beautiful snow
To morals and standing, as all may know
The pavements are nought but puddles of
slush.
And the shortness of petticoats causes
blush,
AS slipping and sliding I hurry on ny,
With cold in my head and a girl in my eve:
Trusting to stand, in IL duplicate sense,
By Providence and "a neighboring fence.
Once / was clean, like the snow, but / fell I:
Fell with a veheineuce words cannot tell
Made some remarks that when printed are
dashed
Fell to he bruised, to be laughed at, and
splaShed
Into the filth of the horrible street,
Dragged aud wet the suit once so neat;
Peucils, cigars, eyes glasses, All
Temper, besides, have lost hy my fall.
Even my iutimate passes me by,
Scorn on mis- brow aud his nose TO the sky.
One pleasure redeemipg comes with the
snow,
The minutes fly by with sparkle and glow
As we dash away gaily, light as 4 feather,
I and my honny sweetheart together;
Our hearts light as the crystalline spray
Thai springs from the hoofs OF our horses
away,
But sweethearts turn false, and the bills
come in
Beautiful snow" went furnish the tin.
How strange if under the veil Of the snow
i shOuld wander where pnnches enticingly
flow;
Where minutes and dollais so rapidly fee
That frequent Indulgence is forbidden to
How queer it would seem when night comes

And sone 100 many" has muddIed nv brain.
To lie in some dubious street down town,
Discouraged because OF the SHOWS coming
