Some years ago, says an experienced farm
er, had lot of sheep wintered in pbuild
ing and yard fenced in with high paiiings
to keep out worthless ours. In the second
story of the building hay was kept for the
sheep, and fed to them under the building,
which was open at one end, some six or
seven feet high, into the yard where troughs
were kept for feeding grain. During the
winter manure accumulated under the
building to twelve or fifteen inches in depth
and extended gradually tapcring to the
ground, out into the yard. At the edge of
the building the manure was about twelve
inches deep. In the following autumn,
when | went to haul out the manure for
wheat, | found that immediately outside of
the edge Of the building where exposed to
the weather, it had rottcd and sunk till it
was only six inches deep, whilst that immc-
dately under the shelter was still about a
foot deep
took cart and oxen and drew the
manure which was on the outside of the
building, and put it on strip across the
field intended for wheat, then drew out the
same quantity in bulk from under the build.
ing, and put it in like manner on an ad.
joining strip of same size and quality. All
was sowed with wheat Of the same kind
and at the same time. The crop from
those two lands was not measured but every
one who examined the crop before cutting
decided there was about twice the quantity
on the land manured by the covered man

Press back thy tears, sad, weary heart.
Thy burden thou must bear;
Be bfave, be true fife's nobler part
Is never to despair.
Why saouldst thou weep o. sr pleasures fed
~ And idly sit thee downH
Some blessing yet are left to spread
Their brightness on thy crown.
Look upward still thou may'st not see;
But trust and labor on;
LIES richest treasures yet may be
by steadfast courage won.
Press back thy tears and be thoa strong
and brave, and nobly true;
Let ne. despair hush life's sweet song
And hide its brightness, too.
The oloud that shuts the sun from sight
Refreshes every flower;
And darkness cometh with the night
To weave its mystic power.

There was man IN our town,
Aud he was wondrous wise
lie bought heavy stock Of goods,
But wouldn't advertise. 49,.
lie said the folks knew where he kept,
And what he had to sell,
And if they didn't come and buy
They all might 60 towel.
They didn't come, and there he sot
And growlcd and cussed like sn,t
Till by and by the right man came
r And gently scooped him in
And busted him up!

great Vienna establishments. A litho-

slight mental exertion can only be bene-

questions of the day, and it is only fair
to say that it would be a comfort to
readers il some of the matter published
in the Vienna newspapers by people
generally considered sane we're as clev-
er and well written as some of these let
tiers. Those who are afflicted with any
monomania may ventilate their delu-
sions and support their convictions by
argument and example in the columns Of
this extraordinary paper. The logic
employed in an article in recent num-
Der (says q correspondent by one gen.
tleman to disprove the belief Of another
that his beard was of heather and re-
quired constant watering, was so fault
less and incisive as to have done credit
to Reeius professor of moral philoso-
ply. Alas! he himself firmly believed
that his nose was made of sugar, and to
prevent its getting wet, and consequent
" melting away, always drank through

Brave Mary Harvey.

Mr.. Chase of Grindstone Island and
Willard Baxter of La Fargeville, at 3
o. M, were crossing from Clayton to
Grindstone Island. Chase was rowing.
Baxter wished to row, and in attempt
ing to change places the boat upset be-
tween Grindstone Island and Governors
Island. They remained in the water,
clinging to the boat and calling for aid.
1t appeared that neither could swim.
Their cries were heard by Mary Harvey
of Syracuse, Gov Alvord's cook. She
awakened Mr.. Alvord, who was asleep,
informing him of the accident. He
thought the men in jest, but on looking
through glass discovered the situation.
fastening to the boat-house he found
that the brave Mary had already launch
ed and showed off boat and was away
to the rescue. Mary soon reached the
men, who were nigh exhausted, and
pulled one in. The other was also res
cued. Mary rowed them to Governors
Island, where they were warmed, fed
and clothed by Gov. Alvord. They
averred they could not have sustained
themselves a minute longer. Brave
Mary is but twenty-seven years of age.
By her promptness to the rescue she
prevented the addition of two more
names to the sad death list of this
neutrality-suspicious. IN. ~ Cor. Utica
