UNnYINGs FIRE.
BY CARRIE v. SHAW.


Respectfully dedicated to Oliver Wendell Holiness
OTime claims it's tribute; silence now is golden;
Let me not vex the too long suffering lyre; "a
Though to your love untiring yet beholden,
The curfew tells me- Cover up the fire."
%. w. Holmes !" IRON Gate.D
Friend have known thee from my early childhood
Here is a picture thou wilt understand
A barefoot urchin roaming through the wildwood,
book of poems in one soied brown hand
The pictured child is me, and thine the poem,
On which the hungry soul is feeding there;
And when the years were past she said, sIknow him
Have known him from my childhood" Was it fair
Now for the sake Of the old wildwood sweetness,
And for the wondrous dreams that children dream,
wish to write thee, in thy lifes completeness,
Expressing my regard and my esteem.
wish to say to thee that though the number
Of thy fair years be now three score and ten,
The fire thy genius hndled shall not slumber;
Once lighted, it can not go out again. Viz
This fire, undying as the soul that, breathing
Upon cold ashes, turns them into flame,
Shall burn for many pleasant years, still wreathing
New garlands Of immortelles round thy name.
And may the warmth and fragrance Of the morning
Be round about thee as the sunset fades,
When twilight dews fall gently, as in warning
OF dangers in the nights intrusive shades.
And when, at last, Peace visits thy calm pillow,
smiling angei-not Death, chill and drear-
Oh, may the south wind whisper to the willow
To sing the songs thou most hath loved to hear
Then, as with falling tears we bend above thee,
And know the fire of life is all gone out, ~ sev
We will not call thee dead, but we who love thee
Will gather up the treasures strewn about;
Well build temple DER the glowing embers, sa
The fragrant blossoms of thy genius rare,
And guard the fire TO prove that love remembers
The hand that lit the incense burning there.
Oh brightly shall it burn through all the summer,
And brightly burn when winters SHOWS are white,
And when the day is dead and earth grows dunber
Wen keep it shining through the fogs of night.
And if anon by chance the fire should smolder,
Love, kneeling low, will fan it with her breath,
Then shall each ember that was growing colder
Flash its red light up in the face of death.
And Death, abashed, with pallid brow grown whittier,
Shall shrink into the shadows whence he came, 4
While the old flames shall leap up higher brighter,
And write in words of scarlet fire thy name.
Immortal light, that never can grow dimmer;s
Immortal fire, that never can grow cold;
Immortal genius, with the sunrise glimmer; seta
Immortal name, traced in the sunsets gold!

{ UnyVhOIcsOme Wells.

The great trouble with wells is that in the
course Of years the ground around the house
and barn becomes so impregnated with sew
age and other contaminations as to affect
the water. In the first report of the Massa-
chusetts Board of Health, Dr. Derby says
AS rule, well receives drainage from
superficial circular area whose diameter is
from one TO three times the depth of the
well, varying with the character fthe SOIL"
On this prineipls, no well thirty feet deep
should have privy, pig-pen, barn yard, or
cess-pool within fifty feet Of il in any direc-
tion, nor should any slops of the house or
refuse Of any kind be thrown upon the sur
face Of the ground within the area of this
circle. How many farms are there on which
this principle is not violated 1t is not
sufficient reply to say that the family have
drank from such wells with impunity for
scorce or more Of years. Unjust be remem-
bered that when the wells were first dug
the water was pure, but the ground has been
gradually impregnated with foul matter,
which, If it has not already perpenated to
the water, will finally reach and containi-
nate it. After fatal case of typhoid fever
IL will be too late to resort to crystal

FARM NOTES.

Tho Lipe Stock Journal says; A mod
crate quantity of cayenne pepper, mustard
or ginger can, with great benefit, be added
to the food of fowls to incaease their vigor,
and to stimulate egg production. This diet,
although apparently artificial, is really nat
ural; for wild birds ef the gallinacean fami-
ly have access to very many highly -spiced
berries and buds-article that give the
"game flavor" to their flesh.
Prof. ]. F. w. Johnston, says: at is
Sertaln that common salt has in very many
cases been advantageous to the growing
crop" He then quotes the results of ex-
pcriments in which wheat dressed with salt
gave an average of eight bushels more than
the same kind of soil produces without salt;
barley gave an inereas oftwenty bushels
an acre, and hay one ton increase to the
acre.
The scales which fly Off from iron be-
ing worked at forges, iron trimmings, fl
ings, or other Gerruginous material, if work.
cd into the soil about fruit trees, or the more
minute particles spread thin!y on the lawn,
mixed with the earth of flower beds or in
pots, add greatly to the productveness Of the
soil. For eolored flowers, they heighten the
bloom, and increase the brillianey.
After the ground is fairly closed up BY
frost for the winter, it will be an excellent
time to paint the house, barn and other arm
buildings, and all the farm impliments and
carriages that need it. Paint spread at this
season Of the year, makes durable cover
ing, and there are no flies or other insects to
spoil its looks after being spread, as during
the hot days of summer.
As q slight evidence Of what Texas is
doing in the way of raising fruit trees, it is
stated that nurseryman in Washington
county has twenty-seven men traveling,and
holds orders for 10000 peach trees.
"A sure method of draining lands is
given by the Sanitarian. 1t says; "Drink
whiskey and spend all your time at a will

all your lands in a very short while"
The rice crop of Louisiana this year i.
estimated at 100000 barrels. Last years
crop amounted to 100000 barrels.

A cyclone passed over the country near
Carthage, Missouri, on Saturday evening"
going from southwest to northwest. II was
accompanied by violent thunder and light
ming. A number of dwellings and other
buildings near Carthage, and at Sarcoxei

molished, and three persons were fatally
injured. The town Of Marshfeld, nearly
destroyed last summer, was again visited,
and il is said nearly all the northern por-

A cure at last,

Specifics without number for the cure Of
Catarrh have been extensively advertised,
and doubtless there is some virtue in all but
the evidence is overwhelming that Ely's
Cream Balm goes more directly than any
other to the seat of the disease, and though
it is a comparatively new discovery, il has
resulted in more cures within the range of
our observation than all the others put to-
gether. Wilkesbarre, Pa, Union Leader,

NEW JERSEY WINE.

This wine for sickness has long been in
popular lavor, but by no means Intoxicating
in its nature. We refer to Specr's Port
Grape Wine, which has been introduced in
to hospitals and among the first families in
New York, the principal drug stores in this
city, by Alfred Speer, of PassaIc, N. j., who
has devoted himself for many years to the
cultivation of the Oporto Grape, and the
study OF lamentations, and producing an
article, the medical properties of which are
said by gentlemen of reputation to be un-
surpassed. Mr.. Speer ierments his wine by
a new process, perculiar TO himself, without
the addition of sugar or spirits. We doubt
whether there is a vineyard in the old or
new world that can yield wine at all COM
parable to this in richness or delicacv of fla
vor. All first class druggists keep it..
The above extract from the New York
Herald shows the appreciation in which
speer's wine is held abroad. We have drank
the wine and can truthfully endorse what
tho above extract says concerning its good
qualities. The way in which it Is matured
by Mr.. Speer gives finer flavor than any
wine we ever drank Boston Trareler).

Preparation of EHnrnes..

Tho first point 70 be observed is TO keep
the leather soft and plablej this can be done
only by Keeping It we'll charged with oil
and grouse water is a destroyer of these,
bot mpd and saline moisture from the ami
NAL are even more destructive. Mud, in
drying, absorbs tho greaeo and opens the
pores of the leather, making ready prey to
water, while the salty character Of the pers-
yisation from the animal injures the leather,
stitchings and mountings. 1t therefore fol
lows that to preserve harness the straps
should be washed and oiled whenever il has
bscn moistened by sweat or soied by mud.
To do this eilectually, tho straps should bo
unbuckled and detached then washed
with little water and brown soap, then
coated with a mixture of neatsfoot oil and
be allowed to remain undsturOed until the
water Is dried out then thoroughly rub
with wooden rag the rubbing is impor-
tant, as IL, in addition to removing the sur
plus oil and grease, tends to close the PORES
sna give a finish TO the leather. In hang
ing harness care should be taken 10 allow
all straps to hang their full length brides;
pads,gig saddles and collars should be hung
upon forms of the shape Of each. Light is
essential to the care of leather,and when the
harness closet is dark the door should be left
open at least half the time during the day.
AL closets should be ventilated, and when
possibls they should be well lighted. To
clean plated mountings use a chamois with
little triIe oil or rotton stone, but they
should be secured as little as possible. Rub
Dor covered goods arc cleansed in the same
way. Leather covered needs to be well
brushed and rubbed with wooden rag.
If a harness is thoroughly cleansed twice
year, and when unduly exposed treated as
We have recommended, the leather will re-
tain its soltness and strength for many years.
