FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL 80. 1880.

The Aunt WAS not at all pleased.
and proposed, that Minnie, should

Ihonas'
The young lady objected to this,
and said, she would defer the visit
until winter.
For awhile, Minnie took no morn
ing walks, and she tried 10 avoid the
stranger, but gradually her old habits
were resumed, and il became quite
natural for licmto take walks, both
morning and evening.

MANURES.
ERitor OIuRgcJmg ines:

Editor O,ungcJmy imcs:
Thousands of dollars arc lost tt5
the farmers annually by the iniiidi
clous application Of fertilizers:
wish TO be practical on this stbiett;
and will point out some Of the tauses
which prevent the farmer FROM re:
cclvlng the full benefit Of manurcs:
Shallow and imperfect blowing in
breaking the land. No manure will
pay well, unless the soil he deeply
amt thoroughly broken. Every far.
ncr should know thatmanure ntir-
lures the crop only when in n soll-
bic condition, and that well broken
S"li Will retain moisture and facili-
tate The rise and fall Of it, Another
cause OF loss to the farmer, is grass
and weeds. Commercial fertilizer are
very soluble, and weeds and grass
are very hearty feeders and will steal
most of the fertilizer, if allowed to
remain any time in the crop. A far
mcr who applies manure iudiciously
must understand the constitution Of
plant food in the substance he uses
rs manure; also the nature of the cro,J
or plant which he cultivates. To
illustrate, and also to answer n nues-
ton often asked, "why is cotton seed
not Il good fertilizer for COW -pcas?''
cotton seed containcs very little, if
any, lime and potash, which is the
dominant clement of plant food for
III" common cnw-pras. Any soil de.
iicicnt i'll lime and potash will fail to-
produce cow-pcas. Commercial ferti-
lizrrS seldom if ever pay, when used
on their worn sandy land. Why? be-
cause it is destitute OF iiuiiuses. h.t
when humus abounds. it pay better
than on any other class of land. /
consider sandy land, with CLAW sub
soil, the best in the world for the use
of fertilizers Farmers give very
little thought to the plant food con
tanned in the material they use as
manure. If it look dark and smells
offensive, that is sufficient. Ammonia
is sufficient by itself, which is a
great mistake. / admit that ammo
ria is the most important plant food

refer the farmer to the experiments
Of the French chemist NJ. Vile, which
consider very satisfactory. To use
commercial fertilizers on worn sandy
land, is to lose your money. You
must restore organic matter to your
soil if yon would have them paw,

TOO LONG 4 CAMPAIGN.

We have been shown a letter from
Senator Nj. {. Butler 10 a citizen OF
Chester, i'll which he expresses grave
apprc hcnsi"nS rs to the proprictv OF
the action of the State Executive
tommitlrc i'll calling the State Con
vcntion {" nominate Il State ticket as
carly rs the first Of June. Senator
Butler thinks that Il campaign ofiivc
months will give the sore heads, or
independent element, ample time 10
work mp IN organized opposition to
the regular ticket. The people will
become wcaricd and lose enthusiasm
III SO long campaign Besides these
disadvantages, long campaign will
be most disastrous to the agricultural
interests Of the State. The Senator
thinks that the campaign should not
be longer than six weeks or two
months.-t hester Reporter

HOW TO BE MISERABLE.

Sit by the window and look over
he way to your neighbours excellent
mansion which he has recently built,
and paid for and fitted out, saying
oh that was n rich man.
Get angry with your neighbor, and
think yol have not n friend in the
world. Shed Il tear or two, and take
Il walk in the burial ground, continu-
ally saying to yourself: when shall
be buried here?'
Sign note for friend, and never
forget your Kindness, and every hour
IN the day whisper to yourself: I
wonder if he will ever pay that note:'
Think everybody means to cheat
YOU. Closely examine every bill YOU
take, and doubt its being genuine un-
Til yon have put the owner to great
deal of trouble. Put confidence in
nobody, and believe every one YOU
trade with to he rogue.
Never accommodate if YOU can
possibly help it. Never visit the
sick or afflicted, and never give a
farthing to assist the poor.
b"H TX chSap rs you can, and
screw down to the lowest cent. Grind
the faces and hearts of the unforttt-
nate.
Brood over your misfortnncs; your
lack "ftalcnts, and believe that Mt no

Let the work house be ever in yonr
mind, witha the horrors of distress
and poverty.
Follow these receipts strictly, and
YOU will he miserable to your hearts

AN ELEGANT TEsTIMONIAL.-We all re-
collect when our gallant Danville boys, the
Grays, made their ceremonial visit to Dur
ham, n. c., how they were treated by the
Durham Light Infantry, the trade, w. L.
Blackwell and the citizens generally. Also,
how the Grays, under Captain Gerst held a
meeting after their return. and drew up,
and had published, a preamble and resolu.
ions setting forth some of the feelings of
thanks and appreciation that obtained
among them. The company determined to
nave these resolutions engrossed and
framed and then to present the same to the
Durham Light Infantry. For this purpose
Mrs. A. Green was waited upon and she
kindly consented to lend her artistic genius
to the aid of the scheme. Mr.. j. L. Tyack
came to the rescue in the matter of engross-
ing. and the present elegantly framed testi-
monial, twenty by forty inches in net size,
c~ontaing the autographs of Captain A.
Gerst, Lieut.. w. I. Hutchings, and TWEEN
t~y-seven of the Grays is the result. Mrs.
Green did her work we'll, and her crayon
representation of a Gray at parade rest"
with military camp and the battlements Of a
fort in the back ground, the whole sur
rounded and draped with State and United
States flags is very ornamental, indeed

that he would contribute $50 toward the
expenses of the funeral. The burial lot
at st. German cost $40. The deceased was
a lady of refined and pleasing manners She
was graceful and attractive, with especially
pretty hands and feet. and her figure was
faultless. She was kind and aimaDle TO an
extreme, and Of a sweet and forbearing dis
position, her only fault being, as Lady Al
bert Clinton said, that she loved not wisely
but too we'll.
The funeral services took place this morn
ing at the Protestant Episcopal Church in
the Rue Bayard. DIR. Morgan officiated.
The attendance was very small. there being
only about a dozen persons, chiefly ladies,
present.

A PERPETUAL BoQUET.--A simple me-: no l
of covering fresh flowers with alum crystal
~izations is as follows Make baskets Of
pliable copper wire and wrap them with
guaZe. Into these tie to the bottom viO-
lets, ferns, geranium leaves, in fact any
flowers but full blown roses, and sink them
in a solution of alum of one pound to the
gallon of water-after the solution, has
cooled, as their colors will then be preserv-
ed in their original beauty, and the crys-
tallized alum will hold faster than if dipped
in a hot solution. When you have a light
covering Of distinct cystals that cover com
pletelv the articles, remove carefully, and
allow it to drain for twelve hours. Com
NOR willow or fancy baskets for grasses or
flowers are pretty dipped in this way.

MURDER AT A SUNDAY SCHooL.-The
peaceful Sabbath evening was startled by a
report of a very sad affair at Merritt s
school house at about 3 o'clock p. In. last
Sunday. 1t seems that two young gentle
men, Charles Behrnes and Morris Behrnes,
cousins, had had a difficulty some time ago,
and all efforts on the part Of mutual friends
to reconcile their differences failed. On
Sunday evening the parties met at Merritt's
school house, about thirteen miles from town
wherea Sunday school meeting was to BE-
held. Morris Behrnes arrived there first,
and when Charles Behr, IS was seen coming
Mr.. Townsend, the superintendent Of the
Sunday school, went out to meet him and
to endeavor to bring about ii reconciliation
before the parties should meet.
While they were standing talking the
firing commenced. One fatal shot struck
Mr.. Townsend, killing him, and Charles
Berhnes las wounded. During the firing
Polite Behrnes was wounded in both arms,
and AionZo Wood was also wounded. After
emptying his pistol Charles Behrnes moved
off to the residence of John Merritt, where
he dropped dead from the effects of his
wound.-Brton Rogue iLu) Adcocote.
