From tho Richmond (va) Dispatch, July 81.
Uncle Pleasant Batkins is 60 and his wife
72. The other day friend said: Uncle
Pleasant, why in the mischief did you mar

mother?" you see, boy" he replied with
q sigh, Il was wurkin' for Long John

and Sary Ann Russ, old Mrs. Russ only

every quiltin she used to chuse me for her

she wur coartin' me. She gimme four
pair cotton socks and heap Of things, but
still didn't have no notion of her. Well.
one Christmas eve went to the old wo-
mans, and l had hardly sot down before
Sary Ann brought me some sweet pertato
pie, which she knowed was monstrous
found Of. While was aatin' it heard the
old woman up stairs countin' silver dollars.
Now, thar was no plaster to the ceilin' and
the up stairs floor had cracks in it as wide
as my finger. So, you see, could hear the
jingle Of the money jest ~ we'll ~ il I had
been up thar my self. When she had counted

tho question. In course she said she'd
have me, and the next Thursday We Was

Waste Material From Towns.
From the Lancaster, tPA) Farmer.


Nearly every farmer goes to the nearest
village to trade, visit q mechanic, or obtain
his letters and papers, at least once week.
He often takes load to market, but he
rarely brings one home. He can with very
little trouble, haul load of material that
may be obtained for nothing, and which
will be Of great talue to his land. Most
village people make no use Of the ashes
produced in their stoves, or Of the bones
taken from the meat they consume. Scarce:
y any brewer has any use for the hops TINT
have been boiled in his vats, and the black
smith hardly ever saves the clippings he
takes from the feet Of horses. All those
materials make excellent manure. A bar
rel OF shavings, cut from the hoofs of horses
contains more ammonia than is contained
in load of stable manure. Applied to
land without preparation they might give
no immediate results, but they would be-
come decomposed in time and crops Of all
kinds would derive benefit from them.
They may be 80 treated that they would
produce immediate results. BY covering
them with fresh horses manure they viii
decompose very rapidly. They may be al
80 leached in barrel and the water that
covered them drawn of and applied 70
plants. Water In which pieces Of horns
and hoofs have been soaked is an excellent
manure tor plants that require forcing. II
stimulates the growth Of tomatoes. rose
bushes, and house plants very rapidly, and
emits no offensive odors. A vast amount
OF fertilizing material ia wasted in town.
that farmers could obtain tho benefit cf
with very little trouble.

A New Lincoln Story.

When Lincoln was practicing in tho old
Langamon county court house, in the days
OF the old fashioned klat settees, a tall, slim
lawyer, noted for wearing very short coat,
slid along on the seat to be nearer the advo.
cate addressing the jury. A protruding
nail tore tho seat of the lawyers pantaloons.
Obliged to follow his opponent Immediate
y. there was no time to sew up the rent in
the garment. A legal wag present wrote a
subscription paper: I'VE, the undersigned,
agree to pay the sums set opposite to our
several names for the purpose Of purchas-
ing Crother Brown new pair Of panta-
looms. Several of the lawyers put down
sums ranging from fifty cents to ten cents.
The paper was presented to Lincoln, who
sat opposite the rear Of the advocate, who,
bending over in gesticulatiug, made quite
an exposure. Lincoln took out his pencil:

The opinion is growing that, in cattle
economy in q state Of domesticity, horns
are worse than useless. When tho animal
Dos exists in q native state, roaming over
the prairie or pampas, the formidable corn
iferous projections may be necessary for
otfense or defense, but a. appendages to
the heads Of gentle mixers their absence
may be deemed advantageous. Therefore,
SINCE the late exposition Of Paris, France,
at which the Scotch polled cattle carried of
the highest prize, efforts have been made
to introduce them into this country. The
polled Angus are, as the name indicates,
natives Of Scotland. They are black in
in color. good feeders, hardy and we'll
adapted to withstand cold winters. They
are inclined to be beefy, rather than dairy
cattle, although selections Of good dairy
cows are said to be obtainable. Hopes are
entertained that these cattle will be- very
valuable for crossing upon tho wild or ma
tive cattle Of our western plains.
