Farewell old year. IA long farewell,

While "iron tongues" ring out your knell,
Farewell old friend, you too must dio.

ton was on tiptoe to know what the an
nouncement respecting the wooden shoe
could possibly mean.
At length Paganini appeared, smiling
with every appearance of renewed health
and on his favorite violin played some OF
those marvellous strains which never
failed to transport his auditors to the
seventh heaven of delight. Then he
seized the shoe, which, in its new guise
of violin, still preserved somewhat OF
its prestine form, and, his whole being
lighted with enthusiasm, he commenced
one of those wonderous appropriations
which captivated the soul of his hearers.
This first represents the departure OF
conscript, the tears, the wailings OF his
betrothed, then his stormy life in camp
and on the field of battle, and finally his
seturn, accomplished by triumphing and
rejoicing. A merry peal of wedding
bells completed the musical drama.
Long and loud were the thunders of the
applause; even the old ladies who dis
liked Paganini could not refrain from
clapping, and bouquets, thrown by fair
ard jewelled hands, fell at the feet of
the musician. In one corner of the hall
next to the door, Nicette was weeping
bitterly; the symphony of the conscript
had gone straight to her heart. At the
end of the concert the receipts were
counted. They amounted to 1000 francs.
Here, Nioette," said Paganini, "you
have 500 francs over the sum required
to furnish substitute. They will pay
your bridegroom's travelling expenses.
Then after pause he continued:
"But you will want something where
with to commence housekeeping. Take
this shoe violin, or this violin shoe. and
sell it for your dowry."
Nicette did 80, and received from q
rich amateur 5000 francs for Paganini's
wooden shoe.
It is now, we believe, il the possess
ion of an English nobleman. who was
formerly British Am bassador to Paris.

muck and stable manure. The vine is
strong grower and requires abundant
nourishment. The pods are formed quite
thickly from the top to the bottom of the
poles. They want the full benefit Of the
sun, and the rows running north and
south should be four feet apart, and the
hills four feet apart in the row. In plant.
ing we prefer to put the eye downward,
and not more than one inch deep. The
LIST of June is early enough for this lati
tude. The bean needs frequent cult
walton until the vines shade the ground.
This crop is well suited for farmers re-
mote from cities and markets. The
market gardener will not grow Lima
beans to sell dry, because they are worth
more in the green state, and he can sell
all he can raise. But the farmer, how
ever remote from the city, can market
his whole crop in the winter and be we'll
