Love.

Angelic theme of ancient lays.
BY Doric hills. Athenian wales
The nations bound thy brow with bays
And famed thy cheeks with scented gales,
While golden lamps illurned thy shrines
Beside the Tiber and the Po
Till anthems thine were taught to flow
Along the Alps and Apennines.
The souls of sages and of slaves
Were willing servants unto thee
Whose rapture soothed the Grecian waves,
And kissed the islands of the sea,
Till bounding on from strand TO strand,
1t crossed the coasts and climbed the slopes
To place crown of tender hopes
Upon the vine-clad Roman land.
Great empress of that early time,
Glad ruler over gentle souls,
Each year is changed to raptured rhyme
That DER thy laughing bosom rolls;
For cycles as they sink to rest
So closely guard thy joy and truth
That sweetness and immortal youth
Give fond embraces to thy breast.
Thou goddess of the Paphian shrine,
Cytheran queen of Ions isle,
Sweet Venus from the land of wine,
The races love thy dewy smile;
While silent woods and quiet glades
Bear praises on each breeze that blows
Sweet as the breath of mornings rose
That blossoms in the sylvan shades.
Then crown, o Love, these later days
With mystic charm and secret bliss
That lived when thou vert wreathed with bays,
And nations hungered for thy kiss;
No more thy temples tower above
Yet hearts and bosoms hold thee dear;
Then come with all thy worth of cheer
And gentleness, o, wondrous Love!

A question for our cattle raisers to
take into consideration is how to man.
&c their herds so as to avoid the ,oss
of so many young calves on their
ranges in the early spring. Heretofore
herd haye allowed their bulls at large
from year to year, and the result has
been from 20 to 30 per cent. of the
cows have given birth to their calves
in the cold winter or spring months,
aud from fifteen TO twenty per cent. of
them have been lost to their owners.
We have often heard complaint of cat
tlcmen that nearly onc-fourlh Of their
cows on the range produce no calves.
Generally this has been attributed TO
the want of more bulls, bat really it
was the mismana cement Of the bulls
more than anything clfe. Just how to
manage the business so as to get a
better return is difficult problem. If
the herds were being kept i'll enclosure
il would be no serious question but
how to manage the herd upon the
range 50 as to have the calves come in
the warm weather is the important
point, This matter was once decided
by the Shonkin (Mont) association
They had arranged to take their bulls
off the range in November of each
year, and herd them in one of the big
bends of the Missouri, but owing tl
the reluctance of one of the large
owners when the time came, because
he was expecting to sell his herd, the
project fell through. Upon The range
in this vicinity the plan is practicable
and should be carried out Rocky
Mountain Hu5bandman.

An ingenious appliance il described
in the French journals, for facilitating
the miners in shafts up TO thirty
fathoms deep. A winch is placed at
the mouth OF the shaft, and is pro-
vided with rope, which makes two
turns around the barrel, while secold
rope, provided like the first, with "a
hook at each end, doubles the first by
being hitched to it. The miner, on
descending, first attaches a sack of
sand, weighing about cwt, to one
of the ends of the winch rope, and
lets it down to the bottom Of the shaft
with the end Of the second cord, which
remains attached to it; he then
passes the hook of his rope over
knot made about three feet from the
end, and takes seat by passing his leg
through the loop thus formed, after
having hitchcd on the loose end of the
second rope. In this way the endless
rope is obtained, the difference be-
tween the weight of the nan and that
of the sack of sand remaining con,
slant, lie descends slowly at first.
with the two ropes in hand, and when
the sack leaves the bottom, he goes
more quickly, but leaves tho rising
portion Of tho rope between his legs
Stacking the pace as he ncars the bot
tom he se,zcs the rising rope with his
hands and brakes himself till he stops,
then he attaches, by its ends, the rope
lie ia upon, so as 10 keep the sack sus
pended.
