Farm ana Garden Notes.

Plant plenty of seed in the garden.
Use plenty of line in the orchard and
around the vines.
SCOT is an excellent starter for corn,
as it is rich in nitrogen.
New celery seed has a faint tinge of
green, and is very aromatic.
Money economically spent in draining
wet places may lift a mortgage from a
farm.
Beet seed has a faint tinge of pale
green if new, but is very dull brown if it
is old, and its vitality is very doubtful
when old.
Lampblack mixed with strong vine
gar is said to make a paint for marking
sheep that will not injure the wool and
will remain for a year.
Soft wooded plants should always be
placed nearest the light, while hard,
smooth -leaved ones Will not suffer in
quite shaded situations.
The Rural Workman says a ~teaspoonful
of coal oil poured into the wound made
by peach borcrs in the body or limbs of
trees is sure death to the borer.
Leaf mold, rotted COW manure and
Bood Saruen loan IN equal parts, with a
small addition Of sand, we'll mixed up
together, make a very suitable soil for
nearly all plants.
A wise observer has said: Ten success
siye wheat crops will plaster a mortgage
on the farm, under which the owner
must abdicate. In other words, ten sue
cessive wheat crops will run the owner
heavily in debt.
1t is not always the darkest green in
he growing wheat that gives the best
harvest. A slaty blue cast indicates a
soil too wet, a dark corn green, soft
heavy straw. The true wheat color is a
lightish green, even in its color over the
field.
1t is unfortunate when the character
and fertility of a field is not nearly uni
form in its several parts. With uniform
ity of soil the crop will ripen SO that all
can be harvested together, and this with
machinery run by horse power is a great
advantage.
The wood of certain birches, notably
the black species, is coming more and
more in use in the United States for
cabinet and finishing work. Under
special treatment it is one of our most
beautiful woods. In Europe it is specially
priced in cabinet work.

Captured by Stonewall Jackson.

Riding in advance of his skirmish
line through the swamp, attended by a
few staff officers, General Jackson found
himself in the presence of fifteen or
twenty Federal soldiers on outpost duty.
He judged it the part Of prudence to as
sumo the offensive and charge upon
them before they dared fire upon him.
| am indebted to Major r. o. C~nestney,
then assistant ad acknowledgement of Elzey's
brigade for the following account: GAS
EIzey's brigade was pressing forward to
the line held by the Confederates at tine
bloody battle of Gaines's Mill, a squad
of fifteen to twenty soldiers were en-
countered on their way to the rear. A
tall fellow at the head of the little party
drew special attention to himself by
singing out to us at the top of his voice
with an oath, Gentlemen we had the
honor of being captured by Stonewall
Jackson himself"-a statement which he
repeated with evident pride all along the
line, as our men tramped past. We sub
sequently learned that his story was true.
General Jackson, having ridden some
distance in advance, had como suddenly
upon the bluecoats, and with his charac-
teristic %impetuosity had charged among
them and ordered them to surrender,
winch they made haste to do. - General
d. III. HaH, in tile Century.

NEAR THE DAWN.

~
When LIES troubles gather darkly
Round tho way we follow here,
When no hope the sad heart lightens---
No voice speaks word of cheer;
Then the thought the shadow scatters,
Giving us a cheering ray
When the night appears the darkest,
Morning is not far away.
When adversely surrounds us,
And our sunshine friends pass by,
And the dreams so iondly cherished
With our scattered treasures lie;
Then amid such gloomy seasons,
This sweet thought can yet be drawn,
When the darkest hour Is present
II Is always near the dawn.
When the spirit tiu,tering fingers
On the confines Of this life,
Parting from all joyful memories,
And from every scene Ut strife.
Though the scene is sad and gloomy.
And the body shrinks in ioar,
Those dark hours will soon be vanished,
And the glorious morn be hero.
Pain cannot affect us always,
Brighter days will soon be here,
Sorrow may Cypress us often,
Yet happier time is near;
All along ur.earthlv journey
This reflection lights our way,
Natures darkest hour is always
Just before the break of day.
