Handling Manure in Autumn.

The American AgrtcutturiSt says that
the best practice among those not provided
with abundant bara room, is to selecta level
piece of ground, aud stack the threshed
straw there year after year. The straw can
be converted into weIl-rotsed manure by
using IL literally for bs,iding In the stable 8,
and by turning the cattle to the stack; and
all things considered, this Is the m ost profit
able disposition Of the straw wnrethat not
eaten by tho cattle In tho stack yard b con-
verted into manure, aud we'll cared for.
The straw thrown under foot by the cattle
viii likely bstranpled down 50 solidiy that
if left to itself it viii not be converted into
manure in the desired time; and part Of the
stack may have to be cut down and strewn
over the yard, making necessary some effort
to hasten the rotting OF the straw. As
there is no need of handling wet manure, it
is advisable to have the mass stirred every
day for some days. before it is taken to the
fields, that it may dry out.
All the manure should be removed from
the yard before the grain is threshsd, that
the new straw may not be stacked upon it;
and the usual method of putting it upon
the winter wheat ground is good one. IL
strewn over the ground as it is plowed, the
narrowing necessary to put the seed bed In
proper condition will thoroughly fine it an
incorporate it with the soil, while it will not
be below the roots of the wheat. 1t is best
to strew it over the ground as it is hauled
out This saves one handling. Hauling
manure in it so fouls wagon box that it is
best to have another box for this and similar
uses. This is best made of loose planks-
pine, 2 inches thick and from to IL inches
wide. They are made much more con-
venient to handle by shaving down the
ends to 8 inches wide. If end boards are
desired, grooves can be cut in the side Of the
handles on the ends Of the planks, and will
be strong enough to hold the boards. II

Lee After the War.

A brief period only had passed after
the surrender at Appomattox when
offers of homes began to be pressed
upon General Lee. His family was
originally English, and he had many
relatives among titled people in the old
country, who insisted upon his coming
and sharing for a time the ease and
luxury of their homes. But he posi-
lively declined to eXpatriate himself.
NO" he said, ~ will never forsake
my people in their extremity; what
they endure l will endure, and am
ready to break my last crust with them"
And he refused to leave Virginia.
Nothing ever gave him greater pleasure
than to witness personal, strenuous
effort to overcome the disasters of the
war. To see small farmer attempting
to fence his fields with green saplings
was to him sight that made his eyes
brighten. Many homes were urged
upon him in his native state; but as
my sister, Mrs. L. r. Cooke of Cum
berland, said, when he accepted her
offer of vacant plantation adjoining
her own, which was part of her es-
tate, " he chose among these homes
one OF the most unpretending." With
furniture from her own house she
fitted up for him and his family a COM
Portable abode at Derwent," Pow
hatan county; and here he gathered
together, for the first time since they had
left Arlington, his wife and children
around him. "Never shall forget -
she said, " his unaffected gratitude and
his gracious acceptance of this simple
home / and my sons had prepared fol
him. The plantation of Derwent was
only two miles from my own, and our
great country gardens readily met the
wants of the new residents. AS saw
the beautiful simplicity with which
these trifling supplies were received, i
seemed impossible for me to realize
that this was the man upon whom thu
fate of the South had hung; that this
was the man for whom thousands were
ready TO rush to death; that this wat

Though | am not just now in the

to have deep sympathy with you in
your trials. Sympathy, but not regret;
! can't make myself feel very sorry for
Christ's disciples when he takes them
in hand. He does it so tenderly, so
wisely, so lovingly, and it can hardly
be true-can it?''-that he is just as
near and dear to me when my cup is
full of earthly blessings as it can hold
as he is to you whose cup he is empty
ing. ! have always thought they knew
and loved him best who knew him in
his character of chastiser; but perhaps
one never loses the memory of his
revelations of himself in that form, and
perhaps that tender memory saddens
and hallows the day of prosperity. At
any rate, you and seem to be in full
sympathy; your empty cup is not
empty, and my full one would be bitter

Resigning the Rudder.

1t was prayer of George Herbert's
that he might wholly be led to resign
the rudder of his life to the sacred will
of God, to be moved "as thy love shall
sway" How much fretting, how much
worry it would spare us all if we asked
our Heavenly Father that he would
cause us to lean utterly, in perfect
faith, in cheerful, unquestioning obedi-
ence, upon his will and wisdom,
whether in life's trivial concerns or in
those shades of darkness from which
we recoil in fear We can ask him
nothing beyond his power; some of us
know the feeling, "In all but this |
could say, thy will be done;'" but if
we will only tell the story at his feet,
pouring out our hearts before him, we
shall be able to trust our Father, even
to rejoice in him, through every change
full pathway. Not long ago Christian
visitor called upon poor woman who
had Just been told by the matron of the
hospital of the iucurable nature of her
complaint. The poor sufferer tearfully
declared she accepted Gods will pa
tiently so far as her own pain and
death were concerned, but she could
not bear the thought of her motherless
children. Nobody could induce her, she
said, as concerned the children, to feel
patient and resigned. 1t was painful
scene. The visitor could not remon-
strate with her upon her spirit of inpa-
thence and murmuring, but felt as
though she must weep with her, as she
said Yours is untold sorrow, beyond
my understanding even, but God knows
all about it-God understands. Will
you not tell him just how you feel-tell
him what you have told me-all your
pain, anxiety and dread of leaving
your little ones alone? | am going
now to tell the leader of our prayer
meeting about you; tomorrow, from
three to half-past, prayers will arise on
your behalf; will you not at the same
time be on your knees before God and
tell him alp" The sufferer promised.
Next day, relates the visitor, earnest,
pleading supplications laid her case be-
fore God, and what was the result?
The next interview found that woman
as calm as she had been impatient; she
had poured out her own heart in
prayer, and others had prayed for her,
and she told the visitor: " am just
leaving everything with God-not only
whether live or die, but each of my
little children. Everything is safe with
him; | feel i'll know it," Verify
our God is the same now as in past
ages - prayer-hearing, prayer-answer-
ing.-The Quiuer.

people, black as well as white, to see
the general was intense, for this was
but few weeks after the surrender.
He walked quietly into the store, and
was engaged with its proprietor in talk
about the prospects of the crops, and
such like things, when the place began
to be crowded by the country people,
intent upon catching glimpse of the
great commander. He seemed not to
observe them at first; but turning
round, and noticing the press about
him, he said, in an apologize way,
All, Mr.. Palmer, pardon me for keep
ing you talking about corn and tobacco
so long, for see am OBTAINING you

slightest consciousness that the crowd

The London Lancet assures its read
ers that felons will yield to the follow
ing treatment: AS soon as the pulsation
which indicates disease is felt put di-
rectly over the spot fly-blister about
the size of your thumb-nail, and let it
remain for about six hours, at the ex-
piration of which time, directly under
the surface of the blister may be seen
the felon, which can be easily taken
out with needle or a knife.
