"If shine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give

A slave in one of tho West India
Islands, -ho had been . brought from
Afrlck, became a Christian, and behaved
to Well, that his master raised him to a
situation of trust on his estate. ' He once
cuiplojed him to select twenty slaves in
tho market,' yith the view of making a
purchaser ., ; '.'
W hile looking . at somo : who - were
offered, he perceived an old broken

prised, and at first refused; but the slave
begged so hard that his wish, might Dt

AGRICULTURAL.
filtn Grass Laud, f " - , ? T $
As a stimulant, as well as beinsr of
prominent value, we have found sowing
from five to eight bushels of salt to the
acre, to increase our grass crop often
more largely than the same, or even an
increased quantity of plaster.
Cut Back your Roses.
After a practice of fourteen years, we
unhesitatingly say that we have always
L obtained the best blooris, and the most
in number, where we cut our perpetual
blooming varieties of the rose down to
two buds from the ground. This is the
time to do it. ti . .
Graft lug Grape .
Last season we tried the experiment
of grafting some hundreds of choice
grapes on pieces of roots of the wild
vine, in the same manner as generally
practised ,by nurserymen in grafting the
apple. Our success was complete; all
grew, and many made growths of two to
four feet.
Plant Peas Deep
i Peas should be planted four to eight
inches deep, according to the soil the
lighter the soil the deeper the planting;
and the ground, in hoeing, kept level,
will produce more,1- come just aa early,
and bear longer than if planted accord
ing to the old rule ' of two inches, and
afterward earthed up in hoeing. Try it.

Profit of Growing Fruit for Market.
'Item after item has been repeatedly
published, illustrating the profitableness
of growing fruits for sale. Thousands
on thousands of trees are annually
planted out, and yet the demand for fruit
is not half supplied. . Recently, the fruit
growers of Eastern Pennsylvania organ
ized a society, and at their first meeting,
pending discussion upon this subject, of
the profit derived ; TrOm, fruit growing,
the Gardetiers' Monthly reports the fol
lowirigM among the items of what have
been the returns obtained by some of the
members th n present: One man last
yaar received.. $250, from one-fourth of
an acre j of strawberries; another $350
fro.m. one and a half acre, "another; pro
duced 28 quarts of strawberries from
60J square feet.
Mr. Ellwangor says, ia the last Horti
cuUuristfiiaA an acre of Louia Bonne
de J ersey Pears "dwarfs five to six
feet apart, will yield on . an , average,
81000 per year. -"v; -
A. frietjd.of ours in Missouri, last sea
son sold tho product of an apple tree, in
its fourth year of bearing, for over $17.
And another sold the products from two
acres of New ILochelle, or Lawton
Blackberries, 'for .over $600. With
these, and a thousand more similar in
stances that we could name, staring
people in the face,, the cities will con
tinue to increase in population and in
consequent demand for fruits, faster
than growers can supply them. So it
has been, and so it will continue to be.

Beauties of Slavery. 1 : i
"A Mississippi gentleman came to this
State (Missouri) to supply his plantation,
and made hi3 headquarters in this city
(St. Louis.) Among the: two or three
dozen he bought was a little girl about
nine years old, whose complexion was as
fair as the average number of white chil
dren. She attracted some attention, and
the purchaser related her history. She
was the child of a handsome mulatto
woman, and her father was the Hon. Mr.
, member of Congress from this
State. Her mother was not the slave of
Mr. , but owned by a neighbor, for
I believe that it is the custom among the
patriarchs to exchange eivilities of this
kind. A strange coincidence happened
in bringing her. to this city . She came with
others in a steamboat with her master,
and among the passengers was her fath
er. He conversed with her ewner about
her, and) said he would have bought her
himself, were it not for his wife. I had
this, information from the owner of the
girl. The girl was kept in a slave pen
on Sixth street,, and was visited by num
bers who learned her history." The pur
chaser was a very respectable gentleman,
who bought her tor a nurse in his fami
ly. But who can guess her destiny?
Here was a child of tender years, ap
parently white, herding with a lot of
common negroes, torn from hermother,
and doomed to a Mississippi plantation,
while, her lather, in the august Senate ol
the,United States, declaims for liberty.
He stands cooly by while his own child,
bearing his own lineaments, is taken for
cibly from her mother and "driven of
with a gang of slaves, to a distant land,
among strangers, never again to know a
mother's love or caress, but to be thence
forth the victim to. a tyrant's lash or lust.
She is the innocent profert and proof of
his own faithlessness to solemn vows,
and must be removed to a safe distance.

Opium Eating,
It is said that opium eating is increas

Certain nervous lawyersand even judges,
resort to opium eating as a stimulus
thus demonstrating continually that the
race of fools is not yet extinct, nor likely
to be shortly. . -..-i , t:

PHARMACY-Y
DR. nOBACK'S
SCANDINAVIAN REMEDIES.
WHEN DR. ROBACK, the celebrated Swedish
Physician, introduced his Blood Purifier and
Blood Pills in the United States, he set forth in plaia .
language their curative properties. This was year
ago. The task of recommending them has since-"
been taken out of his hands. Enlightened1 rtlfciT
whose character for sound Judgment and philosophy r
srives their oninions weight in tna cnmmnililV.-itten
who observe, reflect, and make "assurance doubly
sure" before they decide are everywhere ap
proving and urging the use of these wonderful Prep
arations. All who confide in ths wisdom and hon
esty of this class, or who choose to investigate for'
themselves are now of one mind on this important
subject. i
Dr. Roback Invites tbe attention of the sick to the '
Original Letters, " '
from members of the Medical Profession, Editors of
public journals, well known Merchantsand Farmers, '
and Ladies of tho highest respectability, giving ae- '
i-uuuLs ui vAtrnuriiiiiary cures wrougnt oy me romo-,
die, of which cures thoy themselves were .
Eye- -.Witnesses.' rr.. : ,' .! .
These parties may be consulted personally or by
letter, by those who have any doubt upon the sub
ject. The evidence in the possession of Dr. Roback,
winch is at all times accessible to tbe nubile. t-alnD-

FACTS: 'I' '
That the" Bloo.l Purifier" and "Blood Pills" have
been proved by analysis to '
(Jm.itain no Mineral;
That they cure the almost universal complaint, '
1yspepsta, - -
with unerring certainty, and in very abort time. ;
That after all other medicines have proved useless,
they relieve -.:.?.
Liver Complaint, : .
and restore the health and strength of the sufferer. '
IDS - v .. ..... :
Sick Females,
who have languished for years in helpless weaknesa '
and despondency, recuperate with great rapidity
under their invigorating operation, l hat alt sexual
disabilities are removed by their cordial and gently
stimulating piopertios. That thoy recruit. .
Slialtered Constitutions,
however tbey may have been trifled with and abused;
mat meir aireel tendency is to lengthen lire, and .
render it enjoyable. That, operating directly noon '
tbe poisonous disease iq the blood, they . . s - - , - ;
Cause Soon to Heal, ' .. -,
and discharge from the system, every taint of Scrof
ula, whether hereditary or otherwise. That they
Recruit the Debilitated,' :
and that there is no disease of the Stomach and Bow
els, the liver, the nervous system, the skin, glands or
mufcles, arisino from impurities op Tni blood aro .
secretions, in which they do not give prompt relief,
and, (ir administered oerore ine very citadel or ine
has been invaded,) effect painless and perfect cure.
Bear In mdid that the "Scandinavian Vegetable :
Blood Pills" are endorsed by experience ( thou
sands of living witnesses, who, in letters, affldaMUa, j
medical works, and by word or mouth, proclaim,
them to be the very best preparation of the kind ever-
offered to the broken-down victims of ill-health.
They hunt disease through every avenue and organ '
of the system, and to expel it thoroughly and perma- .
oently. - - " -
no-one can doubt their superiority arterone single
trial they are not only better, but. in fact, cheaper
than any other Pills, for it takes a less number of
them to produce a better effect. :
