Thy dimpled cheeks, thy jet Mack hair,

Who was driving a stout little donkey.

"There's a relation of yours in that carriage,"
To which she replied, as the donkey she spied,
"Ah, yes, a relation by marriagef

, J8g?An anecdote relative to the late
: Professor Wilson is just now circulating.
When the suitor for the hand of Pro
fessor Wilson's daughter had gained
the lady's approbation, he was, of course,
referred to papa. Having stated his,
probably, not unexpected case, the
voung gentleman was directed to tell
j c a
t nd doubtless the obedience was prompt.
"Professor Wilson had' before him for re
view, some work on which was duly in
scribed, "With the author's compli
ments." He tore this out, pinned it to
his daughter's dress, solemnly led her to
the young lover, and went back to his
work.. " , "
Bgi.Parson Brownlow and Yancey
came together at Knoxville. The Par
son wanted to know what Yancey would
do if Lincoln was elected. Yancey
wanted to know what the Parson would
do. The Parson would be one of a reg
iment to drive back the secessionists.
Yancey would be one to bayonet Brown
low if he did. Yancey told Brownlow
he was a preacher, and ought not to act
to. Brownlow pointed out to, Yancey

only difference between him and them
was that, they had been silenced for ly-

g, We once heard an old fellow, fa
mous all over the country for his tough
yarns, tell thc following. He was tellr
ing what heavy wheat he had seen
in New York: " My father," said
he, "once had a field of wheat, the
heads of which were so close together
that the wild turkeys, when thejr came
to eat it, would walk round on the top
of it anywhere." We suggested that the
turkeys must have been small ones.
"No, sir," continued he, "they were very
large ones. I shot one of them one day,
and when I took hold of his legs to carry
him, his head dragged in -the snow be
hind me.1' "A,uriou8 country you
must have had, to have snow in harvest
time!" "Well, I declare," said he, look
ing a little foolish, "J reckon I've got
part of two stories mixed!" .
THE 8HEBIVF ANUTHE WIDOW.
The following good story we heard
. lately, of which an Alabama sheriff was
the hero. Court was in session, ant
amid the multiplicity of business which
crowded upon him at term time, he stop
ped at the door of a beautiful widow, on
the sunny side of thirty, who, by the
way, had often bestowed melting glances
upon the aforesaid sheriff. He was ad
niittecL,aud the widow appeared; the con
fusion, and fright which the arrival of
her vistor occasioned set off to greater
advantage- than usual the captivating
charms-of th widow M. Her cheeks
bore the beautiful blended tints of the
apple blossom; her lips resembled the
rose buds upon wkJch the morning dew
yet lingered, and her eyes were like
quivers of Cupids, and the glances of
love and tenderness with which they
fere filled, resembled arrows that only
invited a (ran to do full execution. Af
ter a few common-place remarks:
"Madam," said the matter-of-fact
sheriff, "I have an attachment for you."
A deeper blush than usual mantled
the cheeks of the fair widow; the down
cast eyes, whose glances were centered
upon her beautiful foot, which half con
cealed by her flowing drape; y, partly
patted the floor. She, with equal can
dor, replied:
Sir, the attachment is reciprocal."
For some time the sheriff maintained
tin istonished silence; at length he said:
' Madam, will you proceed to court?"
. "Proceed to court?" replied the lady
with a merry laugh; then shaking her
head, she said: "No sir; though this is
leap year. I will not take advantage of
the? licence therein granted to my sex,
a ndy therefore, I greatly prefer that you
should, proceed to court."
"Buitj.niadata, the justice is waiting."
"Let; him wait; I am not disposed to
Hurry matters in so unbecoming a man
ner; and beside, sir, when the ceremony
is performed, I wish you to understand
I greatly prefer a viumler to a justice of
the peace."
A light suddanly dawned upon the
sheriff's brain.
"Madam," saidr. he, rising from his
chair withV solmn dignity, "there is a
i
great mistake aere; my language nag
been misunderstood. The attachment of
which I spaak was issued from the office
of j3quir and commands me to bring
you instantly before him to answer a con
tempt of f ourt in disobeying a nhjcma
in the case of Smith vs. Jones,"

How to Leant to Farm WtU.""
I am a disbeliever in anything like
instinctive knowledge. If you wish to
learn how a thing should be done, do it;
if you wish to know the result, observe
it. If you were to ask me how I would
teach a young man to farm, the only an
swer I could give you would be, I would
give him great opportunities of learning.
Now, I would venture to say, especially
to my younger hearers, if you wish to
be a successful agriculturist, learn your
business thoroughly, and set about it in
the right way. If you wish to be a good
and prosperous farmer pay attention to
little things, and however high a posi
tion you may hereafter attain, or how
ever eminent you may become as an
agriculturist, you will never repent of
the time and attention you have bestowed
upon the rudiments of your calling.
And allow me, as an old mau, whohas
hud many opportunities of observing his
own, as well as his neighbors' short
comings, to tell you what I consider con
stitutes a good man of business atten
tion to details. If any of the young
getleiuen who are doing me the honor
to listen to my remarks were to'ask me
for a motto for their guide to business,
I would give them these three words,
';Attention to details." Great things
will generally be looked after, but the
many little things which make up the
whole' are overlooked or forgotten.
Correspondent of tlie Prairie Farmer.
A JlHCbtne for Sinking Coirs.
This is the latest invention of this in
genious age. Several of the members of
the Philadelphia Agricultural Society
witnessed its operations on Tuesday.
It is thus described by the Ledger:
The machine is simple and easily
worked by children as well as by adults.
It consist of two distinct single acting
pumps, made in the form of tin basins,
placed with their bottoms a little dis
tance apart. Each pump has a rubber
head drawn over the end of the basin,
and turned inx and.to each pump are at
tached two metallic teat-cups, by elastic
joints, so as to fit the distances apart of
teats in different cows. In the bottom
of each pump is a single valve which
closes when the suction is produced and
opens to discharge the milk into the pail,
when the vacuum ceases. As the rubber
heads are drawn out by - the . levers, a
vacuum is produced which causes the
milk to flow info the pump; when they
return to their positions again the milk
passes out through the valves, - and all
pressure on the teats ceases, thus pro
ducing a remitting suction in imitation
of the natural suction of the calf. By
the use of these machines twelve quarts
of milk can be taken from a cow in two
minutes. A number of the cows were
put in the stable and milked out with
these machines to the perfect satisfaction
of all who witnessed the operation. ;
Drought in Ksrufcas. .
The Correspondent of the St. Louis
Democrat writing from Lawrence, with
date of Aug. 31st, says:
It is now rendered certain that there
will not be grain enough raised in Kan
sas this year, for food for the peeple.
In many counties the crops have been
a total failure, and the wild grass is
burned short and will not do for hay.
The extreme Southern part of the Ter
ritory "bras been ruinously dry. There
will be a little corn, and but very little,
in Douglas county, and still less in
Shawnee. The counties bordering on
the Missouri river, and the counties on
the Western border of the settlements
have fared best. In the Western part
of Kansas the grass is fresh and good,
and there will be some corn. In Leav
enworth, Atchison, poniphan, Johnson,
Lynn and Ly kins,, there is a considera-.
ble amount of corn, still the aggregate
deficiency will be very great. " In some
regions the grasshoppers appeared and
eat up everything, crops included; but
the ravages of these creatures were con
fined to certain localities. The people
of Kansas can hardly be said to have
got to farming fairly yet. The amount
of land under cultivation is not great,
and as a heavy crop was raised on our
rich soil last year with no effort, and
even amidst utter carelessness, it begot
a conviction that crops could be raised
here in any way. This is the dryest
season known since the settlement of
the Territory. Many smaller streams
have been dried up.
The Excitement of Intoxication
The love of narcotics and intoxicating
compounds is so universal, it may almost
count as an instinct. Every nation has
it in a greater or less degree; some in the
shape of opium, some of smoke, some in
snuff; but from the equator to the snow
line, it exists a trifle changed in dress,
according to the climate, but always the
same need, always the same desire.
Kings have decreed punishments on the
secular side; priests have anathematized
on the spiritual; lawmakers have sought
to pluck out the habit, root and branch,
from their people ; but all to no good
man still goes on smoking, snuffing and
chewing ; putting an enemy into his
mouth to steal away , his brains,' and
finding immense satisfaction in a prac
tice that makes him both an invalid and
a madman, and never quits him till it
has laid him fairly in the grave. Cham

Good Shooting.
The Southwestern Independent, pub
lished at Fayetteville, Ark., is responsi
ble for the following:
Ben Calaker was describing, the other
day, to Tip Onstot, the skill of a sports
man in Mississippi, with a shot-gun.
"Why," said he, "'I've seen him take
two patridges an I let them both go, one
in front and the other behind him; and
he would fire and kill the one in front,
and then whirl and kill the other."
"Did he have a double-barrel gun?"
inquired Tip.
"Of course he did."
"Well," quickly replied Tip, "I can
beat that I saw a man do the same
thing with a single barrel."

treat Sale of Land and Slaves.
The sale of two fine estates Moss'
Neck in Caroline county, and Farley
Vale in King George, Va., separated by
the Rappahannock river, together with
165 ' slaves took place last week.
Moss Neck contnns about 2,200 acres,
and was purchased by Mr. Richard Cor
bin at $33 per aere. Farley Vale, con
taining about 1,700 acres, was bought by
Mr. S. Wellford Corbin at 24 50 per
acre. The slaves sold tor the aggregate
sum of about $i20,000, averaging 8725
each, for cash.
Mode of Keeping Potatoes in the Cellar.
A correspondent of the New England
Farmer says:
"Put them in a pile as deep asyou can
conveniently." He has for three or four
years noticed that where they were deep
est they kept the best. Last autumn he
put out 125 bushels in one bin, and filled!
them two and a half or three feet deep.
They .had decayed but little, and he'
! found more rotten ones near th&top than
anywhere else.

GRAY HAIR
To its original color, by Nature's own process, is
Prof. 0. J Wood's Celebrated
HAIR RESTORATIVE-
In proof of the above assertion, read the following
testimony from distinguished persons from all
parts of the country.
Hou. Solomon Mann, Ann Arbor, Mich., says his
wife, whose hair had become very thin,' and entirely
while, was restored to its original brown color, and
thickened and become benutifut and glossy upon,
and entirely over, the head. Others of my family
and friends are using your Restorative with the hap
piest effects.
Hon.JcnoE Breese, Ex-Senator of Illinois, says my
hair was prematurely gray, but by the use of Wood's
Restorative, it has resumed its origiual color, and I
have no doubt permanently so.
Hon. H. L. Stewart, says my hair was very gray,
but after using two bottles, it restored it to its origi
ual color.. r -
Kev. J. K Braoo, Brookfleld, Mass., says it has re
moved from my head inflammation, dandruff, and a
constant tendency to itching, and restored lny hair,
which was gray, to its original color.
J. W. Davidson, Monmouth, 111., says my hair was
two-thirds gray, or rather white, but, by the appli
cation of the Restorative as directed, it has resumed
its original color.
Dr. G. Wallis, Chicago, says, after using a great
many other preparations, all to no effect, 1 used one
bottle of your Hair Restorative, which has cared a
humor in mv head of two years' standing.
Benjamin Lonoridoe, 254 Seventh Avenne, New
York, says, having lost my hair by the effects of the
Erjsipelas, when it began t grow, instead of black,
as heretofore, it was well mixed with gray. Having
tried many preparations to restore the color without
effect, I was induced to try yours, nnd in spite of all
my doubts it has bad the desired effect.
H. L. Williams, M. D., Peckensville, Ala., says, I
have used your Restorative, and Hnd it all it is rec
ommended to be. I have tried it forTeUer and find
it a certain cure.
W. M. Woodward, M. Tl., Frankfort, Ky., says, he
recommends it iu his practice as the best prepara
tion for the hair now in use. ' 1
Edward Walcott says, three months ago my hair
was very gray; i. is now a dark brown, the original
color, smooth and glossy, all by the use of Wood's
Restorative".
Wilson Kino says, one month's proper application
will restore any person's hair to its original color
and texture.
J. D. Hoes says, a few applications fastened my hair
firmly, it began to grow out and turn black, its orig
inal color.
Betsey Smith, Korth-easi Pennsylvania, says that
her hair had, for a number of years, been perfectly
white, but now It is restored to its youthful color,
soft and glossy.
Dr. J. W. Bond, St. Paul, says that his hair is
strong, thick, and black, although a short time since
ha was both bald and gray. The people here saw
its effects and have confidence in it.
Morris Goslino, M. D., St., Louis, says that after
trying manv other preparations, all to no effect, he
used two bottles, which covered his head with a new
and vigorous growth of hair, and invites all to come
and see it. ,
Sarah J. Brown says her hair was rot only gray,
but so thin she feared its entire loss but after using
two bottles it has restored both the color and growth.
