"To-morrow, ma. Tin sweet sixteen!
And Billy Grimes, the drover,
Hai 'popped the question' to me, ma.
And wants to be my lover!
To-morrow corn, he"fay, rcamma,
He's coming here qui'e early.
To taie aplearant walk with vr.e
Across thefidiof barley."
"You must not go, my daughter dear.
There's no u:e now a talking;
Yea shall not go across the Cell
With Billy Grimes a-walking.
To think of his presumption, too!
The ditty, ugly drover!
X wonder where your pride has gone,
To think cf such a rover!"
"Old Grime is de.id," you know, mamma,"
And Billy is so lonely!
Besides, they say, to Grimes' estate,
That Billy is tie only
Surviving heir to nil that's left;
And that they say is nearly
A good ten thousand dollars, ma
About six huuered yearly."
"0, now 1 hear, my daughter dear.
Your last remark quite clearly,
Well, Billy is r; clever lad,
And no doul-t loves jou dearly!
Remember, then, to morrow morn.
Tobe up bright and early.
To take a pleasant walk with him,
Across tie field of barley.'

Just see how-wicked men induce their wives
to let them go to the goll diggings, by work

There is a wicked man I know,
H coaxed his wife to let him 50,
But this is the way he did it though
To get to California:
Says he I'll send you lumps of cold.
Much more than your two hands can hold;
In yovr own carriage you'll be rolled.
Says she Now love, you know, my dear,
1 cannot Iii e without you here,
Bat one's own carriage sounds so.queer!
You may go California.

SaviNG Time. A minister who had
considerable of a farm, as was generally
,r;ie in our forefathers' days, went
jut to see one of his laborers, who was
ploughing in the field, and he found him
fitting on hi? plough, resting his team.
'John,' said he, 'would it not be a
good plan for you to have a stub scythe
here, and be cutting a few bushes while
the oxen are resting?

PLUM TREES.
Luke Wyman, Jr., of West Cambridge,
Mass., is celebrated for his Flum Or
chards, from which he has wholly extir
pated the warts or knotty excresences
that so often disfigure this tree. He
breaks the ground up about the trees in
the füll; in the spring following about
two pail-fulls of drainage of the cess
pool, with half a bushel of good new
loam, must be spread about the roots, ad
ding also three pints of common salt.
None of this composition must touch
the bark or roots of the tree, but spread
about the tree in a circle of two or three
feet in diameter. At the first flow of
the sap in thespiing, pare the knotty
excresences smoothly down to the natu
ral dimensions of the limb. Salt is a
great fertilizer of Plum trees, and may
he applied to advantage, in small quali
ties, at almost any time.
PROFITS OF POULTRY RAISING.
Col. Minot Thayer, at the late Poultry
Convention, hold in JJoston, stated that
he had been engaged in Poultry raising
for 15 years. His farm consisted of
200 acres, and was acknowledged to be a
good one, yet with an outlay of $'25,
in connection with his fowl department,
he derived more profit than from all
the rest of his farm. It was his opin
ion that good policy required the keep
ing of but few fowls; he usually hai not
more than 10.0; with two acres of land
and a running brook, that number would
be very productive. His practice was to
have two or three- houses in which to
shelter them in winter; these houses
were made of stone on three sides. It
was necessary, he said, to give the hens
meat or fish in the winter when they
would lay eggs as freely as in summer.'
Mr. Giles, of Providence, said that
200 or 300 fowls might be kept on two or
three acres of land. Their houses should
be cleaned as often as once a week, and
a little slackened lime strewed in them.
Mr. Giles was of the opinion that
the Dorking and white Shanghae are the
the most profitable fowls.
Leaves as ITIaiuire.
Leaves, buds, and lender branches are
peculiarly rich i: the vegetable alkali;
I besi les which they contain other organic
elements, derived from the soil, enrich
ing its surface, tending to prevent its
exhaustion, or when newly applied that
is to other ground to enrich it more
than superficially.
Leaves and the remark is applicable
to the tender branches also seem desti
ned by nature for the manure of the for
est land and indeed of ground generally
wherever trees grow. The roots collec
the in-organic elements essential to veg
etation, from the soil, penetrating deep
ly and widely; the leaves detain and
store up a certai-i portion of them with
other elements derived from the atmos
phere, such as are required for their
growth; and these returned to the soil
with the fall of the leaf, and there un
dergoing decomposition, are. ready to be
appropriated again, and re-administered
to the process of vegetable' growth.

Potatoes. A correspondent, at Swe
den, (Me.,) writes to inquire the cause
of rot in potatoes as for a remedy he
has tried a gill of salt and a little plas
ter, on each hill. Iiis potatoes have not
rotted, while all the fields around him
were very badly affected. He is not a
ware thatProvidence has interfered to fa
vor him, as he is uncertain whether his
success is owing to salt, to plaster, to
both united, to a new soil, to a want of
bam manure, or to a mixture of various
kinds of potatoes on planting. Mass

As education is the cheap cei

gent ot custom and profit to men in all
kinds of business. It is a moving tign

A PRACTICAL JOKE.
A eentleman of considerable talent as j A
0 . ....... r
an OTator become a member of the legis
lative body, in one the Eastern States.
In speaking he was addicted to an old
habit of handling his spectacles; first
placing them on his nose, suffering tin in
to remain a minute or two, throwing
the'm upon his forehead, and finally fold
ing them up and laying them before him
on the desk. One nay a very important
question came up for consideration, and
he commenced a speech in opposition.
A friend to the proposed measure, wi.o
was a most mcorragible wag withal, de
termined to spoil the effect cf the honor
able member's remarks, and accordingly,
before he entered the house, provided
himself with a dozen pair of spectacle?;
the member commenced his speech with
his usual ability. But a few minutes
had elapsed before he was at work with
his spectacles and finally got them upon
his forehead. At this juncture our wag.
who stood ready, laid another pair upon
the desk before the speaker. These were
taken up, and by gradual gradations,
gained a place upon his forehead, by the
side of other, A third, fourth and fifth
pair were disposed of the same manner.
A smile settled upon the countenances of
the honorable members, which gradually
enlightened into a grin, and at last, when
the speaker had warmed into o:e ofh's
most patriotic sentences, he deposited a
sixth pair with the others, and there was
one long and loud peal of laughter from
all quarters of the hall presidents, clerks
and members joining in the chorus. The
speaker looked around him in astonish
ment at this curious interruption; b it
raising his hand, he grasped the specta
cles and the whole force of the joke rush
ed upon his mind. He dashed the glas
ses upon the floor, took his hat and left
the hall. The bill passed by a triumph
ant majority, probably in consequence
of the gentleman's silly and useless hub
it. Abuse of the Fränking Privilege.
Some, twelve or thirteen bags of mail
matter, weighing upwards of thirteen
hundred pounds, all going to Mr. Senator
Borland, of Arkansas, under his own
frank, went from our own City Post Of-
ice to the mail-boat going south this
morning. inc postage on mis single iui
of books, &c, which this honorable Sen
ator Iihs franked to himself, would a-
mount to two or three, hundred dollars,
so the people can see the manner in which
Uncle Sam is made to bleed by those
who are the foremost in crjing out against
the irregularity of the mails. Such abu
ses as these ought to stimulate the peo
ple to demand that the franking privilege;
be taken away
altogether. Louisville
Courier.
Curious Decision. The lawyers in
New York must write a miserable scrawl,
judging from the following laconic decis
ion made by Judge Edmonds, on Satur
day week:
Bloodgood vs. Trow. being unable,
to find out from the papers, what the
parties want, or what they are after, the
motion, whatever it is, must be denied.
Myers & Co., vs. lluntly. A motion
to change place of trial denied, mainly
because the ntoving papers are so illegi
ble that ther cannot be read.
YOUNG LADIES !
Never marry a man who treats his
mother or sister unkindly or indillcrent-
ly;such treatment is a sure indication of
a mean and wicked heart. A young
man guilty of such meanness will never
make a good husband. When you see
a young man who is affectionate to his
aged mother and sisters, attentive to all
their wants with filial love and tender
ness, virtuous and lovely in his deport
ment, fear not; his worth is above rubies.
Why is a tailor called the nith part of
a man? Uccause 'money makes the man,'
and tailors never get more than a ninth
part of what is due them.
True politeness is perfect easa and
freedom. It simply consists in treating
others as you wonld lore to be treated
