    THE SILENTLY rALLN SNOW.
In flakes of a feathery
'Tia falling so gontfy and slow ;
Oh, pleasant to me Ir the sight.
When silently falling the snow,
Snow, snow, snow,
When silently falling the snow.
The earth is all covered to-day
With mantle of radiant show ;
It sparkles and tliines in the ray,
In crystals of glittering snow,
Snow, snow, snow,
In crystals of glittering snow.
Oh, happy the snow-birds I sec,
While hopping sd flittering they go ;
They tell of a lesson to me.
While feeding in beautiful snow,
Snow, snow, snow.
While feeding in beautiful snow.
The trees have a harden of white,
It covers their branches, I know,
It never forsakes them by night,
All day are they playing with anew.
Snow, snow, snow,
All day are they playing with snow.
THE KITCHEN* GARDEN.
It it well khown to our readers that for many
years we have given them line upon line and
precept upon precept on the necessity of pro
viding for each family a good-sized spot of
ground, well fenced in, for a kitchen garden.
There never should be less than half an acre. J
but an aero would be more appropriate, in
which every*desirable, substantial vegetable
should be cultivated.
It has been a too common oversight of
farmers to neglect the garden. From the
eighth to the sixteenth of an acre is usually
set apart, which contains a few currant and
gooseberry bushes, perhaps a pear tree or
two, a hop vine, a lilac bush, &c., and the
season's crop, a few onions, beets, parsnips,
a small bed of lettuce, eaten in the plant,
when grown a few inches high, instead of be
ing transplanted single to head, as it ought to
be; —a few radishes, some beans to cook
green, cabbage only for fall and winter use,
&c. The worst of it is, usually but a single
planting of each is made, affording only a
momentary supply, followed by an intermis
sion of fifty weeks in every year.
We contend that thehalf acre or acre which
ought to be devoted to agarden on every farm,
is the most valuable portion of the whole
plantation ; and that it will afford more profit
and comfort than any other space of thesame
size.
There should be in this garden every good
vegetable, and there should be a succession of
crops of all the most desirable kinds, from the
beginning to the endof the season. It should
be provided also with ail the finer varieties of
small fruits.
If the regular farm force should not be
sufficient to dig and prepare the garden, a
person should be hired for a few days—and
then the wives and daughters can do the sow
ing, planting, weeding, Ac., and will always
take care to make the best nse of the ground.
The farmer, if anybody, Bhould enjoy the
fruits of the soil in their perfection—and we
trust that those who are still lagging behind
in this respect, will turn over a new leaf.—
Germantovm Telegraph.
PLANTING CUTTINGS.
We arc constantly hearing people say that
they, have no luck in making grape or other
cuttings grow —just as if "luck" had anything
to do with it. They fail in not giving due at- j
tention to the matter; in other words, the
cause in neglect and indifference. The old
adage should never be forgotten, apply it
wheresoever we may —"A thing that is worth
doing at all is worth doing well."
There should be properly two eyes to every
cutting: then dig a trench —set the cuttings a,,
an angle of 45 degrees (at least six inches
apart) so that the upper eye shall be an inch
above the ground—and press the earth around
the wood firmly with the foot. It is well to
mulch them with grass or straw, and if need
be water them occasionally in tkc dryesl
weather. This is of course for the farmet
and amateur. The nurseryman propagates
froma single eye, stack together as closely
as possible.
Some varieties of the grape are propaga
ted much more freely than others. For in
stance the Concord, Maxatawny, Hartford
Prolific, Telegraph, Clinton, Cassiday, Ac.,
take root readily; while the Delaware and
Diana are difficult to propagate in open cul
ture unless great care is paid to them, and a
good portion of wood is used.
We all know how easily currants and goose
berries are thus grown. We have had both
the latter to bear the year after setting out.
Currants and gooseberries should be set out
just where they are wished to stand perma
nently.—lf you prefer a tree, cut out all the
eyes beneath the surface of the ground; if a
bush, let the eyes remain. These cuttings
ought to be planted at least eight inches deep
and the earth pressed firmly around them.
A large proportion of flowering shrnbs can
also bo propagated by cuttings—and this
should be known by all who have "luck" in
multiplying their stock in this way.—Ger
mantovn Telegraph.

ences in the family as educators, that we con
sider them quite as important as objects of
utility. Indeed, we should prefer to spare
some of the necessaries of life, rather than
miss the articles of taste that speak to us
daily from the walls of our home. They are
not only beautiful in themselves, but they re
mind us pleasantly of the friends who have
thought of us at onr household anniversaries
Costly pictures and splendid upholstery are
well eHOugh for those who can afford them,
bat those who possess them are not always
people of taste, and they are by no means es
sential to the cultivation of taste in us. We
may have beauty of form and color on a small
scale and inexpensive material, that shall
kindle the imagination and give pleasure to
the feelings quite a3 effectively as the gems of
art. The homes of many who have a com
petence are utterly bare of ornament. Noth
ing is done, nothing is seeD within to ad
minister to our esthetic wants. The whole
aspect is cheerless, and one escapes to the
sunshine and verdure without, with a feeling
of relief. It ig worth much to children to
have around them objects of refinement and
taste, to cultivate in them an appreciation of
the beautiful. It greatly hel pa the formation
of habits of neatness and order in them and
tends to make home cheerful and happy*

Artemus Ward said that the man who wrote
"I'm saddest when I sing," was a fool to
sing much.
FIVE WOMEN are editorsof papers in lowa.
An exchange remarks that woman has some
of her "writes" in that State.
A young lady was told by a married iady
that she had better piecipitate herself off the
Niagara Falls into the basin beneath than
marry. The young lady replied:—"l would

"PAP, 1 planted some potatoes in our gar
den," said a smart youth to his father, "and
what do you think came up."
"Why, potatoes, of course."
"No sir ee ! there come up a drove of hogs
and ate them all."
"DENNIS, did you hear the thunder last
night?" "No, Pat; did it really thunder?"
"Yes, it thundered as if hiven and airth had
come together." Why in-the divil, then, didn't
ye wake me, for ye know I can't sleep when
it thunders."
A LADY having spoken sharply to Dr.
| Parr, apologized by saying : "It is the privile
ge of women to talk nonsense." "No, madam,
it is their infirmity. Ducks would walk if
they could, but Nature suffers them only to
waddle."
"Hau-o, steward!" exclaimed a fellow
on one of the steamboats after having retired
to bed, "hallo, steward." "What, massa?"
"I want to see if these bedbugs put down
their names for this berth before 1 did. If
not, I want them turned out."
A Srcrii) FELLOW tried to annoy a popular
preacher by asking him whether the fatted
calf of the parable was male or female. "Fe
male, to be sure,' was the reply; "for 1 see
the male*" looking his questioner full iu the
face, "yet alive in the flesh before me."
A MAX who was a great stickler for eti
quette, having married a widow before her
period of mourning had expired, soon after
made his appearance with a weed on his hat
On being spoken to on such singular conduct,
be remarked that he considered it no more
than the handsome thing towards his lumented
predecessor,"
"I WAS never on intimate terms with the
prisoner," said a burglar who was used as
State's evidence against a "pal." "He was
no gentleman I have known him, when he
was robbing a house, to drink a gentleman's
champagne, and go off with his silver, without
leaving a card of thanks on the dining
table. He brought discredit on tbo profes
sion."
A TEACHER asked a bright little girl, "'What
country was opposite us on the globe?"
"Don't know, sir," was the answer. "Well,
now," pursued the teacher, "If I were to bore
a hole through the earth, and you were to go
in at this end, where would you come out?"
"Out of the hole, sir," replied, the pupil,
with an air of triumph.
A COVNTKY EDITOR, noticing the decease
of a wealthy gentleman, observed: "lie has
died regretted by a numerous circle of friends,
' and leaving a widow as disconsolate as any
widow need be who has obtained the uncon
trolled possession of S.IOOO per annum.
More than twenty young men have sent letters
of condolence to her."
Ax urchin unconsciously perpetrated a
great joke at the expense of bis teacher, the
other day. The lady was announcing to her
pupils the holidays on the 22d of February,
and asked them some questions concerning
its observance—among others, wbv the
birthday of Washington should be celebrated
more than that of aiiy one else. "Why,"
she added, "more than mine: you may tell
me," she said to a little fellow eagor to ex
plain. "Because," he exclaimed with great
vivacity, " because he never told a lie."
Too LATE. —A few days ago the agent of an
accident insurance company entered a smok
ing car on a Western railroad, and approach
ing an exceedingly gruff old man, asked him
if he did not want to take out a policy. He
was told to get out with his policy, and pass
ed on, After riding about half an hour an
accident occured to the train, and the smok
ing-car ran over the sleepers, causing much
consternation among the passengers. The
old man jumped up, and seizing a hook at
side of the car to steady himself, called out.
" Where is that insurance man?', The ques
tion caused a roar of laughter among the pas
sengers, who for the time forgot their dan
ger.
A PLAIN ANSWER. —Among the people who
came to our market the other afternoon was a
citizen of west Jersey. He brought a stock
of eggs and butter. In a big coop in the
rearmost part of his wagon he had a splendid
peacock, whose tail spread out, beautiful even
to gorgeousoess, like the trail of a lady's
dress. AN Irishman passing, he observed
tr.e splendid plumage oi tne bird, and asked
the price.
"Thee can have it for fifteen dollars," was
the reply of the owner, whose garb indicated
him as a member of the Society of Friends.
"That's a good price," was the interroga
tive remark of the Celt, as he smoothed the
ample tail of the feathered biped.
"There are plenty of people who will give
that for him," was the placid and very true
rejoinder.
The Celt surveyed the bird, admired his
proportions, but still endeavored to cheapen
him. "Mister," said he, at last, to the grave
gentleman who held the bird for sale, "Mister,
peoply say that these birds have a very bad
voice."
"I have nothing to say about their voice."
was the quiet reply. " If thee wants the fowl
thee can take it; if thee doesn't, it's voice
doesn't make any matter to thee."
"But," says the Celt, "don't thim birds
holler like the devil ?"
"Friend," was the placid reply, "thee
probably in that respect has an advantage
over me. Thee evidently has acquaintances
that I have not If thee thinks that the
scream of- this bird is like to that of
thy friend, whom thee has named, I, in my
ignorance, will not presume to contradict
thee."
The next minute the Celt was at an oppo
site stall in the market baying a ten cent
bunch of carrots. He bought no peacock on
that day.
