From the New York Tribune. WHAT I KNOW OF FARMING. R HORACE C.REFI.EY Good and Bud Husbandly Necessity is the mastep of us all. A farmer ; may be as strenous for deep plowing as I am —may firmly believe that the soil should be thoroughly broken up and pulverized to a depth of fifteen to thirty inches, according to j tbe crop; but, if all the team he cau muster ' is a yoke of thin, light steers, cr a span of ■ old, spavined horses, which have not even a speaking acquaintance with grain, what shall he do? So be may heartily wish he had a thousand loads of barn-yard manure, and know how to make a good use of every ounce of it; but, il be has it not. and is not able to j buy it, he can't always afTc-d to forbear sow ing and planting, and so, because he cannot secure great crops, do without any crops at all. If be does the best he can, what better j can be do ? Again : Many farmers have fields that must j await the pleasure ol Nature to fit them for j thorough cultivation. Here is a field—some times a whole farm—which, il partially di- 1 vested of the primitive forest, is still thickly 1 dotted with obstinate stumps and filled with ' green, tenacious, roots, which could only be ; removed at a heavy, perhaps ruinous cost. A rich man might order them ail dug out in j a mouth, and see bis order fully obeyed: but, except to clear a spot for a garden or under 1 very peculiar circumstances, it would not pay; j and a poor man cannot afford to incur a heavy | expense merely for appearance's sake, or to make a theatrical display of energy. It tbe i great majority of cases, be who farms lor a living can't afford to pull green stumps, but must put his newly cleared land into grass at the earliest day, mow the smoother and pas ture the rougher portion of it, and wait for rain and drouth, heat and frost, to rot his ! stumps until they can easily be pulled or burn ed out as they stand- So with regard to a process I detest, known as Pasturing. I do firmly believe that the lime is at band when nearly all tbe food of cattle will, in our Eastern and Middle States, be cut and fed totbem—that we can't afford much longer, even if we can at present, to let J '.hem roam at will over hill anu dale, through meadow and forest, biting off the better plants ' and letting the worse go to seed: often poach ing up the soft, wet soil, especially in Spring, ■ so that their hoofs destroy as much as the; cat; nipping and often killing in their infan- j cy the finest trees, such as the Sugar Maple, and leaving only such as Hemlock, Red Oak. Beech, Ac., to attain maturity. Our race generally emerged from savageism and squal or into industry, comfort and thrift, through ihe Pastorial condition—the herding, taming, rearing and training of animals beiug that department of husbandry to which barbarians are mostly easily attracted : hence, we cling to Pasturing long after the reason for it has vanished. The radical, incurable vice of Pas- ' taring—that of devouring the better plants and leaving the worse to form and diffuse seed—cau never be wholly obviated ; and 1 deem it safe to estimate that almost any farm will carry twice as much stock if their food be mainly cut and fed to them as it will if! they are required to pick it up where and as i it grows or grew. lam sure that the gener- i al adoption of Soiling instead of Pasturing j will add immensely to the annual product, to j the wealth, and to the population, of out old- ; er States. And vet, I know right well that many farms are now so rough and otherwise so onsuited to Soiling as to preclude its adop tion thereon for many years to come. Let me indicate what I mean by Good Farming, through an illustration drawn from the Great West: All over the settled portions of the Valley of the Upper Mississippi and the Missouri there are large and small herds of cattle, that are provided with little or no shelter. The lea of a fence or stack, the partial protection of a young and leafless wood, they may chance ] to enjoy: but that it is a ruinous waste to leave i them a prey to biting frosts ,d piercing north \ westers, their owners seem not to compre- | bend. Many farmers far above want will this I W inter feed out fields of Corn and stacks of Hay to herds of cattle that will not be one j pound heavier on the Ist of May next than ' they were on the Ist of December last—who j will have required that fodder merely to pre- I serve their vitality and escape freezing to ; death. It has maialy been employed a.' fuel rather than as nourishment, and has served, | not to put ou flesh, but to keep out frost. Now I am familiar with the excuses for this waste, but they do not satisfy me. The poor- I est pioneer might hare built for his one cow a rude shelter of stakes and poles, and straw or prairie-grass, if he had realized its impor : lance, simply in the light of economy- He who has many cattle is rarely without both straw and timber, aad might shelter his stock abuudantly if he only would. Nay.- he could ! uot have neglected or omitted it if he had clearly understood that his cattle must some ' how be supplied with heat, and that he can far cheaper warm them from wUbout than from within. Ihe broad, general, unquestiauable truths on which I insist on behalf of Good Farming are these: and I do not admit that they are subject to exception: I. It is very rarely impracticable to grow good crops, if you are willing to work for them. If your land is too poor to grow Wheat or Corn, and you are not yet able toenrich it, sow Rye or Buckwheat: if you cannot coax it to grow a good crop of anything, let it alone; and, if you cannot run away from il, work! out by the day or month for your more fortu- j nate neighbor. The lime and means squan dered in trying to grow crops where only half | or quarter crops can be made, constitute the ' heaviest item on the wrong side of our far- ! mers' balance-sheet; taxing them more than their National, State, and local Governments ! together do. 11. Good crops rarely fail to yield a profit J to tue grower. I know there are exceptions, j but they are very few. Keep your eye on the 1 farmer who almost uniformly has great Grass, good Wheat, heavy Corn, Ac., and. unless be drinks, or has some other bad habit, you will fiad him growing rich. lam confident that white blackbirds are nearly as abundant as farmers who have become poor while usually ; growing good crops. 111. The fairest single test of Good Farm- I ing is increasing productiveness of the soil. That farm which averaged twenty bushels of '-rain to tbe acre twenty years ago, twenty- I five bushels ten years ago, and will measure I up thirty bushels to the acre from this year's crop, has been and is in good bands. I know no other touchstone of Farming so unerring as that of tbe increase or decrease from year to year of iu aggregate product If you would convince me that X is a good farmer, do not tell me of some great crop he has just grown, but show me that his crop has regular !y increased from year to year, and I am sat ished. Motuehs should remember that the limbs of children requ.reaa much clothing as any part o the body in all seasons, and especially dur ing winter. A distinguished French physi cian, just deceased, remarked only a short >me ago, that during h twenty-six , e -g 0 f practice m Pans, twenty thousand children had been borne to the cemeteries a sacrifice to the absurd costume of naked arms. Dr. 11 arren thinks that Boston sacrifices five hundred babies every year by not clothing their iunbs. The arms should be covered, from the wrist to the ahonlder, with thick knit woolen ?!eevo.— Pkiladtlpkia Pay Love must ever lore, the feet that never weary in running on lore's errands. A CHABM—Whisper ice cream, in a girl's ear and she is with you. "MR. BROWS, papa wants to know if you won't take a skiff and seal! mamma across the river?" "No; but tell your papa if it will be any favor. I'll take an axe aDd scull him." DCBIXO a trial the other day, a constable, testifying with regard to a lady, said: " I know nothing of her but what women say of one another, and that is not worthy of belief." "KATY, have you laid the table cloth and plates jet?" "An sure, I have, mum—everything butthe eggs: and isn't that Biddy's work?" A FEMALE school teacher, in her advertise ment, stated that she was "complete mistress of her own tongue." "If that's the case," Slid a caustic old bachelor, "she cannot ask too much for ber services." "MOTHER can I go andhave my photograph taken?" "No; it isn't worth while." "Well, then, you might let me go and have my tooth polled—l never go anywhere." AT one of the ragged schools in Ireland, a clergyman asked the question, "What is holmes??" A pupil, in dirty tattered rags; jumped up and said, "Plase yer riverence, it's to be clane inside. Two womeu were in one of the Yorkville cars the other day. They were not quite clear on the subject of their destination, when one of them cried out: —"The fool doesn't know where she is going and I am following ber.'' "Is ANYBODY waiting on you, Miss?" said a polite dry goods clerk to a young girl from . the country. 1 "Yes, sir," said tbe blisbiug damsel,"that's my feiiow outside. He wouldo't come io." "Ou, mother, do send for the doctor!" said a little boy of three years. "What tor, my dear?" "Why, there's a man in the parlor who •ays he'll die if Jane don't marry him—and Jane says she won't." "WHAT do you use to make yourself look so delicate?" said one young woman with an eruption on her face to another, who looked like the departed. "Why," said she, "sometimes L eat slate pencils and chalk, and then for a change, driuk vinegar and chew green tea. When these fail, I lace tighter, and wear the thin, nest shoes I can buy." A voi'xo gentleman, or an elderly one, af ter having paid his addresses to a lady for some time, "popped the question," The lady, in a frighted manner, said, "Yon scare rae, sir." The gentleman did not wish to frighten the young lady, and consequently remained quiet for some time, when she ex : claimed "scare me again." This time it was the gentleman's turn to get scared. A MIRACLE OF HONESTY. —At a party one evening, several contested the honor of bav ing done the most extraordinary thing: a reverend gentleman was appointed judge of their respective pretensions. One produced his tailor's bill, with a re ceipt attached to it. A buzz went thro' the room that this could not be outdone, when, A second proved that he had just arrested his tailor for money that was lent him. "I he palm is his, " was the generous cry, when a third putin his claim : "Gentlemen," said he, "I cannot boast of the feats of my predecessors, but I have re turned the owners two umbrellas that they left at my house." "I'll hear no more I" cried the astonished arbitrator. "This is the very acme of hones ty, it is an act of virtue of which I never knew any one capable of. The prize— "Hold!" cried another. "I have done still ; more than that." "Impossible! cried the whole company, l.et us hear." "I have taken my paper for twenty years and have paid for it every year in advance." He took the prize. ELEVEN ICRKEV'S. —Friend "Jerry" is a good-natured, civil fellow, who attends to his business and provides well for his fami ly, but Las one little failing, iu this, that when he goes to his home in the suburbs at night, he is usually more or less under the influence of contraband fluids. One night, a little after dark, he started for home with a nice turkey, safely done up in a strong wrapping paper, under his arm. Jerry found the road from the station to his pret ty coitvge, some half a mile distant, uncom monly rough that night. He several times stumbled and fell over all sorts of obstruc tion- in the; path. Each time he fell he dropped his turkey, but contrived to pick it up again. On entering his house, he stead ied himself as well as he v. is able, and said to hib wife: '■Jl<-re, wifey, I ve got 'leven turkeys for you." "Eleven turkeys, Jerry! What do you mean? There's only one. " "There must be 'leven turkeys, wifey, for I fell down 'leven limes, and every time I founla turkey. There must be 'leven tur key-." ■ A BEAUTIFUL PASSAGE. The following i 3 from the "Reveries of a Bachelor," by Ike Marvel: "A poor man without some sort of relig ion is at best but a poor reprobate, tbe foot i all ol destiny, with no tie liking him to in finity and the wondrous eternity that is even wor.-e—a flame without heat—a rainbow without color, a flower without perfume. A man may, in some sort, tie his hope and bis honor to this sLifting ground tackel, to bis business or the world, but a woman with out that anchor, called faith, is a drift and * a wreck! A man may be in sorgo sort of moral responsibility out of relation to man kind, but a woman, in ber comprrulively isolated sphere, where affections and not purposes i 3 the controlling motive, eau find i no basis in any other system or right action but that ol faith. A man may craze his thoughts to trustfulness, in such poor har borage as fame or reputation may stretch beiore him, but a woman—where can she put her hopes in storms if" not in heaven? i An-i that sweet trustfulness—that abiding ! love that enduring hope mellowing every page and scene io life—lighting them with a radiance, when the world's storms break like an army with canon. Who can bestow its all, hut a holy soul, tied to what is strong er than an army with cannon ? Who has enjoyed the love of a Christian mother, but will echo the thought with energy, and hal low it with tears ? AN ASTOUNDING RESULT.— It is a rather curious fact for the consideration of histori cal students and those of vital statistics, says the New Orleans Picayune, that, al though almost two generations in the life of man has passed, and the whole number of colored men who participated in the battle at Chalmette in January, 1815, did no*, ex ceed 500, the number of people of that class who under a law passed by the present Gen eral Assembly conferring upon such persons a pension, has brought to light the fact that between iOO and 800 colored veterans have already presented themselves, and furnished the necessary affidavits of themselves and witnesses to sec'tre the issuance of certifi cates upon which pension/'can be secured. This is a pregnant fact io the vital statistics of Louisiana, and one which plainly exhib its the very remarkable result before un dreamed of anywhere, that there is a region of the WGrld where lapse of time takes a cer tain number of white men to their graves, while it actually adds to a given number of the black race and drives death away from them entirely. THE New, York dry goods houses are dis charging a great many clerks. Sixty have left Stewart's since New Year's. A ST. LOCIS husband applies for a di vorce on the ground that his wife made fast continually for religious reasons. PDMNAL E R ' 8 SABS A PIARILL A, FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD. The reputation this excellent medicine enjoys, is derived from its cures, many of which are truly marvellous. Inveterate cases of Scrofulous dis ease, where the system seemed saturated with cor ruption, have been purified and enred by it. Scrofulous affections and disorders, which wore aggravated by the scrofulous contamination until they were painfully afflicting, have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost every sec tion of the country, that the public soarcely need to be informed of its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison is one ol the most destruc tive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of the organism undermines the con stitution, and invites tbe attack of enfeebling cr fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection through the body, and then, on come favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the surface or among the : vitals. In the latter, tubercles may be suddenly ! deposited in tbe lungs or hear:, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions ; on the skin, or font ulcerations on some part of the body. Hence the occasional use of a bottle of this SAR.SAPARILLA is advisable, even vr Jen no active symptom? of disease appear. Persons afflicted with the following compla nts generally find immediate relief, and, at length, cure, bv the use of this SARSAPARILI.A: St. Anthony', fire, Rose or Ergripelat, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm, Sore Eye t, Sore Ear,, and other eruptions or visible forms of Sero/ulou, disease. Also in the more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Drop,y, Heart Ditrce, Fit,. Epilepty, XeuroJgia, and the various V. erou, affections of the muscular and nervous systems. Syphil., or I enereal and Mercurial Disease, are cured by it, though a long time is required for subduing these obstinate maladies by any med icioe- But long continued use of this medicine will cure the complaint, /.eucorrhtra or White,, L'terini I Icerations, and Female Dieeaeee, are commonly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Di rections for each case are found in our Almanac, supplied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when caused by accumulations of extraneoas matters in the blood, yield qnickly to it, as also Lieer Complaint,, Torpidity, Conge,Hon or Inftcmma tion of the l.icer, and Jaundice, when arising as they often do, from the rankling poisons in the blood. This SA USA PA It 11. L.4 is a great resto rer fcr the strength and vigor ot tht system. Those who are Languid and Listless, Despomien., Steeples?, and troubled with Nervous Apprehen sions or Fears, or any of the affections symptom atic of Weak, ess, will find immediate relief and convincing evidence of its restorative power upon trial.

This Is the oldest of the series. In its main features it still follows in the path marked out by Brougham, Jeffrey, Sydney Smith, and Lord Hol land, its original founders snd first contributors. 2. THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW, which commences its I2Bth volume with the Jan uary number, was set on foot as a rival to the Eniiißt-RGn. It resolutely maintains its opposi tion in pol'tics, and shows equal vigor in its liter, ary depaitinent. 3. THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW has just closed its 92d volume. In point of liter ary ability this Review is fast rising to a level with its competitors. It is the advocate of polit ical and religious liberalism. 4. THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW, now in its 51st volume, occupies a very high po sition in periodical literature. Passing beyond the narrow formalism of schools and parties, it appeals to a wider range of sympathies and a higher integrity of conviction. 5. BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURG MAGAZINE was commenced 52 years ago. Equalling the Quarterlies in its literary and scientific depart ments, it has won a wide reputation for the nar ratives and sketches which enliven its pages.
