A Sleeping Homestead
The meadows slumber far beneath the moon,
While wakes the watchful river at their feet,
And all the air is filled with odors sweet,
The breath of flowers that shall unfold full
soon.
to L.azy mystery the forest hides,
And straggling trees have caught a sylvan
grace i
The sleeping farmhouse shows its placid face,
Between the shadows where the grove di
vides.
Still are the sparrows nested in the thatch,
And still the callow larks beneath the brake ;
The startled doves with tender coo awake
As bays the moon-struck mastiff on his
watch.
Now warmer light upon the welkin lies,
And deeper night intensifies the peace ;
Only the river moves and will not cease
Its swift, up-searching glances to the skies.
By blooming white-thorn and by climbing
rose,
I know the nook where dreams the maiden
sweet ;
Honest her heart as sheaves of goodly wheat,
Fairer her face than any flower that blows.
I know the chamber where the old folks
rest,
With hearts at peace and all their labor done;
Where ruddy children sleep till shines the sun,
Where breathes the baby ,warm on mother's
breast.
I know the barn where, safe from midnight
The weal" , beggar snores amid the hay,
Waiting the first 'ld warning of the day
To grasp his staff and cross the distant bill
God bath the simple homestead in his eye,
And sometimes 3a,,a solemn hour like this,
He sheds about it dreams of promised bliss,
With mellow moonlight from the summer
sky.
Preserving Grapes
As the season for grapes is rapidly ap
proaching, the following may be of inter
est to the cultivators and consumers of this
favorite fruit :
While grapes may be grown in such
profusion and with so little labor, it is a
remarkable fact that a supply for every
household in the country is not produced,
not only in the regular season of them, but
to last till spring. There is no trouble is
keeping grapes through the winter as
fresh as when first gathered. In seasons
when other fruit is scarce, no greater lux
ury can be enjoyed than a dish of fresh
grapes in winter. In gathering grapes for
keeping fresh they should be allowed to
hang on the vines until they are full ripe,
and then gathered with care to avoid
bruising. The fairest bunches should be
chosen to put away, and with a pair of
small scissors all defecti,-e and bruised ber
ries should be cut off. They should then
be put in boxes well ventilated, and re
main for a few days, when they should be
packed in boxes holding six or eight pounds
each, first sprinkling the bottom with a
layer of mahogany sawdust, or what is
better, turning chips, then a layer of
grapes, and then sawdust alternately to
the top. It is not important that the box
be tight ; it is better that it should not be.
These should be put in the coolest place
in the house, where the air is dry.
The slops from the kitchen should not
be thrown out at the back door or win
dows, or near by on the ground, as is the
case in a great number of families; for
this is very unpleasant and nauseating, and
no doubt is often the source of disease to
the family. All the greasy slops should
be given to the swine every day. If you
do not like to give them to your stock,
haul two or three hundred bushels of veg
table mould to some convenient place, and
put the slops on this pile. As soon as the
pile becomes saturated, haul an addition
of one hUndred bushels, and put evenly
over it. This heap may be in a circular
or square shape, as you prefer; but it
should be hollow on the top, so that all
the slops will run to the centre when
thrown upon it. If you do not like
this, you can greatly improve your gar
dens by the application of these slops to
the vegetables;_ when the slops are greasy,
becareful not to wet the leaves of the
plants in the application. The suds from
the laundry should be used in the manner
above described. The rinsings from spit
toons, and the urine from bed-chambers
should not be wastefully thrown here and
there, but there should be a special pile
set apart from them; and by the use of a
little plaster occasionally, you will have
nothing unpleasant to the eye or smell,
which is so often the case on many farms.
To Banish Fleas and Lice ,
Pennyroyal, a common weed in pastures
and meadows, is very offensive to fleas,
flies, lice and mosquitoes. To use it ad
vantageously, take lard, and rub or grind
it with a muller on a smooth, flat stone,
elate, or piece of marble, with the dried
or green plant-leaves, stems, and blossoms,
until well mixed. Let it stand twenty
four hours, melt at a low heat, and strain.
With this annoint the cars and neck of an
animal, or the perches and nests of poul
try which may be infested. A small
quantity may be rubbed under the wings
of a hen with a brood of young chickens.
A few drops of the oil, rubbed on theface,
neck and hands, will keep off the mosqui
toes, however thick they may be. A
good night's rest may be obtained iu the
worst infested woods or swamps where
those insects or black flies do most abound,
by the use of this mixture. Keep it out
of the eyes as its presence there is not
agreeable.—Hearth and Home.
-
Thrashing Buckwheat.
Harvesting buckwheat is subject to so
many accidents, and must, necessarily, be
done at so short a notice, that it is valua
ble to know any plan by which it may be
readily and quickly performed. Where it
must be thrashed by hand, a floor may be
prepared in the field by scraping and
sweeping a piece of ground, or laying
down sheets. Lay over this a bed of rail
an inch or two apart, raised sufficiently
from the ground to make room for the
grain when it is thrashed. On these rails
throw the straw as it is brought from the
stack, and thrash out the grain, which
falls through the openings between the
rails. The straw can thus be removedand
separated from the grain very quickly.
When all is thrashed, remove,the rails,
and the grain may be cleaned on the
ground if desired.

Through struggle and suffering, at the
of multiform agonies, bereavements, devastations,
American Idea embodied in the preamble to our Le
Declaration of Independence approaches its completi
alization. The noble, Inspiring assertion that •all men
created equal;' and endowed by their Creator with inn
able rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happinee
no longer a glittering generality, a poet's fancy, a phi
opher'e speculation, but the recognized base of our po

to the equal political and civil rights of everyman bor.
naturalized in our Republic the shield and defense of
Federal Constitution. The billows of Caste and Privi
may roar and rage around that rock, and may transir
seem on the point of washing it away: but Its foandat
are deep laid and steadfast, and the breakers of Rear
and pinery are burled again=t and dash their spray r
t in vain.

We fully appreciate the desperation wherewith all the
ring elements of hatred to Republicanachievement wil
combined and hurled against thi, battlements of Bepc

cosses, facilitated by Republican feuds and dissensions,
inspire the charging host with a sanguine hope of vlct
such as nerved it to put forth its utmost strength in
earlier stages of the constests of 1864 and 1868. Yet
faith is clear and strong that the American People
bless God that, on the red battle-fields of our late (
War, the Union was upheld and Slavery destroyed,
will never consciously decide that theprecioue blood tl
on poured out was lavished in vain.

!struggle by legitimate means to beneficent ends. To k
Sovereignty, it opposes indiseoluble National Integett3
Slavery for Blacks, Liberty for All; to Proecription,
franchisement; to Popular Ignorance, Universal Ed
tion ; to intensity and eternity of Wrathful Hate, nniv
and invincible Good Will. It would fain do it uhum
