very interesting case of "a husband and
father" who found himself at the begin
ing of the winter with no visible means
of support fur a large family, except
half a peck of oatmeal, five pounds of
salt pork, a handful of wood, and three
dollars in cash. By the time the pork
and the oatmeal were consumed a bright
idea occurred to him. fie brought
a box of herrings, givings, each
one of his family one for breakfast.--
The inordinate thirst produced caused
such a demand for cold 'water as to take

have been requested to 'suppress the
names in the following curious history,
which has recently, transpired, or rather
the last chapter of,whielt recently occur

twelve years ago, married a neighboring
girl—the daughter of a very respectable
family. They removed immediately to
a distant place, where they had beenliv
ing but a few days when, upon his re
turn home one evening, the wife of a
week was missing. She did not return
that night, during which he felt, of course
the utmost anxiety, and in the morning
he started in search of her. He could
ohly learn that she had taken the stage
alone, 'which led to a railroad station
some miles distant. He fo'lowed, but
at the depot lost all traces of her. He
wrote to her_ former home, and publish.
ed notices in the newspapers, but could
obtain no clue to her whereabouts. He
grieved in loneliness at.the supposed
criminal act, and to escape the scene
where his, week, of unsullied happiness
had. been followed by so great a grief,
he' removed! to.this then.sparsely settled
wilderness. He. here settled upon a

MORMON CRUELTIES.—Extract from a

quarters, a knock at his door announc

story. The case oft lits handsome young
'excited our sytripkth'y 'Mich. 'He
had, Tibeertm, paid his court to a young
Danish girl, who had emigrated here
with 'him, whom he had known from
childhood, with a view to marriage,- - --
The 'attachment was mutual, but some
hoary headed old scoundrel of a bishop,
or other official, wanted the girl for his

youth, had him tied, and thus mutilated
him, first giving him a chance 'between
that and death.

CONSTANT MPLOYM ENT. —The man
whots obliged to be constantly employ.
ed to earn th 6 neeess l aries of life and
support of his family, knows not the un
happiness he prays for when he desired
wealth and idleness. To be constantly
busy is to be always happy. Persons
who have suddenly acquired wealth,
broken up their active pursuits, and be
gun to, live at theirease waste away, and
die' in' it very short time. Thousands
would Wave been blessings tothe world,
and added to the common stock of hap
piness, if they had been content to re
main in an humble sphere, 'arid dirtied
every mouthful . or fOod that nourished
th it bodies.' Persons who are always
busy and go 6.heerfully to their daily
tasks, are the least disturbed by the flue•
tuations of business, and at night sleep
with perfect composure.
BARN CELLARS.
Barn cellars are very important to the
stock farmer. The cost of a cellar un
der a barn, 30 by 40 feet, is but a small
matter to most farmers who have shov
els, and rocks, to excavate and Guild the
walls. 30 by 40 make 1200 square feet
of room for cattle, hogs,. roots, and ma
nure. All this room, warm in winter
and cool in summer, -is gained without
cost of roof or boarding and clapboard
ing. Nothing in the article of room
comes so cheap to the working farmer
as a barn cellar under the wh'ole
liuild
ing.
Some of our best farmers clear out
the cow-yard fwice each year, and 'fill
in again with soil from the roadside and
'soil fromlhe sides of old walls, which
has accumulated there for many years.
This is usually Ihe - ridhestsoil,as farm
ers never plant close to the fence. And
leaves and dust gather there to aid the
annual abrasion from the stone walls..
This accumulation of matter is too of
ten permitted to lie undisturbed for ma
ny years in succession. It' is a sloven
ly practice, and should be corrected.—
Old walls are made much better by the
removal of these stepping stones for un
ruly cattle, and a handsome fence is
made by the renovation of an old stone
wall.—Plowman.
A WO3IAN SWORN A:s errrze'si.z—A
novel proceeditig—novel at least i'n this
State—took place in the Court of Com
mon Pleas, on Saturday. Catharine
Zellers - ffernian Wcidian; made formal
application, and was sworn and admit
tell as a citizen of the United States.—
It was a current surmise arnon . g. many,
who witnessed theproceeding, that Mrs.
Zellers was 'one Of the ,'strong-minded,'
anti is therefore con'fident`of •"the greed
time coming," when it will be necessa
ry orily'TtyProve citizenship to take turn
at the helm of State. Although it is
the first case of this kind which has
come under our notice, it is no unusual
thing for spinsters or widows to vote in
local elections in England and some
parts of Europe, and perhaps Mrs. -Zel
lers may have heretofore enjoyed these
privileges, and hopes to, do so - again ;
but the more probable inference is that
she"wants to sell "red eye" and lager,
and has taken this preliminary towards
applying for a license.—Litneaster Ex

AGE OF SHEEP Port MUTTON.—A late
'English wilter says: "A sheep to be

cure, should not he 'killed earlier than
five years old, at which age the mutton
will he rich and succulent, of a dark col.
or and full of the-richest gravy, whereas
if only two years old, it is flabby, pale
and flavorless."
READ AN HOUR A DAY
There was a lad, who at fourteen, was
apprenticed to a soap-boiler. One of his
resolutions wait to read one hour a day,
or at that rate, and he bad an old silver
watch, left him by his uncle, which he
timed his reading by: He staid seven
years with his master, and said when he
was twenty-one that he knew as much.as
(he young squire did. Now let us see
how much time he had to read sev
en years, at the rate of one hour a day.
it would he twenty•five hundred and fif
ty-ive loom, which at the 'rate of eight
reading hours - per day,would he equal to
11 months; nearlY year's readin.
That spent treasuring up-indul
:knowledge, would pile Itto a'v'e n ry large
store. lam sure it is worth trying for.
Try what yott can do. begin now. In
after years you will look boa upon the
task as the most pleasant and profitable
you ever performed.

"Oh, Johny," cried a nervous mother,
"do have some pity upon my poor head !
Can't you play without shouting so?"
Poor Johny drew up tha tape reins
with which , he Was driving two chairs
tandem, and called out in a loud whisp
er, "Ge t wboal" But at length find
, i
ing little pleasure in this suppressed
amusement, he threw down the reins
and laying his hand on his breast, said:
with a long breath, "Oh mother, its full
of noise in here, and hurts ine to keep
it in ? Don't all little boys make a
noise when they play
"Yes, Johny I believe they all do," 're
plied the lady.
‘ 7 oh, then, rrioeher dear," cried Johny
in a winning tone, "please let me be a
little boy?"
We join poor Johny heartily in this
pbtition. Please mothers, let your sons
be little boys while they may, Let
them have free and happy Childhood
that when your heads are low in the
grave, they will point back to thesedava
and say.: "We were happy ehildren for
there was sunshine ivhere our mother
was."
POPPING TitE QuesTtovt.---One eve
nite, as I was settie by Hetty, and had
worked myself up to the sticking pint,
lays I, "Ifetty, if a feller should ask you
to marry him, what wud you say ?"
Then she laughed, and sez -she, "That
would depend on who asked me." Then
sez I, "suppose it was N'ed Willis ?"
Sez she, "I'd tell• Ned Willis, but not
you." That kintler staggered me. But
I was to 'cute to loose the'opportUnity.;
and so sez agen, "Suppose,it was me ?"
And then you ought to have seen her
pout up her lip, and sez she, " I don't
take no supposes." Well now, you see
there was nothin' for the to dolt)t lotie s h ,
the gun off. So bang it Went. Sez I,
"Lot.' lietty, its me. Won't you say
yes ?" And then there was such a hul
