Honest and Happy.
I==
There is much in the world that is doubtful.
Them is much we shall ne'er understand—.
Why Virtue should live in a Poorhouse,
Iket& Vire ow the fat of the land,
rot those' whware fretful end peevish,
This duty ronrins to fulfill ;
But try to be butane and happy,.
And is; the world du as it will.
Tfie poor wretch who walks upon instates,
May often be envied, faY more
Than be who in splendid apparel
Can abet on the beggar his door;
Me cares not for for claret and sherry ;
Of venison he hu not hia
Yet dams to be honest' and happy,
And lets the world do as it
He boasteth no lordly possession',
No harry at table to weir;
He make% no hollow professions
To cleat his friends, sooner or late ;
Heroin no hard working tradesman,
Who gets but a curse for his bill.;
But tries to be honest end happy, ,
And lets the world doss it will.
BSI
He joins not the bowl or the wasssil,
He seeks not the gambler or see;
Contentment and health are the blessings
That daily recur to his lot ;
And whilst in the midst of his children
Good precepts be strives to instil;
He shows that he'sfhonest an i happy,
Ahd lets the world do as it will.
Oh ! who then wenld grumble at fortune,
Though sorrow and toiling cetide ?
The man that with wealth is a villain,-
Might be virtuous were it denied !
Too much may o'erburden and sink y.O,
To little oft keep you from ill;
Then try to be honest and happy,
And let the world do as it will.
The man who with plenty is honest,
Hath little to ask for his name :
But`he who, though humble, is upright,
Shall live in the annali of Fathe:
The vicious may mock at his metery,
But ageswill Mink on him still—
Then strive to he honest end happy,
And let the world 10 as it will.
Work in the Garden
SOWLVG SEEDS.—Prepare a border with a
shutuern exposure, by manuring liberally with
unfermented stable manure, dig this in a spit
deep, rake the, ground thoroughly, then, pot on
a covering of well rotted manure, an inch or
two deep, rake' this in well, then lay off your
border in euitablb diviiions, to receive the dif
ferent kinds of seeds that you intend to sow.
Your bed being thus prepared, sow early and
late cabbage seed, as the Early York, Battersea
and'Sugar Loaf—the large Flat Dutch, the Drum
Head, and Savoy. This, embracing early and
late varieties, will secure a continuous supply
of cabbage for the table or market, a the early
kinds may be abotil being used up, the late
kinds will come into play. Having sown your
cabbage seeds,of different sorts, sow ashes there
on with a light hand, then rake the seed in, so
as to cover them lightly, when you must pat
the ground down with the back of your spade.
It may be well here to remark that plant beds
should not be shaded, but well exposed to sun
and air. When th'e plants come up, if they
should be attacked by lice, bugs. or other in
sects, fink up equal quantities of soot, ashes and
flour of sulphur. and give them a very' slight
dusting with the mixture, two or three days in
succession. Having sown your Cabbage seed.
in the other divisions of your prepared bed,
sow Tomatoes, Egg Plant. Cauliflower,
Brocoli, Celery, and Lettuce seeds;
?cos.—Select a loamy bed, and nrahure it
with well rotted manure, dig that in, rake your
your peas therein thickly and cover with the
hoe, patting down the ground as you proceed.
To secure a countinuous supply, you can either
sow the early varieties at intervals of ten days
apart, or sew the-early and late kinds at the
same time.
EARLY POYATOES.—These may be planted
-as soon as ever the frost is out of the ground.
Sound potatoes must bo selected, as it useless
:to plant those infected with rot ; and, indeed.
as a precautionary means, we would advise that
(for the garden culture) the seed Potatoes should
be immersed in brine before being cut into sets,
and when cut, that they should be dried in
Ashes, Lime, or Plaster. In planting the sets.
after manuring the drills, we would sprinkle
a mixture of charcoal dust, lime and ashes over
over them prior to covering them up. W hen
the potatoe plants are about an inch high, we
would dust.overihein a mixture of equal parts
of lime, plaster and salt, in such quantity as - to
give the young plants a gentle' dusting. We
do not say, that this treatment will' protect the
potato from the rot, but it may do so, and is
worth a trial.
EARLY TURN! ps.— rowards the latter end of
this month Will be a good time to prepare a bed
fur early turnips. Fur ilits crop a compost
made of six parts cow dung, one of lime, and
one of ashes, will be found to be the best. Mix
the whole thorodghly together by frequently
turing over the mass, then spread one•half of
the composion the bed, and dig it in the depth
of the spade, rake the bed well, then spread the
other half a spade deep, and rake the bed
thoroughly, when it will be ready to receive
the seed. Previously, however, to sowing the
seed —which should be the Early Dutch—it
should be soaked in fish oil for twelve hours,
then taken out, drained and dried in ashes or
lime, sowed thinly, raked in and the ground
compressed, by being patted with the back of
the spade. As soon as the plants come up, a
mixture of equal parts of plaster and ashes should
be sawn thereon, so as to dust the plants well.
This operation should be repeated daily, each
morning, until the plants get into the rough
plants begin to belly, they must be thinned out
so as to stand about S inches span, and the
weeds kept down until the leaves shade the
ground. Thus treated, a bed of early" turnips
may be secured for table and market—and of
this, those who live near a market, may be as.
snred, that they will find ready sale and good
prices, as but few persons raise turnips this car.
ly for market.
CABBAGE PLANTS.—Those who have been
so provident as to raise Cabbage plants ins hot
bed, should lien the occasion u( preparing a
bed to set them out in. as soon as the frost is
obi of the ground. Cabbages are gross feeders. -
therefore, require a good deal of strong manure.
To_prepire plants raised in hot beds for trans•
plantation. his necessarly, to raise up the lights
for several , days, to inure them to the wattles
before setting thetp out.. To mom - them from
the cut worm, prepare a paste-like mixture of
soot and Sour 61 sulphur, muitterted and-brought'
it, the consistence of paste, and suffered to cool.
as you are about to set the plants out, dip the
toots and stem of each plant into it op, to the
leaves, when it must be inserted into the ground.
This mixture will not only protect the plants
from the attacks of the cut-worm, but serveas
an active manure th give, them an - early start in
their growth. a thing o(great importance as all
gardeners.well know.
EARLY BEETS. PARSNIPS AND CARROTII.
We advise that a bed in each garden should be
appropriated to secure an early supply of these
excellent table roots. As the same soil suits,
•nte bed you'd serve fora supply. The manure
io he nerd should be thoroughly rotted : the
bed dug deeply and - well taked and laid off into
drills 2.1 feet apart, which should he Sown at
thinly as potisible. and covered op about 2 in
ches. The plants np.• the beets should be
thinned nut to stand about 8 inches apart, the
parsnips 6 inches apart. and the carrots about 4
inches apart. The weeds must be cleaned out
and the earth loosened two or three times before
the crop is laid b . -
illtANS.—The Lisbon. Mrzagan and Windsor
beaus may he planted as soon as the frost is out
of the ground. Beans delight best in a clayey,
or clayey onwthl soil, which should be modera
tely moored, dug with care and thoroughly
raked.
Ram:gm' AND Lerroce —As soon as ttrie
frost is out of the grOund Radishes and Ist mice
seed may be sown in the open ground ;—to
secure continuous - supplies it is best to sow the
seed at tnter vale of ten or twelve days. When
the lettuce plants are of sufficient size they
should he taken up and set out to head and futm
*into loaf.

' without delay. Prepare a compost of 9 parts
well rotted stable manure and I part ashes,
spread this' about an Molt thick between the
rows of asparagus, fork it in well, then rake
the bed well and finish by sowing -salt over it
so as to whiten the whole surface ofthe ground.

Proportion of illilk to Butter.
• Sometimes it is desirable to know the pro•
portion between the quantity of milk and the
butter produced front it; for the question is some
times presented to farmers, whether it is better
to sell milk or make butter. Yet no definite
rule can be given, as milk varies in richness
and its butter qualities, lout only from the grit
eral breed of animals, but from individuals of
the same breed, also from the food.
The difference is sometimes one-half. The
Alderney cows give very rich milk, seven quarts
of which will often. if not generally produce a•
pound of butter ; while the Milk of some cows
is so poor that it takes nineteen or twenty quarts
of milk for a pound of butter. The farmers
cow, Blossoms.- that gave so large a quantity of
milk, did not yield a large amount of butter„ as
it took nineteen quarts for a pound. On an
average it probably takes about twelve quarts
of milk for a pound of butter.
Mr. J. Leafhe, of Wilburn, who has some
excellent cows that give rich milk. lately made
en experiment, while his cows were still fed
partially on hay. He measured out thirty
quarts of milk which produced 7& pounds of
cream, (three cps. in measure.) and three pounds
three ounces of good yellow butler.
As to weight, we have various estimates as
the proportion of butter to milk. In all experi.
mews of the kind the milk should be weighed
as well as the butter. Measures such as used
for milk differ gteatly ; so much that it seems
that very little reliance can be placed upon them.
From statistics now before us showing the a.
mount of butter produced, and quantity of milk
in weight and measure, in one case it is stated
that 161 quarts of milk meighed' forty two
pounds which is two lbe -nine ounces to the
quart.—ln another ease, it stated that a cow
gave twenty-six quarts of milk per day. which
weighed forty-seven pouuds. Here is leas than
two pounds to the quart. Here is but a speci

milk, and it shows the imporianee of weighing.

FOR the permanent removal of all such diseases as
take their rise in an Impure Blood, Impaired Di
gestion, Morbid state of the Liver and Stomach, Weak
ness of the Nervous System, and a Dimorded habit of
Cowstitution generally.
Dr. Wood's Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry Bitten
have already, by their substantial excellence, won a
degree of pUblic floor and. patronage which puts them
beyond the need of recommendation. Being faithfully
prepared of the most excellent materials. they can be
fully confided in by all in nerd of a tonic, aperient or
.alternative remedy.
This preparation will be found on trial to be a sure
and speedy remedy for the diseases enumerated above.
They purify the blood, secure regular digdation, promote
a healty action of the Liver and Stomach, and strengthen
the nervev, at once securing derdlk and rigor to the
whole system. In all cases of despondency, arising
from indigestion or nervous irritation, they have been
used with remarkable success; noiare they less useful
as a remedy for Headache, Flatulency, loss of Appetite'
and a genera/ prostrulson of the avian. At the same
time it must be stated that they are netthcr violent nor
at all dangerous in their operation, securing as they. do
the desired end, by a ateady'regular and easy influence.
Taken daily, in doses precribed,they will be found to
operate in that gentle and salutary, manner, which is. in
fact, their highest recommendation. . That prejudice
usually existing against advertised medicines, would
not be merited if bestowed on this. The wonderful
cures it has performed and the acknowledged celebrity
of its principals constituents, should at once commend
it to the public favor.

A CERTAIN CURE FOR PILE' !
Dr. I. rphein's Trgetable Illeetniy;
AN INTERNAL REMEDY , INVENTED BY

that dangerous sad distressing complaint.—the PILES
—ever offered to on Amedean public.
Mark this. It is an INTERNAL REMEDY—and
nit an!extemal application, and will cure every case
of Piles, eithiq bleeding or blind; internal or external,
and probably the only thing that will. There is no
mistake about it. It is • positive cure—speedy an&
permanent. It is also a convenient medicine to take,
ann improves the general heal h in a remarkable man
ner. Each box contains twelve doses, at 81 a dose. It
is very mild in its operation, and may be taken in cases
of the most acute inflammation without danger. All
external applications are in the highest degree disagree
able, inconvenie t and offensive ; and from the very na
ture of the disease, inconvenient in their effects. This
medicine attacks the disease at its source, and remoiing
the cause, renders the cure certain and,permanent.
To Maumee Lanixs.—Married ladies are almost in
variably subject to „that painful and injurious disease,
the Piles, with consequent inflammation of the stomach,
bowels and spine, weakness of the hack, flow of blood
to to the head, ele. The Electuary is perfectly safe for
pregnant ladies, and the most useful cathartic that can
possibly be used, as it not only removes the Piles and
all inflammatory diseases without pain or irritation,
but will insure uneasy time, a safe delivery, and a sound
constitution in the offspring.
The Electuary contains no mineral medicine. no al
oes, coloeynth or gamboge, or other powerful and irrita

influence—no change in diet necessary, If taken ac
cording to directions, a cure fur fife is guaranteed.

who at first had an interest in an imitation Sugar Coat

his valuable but rather than notice them in public,
Dr. Smith is about to institute legal proceedings against
them for their slanders, as he basin another case against
a similar party, in which he recovered a large amount of
damages. These miserable imitators have to resort to
the most abominable means,to palm off their counterfeit

notice in which life has been endangered by the unfortu
