gtjartmcnt. The Thriftless Farmer. The thriftless farmer provides no shelter for his cattle during the inclemency of the winter but permits them to stand shivering by the side of a feuce, or lie iu the snow, as best suits them. Tie throws their fodder on the ground, or in the mud, aud not unfrequeutly in the highway, by which a large portion of it, and all the manure is wasted. He grazes his meadows in fall and spring bv which they are gradually exhausted and finally ruined. His fences are old and poor, just such as to let his neighbor's cattle break, into his field, aud teach his own to be unruly and spoil his crops. He neglects to keep the manure from arousd the sills of his barn—if he has one—by which they are prematurely rotted, and his barn de stroyed. He tills, or skims over the surface of his land uutii it is exhausted ; but never thinks it worth while to manure or clover it. For the first he has no time, aud for the last he " is not able." He has a place for nothing, and nothing in its place. He consequently wants a hoe or a rake, or a hammer, or au auger, but knows not where to find them, and thus loses much time. He loiters away storm# days and evenings, when he should be repairing his utensils, or improving his mind by reading useful books or newspapers, He spends much time in town at the corner of the streets or in the "rum holes,"complain ing of hard times, and goes home in the even ing " pretty well tore? He lias no shed for his firewood ; conse quently his wife is out of humor, and his meals put of season. He plants a few fruit trees, and his cattle forthwith destroy them. He " has no luck iu raising fruit." Lot us look now at the thrifty farmer. He has good sheds to keep his eattle from tUff weather, and warm, ventilated stables for h* cows and young stock ; and also, a shed to protect his manure heap. He has leaves or other refuse vegetable matter together with soil from his headlands, convenient to his barn-yard, to compost with his manure heap through the winter. He does not allow the liquid manure to escape into the nearest stream, a quarter or half a mile from his barn-yard. His barn, and sheds, and dwellings are all supplied with good spouting. His fences are always in good order, and materials for repairing or renewal are collected aud made during the winter. His wood-shed is supplied with wood cut in August, always one year ahead. His wife never scolds, because she never has occasion to. Her cellar and pantry are always supplied with the needful rate material, which she works up into a palatable form to till up vacuums at meal time. Heavy bread, cold buckwheat cakes, and raucid butter are novelties which her good man and the children have heard tell by some of the neighbors ; but have never seen. He considers it a duty to promote the circu lation of agricultural papers, and has saved himself some hundreds of dollars by following their advice. His crops are always equal, and often better than any in the neighborhood, and are kept clear of weeds. He watches the markets and sells his crops at the highest prices. He makes it a rule always to spend a little j less than he makes. lie buys and sells on the cash principle, and thus saves himself from losses and bad debts. He has a large fruit orchard, well supplied with every variety of fruit to ripen iu succes sion. , He studies the theori/ as well as the practice of fanning, has cleared off the last 100 dollars of mortgage, and is seriously talking of mak ing a bid for his neighbor Sloven's farm, which is up at Sheriffs sale. He goes to church on the Sabbath, minds his religious duties, and brings up his children to do the same, lives respected, and dies re gretted, as a useful man aud a good Christian. Farmers' Magazine'. TITF. USE OF LEAVES.— The office and utility of leaves are becoming better understood by cultivators than formerly ; yet we find a good many still adhering to the old belief that the snns's rays, directly shining on forming fruit, are what perfect it, independently of other influences. On this subject theory and practice have been invariably found in perfect accordance with each other. The principles of physiology teach us that the sap of a tree, when it passes hi at the roots, remains nearly unchanged in its upward progress through stem and branches, until it reaches the leaves, where, being spread out in those thin organs, to light ami air, it undergoes a complete change, and thus be comes suited to the formation of a new wood and new fruit. Strip a rapidly growing tree of its leaves at mid-summer, ami from that moment the supply ♦if new wood ceases, and it will grow no more till new leaves are formed ; and if it have young fruit, the growth aud maturity of the latter will cease in the same way. A few days since, a Yellow Gage Plum tree lost all its foliage from leaf-blight, when the plums were not fully grown, and while yet destitute of flavor. The fruit remained stationary and unaltered, until within a few weeks, a second crop of Jeavcs came out. Tliev then swelled to full size, received their crimson dots, and assumed their honeyed sweetness of flavor. The object of prunning should be, therefore, to allrrtv the leaves to grow to full size without being injured from crowding. We find the following corroborative fact in a late number of the Neie England Farmer : We once knew an intelligent lady, and one who understood much about horticulture, strip her grajie vines of a portion of tlu-ir leaves, iu oilier to Ut in the sum ami ripen the fruit ; but to her surprise, where the leaves remained as Nature had disposed, them, the grppes were * the earliest, and every way the best. This lest! . .kr to investigate the matter, when slio was delighted to learn that the leaves were not only tlu 'protectors but caterers of the fruit, constantly , elaborating and supplying it with the pabulum it required to bring it to perfection.— Country treutfeman.

AND CITERRY PECTORAL.—Tbc fol jt V lowing remedies are offered to the public as the most perfect, which medical science can afford. AYKK CATHAKTIC PILLS liave been prepared with the utmost -kill which the medical profession of this age possesses, and their effects show they have virtues which surpass any combination of medicines hitherto known. Other pre parations do more or les gooil : but this cures such dan gerous complaints, so quick and so surely, as to prove an ( efficacy and a power to uproot disease beyond any thing which men have known before. By removing the obstruc tions of the internal organs and stimulating them into healthy action, they renovate the fountains of life and vigor—health courses anew through the body, and the sick man is well again. They are adapted to disease, and disease oulv, for when taken by one in health they pro duce but little effect. This Is the jierfection of medicine. It is antagonistic to disease, and no more. Tender chil dren may take them with impunity. If they are sick they will cure them, if they are well they will do them no harm. Give them to some patient who has been prostrated with bilious complaint; see his hent-up, tottering form straight en with strength again ; see his long-lost appetite return ; see his clammy features blossom into health. Give them lo some sufferer whose toul blood has burst out in scrotula till his skin is covered with sores ; who stands, or sits, or ies in anguish, lie has been drenched inside and out with exerv everv potion which ingenuity could suggest. Give him these falls, and mark the effect; see the scabs fall from his body : see the new, fair skin that has grown un der them : see the late leper that is clean. Give them to him whose angry humors have planted rheumatism in his joints and bones": move him, and he screeches with pain : he too has been soaked through every muscle of his liody with linaments and salves ; give him these Pills to purify his blood ; they may not cure him, for olas ! there cases which 110 mortal power can reach ; but mark, he walks with crutches now. and now lie walkes alone : they have cured liitn. Give them to the lean, sour,haggard dyspep tic. whose gnawing stomach has long ago eaten every smile from his face and everv mnsele from his body. See his appetite return, and with it his health : see the new man. See her that was radiant with health and loveliness blasted and too early withering away ; want of exercise, or mental angui.-h, or some lurking disease has deranged the internal orgaua of digestion, assimilation, or secretion, till they do they do their office ill. Her blood is vitiated, her health is gone. Give her these Pills to stimulate the vital principle into renewed vigor, to ea-t out the obstruc tions, and infuse a new vitality into the blood. Now look again—the roses blossom on her cheek, and where sorrow : sat. joy hursts from every feature. Seethe sweet infant wasted with worms. It- wan, sickly features tell you without disguise, and painfully distinct, that they are eat ing its life away. Its pirn !ied-np nose and ears, and rest less sleeping-, tell the dreadful truth in language which everv mother knows. Give it the Pills in large doses to sweep these vile parasites from the body. .Vow turn again and see the rudily bloom of childhood. Is it nothing to do these things ?° Xay, are they not the marvel of this age ? And yet they are done around you every day. Have you "the le-s serious symptoms of these distempers, they are the easier cured. Jaundice, t'ostiverie-s. Head ache, Sidcache. Heartburn, Foul Stomach, Nausea, Pain in the Bowels. Flatulency, Loss of Appetite. King's Evil, Neuralgia. Gout, and kindred eomploints all arise front the derangements which these Pills rapidly cure. Take them persevering!}'. and under the counsel of a good I'hy-ician if vou can : if not. take them judiciously by such advice a- we give you, and the distressing, dangerous diseases they cure, which afflict so many millions otthe human race, are cast out like the devils of old—they must lmrrow in the brutes and in the sea.

Through a trial of many year- and through every nation of civilized me, AYEK'S CHKKKY PECTORAL has been found to afford more relief and to cure more cases of pulmonary disease than any other remedy known to mankind. Cast s of apparently settled Consumption have been cured by it. and thousands of sufferers who were deemed beyond the reach ot human aid have becu restored to their friends and usefulness, to sound health and the enjoyments of life, by this all-powerful antidote to diseases of the lungs and throat. Here a cold had settled on the lungs. The dry, hacking cough, the glas-y eye, ami the pale, thin features of him who was lately lusty and strong whisper to all hut him CoNst MiTtoN. He trie- everything: hat the disease is gnawing at Irs vitals, and show- its fatal symptoms more and more over all his fame. He is taking the Cher ry Pectoral now : it lias -topped his cough and ni.ida In breathing easy : his sleep in sound at night : his appetite returns, and with it his strength. The dart which pter< ed his side is broken. Scarcely any ucighlmrhnod can be found which has n< t some living trophy like this to shad ow forth the virtue- which have won for the Cherry Pec toral an imperishable renown. Influenzal. Croup. Bron chitis, Hoar-eness, Pleurisy, Whooping Cough, and all ir ritations of the throat ami lungs arc easily cured by the Cherry I Vetera lif taken in season.

DAVIS' PLATFORM B2S KIVE. rpHE suliscribor having been appointed Agent for the A counties of Bradford, Sullivan and Lycoming, has the ; pleasure of calling the attention of the public to this useful invention. The Hive is truly a great improvement on the •>ld square box ; and the facilities it affords for taking out the honey are.as harmless to the bees, as they are profita ble to the owner. No resort to drums and pans is needed to hive the increase in the spring, and no resort to brim stone. fire and fagot is required to conquer the bees and procure their honey in the fall. As the bees multiply, new sections are added to the hive : and when the honey is wanted, they are removed accordingly. The arrange ment- for feeding the bees, for changing thonT to different parts of the old hive, or to a new one, for ventilation, are iinqiicstioni|lily ahead of any tiling hitherto known. A description ol tlii- Hive is impossible, without refer ence to a model, hut an examination will satisfy any one of its advantages. For sale, Town and Individual Rights, with hooks, hill of feed, Ac., giving full directions for ma king the Hive, and managing the Bees. May 1,1155. GEORGE S. KEEN. SSO 0 REWARD!

IIALSEYS' FOREST WINE —The , discovery of the B >RKST WINK is the greatest hies- j sing of the age. Put up in Quart Bottles, u single bottle ' rrf" which it'f rrmre good, anil {rocs further in the cure of Disease, than tan bottles of any Sarsaparilla in use, and warranted to cure without an unpleasant or weakening effect. The method bv which all Rarssaparillas.and other simi- | lar medicines are prewired, is hv boiling the Jtoots of plants to obtain the extract-. Their nieilieinal virtues are thus principally evaporated and destroyed. It is not to be wondered at then. that. 10 and even 20 bottles of these Sarsaparißa- are sometimes taken without any |>ereeptible benefit. Not so with the Forest Wine. lly the invention of a wonderfulrhemienf apparatus, a per fect wine is produced without lieating; retaining, at the same time, ail the primitive healing properties of the rare medicinal plants of which it is composed, thus rendering the Forest Wine the most efficient medicine the world ever produced, at the same time time the most agreeable. !
