HOME! SWEET. SWEET HOME.
BP MkS. F. A. TINNEIIILL
There is a word whose
.magic power breathes o'er each
varied aceae,
And sheds a hallo bright and clear,upoti the darkest dream—
'Tis fraught wall happiness and cheer, love dueHs in every
tone,
While earth - *, reinotest welkin riugs, with notes of "home,
• sweet home. l,
Some say this world is dark and drear, a picture nought but
shade,
Awl sighs and tears the treasures are, which on its shrine
are laid—
ft may be so to hose who tread life's rale unloved, - alone,
Whose bosom's he'er have felt the thrill which springs
from "114, sweet,home."
I met a timid, troubling girl, input whose heart and mind,
Affliction deep 1141 sot its seal. for she. alas. WIN blind
And though arould her youthful brow "a night of yeArs"
was throtra,
She sang of happiness and joy, and talked of 'dome, sweet
home." II
I visited the maniac's cell. end heard the raving' will.
Of the aged, ant the youthful, runt one poor helpless child ;
And whilo 1. gazed upon the wreck, where re:e.ou once had.
shone, •
31s tears fell five, for will their woo, they spoke or "home,
meet howl."
The pebbly brook, the warbling bird, the - stortn-king's
angry eh riek,
Are echoes of tbdt voice divine which to earth's children
speak, ;
The queen of nizhe, the twinkling stars, that shine in
Ileaven'S dome,
Shed o'er the mjul their influence sweet, and point to
hhome, Awret home) ,
And thus in every clime and age, where foot of man hag
trod, j
The world teemsiwith the beautiful, the gifts of nature's
tiod.
Lore lends a ralinnu bright and clear, to guile the spirit
on, . • •

A Marvelous Conjurer.
- Ordinary "magicians" would feel rather
nervous at the idea of undertaking the. re
markable feats recited below. We must re
mark", however, that as regards the perform
ance mentioned last in the following•article.
it dues nut appear to have hen altogether ori
ginal with him. It is related of Cag,liostro,'
that having'deposed Frederick, and -received
an order to . leave Berlin, he went out in a
mach-and-six, throngli each of the six princi
pal gates of iue city at the same in•ttint
time, exactly 12 M. All the •g rte keeprs
knew him, and te-titied, t.i having seen him
depart at that identieal moment.
The Russians have long exhibited a remark
able taste fur joggling and all that snmeics
of the marvelous. Conjurers, professors of
natura l nhigiu, t eiatrii ivi ispi and the entire
race of montebanks, who France and Eng
hind astonish the taping en iwils at rat-es and
~itiontry Lairs; ever find a ready welcome and
liberal encouragement among the higher class
es in the Bussian c'ties. A knit the hegitining
tif the present Century, a species ttf Cagliosiro,
or rather a superior kind of- Wizard of the
North, made his appearance at St:—Peters
;nag, and astonished the nark es by his mar
velous performances. His name dais Piruet
ti, and his:fame is 3 - et retainei.l'i a the memory
of those who have witnessed his unrivalled
talents.
Tice Czar Alexander, having heard Pirnetti
much spoken of, was desirous of seeing him,
mid Ana day it was announeed to the conjurer
that lie would have ,the honor of giving a rep
resentation of his magical powers at coal
the hour fixed for him to make his appearance
imeing seven o'clock. A hrillnint and sin
assembly of ladies and courtiers, presided
over by die Czar, hail met, but the cii j Arm
was absent. Surprised and displeased, die
Czar pulled out ltis watch, which indicated
live minutes alter ,seven. Pienetti had not
only failed ill nut hieing in waning, but he
mui caused the court to wait, and Alexander
was nut inure patient that .I.ouis N 11". A
quarter of an hour passed, half an hour, and

watches of those present, and in the clocks of
the palace. The exploit was followed by oth
ers equally alllUshig and surprising.
At the close of the performance, the Czar,
after having eomplinruted firuetti, brought
back to his remembrance that, in the course
of the evening's amusements, he had de
clan d that he could penetrate everywhere.
"Yes sir, everywhere," replied the conjurer
with modest assuranee.
"What?" exclaimed the Czar, 4, oeould you
penetrate even into this p'tlace, were 1 to
ordee all the doors to be closed and guard
ed
"Into this palace, sir, even into the apart
ment of your majesty, quite as easily AS
I should' enter into my own house," said - Pir
net
"Well, then," said the Czar, "at mid-day
to-morrow 1 shall he ready in my closet with
the price of this evening's amusement—One
thouslne roubles. Come amt fetch them.
But I roman you that the doors shall be care
tullyclosed and guarded."
"To-morrow at ntid-day I shag have the
loolor of prose nti myself . before your majes
ty," and he bowed - and withdrew.
Two gentlemen of the household followed
the conjurer to make sure he quitted the pal
ace; they accompanied him to his lodgings,
and a number of the police surrounded the
dwelling from the moment he entered it.—
The palace was instantly closed, with posi
tive orders not to sull'er, under env pretext
whatever, any one to enter, were lie prince
or valet, until the Czar himself com.nand the
(101,1-s to lie opened. These or d ers were
strictly enforced—confidential persons having
watelled'their execution. The exterior open
in:rs to the palace were guarded by the sol
diery. Ail the approaches to the imperial
apartments were protectei by high dignitar
ies, whom a simple professor of the art of
legerdemain possesses no means of bribing.
In 'short, - for greater security, all theNkeys
had been carried into the imperial cabinet.
A f e w moments previous to the hour fixed for
Pirnetti's interview with the Czar, the cham
herktin on service brotvght to his majesty a
diliateli which a messenger had handed hint
through an opening in the door. It was a re
port from the minister of police that l'iruetti
had not 'left, home.

king is impracticable, and he has abandoned
it," observed the Czar, with a smile.
Twelve o'cloock. suundell. While the last
stroke yet reverberated, the door which com
municated from thelied-room of the Czar to
the Cabinet (Tuned, turd Pirnetti appeared.
The Czar drew back, a couple of paces, hi:,
brow darkened, - ,,nd atter a momentary si
lence, while fixing a suspicious look on Pir
netti, he said, --are you aware that you may
become a very dangerous individual?"
"Yes sir," lie replied: "1 am only an hum
ble conjurer, with no ambition but that, of
atnusilig your ina estv."
“Iferc," said the Char, "are a thousand rou
bles for I:vat-night, and at thousand more fur
this day's visit:"
ririletti, iu oirering his thanks, was inter-'
rupted by the Czar, who - wail a thoughtful
zu r in, t aircil of him, - `l). , you count on yet re
timining bottle time in St. Petersburg?'
••Sire," he replied "I intend setting off this
week, unless your majesty , orders a prolonga
tion of my sojouria!'
"So," hastily .iliserved the Czar, "it is nut
my intention to detain you, and moreover,"
he c ottinued, with it smile, "I should vainly
endeavor to , keep you against 'your

lou know how to leave St. Petersburg IL
easily as you have thund your way into this

I could do so, sire," said Pirnetti ; "that

Jones is a merchant of some standing in

Ths Farmer's Daughter.
A few years

Easton, Pennsylvania, sent his daughter on
horseback to that town to procure from the
bank, small notes for a one hundred dollar
bill. When arrived there the bank was clos

offering it at several stores, but could not get

It was with some dillieulty that She could
.be made to believe him in earnest it his de

a doubt and site yielded from necessity. Just

standing by her side started with her. his

saddle bags. When these were opened, be

TWO DOLLARS A-YEAR'.
From Moore's Rural New Yorker.
Ashes as a Manure.
Ens. Emu, :—Facts in agriculture, though
of seeming insignifieatee, tire always interest
ing and valuable. I du not suppose that Ii
have any of very much importance-to offer,
yet think light, wanted on the use orashes as
a manure, I would state a few items of my
esperienee.
It is well known that ashes are of much,
benefit to corn—applied - as a hill-dressing
abut it the time of the first hoeing. r .enabling it
to get a better start in the curly part of the
season, and thus preparing it better td with
stand the drouth of mid-summer. The past
summer we . noticed a material difference in the
yield of corn fields, dressed and undressed„'.
which could only ,be attributed to this fact:'
Some mix plaster with the Itithes, salt and
plaster,we have made use generally of ashes,.
applying about , two table .spoonfuls to each
hill. It is a course we would recommend to
all corn growers in this'sieetion,-but itshould
be remembered that corn 'needs manure be
side, and we cannot well get too much of it.
Fur taitatoes, ashes form a valuable fertil
izer. rho past season we plowed up a por
tion of loamy sward ground, some of whfeh
had been dressed - with ashes in considerable
quantity—perhaps at the rote. of tWenty-fire
bushels to the acre. TheY had been spread
there at different times the season previuttii,
as taken from the kitchen stove, to - the mani
fest improvement of the meadow—but their
influence on the potatoes 'planted this' season,
was far more striking. Where nwashes had
been applied, the growth of the vines wits
small and much retarded by the dronth—the
soil itself seemed loss • mellow-and fririble--;..
while the asbed part gave a - luxuriant gruivth
of vines; and the potatoes trim More than
double in size hail quantity than those 'on the
unashed. Plaker, it is well known-ria -
made top-dressing kir pottito
ashes equally good 4ipplied in the sumo
manner.
