wit ands Rumor:
"AAi!
While' ascending the Mississippi, Some
eighteen months since, on board the steam=
boat Huntsville, the commander of that ex
'ceUent Vessel related the followiisg anecdote
of a ccitiple of worthy disciples of old Father
In Coles county there lived a man named l i
Dodson, and his - wife, who were both firm
believers in the prophecy of old Father Mil
ler ; and not doubting, for a. moment the
correctness of-their Prohet's calculations for
the eventful_ day that was ,to terminate the
existence ofall sublunary-things.
After having set their house in order, the
following conversation took place:
"My dear wife, I believe I have" 'made
every preparation for to-morrow. I have
forgiven all mine enemies, and prayed foi
the forgiveness of all rny.sins, • and I feel per
fectly calm and resigned."
" Well, husband, I believe I am ready for
the sound of Iliairumpet.:'
"I am rejoiced to Mar it., But, my dear
wife, I haveuo doubt there are many do
mestic secrets which we have hidden from
each other;, which, had they been kpown at
the time of their occtipence, might have
produced= unpleasant feelings; but as we
have but one day to live I reckon it's right
-to make a clean breast to each other. lam
ready—"
"You begin, husband." •
" No, dear, you begin."
"No, husband, - you begin--I can't."
"No--you know, my love, Paul says,
" husbands have the right to command - their
wives." It is your duty as a ebristian wo
man, to obey your husband—the father of
your children—so begin, love."
" In the sight of God I reckon it is right,
so I will tell you; dedr husband—your oldest
son, William, r ts not your child."
" Great God, Mary ! I never dredmt of
your being untrue .to me! Is that true ?"
" Yes, God forgive At ; it is true. I know
that I did very wrong, but I am sorry for it;
in tin evil hour I fell, but there
~is no help
for it now." .
"William is not mine! In the name of
God whose child is he?"
gl lie is Mr. G . abant'e, the constable.—
The Lord be new your poor wile!"
"So Willionk ain't my child? Go on."
" Well, our daughter Mary, named .after
me, ain't yours neither."
"Salvation ! Talk on, Mary—come right
out. Who's Mary's father?"
"Mr. Glider, the man that built the meet
ing house, and went to the lower country."
" Well, as there is but one day more, I'll
bear it, so go on if you haie anything else."
44 Well, there is our youngest—"
"I suppose Jiminy ain't mine?"
" No, dear husband. Jimmy, that we
both low, so well, ain't yours either."
•• Merciful Lord ! Is It so ? In the name
of the Saviour whOse is he ?"
"He is the one-eyed shoe-maker's who
lives at the'forks of the road.'-!,
•• Well, my God ! Gabriel blow, blow your
horn! I want to go NOW."
COLLEGE EXAMENATION.—B-----, who
has since made quite a noise in the world,
while at college, was called upon to undergo
an examination in astronomy. On emer
ging from the ordeal, one of bis companions
asked him bow he-got off. " First rate,"
said B—;" they only asked two questions,
and I answered them both promptly and cor
rectly." "What were the questions?"—
" The first teas What was a Parallax ?"
`and'l told them I didn',t know ! and the sec

to 'hich I answered no ! I'd like to see
anybody answer two questions more correctly
than that !"

Sons YEARS ago a Philadelphia mer-
chant sent a cargo of goods to Constantino
ple. After the supercargo saw the bales and
bores safely landcd, lie inquired where they
could be stored. —Leave them hereot won't
rain to-night," was the reply. But I dare
not: leave them thus exposed, some of the
goods may be stolen," said the Mussulman
supercargo. The Malrommedan merchant
burst into a loud laugh, as ne replied, "Don't
be algrineel, there ain't a Christian within fifiy
miles of here." -

THINNESS OF A SOAP BABBLE.
rir A soap-bubble, as kt floats in the light of the
sun, reflects to the eye an, endless variety of the
Most gorgeous tints of color. Newton showed that
to each of these tints corresponds a certain thick
ness of the itabstance forming Vse bubble; in fact,
he showed, in general, that all ttansparein attbstart
ces, when reduced to a certain degree of tenuity,
would reflect these colors: Near the highest point
of the bobble, just before it bursts, is always ob
serve:la spot which reflects no color, and appears
slack. 'Newton showed that the thickness of the
bubble at this black point was the 2,500,000 th part
of an inch ! Now . , as the bubble at this point pos
sesses the properties of water as essentially as
does the Atlantic Ocean, it follows that the ulti
mate molecules forming water must have less di
mensions than this thicknesis.—fardiner's Hand
book
TO MAKE YEAST OASES.
rir Take' s many ) hops is you can hold in the
hand twice, put therri,over the fire in three pints of
water, let them boil .3 twenty minutes. Strain into
an earthen vessel and while scalding hot, stir in
auffic!ent rye meal to make a sufficient batter ; let
it stand until take-warm, then add •a cup full of
brewer's yeast, or double the quantity of home
made. Let it rise very light, mix in sufficient hi
dian meal to make • it hard enough ;o roll into thin
cakes—cut the cakes three or four inches square—
dry in the shade,•tuming Mee to prevent souring..
When dry hang in a thin bag.vrhere they will have
air. Two of these cakes are sufficient to raise a
large loaf of bread. If the rye meal is not at hand
wheat flour will answer.
WASHES'S RUDE EASY.
flr The "crazy folks" in the asylum at Hart
ford, Ct., mix a gill of alcohol with a gallon of soft
soap, just as they are a piing to rub it on the
clothes, which they then soak two or three hours,
and then merely rinse out in clean water, and all the
dirt is taken out as effectually as good sense is out of
a fellow after drinking the same quantity of the
" poison stuff." That is the easiest way to make
washing easy. In washing stairs and passages, al
ways use a sponge instead of a cloth. when wash
ing the space between the carpet and wall, and
you will not soil the edges. Sponge is cheap,iind

GIP WIT?; IS CARBOIC ACID frequently found at
the bottom of mines, wells, A7c. ? Because it is
much heavier than atmospheric air. Workmen
ought never to venture into such places without
previously letting down a lighted candle. If the
candle burn! , , they may enter sately ; if not, quick
lime Should be let down in buckets, and gradually
sprinkled with water. As the lime flacks, it will
absorb the carbonic acid gas, and the, workmen
may afterwards descend in safety.—Parlis:
In these eases, the carbonic acid issues troru cre
vices in the earth, and is produced by unknown
sources. imi/araccidents happen to .persons in
cautiously descending into brewers' vats, before
they have been purified from this gas. We were
tolu of three or four such cases at the orewbouse of
Messrs. Barclay and Perkins, as we were Talking
over their stupendous store-rats a few years since
Vt r itY no NOT PLANTS flourish in the (lark 7
Because no oxygen is then produced by them, and
no carbonic acid absorbed. Light exercises_a very
remarkable' influence upon the irritability of the
sensitive plant, Thus, if a sensitive plant be placed
in complete darkness, by carrying if within an opa
que vessel, it will entirely lose its irritability; and
that in a variable time, ac - cording to licertain state
of depression or elevation of the Surrounding tern
-perature. •
Again, Mr. Burnet finds that when a sernitive
plant has been made to droop, if the part in whish
the moving power resides is blackened so as to ab
sorb the light or the sun, the restoration of the plant
to its natural state is vecy much longer before it
takes place. He also finds that at the moment the
expansion at the foot of the leaflets, or other party{
is touched, to produce the motioccol the plaid, it

WilY AFI6 nscs the Most persecuted of in : .
sects ? Because every living thing, from man (Iowa:
to en ephemeral insect, pursues the Leo to its des
truction for the sake of the honey that -is deposited
in its cell , or secreted in its honey-bag. To Minm

birds and insects are on the watch, and en iperesq

,the changes in the weather, such as high wind,
sudden showers, hot sunshine; and then there is
are liability to fall into rivers, besides a hunt!red
other dangers to which bees are exposed.
The average number of a hive, or swarm, is
from fifteen to twenty thousand. Nineteen thous

re WHY DOES 1110NT.4 differ from wax'
cause honey is n simple substance, extracted by
bees from the Hower; whereas, wax is a Secretion
found in feales under their belly. The wax-work

flowers, hang motionless in festoons in the hive ;
and in twenty-tour hour., scales of a white matter.
like vale, are formed under the ring of the abdomen.
WHY IS IT WHIMSICAL to save bees when their
one is taken? Because they' must he fed; and
if saved, they will die of old age- before tho next
1..01; and though young ones will supply the place
of the dead, there nothing like a good swarm put
up during the summer.
This is Mr. Cobbett's opinion. i Paving The
bees be whimsies!, ire. harmless : and it is better
to be whimsical than cruel.
tom"WITY DO BEES, when they swarm, fly to
wards trees? Because they like the pure air of
the higher regions better than the air enclosed in
hires, which receive the exhalations of the earth,
and in which contagioui; diseases make great rare
gee. Thus, in Livonia, bees are l i tivaied in for
ests, and are never knoWn to ewer towards the
gardens.
Ear WHY Is THE EMT situation of a bee-house
a halo to the west of the south ? Itemise the min,
shining into the mouth of the hive too early, calls
the bee abroad before the cold steam is 'exhaled
from the flowers, and the vernal juice turned WO'

reach the front of the house about tine o'clock.
rir WHY ARE SEVERING moths AO fatal to bees?
Because they lay their eggs at the- mouth of the
hive, and, with the wind of their wing•, fan them
within the hive, where the warmth of the bees
hatches them to their own ruin.
ar Wn DO revs test- in clusters or festoons?
Because four or Ave cling to a part of the hive, and
extend their hind -legs, 'whence othirs suspend
themselves by their tore-feet, and so en for other

RED: TRUTH STRANGER TITAN FICTION!
AiLLEar, Mass., April 26, ISM.
William Wright, Esq.—Dear 'Sic—For many years
we have been the Salem agents, and also at one time
the county agents, for the sale of your valuable medi
cine, and during the whole of Obi, time we are not
aware that, in any one Instance,-have the pine which
w e my., 'old been complained of an causing Injury, or
not accomplishing their proper mission. It is doubly
gratifying when we receive voluntary testimony from
a armee where the medicine which is - sold has been
the meansordoing great good and ofiaving Many lives.
Last year we sold three dozen Mazes to go to a for
eign port, and this day have received a letter from the
merchant who ordered them, giving an account of the
wouderfnl effects which they did in curing a large
num b er . o r persons who were attacked with a prevail
ing epidemic similar to the yellow fever; while those
tinder the regular physicians' treatment, who were I n
the Hospital, twine three hundred, including the
f/overnor, blagistrates,asc., fell victims to Ow disease.
If you would like a copy ofOur letter,we don't know
of any impropriety in giving it you, and perhaps it
would be of vervire to have itpublished, togetherwith
our names, as it is addressed to tie. We will consult
the parties interested, and if you wish it, you will
please write us. Respectfully, yours,
W. & S. B. Ives.
The following is the letter alluded In above
CAYENNE, Match 22, ISM,
Messrs. W. &. S. B. Ives, Merchants, Batem :
.Gentlenten—For some years past I have adopted In
my family, as a purgative, Dr. Wright's Indian VI-ge
table Pills (for whom you are his agents to sale's)
arid have found that medicine of great worth.
List November we were visited hy a kind of inflam
matory fever, (the same I presume which greatly at
dieted our neighbors, the Brazilians, for nearly a year)
the symptoms of which had an analogy to the yellow
fever, and nearly three hondred persons fell victim. to
the epidemic (a great number fors fINPUIatiON assmail
ac ours,) Oar, doctots named it the true yeaow fever,
but their skill was inefficient to stop its progress, con
fining their mode of treatment to the use of quinine,
and the application of leeches, forbidding the use of
purgatives, and of course all the soldiers and sailors,
who were obliged to be sent to the. losnitals, 81, also
the Governor. several Magistrate , sever.il officers,
and In fact all those who were real ) afflicted with Ike
disease, fell victims under their mode of treatment.
A' month previous. I had received tbri e dozen hoses
of or. Wright's Pills, which 1 preinme were bought
at your store by Messrs. Goldsmith, Newcomb dr.
Fatless, merchants in your city, and with whom I am
doing business. I had the upportunity to administer
these Pills to several undermy rear, who were sMirt
ed with the sane fever, and two dote* of eight Pills
each completely cured them of the Complaint. I then
gave sway nearly all my Plils to some twenty nr thir
ty persons. and all were relieved 1!* it were by en
chantment.
I have. in teansequence, remitted , to Hems. Cold
ar
smith, Nei,nmb and Fatless, the sum of forty dollar
gm the purchase of thatnuant By of this nieiliclue.an.
I foreg of yoteto deliver the Pills as fresh es possikle
I request you also to desire Dr. Wright to have his
directions translated in French, which wilitend great
lg to circulate his Pills not only here, but also' in the
othercolonies wherethepopuistlon Is gimp numerous.
Excuse me, gentlemen, in the liberty 1 bare taken
to address you thieletter, tallith, for the sake of hu
manttyothave been compelled to do, as I do not mean
to speculate on an :mirk which proved salutary to a
number of poor people, and in fart wait of the popu
lation is reduced to a state of indigence, and it would
be sinful for animist to seek lucre in such a way.
Accept, gentlemen, the most sespeetful salutations
of_your, verjobedlent servant - , • A. Pietism.

CURRANT BUSH ES
Having noticed that Currant bushes an
as well be made trees as shrubs, I have ea:
eluded' to tell you how I hare ken it-dant
in the spring of 1831 my father comment
a garden, and among other things set a
tings ; 'and as soon as they grew, 1 pinehri,
off all the leaves except the top tuft tvloc's
I let grow. The cutting was phut roue
teen inches high, and 'during the sum?
the sprout.from the top of this grew-11F' -%
haps ten inOes. ;he next spring I pinch
off all the eaves to about half way pp
first year's growth, so as to leave the ior
est limbs about two feet from the ' , tonal
It branched well alto became a nice lit':
dwarf tree. When it came to bear fruit,
was more productive ,than any other bag
in the garden; and the, fruit larger, it 01
less infected with spiders',-and other insecu'r.
hens could not pick off the fruit, and gill '
and weeds are more easily kept from aW
the roots—and it was an ornament insts.:, ; „
of a 'blemish. Now Fwould propose tit
currant cuttings be set in rows about ILl'
feet apart each way ; let them be, long o`_ .
straight ones, and trained into trees . -3L:'" .. .
