The Four Philosophers.
Four great philosophers
Come every year ;
Teach in the open air,
Then disappuur.
Winter' the Stoic,
So chill and heroic i
lie Bits in tho mountain breeze biting and
Eure
en, to bring fonr and doubt,
Damp night and winds are out,
Wraps an old cloak about he cun enduro.
Spring, at dull hearts to mock,
Comes io a farming frock,
With garlands and ploughshare a lesson doth
give ;
ITe sings through the fiold awhile,
Turns up the soaking soil,
-All haste and laughing toil briskly can live.
Summer, with niantlo free,
V.nicnrprin he.
Lolls in the cooling shade, like a tired-boy ;
While blasting suns unKinn,
Leave the stout mower blind,
Whore faints the mountuin wind ho can
enjoy.
Antum, whon nil are done,
lie's the eooil Christian one :
Fills well the granaries where seods may lie
.New, coming years to bless :
Then in his russet dress,
All hope and quietness sweetly con die.
Jmiiur's jjpcpavtamit.
A Good IIousr. Tho New-York Spirit
of the Timtt gives the following characteristics
of a eood horse : 1. His eyes when seen in
the stable, are perfectly clear and transparent
mid the pnpils or apple of tho eyes tiro alike
in color and size. 2. On being nipped in the
pullet, he will utter a sound like that from a
b jIIows. If on the contrary ho should civs
vent to a dry, husky, ebort cough, beware of
him. llis wind is unsound. A. 11 is legs are
smooth and "clean." If you find bunches or
pulls, or a uiiittrcnce iu sizo though ho may
not be lame, disease lurks there. 4. If broad
nnd full between the eves, be is susceptible
t) being trained to almost anything. 4. If
some white or parti colored, he is docile and
gentle.
Impurk Seeds from Patknt Office. Mr
Bronson Murray, of Ottawa, 111., sends the
2'rairic Farmer seven different varietiej of
foul seeds taken from onepaukago of "Brent
nta wheat."' They are chess, cockle, wild
peas a bean a burr, oats and smut. In the
package are also grown wheat and two Varie
ties of weevil, while the uhoat itself is musty,
and a spr'ng variety, though it is marked
"sow in autumn." We agree with Mr M. in
the opinion that the Patent Office Commis
sioner must be mistaken ia tho qualiQcatioas
of some of his employees. Such "choice seed
can be t.o accquisition and its distribution
must prove injurious rather than beneficial to
agriculturists.
Rennet. A poice the size of a dollar of
strong rennet soaked 21 hours in tea cup of
water will turn 10 gallons of milk.
Grattan's Veneration for old Trees.
Tie loved old trees, and usod to say; Never
cut down a tree for fashion sake. The tree
has its roots in the earth, which the fashion
lias not." A favorite old tree stood near the
house at Tiuehinch. A friend of (j rattan's
thinking it obstructed tho view reccom mended
him to cut it down. "Why so?" said Grattan.
"Because it stands in tho way of tho house."
Urattun. "You mistake ; it is the house
that stands in the way of it and if either comes
down lot it bo tho house." Cnrran's Sketches
of the Irish Bar.
A Mule in possession of a farmer near Bal
lingloes Ireland, has been employed in tho
transit ammunition, &c, to Viuegar 1 1 ill,
since 1798. There is saying at the South
that a white mule lives longer than any other
mule. Some years ugo one of that color on
Middlelon's estate, in South Carolina, was
above 80 years old, and still at work.
The Plowshare.
Tho bark may rest upon the wave, tho spear
may gather dusf,
But never may the prow that cuts tho furrow
lie and rust ;
Its metal ia unsullied, no blood-stain lingers
there, '
God speed it well, and let it thrive unshack
led everywhere. Eliza Cook.
The Wild Tino of the West Indies, which
grows on tun branches of trees in hot climates
where there is little ruin, has a mug which
hold aquort; when the dew fulls it is received
and a valvo closes at the top and prevents
evaporation. Often birds insert their bcuks
and procuro water therefrom.
Intrkahk in onk Season. It is stated by
Bussingault that a beet seed weighing but
tno iractiou ol a grain, lias produced a beet
a bcot in ono season woiuhing one hundred
and sixty-two thousand grains or twenty-eight
pounds.
Buttermilk is bi?st. of cream soured and
modorately thick. If water has bpen noured
into the churning, it will riso to the top arier
a few hours nnd cau be poured olf. Indeed
au excelluut milk managing neighbor, who
cannot churn often pours a pitcher of water
into her buttermilk every morning, stirs it
well and pours it off at dinner sho says it
keeps it fresh all tho timo. Clabber, surnlus
buttermilk or sour skim milk, heated until it
curds, makes good chicken teed
Butter. Numbers of reliublo experiments
have proved that butter made from sour

most economical use of the milk all in ull
