A llnmoron Will.
HOW EXSIS TtXLE DISPOSED OF HIS
rilOriEHTY ONE nrNDRED YEARS AGO.
Feter G. Ebermnn, Esq., . ia going
tbrongh the old wills m tbe Register's of
fice, puUiog tbeiu iu order, &c, and among
others discovered one that was written by
tnaa who committed suicide ia tho Sus
quehanna at Columbia, more ihan one hun
dred years ago, but which was never pro
bated. We give portions of the will below
copied verbatim :
This wil be fouud after my Deth if duty
look bharp. As I noe the people that lies
found my carkas is curious about the man
ner of my deth, wich is somcihiug out of
the way, 111 give them anl tbe satisfaction
in nay power about it, as I noe the whole
matter from beginning to end whice is
me own misfortnne, that I married a cross
woman that is never plazed but wheu
the 'a vexing mee and sphending me sub
stance, whereby I have beeu reduced to
great shifts as well the world knows and
Fadder McDonough in particular. It
may be reported as the world is greatly
given to lying, that I died by accident ;
but thets a mistake, for I throwed mee
eelf icto the river a Wedsdav evening, be
ing tired of the world and fretted out of
my life ; and as the little that's left of me
substance is not much, I hope there will bo
do quarrelicg about my disposing of :t iu
the following manner :
There may be in my breeches pocket (as
I put there all I bad) about something
less thau half a guinea in silver and six
pence, and some half-pence. Give that t i
little Dolly McGinuit.
s
Peter Doyle make me pay to much for
me cabin and little bit, of potato ground,
but I made it answer by cbaten the parson
and one way and toddet ; so I lave it to
my youngest sou, Robin, because I lore
him brtter than Corney and his rouddcr,
they'll provide for themselves. Ihadenuf
to do to maintain them during my life,
and I'm shure I'll not trouble my head
about them now I'm dead-
My sow and pigs, and my crucifix, along
wid my bades, my tobacco, too hens, and
ray mass book, I (ave to Fodder McDouock j
for though be squeete h 11 fire hard, bee's j
a good enuf bowl at tbe bottom. i
Me oak saplin, my dog, my woollen
eight cap, aud my razor I give to honest
Toby Ilooragan, the best cratur that ever
dru breath. I Save him also me good shirt
As to the one I have on now, it is not
worth anybody's taking, and so I lave it
to my wife, that she may have bo reason
to complain.' Dennis toole.

Mark Twain, in a letter to tbe inven
tor of a ruusquito net, talks in this way
about the only thing worth talking about,
uow that the third term is gone : There
is uothing that a just and right-feeling
"toan rejoices in inure thau to see a mos
quito imposed on and put down and brow
beaten aud aggravated, and this ingenious
contrivance will do iL And it is a rare
thing to worry a ilr with, too. A fly will
stand off and curse this iurculiou till lan
guage utterly fails him. I have seen them
do it hundreds of times. I like to dine in
the air on the back porch in summer, aud
so I would Lot be without this portable
net for anythiug. When you get it hois
ted the flits have to wait for the second
table. We shall see the summer day come
when we shall sit under our nets in church
and slumber peacefully, while the discom
fited flics club together and lake it out of
the minister. There are heaps of ways of
gctlicg priceless enjoyment out of these
charming things, if I had time to point !
them out and dilate on them a little.

A tramp who called upon a J)iulury
woman was shocked to hear iu auswer to
his appeal for food 'Xo, we've got nolhin'
for the likes of you. Washington's monu

we've got to spare must be given to that.1

THE LIOHT RUNNING "DOMESTIC."
The Iometlc.
The "DOMESTIC" is an exceedingly simple
machine in all Its parts and processes. It is
easily understood ; familiarity with its action Is
very quickly acquired, and it needs hardly any
practice of special skill in the operator.
The superior advantages obtained In the "Do
mestic" arc maiuly :
1. Light Running.
2. Quietness no Cams or Gear Wheels.
8. Perfect Stitch Double-thread Lock Stitch.
4. Durability arising from Simplicity of Con
struction. 5. Absence of all Friction.
6. Great range of Work.
7. Ease of Operation.
We do not say that the "Domestic" Is the only
Machine worthy of public favor. We admit
there are some possessing real and acknow
ledged merit ; but wc do claim, unJ are prepared
to demonstrate, that the "Domfrtic" has many
excellences that reuder It decidedly ujtrior to
any other Machine now before the public.
Let every woman, therefore, examine for hex
slf into its merits when she buys a machine.
This is an important purchase, uot to be care
lessly made ; one thai will influence her com
fortprobably for a long time. With a "Domes
tic" in her possession, she will find her sewing
become a pleasant exercise of skill and taste, in
stead of a slow manual drudgery ; she will have
the time and strength to add beauty and elegance
to work in which before she has been obliged to
context herself with bare utility.

"Behold I will tand beore the there

unite the rock and there thall conn ra
ter mtt of it that the peojUe may drink." Ex.
Perhaps at no period of christian history from
the days in which Christ astonished the multi
tude at the pool of Bclhesda, has such an excite
ment prevailed among the sick as is now created
by tbe accidental discovery of a fountain of min
eral water which beyond cavil eclipses the whole
fraternity of the learned facilty iu restoring to
original health almost every form of chronic dis
ease. Finding it hniotsible to accommodate the
sick, here the proprietors propose to furnish tbe
concentrated incdiclue prepared by simply reduc
ing the water by evaporation into a line powder
or Mass, which posesscsall the wonderful virtues
of tbe water in a cheap and convenient form. The
Mass is a tine tonic, alterative aud absorbent and
is especially useful to ladies suffering from irreg
ularities and affections peculiar to their sex. It
has been universally approved and endorsed by
the Medical Profession wherever introduced, both
as a diteideratum in their materia, .-.cd as the bet
popular remedy ever offered in the cure of Asth
ma, Billious Alfectioiis,Brouchltis,Chills,Cougbs,
Caucer, Atiatie C'Aofcri,Crauip Choiic, Cutaneous
Eruptions, Dyspepsia, Consumption, Dropsy,

from the Blood, Liver or Kidneys.
Dissolved in water it makes an excellent wash,
gargle and injection, and incorporated with fresh
lard, jitrmanently cures the most obstiuate case of
Piles. The claims of this remedy cannot be. over
estimated in tbe cure of the diseases mentioned
above. The Aualysis of the Mass by Prof. Cuus.
F. Chandler, Ph. D. of the Oollege of Pharmacy,
New York City, proves Its perfect adaptation to
every form of disease proceeding from tbe Stom

Set-tiro oat strawberry beds will now soon be
in order. This should not be done before the
last week in this month. Most growers prefer Sep
tember, as late as tbe middle of the month, for
the work. The plants for new beds are of coarse
of this year's growth. They should be taken
up with care, so as not to bruise the roots ; and
after being taken up should not ba exposed to
the sun, but covered with soil, or rolled up in a
cloth, moistened and put in tbe shade until
ready to set. Plant rather deep and make the
soil firm around them. If hills are desired, in or
der to cultivate between, the plants should be
set about thirty Inches apart each way ; but if
a bed is preferred, one foot to fifteen inches la
space enongh. Both methods have their advo
cates, but the one to adopt should depend upon
the natnre of the plant. Those of strong and
rampant growth, like the Monarch of the West,
Tnum ph de Grand, Ac, will probably do best
Iu hills ; while others of smaller growth, like
Hovey, Dowuer's Prolific, and half-a-dozen
others, do best in beds. When cold weather
sets iu the beds should have a light covering of
straw or stable manuring. In the sprint; if any
of this litter should be in the way, it can be re
moved ; otherwise let it remain. Germantomn

ing the ground well cultivated around the vines
to admit air and warmth. Grape vises need no
summer mnlch. Even In our hottest and dryest
weather we have never known grape vines to be
injured by drouth, aud we nuderstand that they
endure the severe dry seasons in California with
out injury. The more protracted the drouth the
deeper the grape roots will strike down for mois
ture. The common disease of vines, mildew,
etc., oiiginate in too much moisture aud too low
a temperature. To cover tha ground with a
mulch only makes the matter worse. It U some
times advisable to protect grape vines from the
severity of Northern winters, but the coveriug '
should be promptly removed so soon as warm
weather comes in spring. Rural Xem Yorker.
To Get Land Isto Grass. Ia answer to a
Ne Jersey correspondent, the Jiaral Xeie York
er: We shonld advise shallow plowing of such
soil as the best preparation for getting it into
grass. Still a thorough pulverization of the sur
face to make a good seed bed wonld auswer. If
intended for permauent pasture, sow this fall a
mixture of Timothy and Jane grass. It Is pro
bable that the land is not rich enough, and in
that case sow a mixture of Orchard gross and
Clover next spriug with one bushel of Oats and
Barley pet acre. The Clover will be the chief
erop the first year, and shonld be let grow with
out pasturing till it is in blossom. Orchard
grass will spread rapidly as the Clover runs oat.
Do not pasture the Orchard grass until the sod
is fully established. After that the closer
browsed it is kept the better. Sheep are just the
stock to feed down Orchard grass, as they bite
close and distribute their manure evenly.
Wheat os Clover Sod. The best prepara
tion for a wheat crop is a good clover lay. This
should be turned under by the first of August, to
give time for decomposition before sowing the
wheat. If the plowing is not done till the first
of September, when the wheat is to be sown, an
other month must pass before any real benefit
can occur to the growing plaut. Lime sowed
on the clover before taming it tinder, assists
materially in hastening decomposition, and if
plowing has been deferred until nearly seeding
time, it will be found very advantageous. Take
one year with another I have observed that a
good, healthy growth in tbe fall is essential to
success in growing wheat, and tbe farmer can
not take too much pains in trying to secure this
growth. J. H., in Ohio Farmer.
The Oniox as Food. It is stated that the
onion forms one of the common and universal
supports of life in Spain and Portugal. Authori
ty shows, according to analysis, the dried onion
contains from 25 to 30 per cent, of gluten, and
ranks in this respect with the nutritious pea and
tbe grains. "It is not merely as a relish that
the wayfaring Spaniard eats his onion with his
humble crust of bread as he sits by the refresh
ing spring ; bat It is because experience has long
proved that, like tbe cheese of the English labor
er, it helps to sustain his strength also, and adds,
beyond what its bulk wonld suggest, to the
amount of nourishingment wh:ch his simple
meal supplies."
