If farnitTd do not make their call

The poor and iguorant may be just
as goo 1 as the rich and wise, because
moral worth is one thing and intellec
tual worth another; but it i fact
that those men ever have been and
ever will lie most respected who, with
equal morals, make the best use of
their heads. Lawycrsand merchauts
only succeed in the world by the most
diligent ttudy, and farmers can only
really succeed in like manner.
A man niav, in rare cases, be an
rvcellent farmer, and vet be unable
to read, but he is always a thinker.
II is neighbors read and he bears them
talk. They gather ideas from books
and papers aud apply tbem, and be
watches the results. In his own op
eration!, every good farmer watches
carefully to "discover the reasons for
success or the causes for failure.
- Vast good has resulted in our own
country from farmers' clubs, where
the experience of a neighborhood is
talked over. To be useful they must
be practical. It is not a lyceum for
rhetorical culture although confi
dence and ability in public speaking
are among the important incidental
results but the object should be to
compare facts and experience. If a
man has raised a good crop let him
tell his neighlwrs, in a little fi iendly
gatheriug, what kind of seed was
used, and when aud in what manner
planted. If a failure has occurred,
state fully the circumstances, and
your neighbors may tell you wherein
vou failed. Even if no valuable in
formation is directly elicited at a
meeting, hints are often given and.
trains of thought arc started that re
sult in greater good.
Farmers, depend upon it, you too
much neglect your business, ana do
not sufficientlv'honor it by the active
employment of your heads as well as
your Lands. You may rise early and
work late, but for the lack of fore
thought, cake many a false etop and
mifs jrood crops. Xo merchant can
succeed by such neglect as is com
mon among fanners. It is not that
farmers know less, but they are not as
alert and active to all improvement
and progress. If they would th'uk
more about their iiumess, success
would oftener crown their efforts and
greater honor redound to their occu
pation. The Waste aad Felly ef C'eld.Bara.
And what showing wpuld the cost
of winter feed of Lis animals make
on the account-book, if the farmer
keeps one? He would. Cud that a
large portion of Lis feed Lad become
dissipated in the frozen air of the
north winds; that a good portion of
Lay or corn Lad gone to melt ice or
snow and evaporate cold rain-water,
and that wbat was left after these
things Lad been done, Lad barely suf
ficed to keep life in Lisleasts. For
in this case, philosophy or scieucc, or
book-knowledge, call it what you will,
is thoroughly corroboratedtby prac
tice. If two beasts are fed alike, except
that one is kept well stabled, aud the
other out of doors exposed to the cold,
the one thus exposed will con
sume just double the amount that the
other will, and will be in worse con
dition beside. Every roan who keeps
a cow knows this to some extent,
though be may not know the eaet
figures. Here we give them they
re the result of a careful experiment
made by a trust-worthy feeder, viz:
Two lots of sheep (of five each) were
selected, of equal weights and condi
tions. One lot was kept out of doors
and unsheltered, the other kept in a
close pen. The lot under shelter ate
1,612 pounds of turnips against 836
pounds eaten by the other lot The
gain in weight was 23 pounds per
head in the first lot and 28 pounds per
Lead in the second. The profit can
lie figured out by any man who knows
what turnips and mutton are worth.
Had not the fecdiugbeen abuudant
some i the exposed sheep would
Lave died. And yet sheep will stand
more exposure than calves or heifers,
or even full grown cattle. Notwith
standing all this, every winter's day
one may see young calves humped
up and stiffened with cold, shaking
in the keen breeze, and their owners
knowing et the same time that a year's
growth is thus frozen out of them.
This comes of not figuring up profit
and loss. American Agrirvlhiriid

Keeplar Apples.
A correspondent of the VltioJ-'ar-tner
sums op the result of twenty
years' experience in keeping apples as
follows : .
"Keep them dry, cool aud entirely
shielded from the "external air." And
adds: "I commence gathering win
ter fruit about the first of October,
and finish, if possible, by the 20th of
the same month, leaving those kinds
least affected Ly early frost, and
which are most tenacious of the par
ent stem, till the last. Hard frosts'
are injurious to apples for late keep-!
ing.' After the dew is off and the
apples become dry in the morning. I
commence picking with the Laud,
and put them immediately and care
fully Suto well-made flour barrels,
made xpresply for the purpose they
should be -ii-Ught -head them up,
lay them down on their sides, and
when done gathering, wheel them to
an outhouse or open t,Lcd, where I
let them remain until severe weather
6ets in, when they are taken into the
cellar, and remain undisturbed till
wanted for the market . - - .
"Ittwould be better to take them
I
under shelter each day ns they are;
picked, to prevent the sun from shin
ing on the barrels; i t, as i sum
f re, the whole scen t or preserving
apples, is in keeping tbitn as dry and
cool as nossible without freezing.
Apples should be picket oulv in dry ,
weather. 1 nave a ee.:ar expressly

not do for the cellar to be warm en

must be well ventilated. I leave my
cellar windows open through the
winter, unless ia very severe weather
and when warm weather approaches.
I close them through the day and
open them at night When the air is
warmer on the outside than in the
cellar, I keep all closed tight and
vice vena. I uevcr repack or ojeii

that is fixed in the barrels becomes in
a great measure deprived of its de
composing properties.

It would be a curious and interest
ing subject of investigation, could we
truce bow far the desire for social
enjoyment is satisfied, and its antici
pation realized, by the various ap
pliances used to produce it It would
certainly appear that the pleasure
thus sought is not found in propor
tion to the degree of trouble, time
and expense lavir-hod upon the com
plicated efforts so frequently used to
attain it Most of those wLo Lave
frequented, for n few seasons, the
large assemblies and fashionable par
ties so much relied on, to produce
social intercourse, are ready to admit
that their results in enhancing social
happiness are very small. The an
ticipations have lceu bright and the
preparations elaborate, but in some
mysterious way, as the excitement
which they at first produce subsides,
insipidity seems to creep over them,
and weariness takes the place of the
gratification expected. So frequently
is this the case, and so commonly is
it admitted, that other and entirely
different pleas arc put for their con
tinuance. To preserve connections,
to extend business, to obtain influ
ence, or to futher matrimonial
schemes and establishments, are
often the real motives for giving and
attending crowded assemblies from
which the interest aud excitement
have all died out. Social organiza
tions, like many others, do not grow
with the growth of humanity, and
therefore, though at first meeting a
real want, and supplying a real need,
they at last become inoperative and
defeat their own ends ; wLile persons
clinging to the old forms, and yet
feeling their inutility for their original
purpose, try to make them conduc
ive to entirely different objects. The
primary ends of all social gatherings
are to ineease human sympathy and to
bring persons together in pleasura
ble intercourse, but where they prove
by their failure that they need re
organization, we are apt to forget
their spirit in their forms, and to in
crease their cumbrous appliances
with far different ends in view.
This disappointment as to social
enjoyment usually ensues in pro
portion to the artificiality of the meth
ods by which it is sought. Pleasure
of all kinds is somewhat shy of direct
pursuit, and the higher the nature of
the enjoyment, the less dependent it
is upon factitious accessories. There
are a few eternal necessities to per
fect social intercourse, but these are
so simple and easily obtained, that
people cannot believe that they are
suliicicnt.
Inceaioaa Cheating;.
During the old days of heavy pos
tage in England, no one Lad the
slightest scruples in cheating the rev
enue. Persons leaving home, wheth
er for inland or foreign travel, were
importuned by friends to carry letters
for them to other friends. An idea
prevailed that if the letters were car
ried "open" that is unsealed there
was no infraction of the law, and
that consequently no jenalty could
be exacted. This was a popular er
ror. The law, moreover, was evaded
in another way. A newspaper was
sent by post in an envelope: inside
the pajer a long epistle was often
written, in invisible ink, generally
milk. When this was dry the writ
ing could not be seen, liy holding
the paper to the fire the writing came
out in a sepia color, and the law was
broken. The post-office authorities
discovered this pretty trick, and par
tics were threatened with prosecutiou;
but as the receivers invariably protes
ted that they did not know who the
senders were, it was almost impossi
ble to obtain a conviction. The poor
er class of people upon whom the pos-'
tal tax pressed most heavily, soon dis
covered an ingenious way to evade it.
For instance a son or daughter in
town despatched a letter to parents
in the country who were too poor to
pay the postage, the parent declin
ed to take such letters which they had
a legal rijrht to do. Returned to the
(ieneral Post-office, the letter on be
ing opened was found to be a blank
sheet of paper. The fact is that par
ents and children had agreed to send
these blank sheets as indications that
all was well with the sender ; the re
ceiver got that much of news and had
nothing to pay for it The letter was
never taken unless a peculiar mark
was on the cover, which intimated
that something of importance was to
be it ad within.

There is a good deal more talk
atnongold bachelors this winter, about
not being able to get married, than
ever before.
There is an old bachelor at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, whose income
is $20,000 a year, and still he says ho
can't afford to get married. He's a
proud blooded fellow, and uow, he
save, as a single man, he can Lave
the best of horses, lest rooms, and
best box at the opera, "but," he con
tinued, "if I should get married, I
would have to scrimp myself or over
draw my income.
"How is that?" I asked.
"Well, now, come in the parlor end
I'll show you. You see ladies arc
extravagant nowadays. They dress
so much more than they do in Europe;
I mean, they don't wear rich dia
monds like the women of Florence
and Milan, but they wear such rich
dresses, laces, shawls and furs. Now,
I'm proud, and I would not want my
wife to be out-dressed, so I have to
keep out of the marriage business."

said, pointing to a fashionable cailer.

"Why, the clothes she has on cost

"I could'nt begin to live in a brown

Recollection of a TcrriLl Event.
A correspondent of the Lynchburg
Virginian in a late issue says:
"I am nn old man. Old age dwells
much on the past ; and amongst the
multitude of remembrances of my
boyhood aud youth none are more
vivid than those connected with the
burning of the Richmond theatre on
the night of the 20th of December,
1811. Two generations have since
come and gone, and perhaps what I
write may be of interest to some now
living :
"I was then a schoolboy in Rich
mond, very near twelve years old.
My parents residing in the country,
were in town for the winter. They
generally eschewed the theatre, but
that evening were persuaded by some
young friends to accompany them.
Others from our boarding house to
(he number of nine or ten, likewise
attended. The play was over, and
the afterpiece had just begun. The
actors paused aud seemed confused,
and at the same time fire fell on the
stage. An actor then came forward
and announced, 'Ladies and gentle
men, the theatre is on fire.' Instant
ly all was tumult and terror. Parties
separated, each crushing forward o
find means of esrnjie. " Of those who
went from our boarding house, no tw6
got out together. The pit of the
theatre was on a level tvith the street
and escape thence, through the only
outer door was' easy. "Many from
the lower gallery clambered down in
to the pit and saved themselves in
that way. A good stairway, begin
ning a few feet from the outer door,
led to the galleries. The house was
full; and in the frantic terror that
prevailed, niot of those in the first
gallery rushed towards the head of
the stair. Here the pressure was
fearful. Many were thrown down
and trampled to death. My parents
were forcibly separated. My mother
without the slightest effort cn her
part, was thrust upwardson the heads
and shoulders of those beginning to
descend the stairs; and so dense was
the mass, she was carried in a reclin
ing posture, to the bottom on her feet;
and then the outer door, just before
her afforded ready egress. Leaving
with an acquaintance a message for
her husband she set off alone for her
boarding house, up (Irace street.morc
than half a mile distant She lost
shoes, bonnet and cap ; and when I
reached the parlor she had arrived,
and with her hair streaming over her
shoulders,, was recounting some of the
terrible scenes of the fire. She was
the first to reach the house.
"The father of the writer escaped
in a different way. Just after his
wife bad been carried down stairs.the
staircase gave way, and then masses
of frantic beings went rolling over
each other to the floor. Seeing es
cape by the stairs cut off, the writer's
father sought other means of deliver
ance. While forced along he felt a
current of cool air, and looking to the
left he saw an open window a few
feet off. He was a stout heavy man,
and by a violent effort reached the
window and seated himself on the
sill. He then wrapped his great coat
around him, and. holding by the out
er edges of the sill as long as possible,
dropped safely to the ground.
"The writer's half sister, sixteen
years old, was in the Louse with her
maternal grandmother, with whom
the lived. The old lady wrs heavy
and helpless, and making little or no
effort to escape, was burned. Her
grand-daughter sprang to a window
and leaped out The fall shattered
her right ankle bone so badly that she
conld not move. After a tunc a gen
tleman from our boarding house rec
ognized her, and, with other help.
carried her to a house one square off.
l nerc she sunered agony tor manv
weeks before removal was possible,
and a year elapsed before she could
walk, and she was a cripple for life.
"lite writers in other was some
times relunctantly persuaded to de
scribe the horrors of that night Just
as she left the theatre, she observed a
large, heavy old man, lying on Lis
back, beneath a window, icrfeetlv
dead. She used to say the look of
agony in that ghastly face haunted
her for years.
"A touching incident well authen
ticated, was this: Lieutenant Gib
bon, United States Navy, was be
trothed to the most beautiful girl in
Ilichmond. The lieutenant and his
betrothed were in the theatre; but
when the alarm was given Ire was not
at her side. He hastened to her res
cue, and, fi'iding a lady, whom, from
her general appearance, he supposed
was the loved one, he struggled man
fully for her safety, and at length got
her without the building. Here, to
his dismay, the bright light revealed
the features of an unknown lady. He
instantly rushed back into the house,
now a mass of fire; but the adverse
throng delayed his progress so much
that just as he had found her whom
he sought, the roof fell in, and Iwth
