Among these a soil, in which the wntcr passes away, and vet a rather heavy soil, is the most essential to perfect wheat growth. There is little doubt but the crop of the Ea?t couid be increased by at least one fourth if this could have general attention. In England on the best farms this Las been found of so great importance, that tile drain ing has been resorted to in order .to put the land in firstclass wheat con dition; and at least one half of the best wheat land in the country has been treated in that way. There are very few lands in this country where it would pav to do tLis.

Some land will do tolerbly well just plowed up, and and seeded down at once; but it will often pay well to plough it twice, so as to pulverize every particle of earth. Again, some have found it to, be a great advantage to have the earth ploughed and rolled several weeks lx'fore sowing, so as to secure a mod erate degree of firmness in theturncd up soil.

The young wheat-plant has something to eat then as soon as it is born, which is no more than it has a right to expect, if we look for its well doing under our hands. In the time ot cowing there arc many little appeals to one's intelli gence to be made, which have an im portant bearing on superior crops. Whether the soil be rich or not, or the land early or not, will have to be a matter of thought in each special case, as well as the latitude or dis trict in wbicn tbe grower lives.

I have never "givea my mind to it' in a way to make me cer tain that I had cither exhausted the subject or discovered its important principles; but I have prrctically tes ted some methods and found them satisfactory, and these I should em ploy in my laundry if I had one, trusting to time, experience and ex perimental endeavor to enable me to work out a system. The first article of my creed, then, is cold water instead of hot; tbe sec ond, thc application of the principle if steam to cleansing as well as couk ing. All white garments should be put ia soak, in cold water, six hours atleast before washing, the seams and soiled places having been rubbed with "saving'' soap. They are then squeez ed out of this and put in plecty of tepid (not warm) water, in which they are well washed. Wrung out of this they are put into an ample tin boiler half filled with perfectly cold water, into which a small quau-j tity of good laundry soap has been cut. Care should be taken to lay them in thc inner side out; close the lid down tight and put them over a not very hot fire, so that they will come to a 6low boil. This will take sometime, but when they arri eat that point they should be taken out at once, put into fresh tepid water, and from that, by the wringer process, into a cold rinsing water, very slight ly tinctured with blue. This process, with a very moderate amount of hard labor and without the assistance of any modern ma chinery save the wringer, cleanses clothes perfectly and makes them beantitullj white. Thc steaming pro cess is, of course, much more perfect ly effected with a washing "steamer;" but the process as taught is expensive and wasteful, requiring large amounts of soap and fuel, which unfits it for regular use in a small family, though possibly advantageous for a laundry or where large quantities of washing has to be done.

The sport was continued for some time, when suddenly Miss Johnson's head was noticed to drop to one side, her muscles relaxed, her arms let go their hold and drop, and away the unfortunate girl was hurled through the air. The momentum of the swing carried the apparently lifeless form of thc girl up fully thirty -five feet from the ground, and lodged her between two branches at the point where thevjoin the trunk of a tree, which stood about thirty-eight feet from the tree to which the rope was attaCJCa. It required only a few nmutes de liberation for the gentlemen to realize the situation and determine what to do. It v.a3 fully twentv feet from the ground to the first limb above, and the trunk of the tree about three feet in diameter. They backed the wagon with its canvass directly un der the tree, so that in case she would drop her fall would be partially bro ken. The swing was hurriedly taken down, and ia an instant one end o the rope was thrown over the limb of the other tree and secured below By tins means two gentlemen of the party hurriedly went up the rope and i:i a few minutes were at the side cf the unfortunate girl. She wasjusfreturning to conscious ncss, uuu me urce oi nor lull Lad so securely wedged her Wtv.eeu the trunk and the limbs as to require no little effort to extricate her. Miss Johnson at once realized her fearful situation. : She was pals and weak, mu Fiui naa luc good sense to o as thc gentlemen desired. Tho rope was pulled up, a slip knot was made and then passed around her body under the arms, and the other end passed around tbe limb, and in thi manner was lowered to thc ground in saletv. uith the exception of few severe bruises and scratches she sustained no injury. A Brtcbt Example of Tolerance. A correspondent of the Jorunal Dcs Dcbats sends to that Journal a very touching story from thc little town oi Lahr. The writer says: "A funeral which excited profound in terest toot place ia our industrious little town yesterday. It was that of an old cnupplc who had lived most affectionately together for half a cen tury. The wife died the day before yesterday, and then the husband, in an agony of grief threw himself on tbe bed to press his lips once more on hers. The shock was to great for him, and he was taken up lifeless. She was a fe.-vent Catholic, he a zqlous Protestant But thc differ ence cf faith does not seem to have produced the slightest disorder ia this exemplary household. At the funeral the Roman Catholic priest and the Protestant pastor walked side by Eide, and the presence of nearly the whole population proved their respect to the departed and their satisfaction at this indication of tolerance." lorn Las Aa rnplerian Visitor. Trie Detroit Free Press tells how wild looking man' with his hat in ear, s he right iii thh town right down here not fo.-tv rods away, is iuio uuc boss u-'A-n, whar they jump from be hind the door and grab a man's ear, or is it a big town, whar they strike from thc shoulder ? This is tie way I fight!" and he unbuttoned his iacket and danced around, shooting out with his right and then his left, and then "getting away" from a blow on the nasal. The Mayor was kept dodging to avoid eore eyes, and he hastily promised to have tbe police look into thc matter. 'Tcrlicel" shouted the man "who said perlice, what I want is for 'em to stand up square and come for me bo and so andso!" And he jumped this way and that, ducked his head, and kicked higher than the Mayor's nose. Then he squared off in front of the hatrack and knocked the hats right and left "Xo, sir, I hain't no chicken ! I want a square shake and no more I Let 'em climb on to me by the front door and they git3 it in this way and that way and so and under tbe chin- and on the top of the head and in tbe stomach !" Ilis kicks and blows drove the official into a corner to avoid accident, and tho man was promised that hereafter he should have a square show according to tbe latest rules of the P. It. "That's biz, that is!" he replied, getting ready to walk out, "and now 1 know this hain't a onc-hos3 town. Let 'em climb oa to me now let 'cm come in front and both sides, and all around, and if old Trenton don't flop her wings and crow then I'm a red doer under a meat wagon J" The Witchery of Manner. Almost every man can recall scores of cases within his knowledge where pleasing manners have made the fortune of lawyers, doctors, di vines merchants, and, in short, men in every walk of life. Raleigb flung down his lace coat in the mud for Elizabeth to walk on, and got for his reward a proud queen's favor. The politician who has this advantage easily distances all the rival candi dates, for every votor he speaks with becomes instantly bis friend. The very tone3 in which ho asks for a pinch of snuff are often more potent than the logiccf a Webster or a Clay. Polished manners have often made scoundrels successful, while the best of men, by their hardness and cold ness, have done themselves incalcula ble injury the shell being 60 rough that the world could not believe that there was a precious kernel within it. Civility is to a man what beauty is to a woman. It is a real ornament the most beautiful dress that a man or a woman can A'ear and worth more a3 a means of winning favor than thc finest clothes and jewels ever worn, lhe grullest man loves to be appreciated; and it is oftener the sweet smile of a woman, which we think intended for us alone, than a pair of J nne-like eyes, or "lips that seem on roses red," that bewitches our heart; and lays us low at the leet of her whom we afterward mar ry. Ilec Keeping. Bee-keeping is honest, honorable and easy. It needs but little capital and no unusual skill; neither great strength nor profound learning. It does not depend on political favor or the smiles of the rich. Knral, but not rude; royal, but not rigorous it asks but the smiles of nature and a quiet spot. It makes by saving, and does not injure by taking. It requires many operatives, but they board and clothe themselves, requiring of their employer only a cheap suitable place to stow the product of their skill and industry, ready for his or her use, or for market It can be done almost anywhere, and more money from the same amount of capital and labor, than in any other business. Many a farmer loses more than he makes by not keeping bees or not keeping them properly. He and his family grow prematurely old with plowing and reaping, mowing and hoeing, and all the drudging incident to tilling, while every flower i3 say ing to them, "send us bees and we'll relieve you from wasting toil." These sable servants challenge com petition in converting the sweet treas ures of nature to their master's use. Spare them life it is short at best Let iuventive genius protect and aid them they will appreciate favors. We cannot afford to do without bees, much less to keep them in a profitless manner. The profits of bee-keeping may, no dotbt, be doubled; and who shall provide a feasible way to do it, will deserve a niche with him who makes two blades of grass grow where one grew before. ' Concealed Weapon- "There is no knowing what may turn up," especially in a horse-hair sofa. In a small attic, says a Vien na journal, lived the family of a tai lor who had died 6ome weeks since in thc greatest poverty and misery. Tbe widow could not earn enough to support herself and her c hildren, and was obliged to sell her furniture bit by bit to supply their needs. In her garret stood an old sofa which had been given to her at her marriage by a relation long since dead. At length even mis valued heirloom had to po to tne brokers, i wo porters accor dingly attempted to remove the sofa, but were unable to do so. The bro ker, who, naturally fearing that his bargain was stuued with stones in stead of horse-hair, insisted on imme diate investigation. To the surprise of all persons, the removal of a thick coating of the latter material brought out about forty muskets, of the ex istence of which tbe owner of the sofa had no idea. Each musket was wrapped in a poster contaicing an invitation to join in the students' le gion, and bearing date "October 14, 1S48." An animated controversy is now in progress between the broker and the tailors widow regarding the ownership of tbe property so unex pectedly discovered.

If "nothing wore can be done, take alonff sonio corn iceab and put a quart into a pail of water and stir it up while the horse ; is drinking. It will greatly refresh and strengthen him. Many horse s suffer form dys pepsia; and one great ;ansc of ft is ir regularity in feeding and giving too much grain when the horse is fa tigued. When a horse has been ex posed to a storm and conies home in an exhausted condition give him a warm bran-mash. Tut in two or three quart3 of boiling water, and stir it up; then add hot water suffi cient to cool it to the temperature of new milk, and give it to tho horse. Blanket the horse. Colic will be avoided by this means. We think many farmers err in not feeding their stock more grain. It would bo better to work harder at least more consistent ly, and feed higher. Of one thing we are very sure not one farmer in ten grooms his horses sufficiently. After a hard day's work he should not be left until" be has been rubbed clean, dry-bedded, and all his wants attended to. Birds. All the creat agriculturists of Vienna have come to the conclusion not only that birds arc a necessity to agricultural prosperity, but that inter national laws must be established, so that the wanton destruction ofmigra tory useful birds be prohibited. Take for instance the lark, a very useful bird, which returns among the earli est to Germany in the springtime, and is a very "industrious iu.ect-rie-vourer. But it is a very mouthy bird, and the gourmands of Germany pay a good price for them by tho doz en. So on the planis of of Leipsic they are slaughtered ever day by the half million and if they escape de struction there they meet it again in a more fatal form when they reach Italy and tbe entire Mediterranean coast, for the Italians inflict au in credible slaughter upon the migrato ry birds. And between the two the German agriculturist's crop3 suffer from he raids of the caterpillars, larvie grubs and what not, but be complains, ?n vain, since there are no international laws. - How a Virginia 1'reaeher I'ct it. , A correspondent of tho Richmond Inquirer tells the following story re specting a preacher of strong com mon sense, but very rough hewn theology, who was widly known and much liked and respected in South side Virginia many years ago.
