"I think I can get along with them," said the new school mistress with an amused smile at the misfor tune of her predecessor. 'T suppose ley will hardly drop me iuto the -reek." Mrs. Ilaughton basiled out of the room to attend to the dinsuj, leaving Miss Mary alone. Laying bcr bat aside, she took a book from the table and seated her r!fat the window. She made a pretty picture, at least Harry Ilaugbton thought so, lookin door. She was a small, delicately formed girl. Her bead was proudly set on her graceful shoulders, her mouth exquisitely cut, and her hazel ees shone with a brilliant light, nsifhome. .jjs3 .Mary sa"t at the de.-k to warn the observer from gazing too often at the sad, sweet smile that lurked on the lips. A profusion of light brown hair completed the picture. After dinner Mrs. Ilaughton show ed Mary to her room. "I hope you will find it pleasant; it is on the sun ny side of the bouse," said that lady, as she closed tbe door after her. Mary seated herself on tha side of the low bed and looked around the apartment which she was to call her own duriag the coming winter. Tbe floor was covered with a neat rag carpet, while the gaudy red of the paper that covered the walls was relieved here and there by a quaint otd engraving, lieneatu the mirror was a small picture of Evangaline, w hicb appeared to have a supernat ural attraction for ber. "I, too, am an Evangeline,' she said, while her eyes Clled with tears. Would to God that Paul, like Evan geline's lover, bad been taken a ay so that I kaew tot where, then like ber I might Lave hoped to rrcet him and Lad faith in bis vows, but to know that he Las proved unworthy of the love I gave him; that I should be deserted for that girl, above all others, is more than I can bear: but I shall yet live to spurn him, to show bim bow a girl can bate." The small bands were clenched and ti e lips set firmly together. The following morning, accompa nied by little lily Ilaughton, Mi.-s Mary st out for the school house, situate about a quarter of a mile from tbe village. The greater part of the roaJ lay in the woods along the bank of tbe creek. Tbe morning was bright and beautiful; the crctk with many a rhythmical ripple went merriiy by to mingle its waters with those of the Potomac, from whence they went ou to the sea.

As he proceeded he Lc came deeply interested in the subject ; bis voice dropped its accustomed tremor, and somewhat of the elo quence of his youth returned to Lini, as be closed with the folowing words : ".But there is another and still higher degree of charity.

'rbar.kGod! some of us have an old fashioned mother. Not a woman of the period, enameled and ainted, wiih her chignon, her curls and her bustle, whose jeweled bands have never felt the clasp of baby fingers; but a dear, old fashioned, sweet voic ed mother, with eyes iu which the lovedight shone and brown hair threaded with silver, lj"i:ig smooth upon her cheek. Those dear bauds worn with toil, gently guiding our tottering footsteps in childhood, and smoothing our pillows iu sitkuess, even reaching to us in yearning ten derness when the sweet spirit was baptized ia the pearly fpirit of the river. Blessed is tbe fpirit ot aa old fash ioned mother. It Qoatsupon us now like the beautiful perfume ( of some woodland blossoms. The music of other voices may be lost, but the en trancing memory of her's will echo in our souls forever. Other faces may fade away aud be forgotten, but her's will shine on uutil the light from heaven's portals shall glorify our own. When, in the fitful pauses of busy life, our ftct wandir back to the old homestead, and, crossing the well worn thresbhold, we s.aud once more in the low, quiet room, so hal lowed by her preseuee, Low tbe feel ings of childhood, innocence and de peudeneu come over us, and we kneel do n inlhe molten suhsbine, -breaming through the western wiu- dow, just where, long years ago, w e knelt by our mother's knee li.-ping.

In those localities, such a the neigh-iueck borhood of 'akcrk and Xymego. in Gueldcrland and Veirbcl. and Breda, in North Brabant, where the fatten-i ing of calves is largely and success fully carried on. the usual plan is to nut them directly after birth into j small pens or boxes, w hich are just large enough for them to stan 1 up or lie down in, and are kept dark. The calves get twice a day as much fresh drawn miik as they will consume, and for the first week each animal is fed exclusively on its own mother's milk. Such importance do the farmers attach to the calves consuming rioiu inghuttnilk, that they muzzle the creatures in order that '.hey may not chew and s1 allow any of the lifter. A calf fatteued iu the above way will weigh ia ten or twtlve weeks, fat and lean together, 1 50 to 200 pounds. I'cedinc Wheat to tlnrir. Feeding wheat to horses in some portions of the West, is by no means uncommon. A writer of the Prai rie Farmer, living ia St. Clair county, Illinois, says tbat six acres of wheat arc eowa there to oue cf corn, as the latter is a very uncommon crop, and that while w-oeat sells at $1 per bushel, corn brings 75 cents, thus, regarding tbe product of both, wheat is the cheaper article of food ; but what is rather surprising, it causis the horses to sweat more than corn. The way it is prepared for feeding, is to put it iu a barrel and add water so as to cover it six inches, and let it remain for thirty-six hours, by which time it becomes soft and sometimes even sprouts. It is generally fed with cut straw, in feeds commencing with two quarts of itie wheat to four quarts of the straw. At the begin ning, the animals do not take readily to it, but gradually grow to like it, and work upon it as well as upon earn. Oats arc very little used there. Krnlrs on the Iiiria. A meithanl does not sell dry goods without a yard-stick or measure of his own; a grocer does not allow his customer to weigh the sugar for him when he gets home and send the price according to his (tbe custom er's) owu weighing; be (the grocer) keeps his own scales. Why should the farmers'allow a pound of butter, :beese, poik or wool, straw, hay or grain t J go off the farm except il be paid for by his own weight. There is only one good reason for it that we know of, and tbat is, that it is rarely the case he has any scales with which to weigh bis own produce when be sells it. Il is r&tl.er absurd, too, and very poor farm economy. Occasionally a farmer will dig out from somewhere a set of old, rusty steelyards with which to weigh two or three pounds of pork for some poor day laborer; but, as a rule it is as rare as ripe cherries on trees in January, to find a farmer who Las a g;od set of scales foreiihertbe house, granary or bu n. Scales, or a pair of balances, iu the house are of the greatest coareincace for a housekeep er and cook, and by thoao who have tested their utility are regarded as essential. For weighing butter, cheese, grain, drcs-cd bog- , &c , a s t of farm scales are equally eoav.ejcat aud useful as a meaus, both of avoid ing and correcting mistakes, and of detecting aud exposing dishonesty. A farmer told us the past summer that bis scales had paid for ihcnselvcs Gvo times over in . one year by en abling hiu to detect the errors (uot to say tricks) f dealers w bo might or might not be honest ; at any rate they were careless. He had insisted upon the accuracy of his own weights aud had always wou iu auv controversy. "Why," said be, "1 would as soon do without a churn in making butter, as without scales of my own ia selling my produce." He was right Ihiral A'etc 1 wrier. Making 'nut Ha I'Mtfnl In Wnshoe. Upon a raneb ia Nevada, on the Carson river, there is a herd of twenty-six camels, all but two of wbieh were bred and raised in Nevada. Some years ago nine or ten camels were imported into tbat State, but of these only two lived to become aeclimated, and from this pair hue been raised twenty-four auimals.

The other is the kind that appear best at hotpe-tbs irir's that are useful and cheerful in the dining room, the sick ! room, and all the precincts of home. they differ widely in character.

Some one asks why it is tbat pota toes so soon run out. 1 here are two grand reasons. Tbero are but few potatoes in a hill that are fit for seed. Some are over grown, coarse, rank, and will not transmit the origi nal quality. Others arc undergrown and not fully developed seed. A potato of medium size, perfect in all its parts, with change of ground, will produce its like ad in finitum. One ether reason cutting potatoes be tvvcen stem and seed end continually is wrong. It requires the stem and seed end to make perfect seed. If cat, lengthwise. Single eyes will tun out any potato.
