"Very well, tell hurl shall want her to morrow, ' thi n k s i n "woolil like to have her money for to-dai i i`ittork;' laid the girl.

I kept thinking over whit , the girl had said. until other suggestions came into my mind. "I wish I had sent and got a bill chan ged," said I. as the idea that Polly might, bereally in want of the money intruded itself. "It would have been very little trouble." This was the beginning of a new train of reflections, which did not make Me very happy. avoid a little trouble, I had sent the poor *damn away. after a hard day's labor, without Set money.— That site stood in need of it was evident from the fact that she asked for it. "How very thoughtless in mei!' said as I dwelt longer and longer on the subject "What's the matter ?" inquired my hus band. seeing me look seriouL "Nothing to be very, much troubled at," I replied. "Yet. you are treated." - 7 - ..1 am; and cannot help it. Yon will perhaps, smile at me, but Small cans el sometimes produce much 'pain: Old Polly has been at work all day, srcubbing and cleaning.. When night came she ask ed for her wages. and I, instead of taking the trouble to get the money, for her. sent her word that I had'nt the change. There was nothing less than a three dollar bill in my purse. I didn't reflect that a poor old woman who has to go out daily work must need her money as soon as it is earn ed. I'm very sorry:" My husband did not reply for some Aims. My words seem to' MO'made cob siderahle impression im his mind. "Do you know where Polly lives 1" he enquired at length. "No; but I will ask the girl." And immediately ringing the bell, I made in quiries as to where Polly lived ; but no one in the house knew. "It can't be helped now," said my husband in a tone of regret. "But I would be more thoughtful in future. The poor always have need of their money.— Their daily labor rarely does more than supply their daily wants. I can never forget a circumstance that ocdured when I was a girl. My mother was left a widow when I was but nine years old—and she was poor. It was by the labor of their I hands that she obtained ehelter and food for herself and three little odes.

The agriculturist must at once observe that, by this process, he gets a broad, loose bed fur the potatoes to grow in, alse a double depth of soil; then you are certain of good dry potates. I would here observe that potatoc ground is the very best for producing a good crop of wheat; and I would advise farmers to grow a greater surplus of this most vsdu able root. If there is no market, store' them, and feed them to your borsrs, cattle and hogs: feed them in your stable throUgh the winter, give your stock good bedding, clean out your stables once a week, make as large a manure heap , as possible, and you will not be troubled with the po tato disease, nor that worse malady arising from always taking out of the meal tub and never returning any, you will thus come to the bottom.—Ohio .Cultivator.

SINGULAR PETRIVACTION. - AR article in Dimes Merchant's Magazine descrip tive of Detroit makes mention of a most remarkable fossil to be seen in that city.

'When a fashion had passed away, she put the articles representing it into a wardrobe made for the purpose.— It must be curious to see the various gra dations of dress which such a collection presents. She began with the reign of I.olfis XV., and front the hoops, powder •stul high-heeled shoes of those days, she has descended into the time of republican ism and its more simple forms of costume. liar wardrobes have become a perfect mu seum of fashion." LARGE LUMPS OP GOLD.—Sow aston ishingly large pieces of gold are reported to have been found at the Stockton mines. in California, within the last two weeks of January. A letter of January 31, to the New York Tribune, says : "Ono piece weighing twenty-three pounds was brought to Stockton : that an other piece of incredible size and weight was also reported to have been brought to Stockton on Friday—it was said to weigh ninety-eight pounds. 1 saw a moiler of persons on board the Stokcton boat whO had seen the lump weighing twenty-tire pounds. The gentleman who carries the express between Stockton and San Fran cisco, told me he saw and had in hi■ hands the piece weighing ninety-eight pounds. If this be true it is the largest piece of gold ever found, excepting one in the Ural Mountains, which weiged nearly one hundred pounds, troy." DEPOPULATION BY UNOLERA.—The Natchez I.'- , 43 Trader, of the 27th ultimo, announce 4l .he entire depopulation of the thriving village of Trinity, in Louisiana, about thirty miles distant from Natchez. It says : The awful scourge, the Asiatic cholera. descended upon the population with a fa tality almost unheard of. Ten or twelve physicians, resident there, or called in from the adjacent country. were scarcely able to save a patient who had been taken sick. Flight was the only safery for the well, and death only reigned in Trioity.-;-- Mr. Snyder, formerly a tesidt at of Nat chez, kept a boarding house there with twentv-five or thirty boarders, all of who n who did not run away, died. Mr. Sny der stayed and took care of them until the last one died, then descended to the mouth of Red River. and we are sorry to add that he too died on the steamer Cincinnati go ing to Natchez. -..---- JENNY LIND'S voice belongs .to .the brit• liant & rapacious, having at the same tittle simplicity.
