Ahecoote or Mr- JErrEasoic. Mr. Jeffer
cra's great height and slender figure exposed
. him to much ridicule from his opponents ; his
' sobriquet with them was "Long Tom and
'. when his famous project of a Xavy was adopt
' ed by Congress, and the attempt made to put
-it into practice, the cannon, disproportionably
large, with which each of the ill-constructed
Craft was burdened, obtained, in contempt,
the name of a "Long Tom." Nothing could
present a more singular contrast than the fig
ures of Mr. Jefferson and Gen. Knox; the one
Tery short, and as thics as he was long the
other, lank and lean, and unusually tall. They
happened to meet one morning on the steps at
Gen. "Washington's lodgings, in Philadelphia.
The two gentlemen approached from opposite
directions, and arriving at the same moment, a
contest in ettiquette took place between them.
The General at tho head of the army, and full
of its chivalrous politeness could not think of
passing ia before the co-equal head of the de
partment of State : while the civil officer of
government was equally averso to take prece
dence of the military; and they stood for some
moments, each drawing back and waving the
other forward In the midst of this somewhat
entertaining scene, came up directly in fiont,
the notorious Judge Peters, the greatest wit of
his day. Perceiving how matters stood, and
casting a sly glance from one to the other, he
pushed boldly between them, exclaiming as
.he passed : "Pardon me, gentlemen, if in my
haste I dash through Thick and Thin."
A Story of the Times. About the time of
the late election in Massachusetts, and while
party spirit ran high, an energetic Know
Nothing cauvasser had, in a fiery.speech de
livered in 3fillville, in Worcester county,
worked the foreign population up to a point of
indignation past all their endurance. The day
following, as a crowd of Irishmen were collec
ted in the street, brooding over their fancied
injuries, a gentleman named Holden, noted
for his eccentricity, advanced among them,
and to their great delight commenced a vio
lent denunciation of the new party. Beneath
his magic influence'the alien audience became
in their estimation the pillars of our republic,
and as he warmed up in his subject, Know
Xothingism withered to a bare name under
his scorching touch, while cheer after cheer
burst from the excited throng, now rapidly in
creasing. "Who" asked be, "'build all our
railroads V f'Irishmen," was tho enthusias
tic reply. "Who dig our canals?" "Irish
men. " "Who build our State prisons and
almshouses?" "Irishmen," thundered a hun
dred voices. "Who fill them?" Waiting
in Y.iin for a reply, their whilom champion,
clenching his fists, shouted, "Irishmen, you
devils, Irishmen !'
Scese ix a. School Eoom. A new pupil en
tered, of whom the pedagogue inquired
"Can you read and sell?"
"Yes," said the urchin, "I can read in the
primer, and spell 'tater and gravy .
Here the lad read and spelt in tho most rap
id manner.
"In Adam's fall, he sinned ail J ohn Rogers
burnt his steak tor nine small children, and
one at the breast t-a-t-e ta-ter and grave
r-y tater and gravy."
"You may take your seat. And if I hear
any noise from yon, I shall call you up and
give you a flogging." '
"Umpb," said our hero, shniginghis shoul
ders as he went to his seat, "I wouldn't come,
though, if you'd give me two."

somewhat indignant, exclaimed, 'Like men,
of course.' 'Then replied he, 'we are going
to get jolly drunk, for brutes never drink
more than they want.'
Jones stejped up to a gentleman who
was engaged in-conversation with about a

THE JUDGE'S MUSTAEJ) BATH. s
Two or three days ago, a young Iriend, nb
has recently been spending some time in Geor
gia, related to us an anecdote which shows
how thoroughly scared the people of Georgia
were during the prevalence of the yellow fever
in Savannah.
It seems that Judge B g, of the Su
preme Court of the State, was in the upper
country at the time, but within twenty hours'
run, by mail, of the terrible disease. Quite
suddenly, late one afternoon, he was seized
wita a head-ache, pain in his back, limbs, &c.
Ilaving heard that these were salutations Yel
low Jack extended to his victims on approach
ing them, the Judge, in great consternation,
applied to a friend who was "posted," for ad
vice. A hot mustard bath was urgently ad-vls-jd,
aad being prepared, the Judge was seen
laying himself in the irritating fluid. Pres
ently he felt better, and finding a cake of soap
in the vessel of water he began to apply it
quite ireely upon his person. .
After quite pleasant exercise in this way,
ho looked down lor the first time on his body
and limbs, and discovered that he was turn
ing black! Oh, horror! His friend was hur
riedly sent for, came and declared that the
symtonis were intensely expressive of yellow
fever.
"But," said the Judge, shivering the while,
"I feel no pain; I feel well."
"So much the worse; the absence ol pain is
a marked symptom!"
Good heavens !" ejaculated the judge, "what
shall I do?"
"The only hope is in the mustard. Hub
away," was all th advice his friend could
give.
And rub he did, with will. lie used the
soap to open every possible pore, and after
some minutes sent for a candle, (for the twi
I ght was fading,) to ascertain his4' exact cuti
cular condition. On examination, he was as
Hack as a crow, and the soap, which a careless
servant had dropped into the tub, was discov
ered to be somebody's "Patent Paste Black
ing!" We need onlyaddhat the Judge survived.

PIlOriTS OJ POULTEY.
Few fanners expect to realize anything of
any amount from their poultry. liens are left
to take care of themselves, as a general thing,
while sheep and ether animals, from which
they cannot possibly realize so large a per cent
on the cost, occupy the whole of the breeders
time and attention. Xow let us suppose that a
mn owns 300 hens, and takes care of them os
he ought. He selects six acres of respectable
land; makes a good fence around it, and di
vides it in the middle. He . puts up a good
warm building, 12 feet by 40. In one of these
three acre yards he keeps his hens during the
summer ploughing it once in two or three
weeks for their benefit. The other yard be
pLmts in corn; the crop being sufficient to keep
his hens through tho winter. They la, on an
average, two hundred eggs each per annum, or
0,000 a year, in all, which worth, at a low
estimate $600. Tho hens thould be changed
from one yard to the other every year. Dot.

Hay and Cattle Scales. Why do so few
faimera have a scale to woigh domestic ani
mals, hay, straw, &c., that they may know the
value of improvement compared with cost ?
That they may know the quantity of hay and
other farm products sold, and not be obliged
to guess?- Doubtless many will answer, it is
because the scales cost so much. But we
think that if they will figure out the cost, and
the durability of the scale, with the expense,
loss of time and loss of knowledge, as to the re
sults of their own labors, &c, they will find it
to be a saving in the end, to say nothing of
the satisfaction which such a convenience and
appendage to a farm, would afford.
Ashes a Solvent roa Boxes. Bones are a
valuable manure," and should be regularly
thrown into a pile on every farm. They can,
as we havo often stated, be disolved and used.
If placed in a pile, and covered with wood
ashesthe ashes of fossil coal, leached ashes,
or common sand, and left exposed to the rain
and atmosphere, they will soon crumble into
powder. This manure :s worth about as much
as guano. -
Watery Potatoes. If your potatoes are
watery put into the pot in which they are to
be boiled a small lump of lime, this will ren
der them perfectly dry and mealy. This is an
easy and effectual way. of obviating a very
common evil. The lime should be fresh. For
a common sized family say of six persons
the piece of lime should not exceed the size
of an English walnut .
Ttme for Sowlxg Oats. The sooner this
crop can be got in after the frost is out of the
ground the better. It is futile to attempt any
particular time to sow oats, as Me time must
be determined by the locality. As a general
rule, it may be laid down that the proper time
to sow oats is when the frost is out of the
ground, and plowing can well be done.
rnoriTSOF Orchards. A distinguished ag
riculturist, who has 1000 apple trees, and in
tends to set out as many more, says that if ap
ples will sell at 23 cents per bushel, they are
his most profitable crop and if they will not
sell, they are tho cheapest food he can raise
for all kinds of animals. .
The Wheat Fly. It is asserted by those
who have tried it, that on bushel of unslackr
ed lime ground to a fine powder, like gypsum,
to the acre, sowed in the ipripg just after the
frost has disappeared, will effectually prevent
trie rarages of the fly .The experiment is
worth trying.- - r , ; '

GRAHAM'S MAGAZINE. NEW VOL
UME. 1854. In anuounciag his rcadincs t
receive orders for the New Voiuute, the editor docs
not know be has any very briliiaut idtas to hold
out ia largo capitals to dazzle people's eyes
'Graham" will be pretty much what it has been
the last volume, with some improvements which
experience suggests. No number will contain les
than 100 pages of matter, and tho readers of Ora-'
ham" may rely with great confidence upon this
the volume shall contain
OVER TWELVE HUNDRED PAGES !
Of the very best reading matter that capital ca
command from original sourccs.or taste select from
tho vast mass of available material.
The aim of the editor will be to produce a pub
lication which slioli be vrIu.iIiIo in Mnlio. i
choice in taste and style; and he flatters himself
trom the known talents of his contributors, that he
will be ablo to present as many good original ar
ticles ta hi re.idrrR ns nut nuhlii-ntinn nf tho .1.

He shall not, however, hesitate to publish, from
time to time, articles irom English authors, and
translations from the be3t German and French
writers, provided the pieces have never before ap
peared in print in this country. Essavs on impor
tant Political Subjects will likewise "be inserted,
and criticisms on the Literature of America and
the movements of tho Are. Thi T.nriow
.- . ... . . .-vaii-
ment, in which a large aud liberal spirit of crit
lcisni will always oc maintained, will be extended.
For the defence of American Diterature the editor
will Iu'.itk lip rn.iflv : tho mintin:iiiiA rf n
rect tone in the Magazine, he will, if possible, be
still more watchful.
EACH NCMRF.R WILL CONTAIN' AX EXGRAVIXO FROM A
FIXE STEEL PLATE IX APPITIOX TO THE CHOICE
DESIGNS AND ENGRAVINGS OF DF.VF.RCX,
who wiM supply illustrations for the text in the'
body of the book. Tho aim of the editor will rot
be so much to increase tho number of bis engrav
ings, as to secure for those ho publishes the ut
most finish tho artist can give them ; for comnjon.
wood-cuts arc so easily multiplied, that the most
indifferent publication may outrank in dreary dis
play the choicest periodical.
The Editor does not feel, that with his own rea
ders, bo can increase his claims to respect by in
sisting on any very great superior- of 'Graham"
over several similar publications, but thinks he
may safely confide in their friendship for the
Magazine, and in its past management for its pre
sent list, and such increase as naturally grows out
of an extended circulation in a country where
readers arc multiplying so rapidly.
Of the January number the first adition will be
30.000 copies, and the editor trusts his old friends
will be so prompt in renewing old clubs, and ex-
tending the list among new ones, that tho first
odition shall be but half os what the year will ul
timately establish, as tho permanent circulation of
'Graham."

States may now receive the Magazine, by mail,
