IT YOUB, TOOT IS PBETTY, SHOW IT.
If vour foot is pretty, show it,
No matter where nor when :
let all fair maidens know it,
- The foot takes all the men.
The face so fair and lovely,
May charm the gazer's eye.
Bat if the foot is homely,
He'll quickly pass ber by.
If your foot is pretty, show it,
When you trip along the street,
For it will catch the eager eyes
Of every man you meet.
': Don't toss your glossy ringlets,
Ifor pout your lips so sweet,
But gently lift your crinoline
And show jour handsome feet.
If your foot is pretty, show it,
At concert, ball and fair ;
For that small pedal index
Tells where your graces are.
The figure may deceive me,
All hooped and padded o'er,
But let my eye survey the foot,
I ask to seo no more. '
If your foot is pretty, show it,
If you want to catch the beaux ;
No longer hide that tell-tale charm
Beneath so many clothe9.
A graceful foot betrays a form
Of rare and faultless grace ;
Full, rounded limbs it doth reveal,
For fancy's eye to trace.
If your foot is pretty, show it,
Yes, show it when you tan ;
'Twill help your other lovely charms
To win some nice young man.
' The practiced eye may well distrust
A nicely padded breast,
But when it rests upon your foot,
It knows of all the rest.

Spkisg Wheat axd Fall Plowing. Wil
liam O. Honghtailing of Grand Rapids, writes
that he has two lots of spring wheat grown uil-
,i?flWrMit svstems of cultivation. The first
was a very fine lot, almost ready for the sickle
on the fourth of August, and which was so
-rank and luxuriant that the yield seemed equal
!. r ttiA hnst field of winter grain. The
field was ploughed deeply last lall, and only
cultivated the last spring previous to sowing
iht kpp.A. The seed was sown on the 20th of
April, and cultivated in with a light cultivator
The second lot was ploughed during the
spring immediately before sowing the seed, the
soil being equally as good as that of the first
Both were old sod. Yet the yield on the sec
ond lot, either of grain or straw, does not
B2em to be ha!f as good as that sown on the
land ploughed last fall. It is the opinion of
Mr. Honglitailing that spring wheat, grown u
pon fall-ploughed land as ho has tried, yields
a better and surer crop than winter wneat sown
? rwKnr W have no doubt at all of th
4 U v s- a
correctness of the practice of fall-ploughin
for spring crops, and especially lor s-prin
wheat and barley. The exposing to atmosphe
ric influences during the winter, mellows and
enriches the seed bed to such a degree that
whenever the grain is sown it has the elements
at hand ready for the assimilation which it
needs. The soil newly turned up has first to
be prepared or mellowed, or oxidized, as the
chemisls would term it, before it becomes fit
to yield nourishment ; and while this process
is going on, much precious time is lost, and
the growth of the plant is abbreviated in pro
portion ; its time for tilling cut short, and the
yield cannot be as large as when it has the
whole length of the season which nature seems
to have set apart as that to which the plant
BhaU make stems and leaves, previous to the
lormation of the seed vessels. Michigan Fur
trier. Trassplastisg Fnrrr Trees is the Fall.
Although spring is the usual season for trans
planting trees and shrubs, there are many
kinds that may be put dowa in the Fall, if the
work be thoroughly done, such as the apple,
peach, plum, common cherry, and many kinds
of plants, vines and bushes. But whether you
plant, spring or fall, we would strongly recom
mend that all trees, &c, be obtained from the
nurseries in the Fall. Those who do so have
an important advantage over those who wait
till spring. The fail purchaser get3 the first
choice, as to size and sorts. Again, farmers
have mere time to attend to such business in
the fall tsan in the spring. . You then have the
trees on hand, ready for planting as soon as
the ground is clear of frost, and can be work
ed. The trees should be taken from the nur
sery as soon as the foliage drops, and if there
should be any leaves remaining on at the time
of taking up, strip them off. Get your tiees
home as soon as possible, and see that the roots
are not frozen before they are heeled in for the
winter, which is done this way : Dig a trench,
in a moderately dry place, where surface wa
ter will not stand, about two feet deep, with
one side a good deal slanting. Upon the
sloping sine lay the trees, with their roots
three 05 four inches from the other side ; then
pack the roots carefully with fine, top soil, and
tread it down. Thus treated, trees will come
out in the spring in as good, if not better or
dcr than if left standing througa the winter.
It will be still better if the tops are covered
with boards to keep tne snn on. btraw or
coarse manure would be better, but for its af
fording a harbor for mice. A". TV. Farmer,
A rustic poet sends to an exchange the fol
lowing poem on a "Squirl," remarking that
ha is aware that the last line is a little too
long,
which he savs is not his fault :
"The squirl am a nice bird,
And has a bushy tail,
lie sometimes sits opon a lim,
And sometimes on a rail,
And
gethers nuts in tho Summer so that bis
Winter stock won't fail.
- A Fool, a barber, and a bald-headed man
travelled together. Losing their way, they
were forced to sleep in the open air, and to a
vert danger, to keep watch by turns. Tho lot
fell on the barber, who for amusement, shaved
the fools head while be slept. Lie then woke
him,and the fool raising his hand to scratch it,
- said : "Here's a pretty mistake ; rascal! you've
waked the bald-headed man instead of me."
Sheridan having threatened his son Tom to
cot him off with a shilling, received this retort:
"Where will you get the shilling ?"
"Oh, yes, Joe, my father is an old mariner,
regular salt." "Why, I never knew that.
What service was he in?" "The whaling
service. He goes cruising around all night,
and in the morning, when he comes home, he
goes a whaling the whole family, from the
old oman down, and boxes the compais a
round tho hired girl's ears."
A clergyman, who was consoling a young
widow on the death of her husband, spoke in
a very serious tone remarking that he . wis
"one of the few. Such a jewel of a christian
you cannot find his eqnal, you well know."
To which the sobbing fa;r one replied, with
an almost broken heart : m bet I will !"

The other day, a Jew was quizzing an I

tartly remarked : "Yes, dom ycr sowl, it it

Two Irishmen were in prison : one for stea
ling a cow, and the other for stealing a watch.
"Hallo, Mike ! and what o'clock is it ?" said
the cowstealer to the other. "And sure, Pat,

"you must occupy my place while I am ab

John, "but I'd rather sleep with the boys."

THE SEW YORK TKIBl iMi, 1857-S.
The Tribune wat first issued as a Daily on
the 10th of April, IMI. " Its Weekly edition was
commenced in September of Ihe same y jar ; Ha,
Semi-Weekly in May, 143. : it was me nrstuaiiy
in America to issue a double or eight-page iheet at
a low price, and it has kept at least even with tb
foremost ot its rivals ia mo iij
Newspaper enterprise! which the great extension
of Railroads, and the establishment oi tne iej- -
graph svstem have crowded into tnese jbsi sixteen
eventful years. N larger journal is afforded at
so low a price in any quarter of the world ; none
in America, no matter at what price issued -payg
an equal amount, weekly or monthly, for inteilcc-
ual labor. It emplova corrcsponaenia reguiariy
in the leading capitals of Europe, aid at the most
important points on this continent, with a liberal
staff of writers and reporters at home, regarding
full, earl v and accurate information as the first ob
ject of a Newspaper, and the timely and thorough
elucidation tuereoi as me cnici eni vi ii.mr
rials. In that spirit, "The Tribune" has been and
will bo conducted, extending and perfecting it
correspondence so fast as the increase of its pa
tronage will justiiy the expense. Mioul-l tne cur
rent attempt to connect the Old with the NewWorld
by the magnetic wire prove successful. we so an ve
ry soon, at a heavy cost to ourselves ani, we trust,
a corresponding advantage to our readers publish
each morning asynopsisof the prcceeding day'
occurrences throughout Europe, Northern Africa
and Western Asia, with regular reports ot toe mar
kets, the monetary aspects and harvest prospect
of hither Europe. With a good atlas beside him
and his daily paper on his fireside table, the A-
merican farmer or artisan witnm a aay s riue oi
the city may then study each evening the doing
of the civilized world throughout the day preced
ing: and it seems hardly possible that any who
can read, but especially one who has children to
educate, will longer ilci.y b ins sell tne pleasure ami
profit of a daily journal. The same is true mea
surably of those who live further inland : though,
where uiail3 are infrequent, a Semi-Weekly, or e
ven a Weekly, may seem sufficient.
The Tribune deals with questions ot l'oluical
Economy, Public Policy, Ethics. Material I'rogrcw
and whatever may affuct tho Intellectual. Moral,
Social and Phvsical well be.ng of mankind, dog
matic Theology alone excepted. Its leading idea
is the honoring of honest useful viorK in wnatever
sphere or capacity, and the consequent elevation
of the -Laboring class in knowieuge, virtue una
general esteem. It is necessarily hostile to Slave
ry under all its aspects, to Intemperance in what
ever form or degree with its accessories, to War
save in the defense of Country and Liberty agains
actual invasion, and to every lorm of tj ambling.
Desiring to see Production extended and encour
aged, white wild Speculation and useless Trafiio
are curtailed, it lavors tne policy oi sustaining ana
diversifying Home Industry by a discriminating
Tariff "a policy which tends to increase the price
of Grain to the farmer while diminishing that of
Bread to the artisan, by reducing the distance a-
cross which their re?pectivc products are exchang
ed and. of course, reducing the cost ol their trans
far. Regarding Fillibusterisni in all its phases,
and every form and device of National covetous
ncss, with unqualified abhorrence as the bane of
Republics and in their triumph the grave of Equal
Human Rights, we seek by every means to woo
and win the attention of our countrymen from pro
jects of aggrandizement" abroad to enterprises of
developeuierit and ucncncence at uoroc. loreinosi
among which we rank a Railroad through th
heart of our territory to connect the waters of the
Atlantic with those of the Pacific. Believing that
the goods of this life are not yet fairly distributed,
ond that no one ready to work should ever famish,
in unwilling idleness, it lends an open ear to eve
ry suggestion of Social improvement which docs
not countervail the dictates of -eternal Morality
nor war upon that natural right of every one to
whatsoever he has fairly produced or honestly ac
quired, whoe denial must sink mankind into the
chaos and night of barbarism and universal squal
or. With a profound consciousness that idlers,
drunkards. Iibcrtir.es and profligates can never bo
other (in the main) than needy and wretched, it
bears aloft the great truth that Prevention is bet
ter than Punishment that thechild trained up in
the way he should go, will rarely in after yiun
desert that way for the thorny paths of Vice and
Crime that a true Education Religious, Moral
and Indusirial as well as Intellectual is the most
effective temporal antidote to the errors and woes
of our race. Rcognizing in the most degraded
specimen of Humanity a divine spark which should
be reverently cherished, not ruthlessly trodden
out. wc have charity for all forms of evil but there
which serk personal advantage through the de
basement of our fellow-beings. The champion of
no class or caste, the devotee of no sect, we would
fain be the interpreter to each other of men's bet
ter impulses and aspirations, the harbinger cf
general concord between Labor and Capital, and
among those whom circumstances or misapprehen
sions haAe thrown into unnatural antagonism. A
coteniporary once observed that he never knew a
hard, grasping, niggardly employer who did not
hate 'The Tribune,' nor a generous, large-souled,
kindly one, willing to live and let live, who did
not like it. We ask no higher praise, no warmer
attestation
The circulation of The Tribune is at this time
as follows : D.iily, 32.000 copies; Weekly. 176,S0i)
copies; eini- ecKly. 10.000 copies; California
and turoponn, S.OO'l copies; Total. 230.S00 copies.
That of the Scmi-Wcckly and Weekly we believe
to be execeded by no other newspaper published
m the world; tuat ot the Daily falls behind that
of some of our cotemporaries. Had our hostility
to Human Slavery and the Liquor Traffic beeu
more guarded and politic, our Daily issues would
now be some thousands heavier aud our Advertis
ing far more lucrative ; but of o?ir patronage gen
erally we have no reason, no wish, to complain.
Of late, a concerted effort has been made to di
minish our rural circulation through the influence
of the Postmasters, some of whom embark in it
eagerly, others under political restraint, while a
large number, we arc happy, for the sake Human
Nature, to state, refuse to be dragooned iuto it at
all. Still, we have been made to feci the heavy
hand of Power, and have doubtless lost thousands
of subscribers inconsequence. Pretexts to which
no individual in his private capacity would have
stooped have been relied on to justify the stoppage
of our papers within reach of their subscribers and
rightful owners, and their retention in the Fost
Omce till theis value.was destroyed. Postmasters
have been schooled by rival journals several cf
them living on their self-proclaimed ability to
serve as an antidote to The Tribune as to their
political duty to promote at our expense the dis
semmination of gazettes of adverse politics. Wo
shall outlive this warfare, but wc do not affect in-
uiEcrcnce to it. Jn the open field of discussion,
we fear nothing; but in the tens of thousands of
rural neighborhoods where the Posmastcr can in
duce many of his quiet neighbors to take the jour
nal he recommeuds.we have already lost some pa
trons, and expect to loe more as our subscriptions
for this year cxpiro. We appeal, therefore, to the
hearty, faithful, fearless advocates of Free Labor
and Free Soil throughout the land to take care
that this official warfare on our circulation be not
prosecuted without counteraction. Wo employ no
travelling agents, for wo will not consent to have
the public hnrrassed with the solicitations of stran
gers in our behalf. We strike the name of each
subscriber to our Weekly and Semi-Weekly from
our books as soon as his term has expired, "for we
will not haunt our patrons with duns for arrears
which they may say they never intended to incur,
for papers which perhaps they never read ;""wo re
ly for the renewal of our subscriptions solely on
the volunteered efforts of thoss who. liking our pa
per, believe its influence salutary and worthy t
be extended ; and thus far our reliance has been,
justified, as wo trust it may continue to be.
