D. 14. r- Penna. College, Feb. 4, 1860. F.~.iJ r-J A Milers Question.—Door-bell rings. The Rev. Mr.— is introduced to the family room, w here throe children are busily engaged at play, snuggled in the eoener of the room—the mother gently engaged in sewing. She rises to meet the " minister," and salutes him, while he, with lofty, oold,repulsive dignity, says: "Good morning, Mrs. —; are you well to-day ?" And dig nifiedly takes a seat. After a moment's pause, he says, in the same unbending manner : " I trust, madam, that you have been well since I saw you last ?" " Thank you, sir--quito well." A brief pause. "I hope your family have been in health ?" "Well, I thank you —aside from the ordinary itieknees of the children." Another pause. "1 trust that you have found consolation and rejriieing'sinee my last visit," etc., etc. And thus passed away some ton or fif teen minutes—the children all the while having suspended their Ilav with a kind of truiescribable fcrtr, whist children can look, glancing wonderingly at the mother. Rising to depart, with the same unrelaxing dignity, the clergyman said : " I leave my blessing with you and your family, Mrs. —, and will give you good morning." Hardly had the door closed, when a little boy of four years ran towards his mother, and clinging tightly to her dress, raised his eyes inquiringly, and with the, simple earnestness of a child, said : "Mamma, mamma, was dat Lod ?" 60 42 I II tel 26 ameenting a " Deng."—A well-known blackiind-tan terrier, which lately resi ded at ifargate, and we named Prince, was accustomed to make his own pur chases of biscuit as often as he could obtain the gift of a half-penny for that purpose. On several occasions the baker whom he honored with bisects/oat thought to put him off by. giving him a burnt biscuit is exchange for hie half penny. The dog was very much ag grieved at thisi inequitable treatment, but at the time could find no !pporl uni ty of showing hid resentment. How ever, when he next received an elm°. synarj half-penny, he wended his way to thebaker's as usual with the coin between his teeth, and waited to be served. Ad soon as the baker proffered him a bite/tit, Prinee drew up his lip, so na to exhibit the half-penny, and then walked coolly out of the shop, transferring his custom to another mem ber of the same trade who lived on the opposite side of the road. Weighing the Ecidenee.—d corres pondent gives the following, which is worth telling, as it will be new to most of you, if not all. A gentleman missed two pounds of very fine butter, which he had kept for a special occasion, and charged the cook with having stolen it. She declared the kitten had eaten it, and that she had just caught her finish ing the last morsel. The gentleman immediately put the kitten in the scales, and found she weighed only a pound and a half. The cook, thus confound ed, confessed the theft. pi-The tea plant grows in the agri cultural garden at Washington. It is said that it makes a finer flavored dish of tea than that usually imported.

An old soaker whe lived in Weston, Missouri, took it into his head ono day, and very sensibly too, that it was about time for him to be considering his prob able future condition and forthwith re paired to the Rev. BL—, the respec ted pastor of the Baptist denomination of the town aforesaid, to obtain light. Ile was received with urbanity, and forthwith the following dialogue ensued: Old It's your doctrine, bons, that a feller, to be saved, must augur immershun, isn't it?' Mr. 8 2 --- 4 Yes, Mr. S., It is a fundamental doctrine of oar church, that a man to beggee ted, must re pent of his sins and immersed.'

Mr. Notwithstanding all this, if he will seriously repent, and solemnly promise to amend his future life, the church snit again receive him into its bosom, after being immersed.' Old S. (after a few moments of deep thought, proposes the following interro gatory)—' Well, boss, wouldn't it be a blasted good idea to keep such fellers in soak all the time?' Our infimeant did not say whether oki S------ joined the church or not, but we incline to the opinion that if he did, the chances were pretty good for his being kept in soak all the time. Paddy's Idea of Perdition Pat McCarty was " a broth of a boy," and altogether as "decent" a man and as handy with a spade as 'any of the whole five hundred who were at work upon the railroad, then and now in pro cess of building in thg northern part of Ohio. He was a great favorite with the overseer, on account of his faithful -nest and integrity of character—but he had one fault that sorely grieved his employer. Though aosoberas a sexton fur six days in the week, Pat could nev er resist the temptation of " pay day," and when Saturday Caine around never failed to get as "drunk as a lord."— Having tried every other reformatory expedient in vain, the everseerat lengtit bethought of the priest., who prevailed on Pat to take " the pledge," and sent him on his way rejoicing. But alas! the next pay-day was " too many" for poor Pat, who, staggering through the village at noon, met no lees a personage than the priest who had attempted to refortn him. " You're lost, Pat—entire ly lost," said his reverence, with a sigh of genuine sorrow. Pat was bewildered for a moment, but having stared about him until be bad fairly aseenained his local whoreabouta he exclaimed, triam phantly--" Lost!--is it lost I am ? lost, in broad day-light, half way be tween Jimmy Stacy's and the 000 rt house ?—away wid yer nonsense r Now up the Editor.—Whenever the paper is dull sad uninteresting, don't be mealy-mouthed in expressing your disapprobation.

DeatA /refit the Bite of a Dog —O n Wednesday morning of last week, a little boy about six years old, son of Mr. John Seltzer, of Womelsdorf, was playing with a small pet dog; the dog snapped at him and bit him in the two., causing a slight scratch. The boy went to echool, but just before noon, wasitaken very'sick, vomited consider ably, and on Thursday, by 4 o'clock, P. M., was a corpse. The bite of the dog, no doubt, introduced poison into the system, which produced great de pression in the nervous system, causing death.—Reading Gazette. Ought to Know.--Hinton R.

The Boller, for Spring Use. Ma. EDITOR :--As tho season la ap proaching when the roller should be brought into, service, permit me to call the attention of the relit of the Fainter and Gardener to i The time was, when, Ts farmerpossessed one plow and a heavy tooth harrow, he was equipped for cultivating the soil; but that time has passed away, and to p thorough agriculturist the rolinr is now almost as indispensable as the plow. The first use for the roller in the spring of the year, is to smooth down the inequalities of the mowing ground, and settle the earth around the grass roots which have been loosened by the frost/. All mowing ground should be rolled as early as the ground gets set tled, do that cattle can pane over with but sinking their feet into it. The oats ground should be rolled im mediately after the harrow or drilL It is quite an advantage to the crop, and greatly facilitates harvesting, parties larly if the oats should fall. Another and one of the moat impor tant aeon of this valuable Implement is to crush the clods after plowing the oats stubble, and I have always found it best to have the roller follow the plow pretty eloesly, as the °lode crush much more easily thee, than after they have been exposed to the sun. In preparing ground for -wheat, the roller should be used repeatedly, or ee long as any clods remain, and by all means lot the ground be rolled before the drill. No field is in complete order for drill-seeding without it. J. Chester, Dcl. Co. Large tams. The Country Gentleman justly re. marks: "The passion for more land is one which works incalculable injary to American sgricaltere. It crowds oat of farming many who would otherwise engage in it—ninny who, were small farms more readily attainable, woaid do good service in the culture of the soil, and in the elevation of the charac ter of our farming population. Let us be less covetous of surface, and not for get that we own the subsoil, and en deavor to make whet we have attain a greater productiveness; and let as ask for better mops, finer animals, more serviceable implements, rather than 'one field more.'" Same do Trim The mild days of this month will an swer for this purpose. Apple and pear trees are frequently infested with bark lies of several varieties. They are found not only upon the trunk and large limbs, but upon the twigs nicely Sired on around the bad, ready to take advantage of the Bret appearance of the tender leavea. After the foliage has started, it is &neat to remove them without destroying many of the had. and leaves. Now it can be don* with very little danger to the buds. In the case arming trees it is indispensable to their thrift that the bark should be cleared of these robbers. They should be followed up with brash and strong soapsuds, at least thrice a year, while there is one to be seen. Fine fruit can only be bad by close watching, and continued war upon insects.

The Democratic' Members of the House of Representatives have put forth the relieving paper, givingtheir reasons for voting against the Resolu tions relative to a revision of the Tariff, which passed the Rouse on the 19th ult. These reasons cohstitnte a full and ample justification of the amperes pursued by the minority. The Oppoei- Lieu majority not only refused to allow them to be printed in the offieial report of proceedings, but in violation of ear:lr tasy, justice and all precedent, decided that they should not be entered upon the Journal of the House. The exer cise of this arbitrary power, in the face of an established rule, which gives to every member of the Legislature the right to have the reasons for his vote placed mum its journals, is plainly stat ed b 7 the Harrisburg Patriot & Union, and as tbund in the fact that the Demo cootie pprrootteesstt contains some unpalata ble anddisagreeable truths. The Union says: ed The Tariff Resolutions, as orig. in introduced by Mr. Strong, were expressed in proper len_gtiage, and would have passed the House unani moludy; bet to compel the Democratic members to vote against them, an a mendment was appended which accused the President of insincerity In him re commendations of specifics deities, and made *direct attack upon the Democ racy. This was evidently done that the Republicans might appropriate to themselves the exclusive credit of hav ing passed Tariff resolutions, and not ith a real desire to induense the mo tion of Congress in favor eta rerrisioa of our revenue laws." DEMOCRATIC PROTEST. The undersigned, members at the Rouse of Rereseesatives of Pennsyl vania, deem it alike due to themselves and to the constituency which they rep resent, to enter • upon the Journal of this House their reasons for the votes given by them yesterday upon the final 171;of the "Met resolutions (No. irthe subjeet of the tariff." They yield to nolie in earnest devo tion to the true and abidinginterests of this post Cossinoewealth. Whatever tends to promote her prmress, to foster and protest her Iron, mining and other industrial interests, and th tie add to her wealth, will ever sontmend itself to, and reasires, the hearty support of the un dersigneSl. The resolndons se diey steed aft out the amendment of ales sendemon from Allegheny, (lfr. lliayard,) would have removed our willing rtes. We believe that the united voice of the Democracy of Pennsylvania when ex pressed, would be hoard in unmistaka ble tones in approval of the sentiments contained in said resolutions, here in serted, as follows : Rooked b tAe Smite and Boum of Rqffeoestatives of the Cesousunttualth of Pennsylvania is General Assenaily That oar Senators in Congress be in instrneted, and our Representatives re quested, to earneetly endeavor, by their votes and influence, to procure such a revision of the revenue laws as will re store the national credit, prevent ex cessive importation of foreign products, and secure to American labor and en ta an ample reward. Resolved, That the views of the Gov- . ernor of this Commonwealth, as ex pressed in his late annual message, in favor of placing the revenue laws upon such a basis as to afford to our great mining and manufacturing interests the largest incidental protection, and to sabetitnte specific for ad-valorem duties oa articles which from their nature are of equal or nearly equal value, or to change the foreign to a home valuation, are eminently sound and practical, and meet the approval of the Legisla ture. .Resoteed, That the Governor be re quested to forward to each of our Sena tors and members of Congress a copy of the foregoing resolutions. But wo were constrained to place our- selves upon the record against the reso lutions as amended, because that amend ment asserts that which is untrue in point of fact, and which the Journals of Congress abundantly testify to be unfounded. The history of the Democratic party we point to with pride. The history is that of the country. Whatever of prosperity, of power, of wealth, she possesses has been produced by the dominancy of that party, on whose rolls we are proud to have our names inscribed as humble members, and there fore when, in the amendment of the member from Allegheny, it is asserted or allegod;that "experience proves that no protection can be expeoted from the National Democracy who have modifi ed or repealed thekenly measures which afibrded relief 5i11?4,2," duty do mande that we shall net be silent.— Hence, a/thon a minority et this House, we are that neither we, nor the party to which we belong, shall be held stopoasible for evils for which alone those who are arrayed against us must answer before the people. Agate, when it is attempted in °barge upon the distinguished on of Penasyl vania, who occupies the Presidential chair, that he is either faithless or in slalom Is attoehnisintio her interests, we inset also be round in earnestretesi The history el his Wog is but as exhibition et a eageleat denials lir lie adviesoestent.
