Freedom of the Mind.
Free is Ihe eagle's wing, "
Cleaving the sun's warm ray
Free is the mountain spring.
As it rushes forth to day:
But freer far the mind
Priceless its liberty;
No hand muit dare to bind
God made it to be free!
You may chain the eagle's wing,
No more on the clouds to soar
You may seal the mountain spring,
That it leap to light no more:
Hut the mind let none dare chain
Better it cease to be!
Born not to serve, but reign
Cod made it to be free!
Free is the mountain breeze.
Floating from airy height
Ftce are the rufching seas.
And free heaven's golden light:
But freer than light or air,
O'er the ever-rolling sea,
Is the mind beyond compare
God made it to be free!
Then guard the gem divine,
Than gems of gold more rare,
Keep watch o'er the sacred shrine;
No foe must enter there:
Ob, let not error bind,
Nor passion reign o'er thee;
Keep the freedom of the mind
God made it to bo free!
The Times.
BY TOBY SIKE'S MACHINE
How oft I've thought, and mourned to think
Times aint as they was uster,
When people went to bed at dark,
And got up with the rooster.
Those days of old were glorious days,
For fashions didn't rule us,
And when the fellers sparked the gals,
We had no fear they'd fool us.
And in those plain old fashioned limes,
The boys worked for their daddies
The girls assisted their mama!',
And never put on paddies.
The boys tried then by work to loam.
And gain some useful knowledge.
While now, as soon as they were grown,
They must be sent to college.
And then, when you w ould sec the gals,
At work you'd sure to find 'eni
Tbeir dress was plain a linsey coat,
And aprons tied beihnd 'cm.
Dul now the gals have sadly changed
From what they were o f yore;
A bustlo now they stick behind.
They ne'er used them before.
Brick houses then were seldom built,
And log ones seldom painted;
The girl's they didn't dress so fine,
And lace up till they fainted.
And when the girls got married then,
They mariiod not for riches;
They loved their hubbunds as they should,
And never wore tht breeches.
The parents then no matches made,
The girls did their own chosiu';
And when they went to church at night,
They always put thick shoes on.
A cdrale then wbb never used
The women never asked it;
The baby, when it wished to sleep.
Was laid down in a basket.
npAn American vender of universal
medicine declares that if his proscription be
followed literally, a cure is certain: 'This
medicine is to be taken m-ternallv, ex-icv-
nally and c-ternally.
'You, James, now a3 it's 4th of July,
and you have been a good boy, take this
cent, and take all the chulren out and buy
them some sugar plums; but hark ye don't
make a beast ol yourself!
GO A western editor, in reply to a co
temporary who called him 'green,' says
A green article may be ripened, but a half

of shaving a Hoosier with a very dull

"Stop," said the Hoosier, "that wont

When Lady Wallace was iu company
with a large party, and the conversation
turned upon the time at which the can
tn law of Paphos forbids a female to tell
JieT-3e, she applied to David Hume who
had sat without speaking for some time,
with a "Pray, Mr. Justice Silence, when
I ini -wJied what is my age, what answer
fchall I givx?" "Say madam," replied
he, what I believe will be the truth, that
you are not yet conic to the years of discretion.
Work for September.
Selection of Seed Corn. This
month seed corn should be selected. It
can only be well done in the field, by gath
ering those ears with small butt-ends, the
second ripe, and taken from stalks which
have two or more well-filled ears to each.
In this way, the best varieties of corn in
cultivation have been obatined.
Threshing out Grain. Continue to
thresh your grain as fast as your business
or circumstances will allow; for the soon
er this is done, the greater the chances of
destroying the eggs of the 'weevil fly,
which deposites them in the grain in its
green and succulent state. 'If wheat be
threshed soon after harvest, and thrown
into bulk, it undergoes a heat, which des
troys the egg, and it sustains no injury;
but, if it remains long in the shock, or
stack, the weevil hatches, and makes its
way out of the grain.'
Fclmioating Graneries. If your
granary is invested with the' black weevil,'
clear it entirely of grain, place a pan of
powdered sulphur in a bed of sand, close
the windows, doors, and cracks, and set
the sulphur on fire. And the smoke will
either destroy or drive the weevils away.
Seeding Timothy. If you have not
already sown your Timothy, let it be done
as early as possible this month, at the rate
of twelve quarts of seed to the acre. Be
sure that the seed is sound and fresh; and,
as a protection to the infant plants, sow,
also, at the same time, a peck of buckwheat
to each acre of ground. Such meadows
as have began to fail, may be increased in
their yield of hay, by sowing on them a
peck of Timothy seed, with from five to
ten bushels of wood ashes, and an equal
quantity of lime per acre, afterwards har
rowing and rolling it in.
Kitchen Garden. Hoe and thin out
the turnip crops. About the 15th, sow
cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, and carrots,
to remain protected in the seed beds during
winter, for early transplanting in the
spring. Gather garden and flower seeds
as they ripen, if not done before, and care
fully put them away in a cool dry place,
secure from the depredation of vermin.
Frcit Garden and Orchard. Bud
ding of peach trees may be performed in
the early part of the month; also that of
other trees, so long as the bark will peel.
Peach, plum, apricot, and all northern trees
bearing stone fruits, may be pruned while
the sap is in downward motion. Straw
berries may now be planted in beds.
Flower Gardens and Pleasure
Grounds. Toward the close of this
month, beds may be prepared for planting
tulips, hyacinths, anemonies, and other
flower roots and shrubs that are to be re
moved the next. Trees and shrubs may
l be propagated by cuttings and layers.
! Pines, maples, and nut trees may now be
pruued. American Agriculturalist.
Education.
An education is a young man's capital;
for a well informed, intelligent .nind has
the best assurance ot luture competancy
and Happiness. A lather s best gilt to
his child, then, is a good education. If
you leac them wealthy, you may assure
their ruin; and at best you only leave
them that which at any moment may be
lost.
If you leave them with a cultivated
heart, affections trained to objects of love
and excellence, a mind vigorous and en
larged, finding happiness pure and eleva
ted in the pursuits of knowledge, vou ef.
feet an insurance on their after happiness
and usefulness. Unless vou bring up
the young mind in this way, you cannot
with any justice, claim for its possessor
independence. lour children must be
virtuous, or they will not desire it. They

A woman can say what she likes to you
without the risk of being knocked down
for it.
She can take a snooze after diuner while
her husband has gone to work.
brie can dress herself in neat and tidv
callicoes for a dollar, w hich her husband
has to earn and fork over.
She can go into the street without be
ing obliged to "treat" at every coffee
house.
She can paint her face if she is too pale
or flour it if too red.
She can stay at home in time of war.
and wed again if her husband is killed.
She can wear corsets if too thick, and
other "fixins" if too thin.
She can eat, drink and be mcrrv, with
out costing her a cent.

EF'What have you got there, Joe,'
'Why a ham.' 'That ain't a ham, its
nothing but a shoulder.' 'It's a ham, I tell
you, but not nnidtra ham.'
'Well, Alick, how's your brother Ike
getting along these hard times?' ,Oh, first
rate got a good start in the world mar

If you don't want to fall in love with a
girl don't commence flirting with her.
This courting for fun is a good deal like
boxing for fun. You put on the gloves in
perfect good humor, with the most friend
ly intention of exchanging only a few
blows; you find yourself insensibly warm
with the enthusiasm of the conflict; some
unlucky punch in the 'vesket' decides the
matter, and the whole affair ends in a
downright fight. If you don't want to be
shot, you must keep away from the breast
works.
'Hallo, steward,' exclaimed a fellow in
one of the steamboats after having retired
to his bed:
'Hallo, steward!'

A little boy hearing his father say that
'there is a time for all things,' climbed up
behind his mother s chair, and whispering
in her ear, asked when was the proper
time for hooking sugar out of the sugar
bowl.
CF A Roman woman's first virtue was
chastity, and decency was a point of hon
or. A man was considered worthv of
repulsion, who kissed his wife in presence
of his daughter. Not a divorce occurred
in Rome during the space of five hundred
and twenty years.
ISThere is a lady in Cincinnati named
Sally Porter, who amuses herself, when

such a proficient dodger, that he doesn't
mind it much.
