THE ACTOR'S CHILD. "Shade of Kemble !" ejaculated Ward, at that time manager for Jefferson and Mac kenzie, in Baltimore; "here it is past sev en o'clock, and ‘.crook'd back'd Richard's not in his dressing room!" "My dear sir!" said the most original of all men, the imperturbable Thomas W. Garner, "do not be precipitate. When J.he late Daniel. Reed—" / "An you love me, Hal," interupted the stage manager, "go to the dogs !" and then the poor manager chatted, as was his wont, with his hands clasped in agony, fronyone side of the Holliday street stage . to the other. • "Ring in first music, sir?" inquired the call boy, who scratched his head and seem ed to enjoy the despair of his manager. "Ring? You red-headed imp of Satan— you juvenile Caliban—get out ofiny sight, or I'll wring your neck off." Awaywenithe call boy and away went the manager. Ward searched every bar room in the vicinity of the theatre for • the great tragedian, but all in vain. At last a little boy came running to him al most breathless with fatigue, and told him that Mr. Booth was in a hayloft in Front Street. The manager found a crowd'of people gathered round the building rn ques tion, and he had difficulty in edging him self through the dense mass. Climbing up a rough ladder, he cautiously raised his head above the floor of the second story, and there saw the object of his search seat ed on a rafter, with a wreath of straw a bout his temples in imitation of a crown. "Booth !" said the manager imploringly, "for 'Heaven's sake, come down ! It's near ly eight o'clock, and the audience will pull the theatre to pieceS!" The tragedian fixed his dark eye on the intruder, and.raising his right arm majesti cally he thundered Ibrth— "'l am seated-on my throne! As proud a one as von distant motintain,' - Where the sun makes his last stand r " "Come, my dear fellow, let's go.; we'll have a glass,of brandy, and a supper, and all that, Come, please come," • Bdoth descended gracefully from his, pine, throne, and kissing the tipsof his fin gers, replied with a smile, "Lead on, my lord of Essex. To the Tower—to the Tower l'" After a little persuasion, Ward-led the tragedian 'to the theatre, got hint dressed and the play went on. Just as the second act was about to commence,' a messenger, covered with dusta.ushed behind the stage, and before he could be stopped, was in ear nest conversation with the tragedian. "What?" said Booth, as he pressed his long lingers on his broad white temples,•as though he tried to clutch the brain beneath -"Dead, say you'? Dead and buried! My poor little child—my loved, my beautiful one?" And then seeing the curtain rise he rushed on, commencing— "She has health to progress far as Clietsey, Though not to ben the sight of me," &c. Sz6. The beautiful scene between Ann and,Glos ter was never bettei played. The actor, "the-noblest .of them all" when he chose to be, pve the words of the bard with thrill ing eflect„; but there was a strange calm ness in his manner that told his mind was not upon the character. Still the multi tude) applauded until tl e old roof rang a gain, and those held! 1 the scene stood breathless with eager light. The third act came on, but Boot was nowhere to be found. i . It was - a bitter cold night, and the far per, as he drove his wagon to market, was startled from his reverie, saw a horseman wrapped in a large cloak, which as. it o pened, disclosed a glittering dress beneath, ride rapidly past him. It was Booth in his Richard costume! Madness had seized him, and regardless of everything, at the still hour of midnight, he ivadgoing to iNty a visit to his dead child. Drawing his flashing sword, and throwing his kwelled cap from his head, he lashed his horde's Bank with the bare weapon until the ani mal snorted with pain. The tall, dark trees on each side of him touched his heat ed brow; thinking they were men in pur suit, the mad actor cut at them as he flew rapidly by. At last, after, a gallant ride of two hours, the horseman came in sight of a country grave-yard; and as he saw the white tops of the monuments peering through the-dark foliage,like snowy crests upon the bosom of a black billow, he raised a shout . wild enough to have .scared the ghosts from their still graves. He dismounted, and away sped the riderless horse over hill and dale. It was the work of a moment to wrench the wooden door from the vault containing the body of his child. He seiz ed the tiny coffin in his arms, and with the , strong arth of a desperate man he.tore o pen the lid, and in a moment'more the cold blue lips of the dead child were,glued to the mad actor's The next morning some member of the tra_gedian!s family heard a wild strain of laughter that seemed to proceed from his sleeping room. The door was forced o pen, and Booth was .discovered lying on his bed, gibbering in idiotic madness and caressing the corps of his little one! • Pleasure and pain are dea t out to us, in. Measures and at seasons that we little dream . of, by a Power , whose wisdom we dare not question, and .if the latter is to. be received 'with resignation, Alie other surely should be welcomed with gladneek. "FEARLESS AND FREE." REVOLUTIONARY REMINIFICENCES.---it stirs one's blood, in these latter days, to re call the speeches and the records of the ac tions of those who lived in the days of the Revolution. When the news of the fall. of I Ticonderoga reached the capital of New Hamishire, John Langdon, who was speak er of the Provincial - Legislature, seeing the public credit exhau - sted, and his friends dis couraged, rose and said : "I have $3,000 hard money ; I twill pledge my plate for $3,000 more. I have seventy hogsheads of Tobago rum, which shall be sold for the most it will bring.— These are at the service of the State. If we succeed in defending our firesides and our homes, I may be remunerated. If we do not, the property will be of no value.— Our old friend Stark, who so nobly niain tained.the honor of our State at Bunkef Hill, may safely be entfusted with the con duct of the enterprise, and we will check the proceedings of Burgoyne." Those were the days of patriotism !-- The offer was accepted, the money paid, the plate hypothecated, and the rum con- Verted into cash. A corps of mountain eers was soon raised and placed under the command of Starke. When he came in .sight of the enemy at Bennington, he said: "Boys, there are the Red. Coats. We must beat them,-or this night Molly Starke will be a widow !" He did beat them.— The tide of war was turned—the firesides, and hearths of our fathers preserved ; but whether old John Langdon ever got back his plate, except in continental rags, we do not know. There are many who lost ev erything in the -service of their country, made advances and sacrificed estates, whose descendants are now poor. • A Goon ANECDOTE.—Wc never heard the anecdote of the old woman and her tur keys until yesterday. It is good. An old lady, resident of a neighboring place; kept a large family of turkeys, perhaps . / sixty. She r like a great many other, people, thought a great deal of her turkeys,. consequently valued them Very highly. Opposite her door. was a "West India. Goods .Store."— The man who kept it one day emptied his casks of cherries, intending tq replace with This old lady being economical, • thoughtit a great pity "to have all, these. cherrie.• wasted, and in order to have them would just drive over her tur 7 keys and let them eat them. In the course of the day the old lady thought she would look after them and see they were in. no mischief. She approached the yard, and to ! in one corner laid her turkeys in one huge pile, dead. Yes they were, "stone dead." What was to be done? - Surely the old matron could not lose all the feath ers ! She must pick them! She called her daughters and picked them, intending to have them buried in the morning. Mor ning.came and behold there were her tur keys stalking about the yard featherless e nough, (as may be supposed,) crying out "quit, quit;" feeling no doubt mortified that their drunken fit had been the means of lo sing their coats. Poor thingS, if they had said "quit" .before they had begun they would not have been , in this "bad fix." We would advise all young men who are in the habit of drinking; to leave -off be fore they get picked ; and to those who do not, let every young lady say "quit." 110 ! my dear," exclaimed - 1i newly married man - to his wife ; "what are you fumbling about your mouth there for?" "Just taking•out.my teeth, love."• "The deuce! well. you can't talk, what's the matter noW ?" ' «oh, that's only my palate dropped out, I'll soon fix that." "Thunder and blazes'-? Why—why, where's your hair ?" "On the table ; isn't it pretty ? I bought it the other day of a hair-dresser." • The man took to his heels, and has not been heard from since, though a man re : sembling him was seen not long afterwards inquiring the way to Texas.• COOL RASCALITY.--wThe deepest trick of a villain that we have recently met with, is recorded in one of the Philadelphia pa pers. A young gentleman or respectable appearance, accidentally, stumbled into a respectable china store in Chestnut street, Philadelphia, breaking one of the large l l t ( late glass windows, He walked into the .. ore and cooly inquired what damage he ad done, and was infgrmed that the plate glass cost $2O. He presented a hundred dollar bill and received his change, eighty dollars, and deliberately walked off The noto.proved to be a counterfeit. ~ , A POINT - OF ORDER ! -A debating soei 7 ety in a town "down East," one evening undertook to discuss the question "wheth er intemperance or slavery is productive of the most evil in the United States ? A worthy•deacon, contending against the for mer, proposed to show its effects on its victims in eternity• "Stop, slop," cried the chairman, "that's out of the United States." . . DIGNITY OF TitE PROFESSION.—Mr. Sar gent Davy; eminent in the last century, wets once upbraided with lowering the "dignity of the profession," by accepting silver ae fees , from a client. "I took silver," he said;'"liecause I could not get gold, but I took every rap, the'fellow had ; and if you call that lowering . the dignity of the vitae sion 7 On% toow what dignity " TIME TO GO. ADVERTISINO.—The New Orleans Del ta has quite a pithy paragraph on this sub ject. Advertising, says the editor, is to business, what the oil is to the night lamp. , kWithhold the necessary supply of oil, and the light goes out—advertise not libe rally—and who you are, and what's your business, is known only to a limited circle —your expenses otherwise continue, your (business falls Off; you break, and „your name, which was never seen to an ddver tisement in the newspapers, now figures in the list of bankrupts. This is true—all true. It is the teaching of the times, 4nd he who will not learn it, must never ex pect at this period of general activity and rivalry in business, to keep up with his ad vertising neighbors in the race for patro nage and prosperity." • Lo THE gook INDIAN.—The New, Or leans Picayune mentions an incident to an old Indian in that oily. The poor fellow was entirely blind, and having got pretty drunk, he wenn() the Circus, to "see what he could hear." In coming out he fell down the stairs, and cut himself very se verely with the pieces of a large bottle that he had under his. blanket. The bathing which attended the wounding did ,not do much good, and it is thought that. the pa•, tient will die of tetanus. TO PRESERVE FRUIT AND VEGETABLES. ;-A late journal says, that to preserve ap ples, turnips, potatoes, beets ; carrots, et cetera, from fall-to July, place them in a shallow hole in the earth, covered at the bottom with straw or cornstalks; cover thiswith.six inched of earth and place the fruit upon Let itremain uncovered un-; til cold weather arrives, and the ground and perhaps the fruit is thoroughly frozen then place straw over it, and a coating of earth over that twelve inches thick, -If frozen the fruit is not injured if thus thaw ed slotly in the spring.. This has been often and successfully tried.: "Doig'T Sar.L YOUR AS RES.—According to late discoveries in Agricultural Chemis-. try, Prof. Liebig says, that in taking the hay from the meadows, the principal cause of exhaustion to the soil, is the loss of pot ash contained in the hay! and that this maybe t•aa4ity'ro4 4 :oVodby-SOSW ink the nteati ows With a thin covering of wood "ashes: A very successful farmer says that he nev er suffered a bushel of ashes to be .sold froM his farm—that it was worth 50 cents a bushel to sow on grass or corn. INDIAN FuNtnAL.—The Indiani have peculiar customs which will not yield to civilization: An. Indian burial took place at Alexandria, Louisiana, a feW days ago. According to a custom founded upon the religious faith of the red man, all the world ly effects of the departed savage, including rifles, shot pouch, skins—even a mare and colt belonging to him—were deposited with his remains in the tomb, to be carried with him, according to the romantic faith of his ancestors, to the sunny hunting grounds and floral valleys prepared beyond the grave-by. the "Great Spirit," for the re ception of \ the good, and barren deserts and icy hills prbvided for the punishment of the depraved afi s d vicious. A .S.rtuct CONSTRUCTIONTST.-Mr. C. F. land, 'of Arkansas, is said to have made the follow. ing speech at the Memphis Convention : • Mr. President—Before the vote is taken I wish to make a speech which shall not be five minutes long. (Cheers, and cries of "go on !") When Gen. George Rogers Clarke was taken prisoner by the Indians, they made him pack the skillets and things of the whole party, and keep with 'em too. After three or four days he was so worn out with fiitigue that he could with difficul ty drag one foot before the other, so he thought he'd make 'em a speech—(cheers.) Throwing down the skillets, and mount ing a log, he stretched out his hands and said :—"Gentleman Injins ! (peals of laugh ter) I propose that every man carry .his own skillet ?" And so Mr. President, I propose that ev ery State carry her own skillet! TRUTH.--A parent may leave an estate to-his son, but how soon may it be mort gaged! • He may leave him money, but how:-soon may it be sqbandered. Better leave him a sound constitution, habits of industry, and an unblemished reputation, a „good education, and an inward abhorenee of vice, in any shape or form ; these can not be wrested from him, and are ,better than thousands of gold and ailVer.

AGRICULTURAL. THE FEEDING OF .CATTLE Mr. Ellsworth, in his annual report, re marks that the subject of the economical' feeding of cattle deserves due attention, It will be remembered that duripg the winter of 1842—'43, a great number of cattle•per ished for want of sufficient food. - Thin was doubtlessly owing to the too great de pendence placed upon sonMparticuhir kind of fodder, and the severity and length of the winter, which shut them up from,their' pastures. A more :carefiil 'economy of food, by using at the period of' falLand ear; ly winter, that food •which would Pnswer best to the warmth .of the animal", •might do much to prevent the recurrence of such a time - of distress as prevailed in some of the more_ northern, of the Western ,Staten.. last winter. - __Theiproportion nutritions substances fountfin the different kinds of fodder, and the amount needed'for the. sistance of the animal, should be 'ltuovitt. and thus .substitutes maybe resorted to in such. a manner as to a,voitt,the great•incon f venience of anunlooketi - for, ,period of cold weather. , . • .

TREATMENT OF Cows.,--The keeping of cows in such a mannfras to ma ke , them give the greateat quantity of milk, and with the greatespckar profif; is an essential point of economy. Give a cow a half bushel of turnips, carrots, or other, xoots per dayi. du ring the winter months, besides her hay; and if her summer food is such as ikshould be, she will give nearly double . the quantity of milk that she would afford if only kept during tbe winter in the usual manner.; ; and the milk will be richer and of better quality.' Cattle are well ktiown to thrive much better where the operation of curry' ing is - Performed thoroughly tMd regularly, Dr. Rush; in a leetUre upon the .i..?'4441100 of studying . the - diaeasei of domestic animals states that there' is, an ithplovement in the quality of the Milk, and "an increase, in its quantity, which , fs'obtained by . currying the cow. -Be assured ojthe truth Of the say, ing, that ' , one cow well milked is worth two badly milked." The first drawn milk contains only 5, the second 8, and the Fifth 17 per cent. of cream.
