She gcct's Lying 111. Love! kiss me, kiss me on the lips, And kiss me on the cheek; And I would that I could speak, My heart, my heart so happy pants; But I feel lost and weak. This cup of pain so bitter is, And I feel dull with woe, And my tears are falling slow; But I touch your neck, your rosy neck; So lam blest, I know. Oh, Lore, we wedded years agone! A blessed bliss for me. Love! let me, let me see Your blest, soft eyes bum in to mine: Dear eyes, how kind they be! I touch your neck: my tears flow down, They soothe me while I speak; Oh, Love; I feel so weak! But, kiss me on the lips, And kiss me on the cheek, —■- — “Shure, which is the entrance out?” Asked an Irishman at a railway station the other day. .Boops, says “Inebrius,” surround the best things on earth—wine and women. “Boy,” said a facetious farmer to his son, “we had a pretty hard day’s work yesterday, now let’s have a game of chopping wood.” The great difference between the young and the old is the young have the world before them, while the old are behind the world. An Irish absentee is said to have sent this comforting message to his steward: “Tell the tenants that no threats to shoot you will terrify me. Wear your learning like your ■watch, in a private pocket, and don't pull it out to show that you have one, but if you are asked what o'clock it is, tyll it. On a young girl saying to Leigh Hunt, “I am very sad you see,” he replied,” Oh, no, you belong to the other Jewish sect—you are very/air I see!” A countryman who was charged with ten gallons of whiskey, though the publican had sent him only an eight-gallon keg, said he “didn’t mind the money overcharged so much as the strain on the keg.” A laborer while breaking stones on the roadside, having a shade over one eye as a guard, was thus accosted by a companion, “I say, Tummy, hast’ee lost an eye?” Why?” replied the other; “hast ’ee found one ?” As many as fifty thousand tons of soap used in silk manufacture were formerly allowed to pass off to waste in the Rhone. Most of this is now recovered by the aid of sulphuret of carbon, and is used again in manufacture.

A gentleman mentioned to * Archbishop Whately that lie had • been caught in the rain, and was ' wet throuh. “Are you really wet < through?’’ Said the archbishop. 1 “I wag never wet through in my ’ life, never further than my skin.” 1 During the late bathing season, ' a pompous individual walked up ' to the office of a seaside hotel, and 1 with considerable flourish, signed the book, and in a loud voice exclaimed, “I’m Lieutenant Gover- ' nor of .” “That does’t ! make any difference,” says the landlord, “you’ll be treated just as ' well as others.’’ In illustration of the perfect condition to which the working of the Atlantic cable has been brought, it is mentioned that recently, in the business of three entire days, during which messages were transmitted containing 24,440 letters (or 48,880 letters when doubled for repetition), the repetitions showed a mistake of only one letter, consisting in the substitution of Eattieson for Patteson. A lady in Nashville was making a visit to the penitentiary, and was permitted to look through the various wards. In one room she saw three women engaged in sewing, and turning to the keeper who was showing her about, said to him in an under tone: “Dear me, the most vicious looking women I ever saw in my life! What are they put here for!” “They are here, madam,” was the reply, “because I am here. Those ladies are my wife and daughters.”

Last May we sowed the tiny seed And covered deep in mother earth; The embryo burst its husky shield, And gave the tender leafleCbirth. And now comes in the autumn time, When flowers, buds, and shining leaves Have changed to piles of golden fruit, • And heavy laden harvest sheaves. - — » » Illi All, all around God's blessing distills upon cheerful labor, provident economy, and cultivated tastes. Every farmer who expects to prosper studies profoundly the subject of manures. Plants must have food. Bj’ common consent it is admitted that agriculture underlies every other pursuit of life, and the subject of fertilizers underlies agriculture. Good drop cakes are made thus. One and a half teacup sour milk, half a teacup cream, salt, one teaspoon of saleratus; stir quick with flour, and drop in a buttered dripping pan. Reclamied lands deteriorate, and soon relapse into their originwild state and become full of sour grasses, unless the ditches and drains are cleared out frequently. Now is the time to do this work. J. E. Cole of Steuben Co., New York, says he never failed to cure poll evil by first “washing the sore clean with warm soap suds, and then sprinkling on a teaspoonful of seleratus once a day until a cure is effected, which will be speedy.” Farms bordering on Lake Champlain are greatly injured by the grasshoppers. Pasture lands in some cases look as if a fire had swept over them,'destroying every green thing. They are not as large as in former years, but their numbers are countless.

Paper from corn husks is successfully made in Austria, and it is said to produce the finest issue and the strongest hardware paper as well as all the intervening grades. The cost of making it, compared with the quality, is also less than from any other material known. The Tbest food for fattening poultry is sweet fresh oat meal or barley meal, mixed with scalding milk or water. Cooped fowls should be supplied with fresh food three times a day—namely, at daybreak, or as soon after as possible, at midday, and again at roosting time; as much as they can eat should be given to the fowls on each occasion, but no more than can be devoured by the next meal. The remedy against the wire worm, and cut worm, is late fall plowing, after they have pretty much gone into the winter quarters. Domestic fowls will devour them with the greatest avidity, and fall plowing will call flocks of crows, black-birds, &c., over the new plowed fields, to destroy multitudes, and the cold of winter kills all left near the surface. When gardens are spaded or plowed, let out all the chickens you have or can borrow. They will soon learn to follow close to your heels, and lucky would be that worm that can escape their eagle eyes, and the scratching of their merciless claws. This plowing should be done as late as possible, Coffee as a Disinfectant.— Coffee is an effective disinfecting agent, as the following experiment will show: —A quantity of meat was hung up in a room which was kept closed until the decomposition of the meat was far advanced. A chafiing-dish was then put in, and some half-roasted coffee thrown on the fire. In a few minutes the room was disinfected. The best way to effect this fumigation is to strew ground coffee on a 1 hot iron plate. 3 —.—- To Wash Colored Dresses.— e Take a piece of common yellow - soap and cut it into bits; two r good handsfull of bran, and about 1 the same of ivy leaves; boil it alr together, strain it off, and then - wash the dresses; rinse them in t cold water, and the color will be y permanently fixed : they will only r , require being washed oaee in this i- way. They should wA I* fesjug in the air.
