Keep it before the people That the earth was made for man, That the flowers w ere strown And fruits were grown To Mess and never to ban; Tr at sun aud rain And corn and grain Are yours and mine, my brotherFree gifts from Heaven, And freely given To one as well as another!

Keep it before the people That famine, and crime and wo Foiever abide. Side side by side. With luxury's dazzling show; That Lazurus crawls From Dive's halls. And starves at his gate, my brother: Yet life was given, By God from Heaven, To one as well as another! Keep it before the people That the laborer claims his meed The right cf soil, And the right to toil, From spnr and lridlc freed; The right to bear And the right to share With you and me, and my brother, Whatever is given Dy God from heaven, To cne as well as anotherl HUMOROUS. A little Humor, now and then, is relished by the best of men. When is the atmosphere considered raw? When there is not enough sunshine to cook it. A shrewd old gentleman once said to his daughter, "Be sure, my dear, you nerer n;arry a poor man; but remember the voorest man in the world is the one that has money, and nothing else. "What more precious offering can be laid upon the altar of a man's heart, than the first love of a pure, earnest and af fectionate girl, with an undivided in terest in eight corner lots, and fourteen three-story huoses Some young ladies think it gentility to let their mothers do the ironing, for fear of spoiling their hands. Amonjr the articles advertised in NewYork, to be sold at auction, is "one ma hogany child's chair." The father of this wonderful child must have been one of the Wood family. iurs. lariington on neanng mat a young man had set up for himself, "Poor man," said she, 'has he no friend that will set up with him part of the time?" And she sighed to be young again. An eccentric minister at the East hav ing roticed one of his congregation slip rincout of church at a certain time duling the services.'exclaimed, Brother P! (just as P. was starting for the door) Brother P , there is no reason for your leaving the church at this time; as I passed the tavern tuts morning, I made nriangements with the landlord to keep your toddy hot till the church was out.' The surprise and mortification of the brother can hardly Le imagined. The Cincinnati Nonpareil says: A well known street preacher, in this city, was accosted by a would-bewag,the other day, and questioned as follows: 'Do you believe what the Bible says about the prodigal son and the fatted caliT Certainly, I do. Well, can you tell me whether the calf that was killed, was a male or fe male calf?' Yes, it was a female calf, 'How do rou know that? Because,' said Rees, looking the chep in the face, '1 see the male is alive now. Mr. Partington wishes to know Whether Mason and Dixon's line was & line of stage-coaches or steam packets?

Were the liberty poles which were recently cut to pieces were the last of that noble race? Is the United States Mint any better than the common mint?

' InoiP of no occupation more honorable, than that of the tiller of the $oil." Jefferson. SCOURS IN SHEEP. This troublesome and oftentimes fatal disease, may be easily cured by adminis tering common soot from the back of the chimney, or by giving a spoonful of pul verized charcoal every two hours. The medicine, says a late author, 'is equally rood for man or beast. Mix it into a thick paste, with molasses or sugar, and then dilute with water uattl it is thin euou"h to drink. MULES vs. HORSES. A correspondent of the Southern Plant er, who appears to have had much experience in raising mules and horses, states that he has kept a particular account of the expenses of each for the last ten jears, andTie says, "In no instance have I been able to bring the horse to the plough for less than fifty to sixty dollars; and on the other hand, I have invariably brought the mule to the collar for twen ty to twenty-five dollars. In regard to the comparative expense of keeping, he says the mule can be kept in as good condition as the horse, and will perform the same labor, however severe, in the same time, and on about one-half the food.' In addition to this, the mule will outlive the horse 15 to 20 years, and is seldom sick or crippled. Apply soapsuds to your grape vines and rose bushes; they will Le benefitted bv it. FISH AS MAXUREr There can be no qcstion that fish com posted makes not only a quick and ef ficient manure, but a lasting one also. The Bristol (R. I.) Phaenix says 'It is estimated that upwards of 100,000 bushels of carrots have baen raised in this town the present season. The aver age price is 12 cents per bushel; thus the neat little sum of 813,000 is pocketed by the producers and traders. As carrots are considered nearly equal to oats for horses and neat cattle, and being much cheaper, they are in great demand sev eral large cargoes having been dripped this season, to Iew lork and other places. CURE FOR SCRATCHES. Mr. Lewis Pryon, of Erin, Gcorcia. furnishes the Southern Cultivator, with the following receipe: Wash the feet with warm scan suds. wipe them dry sprinkle finely pulverized blue-stone over the raw places, ther give a good coat of copal varnish, turn the animal on a dry pasture or a lot for a few hours, and you will have no more trouble with it. HINTS TO FARMERS. A bare pasture enriches not the soil, nor fattens the animals, nor increases the wealth of the owner. One animal well fed, is of more value than two poorly kept. Ground once well ploughed, is better than thrice poorly ploughed. when you see the fence down, put it up right oil: n you postpone it til to morrow, the cattle may get over. Y hat ought to be done, do it to-day; to-morrow it may rain. A strong horse may work allday with ont food; but keep him at it, and he will uot last long. A rich soil may produce good crops without manure, but will soon tire. Farmers' sons can have no occupation more honorable than that of the "tiller of the soil." Young ladies who are lucky enough to get farmers for husbands, will find it more profitable to know how to make Johnny cake and cheese, than to play on the piano. ONE OF THE HOLES. The Covington Friend gives the fol lowing account of a curiosity recently discovered in old fountain: Jay Hole is a convenient name, and belongs to a gentleman living four or five miles below town, who appreciates it. He is a lazy fellow, and to save labor when he affixes his cognomen to an instrnment.he makes a flourishing big capi tal J. for Jay, and then jobs his pen through the paper for Hole. Tlus he writes the hole of it, including the Jay, with one letter, and lays the idle schoolboy, who spelt "Old Responsibility V name Acru Jxn in the shade." The editor of an exchange says, he never saw but one ghost, and that was the ghost of a sinner who died without paying for his paper. 'Twas terrible to look upon the ghost of Hamlet was no circumstance!' A young lady urged as an excuse for not learning French, that one tongue was sufficient for a woman. A young man hiving been requested to sing in company, told them he had never attempted to sing since his father made a certain reu.ark to him one Sunday morning. Indeed! and what was the remark,' said one of the young ladies. Why, you see, 1 went up in our garret one mornin' jest afore meetin,' and was singing away, when the old man lie came rurinin' up stairs, and says he to me, "John, what on airth are you filing the handsaw for. on Sunday morning. The company excused hiui.
