» Dropsical Land "--Underdraining.

John Johnston writes the feoaton Oulti-tator that " the advocates of draining ex­pect farmers to be possessed of common

• sense enough to. discriminate between land that will pay foV. draining- and that which (till not. If there are those that cannot io discriminate, the draining of a few acres will show plainly whether it will or jot, so that even if one has very little judgment in the case, he need not essen tislly err. Every may have observed that one part of a field will i a general produce Jne bright straw; (it maybe wheat'O* oth-a grain,) w i t n plump heavy earis,"giving a satisfactory return, for seed and labor ex-

I pended, while immediately -adjoining siich part of the field another ;*porlIoh produces daik colored straw, (even it, not rusted,)

j and lean ears, with ligh^.Tinremunerating grain. Now, did i t ever occur to the far­mer to ask himself the reason why one part of the field brought good grain'and the other bad ?—for surely he must see there was a local cause. . I <will-tell how it,

the part giving good, grain ia sound,

(healthy land; the part gjvinjj-' bad grain,' is dropsical and disf/a;se"d; ''Wh'a.te.ver ma-' nuremay have beenftppliedtorit, elicllittle; or no good, andwhateve'rYeg^titJoriiflpip-duced was unhealthy like itselfc To prove »hat I say, let a ditch he d$gM $& sound land, and there will be no run <rf;Water, eTen in a, wet time, unless-, there -is a snow bank melting near by_,,which runs into the ditch from the surface.' Then let another ditch be dug through the diseased land, two and a half feet "deep, and in*nihety.-nine cases out of. a-T»undred there- -will he a free run of wateT, and thatcornija'g a t pr near the bottom of the ditch. And if the dropsical portion is 'thoroughly' tapped, i t will bring for a number, of years much bet­ter crops than the land that was healthy from the beginning. - In. manyf eases such

land will pay the cost. o{ draining,by the excess of the first firop^ w h e r e i t can- b e

drained for $15 to $22 per acre."

MANAGEMENT OP MANURES. The Country Gentleman, ia an article

on this subject given ia i ts issued of the 17th ult., remarks: " W e have often had oc­casion ttf Urge the" importance of a thor­ough intermixture of manure with the soil. One ol the chief reasons why fermented manure so often proves superior to unfer-mented, is the facility with which it may be pulverized while working in by plowing and harrowing. Repeated experiments rith. fresh manure, made by plowing it un­let in the usual way, in one instance, and bv thoroughly grinding i t into the soil by means of what ia termed a drag roller, in another, have shown the beneficial effects of the lattei treatment on the crop to be more than double the former In corrob- I oration of these views? we condense into a brief form the statement of an experiment reported by H. C. White , of Barre, Vt . , in the New England Farmer, He cuts all-kind of fodder, except hay, before .feeding, ;

which causes all his manure to be short, and easily spread and intermixed with -the soil. He breaks up his green sward eight or fen inches deep, late in Autumn; in the Spring the aod is rolled, and the fresh short manure is drawn out and spread up­on it at the rate of fifteen to eighteen cords per acre. I t is thoroughly mixed with the soil by the harrow or cultivator, and just before planting i t is plowed three to five inches deep and harrowed again. This treatment has given, for the last three years, 60 to 70 bushels of corn per acre. The success is attributed, no doubt Justly, to the thorough mixture - of mannre and soil, the,, product ; of corn, oats,, potatoes and hay beHrig^about double the amount that obtained ' under the ofd system.'

Laing, in his travels in Norway, says that the horses in that country have a yery sensible way of taking their food. In­stead of swilling themselves.with a pailful of water at a draught, no doubt from the fear of not getting any again, and then overdoing themselves for the same reason, they have a bucket of water put down be­side their allowance of hay. ' I t is atous-tng to see with what relish they take a sip of the one and a .mouthful of the other, alternately, sometimes only moistening their mouths, as a rational being would do, while eating a dinner of such dry food.— A broken winded-horse is scarcely "ever seen in Norway.

. — . ^ — Health Promoted by Family Music

Music, like paintings and statuary, re­fines and elevates, and-sanctifies. Song is the language of gladness, and it is the utterance of devotion. But coming lower down, it is physically beneficial; it rouses the circulation, Wakes up bodily energies, and diffuses life and animation around.— Does a lazy man ever sing ? Does a milk-and-wajtex character ever strike a stirring note? Never. Song is the outlet of men­tal and physical activity, and increases both by its exercises. No child has com­pleted a 'religious education who has not

been taught to sing, the songs of Zion.— No part of our»religious worship i s sweet­er than this . In David's day it was a practice and a^study.

T H E MAINE 1UAW tW MAINE.

Dr. Marsh —: Dear Sir: I was quite amused yesterday and interested in the account given me by a gentlemen of the highest position and consideration in the State, who made me a call at my quarters at the Augusta House.

The conversation turned upon the cir-cumstancesthat the enemies of temperance are constantly asserting that the Maine Law is inoperative for good, while some professed frieiids of the -cause are swift witnesses, in the same direction.

The,gentleman alluded to, who lives a few mil<38, out of the City of Augusta, said he was in^ town three weeks before« and stopped a t a neighboring hotel with a rel­ative of .his. His attention was attracted b y certain persona who seemed to be loung­ing about without any apparent business, and who 'were occasionally going through a long, dark entry in the reaT, and coming out with eyes more watery and noses more fiery, than when they went in. At night these persons: were anore .numerous, their Tanks being recruited from outside.

While there Was no bar and no appear­ance of liquors on sale, yet he was sure they could' be had by the initiated.

This gentleman arrived at Augusta again, the day he called on me, and took lodgings again at the same hotel. He had-been there but a short time, when he perceived a marked change and improve­ment in the aspect of things' about the es­tabl ishment The fast men, the red faces, the watery eyes and. rubicund noses, were no longer visible, and he said to bis rela­tive, " why, what has happened here, ev­erything is changed and wonderfully im-

proVed F" His friend1 iaiighmgl^ Replied: " O! we had a seizure here ygsterday ; the police came in quietly and succeeded in finding all the landlord's stock of liquors and carried it off, and the red noses have vanished too !" Immediately it was a ten}-perancje house, with all the quiet and good order of one.

Afterward, I saw the City Marshal, and he, said the Maine Law is now executed as a matter of course, and attracts no atten­t ion. Formerly a seizure at a hotel would ronse the gutter mob, and the streets would be full of people; but now such an occur­rence will attract no more attention than the arrest of a drunken man ; it is done by the acquiescence of all parties.. I t will be a work of some time, he says, to uzt-ear/:/t all the secret rum shops, which are kept only by low and vile men, but in the end the work will be thoroughly done.— In the meantime the temptation is removed entirely out of the way of the young and inexperience.

Truly yours, NEAL DOW.

The Directors take pleasure in reassur­ing their numerous friends and patrons, that the Road to ruin i s now in good or­der. Within the last three months i t has earred more than three hundred thousand passengers_ clear through from the town of Temperance to the city of Destruction, while the number of way passengers is encouraging. An enormous amount of freight, such as mechanics' tools, house­hold furniture, and even whole farms, have gone forward; and the receipts of trJe year have been so large that the Directors have resolved to declare a dividend of five hun­dred per cent. The track has been much improved, and relaid with Messrs. Diabo-lus & Co.'s patent rail. The grades are reduced to a dead level, aud the switches are brought to such perfection all along the route, as to j e r k the cars in a moment from the main track, to avoid collision with the Total Abstinence engine and the Tem­perance trains which have recently occa­sioned so much trouble. In short we have spared no expense to make i t superior to any other Road to Ruin «ver established. I t gives us great pleasure to call the at­tention of the public to the improvements in our engines and cars. The old favorite Locomotive-r—Alcohol—has a firerohamber of double capacity, and patent driving-wheels after the fashion of old Juggernaut. Our wine cars are models of luxurious conveyance, aftCT the model of the far-famed London Gin Palaces, Where ladies and children and gentlemen can have all attention, To keep up with the spirit of the times, our whiskey, rum and brandy cars have been greatly enlarged, and fare reduced to half price. Our cider, porter and beer cars are exciting great attention among the children. Our experienced en­gineer, Mr. Belial, and oux'polite and gen­tlemanly conductor, Mr. Mix, have been too long known to the traveling public to need any commendatian. Indeed, so swift and sparkling are our .trains through all our towns and villages, that some have called it " T h e flying artillery of hell let loose on the earth." Tickets must always be procured o'f Mr. Mix, at the Drinker's Hotel, where you may see the following extract from OUT charter from government:

Around her spread, And on her lips a quiet smilo reposed, As if in sleep, life's weary dream had closed.

She slept the last, last sleep; Death's seal was on Jior brnw^and she had passed Tired and suffering, lo her home at last,

Leaving no friends to weep, No Invinj? onus to coiue at sunset hours To sprinkle on her busotu te-ir-t and flowers.

No warm and gentle hand • > Clasped tier's in tenderness, as In the night. She went nut. gently from this world of light

Into the shadowy land. No earthly watcher lingered at her side To hear her Inst low murmur when she died.

But did she- die alone? No! not alone: One friend kept watch with her, Ono g jule voice, one loving smile was near

COTOCXUDF.D FROM LAST WEEK.

All that day Margaret was nlone, and in a state of excitement which was little less than- insanity. She was convinced that her husband had loved Miss Melville, and that in a moment of anger he had married an­other. The -"weight? of- obligation which had always weighed heavily on Margaret's soul could no longer be borne'. There was only one thing to bo done—she must go away forever. She would not remain un­der the roof which cuuld never again be a home to her: Let her husband, be happy if he could; and she felt a bitfer satisfac­tion at her own desolation. She had in her possession a few hundred dollars, rea­lized from the sale tit* some valuables, which Mr. Hope had insisted upon her retaining as her own; that little pittance would serve; anything, beggary itself, would be more endurable than that luxurious home.

On the evening of lhat terrible day Mar­garet Hope stole out from the shelter of her husband's roof, and with those two helpless children went forth into the wide world. Three days after, Mr. Hope re­turned to his home and found the place desolate. He could obtain no clue to his wife's departure—the only trace of her was a note nponhis dressing-table :—

" I have left your house forever; hence­forth wa must be as dead to one another. Do not search for me, it would be in vain. Be happy in your own way, and forget even the existence of MABOAKET."

He sank into a seat completely unmanned by a blow so unexpected and so terrible. Beside Margaret's note lay a folded paper-which he opened eagerly—it was the letter that contained the allusion to Miss Mel­ville's lormer engagement with himself.— A perception of the truth dawned upon him ; that letter, or some exaggerated and untruthful account, had been the cause of Margaret's leaving his house.

How much unhappiness a false, artful woman had wrought for him. He had met Miss Melville several years before, while he was a very young man, and had been fascinated by her beauty and manner. She was a bold, unscrupulous woman, who had passed beyond her girlhood ; and had left there every relic of youth or enthusiasm. Cold and designing, she determined from the first to secure so rich a prize as Mr. Hope, and she nearly succeeded. Fortu­nately for him, circumstances disclosed her treachery before he had gone too far to re­treat, and he left her forever. Several years passed before he even again thought of love, and when he met Margaret Foster with her quiet, still loveliness, and her shy, proud manner, it was a new revelation of the sex to him. He loved her devotedly, and it was that feeling only which prompted him to make her his wife.

Mr. Hopo hadi one serious fault which had aided much in bringing upon him that great misery Teal feelings. o r , father, who looked upon any outbreak of enthusiasm as an actual crime, and regard ed an imaginative child much in the same light as our forefathers did those possessed of a devil, Arthur had learned to appear cold and unsympatbizihg, though he had a kind heart, full of generous impulses and feelings. And so, even in his affection, Arthur Hope could not be demonstrative. When the thousand tender follies of a lover

Sjose to his lips, his father'< bitter laugh seemed ringing in his ear to check them; when in conversation he would have in­dulged in the fanciful theories and compar­isons peculiar to an imaginative mind, the recollection of the biting sarcasm which of old had so lacerated his feelings, kept him silent, and he appeared cold and reserved when his heart was most interested.

So it easily happened that Miss Mel­ville's name had never been uttered by him, though the thought of her brought no pain. That letter had filled him with great anxi­ety on account of the friend whom he truly loved, and the sudden journey was under­taken to preserve him from the misery which must result from a marriage like that. Mr. Hope had saved his friend, but returned to findl his own life darkened for­ever.

Thus two beings of like sympathies, lov­ing each other fondly, and with every pros­pect of happiness, had been separated by the faults vgbich had grown up in their na­tures from the ©fleets of false teachings.— A. single idle word had served to do this, and now they were far asundgr/each forced to bear in solitude the weight/of wretched­ness which came upon them. .

Mr. Hope's* search for his wife Waa i n vain, 'and he was forced to settle down in

and did her best by them, but ' the employ­ment was anything but lucrative. One woman sent her a pan of doughnuts by way of compensation, and several of the others forgot to pay her at all, nor could Margaret summon resolution sufficient to refresh their flagging memories.

Now the AYinter was upou'her, cord and terrible. Had tho neighbors known of het actual sufferings, they would gladly have aided her, but they had grown to avoid her entirely, and she sometimes; did not leave the house for days. Often the little boy cried for food, and she had not enough to satisfy him ; but still she'did not wholly despair, she must bear up for the sake of those children. Late in December the rent fell due, and tho landlord was punctual to the moment.

" Well, Mrs. Moulton," he said, abrupt­ly entering, " have you got any money for me?"

Margaret tremblingly told him of her poverty, and begged him to wait for a little time ; at first he would not Consent, but at length he said that in ten days he would come again.

" That'll be the day before New Years, ma'am, and if you haven't got the cash ready, why, you must make tracks, that 's all ."

Margaret scarcely remembered die men­ace, for her babe was ill, and every thought was devoted to it.

The days passed on, and their misery had reached the/climax—there was nothing left hut beggary or death. I t was the last day of the year, and to Margaret there remained neither flour nor wood. The little boy cried with hunger and cold, and the infant

^nlopt up«i»-lrer-bo»t>m moaning -with TJ«jn even in its slumber. The day wore on, and there waa no hope of relief.' Margaret j sank down in her misery—terrible thoughts of suicide came over her ;—death for her and those infants would be a blessing ; but she was still sane enough to put by the idea.

I t was growing evening, and the fire had died to a few faint embers, Margaret felt the babe growing cold upon her breast, and that gave her a little energy. She broke to pieces a wooden stool, and kindled a fire with it, wrapped herself in a coarse cloak that still remained, and sat down, holding the child, while the boy crouched close to her side. Suddenly there was the tramp of a horse ; it paused before the door. Mar­garet knew that the moment had come.— The outer door opened, and the landlord entered muffled to the chin.

" Well, Mrs. Moulton, here I am, you see; I expect you are going to square ac­counts and give me a supper into the bar- ' gain !"

Margaret had not stirred from her sea t ; she felt no dread, though the Boy vras crouching in fear to her side, she .was past that.

" Indeed, sir," she said, lifting her drea­ry gaze to his face, " I have not a penny

he never confided to any his ' of money, noT have I tasted food since last Brought up by a stem, Harsh ' night."

" ' '• Hey day ! a fine stoTy; and what p e you going fo do about paying your debts?*"

" Have a little mercy ! for these chil­dren's sake ; do not be hard upon me ; at least, let us die here."

" Don' t talk to m e ! Why, you've got a bigger fire than I'd think of having. Hal­lo, if you aint burning up the furniture for fear I'll seize it. Why, you wretched, abominable woman!"

" I couldn't see these children freeze. Oh, think what your own feelings would be to hear your babes cry with cold and hunger, and not a morsel to give them.w

" People shouldn't have children unless they are able to support them. No, ma'am, out of this you shall go. I shouldn't won­der if you bad plenty of money ; you only want to get rid of paying your debts."

" Do I look like it ?" she exclaimed, throwing back the hood of her; cloak, and exposing her pale, famine-stricken face.—r-" Take all there is in the house, b u t leave us the shelter of tbis roof for a few days longer."

" Take all there is ? Of course I shall— it 's mine by r ight ; but I don't want-any-of the live stock with i t ; so you must, pack!"

" N o t to-night! oh, my God—not to­night ! Hear the wind!—you will not murder us!"

" Go and beg ; anybody'll let you sleep in their barn ; but I've been so cheated' that you "needn't expect any mercy ffonv me."

"Just to-night? ,We will go in the morning ; but wait till then. ' '

" 1 won't wait a moment. Come, you're got your cloak on and are ready to start;—r'l You ought to be obliged- to me for leav"

upon ' the fence, and then tamed towards her: ; " If you are seen round these premises to-mOrrdw morning, I'll find those that'll clear yon out," he said; "Temember, I am a man 6f my word."

He got into his sleigh and drove off; the echo died in the distance; there was no sound but the moan of the wind and the, wailing voice of the child. The snow was falling rapidly, and cut like ice upon her bare forehead. 8he dragged herself a ahprt distance from the .house, and sank^down upon a high fence. A paper was rattling in the wind ; i t was the announcement of the. coming sale of her furniture.

" Mama, •mamai"- pleaded the boy, " do speak to me. t don't mind the cold, but it seems as if you were dead " . "Yes , Willie, yes," she said, faintly, " mama is here."

" Can't you walk, mama ? Do try.— Somebody'll let us stay in their house, I know they will."

" I t 's of .no use," murmured Margaret, " it will soon be over, very soon."

She waa so weak and exhausted that the cold had taken an almost instantaneous effect upon h e r ; the blood in her veins Seemed riongealed to ice, yet in spite of all a strange drowsiness, which she could not overcome,,stole over her.

*• Mama, mama !" cried the boy again, . His voice of agony brought her back to herself. She opened her eyes and looked round. .

" Yesj Willie, yes. ' ' " Come, mama, do come." She strove to rise, but fell back upon the

ground.' The snow was sifting down hea. rily upon their garments, and each instant the wind increased in force, till it threat­ened to -overwhelm them in the gathering drifts. •'Margaret's senses had begun' to forsake '-her. She heiird strange voices in the bealjng storm, her pain began to be less felt, the-cries of her infant were scarcely beard. .-

" Mama," said the boy again, and more faintly,' " I 'm not quite so cold,' the snow will cover us up, and we can sleep."

" No, no," she groaned, " we must not sleep. Come, Willie, come, we will go. I can walk now, indeed I can."

A g a i n t h a t f ear fu l s t r u g g l e , t h a t c l i n g i n g

to life that gives unnatural strength to the w e a k e s t frame—but i t w a s a l l i n v a i n ;

once more she fell back, and this time she knew it was approaching death.

After- that there were but few words spo ken. They were beyond complaint. ,

"Mama," said the boy again, " I ' m sleepy now, very sleepy;" and this time she scarcely comprehended the horror of his words.

There was a jingle of bells in the dis­tance, but Margaret did not Hear them, though they startled the boy from the stupor.

" The bells, mama, the bells." A sleigh whirled"swiftly in sight, coming

from the opposite direction, and pausing before the house, a gentleman sprang out and ran up the steps, knocking impatiently at the door, but there was only a hollow echo in response.

•» TTifrfdr us ," pried the boy. trying to rise, but his benumbed HmbB would scarce- i ly support him, and he could only drag himself slowly along. " Here we are, sir, if you want us, mama, baby and I . "

The man turned quickly at the voice, and catching him up in his Close embrace.

" I t ' s papa, it 's papa," he exclaimed. He pointed to the spot where Margaret

was lying, and their preserver rushed to -wards them.

ulMargaret^—wife," cried a voice that reached the sufferer.

" I am dreaming," she muttered ; " this is death."

" No, no ; it IB real. See Margaret, it is I, your husband."

He clasped her in his arms, and his kisses on hor cold lips brought consciousness back. ••

"Arthur ," she whispered, "Arthur ; " the chilled blood, rushed . to her heart again, dispelling the lethargy which had stolen over her; but the sudden reaction was too much for her weak frame, arid she sank in­sensible in his arms.

,-llSditLLANY.

Mr. Hope called to t,hc driver for aid, and they bore the three back to the house. An entrance \vgis speedily effected, Marga­ret and her children laid upop the bed while they lighted the fire, breaking up the furni­ture in the most pitiless manner, and kin­dled a blaze, such as had not warmed the old hearthstone for years. Mr. Hope or­dered the man to return to the nearest tav­ern for food and wine. Very soon the dri ver came back. £§

Before the wife recovered from that long swaon, the children had been quieted, and flic old kitchen wore an air almost of com­fort. When Margaret came to herself she wa's^in a low chair bythe'fire, the little boy holding the child at her feet, her husband's arms about hex neck, and his eyes fixed tenderly upon her face.

" Isn't it a dretm ?" she cried wildly, " te l l me—do speak."

" It is real Margaret, 1 have found you again. In a few moments you will leave this place forever. Oh Margaret, how could you doubt me so cruelly ?"

Sitting in the firelight he told his tale, and Margaret clung to him in mingled love and self reproach. ' , ;

I t was not your fault," he answered ; " nor mine; We have suffered for the.errors ojf those who guided our early youth ; let as take warning lest we likewise peril the happiness of these little ones."

So the warmth stole hack to -Margaret's heart, and the light to her soul, the unwa­vering day of perfect l ove and trust which could never be dimmed;

T H E SAP WALK.

We were going homeward the other day, and on State street, a short distance south of the spot of the Busch homicide, we overtook two gentlemen. They seemed from their dress to be nearly related, and a close look made us regard them as sire and son.

The elder looked like a hearty liver of about forty-five. His frame was well knit and symmetrical, and his face looked as if disease and he were strangers. His com! panion had much the -same hearty look, the same«inewy frame, the same round,

..Smooth features. Like the elder, he was richly and tastefully dressed, and the two seemed wending their way homeward.

" Surely there was nothing sad in that ," says the reader. No, not in the fact that the sire and son were homeward moving—that the arm of the younger was drawn through that of the elder, and that the son leaned upon the arm of the father.

No, not in,that alone, but we saw that there was more. We saw that the young man walked unsteadily, and' thought be must be i l l ; but we looked'again, and saw that his was the unsteady step of drunk­enness. Young, manly in appearance, surrounded by competence, if not wealth, he reeled down State street, at high noon '—drunk ! What were the feelings which must have agitated the central soul of that father, enfeh reader who has'a son may im­agine—our pen cannot paint them.

" O u i l t i s t h e s o u r c e d f s o r r o w !" W h d

What strange influence came upon her, as in one moment she saw all—saw his babyhood, his 'child-hood, saw' :arl the sports of his boyhood, and so onward, until she came np to the sad present! And oh, what vision is that which will not away ? She sees—-nay, lady, close not your eyes, the vision will not down—she sees the opening' future ; sees her son bloated, marred, bruised in street brawls, and battered by licentious­ness. She sees a prison—an iron-grated cell—through whose rusted bars she catch­es the wild glare of eyes she knows only too well. Why does she start ? Does she S e e b l o t c h e s o f b l o o d u p o n t h a t h a n d ?

Does she see in the background a gallows ? Alas ! all this may be ; that mother's vis­ion may have been prophetic.

But why write or think so much of this young man ? Why ? There are hundreds of young men in the city, as good as he, who are going the same road.

And then, we have our hundreds of li­censed dens, to send him and others on that way. We have them ibr that express purpose ! Oh, wo are fools, or worse, when we open those traps of damnation, and then shed crocodile tears over the wretches who fall into them '• What party in this city dare oppose them ? Is it not enough to shelve any man, before a nomi nating convention, to know that he has ever made an honest, manly effort to sup­press those nests of murder? Is i t not even an essential to success, that he shall " stand f a i r " w i t h t h e s a l o o n a n d c o f f e e - h o u s e

And can anyone tell how many young men were started toward the drunkard's grave, and the drunkard's hell, by the leaders of the fashion in this city during the late holidays ? How many resolutions to touch no more the cup broke down on New Year's day before the plead* ings of gay young ladies to pledge them in a glass of wine ? Ruin is to follow. It seems too hard, . but we ask. Do not such deserve the heritage of the drunkard's wife?—Chicago Cti Adv.

not prove it, where could he find relief, though liis property were worth ten times the amount of the mortgage ?

In the case of Rathhone d'gt. Stebbins, in Monroe county, referred to above, the parties who sought to set aside the fore­closure and sale as void, besides proving by the affidavit of four of them that no notice had actually reached either, showed from, the post office records that all the fet< ters deposited in the Rochester office, on the day following, directed to the little towns where the four parties who did 'not get notice resided, were actually transmit) ted by mail and were received at theii destination, thus precluding the idea of any miscarriage by mail. They also showj ed that one of the notices, which they found; was in ah open envelope with a one cent stamp, coming under the class " circular'' —and that on the day named in the 'aflv davit, but five such had been deposited id the Rochester office. Since nine were sworn to In the affidavit, the conclusion was deduced that the other had not been deposited. j

Upon such nice testimony had they to rely to contradict the presumption of the affidavit—testimony, however, of a kind which it. would be impossible to procure id an office like that in this city, in regard to the letter deposited for city delivery.—* Thus, under the existing statute, a man's property may be sold without his knowlj-edge, and he will be without remedy, unt less he can contradict the presumptions of the affidavit or prove actual fraud.—Even' ing Post. _ j

A case recently reported in our legal column presents a lesson to real estate owners, which -they will do well to get by henrt. i t teaches us what enormities may be done according to law. A nior-gago was foreclosed in Monroe county, in this state, by the proceeding called " Fore­closure by Advertisement," under the stat­ute, without actual notice to the parlies interested. By some marvels of evidence, and a want of carefulness in the parties meditating the fftud, which the next time they would not commit, the parties whose rights were cut off succeeded in their suit, and this foreclosure was declared void.— But the proceeding teaches us, notwith­standing, how a man's property may be taken away without actual notice to him, and he remain without remedy.

Suppose a man owes a mortgage on a piece of l a n d : it is remaining past due ; he has just paid his interest and dis­missed it from his mind for six months.— The mortgagee, or the owner's enemy, who buys the mortgage from the mortgagee, advertises, under the statute, a notice of the sale (in which he is not bound to spe­cify the time or place of sale) for twelve weeks in any Weekly paper he chooses, say' the Bungtown Weekly Roarer, sticks a copy of the advertisement on the outward door of the CSty Hall, and files one in the coun­ty Clerk's office, Four weeks previous to

of the Atlantic Monthly, has some large! hearted, sensible thoughts upon language;. Here is a part of what he said •—" Lanf guage is a solemn thing—-J said—it grows out of life—out of its agonies and exta-sies, its wants and its weariness. Every language-is a temple, in which the soul ojf those who speak it is enshrined Because time softens its outlines and rounds thf sharp angles of its cornices, shall a fellow take a pickaxe to help time ? Let me tell you what comes of meddling with things that can take c/tre of themselves. A friend of mine had a watch given him, when he

was a boy, a ' bull's eye,' with a loose«i(-v e r c a s e t h a t c a m e o f f l i k e a n o y s t e r s h e l l

the core or the real watch lies in your hand as naked as a peeled apple. Well, he ber gan by taking off the case, and so on fronf one liberty to another, until he got it fairi-ly open, and there were the works, as good as if they were alive—^crown wheel, bal­ance-wheel, and all the rest. All right except one thing:::-:there was a confound­ed little hair had got tangled round the balance wheel. So my young Solomon got a pair of tweezers, and caught hold of the hair very nicely, and pulled it righi out, without touching any of the wheels, • when, buzzzZZZ!!! and the watch had done up twenty-four hours in double mag­netic-telegraph t ime! «, j

The English language was Wound up to run some thousand years, I t rus t ; b u t i f everybody is to be pulling at everything he thinks is a hair, our grand-children will haty to make the discovery that it is 4 hair-spring, and the old Anglo-Norman soul's time-koeper • will run down, as so many other dialects have done before it.—-I can't stand this meddling any better than you, sir. But we have a great deal] to be proud of in the life-long labors of that old lexicographer, and we mustn't be| ungrateful. Besides, don' t let us deceive] ourselves—the war of the dictionaries i^ only a disguised rivalry of cities.-colleges," and especially of publishers. After all, the language will shape itself by larger forces than phonography and dictionary-making. You may shape up the • ocean as you like, and harrow it afterwards, ifyou can—but the moon will still lead the tides) and the -winds will form their surface.'' •

The Duty of Owning Boobs'.

UI BifflitY,. WAWI BBBCBaa. -

We form judgments 'of meii1 frohj little things about their house t of .ivblcrj' the owner, perhaps, nevet - thinks. 'Ih"earifer years, when travelii«g in t h e West , 'Were taverns were aitfrays scarce or 'unknown! and^every ^ettieVs house was ..a 'hoiisfe of " Entertainment," i t was ;a mhtter' OT^siJme importance and some experience tii 'select-wisely where you would putiirj . A n d w e always looked for flowers, tf" there' Were no trees for shade, no patch 6f flowers in the yard, we were suspicious of the placev But, no matter how rude the cabin,, or Tough the surroundings, if we saw that the window held a little trough for ftdW'ers;, and that some vines twined abotit strtfigs let down from the eave-% we were confideTit that there was sonic t.wto and carefulness in the lo-j cabin. In a new country, where people have to tug for a living, no one wil l t ike the trouble to rear flowers, unless the love of them is pretty strong—and this lahte blossoming out of plain and unculti­vated people is, itself, like a clamp of hare* bells growing out of. the seams of a rock. We were seldom misled. A patch of'flbwj-ers came to signify kind people, clean bedfe 1 and good bread.

But other signs are more significant in other states of society. Flowers about a rich man's house may signify only that hb has a good gardener, or that he has refined neighbors, and does what he sees them do-

But men are not accustomed to buy books unless they want them. If, on visi­ting the dwelling of a man oL'slehdar means, I find the reason why he has cheap

sayists, no selection of historians, no trav­els or biographies—no select fictions or curious legendary lore ; but then, the walls have paper-ore -which cost three1 dollars a roll, and the floor have, carpets that cost four doUars.a yard! Books, are the win­dows through, which the sonl looks out A house without books i s like a. room without windows, i No man has a right t o bring up his, children. v4thoutsnirpunding tMm^witWjDOks^tl^-Kas the'hjeans.to buy theni.^ ylt is a wrong to his family. He cheats them! Children learn to read by being in the presenge..o.f books."" The love of knowledge comes with reading, and grttWs**upon i t . "^.tid th© love of knowledge, iff a young mind, is ^almost a warrant against the inferior excitement of passions and Vice?. . Let us pity those poor rich men who l i te barrenly -in great bookless houses 1 Letrns congratulate the,' p'ppr that, in our day, books are so cheap that a man may every year add a hundred'volumes to his library for the price of"\*hat his tobacco and his beer wodld post him. Among the earliest ambitions to be excited in clerks, work­men, journeymenj and indeed, among all that ate struggling'up in life from nothing to something, i s |ha t 'o f owning, and con­stantly adding'tbi a library of good books. A little library grooving' larger every year is an honorable part-of a young man's his­tory. It i«"a man's duty'to have books. A library is 'hot a luxury, but one of the necessaries of life. -' " ' -

Maxims for Married Women.

A yoiilig lady being on the point of mar­riage, applied,'.to aniaTr'ied friend for a set of rules to guide her ' in her'new condition. The fofiow-ing were presented to her_in reply :—"' '

" 1 . Avoid all -thoughts ;of managing your husband-.-,.?. Never, try.'.tp" deceive or impq.se up<^ j i s , uad[erstandjng, nor give him uneasiness, out treat him with affec­tion, sincerity anoj respect. 3. Remember tl^ft husbands,.at b§st?

Resolve every mor­ning to be cheerful that day, and if any­thing occur to break j o u r resolution, suf £r i t not to put you out of temper with your husband, 8.

satifaction ^of'having your'own''will, or gaining the better of an argument, than risk a qupfrel or create a heart-burning which; it is impossible to .foresee, the end of. 9. Implicit submission in a man to his wife is ever disgraceful to both; implicit sub­mission, in a wife to the just will' of her husband is what she promised at the altar —what'the good will revere her for, and what is, in fact, the greatest . honor she can receive. 1,0. Be assured a woman's power, as well as her happiness, has no other foundation than her husband's es­teem and love, which it is ier interest by all possible me^ns to preserye and increase. 11. Enjoy with him his- satisfaction, share and soothe his cares; and with the utmost assiduity .conceal^ .his infirmities,. 12, If you value your oWn__Wd your husband's
