Notes from 1he Scrap Book of an
Old Physician of Greenville Conn*
ty.
The Trsihman?Game Chickens
and Lamper Eels.
A raw Irishman, many years
ago, emigrated and settled in this
section of country. It was a common
custom, at that day and time,
to breed and raise game chickens
tor the sport ot the pit. The Hibernian
was greatly pleased with
the sport, and resolved on having
stock of liis own to pit against all
other game of the country. To
this end, ho procured a setting of
eggs from a party who was represented
to have the best slock in
the country. The party to whom
he applied, for the tun and amusement
that would most likely grow
out of the application, furnished
him with a setting of duck eggs
instead of gamo chickens. The
Irishman, on the hatching, was in
ecstacies of iov and delight at the
appearance of hie game stock, and
called in histriends and neighbors
to look at them.
u Behold," said lie, " what a
large and broad biU they have?
they can bite, and tear all other
till pieces; look at what a broad
ana fiat foot they have: bejabers
all kingdom come could not trip
thein vp /"
Suffice to say that he fed and I
raised his gamesters to full and
mature age, ready, as he conceived,
for tlie sport of the pit. On a certain
day, a time was fixed for the
assembling ot all who had fighting
game stock, at a public placo, to
enter their stock and pay the entrance
fee to contend for the handsome
purse made np for the winner
of the prizo. Onr Hibernian
friend, with tho multitude of contestants,
entered his stock, paying
the required lee. On loosing them,
however, in place of.tho pit, they
made for a pool of waior near by,
and put up the tone of?quack,
quack, diving and playing in the
water, to no little amusement of
the crowd at the expense of the
Irishman. He, however, with that
wit and astuteness, common to this
noble . race, replied : " Bejabers
my fowls are navy fighter*?brincr
on your land lubbers and I will
fight the ring for the prise."
On an other occasion onr Hibernian
friend, when on a branch near
his place, not long after his settling
in this conntry. discovered a watermoccasin
in the branch. Supposing
it to be a lam per eel, loch as
ia common in the water* of Ireland,
gathered it by the bnok of
the neck and oarrled it to Uio
house. The family told him thftt
it was a very poisonous and -dan*
gcrous snake, and. t;>at if it bit
him he would be id danger of losing
his life. His answer waa;
44 Bejabers what is the danger,
when I have been toM by all yon
Americans, that if 1 had my boot!
on, there would not be much danger
in snakee biting, at4 yon see
I have them on."

Tbo dismal December night was

was wreathing its white
pall oyer all, and the wind, murmuring
sadly through the streets,
6oemed to have an almost hnman
wail in its moan. .
4 It's an ngly kind ot a night,1
muttered Mr. Torrjii to himself,
as he buckled his fur closer round
his neck. (And a wind fit to cut
one in two. ilalloo! what's this f'
lie hnd very nearly stnmbled
over something that looked like a
bundle, crouching at the foot ol a
flight of steps in the shadow of &
ruinous old brick archway; but,
as ha chocked himself abruptly,
the bundle erected itself into some
thing human in shape and looked
at him with wild, human eyes.
4 Who are you I' he demanded,
on the impulse of the moment.
4 Only me, sir?little Tess.'
1 l'leaae give we a penny, sir ?'
cried tlio child, suddenly subsiding
into the regular professional
whine of her trade. 4 Only a {>en*

4 Oh you do, eh ? and who takes

4 Old Tim Daley need to, but he's

4 Took up ?'
4 Sent to the Island, sir.,
' Are you a boy ? or a girl !'
(For the creature'6 tangled locks
and ragged garb gave no clue to
its sex.)
4 I'm a girl, sir.'
4 You ought to be ashamed of
yourself, begging in the street,'
said Mr. Terryn, severely. 4 Why
don't you work ?'
As he approached his own door
a bright child's face peeped out
between the curtains, and as Mr/'
Terryn entered the cheery sittingroom,
he could not but think with
a remorseless pang of the shivering
bundle of rags under the brick
arch way beyond.
It's none of my business,' be (
thought. 41 dare say the police
will pick the poor little elf up, j
and tako her where she'll be bet i
tcr off.'
But Mr.Terryn's conscience was
less adamantine than he had given i
it credit for being It prickecThim 1
6orely as he sat toasting his slippered
feet before the' bright embers?it
whispered to him as he
listened to the lullaby wherewith
his wife was hilling the babe to
sleep npon her breast. Had litile
Tess ever known a mother'^ era- i

been six years old, either. *
Where are yon going, my
dear?' questioned his wife, as he
rose tip' suddenly.
4 Out into the street. There was
a child?a clnld there?A little
girl, crouching on some steps?'
4 A child ? Homeless t And on
such a night as this3 .Oh, Herbert,
j'on should have brought her here 1'

lie "lifted her up,.a poor little
skeleton wrapped in a miserably '
thin coating of rags, and feeling
strangely light in his arms, ana
carried her home. Mrs. Terryn
met h i in at the door.
4 Oh, Herbert, what a poor lit- !
tic starved wretch! Her hands
are like birds, claws 1*
Charley looked on in breathless
interest at the process of feeding,
warming and restoring'some vital- i
ity to the torpid object.
When little Test* opened her
eyes, it was to the glow of a warm
fire and the mellow sparkle of gas i
lights.
* Am I dead t' cried tho child,

( How Tesora grows P said Mr.
Terryn suddenly, on one day as
the beantiful girl came in, roey
and smiling, troin a walk. 4 Why.

Mrs. Terryn, with a smile.

resolutely, as be walked up in front *
of his father and stood with folded
arms. 'lean tell you what will i

'Obarley,' said his mother, when t
the angry father had jerked him- i
self out of tho room, * don't waste J
your breath in arguing with your
father. Arguments never con- 1
quered yet, in such a case as this.' <
'But what am'I to do?'
'Have you spoken toTess, yet?' i
' No.' *1
' Wait then?let matters rest. I ,
will manage it.' *
So Mrs. Terryn gave little din- .
ner parties and select soil ces, and
? brought out5 Tesora, according to
the regular programme. She made 1
a sensation. Mrs. Terryn had *
known that she would. Tesora '
was a belle?a queen of fashion. 1
Suitors congregated around her.
'Well,' said Mr. Terryn one
night?he was getting wondrouely ;
proua 01 uis adopted daughter's ;
succees in the world of society? 1
4 are you going out to-night, Tess ?' *
* Yes, papa. 1

41 thought Charley had taken a s

ing with her tablet.

night ? I Suppose Charley could 1

41 am sorry, sir, but I am cn- '
gaged for to morrow night.'
"Mr. Torryn rose and walked 1
restlessly up and down the room. ?
lie was a man much guided by '
the ODinion of hia fullow-mon Too. T
ora must bo a treasure, else why 1
tbis competition among the mil- ?
lionaires tor tier society ! 1
4 Look here Tess?Charley will *
be so disappointed V
41 can't help it. Let me see?' *
and she glanced at her tablets? ?
4 Friday is the only evening I have r
disengaged.' *
4 Fiddlesticks 1' muttered the old ^
gentleman, uneasily. 4 It seems to f
me you're getting to be a great 1
belle, Miss 1' c
4 Am I, papa?' said Tess, laugh- *
ing, 4 But you see I am your own v

rhe Self-Manuring Capacities o
The power possessed by soil c
nanuting itself from the air cor
ititutes the real valne of fallowing
rnd this has caused the introdnc
Lion of mistaken theories, ainon
which may ho classed JethroTull
plan. This agriculturist had g<
hold of an idea, which was, tut
be could, bv continually pulverii
ing the soil, render the particle
io fine that they would pas
hrough the pores of the roots an<
inter into 1 ho structure of the plant
ina to us do away with the ueces
iity of manuring. It is not neces
>ary to point out hero the absurd
ty of such a notion, as every on
cnows that the substances, extrac
ed by plants from the soil are i
lie form of fluid ; but yet the pra<
;ice which it gave rise to was in
reat measure sound. lie obtain
id crops without manure in th
>eti6e in which it ^generally used
ind yet not without manure in <
cicntific sense, for he manured hi
and from the atmosphere. Tin
ilan ho adopted was to prepan
ho whole field by.thoroughly dig
;ing and forking it. Hie wliea
eaa then dibbled in, in rows o
liree together, each row being om
dot apart; then a Bpace of threi
eet was left without anything
ilanted in it, and then three raort
owe, and so on. As soon as tin
rhcat was up, the one-foot space*
etween the rows were forked ovci
epeatedly with a fork about si)
nches wide, so that it did no
ome nearer than three inches tc
ho wheat, which destroyed all tin
reeds, and allowed the air to pen
trate to the roots. The three fee
paces were treated the same a
allows, and were thoroughly turn
id every way, and exposed to tin
lir up to the time when the wliea
net over the three-feet intervals
Vfter the crop was cnt, the three
eat fallowed spaces were dibblet
nth wheat, and the part whicl
lore the wheat in its turn remain
d fallow.
Tliis will show how necessary it
3 to subject land to a proper work
ug, and that when persons heai
lie frequent admonition to drain
ig deep and often, and they ncg
uct the injunction, they incur t
nore serious loss than they maj
,t first imagine.
Tiik Action of Lime on Sou,
vnd Plants?The action of lime i
wofold ; first physical, and sccom
jbemical. As a mechanical cgeti
t opens stiff clays, rendering then
riaole, mellow and more easil
vorked ; chemically, it acts npoi
he vegetable matter of the soil an<
ets free those stores of valaal>l<
ubstnnces which, without the ac
ion of this agent, must havo re
nained inert and useless. It als<
nters directly into the composi
ion of plants, and in many varie
ic8 forms a large proportion of tin
rcight of their inorganic constitu
i)ts. It neutralizes certain acid
ihicli aro often present in soils
endering them useful to vcgcta
ion instead of being positively in
urions, which they are in thci
original state. The oxistonce o
rater in the soil, however, affect
he action of lime verv considera
>ly. If the land is wet and tin
trained, lime will not exert tin
nine influence it would do in tin

V greater quantity of lime is nec
seary to produce a given effect

Editing a Eewspaper.
s Editing a paper is a very pleasant
business, says an exchange.?
r If it contains too much political
0 matter, people won't have it; and
if it contains too little, they won't
8 bave it. If the type is '?rga, it
8 don't contain enongh reading matter
I and if the tvnn It flir?T<
- ? ?'? I
can't hardly rcaiT it. If wo pub
t libit a few jokes, people say that
I' we are nothing bnt a rattle brainl*
ed fellow; if wo omit jokes, then
h we are an old fossil. It* we insert
u an article which ploasce the ladies,
men become jealons; and if we
'* do not cater to the wishes of the
1 fair 66X, the paper is not fit to come
in their houses. It we remain
? in our office nnd attend to busi8
ncss, folks say we are too proud
to mingle with our equals; nnd if
we go out among the people, they
^ accuse us of neglecting business,
and wasting time from the profi
r table employment of working for
their beuefit. If we do not pay
1 all bills promptly, some folks cay
that we are not to be trnsted; and
if we do pay on demand, others
accuse ns of stealing the money.
If we abuse the administration,
t folks say we are too reckless; and
^ if we speak well of any act of the
^ ruling powers, they think wo are
not "sound on the goose." What-.
^ ever an editor may do, persons are
always ready to find fault, and
'] swear thoy could beat him all to
| piecos at his own calling. Hence, |
] it is decidedly pleasant, agreeable i
e work. But among all the grum-1
, blera it has been our fortune to
oncounter, the man who never
, nays for his paper is the worst.?

s Female Influence.?IIow often
- have I seen a company of men,
t who were disjKwed to be riotous.
i checked all at once into decency 1
3 by the accidental entrance of an J
3 amiable woman ; while her good
X sense and obliging deportment
y charmed tbom at least into a tem3
porary conviction, that there is
i nothing so beautiful as female ex
r cellence, nothing so delightful as
c female conversation. Totormthe
t manners ot men, nothing contrib>
utcs so much as the caste of the
} women they converse with. Those
- who are mo6t associated with wo-1
t men of virtue and understanding,
s will be always found the most
l amiable characters. Such society,
j beyond everything else, rules oft'
t the protrusions that give to many
t. an ungracious roughness; it proi
duces a polish more perfect and
1 more pleaaing than that which is
i received from a general commerce
with the world. This last is often
spacious, but commonly superfi;
cial ; theothcr'isthe result of gent
ler feelings and a more elegant hnr
manity; the heart itself is mould
, ed, and habits ot undisscinblcd
courtesy arc formed. I
A Rap attiirGirls.? An Omaha
lcctnrer thus discussed the question
the other night;
8 44 Twenty years ago, the ladies
s were their own dress makers, and
d Jvow beautiful they looked to the
it brave men who then courted them,
i Then they wore no hoops, no
y switches, no anything, but were
i just as God made them. A lover
1 could then toll whether his love
e weighed 100, 80 or 75 pounds;
- could tell at a glance what sho was.
But now they could not tell wheth>
cr the girl was made by the dress
maker or by God; they looked
1 her over, and were not sure she
