Now, us Mr. Thorn brooke's whole 6tock of industrial implements consisted of a lump of wax, an enormous pair of scissors, and one needle, the mending didn't procress rapidly. Ilia way of managing tho button question, too, necessarily involved some delay ; lie had to cut all these useful appendages from another shirt and sow them on, and next time when tho second shirt was wanted, why it was easy enough to make a transfer again. See what it is to be a bachelor of genius ! It never occurred to him to buy a few buttons extra. " Buttons are not much trouble,'1 said Mr. Thornbrooke to himself, as he wiped tho perspiration from his brow, " b\it when it comes to coat sleeves, what tho mischief is a fellow to do? I bavn't any black thread, cither and he looked dolorously at a small tear just in bin elbow, where some vicious nail had caught in the broadcloth.? %i A black pin may do for to-night, and to morrow I'll send it to the tailor. The fact is, I ought to be married , and so I would, if I on ly dared to ask Lilian.

He isn't bashful, not he. ff soineboby would only invent a new way ol popping the question?something that wasn't so embarrassing." Our hero gave his black, glossy curls an extra brush, surveyor! himself critically in tho glass, and then, with a deep sigh, set forth tc call on the identical Lilian Ilay jnond, resolving as he had done r thousand times before, that if? perhaps?may be? Ob, the bashlulucss of tho bach elors I When Mr. Tbombrooke arrived within the charmed precincts ol Mr. Kaymond'g handsome parlors velvet-carpeted, chandeliercd witli gold and ormnlu, crowded to the very doors with those charming knicknacks that only a woman'* taste provides. Miss Lily was at home in a bewildering pink ineri no drese, odged with whito lact around the shoulders, and a crim son moss rose twisted in among the rippling waves ot her sof brown hair. She never looked half so pretty ; and, thank Providence, Jones wasn't on hand foi once in his life. But what was al most as bad, Lily's cousin wa< there?a tall, slender, black eyed girl, with arch lips, and cheeks ac red as a Suitzenherg apple. Oh, how Thornurooke wisheu Miss Ks tlier Allen was at the bottom ol the lied Sea, or anywhere else ex cept in the parlor. And then her eyes wore so sharp?ho hadn'l been doing tho agreeable more - 3 GRI Dnrofrb id Jttttts, v BAILEY, PRO'RS. , than four minutes and a half be1 fore she exclaimed : .< u Dear me, Mr. Thornbrooke? r pray excuse me?but what on i earth is the matter with your el bow f" f n talc A ? % /\ /I A/kA*?1n4 ^ V* A f t*H tf iUai iv. vuiuvu Ptauci?ujo h aivorous black pia had deserted its j post.

" Hold your arm, sir, and I'll set it all right in one moment," said Esther, instantly producing from some 6ecret recess in the folds of her dress, a thimble and needle, threaded with black silk, and setting expertly to work. ; 41 There, now, consider yourself whole." 44 IIow sk illful you are." said Mark, admiringly, after lie had thanked her most sincerely ; 44 but then you have so many nice little concerns to work with. I have only a needle and some wax, be sides my scissors." 44 You ought to have a housewife, Mr. Thornbrookc," said Miss Lily, timidly lifting up her long lashes in his direction. Lilv never could speak to Thornbrooke without a solt little rosy shadow on her chock. 11A what?" demanded Mark, turning very red. " A housewife." 44 Yes," said Mark, after a momentis awkward hesitation, 44 my ?my friends have told me so very often?and I really think so myself, you know?but what sort of a one would you recommend, Miss Raymond 1" 1 44 Ohv any pretty little concern.

And just as he wr.s opening his lips to assure Miss Lily that he was ready to take the precious gift to his aims, then and there without any unnecessary delay, the door opened, and in walked Jones. Mark was not at all cannibalistic in his propensities, but just then he could have eaten Jones up with uncommon pleasure. And thore the fellow sat, pulling his long | moustaches and talking the most , insipid twaddle?sat and 6at, until Mark rose in despair to go.? Even then he had no opportunity to exchange a private wojd with Lily. " You?you'll not forget?" " Oh ! I'll be sure to remember," 6aid 6he, smilingly, and half wondering at that unusual pressure he gave her hand. " Ladies often do provide their bachelor friends so. Mark went homo the happiest individual that ever trod a New York pavement. Indeed, so great was his felicity that he indulged , in various gymnastic capers indicative of bliss, and only paused in l thotu at the gruff caution of a policeman, who had probably forgott ten his own courting days?

And at length, when the t dust was all swept into one cor. ner, and covered by a carelessly (I) , disposed newspaper, he found the . window glass murky, and polished , it with such vensreance that hia I fist, handkerchiet and all, went I through, sorely damaging the . band, and necessitating the an. graceful accessory of an old hat to . keep oat the wintry blast tor the , time being.

"The honsewife, yoalittle imp of Erebus 1" " Yes, sir, in the box, all right." Mark slunk back into his room and opened the box, half expecting to see a full-dressed young lady issue from it, a la Arabian Nights ; but no?it was only a little blue velvet book, and full of odd compartments, in azure silk, containing tape, needles, scissors, silk, thimble, and all the nice little work-table accessories. "And bhe calls this a housewife," groaned Mark, in ineffable bitterness of spirit at the downfall of his bright visions. "But I won't be put off so." Desperation gave him courage, and off he hiea to the Baymond mansion, determined to settle the matter if there were forty Joneses and Esthers there. But Lilian was alone, singing at her embroidery in the sunshiny window casement. " Dear me, Mr. Thornbrooke, is there anything the matter ?" Perhaps it was the shadow from the splendid crimson cactns plumes in the window that gave her cheek 6Uch a delicate glow?perhaps? but we have no right to speculate. " Yes."

( "No, dear Lily, first tell me I < can have the treasure I ask for." < " Yes," she said, with the prct j ticst confusion in the world ; and j then, instead of releasing the cap- ] tive hand, the unreasonable fellow took possession of the other, too.? But as Lily did not object, we suppose it is all right. And that was the odd path by which Thornbrooke diverged from the walks of old bachelorhood, and stepped into the respectable ranks of matrimony. Original Conununicaliana.

The plant receives its life or ieatli from the wind. It is, therefore, important that the planter should know what is in the wind. Wheat takes the rust altera warm, sultry rain, which, in this County, senses on a south-west wind. These winds have usually prevailed in June, and it the wheat is late in making grain, it is injured by the rust. 11 is believed that smut is caused by planting wheat on land which has been taxed too heavy 5U those requisites of which the toil should be possessed for a proiuction of a pure, good, clean wheat suitable for sweet, white bread.

Baldwin, Assessor ot , the Third South Carolina District, has turnished the Goluinbia Guar- I dian with the lullowing brief sy-' nopeis of the requirements of the Internal Revenue Law*, in respect to fruit distillers, as modified by recent regulations of the Commissioners of Internal Revenue. In addition to the charges mentioned below, it will be remembered that there is a tax of fifty cents per gallon on all brandy produced :) 1. They must register their stills and give notice of their intention to distill. The Assistant Assessor will furnish them with the necessary blanks fbr tbis purpose. 2. They must execute a bond, with at least two approved securities. The penal sum of this bond must not be less tban the tax on the brandy that can be distilled at the distillery during a period of thirty days, aud iu no case less than $500. 3. Thc^ mu6t provido themselves with a book, (prescribed form 25$,) in which a record must be kept of tho hours of running, material used, number of boilings made and quantity of brandy distilled. From this book, monthly reports mu6t bo made to tho Assistant Assessor. 4. They must have a place of deposit for their brandy (which may be any house or building near the distillery>) and all brandy made mn6t be put into casks, holding not less than ten gallons, ana placed in said building, until the same is gnaged and the tax paid thereon. 5. On or before the 25th of this month tho distiller will notify the Collector of the probable number of packages he will have on hand to do ganged at tho end of the month; at which time the Collector will order the guaccr to gunge and mark the same. The guager's fees, which will be about $1 per cask, must be paid by the distiller. Fruit distillers pay the following taxes: 1. A special tax or license, at the rate of $50 per annum, to be estimated from the first day of the month in which distilling is begun to the first day of May following; and, in addition, a tax of $4 per barrel on every barrel of brandy J.. A i_ -C ?t. - . 1 pruuuvcu 111 CICORS Ul IUU 1 UIB U1 100 barrels per annum. In addition to tie above require raenls, the Assessor, upon receipt of the distiller's notice, proceeds, at the expense of the Government, to make a survey of the capacity of his distillery, which fixes ti e producing capacity of the distillery at so many gallons for every twenty four hours. Then. at the end of each month, the Assessor ascertains from the reports of the distiller the exact number of hours the distillery wa* run during the month, allowing for all stoppages and suspensions, and thus, by means of the surrey, estimates the capacity oi the month. If the actual quantity produced is less than eighty per cent, of this capacity, the distiller is assessed for the deficiency at the rate of fifty cents per gallon. The dietiller, however, by skillful management can always avoid this deficiency or make it so small as to be of no consideration. Parties intending to engage in fruit distillery, should give notice to lite Assistant Assessor, as soon as possible, so as to give ample time fir effecting all preliminary arrangements with that office.
