Why don't you marry, marry John ?
Not he so t'oud ot change,
Ol*courting every girl, John,
That looks a little strange.
I've seen you riding out, John,
That pretty girl, Miss E ,
But ere a week had flitted, John,
You were llirting with Miss B .
Why don't you marry, marry, John?
Or quit the girls to woo,
It's foolish, very foolish, John,
Such an idle thing to do.
You frighten off some fellow, John,
Who'd marrv I am sure,
So, if you will not marry, John,
Let some one have the tloor.
Whv don't you marry, marry, John,
You look older ev'ry day,
Your action, too, is slow, John,
You've not so much to say.
You are not now as once, John,
Lively, bright and gay,
Ah! you're fading, fading, John,
Zounds, you're getting gray.
You'll never marry, marry, John,

Through the brightest part of life,
May pleasant scorn to you, John,
But will never get a wife.

A Story for Boys.
It is related by a Persian mother that on
giving her son forty pieces of silver as his
portion, she made him swear never to tell a
lie, and said, " Go my son, I consign thee
to God, and we will not meet again till the
day of judgment."
The youth went away, and the party ho
travelled with was assaulted by robbers.
One fellow asked the boy what he had
got, and lie said, " forty dinars are sewed up
in my garments."
Ho laughed, thinking he jested.
Another asked him the same question and
reeeived the same answer.
At last the chief called him, and asked
him the same question, and ho said, "1 have
told two of your people already that I had
forty dinars sewed up in my clothes."
He ordered the clothes to be ripped open
and found the money.
" And how came you to tell this ?" said
the chief.
" Because," icplied the child, ' I would be
false to my mother, to whom I promised never
to tell a lie."
" Child," said the robber, ' art thou so
,e 11? J .
Mini'iiui ui my amy 10 tny mother at thy
years, and am I insensible at my age of the
duty I owe to God 1 Give me thy hand that
I may swear repentance on it." He did so,
and ids followers were all struck with the
scene.
"You have been our leader in guilt," they
said to the chief, " be the same in the path
of virtue," and they immediately made restitution
of their spoils, and vowed repentance
on the boy's hand
There is a moral in this story, which goes
beyond the direct influence of the mother on
the child. The noble sentiment infused into
the breast of the child is again transfused
from breast to breast, till thoso who felt it
know not whence it comes.
Faith.
Children, as well as grown up people,must
have faith in God. This they sometimes j
find difficult. We have met with the following
illnatrntion of the subject which we wish |
them to read. A gentleman, a minister of ;
Christ, went one day into a dark cellar, i
which was entered by a trap-door. A little
daughter, only throe years old, was trying to
find him, came to the trap door, but on looking
down all was dark, dark, and she called,
' Are you down cellar, papa ?"
44 Yes; would you like to come, Mary ?"
44 It is dark. I can't come, papa."
44 Well my daughter, I am right below you
and I can seo you, thongh you cannot see
me, and if you will drop yourself f will catch
you."
44 Oh, 1 should fall; I can't see you, papa." (
441 know it," he answered, 44 but I am |
really here, and you shall not fall or hurt ,
yourself. If you will jump, I will catch you <
safely.- M t
Little Mary strained her o. es to the ut- j
most, but she could catch no glimpse of her j i
father. She hesitated, then advanced a little ! 1
further, then suminoniug all her resolution, ' '
! she threw hnrself forward, and was received '
1 safely in her father's arms.
The minister thought this a fine iflustra- j
tion of faith in Cod. And so it is. You, |
I children, cannoi see vioit, but lie can see you.
I Ami ho calls you to him and says, " Thoso
! that seek me early shall find inc." Will you
I not seek him, in the exercise of a faith like
I that of the little girl, saying:
|" A guilty,weak, and helpless worm,
Into thine arms I fall;
j Be thou my strength, my righteousness,
I My Jesus and my All."

Plowing in Green Crops.
J This subject has been before fully treat- j
I oil, but in answer to P. S.. of Fairfield, j
I in relation to the plowing in of green i
corn, and its etlbets on the soil, we would i
l state that this, in common with all other :
I green crops, deposits in the surface-soil 1
j by its decay, two classes of substances; i
the chief bulk is organic matter obtained j
from the atmosphere, and the green crop
which will produce the greatest number ;
of tons to the acre, will secure the largest !
amount of this class of material, the chief 1
constituent of which is carbon, abstracted J
from the carbonic acid gas pervading the J
atmosphere and arising from the decay of
former vegetation. The next class of substances
are those usually denominated in- j
organic, and which often exist plentifully 1
in the sub-soil; these are received by the '
roots of plants and go to f?>rin parts of i
I their tops:?thus Lime, Soda, Potash,
I Magnesia, Phosphoric Aeid, Sulphuric
j Aeid, Clorine, ite., are all taken up by I
| thn roots of plants, and when green crops
are plowed under, these are deposited in I
the surface-soil, and in proper condition, i
j and suitable relative proportions for the j
; use ot crops winch are t<? follow. When j
tlie object to lie attained by the plowing
! in of preen crops is to increase the |
J amount of organic matter in the surfacesoil,
then clover, or buckwheat, or peas |
haulm, may bo used with groat advantage,
as these plants receive a very large <
! proportion of their constituents from the
atmosphere. When the object is to elc |
j vate the inorganic constituents, of the sub- j
soil and place then: in the surlace-soil,
then plants should be selected, the
the roots of which pass down to the grea- i
test depth, and the composition of which
necessarily contains largo proportions of
inorganic matter. Lucerne, Alfalfa, Clover,
and Indian Corn, are the green crops
for this peculiar property, and those should
be selected most su table to the soil intended
to be improved. Many, of the root
j crops may be used with advantage as a
green crop for plowing in: thus the Strapj
leaved lied Top Turnip, if sow n after
summer crops are taken from the ground,
will make partial growth before winter,
and will continue to grow later than most
other crops. They are not killed bv
w inter frosts, and w ill resume their growth
early in the spring, continuing with great |
rapidity up to the time the farmer may
he ready to plough his ground. Their I
power of growth may ho caused to '
cease by the application of a heavy roller j
crushing their crowns, and they may he [
plowed under, supplying t<> the surface.ill
>).? -
I ..v.., .... uiw Iin/U^nillt unniiuR'llts OI I lie
sul>soil which the turnip is capable of
taking up. Its amount of organic matter
is always large, while its rapid decay,
when placed beneath the surfaces of the.soil,
will assist early in vegetation of all kinds.
Green crops, as manures, can only j
| lie used with propriety when intended to |
I increase the organic matter of the soil in 1
localities where peat, muck, river mini, I
leaves from the woods, and other cheap i
| organic materials cannot readily be pro- i
cured; for where these abound, but few i
j loads, properly prepared, will furnish or- ,
ganic matter to the soil more cheaply 1
1 and in larger quantities, than would result
from plowing in of the heaviest green |
crops. Thoso who are curious on this I
subject, will find more minute accounts j
of the action of green crops and their re!- I
ative values with each other, in our for- j
mer volumes.
When the object is to elevate the inor-1
ganic. matter of the sulesoil, green crops
become necessary in localities where the
required inorganic constituents can be
cheaply added; wherever they abound
in any of the cheap forms, they may be '
added to the surface-soils with more economy
than the bringing up of similar ingredient,
from the sub-soil by deeper dis- j
integration, to be taken up by saleable j
crops, is always judicious, and the use of
green crops as manures is seldom called <
j for, where soils have been treated with a
strict view to their chemical composition.? ; i

| Tiik Riii'dard.?This excellent garden t ,
1 plant should be set in a rich soil, ami culli- ,
l vated with great assiduity. Stable manures : |
should be frequently strewn ibout each ,
root during the whole summer, to insure
' a luxuriant growth of stalks, which is the
! principal object of its cultivation. Theso

I to a very large, size, and are an excellent j j
' substitute for tho apple, tor pies, sauce,),

I and I find by shading them as much as ,
I possible from the sun, which may be done j
by sawing old barrels asunder and placing '
the halves about each plant, allowing the
leaves to protrude through the opening
at the top. I have seen a whole barrel, |
mjMiwsB una uouonuexs, completely filled .
with the long, stout stalks. The seed
stalk, which spiings up in the centre of
tho bunch, should be broken down as it f
being hollow and useless, and injuring the .
growth of the other stalks. The root of
the rhubarb (Rhenn's Palmatuni) con- j
contains medicinal properties, ami shotdd
bo cut up in strips and dried for use. A 8
learned botanical physician says,M it possesses
the proj)crty of contracting the animal
fibres, while it opcrntes as a thorough vi
cathartic; its operations, therefore, for weak- fr

lebility of the bowels, is very useful. In re

Ml should either raise or buy their own
oot and grate it, and then they will know
what they have. 1 have seen rotten, worm
iaten rhubarb ground up with a yellow
kind of riH>t, to give it color. The man
who was grinding it informed me that it
was for a wholesale dealer in drugs in a
neighboring city. There is much uncertainty
about all medicines that are ground.
Important to Planters.?It is stated
that adulteration in guano may easily be

pure guanuo burns to a white ash, the

Tricks of Animals,
In breaking or managing a horse, however
intractable or stubborn his temper
may bo, preserve your own. Almost every
fault the brute has, arises from ignorance.
He patient with him; teach and
coax him, and success in time is certain.
There are tricks, however, which are the
result of confirmed habit or vieiousness,
and these sometimes require a different
treatment. A horse accustomed to starting
and running away, maybe effectually
cured, by putting him to the top of his
speed on such occasions, and running till
pretty thoroughly exhausted.
A horse that had a trick of pulling his
bridle and breaking it, was at last reduced
to better habits by tying him tightly
to a stake driven on the bank of a steep
stream, with his tail pointing to the water;
lie commenced pulling at the halter,which
suddenly parted ; over the bank lie tumbled,
and after a somerset or two, and
floundering awhile fn the water, he was
satisfied to remain at his post in future,
and break 110 more bridles.
A rani has been cured of butting at
everything and everybody, by placing an
uniexisting cfligy in a similar position ;
the sudden assault on a wintry day then
resulted in tumbling his ramship into a
cold bath, which his improved manner
took good care to avoid in future.
A sheep killing dog has been made too
milch ashamed ever again to look a sheep
in the face, by tying his hind leg to a
stout rani on the brow of a hill, while the
dock were quietly feeding at the bottom.
The rain being free, aad in haste to rejoin

Tray so sadly over the stones and gullies,

"the beasts of the field and birds of the

will bring this into play, he will have no

habit in the dumb things by his su|?crior

Miss Thkimiina and Miss Trephosa,two
ancient ladies of virgin fame, formerly kept
a boarding house in the immediate vicinity
of the Crosby-street Medical College.?
They tonkin students, did their washing,
and to the best of their abilities, mended
their shirts and their morals. Miss Trepliina,
in spite of the numerous landmarks
which time had set upon her person, was
still of the sentimental order. She always
uresscu " uc jityueitr" in cerulean blue,?
and wore false ringlets and teeth (miserable
dicta /) of exceedingly doubtful extraction.
Miss Trephosa, her sister, was on
the contrary, an uncommonly "strong
minded" woman, lier appearance would
have been positively majestic, had it not
been for an unfortunate squint, which
went far to upset the dignified expression
of her countenance. She wore a fillet upon
her brows " a la O'ren/ue," and people
did say that her temper was as cross
is here)os. Hob Turner was a whole
soulcd Keutuckian, for whom his professional
guardian obtained lodgings 111 the
establishment presided over by these two
fascinating damsels. Somehow or other,
Hob and his hostesses did not keep on the
best of terms very long. Hob had no notion
of having his minutest actions submitted
to a surveilaneo as rigid as (in his
opinion) it was impertinent. One morning
a fellow student passing by at an early
hour, saw the Keutuckian, who was standing
upon the stops of the dragons' castle,
from which he had just emerged, take
from his pocket a slip of paper, and proceed
to aflix the same, with the aid of wafers,
to the street door. The student skulked
about the premises until Hob was out
of sight, and he could read without observation
the inscription placarded upon the
panel. It was as follows?we do not
vouch for its originality, although we
know nothing to the contrary :
'To let or to lease, for the term of her life,
