\ i.yAj ?? . ? M - ? I ~i?..*.n I . ^tf?M Ii.?<?3l?.... A Strange Story. Two sisters had been for some days attending their brother, who wefc Buffering from a oounnon sore throat, sevoro and pro ti-actedj but not considered dangerous. At tiijs time on? of ths sinters had obtained the loan ot n watch from a friend, her own l>oing out of repair. As this watch was a kind of heirloom m the family from which It had l>ceo borrowed, particular caution was given fesf it should meet with soino injury. Doth t istem slept iis a room adjoining that of the brother'^ and. ono night the cidor awokotlie younger in extreme alarm, and told her sbe had dreamed that " Mary's watch had sloped!," nip] that when she had told her of it. she had replied, " Much t^wse than Unit has hapjHMied, for Charles' breath lmd stopj>ed also.". To quiet her agitation, the younger immediately arose, proceeded to her hrolhI cr's room, fouud him hint asleep, and tlio watch carefully put away in a drawer, going correctly. The following night tlio wuio dicnm occurred, accompanied by the same agitation, and quieted in the samo manner ?tlio brother being Round asleep, and the watch going. In ihu *w?mning after breakfast, ftomeof these ladies having occasion to write a note, proceeded to her desk, while the other raL with the biolbcr in an adjoining room. Having written and folded the note, she was proceeding to Like out the watch which was now iu the desk, to use one of tlio seals appended to it, when she was astonished to find it had stopped, and at the same time a scream from her sister hurried her to the bedsido of her brother, who, to her grief, had just breathed his lust. The disoa-so was coDRidored to l>c progressing favorably, when lie was Roized with a sudden M>asin. and died of Rtiflocntion. Tho coincidence between the stopping of the watch and the death of the brother, is the most perplexing circumstance of tho case, since tho more stoppage of the watch, or the death of the brother, might have l>ccn explained on very ratioual principles; or had the watch stopj>ed boforo or after the death of the brother, it might have been easily supposed to bo forgotten to bo wound up, or it may have suffered some injury from the hurry and trepidation incidental to anguish hikI bereavement; but as the case is related, it is certainty a most extraordinary, surprising, and mysterious accident.

Keep his company, walk with him, dance with him, go to theatres, balls, and conceits with hiiu?talk, laugh, and flirt with him, fallitl jjove with him?but don't inhuire into his private character, because it might bo rather?ahem! What is it to you whether he is as pure as a saint, or as impure as an imp, so long as lie is a ploasant companion, an agreeable uuKer, or a nnncisomo, iascmatmg Iellow (?

He leaves you at length to personate the same character on another Htage, wlulo you ilattcr yourself, that ho is a mast devoted, constant lover. Well, no doubt you are right Hotter for your peace of mind that you do not inquire into hu true character.?True Flay. Poverty.?.Start not at tho labor doom of 1 ton eat poverty. To it wo arc indebtod for the discovery of a new world: it made Franklin a Philosopher, Hogarth a painter, and Napoleon the conqueror of ?uro{>e; the mightiest minds that ever astonished tho civilized world, were nursed in the vale of poverty ; that was their incentive to act, their atimulous to glory and immortality. Pino not, tlien, at your lot, if you be poor and virtuous; a large fortune to a giddy youth is the most painful judgement, an indulgent heaven can mflict upon man. Tho inordinate love of wealth, so fatally prevalent in modern times, whon, with a great majority riches are n test of respectability, and cash - a token of worth and virtue, a cloak to < screen from crime?is worse than famine, more fiital than the fustcriug folds to the purplo pcstilehco.

It grows best, however, on n light j alluvial soil: The middle sized varieties of the vegetable are generally preferred for cooking purposes; and when served up to the table nicely cooked and seasoned witty salt, |K'i?|Hjr, ?ton fcw vegetables arc more healthful or agreeable the imlate. The tomato should bo largely cultivated by our farmers, both as a home comfort, and as profitable source of income. The value of I the fruit may be much increased by culture.

The best method of perscrving tomatoes, is to trout- them, after being cooked and seasoned and while vet hot, either into tin cans, through a small hole in the topofllio can, or into glass bottles. Then if the opening lx* quickly closed up and tighly scaled, tboy will remain good any length of time. The size of the cans should bo proportionate to tlici size of the family, so that when one is opened the contents may he used beforo tlrey begin to spoil. A* Exckli.knt Pi,an for Orowino Cucumbers.?We clip tho following from anchange. We liave tried tho same plan and proved ita excellence: Take a large barrel, or hogshead ; saw it I in two in tho middle, and bury each half in the ground even with tho ton. Then take I a small kog and bore a small Lolo in tbo l>ot| torn ; place tbo keg in tbo centre of tbo barrel, tbo top even with tbo ground, and fill in tbo barrel around tbo keg with rich cartb, suitable for tlie growth of cucumbers. Plant votir seed mid-way between tho edges of tbo barrel and tho keg, and make a kind of arbor a foot or two high for the vines to run on. When the ground becomes dry, pour water | in the keg in the evening?it will pass out at tbo bottom of tho kog into the barrel and ri.ee up to the roots of tbo vines, and keep them moist and groen. Cucumbers cultivated tbis way will grow to a great sire, as tljey are made independent both of drought and wet weather. In wet weather the barrel can be covered, and in dry tho ground can bo kept moist by pouring water in the keg.

Tlio great- i I cr portion of hfs life was spent in Orecnvillo District, as his father, David Goodlett, removed, when lie tva? very young, to the placo j now belonging to Dr. Crittenden, within two miles of the town of Greenville.

' ? Mnj. Goodlett was long a member of tlio Baptist Chureli; liis usual place at Milford will know him no more forever, nnd his brethren nnd sisters will loug mourn his removal ; but they have the never-ending consolation that lie nas been removed from cnrtli to the church nnd congregation of the first boru in the Lord, on high. As a citizen and neighbor, none was more useful and kind. His intelligence enabled him toscrvc those around him in all the relations of physician, counccllor nnd friend.? Much of the eminently kind and orderly character of the neighborhood around Milford, is to be attributed to him. Ilis example was ono ofjusticc, love, mercy and good works, nnd it could not, nnd did not, fail of its proper effect. Not only* to his friends, but even to his enemies, {if he had any,) he was kind. To tho poor ho oxtended aid, as far as liis dutv to bis numerous familv seemed to justify. Maj Goodlett was twico married. By his first wife he had eight, and l?y his second soven children. These, with his mourning'widow survive him. To his family lie was all in alt. Husband, father, master, ho was all which affection or duty could demand.? Their loss is indeed great, irreparably so far as earth is concerned: still a friend, and brother in the Gospel, would say, weep not boloved friends, "lie is not dead, ho only sleepeth," in the fulness of tlmo ho will be found witli his Lord and Master, arrayed in tho garments of everlasting praise, and crowned with a crown of immortal and unfading glory.
