Xow the winter is here, it would perhaps be as well to discontinue haying and turn your attention to getting in 3*our fall saw-logs. No farmer can consider his fall crop complete until he has his cellar supplied with saw-logs. Seated around the biasing hearth ot a winter's night, there is no fruit more deli-1 ous. ' A correspondent asks us, what we think of lute plowing? Plowing should not be continued later tlinn 10 or 11 o'clock at liisrht. It gets the horses ill the habit of staving out late; anil unduly exposes the plow. AVe have known plows to acquire string-halt and inflammatory eheutasui from late plowing. Don't do it. To another correspondent who wants us to suggest a good drain upon a farm, we would say, a heavy mortgage at ten per cent, will drain it about as rapidly as anything we know of. When you make -eider select nothing but the soundest turnips, chopping them into sled lengths liefore cradling them. In boiling your cider use plenty of ice, and " when boiled, hang up in the sun to dry. r A pick-axe should never be used in picking apples. It has atendeu,f cy to break down the vines and ' damage the hive.

Speculating Safely. 5 s One of the favorite methods oi 1 speculating of the Kothschilds in ante-telegraph days was to notify ? their well-known brokers to sell ?i i certain stock or security. Every j. body on the Exchange would U aware the}- were selling, and as , thev invariably had the earliest in1 . . ill formation, their acnon wousu navt L .i very depressing influence on the "J market. The simple announcement The Kotlischilds are selling," let c]ic security be what it might. - would put down tlic particular ser eurity from two to live per cent. After the dccliuc the brokers would i instruct their secret agents to buy it the reduced price; and the security, suddenly discovered to be , <ound, would mount to its old or r perhaps to a still higher figure. They also set rumors alioat, as the hulls and bears of "Wall street J do, to put down what they wish to buy, or put up what they wanted to *' sell; and having executed their ' purpose, the good or had news of " their invention would fail to he confirmed. They have persistently de1 nied that they were ever stock-jobbers, though it would he hard to tell ?: what they are if they are not such, r They have never been desperate I gamblers on the Exchange?they ? are too cool and acute for that? | they have never taken great risks, : but they have arranged their programme with all the chances on their side, and carried out the pro^ gramme to their entire advantage. i Pluck.?The hopelessness of any , one's accomplishing anything with-1 . out pluck is illustrated by an East , [ndia fable. A mouse that dwelt near the abode of a great 'magician was kept in such constant distress by its fear of a cat, that the magician, taking pity 011 it, turned it into a cat Immediately it began to sutler from irs fear of a dog, so the magician turned it into a dog. Then it began to suiter from the fear of a tiger, and the magician turned it into a tiger. Then it began to Slitter from fear of a huntsman, and the magician in disgust said."Be a mouse again. As yon have only the heart of a mouse, it is impossible to help you by giving you the body of a nobler animal." And the poor creature again became a mouse. It is the same with1 mouse-hearted man. He may be clothed with the powers, and placed in the position of brave men, but he. will always act like a mouse; the- -public opinion is usually the great magician that finally says to 'uv.i1 a jjuiouu, " uu i<j > vuii obscurity agaiir. * You have only the heart of a mouse, and it is use-1 P less to try to make a lion of you." ! Mourning.?The usages regardk ing mourningluivo varied much at . diifesent limes and in different countries. Among the Jews, the , duration of mourning for the dead was generally seven*days, but sometimes protracted to thirjty, It consisted iu tearing the clothes, smiting ; the breast, weeping, going barefoot, i cutting off the hair, etc., etc., etc. t Among the Greeks, the period oi ' mourning was thirty days, except jii ? Sparta, where it was limited to ten. , Among the Romans, the color ol I mourning for both sexes, was black t or blue, under the republic; but , under the empire, tho men only wore black, the women white. Men also wore this mourning a few days, women a year, wlien the relation was a very near one. In modern Europe the ordinary color for mourning is black; in Turkey, violet; in China, white; in Egypt, yellow; in Ethiopia, brown. In Arabia the men wear uo mourning. The women etaiu their hands and tect with indigo, which they 'suffer to remain lor eight days, during which time they abstain from milk, 011 the ground that its color ill becomes their gloom. In the Feejee islands, after the death of a chief, a general fast until evening, is observed for ten or twenty days, the women burn their bodies, and fifty or one hundred fingers are amputated to hang above the dead man's tomb.
