Life has two ages :
The silver and golden; j,
A book with two pages,
A new and an olden.

Now stands before me j
A little child, passing fair;
Laughing eyes, full of glee,
Peach cheeks and golden hair. I
(
She thinks life all it seems,
And for months, days and hours
She grasps the sunbeams, 1
Aud gathers Life's fairest flowers. f
Near to that goiden head *
Silver is shiniDg, I
With lustre passing rare ; V
Age is refining. a
There thev are, youth and age.
Long hours beguiling i:
With stories and maxims sage,
Talking and smiling.

The new and the olden,
The beautiful pages,

Farmhouse Notes.
Potato Muffins.?One pint of milk, _
six large potatoes mashed, one egg, one .
desert spoonful of butter, and about one 1
gill of sweet milk. 1
Cutting up Corn.?Unless it is in h
tended to husk the corn from the stand- n
ing rows, the work of cutting and stock- d
ing, if not already concluded, should be ^
finished as early as possible. e
Cribbing Corn.?If the corn is sound,
dry, and hard, it may be kept in a large ..
crib, but if somewhat soft it will be
necessary to take some pains to keep it *1
from moulding. The narrower the crib
the better, and it is well to make some a
chimneys in the corn with boards. Soft ,,
corn should be spread out on the floor to
dry, and l>e turned occasionally. Feed 0
it out at once. It is better for cows and p
cattle than for fattening pigs. ^ n
Almond Pudding.? Half a pound of a
blanched almonds, four ounces of white ^
sugar, six tablespoon fuls of rose water,
halt a pint ot sweet cream, three eggs, a
little grated lemon-peel. Put the almonds a
in a mortar and put a few spoonfuls of p
supar on them, and rub them fine, then fj
add the msewater, beat the remaining ,
sugar, and the eggs together separate,
and then add them to the mixture in the h
mortar. When at? are well mixed, warm
a little, then put a little crust around p
the edges or sides, and bake half an ^
hour. ^
Husking.?In our own case we find it S1
it far cheaper to have corn husked by 1"
the bushel than by the day. We usually s'
pay from four to six cents a bushel of
' ears, depending on the quality of the e<
corn. Last year we paid six cents. ^
This year the corn is so much larger and
better ripened that the husker can make s<
more at five cents than he could last
year at six. Wo say "he,"but in point o
of fact this work is often done by a]
women, or by a man who has a wife
and child to help him. It is often with
us cheaper to have it husked on shares.;
A correspondent of the Agriculturist in o(
Wisconsin speaks of paying one-third j m
the crop for husking. We often get the 3(
work done for one-seventh or one-eighth. J ""
That is to say the husker takes one bush- n
el and leaves us seven. When corn is i fr
cheap it is generally better to have it a
husked on shares. See that the corn is s(
husked clean, and that the stalks are ,
tied up properly.?Agriculturist.
Farming.?The Rural Home cites the
tollowing as among the practices which v
make farming unprofitable: Raising tl
and feeding poor breeds of stock which b
consume as much food, require as much w
care us good ones, and finallv sell for TJ
1 cl li: - a. -3 i 13
icsb ujuuey. otiuag coarse grain, instead j
of feeding it with straw and bay, thereby 0
decreasing the profit of feeding the j n
latter, and diminishing the fertility of j g(
the farm. Growing special crops that
require all the mannre the farm can make ! 0
on a small area, and demand labor which h
should be bestowed on the legitimate b
branches of farming. If special crops ^
are grown they should be manured with ;
purchased fertilizers, and enough labor v
be employed so no other farm crop will t<
be neglected. Special crops, as they are h
termed, are out of place on ordinary
farms. Letting the land get full of
weeds which makes the cultivation more p'
costly, and abstracts fertility which the b
crops need. Neglecting the shelter ot T
tools and making timely repairs to buildings.
They will decay and render it
necessary to employ more capital to re- a
> new them, thereby further dividing c
profits. Not having a well matured | *
system of cropping. Neglect in expend-1
iDg money in needed and paying improvements.

The Death or W. II. Seward.?The r

Department of State. ) n
Washington, D. C., October 11,1872. j" 0
The undersigned is charg?d by the a
President with the uainful dutv of an-1 a
nouncing to the people of the United *
States the death of an illustrious citizen tl
William Henry Seward, distinguished e
for faithful and eminent service in varied a
public trusts during a long series of g
years, died at Auburn, in the State of h
New York, yesterday, October 10. o
Charged with the administration of tho e
Department of State 'at a most critical v
period in the history of the nation, Mr.
Seward brought to the duties of that of
fice exalted patriotism, unwearied industry,
and consummate ability. A grateful
nation will cherish his name, his
fame, and his memory. The several ex- ?
ecutive departments will cause appro,
priato honors to be rendered to the ^
memorv of the deceased statesman at ?
home and abroad.

A Strong Hold.?Quebec is the most a
stronglv fortified citv in Canada. It is i q
entered only through massive gateways ^
?which are being moved, however, be- y
cause thev impede travel?and the main
fortifications are entered by a devious
way, the sides of which are compact *
granite, twentv to thirty feet high, everv Jn
turn in which is swept by batteries of the <
heaviest calibre. The walls could not fl
be sealed, for that is impossible ; neither 5
could the citadel be entered bvthe ordi- 1
narv wav, if properly defended, for that j
wonld be impossible too; but few shells (
conld be throwi into the citadel from ]
the liver, for t'te angle and distance are <
both too great, nothing, indeed, but a 1
siege or a mastery strategy could possi- (
bly capture the place, neither of which 3
is an admitted possibility by the few red i
coats who garrison the fortress. '
The California Pike.
"The true ' Pike,' ?n the Californian
ense of the word, is the wandering gypy-like
southern-poof white. This peron
often lives with his family in a wagon;
le rarely follows any steady industry;
le is frequently a squatter on other peo>le'8
lands ; 'he owns a rifle, a lot of
ihildren and dogs, a wife, and, if he can
ead, a law book,' said a lawyer describng
this character to me; 'he moves
rom place to place, as the humor seizes
urn, and is generally an injury to his
leighbors. He will not work regularly ;
>ut he has great tenacity of life, and is
Iways ready for a lawsuit.'
' ' I found a Pike the other day killng
and salting hogs, and actually haulng
the salt pork off to sell it,' said a
gentleman in whose company we were
liscussing these people.
Certainly' that was an industrious
'ike,' said I.
" ' Yes, but confound it, they were my
iogs,' he ttplied, with natural wrath.
" Near San Diego a Pike family were
ointed out to me who had removed
rem Texas to California, and back to
'exas four times. They were now going
ack home again to please ' the old woian,'
who, it seems, had an old wagon

ight montks on the road. Of course
aey lived off the country, and probably
v jd as well on their travels as when
aey were settled.
" You are told endless droll stcries
bout these Pikes. In one county in
ais state, which contains a large number
f them, some San Franciscans who owt
roperty there desired to help the people
lake certain improvements. They called
meeting by public printed notice, to
e held at the school-house, in a district
ontaining about two thousand inhabitnts.
A few days after this notice was
ut up, one of its signers received a note
om a lawyer telling him that a mistake
ad been made in the call, as the district
ad no school-house.
"'Very well,' said the amazed San
'ranciscan, 'we will build them a schoolouse;
it will improve our property.'
'ou xjiust know that California is as well
applied with schools as a New England
tate.
" But to this the leading Pikes object3
when it was proposed, on the ground
rat the ringing of a school-house bell
;ares all the'deer away.
" 'As soon as he hears a piano,' said an
Id resident to me, 'the Pike sells out
ad moves away."
Pleasant Discoveries.?Diamonds are
ccasionally found, in the African dialond
field, on the earth's surface. The
>il is sandy, or covered by a layer of
ither coarse gravel. After digging about
>ur feet the diamond seeker usually finds
layer of lime, or something closely rejmbling
it, which, when first exposed to
ie air, is hard as a rock, and it soinemes
takes three days to get through a
ein of it. The voin is usually about
iree or four feet in thickness, but after
eing exposed to the air or the action ot
'ater, crumbles and i9 easily removed,
ieneath it lies a bed ot red gravel, from
ne to three teet. in thickness, in which a
lajoritv of diamonds are found, although
:>rae large and unsually fine ones are ocasionallv
taken out of the soil below.
Inbies, garnets and a greenish stone closer
resembling the emerald are also found
i profusion in the red gravel, but are
alneless from the fact that they appear

eat, which has scorched and cracked
liem, so that, although large ones are
ometirnes taken out, they may be rolled
etween the hands and broken to pieces,
he diamonds are neither incrusted with
irt or surrounded by stone when found,
s many persons appear to believe, but
ome out bright and clear as drops of
rater.
Abottt Jewelry.?Cameos, which are
ver popular with the ladies, take anunsual
high stand this season, combining
are stones with exquisite workmanship.
nd elegant settings. Stones adapted
r>r cameo-cutting are dense, thick, and
onsist of different colors. The stones
lost valuable for this purpose are the
riental onyx and th? sardonyx. They
re also cut in jasper, green chrysoprase,
nd amethyst. The sardonyx gives the
rhite figure upon the pink ground, and
he chrysoprase upon the green. Minrvas,
cut in stone which has four parllel
layers, are very beautiful. The
round is dark gray. the face light, the !
?nst and helmet black, and the crest
ver the helmet brown. Cameos cut in
oral. set in diamonds and pearls, are
cry elegant.
To Cure Fet.oxs.?Too many persons
offer extremely from felons on the finger,
'hese afflictions are not onlv very painnl,
hot freqnentlv occasion permanent
rippling of the member affected. The
blowing simple prescription is recomnended

How to Collect Debts.?A man has
>een held for trial in Philadelphia for
dopting a new way of collecting old
lehts. He is a collector of such by profession
and generally gets 50 per cent, of the
mms collected. He calls upon the deinqnent
creditors with a badge of his
profession conspiciously displayed on
lis hat in the shape of a sign of considerable
size. Of course the effect is to
let all lookers on know that the party
jailed on neglects his little bills, and is
therefore not to be trusted. An irate
doctor who received the collector's inconvenient
attentions has had him arrested
because he attracted a crowd, and
as the doctor claims, " incited a breach
of the peace."
Too La to for Explanation.
Lord Mark Kerr, who distinguished
himself at the battle of Fontenoy, was 1?
a good but eccentric officer, aDd a terri- 91
ble duelist His debut was remarkable.
He was a lad of spirit. His father, the w
Marquis of Lothain, when he brought 81
him to London to join his regiment?the ^
Coldstream Guards?requested the Col- cc
onel, who was his particular friend,,to
watch over him, and see that he submit- sc
ted to no improper liberties, and to in- ^
struct him in the way he should go, in to
case he had the misfortune to be in- nl
suited. b(
Those were the days of hard drinking cc
" prodigious swearing," and brutal man- to
ners. This pacific young scion of nobility
soon became a butt at mess, a P<
stop-peg to hang practical jokes on, un- 8E
til at last a captain of a year's standing
threw a glass of wine in his face. He P'
still said nothing, but wiped his face
with his handkerchief, and took no further
notice of the insult he had re- P*
ceived. ^i
The Colonol thought it was high time fc1
to interfere, and invited him to break- ^h
fast tete-a-tete, on the following morning
at 9 o'clock. Lord Mark arrived punctually,
ate his breakfast w'th perfect a<
composure, and spoke but little. At eT
length the commanding officer broke c0
ground. R?
"Lord Mark," said he, "I must speak ^
to you on rather a delicate subject, but, m'
as your father's friend, I am compelled
to waive ceremony. Captain L , wi
yesterday morning, publicly passed an
affront on you, which both your honor c0
and the credit of your regiment require ad
you to notice." . 18
" What do you think, sir, I ought to
do ?" inquired Lord Mark. w<
" Call on him for an explanation," re- nc
joined the Colonel. 1,r
" Jt is, I fear, too late for that," replied
the young ensign, " I 6hot him at re
eight this morning, and if you take the
trouble to look out of the front window, P1
you will see him?on a shatter." m

T1
Potato Crop.?If accounts which ^
come to us be correct?and there is no
reason to think otherwise?the people ^
of Great Britain and Ireland are not to ^
be the only sufferers from potato blight. ^
The Presque Isle (Me.) Sunrise learns,
on what it claims to be good authority,
that potatoes are rotting very rapidly 10
this year. When dug they look quite
healthy, but if allowed to remain a week ^
or more without being used, the rot sets
in and destroys them. The experience
of one farmer is particularly discourag- ^
ing. He had his entire crop placed ^
upon a dry cellar floor, expecting that
the supply would last him until next
season. In a couple of weeks, more ^
than half the number of bushels stored ,,
away had to be removed, the potatoes |Q
having rotted so as to be unfit even for ^
hogs. If the crop in the other States be
similarly affected the prices will be large- fr(
ly increased this winter, so that con- gfc
sumers in cities will have either to pay ^
the advance, or content themselves alto- ^
gether with sweet potatoes. The prospect
is certainly not very cheerful, but
the housekeepers cannot prepare too w.
soon to meet the emergency.
a
The Mississippi Filling dp.?It Wi
would be a calamity to have the naviga- ar
tion of the Mississippi River interrupted. 0(;
The internal commerce of the river is B;
probably greater than the foreign com- ag
ruerce of New York and Boston combin- ca
ed. But the bed of the river is rapidly ya
filling up from the sediment brought in
down from tributary streams, and there
is danger that in the low water of summer,
navigation may be difficult or im- 0f
possible. In 1856 it was found that the m
bed had risen from this cause two feet ^
and three inches in ten years. An ex- je
animation this year showed more alarming
results. In the last nine years it has jn
rijen three feet and four inches. It is ^
thought that the freshets on the tribu- '
tary streams of the north-west bring
down a vast quantity of particles of
tough clay, and these mixing with the 8j.
sand make a solid mass, which will not g
wash away. The States along the river,
or the national government, will be ^
obliged to dredge the channel to keep cf
it navigable in low water, cy

A Sad Story. ?Another sad story of m
the sea is related. Out of a crew of y<
about thirty, only one remains to tell pi
the melancholy tale. ' The ship was the y<
Newcastle, which sailed from Liverpool, m
I for Havana, on the 6th nit., under the tc
command of Capt. Wilkins, and was Ts
wrecked off Tuskar while passing down L
the Channel. The crew took to the re
boats when the vessel struck, but these fi
were capsized and the men drowned, cl
with the exception of John Berry. This
man supported himself on a piece of C
I wreck for three days, when he was pick- o
' ed up by the steamer Castiliau, on her 7
way to Lisbt n. During three nights and
nearly fuur days he had no food, and \
the only means he had of quenching his ^
thirst was applying his tongue to a 7
rusty piece of iron on the wreck which a]

ed in Liverpool. it
Was he Drunk ??A singular legal o
contest has been inaugurated in the ^
courts at Washington, D. C., to recover
possession of certain real estate deeded Q
: by a man who alleges that he was mar- ^
ried while drunk and conveyed his prop s1
erty to his wife under the same circumstances.
When the case first came on ?
in the Equity Court it was referred to a Q
jury to determine the facts; first, what ^
was the condition of the plaintiff at the ^
time of executing the instrument? and ^
second, was undue influence used to procure
the execution of said instrument?
The jury found for plaintiff in
both these particulars, whereupon the a
District Supreme Court has set aside the *
deed. An appeal to the United States ^
Supreme Court has been taken. u
Chinese Cheap Labor.
The Memphis Appeal gives the folding
example of Chinese industry and
iccese:
Two years ago a number of Chinese
rived at our wharf and were objects of
reat curiosity. Some of these men set
ed near here, and among them a small
>lony found homes and cotton picking
i the neighborhood of Marion, Ark.,
ime nine or ten miles from this city,
mong them was Ah Maun, who proved
i be a Chinese of education, gathered
3 some knowledge of English rapidly,
jcame popular, and was called by the
>untry people John Ormond. He set
work at once. The first day his cotn
picking amounted to twenty-two
>unds. The negroes laughed at the
nail specimen with a pig-t%l under his
it. In one year not a negro on the
antation could briDg as much cotton
the gin house as Ah Maun. Ah Maun
ok his triumph quietly, and kept his
ipularity. Last Spring be and six of
s fellow countrymen rented a piece of
ound near Marion. Twenty acres
ey put in corn and forty in cotton,
iven times was the ground plowed
er, until it was in complete order for
;rop. Every bit of grass was obliterated,
ery weed exterminated, every fence
rner made clean. The five men had
(pointed Ah Maun "boss," and Ah
aun allowed no slovenly ways. Early
orn and dewy eve saw the six Chinese
their tasks. Patient, plodding, unvaried
industry that never lost heart,
iver intermitted, brought a crop of
rn and another of cotton that are the
miration of Crittenden County. It
visited and gazed at as a wonder of
ill, industry and success. Another
indcr was that Ah Maun and his men
>t only knew no such word as fail,
it they knew no such English as
lick;" well they were and well thev
mained through heat and cold, and
^amp fogs and chilly mornings When
eking time came Ah Maun hired four
ore of his compatriots, and all the
ar the ten are busy as ants. On
mrsday they sent two bales of cotton
the city. It was received by Keel
Co.. and Mr. Keel says two better
iles of well grown, clearly picked cotn
he had not seen this year. Ah
aun's energy and skill, and that of
8 hard working companions, are ad*
ired, and we hear it said that if the
oup choose to break np next Spring,
king new farms and joining with
em new hands, they will be liberally
ded, and such money and supplies
may be necessary will not be with
>ld. Ah Maun is triumphant, the
bite folks regard him as a prodigy.
Harrt Bassett Badly Beaten.?Har
Bassett, after having won the title
King of the Turf," has, like Longfelw,
come to grief, being badly beaten
Jerome Park in a four mile dash by
'onarchist. Immense sums were wa>red
on the result, the odds being
rongly in favor of Bassett. Everybody

Who Can Vote.?"I have been a
tizen of the United States for the last
xteen years says a correspondent,
aving recently removed from the State
New Jersey,- I have been informed
iat T will be denied the privilege of reading
a vote for the favorite of my
101'ce at the forthcoming Presidential
ection. Kindly oblige by informing
e if such is really the case ?" Answer,
3ur removal into another State derives
you of the right of voting until
)n have conformed with the arrangeent.s
of whatever State yon remove in?.
For instance, in the States of Rhode
iland,Virginia,South Carolina, Florida,

erritory of New Mexico, one year's redence
is necessary, fn New Hampshire,
rkansas, Tennessee, Iowa, Indiana,
fmnesota, Kansas, California, and the
ervitory of Oregon, six months is the
Hotted term; while in Maine andMichian,
a residence of only three months is
jsisted on.
Rewarded.?4 remarkable instance
f the reward that is said to follow good
stions is the following: Forty-five
ears ago Mr. B. T. Hanley, a merchant
f Cincinnati, failed in bnsiness, but
as assisted to engage ^n it again by a
Granger named Mr. S. Davis. Shortly
fter this Mr. Hanley's place of bnsiness
'as burnt to the ground, and Mr. Davis
gain advanced him money, with which
e left the city and went to seek his fornne.
He is now reported to be dying

alued at 83,000,000, to Mr. Davis.
Put not your faith in him who predicts

Revolt.?A Republican revolt broke
out at the Spanish arsenal of Ferrol, in
the province of Corunna. Fifteen hundred
men belonging to the arsenal, together
with a portion of the naval Coast
Guard and some of the population, joined
the revolt, led by Montigo and Rosar.
The Government despatched forces to
quell the disturbance, but the insurgents
had seized the gun boat in the harbor,
took possessien of the light house, and
so closed the port that Government reinforcements
cannot reach the place by
sea. In the Cortes the Alphonsista and
Republicans disavowed all complicity in
the movement, and declared their sympathy
with the Government. .

Editorial Notices are so common that
it is almost impossible for an editor to express
his honest opinion of the merits of
an article without being suspected of
interested motives. This fact, however,
shall not deter us from saying what we
think of a new addition to the Materia
Medica to which our attention has been
recently directed. We refer to Dr. J.
Walker's California Vinegar Bitters,
a remedy wihch is making its way into
more families jnst now than all the other
advertised medicines put together. Its
popularity, as far as we can judge, is not
based on empty pretention. There seems
to be no question about the potency of
its tonic and alternative properties, while
so contains the great negative recommendation
of containing neither alcohol nor
mineral poison. Thrt it is a specific for
fndige9tion, Biliousness. Consumption,
and many other complaints of nervous
origin, we have reason to know; and we
are assured on good authority that as a
general invigorant, regulating and' purifying
medicine, it has no equal. It is
stated that its ingredients (obtained from
the wilds of California), are new to the
medical world; and its extraordinary
effects certainly warrant tne conclusion
that it is a compound of agents hitherto
nnknown. If popularity is any criterion,
there can be no doubt of the efficiency of
the Vinegar Bitters, for the sale of the
article is immense and continually increasing.?

the chemistry of the hair and tb<? philosophy of its
growth thinks of using them. Instead of clogeing
the pores of the scalp with thick onguents. and thus
. obstructing the inseusibie perspiration which is essential
to the health of the fibres, we now tone the
surface of the head with an invigorating application
which penetrates to the roots of the hair and stimulates
them in the same way that the fertilizing ag nts
spread over the meadow stimulate the grass rooti
and cause the b'ades to spring up in myriads, coating
the e-rth with verdure. The invlgorant besl
adapted to this purpose is Lyon's Kathaibon It
may well bo called the fertilizer of the head. To the
barren scalp it communicatee vegetative power II

it arrests the process of dilapidation or blight,
The hair thickens and becomes glossy and flexible
under its genial operation, and as a dressing it i(
unapproaclied by any preparation that has yet beet
laid on the toilet of fashion.

Physical infirmities are the lot of all. Million* an
always sick. No man, woman or child is uniformly it

J suffering which render life a burden to so many of om
fellow beings, is due to carelessness and neglect, i
mighty antidote to the leading causes of disease ha
been provided. It is as harmless as it is efficient. N(
poi?onons drug enters into its composition. It is si
undefiled stimulant, tonic and aperient, of which ever;
ingredient is vegetable. This unexceptionable prevent
ive and restorative medicine is not "a new thing undei
the sun." Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will soon hav<
been before the world a quarter of a century, and it ii
not too much to aver that thousands, aye, tens of thon
sands, are now nsing it who would have been in thei
graves years ago had they not been strengthened sn<
I sustained by this wholesale stimulant. The rapidit;
with which minor ailments often become, when neglect
ed. obstinate disea**n, is well known. This tonio is fa
raous for the immediate check which it give* to them
, breeders of deadly disorders. The sensation of languor
the sick headache, the nervousness, the indisposition t<
exertion, the nausea, the oonfusion of brain, the physi
cal debility, w^ich are intended to promoniah as of th<
approach ef serious danger are invariably removed by i
