"A Little Land Well Tillod."
Farmers are liable to err in cultivating
too much land. They make their calcu
lations to sow and plant so many acres,
without taking into account the quantity
of manure they have to apply, or the
amount of labor they can bestow. This
not only subjects them to much haste and
inconvenience, but their crops are not
cultivated as they otherwise would be, and
the land is not left in so good a condition
when it is laid down to grass. There is
still greater folly on the part of some, in
the desi-- increase their estates by the
pu-- uore land, when their sys

the poisonous hue of the green and crim

children. People, of education or dis

IRISH MACHINE POETRY.
J0m Dodge married old Judy Rouse
Och she was a charming young bride;
With turf he then built a brick house,
And the front door was on the back side.
The roof it was tiled with straw,
The cellar was on the first floor,
And the chirnney, in order to draw,
Was built just outside the door.
A beggar was Teddy Malone,
IiS sister was his only brother!
Ile had notling at all of his own,
Except what belonged to his mother.
One night Teddy says to the squire,
I'm so cold, give me something to eat,
I'm so dry, let me set by the fire,
And so hungry, I must warm my feet.
"Och! honey," one day says Pat Twigg,
For he was a scandalous glutton,
"To-morrow I'll kill myfat pig,
For I'm sure he'll make ilegant mutton."
So then he goes into the'hovel,
And hangs the pig up by the heel,
So nate cut his throat with a shovel,
Saying this is the way to dress veal!

and cried " booh !" the colt threw him off.
The rider picked hinself 'up soon, how

ONE WAY To GET B1,.-A rummer,
who occasionally used tote short of the
'chink,' had recourse to the following ex
pedient to'raise the wind.' He got two
pint bottles, exactly alike, one in each
pocket, lie entered the groggery and called
for a pint of gin. The bottle vas filled
and handed to him, when fe p4 it in his
pocket, at the same time tellingKthe land

the landlord. If' you won't then there's no
harm done, added the other, reluctantly
p ulling the bottle of water from hi.< pock
et and handing it over', it was quickly
emnptiedl into the eask. There wasn't
mueh harm done to the landlord, that's a
fact. for although rummrey had had this
hatile of gin, the same niumber of pints
were drawn from the cask.

A True Story or Human Nature.
There once lived in a small town in
Massachusetts an old Indian woman.
Somehow or other the old woman had
accumulated quite a desirable little pro.
perty. Yet she was an Indian, and was
treated with cool contempt by her neigh
bors. She had not set in the social cir
cle, received no attention from those
around her, occupied a back pew in the
church, and down towards the grave she
travelled, without friend or comforter.
Old Nance had but one relative living
that she know of, and he a wild, grace
less son. le was the terror of the vil.
lage, and spent his time in any thing byt.
a respectable way. At last the vagabon
so worried the forbearance of his o
mother, that in a hasty moment she re
solved to disinherit him and leave her mon
ey to the church.
Accordingly she started for the house
of one of the deacons, and made a clean
breast of her troubles, and acquainted
him with her determination. The deacon
grew from a cool to a very amiable mood
as she proceeded, and at least became
profuse in his expressions of gratitude.
The will, through the agency of the
deacon, was drawn ; but the old woman,
feeling a littlecompunction had a clause
inserted which should make it void, pro
vided the son should totally reform his
habits. Secrecy was enjoined upon the
deacon, who of course told nobody but
his wife; who of course said.nothing about
it save to one or two friends, who of
course spread it all over the village in the
space of one day.
But the change wrought in the situation
of old Nance was miraculous. "Such a
good old woman'." The nice bits from
the best tibles begau to journey under
neat napkins to -her humble abode. On
a rainy Sabbd'i, Wiaiago took her up
at her door,- ifd carried her to church,
where she was kindly favored with a front
pew near the speaker, and near the stove.
Her praise was in every body's mouth,
and her tottering f6rm commanded res
pect every where. But she thrived remark
ably under this treatment, and lived, and
lived. In the mean- time the son was
loolted upon witliInore than usual dis
trust; ind'tie poor. widiw was deeply
commisserated on his disgraceful course.
Years jiassed away, and the kind at
tentions of friends were still continued
to the widow, vhen, at' last, old Nance
slept the sleep thatknows no waking. A
largb funeral, one of the largest the little
village had ever seen, attended her to the
grave in the quiet churchgard. There
were tears shed above her beir, and ben
isons breathed upon lier.memory.
The funeral was past. The deacon,
the squire and a number of the village no
tables, were gadeii'edJn her Owelling, and

When- the reading
arose, and drawing a p, - paper Irom
his pocket, inquired the date of " that ar
wilL"
The date was stated, and handing the
Squire his paper, the portionless asked
him to read it.
Alas! it was a will one day younger
than the other., The fond mother in her
weakness had told the son what she had
done, and he managed to have the will
drawn twventy-four hours after the previ
oas one, in which he wvas the sole legatee.
The assembled wisdom and disinterest
edness of the village wenut home thsinking,
and the son had the pleasant satisfaction
of knowing that his mother's last days
were her best days.
Reader, this is not a fiction. It is but
an instance of the weakness in our comn
mon natures, which, in similar develop
ments, conmes before us wvith humiliating
frequency, alike in the highest and lowest
walks of life.
Tankee Heognery.
The world is ever prolific with artful
inventions, calculated for the deception of
the innocent and unwary; and in no
country does the evil pi'evail to a fnller
extent than in the land of Yankees. This
is a somewhat curious circumistance, and
the following instance in point which oc
curr-ed recently in Philadelphia, shows off,
to a certain degree, the success of those
who pursue this course for a livelihood:
A shabby-genteel dandyfied looking
individual, stepping into a hotel, a fewv
evenings ago, where was congyregated a
tolerable crowd, of loungers, called for a
plate of stewed~ oysters. Boniface replied
that lhe had none stewed, but if the gen
tleman would wait, lhe would soon pre
pare sonie.
"Oh, no," answered the individual,
"FIll take 'emi raw."
Accordingly the critters was placed
upon a dish before him, and after cooly
helping himiself to about hailf a pound of
cracker3 and a like abundance of the
seasoning ingredients, lhe proceeded to
dev-our the oysters with a hearty gusto.
Scarcely, however, hiad lie commenced his
onslaught, when a huge rat came bound
ing along the counter, kicking the vine
gar from the plate in its passage, into the
faice of mine host, and bespattering the
bosom of our hero with the same sour comn
modity. A way leaped the frightened lit.
te creature off the opposite end of the
counter, effecting its egress through a
back door, and away flew the landlord
and loafers in hot pursuit,'leaving the un
known customer alone in the bar-room, to
discuss the remainder of his crackers and
oysters. But after a temporary absence
they returned, each one boasting of the
proxPimnity of the fugitive rat, but none
claiming the honor of having actually
harmed it.
They had scarcely seated thecmseves
before out rushed another large specimen
and off rushed the assembled crowd again,
determined not to be frustrated this time.
But again they returned with dejected vis
ages from a -ruitless chiase; when what
was the consternation of Boniface, to dis
cover that his customer was among the
missing! He had eloped-absquatulat
ed-teetotally vamosed-leaving the chap
fallen landlord minus his levy's worth
of oysters, and fifteen dollars in hard mon
ey taken from the till!
