BLESSED ARE THEY THAT MOURN. Bv WILLIAM C. BRYANT. On ! doem not ther are blessed alone Whose lives a'peaocful tenor keep; The Porer wfio-pities man lias shown A blessing for the eyes that weep. The light of smiles shall fill again The lids that overflow with tears ; And weary hours of woe and' pain Are promises of happy years. There is a day of sunny rest For every dark troubled night; And grief may hide, an evening guest, But joy sliaffeome with early light. And thou; who o'er thy fiiend's low bier Sheddest the bitter drops like rain,. Hope that a happier, brighter shore Will give him to thy arms again.. Nor let the good man'% trust depart, Though life its common gift deny, Though pierced and broken be his heart, And spurned of men, he goes to die. For God has marked each sorrowing day, And numbered every secret tear ; And heaven's long age of bliss shall pay For all its children suffer here. THE WORKING MAN'S SONG. BY CHARLES SWAIN. Oh, for work I have never to wait, - And working I can't do without ; What though many are born to estate, They're as often just born to the gout " Give me that free use of my feet, A hand that true industry shows; For labor makes appetite sweet, And a- fine, manly vigor bestows! Pm a worker-and' working's my boast ; A plodder-and love those that plod ; For Nature, from city to coast, Shows Work is the wisdom of God ! All living need something to do! The idle but grumble and grieve ; They must work, and work heartily too, Who would relish the life they receive, And I find it an excellent plan To sing at my-labor each day; Though I'm only a poor, working man, Yet, L fancy I know what I say ! Pm a worker-and working's my boast A plodder-and love those that plod: For Nature, from city to coast, Shows Work is the wisdom of God ! Neatness in Farm Management. More attention should be given to neat ness in farm management, especially in preventing the growth of pernicious plants and in keeping fences and buildings in repair. There is a general carelessness and in many instances a downright Sslovenliness evinced in this respjecetwhich * detract 'much from the beauty of the country, and at the same depreciates the value of the land. It is astonishing that the matter should be so little regarded. It is not uncommon to find the door-yards of farm- houses grown up to thistles, bur docks, &c. Sometimes half an acre or more of the best land the farm affords is thus appropriated as a seed bed for the probation of those vile things and from which they are scattered around the country. Even the spot misnamed 'tihe garden,' frequently has a wide border, which, perhaps amounts to half the area, wholly filled and occupied with weeds and bushes. The injury from those foul plants is much greater than is generally supposed. They increase the expense of cultiva tion, lesson the yield, debase thme quality of crops. When the soil is full of weeds they often get the start of crops and smoe ther themi down. In broad cast crops, it is hardly practible to eradicate weeds, and they run to seed-mingles with the grain and depreciates its value in market. Much of the choicest land in the country las been greatly deteriorated in valne by this careless cultivation and the conse quent growth of weeds. In some of the Western States, this has been strik ingly the ease. It should be a standing rule with far. mers to. prevent their increase, except with those speces which spread by root. In addition to this, tihe thorough extermi nation of all noxious plants should be fol liowed. up at every convenient opportuni to. These efforts should not be confined to the limits of the- farm: but the sides of highways, rail roads, and all public thoroughfares should be guarded with the same- attention. Thero is a law in this State requiring thistles, which grow on the banks of the canals, on the sides of rail roads, &c., to be mown twice a year but the work is often neglected or done in so poor a manner that the object sought is not attained. They should be cut close to the ground while in blossom, but before any seed is formed.-Albany Cul tivator. CURE FOR BURNS AND ScaLDs.-Take soot from a chimney, where wood is burned, rub it fine, and mix one part soot to three parts of hog's lard, spread this on linen or muslin. If in very extensive burns or scalds, the cloth should be torn into strips before putting on the scald ; let the remedy be freely and fully applied, so as perfectly to cover the wound: No other application is required until the pa. tient is well, except to apply fresh appli cations of the soot and lard, &c. In steamboat explosions, this remedy can, in nearly all cases, be at once applied, und and i~f done, many valuable lives will be saved, and a vast amount of suffering al leviated. To KEEP DooR Kxons CLEsA.- La dies are very fond of keeping door knobis, spoons, plates, &c., in brilliant order. Nowv if, instead of water and chalk, and such preparations, they will use cam phene and rotten stone, a far brighter, quicker, and more durable polish will be attained. Topping Corn. Perhaps there has been enough said in the "newspapers" upon this subject, still it seems that it has not been very satis factorily disposed of by your correspon dents. It is well to remember that there is generally two sides to a question, and that people are apt to go upon extremes. Perhaps some of your correspondents may think that their conmunieations would not be worth publishing if they stated nothing but the plain unvarnished truth, and gave the facts against their theories as well as for them. I would not speak disparagingly of the articles in the farmer's department of the newspa per, for they are mostly instructive and useful, but agricultural writers generally are given to the fault of telling large sto ries, or trying to make out a clear case in favor of some theory. And again, some think that because a certain prac tice is more profitable for them in one section of the country, that it is for eve rybody else in different places, and under other circumstances. For instance, a farmer in South Carolina or Vermont will tell us how to raise corn and secure the fodder, and be as dogmatical as though his town comprised the whole corn growing country. Where corn grows small so that it is not bad to handle it may be better to cut it up, and where labor is scarce and fod der, it is better labor to husk on the hill; but where the corn is large and it is desi rable to save the mnost of the fodder, I greatly prefer the topping process. I grant that it costs about the same to top an acre of corn and bind the stalks and set them up, as it does to cut it up and put it in stocks; but I must insist that there is a great difference in the quality of the fodder; and a man can husk twice as much in the hill as he can in the stock, and if the ear.s are picked and drawn to the barn he can husk three times as much, and do it rainy days. Sheep may be turned in to gather the lower leaves either before or after topping.-Dollar News paper. A Rich Story. Some weeks ago there was a gathering of the alumni of Rockland College, Lou isiana, when the following hitherto medi tated story was told. We are indebted to a correspondent of the New Orleans Delta, for it. A tall, awkward looking chap just from the green mountains of Vermont, came on board of one of the splendid North River, at Albany. His curiosity was ama zingly excited at once and he conmnenced pecking, as he called it, into every nook and corner on the boat. The captain's office, the engine room, the water clos ets and the barber's shop all underwent his inspection and theni he wvent on deck and stood in amazement at the lever beaim, thechimneys,.anmLtluatins..hins; till at last he caught sight of the bell. T1his was the crowning wonder, and he viewed it from every pesition, walked around it, got down on his knees and looked up in to it and exclaimed, " Well raly this beats the bell on our mneetin' house a darned sight. By this time the attention of the captain and severalh of the passen gers was attracted to this genius. " How much would you ask to het a feller ring this bell I" "You may ring it for a dollar, sir," said the captamin. ".Well, it's a bargain, and aill fair and agreed and no backing out." " It's a bargain, sit-," said the captain. Our hero went deliberately atnd brou ght a seat and took hold of the hell rope and having arranged every thing to his satis faction, commenced ringing slowly at first and gradlually faster and faster, till everybody on board thought the bont was on fire and rushed on (leck sereaming with alarm. There stood the captain, and there sat the " Vermnontetr," ringing away, first slow and then fast and theni two or three tap~s at a time. The- s sengers began to expostulate ; the cap tain said it was a bargain.-Blut the pas sengers became urgent that the cternal clangor should be stopped(. All the while there sat our hero undisturbed ringing away more wvays than a cockney chitme ringer ever dreamnt of. At Inst the capi taini begatn to think it time to stop the simpleton ; but his answer was " fair bair gain and no backing out," and lie rang away for dear life. "Well," says the captain, " what will you take to stop." "'Well, captain, I guess I shant lose nothing if I take five dollars and a fe passage to Newv York, but not a darnedC~ cent less." " Well, walk dowvn to the oflico and get your money and passage ticket," saidl the captaitn. Th'le Vemnon ter instantly left the bell-rope, and wecnt dow-t to the Captain'3 office,.drawed his money and ticket, and appeared to be perfectly satis fed with his bargain. " DoES this razor go easy ?" ask ed a barber of a victim who was suffering se vere pain under a clumsy instrument, whose chief recommendation was a strotng handle. " Well ;" replied the poor fel low, " that depends upon what you call this operation. If you're skinning me, it goes tolerably easy, but if its .shaving, it goes devilish hard !" A PEDLAR CO3ME UP wITJI.-A pedhlu calling on an old lady to dispose of sonmc goods, inquired of her if she could tell him of any road that no pedlar had ever traveledi "Yes," said shte, " I know of one, and only one, which no pedhar lhas ever traveled, (the pedlar's countenance brightened) and that's the road to IHea ven." We think she had him on the hard, and the Pedlar must have thought the same. Ax old Bachelor has sent us the fol- n lowing conundrum. Why) is an 01(1 maid like a watch ? Because she bears thc mRarkCs of Timec on her face. PAT AT TUE POST OFFICE.-The fol lowing colloquy actually took place at an eastern post office: Pat-" I say, Mr. Postmaster, is there a litther for me. P. M.-" Who are you, my good sir ?" Pat-" I'm meself, (hat's who I am." P. M.-" Well, what's your name?" Pat-" An' what do ye want wid the name ? isn't it on the litther ?" P. M.-" So that I can find the letter if there is one." Pat-" Well, Mary Burns, thin, if ye must have it." P. M.-" No, sir, there is none for Ma ry Burns." Pat-" Is there no way to git in there but through this pane of glass ?" P. M.-"No sir." Pat-" It's well for ye there isn't. I'd teach ye bitter manners than to insist on a gintlemin's name : but ye didn't git it after all-so I'm aven wid ye, divil the bit is my name Burns !" RATHiER DuTrcJ THAN OTHrRwIsE. The editor of the Washington Globe, says:-" As we were down by the river side the other day, we chanced to hear the following altercation. The offence given, as we learned, was, that one of the I parties, hot knowing the name of the other, called him " Dutch," as lie heard others do "You call me Tentch, do you!" Yes, ain't you Dutch ?" " Well, if I is, I won't be blackguarded 'bout it!" " I did not blackguard you." "Yes you did, tam you, I whips you," said Duchy, bustling up to the other. " See here; don't be quite so fast-do yon mean to whip me ?" " Yes, I fights you, if you be not a coward !" " Well, I am not a coward, and will fight you if you can get five respectable men to say you are a gentleman; I can't fight with a blackguard !" " I see you tam fust," replied Duchy and then sloped. -e Two IuIsJMaIEN passing through the woods found a gun. They never having seen anything of the kind, thought that it vas a musical instrument, and determined to practice. Patrick advised Jemmy to blow in the muzzle, while he "played on the keys." The result was that Jemmy lost his brains. AESENiCE OF MIND.--Lord Lyttleton was very absent in company, and when e fell into a river by the upsetting of a boat, at Hagely, it was said of him that he had "sunk twice before he recollected that lie could swim." IiE HAD A GREAT OPINION OF IIMSET.F. -A man who was in the habit of talking to himself being asked the reason why lie (lid so, replied-" Because I like to onverse with a imn of sense ! -0 "Ned WiggimE, Wvlio i3 that girl I saw ou wiilkisig with ?" "Miss Hogg." "IIogg--rHogg-well she is to be, piiedl for having such a name." "So I think," rejoined Ned, "I pitied her so much that I offered her mine, and h1e's goin~g to take it presenitly." " I -r.LLt you, Susan, that I'll commit uicide if~ you won't have me! " Well, John, as soon as yon give that >roof of your affectioni, I will believe that you love me." ANOTT!ERU LIn.EL ON TJIi: GooD) 'oLD Nn-rn S-r.r:."-AXn old laidy, whlo did not know whether her plantation was ai Virginia or North Carolina, found, ebn the line was rmu, that she was a resident of the former. " Well," said lie, " I am glad I don'mt live in North Carolina! It was always a sickly State !" A YoUN(; MAN in New York, on being rossedl in love Iast week, seized a dump in andt dashed its brains out. Ie was a coporal of the Pizerinetumi Guairds, a'nd hlf-brothier to the man who cut his throat with a bar of soap. ' Tiroxas, wiill you take sonie of this ttr ?" " No, I thank you, I belong to the lemperance Society, and can't take any thing stirong." Wity is a man suspended under the allows like one wtho signs a temperance I pledge?
