This running over a great many aeres to
obtain that amount of grain whieb should be
the product of a few, is one of' dt:e greatest
evils of the present system of firming.
Farniers wish to get rich too fast; are amibi
tious to become the possessors of too many
broad acres, and in the thirst for gain take a
course di:metrically opposite to the one most
conducive to the realization of the desires.
The improvement of the soil is an item far
too generally overlooked by the farmer, when
balancing u1p accounts and figuring up profit
and loss. Though it i, passed by as unwor
thy of a thought, it is nevertheless a con
sideration of vital importance, and one which
should receive the most careful attention.
Profitable farming requires some thing
more than the production of one large crop
of the realization of great gains for one
year: it dem:nds a providence for the future,
a foresight which looks beyond the present
season. That course of Cropping, which,
thiough it fills our granaries and coffers for
three or four years, yet in the end exhaust
and ruins our soil, is far from being a profi
table system, indeed, it is the very poorest
which can be practised, and will ruin him
who follows it as effectually as a lawsuit.
The improvement of the soil should be
the chief object; for when once attained,
prosperity and plenty will immediately re
suit from it. This should enter into all sour
calculations, and fron the test by which to
try all plans and systems, and by which to
decide upon their adoption or rejection. Nor
should the mind be neglected,-it needs cul
tivation as well as the soil, and time spent in
its improvements will lie well occupied,
though looked upon by many as a matter of
small import, it is none the less of great mo
iment, and, withall, will pay, and that too
abundantly, in more ways than one.
miny aie the requisintions of prolitable far
mingr, but their enumeration would call for
more space than can be given in this article
however, if acceptable, I will endeavor to
present mny views upon a few of them at
some future time.

Good mules rated at 9100 to 81:25, and not
dull of sale at that ! Now I take it upon
imi to say, that even if' cotton is at 12 cents

cotton. In the mode of' fatrming, .o) accom

Unclo Bill's Iirst Love,
31y Uncle Bill and Aunt Airy resides on
Lung Island not ir from the far-famed re
sort Rockaway. One evening last week, as
Aunt Airy was boiling some chesnuts for us
'Yorkers' to eat and as uncle Bill sat smokingr
a good Havana we had brought with us, we
persuaded him to tell us a story. Uncle Bill
tells a good one when he chooses and being
a man that loves to please, he dipped very
quickly into the merite of the one he proposed
telling, somewhat thus:
"When I was a young man, I had occasion
to travel some distance in a stage coach, as
steamboats and rail roads were not too plenty
in those days. Now I have heard often of
fellere tflilin' in love at first sight, but never
much believed it till that stage made me kin
der think so. I had the inck of setting along
side of one of the prettiest women I have
ever seen. Uncle Bill looked slyly at Aunt
Airv.
"1I soon fell in love chuck up to the brim
with the gal. As it was growin' dark the
stage was passin' through a thick wood, then
I thought my time was come surely. As I
felt my strength was goin' quick, I kinder
gently lifted my arm and drew it around the
thir one's wais4: she mo.ved not, but only
made a slight noise, which I supposed was a
love sigh. Says I dear one-sweet one I
love you will yer love me? The girl said
nothin', but made the noise I supposed was a
love sigh again.-I then pressed her to me,
and her head fell upon my shoulder and I be
gan to tremble all over; but still I kept my
tongule ia goin'and says I, dear little one won't
yer love me-ean't yer love me, Will yer mar
ry me ? The stage just then drove out of
the wood, and the moon shone on her face
and I looked on it-and-:md
"And what'." we all exclaimed.
" And" says Uncle Bill, " she w:as sleepin'
and snorin' in ny arms!"
When our roars of laughter had somewhat
subsided Uncle Bill, said,
And there -:he sits bilin' clesnuts."
Cooi.-We have read of many wonderful
nstinnces of coolness and sang froid exhibi
ted by indiednals on trying occasions, and
have been surprised to see how the soul
could bear up iagaiist the most. crushing
blows ot adversity. and inl the hour of sud
den iind bitter disappointimnt: but decided
lV the " iiest" specimen of nonchalance un
der atliction that we have met with during
the present seasoi, is the following incident:
A love smitten proflessor in one of our
colleges, after conversing a while with his
dnIleinca on the i:iteresting topic of matri
monv, concluded at last with a declaration,
and put the emphatic question of
" Will you hauve me?"
"I am sorry to disappoint y'ou," replied
thme lady, "and hopecm my refusal will iiot give
Iyou pain. But I must :answer no.'
"Well, wellI, that willI do, madam," said
her phmilosopmhical lover, "and now wps
