I OWE NO MAN A DOLLAR BY CHARLES P. SiIRAS. Oh do not envy, my own dear wife! The wealth of our next door neighbor, But bid me still be stout of heart, -And cheerfully follow my labor. You must know, the last of those little debts That have been otr fingering sorrow Is paid this night! So we'll both go forth With joyful hearts, on the morrow! Oh the debtor is but a sihame-faced dog With the creditor's name on his collar, While I'm a king and you are a queen, For we owe no man a dollar Our neighbor you saw in his conch to-day, With his wife and Iis flaunting daughter, While we sat down at our coverless board To a crust and a cup of water, I saw that the tear drop stood in your eye, .Though you tried your bestto conceal it I know that the contrast reached your heart, And you could not help but feel it; But knowing now that our scanty faro Has freed my neck from the collar, You'll join my laugh, and help me shout That we owe no man a dollar! This nwighbor, whose show has dauled your eyes, II fact, is a wretched debtor; I pity him oft from my very heart, And I wish that his lot was better. Why the man is the veriest slave alive, For his dashing wife and daughter Will live in style though ruin should come So lie goes like a lamb to the slaughter ; But lie feels it the tighter every day, That terrible debtor's collar! Oh! what would lie give could he say with us, That lie owed no man a dollar! You seem amazed, but I'll tell you more: Within two hours I met him Sneaking away with a frightened air, As if a fend had beset him; Yet lie fled from a very worthy man, Whon I met with the greatest pleasure Whom I called by name, and forced to stop, Though he said lie was not at leisure. He heldi my last note ! so I held him fast, Till lie freed my neck from the collar; Then I shook his hand as I proudly said, I Now, I owe no man a dollar !' Ahi! now you smile, for you feel the force Of the truths I have been repenting I knew that a downright honest heart In that gentle breast was beating. To-morrow I'll rise, with a giant's strength, To follow my daily labor; But ere we sleep let us hunibly pray For our wretched next door neighbor: And we'll pray for the time when all shall be free From the weight of the debtor's collar When the poorest will lift his voice and cry, " Now, I owe no man a dollar!" GRIEVE NOT ThY FATHER AS LONG AS HE LIVETH. BY Mas. L. H1. s5GoUaNE. Ah! grieve him inot, whose silver hairs Thin o'er his wasted temsples stray ; Grieve not thy sire, whein time imspairs The glory of his manhlood's sway Ihis tottering steps wihm reference aid, Binid Isis wan brow with hsonor's weath Anid let Isis deafensed ear be smade The harp where filial love shall breathe. 'Wha~t thioughs his pausing mind partake The evils of its house of elay, Though wearied, blinded memaory break The easket where her treasures lay. Still wviths prompt arm Isis burdens bear, Bring heavenly balms his wounds to heal, And with afleetion's watchful care, The error that thou mark'st, conceal. Know'st thou hsow oft those powerful arms Ihave clasped thee to his shieldinug breast, Whmen isifant woes, or childish harms, Thly weak, unguarded soul distressed ? Know'st thou how oft these accents strove Tine uninstructed minisd to aid 1 Ihow oft a parent's prayer of love, Ilth pierced densse muidnsighmt's darkest shade? Crieve not thmy fasthser, till lie die, Lest whsen lhe sleeps in earth's cold breast, Thme record of his latest sigh Should prove a dagger to thy rest. For if this holiest debt of love Forgotten or despised should be, Ile whom thou call'st thy Sire above, Will bend a Judge's frown on thee.] . From the Farmer and Planter. Farming--Attention to Small Things the Secret of Success. Mehlssrs. Editors :-If you will allow me the use of a brief space in the columns of' the Farmer and Planter, I wvill make a few hints upon matters relating to farm img. I fully believe that too much cannot be said in favor of subsoiling our lands and protecting them against the washing rains, that bear so rudely away from the soil the elements essential to its productiveness. These matters, together wvith rotation of crops, and drainage of the wvet lands, are receiving, I am glad to see, due consider ation at your hands. The ravages occa sioned by their neglect throughout the South are too apparent to be mistaken, and all except the volunttary benighted and those into whose mind no light can shine, are now convinced of what ought to be done to render their land productive and their homes permanent. But there are other things to be attended to besides these fundamental principles of successful farm ing are many trifles, so conssidered, that make the profit or loss of the husband man, and in the observance of these lies thme good management of the farmer, or in their neglect the secret of his failure. In the first place, it is a matter of moment for most of us who cultivate deversified crops to ask Ourselves, if weo have our i tables, granarles anti out buildings pro >erly located and conveniently construct d. Are the stalls and troughs for otir torses so constructed as to be comforta le, and to prevent waste of food ? Do ve use chopped fodder, corn or meal? )o we vary the food, or continue the same? )a we make thorough use or the curry. lo:nb morning and night? Is our stock n good condition at the time of laying >y our crop ? Have we good collars and races for out, hirses, or do we use grape ines and hickory withes? Have we good lows, hnrrowg, hoes and every kind of mplement necessary to facilitate and save :bor, and do we suffer these to lie out in kight dews and rains, or have we a place or each one beneath a shelter, and do we ake care that each is stored in its place vhen not in use? Do we feed our milch cows night and norning upon peas, turnips or meal, or do ve suffer them to go with what they can aick up in the range, and then complain hat we are without butter and milk, and hat our cows, miserable milkers are dry he greater part of the year ? Have we set apart a piece of land, and ra-mred it well, to be sown in ruta baga Irnips? If not, is it not time to do it nmediately? Do we, as a matter of grace feed our ows on decaying cabbage leaves, and xpect to have butter fit to he used ? These are but, few of the many ques. ions that farmers might ask themselves vith profit, but I will forbear pressing nore upon the mind of the reader lest lie al to heed any of them. It is a very eneral fault among the best of managers hat small things are passed by as too in significant to deserve attention. This is a great mistake, and never shall we be a thrifty, independent, good-living people, until wve change our habits in this resp.-ct. The trifling occurrences of every dav life make up the sum or human hap piness or misery, so do the details of plant ing and farming constitute the gain oi loss. Vast crops of rice may be mad< and handsome prices realized-bales ol Dotton may be heaped on bales, till Ossi be piled upon Pelion, and if the little con reniences of every-day life are not al commnand, we fail to secure the object oi adl our exertions. Rules for the Application of Manure. The following article, from the writing )f Von Thaer, is copied from the Plow the Loom and the Anvil. We much question whether one farmei Dut of a hundred ever entered into an3 calculation to inform himself about th< w, ight or given measure of manure; ye ho.w without such calculations, can lie tel whether his cattle are over or under load ed, or his land over or under dunged? I[ thre any business on this earth conduct ed with so little pretence to exactness, a! that of agriculture? But how can it b< otherwise, when there is for it no pretenc< of education, or systematic account o any thing--when, in fact, the idea is tha any fool may make a farmer. Thue real value of manure is increase< by the fact that it progressively augmien's iself, and that, beside the produce it yield ed, an extra quanlity *of manure willi properly bestowecd never fail to product tie elements of a fresh supply, so thati will soon lbe possible to cultivate thos< plants from which the largest sum o money may be realized. On the othei hud, the manure diminilshes in like pro po(rtionl, if scarcity is allowed to be lt ad an immediate and suitable remedy b< [und and applied. One of the conse luences of a scarcity or diminution o cinure is a scarcity of strawv, and whler< ~here is little strawv or fodder little dung ~an be obtained ; andl thus the quantity o nanure progressively dwsindles aw~ay un ii the soil becomes totally exhausted. However, expensive it may be to be tow the first quantity of manure on . oil which has been1 impoverished, thmer< ~ertainly is no capital better eimployed han that which is expended in this man er. Thme usual load for a wagon dlrawn'm by our horses is thirtv-six cubie feet of sta de manure half reduced, amnd in the state, hat is to say, when the straw has become ;oft and disorganized, with out becing whol y decomposed and the (lung is moist, yei ot very wa~itery a cubic foot of it will veighi 20 pounds; therefore a load 3( eet contains 201t6 pounds, w"hich for the ake of oibtaiiing round numbers we will -educe to 2,000 pounds. Where the roadsm ire good and the wveather favorable, tlh oad may be increased ; but as a period of ne weather is seldom used for carrying nanure, this quantity wvill in genleral be ound to be tolerably correct. If tihe strawv is not decomposed or al red, a cubic foot, closely packed, wvill ot weigh more than 18 pounds, and in his case the volume or size of the load s increased, and coatainls from 45 to 46 :ubic feet of manure. When eight of these loads are distribu. ;ed over an acre of land it is considered hat a good covering has been given. Bach square perch then receives 88 lbs. >f manlure, and each square foot nearly 6 younds. If only five of these loads be dlowved each acre, as is generally tihe case, t is said then thlat ground hlas been slight y manured and each square perchl receives thout 54 pounds. A nd lastly, if 12 loads tre spread over each acre, which must ever occur where cereal crop are to be ~rown, (wve of course do not include In ian corn,) unless the land has been com >letely exhausted, then the ground is said o0 have received an abundant manuring. It is customary to allowv only one-hlalf he weight and quantity of manure above nentioned when the mianure is derived ntirely from sheep because the effects svhich it produces are at once greater and nore prompt but less efficacious in point f durability. 'rho periods of these manurings occur very three, four, six or nine years-- The nore frequently applied, the slighter they Lre; and the longer the intervals the more bundant must the manuring he. Thus only the quantity to be laidepin at each time but the tmuniber of thies to be re- a peated. RECEI 3 dR MAKING AfvIx PLD DING.-Pare and chop fine half a dozen more of the best cooking apples-rub a little grease on the inside of a pudding a dish, and cover the bottom and sides with h-lf an inch of finely pulverized bread, -r and some butter divided ito Small lumps; then put on a layer of apples with sugar and grated nutmeg, and repeat the layer, which must be of bread and butter, and pour on gradually over the whole, a cup of cold water. Bake for thirty minutes. It may, when desirable, be prepared and i liaked the day before it is used, but it must be turned into a platter thoroughly heated berore serving, and sprinkled with powdered sugar. No sauce required. CUSTRnD WITHOUT EGGo.-One quart of sweet new milk; four table-spoonfuls of flour, and two of sugar. Season with nutmeg, or cinnamon if you prefer it, and salt to your taste, The milk should be put over a brisk fire, and when boiling the flour must be stirred in, after having been mixed with cold milk-to prevent its lumping. As soon as thoroughly scalded add the sugar, salt and spice. It may be baked either in crust or cups. This is a fine custard, and by many pre ferred to that made with eggs. t -7 -: 7- 7= A GOOD REAso.-A country peda gogue had two pupils, to one of whom he was very partial, and to the other very severe. One morning it happened that these two were late and were called out to account for it. " You must have heard the bell, boys; why did you not come I "Please sir," said the favorite, "I was a dre imin' that I was goin' to Californy, and I thought the schoo'-bell was the steam-boat bell as I was goin' in." " Very well, sir," said the master, glad of any pretext to excuse his favorite; "and now, sir, (turning to the other) what have you to say ?" " Please sir, please sir," said the puzzled boy-" IP! ! was wai tin" to see Tom of! !" It was this same boy who being asked the next day if his father was a Christian, answered, "No sir, he's a Datchman."-Carpet Bag. SWEET.-" Ma! ma! Cousin Bill, lie's in the parlor, with sister Sal, and hekeeps biting her." ",Cousin Bill biting Sal !" "Yes'em, I seed him do it ever so ma ny times; bit her right on the mouth and the tarnal gal didn't holler a bit no ther." " Oh-alh ! never mind Ned, I guess lie didn't hurt her much." " Hurt her! by gosh, she loves, it she does, cos she kept letting him, and didn't say nothing but just smacked her lips as though twas good~jshe did. I seed it all, through the key-hole. I'll fire taters at him, by gosh." A flashy young man wvent into a Posey country clothing store the other dacy, aiid rasked the price of a pair of pants. On being told the price lie exclaimed " Why no, you don't say ; I could steal 'em hepr thana that." "'No doubt," replied the merchant. " I've lost three pair since your arrival." "A h, indeed ! You have lost some thing else too, which some would miss more thman their breeches." [lost possible! Pray what else have "Your brains," coolly responded the .other. " Oh, I knewv that," retaliated the mer chant. " But T wvould not accuse you for a mo ment of having stolen them." Be.-Some peopile always have a bu,, whlichl they put in thme wvay of everyting. Inquiring of such a onie the character of1 his neighbor, he replied :" Why, lie is a poorly fair, clever sort of man ; but hem." "What ?" " Why, a hem-why he feeds his darned old1 horse on pumpkins !" How DF.LIGHTFUL, w~hmen one reposing after the fatigues of the day, and the, mind, before entering dream-land, is per haps taking a retrospective sweep of years gone by, calliing up fond images in the memory until the glowing sun light of other (lays senms returning back again how pleasant then is it to feel the gripe of a bedlbug in the back. " PO~rPEr," said one darkie to another, "what am a crowner's 'quest ?" " Wal de fac is, nigger, a crowner's 'quest am a lot of tellers wvhat sits down < on a dlead man, to find out for sartin whether he am dead, or only playing possum !" Mas. Guames says she doin't know what they want or a grand jury. She thinks that common juries are grand enough, as her hausbanid felt so grand when he was on the jury that nobody dared to speak to him for a month afterwvard. Poou Pr~s !-The farmer whose pigs were so lean that it took two of them to make a shadow, has been b~eat by another, who had several so thin that they would crawl out through the cracks in their pen. He finally stopped them by tying knots in their tails! "LANDORDx," said anm exquisite, "can you enable mec fromi your culinary stores, to realise the pleasure of a few dulcet murphies, rendered innoxious by ignecouse martyrdom ?" He wanted a sweet pota toe baked. Highfalutin that, was'nit it? ? Ax editor dlown South, who served four1 days oii a jury, says lhe's so full of tho law, that it is hard to keep from cheating somebody. " Tzuntsv pressure in the money market," as the mouse said to the keg ofr pecnie ..en. it r.onld ove.. him. G. W.
