The Old Story.
M arima, mames, youcg Eddie'J^nes,
Who called for me last nigfct, '.
And by the fallen oak sat down, V*
Beneath the moon's soft light; Sr- : v\
Whispered so ma?y^pwity thing?
About n?s country home,
Anci-took my- bund in his and asked.
1 " I would' be bis uwn.
He called me beautiful, and sali
My h and Tras snowy white,
My lips were coral and; my eyes ?
Wero like the diamond's light ;
And then he sighed and looked so sad,
And seemed ia such distress,
That when he H.-ked me io bo his,
I had to tell him yes.
Fie ! Fie! cy daughter,.Eddie Jones,
A nico young man may be,
But " be oan't keep a hotel," nor
A husband be to theo ;
He's nothing?feut a country clown,
And does not own " a red,"

But, dear mamme, young Eddie Jones,
lr, wealthy, I cm sn re, . '
For old Spondulicks died and left
Fire thousand pounds.or raoro ;
And all this money is bis own,.
Besides his country home;
Mamma, mamma, I'd rather bo
Hie bride than live alone.
I kaow he loves the rory ground.
Cn which my shadow falls,
And will delight to furnish me,
Y.'Ith bonnee?, bo?p? and shawl's ;
And more than all thut g'old can buy,
More than my potted' vibe, !
That climbs, upon.tho porch-I love ?
To know his " heart" ?3 mine.
Five thousand'pounds !-and all bis own !
Whew, daughter, what a pile ! .
No : that I care a fig for wealth,' . .
Therefore yen needn't smile.
But Eddi? .Tones bas won your heart,
And loves you too, I guess :

i??)ois sad Fruits for Farming
'J'he Farmer, in some well-timed re
m*rk? in behalf of farming, a's opposed
to the planting heretofore prevalent in
the South, gives some valuble hints-:
Let.us look at a few facts'in regard to
the profits of fruit ?ud vegetable crops.
Two -hundrftd^ bushels would be but n
small yield for an acre of turnips,y el
these aro worth five times a* much jo
market as a proportionate crop of ?the?t
on the "same ground, and will go as far as
fi ve" acres of hay or com ni feeding cattle;
Nor is the trouble and expense of ciiUU
vating au acre of turnips near so -great
as of five ticres of grain, and his crop is
grown on land from which a crop of
something else may have been taken the
same season. Au acre of carrots will
give about the same results, with the ad
vantage of affording better food for.stock.
Again, an acre of ground wiH-.produce
10.000 cabbages, with an expenditure of
labor no; much greater than that required
by an ?vere of com.. Yet at five cents
per" head these are worth $500. -Thi'
question of a market, it is true, comes in
here. In the former instances the proper
market is at home, by converting these
crops into stock. But onions, for instance,
give a result largely more favorable than
either of the above, and they con be as
readily and successfully marketed os
wheat or corn. This vegetable has now
become an article of commerce as ship
stores.
So we might go on with a long list of
vegetables. In many parts of the North,
whole districts are devoted to some crop
of this kind, as to hops, onions, &c. With
regard to orchards, there are similar fact*
even more striking in their character. Our
soil and climate are finely adapted to the
apple, peach,, pear, plum and cherry.
'Ihey grow and flourish almost in a wild
state, anti with care and attention can be
mad?, extremely profitable. " Take for
instance an apple orchard. An acre of
ground will hold 50 apple trees at nearly
.'?0 feet p.part. The ground for the firs!
three years can be cropped" in potatoes
or something r of-the kind, which wili
make a- handsome return. If then it
should be put down in grass, the apples
Vr ?ll pay -expenses for a year or two. If
tno fifth or sixth year, if properly man
aged,, we. may gather froui one to twp
bushels of apples from each tre<;, which
will be worth from $50 to $100. After
this the yield will sturdily one rapidly
increase. But limiting the average to
five bushels per tree, and the nett .price
to 75 cents per bushel, we have an annual
income of $187.50 per acre. This profit
too, can be realized with little labor, not
as much as is required to cultivate and
gathewin acre of wheat or corn.
From the Middle Georgia Neat.
A Good Dinner.
A few days ago wc happened in at one
of our neighbors about noon. The ladies
very politely asked us to dine with them
-which invitation we very uncermoni
ously accepted,. as. we expected to get
something good. We sat down to a
beautiful table perfectly loaded with rich,
delicious vegetables. The lady soon re
marked, that they had no meats as but
one of their family ate meat and he was
absent. WP thought that, for thi? country
it was-a. novelization and never dreamt
that such a custom..' could ever be intro,
duced into Georgia, that people must be
poor indeed, who could not afford animal
food, but here .wa* one of our most in
telligent, wealthiest families that had
meat in abundance who had discarded'il;
almost entirely ?rom their table. We
had exhausted nearly all of our available
means to keep a supply of steak, chick
ens, or oocosioriajly a piece . of lamb for
our ow n table. "We really expected that
we might wish a piece of ham Or a slice
of middling before, we satisfied the cra
vings of the.inner man. All a miserable
mistake, a total fallacy. We never ate
a more satisfactory dinner in our
lives. The vegetables were highly
geasoned und thoroughly cooked,. The
squash, the Irish potato, okra, &c,, were
delicious, and cucutnbera elegantly pre
rared-bMtHffdl bread; wfth wet frein

Pickles.--Rules to foe Obsorn
Procure always the best vinegar,
"gar is so grossly adulterated that
really difficult to obtain it pure,
success of your pickle depends o
goodness of your vinegar.
Use glass bottles or stone jars for
pickles; if.earthen jars, they mus
unglazed, as the vinegv, acting upo;
glazing, produces a mineral poison,
saucepans lined with earthen wan
stone pipkins, to boil your vinegt
If you are compelled to use tin, d?
let your vinegar remain itt itonemoi
longer than actually necessary; em
also wooden knives and forks in the
paration Of your pickles. Fill your
three parts full with the articles t
pickled, and then add vinegar np t<
neck of the jar or bottle.
When, greening, keep the pickles
ered down, of the evaporation of
stream will injure the co:or ; a little ?
may be added to crisp the pickles, b
should be very. small, in proportic
the quantity, or it will give a very i
?jreeable flavor.
Pickles should be occasionally lot
over, that the softest and :hose least li!
to keep well may be used first. Store p
les, or those intended for use the fol;
ing summer, should be assorted from
remainder when first made ; choose tl
most firm; put them into stone or g
ware, with fresh vinegar to cover th<
cover the vessel close.
Beaus, radish pods, tomatoes, sr
cucumbers, green.plum9, andpasturtii
may be put in a jar together for assoi
pickles, with a few onion?, if liked. I
or six peppers amongst two or three 1
. -Ired cucumbers, will make them si
ciently strong. Should the vinegar
pickles become white pr weakened, t
?t off, scald and skimi^' and return ii
them either hot or cold.
CUCUMBERS--YOUNG.-Choose ri
young gherkins, lay them upon disl
' sprinkle salt over them, let tham li
a week, drain them off and put th
into stone jars; pour boiling vinegar c
them, place them near the fire, co'
them well with vine leaves, and if no
good green, pour off the vinegar and b
it-again ; ?over them with fresh vi
leaves and continue doing so until th
are a good color', as to make jri beti
green you must use a mctnl-Wtewpan
brass skillets, which are poisonous.
Use wooden spoons withhofes,- to di
all pickles, keeping them always w
covered and from air. Another meth
of pickling cucumbers, which is good,
to put them in salt and water, as y
pick.them, changing the salt and wat
once in three or four days. When vi
have done collecting your cucuinber/f
pickling, take them out of the salt ai
water, and tuyn on" scald ng hot vineg!
wifh alum, galt arid pepper corns in it.
. BEANS, SNAP-'PICKLED.-Lay them
salt and water for nine days, then add
little vinegar and boil them in the liquo;
when they become green, drain then
wipe them dry, and put the beans into
jar ;. bo2 - some .vinegar, ginger, mac
pepper, cloves, and mustard seed, a
bruised, and while hot pour it on tl
beans ; cover them close when cold.
PEACHES^-Take of full growth, rip
but not soft; wipe them with a flan m
cloth, or pare them ; .stick three or fou
cloves* into each peach; lay them ill
alone jar. . Put half a pound of sugar t
a quart of good .vinegar, add cinnamo;
and'other spices to the taste ; let the vint
gar come to a boil, skim, and pour it 01
the peaches. Let them stand two weeks
then pour off the vinegar and boil it, anc
pour it on again, and they are then fit foi
use.
OSIONS, TO PlOiOK.-Peel the onioni
.MI they look white; boil somo strong
salt and water, and pour it over them ;
let them stand in this twenty-four hours j
keep the vessel closely co ve ruc5 to retain
the ?team ; after that time wipe tho onions
quite dr& .nod when they are cold, pout
boiling vinegar, with ginger and white
pepper? ? Vcr them} take cure the vinegar
j always covefrlrte on {chit . - .

. ^Poultry.
- ?o one sho'n?d keep too large -a stock
of poultry. They do not thrive well,
kept together in large numbers. They
become sickly, infested with lice, and lay
but few eggs. .They need a good range
where they can find plenty of insects
aud if kept in' large numbers, these in
sects are distributed among so many that
they do but little good to any. Some
think that by supplying meat the loss of
insects can be overcome "; but we have
never seen this effectual. It is true, in
winter hens must be supplied with meat
if you expect them to lay. We hav?
kept various- numbers of hens, and
have come, to the conclusion that the
most profitable number for eggs is about
thirty. v.'We go.t Minore eggs when we
kept thirty than wheti we kept; seventy.
And w?oelt?vtf'tEatf?very one who will
try the experiment will find that our ex
perience will be his own.
A warm hen-house is needed in winter,
if you would have your hens lay. If
allowed to roost in trees, and left exposed
to the storms of rain and snow, and to
the intense cold that prevails, you need
not expect fresh eggs. But with a warm
house, plenty of feed and water, and
some meat, your hens will reward you
with nice' fresh eg'^s,. which arc such a
great luxury served up in so many forms
upon every gentleman's table.-American
Agriculturalist.
THE WAT TO SELECT FLOUR.-First,
look to the color. If it is-white, with a
yellowish or straw-colored tint, buy it.
If it is white, with a bluish ea?t, or with
white specks in it, refuse it. Second, ex
amine its adhesiveness : wet and knead a
little of it between your fingers; if it
works soft and sticky it is poor. Third,
throw a little lump of dry flour against a
smooth surface ; if itfaUs like powder it
is bad. Fourth, squeeze some of the
flour in your hand; it it retains the shape
given hy the pressure, that, too, is a good
sign. Flour that will stand all these tests
it is safe to buy.
These modes are given by old flour
dealers, and they pertain to a matter that
concerns everybody-the stall' of lif?<
PKESERVR THE HARNESS.-Take, of cas
tile soap one pound,, beeswax two ounces,
neatsfoot oil one pint, alc?hol one gill,
ivory black one ounce, gum arabic one
ounce.
Mix the beeswax and oil by gently
heating in the same vessel ; dissolve the
gum arabic in a gill or so of hot water;
shave thc soap fine and dissolve the same
as gum arabic; mix all together, if not
of the consistency of oil, make it so by
gently evaporating a portion.of thc water.
Wash thc harness dean and apply. If
your harness is stiff and hard, take the
first opportunity to give it a thorough
coating of this mixture, and when once
pliable keep it so. Thc leather will last
double the length of time that it will if
never washed or oiled.

By CAPTAIN EBICSSON, and other eminent engi
neers. We can refer to thousand 3 using them, and
guarantee that all will recommend them. They
aro more simple in construction., and work easier,
and coat lesp 'Hn all others.
"Oar rea ? will find the double acting, improved

doe? tjt freezo tn thc coldest exposure, and Isunuaually
cheap. We say this knowingly, and give the testimony
or our own accord, without the kno-.vledge or request or
the proprietors."-iT. Y.Ectning.r.nst, July 1?<? 1S68.
J. D. WEST ?fe Co.-We are pleated to state that the
Pomps wo had or you, about a year ago, have been in
constant use, 12 hours each day, and raise for the use of
our woolen factory, about one hundred and arty gallons
por minute. They work with buHit4o power, compared
with pumps we huve used before, a id do not get out of
repair, and are satisfactory in all ru neets.
DUNLAP MAH Ul ACT?EING CO."
SOtON ROBINSON TO TUE FARUEB'.I CtUB, J AN. 28:
'. No Farmer who owns a well or cistern can possibly
alford to be without an iron pump, lt should be at once
a suction and force pump-a perfect little engine-such
a one known as ' West's Improved Pump.' I speak of
this pump, because I happen to knew lt to be very sim
ple, duraole, powerful and cheap, lind it dont freeze np
nor get out of order once a year. I .mow this and thins
I may be doing the farmers good by speaking of iL A
boy ten years old con work Vt, and throw a continuous
Inch-and-a-qnartcr stream. It can !)o made to work in
deep wells os well as in shallow outs."
Gnr.Ai NECK, L. I.. 1SC1.
"I have used this Pump for one Mirrimer and winter,
exposed to the northwest wind, coming over Long Island
Sound, being tho coldest possible -?xposcrc,-and at co
time did it freeze, nor were ?ive urabie at any time to
pump water with great ease.
H B. McILVIAN.?
"The undersigned having used West's Improved
Pumps, cheerfully recommend then' as simple, durable
und powerful in raising and throwing water, and for
their ease of uction, security against frost, and low price,
we believe them superior lo all others.

From Ute New York Observer.
" We have had In use for months past one of West's
pump?, which has given us more satisfaction as n force
and lifting pump than any we have ever used. It Is one
of great power, and well adapted for ship's decks, mines,
factories, greenhouse?, grujterles, etc The Mining
Chronicle awl Hu ?lieu ?j./oumul ian : It is recommen
ded for ?ts extreme simplicity 'pt construction, great
-tren?!h and consequent durability .dui cheapness of re
pair. There r*hustuffing box-?lie pressure being held
by a cnp-paekliigliko upon the working-pieton, working
in a cylinder, flited Tor the purpose within the upper air
chamber-which we think u great movement; as staffing
is so liable lo be deranged and leak under strong pressure
lo say nothing of the loss by friction incident thereto. Il
has also two airehumucrs- thus, tho uction of the valve
is cushioned upon holli sides by air-preventing water
liunuiicraud vacuum-tliunip. The valves are very ac
cessible, and simply und cheaply r "paired. They work
custer lliuii any pump wo have ever seen : the 4 Inch cy
linder being worked by children in wells ono hundred
feet deep, and as they ure extremely cheap, as welt as
'simple and stroug, we freely recommend them."
"CAXBBIDGE MINE, >,. C., June 25, l&ftJ.

for our mine ls reecjvod.aud put to work lu our uuderluy

with ease, lift IH'iy gallons per inlutHe, Wc lifted lu three
and a half hours all Hie ?aler in the shaft, which mea
sures even twelve feel and thirty feet deep, and It was

In every respec*. Il will do great service with but trifling
