Lime and Salt,
Prof. Johnson recommends for fer
tilizing purposes, to mix 1 bushel salt
and 2 bushels dry lime under cover,
and allow the mixture to decompose
gradually, thus forming an intimate
chemical unison of the two materials.
For this purpose the mixture should
be at least 6 weeks before use, br,
still better, 2 or 3 'months, the heap
mentioned being turned over occa
sionally. This salt and lime mixture,
when applied at the rate of 20 or 30
bushels per acre, forms an excellent
topdressing for many crrps. "It acts
powerfully on Hie vegetable matter
of soils : "56 bushels applied to a tur
nip field have prod need a's lair-- n
crop as barnyard mannro". Tri- ilso
very destructivo to insects ai I grubs
in soil. It attn'ct s moisture .from the
air, and is useful .against flr< n ;hi
Its decomposing rower is remarka]
and if 3 or 4 bushels of- ir are mixed
with a cord of swamp muck, the
latter would soon be reduced to pow
der-v-^. . -,".. t;
. Salt and plaster mixed are also
said to be a very good top-dressing on
some, while on others they, do no
good. Plaster does well on .some
soils and is worthless on others. The
same is also', true of both lime and
salt, as it is of most other commercial
fertilizers. Let these facts be c.-ire
fully healed by farmers and gar
deners.

Toe Dignity of Labor&Honor the
Labcrcri
He [Jefferson] [recognized ;he sim
pie dignity ol' manhood, valor, cour
tesy, and genius. But he did Mot see
in labor the highest dignity. Ir re
quired a more thorough developmei i
. of the French intellect to kn? w the
truth, that labor is divine, and iii :
her altars should burn incense to the
scavenger as the sternest type of la
bor." HORACE GREELY.
If there ever was a time for the
your g' men of the country to show of
what material they are made, that time
is no w upon us. The enforcement of the
emancipation policy at the close of
the late disastrous war, added pecuni
ary to political ruin. Splendid es
tates, the accumulated - earnings of
generations of economy, industry and
skill', have, by a simple proclamation
of th'e President, " taken to them
selves wings and flown to the utmost
parts." Distinguished families, long
known and honored for their culture,'
talents,and splendidhospitality, have
seen their hundred slaves liberated,
, their broad fields lying waste, and
their style reduced from opulence to
rigid simplicity. Old men, with heavy
and sorrowful hearts, mourn the loss
of their sons and grand sons fallen
in the great struggle. The days of
their youth and manhood have in
vain been sA->ent in labor and toil, and
a dreary and comfortless old age is
their only reward. Their habits form
ed, their labors lost, and their slaves
free and impudent. To such, life is
indeed cheerless, and their forlorn
condition would extort a tear of sym
pathy from the most obdurate. Much
allowance should'be made when such
persons worry and vex themselves at
the times, and show great impatience
and irritability at the freedmen. .
Xonc of these alleviating circum
stances apply to the young. "Phos"
young men who have escaped the
perils of ihe war with whole limbs
and sound constitutions, and whose
souls are inspired with true "d no
ble principles and aims, have in
prospect a glorious future. WI ; ' i
prospect fortin* w irking yout?g men .'
The Josses aud ravag?s ol' die v.;..
have, in a greai measure, obliterated
the caste and distinctions of society.
This fact will become more apparent
in a few years than it is now. Men,
henceforth? will bc esteemed, not for
wi it their fathers have done forthem,
i nit for what they doter themselves
:;n3 their country." And what better
snd nobler deed can they do, than
. ty hold of the ar and plough, and
aid in repairing tim waste and ravages
of the v.*ar? If every young man
. in Florida would go at one- r-> work,
and thus encourage the freedmen to
work. leading them forward and set
ting thom the example, our country
would soon he redeemed and disen
thralled. The waste-places would
be built r.p, and the tieMs again smile
with the rich harvests. Fin* unen
cumbered estates would so"ii bo nc
quired. and our people become abie
to exhibir their prestine culture and
hospitality. A solvent, enterprising
and industrious aristocracy . won '
soon spring up, to honor and -!
labor, and infuse in!'? the -..i
spirit bl '?uaepend?nce and virru
This most .desirable end eVn bc cou
passed by honoring every . m-re ti.
industrious laborer. AU persons o:
influence and position should mark
the idle, insist upo:i his going to work
to help himself and family and his
country. When such persist in indo
lence and loafing, brand him with in
famy and social di-grace ! Warn and
caution your daughters against such,
though they display the beauties of
Apollo, and dress with the taste and
elegance of a gay Lothario. The
scavenger on the streets, if he be in
dustrious and honest, should be es
teemed above any idler, of however
great pretensions. Honor everywhere
the industri?os, honest laborer. Al
ways put him infinitely above loafers
and loungers 'about bar rooms and
hotels.
The young ladies in particular
could do much good. They should
bestow their sweetest smiles upon the
hard working, honest man, whatever
be his condition. They should shun,
With ine:?able scorn, everyidling tup
ater. They should go farther. They
should give their. hearts and hands
to the peor, honest laborer, in prefer-,
ence to the' extravagant, penniless
loafer. Until the laborer receives
his just honors and rewards," and the
idler his merited derision and . :orn, ?
our land will be afflicted wii-u an
idle, indolent^ and vicious population.
The wheels of industry and enter
prise will be clogged with dead
weights. Our country will continue
bankrupt, humiliated, and impover
ished.

. A PLEASANT FERTILIZES FOB GAR?
DEN PLANTS.-Many .periods, par
ticularly 'ladies, dislike to use the
ordinary .fertilizer . from th? barn or
poultry yard, on flowers .and other
house plants. " One' who ?hows,"
sends the foifowing, which is good
not only tot'stimulate house plants,
but for out-door plants 'of almost ev?
ery kind. .
" Dissolve one-half to three-quarter
ounres of sulphate bf ammonia .(ob
tained che?ply at the d??g^rst's*) in
one gallon of water. Apply it only
once a week,- and then only to grow
ing plants. It may be used with
great benefit on beds of strawberries,
on peas, on dwarf pears, grape-vines,
danlias, and for all kinds of pelt-plants.
This mixture increases the size of the
foliage of plants, and gives a dark,
shining green color. The flowers also
are improved in proportion. And,,
not least important, this fertilizer will
do no harm.
One Way of Improving Land.
. Lt perhaps has occurred to but few
farmers to eftploy, the roving herds
of Summer at manme-making. It
may be done thus :
Select a spot adjoining an outside
fence, and enclose it well on the three
remaining sides. Haul leaves from
the woods, muck from, . ponds or
ewamps^or anything that will rot into
a good manure in ten or twelve
months, and spread over this lot three
c r four . inches deep. If there are
not several trees in, this lot, make

A corresbondent of the Huh-al iV\ u

his and his - friend's ideas as to the
best breeds of Poultry, feeding, clean
liness and care of houses. He says :
In a recent conversation with a
few friends, the'question., was asked,
" What breed of fowls are now tak
ing the preference ?" This broadsid
ed question is often asked-broadsid
ed, because we may as consistently
ask what breed of horses are the
best, without specifying whether we
want draft horses or old trotters.
vVe, Yankee fashion, undertook to
reply to the inquiry by asking. ,?For
what particular purpose? For lay
ing, sitting, for market, winter lay
ers, summer layers, or do you want a
fowl possessing all the good qualities,
without any bad ones ?"
" Yes, all combined," was the re
Now no one individual possesses all
of the graces. Each one is blessed
with more or less, hut' no one with
all of them. Variety characterizes

Wedding of the Giants.
[London Correspondence, June 17th,
Now York - Times.]
What might be called a very tall
wedding came off to-day at St.
George's Church, close to Trafalgar
Square. Captain Van Buren Bates,
who is said to have served in the
Confederate army, and who is eight
feet hi; "i, and weighs" four hundred
pounds, and Miss Nora Swan, a Nova
Scotian lady, some inches taller than
the Captain and about the same
weight, were united in the holy bonds
of matrimony. The ceremony is thus
described by an English witness :
The hour fixed for the solemnity
was ll A. M. ; and the affair having
got* wind, there was, long before the
momentous question was put hy the
priest, a goodly number of those
spectators to whom any. kind, of wed
ding is'always-gratifyihg,- and a-mon
ster wedding a joy forever. At IO;
exactly the bridegroom' arrived and

by a dead silence, announced the ap

comes the culminating: result, and the setting in,
with all Ifs distressing symptoms of
COB???U3UPTI03?.
The Mandrake Pills ar* composed of one of Na
ture's noblest gifts-tho Pr.dophUium Peltatum.
They possess all the Mood-searching, alterative
properties of .calomel, but, unlike adorne!, they
"LEAVE ISO S?TBH3 BEHESTD."
The work ot care Lino w beginning. The vitiated
andjmucoua deposits in the bowels and In the ali
mentary canal are ejectad. The liver, like a clock,
? wound op. It arouses from its torpidity. Toa
stomach acts responsively, and the patient-begins
to feel that he is getting, at last,.
A SH?PLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Sea-weed Tonic, in conjunction with the Mis,
pormcato and assimilates wita the food.. Oby Uti
ca tlon ls now progressing without its previous tor
tures. Digestion becomes painless, and the core is
seen to be at hand. There is no more flatulence, no
exacerbation of tue stomach. An appetite sets in.
Kow comes the greatest Blood Purifier, ever yet
given by on Indulgent father to suffering man.
Bchenck'8 Palraonlc Syrup comes In to periorm'lts
fonctions and to-hasten and complete the core. It
enters at once upon its work. > atoro can not be
cheated, tt collects and ripens the Impaired and
diseased portions of tho lungs.-In the form of
gatherings, it prepares them for expectoration, and
lol in a very short time the malady is vanquished,
the rotten throne that lt occupied ls renovated ano
made new, and the patient, in all the dignity ot re
gained vigor, steps forth to enjoy the manhood or
womanhood that waa-' -..'il.-r.: . ...
ems VB AS LOST.
The second thing is, tho patients must stay in's
worm room until they get well; It is almost Impos
sible to pr? vent taking cold when the lungB are dis
eased, but lt must be prevented or a cor? can not bs
effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in this
section, of the country, ia the fall and winter pea
son, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend
that conree lose their patients, if their lungs are
badly diseased; and yet, because they are tn the
house they must not sitdown quiet; theymnstwalk
about the room as much and astutas th? strength
will bear, to get up a good circulation of blood. The
patients must keep in good spirits-be determined
to get well. This nas a great deal to ?lo with the
appetite, and la the great point to gam.
To despair of cure after such evidence of its po*-?
Bib Ult? in the worst cases, and moral.certainty in
all others, is sinful. Cr. Sehenck'a personal state
ment to the Faculty of his own cure was In these''
modest words: '.?*.?.
" Many years ago I was In the last stages bf con
sumption ; confined to my bed, and at one toa my
Sbya?clans thoughtthat leonid not Uveaweek; then,
kea drowning man catching at straws, I beard of
and obta'ned the preparations which I now offer to
tho public, tuii they made a perfect cure of me. It
seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my
whole system. They soon ripened the matter in my'
lungs, and I would spit up more than ?pint of offen
sive y Jowmatter every morning for a long time.
"As soon as that began to subside, my cough, .
fever ? al ns, and nigh ts weat? all beean to leave ma,
and LIV appetite became so great that lt vris with
alfa cutty that I could keep from eating too much.
I soon gained my strength, and have grown in flesh
ever since. '
" I was weighed shortly after my recovery,' 'added
the Doctor, "then looking like a mere skeleton ; my
weight was only ninety-seven pounds; my present
weight is two hundred and twenty-five (225) pounds,
and for years I have enjoyed u ninterrupted heal th."
Dr. Schenck has discontinued his professional
visits to New York and Boston. He or his son, Dr.
J. H. Schenck, Jr., still continue to see patients at '
their Office, No. 15 North Sixth Street, Philadelph la,
evsry Saturday from 0 A.M. to 8 P.ic Those whcT
wish a thorough examination with the Beaptro
meter will be charged $5. The Besp?rometer declares
the exact .condition of the lungs, and patients can
readily leam whether they are curable or not.
- The directions fo'r taking the medicines are adapt
ed to the intelligence even of a child Follow tn es e
directions, and kind JiaturewiU do the rest, except
lpgthat in some cases the Mandrake Pills are tobe
talton In Increased doses ; the three mfdicin es need
no other accompaniments than the ample Instruc
tions that accompany them: First create appetite..
Of returning health, hunger ls the most welcome
symptom.. When it conies, as it will come, let the1
despairing at once be of good cheer. Good blood at
onoe follows, the cough loosens, the nlsbt-eweat Is
abated In a short timo both of these morbid symp
toms are gone forever.
Dr. Schenck's medicines, are constantly kept In
.tens of thousands or famines. As a laxative or pur
gative, the Mandrake Pills are a standard prepara
tion; while the Purmonlc 8yrup, as a cu re of coughs
and colds, may be regarded as a propbylasteric
