MR. EDYTUR-When folks goes a travlin to furrin parts, they take a little book along, to keep what they call a dairy of all they see and bear in thar travils, and the marmers and customs of the eountry, and how the people looks, what they eat, and how they ,ook it, and how they dress, &c. As I am on. my journy through. his valoy of smiles and tears, I hought I would send you my lairy about the customs down 1ere: asther aint no _nanners_s ant say nothin bout em. Uncle 3iah had a workin, all the folks ias workins. Uncle Si, he told ku'nt Jerusha how he tad axed Lbout all the folks in the neibor-l iood,'to a fence makin, and she nust put up some quilts, for when ,he men come to a workin, the vomen and childern, and the dogs ii come, too. So Aunt Jerusha carded bats enough for toe quilts me eumfort and a cradle quilt, Lnd fixed all up by Fridy night; 'ou see they always has em on a 3aturdy, so they can dance all ight and rest of Sundy, and then ,hey will be all reddy to go to vork Mundy, andw when its preach n day, they all go from. dancin o chureb, they all belong to the ~burch, their doxoligies is, that bhars a time for all things. Well ~ou see they work hard, dance ard, and when its time to go to' >reaebin, well. they shout hard.I Uncle Si, he had a workin, its one >f the custums of this country, tunt Jerusha killed two nice fat aoats, and she baked six oven. 'ulls of tatei- custards, and peach >ies, and one oven of dutch-bread,I L big dirt oven, I mean, what1 iolds abou', twenty; loaves at a >akin, she baked the jints, and ~ooked the sides, with sour cr:out und turnips. in four big wash po0ts, nd one wash pot full of chicken nd dumplins, and a wash pot full >f rice, anid we parched a oven full ~f good coffee, well I never seed uch a waiste of good things in my ife, 1 thought, and we baked a >ig pound cake and trimned it with rtificial flowers, and hid it whar is body could git a glimps of it mntil.the right time cum, Saturdy nornin cumn, I was up so,t watch for begginin of the sho Fust thing I1 seed before sun up, ras a man and a oman and two :ildern the baby and nurse, corn nin the back way, that was Uncle i's cusin ; next, ther come a wag ;in load, they had only five chil Iren and a wash pot to cook din ir in you see, that was Uucle ~iah's half br othber. Direckly thar ~um a whole passel of galls, and hey all begin to cum so fast, and o many, I couldent count em, rter a little 1 bearn the ga, a ~iglin and a lookin out at the win era and doors, well, I never, 1 hote about John Rogers, fur thar ome a man and his wife, and she iad nine small children and one at he breast, and three .dogs, that as Uncle Siah's oldest brother, nd ther fatmlies.kept a comin till ine o'clock, in all about ten or ftenann.daarnn.namn. brekfus, dog.and all. At twelv they sent, wiat they call hunch, that was tra's full of perwision cut up, and tte men all eat thar, and handedte galls some at the house and th.y eat. the men bilt fence and thewomen quilted, and thar want bit one man at the house all day and he was a crip ple, he thre*W the galls needles, and talked deet. Bout five the men come ut, the work done the quilts was ou;, and the eatin be. gun, thar wE twenty four women set to the fiit table, then the men eat next, and they eat. it done me good to see they relished that dinner, they tid, I cant subseribe the seen. it wts a site ; when that' porformin was over the galls slipped off to a rume, and they slicked up, ani the men washed ther hands, tnd Uncle Siah he piled up literd nots on a scaffol to make a big lite, one at the front, and one at the back.of the house, and they begin to play sister phyby, and they went roun the rosemary bush a time or too, when all in once we heard a fiddle, ther come in four young men, two on em had fiddles and one had a three cornered piece of iron he beat with a little stick , but lazy me you orto seed what the tother one had, it was a-thing looked like the dady of the others, sorter like a cofin, and sorter like a fidel, they called it a base phial, well it was full of curious noise, he sawed acros it, and I wish I may never, if it dident make a nois like a bull frog with a soar throte, and when all begin.to play together it was mellerdillious. the boys jumped up, pulled off their coats, and every boy run and jerked a gal onto the fore, and then the fun begun, none of your bowin and scrapin,tt was jist dance as hard as thtr what I call dancin and they kep it up till Sundy mornin, when they all left, some to go to church and some to bed to sleep. I forgot the pound cake, it was brote in, at twelve, and boys and gals walked for it, and when the gun fired the one what had the stick got the kaik, it was a kaik worth walkin for, it was trimmed with flowers, offin Ant Jerusha's weddin bun nit, and holey lims with the red berrys on, and then when we laid ofr the quilts we took sum of the poke berris and spotted it all over, makin it look as purty as could be, that is some of the customs of this country. Well Uncle Siah's fence is bilt, Aunt Jerusha's quilts is done, and now the cottin fever is ragin down here, they never had it in these lparts so bad before, only a tetch of it last year, this year it has covered ten akers some places, and only two or three in thers; but I think it will soon die ut, these parts wont do for that :isease to prewale, without guan ner, and it is a stranger here, nev cir seen sich a thing. I have hearn people talk about a child of natur, well if these peop)le aint natur's childern, she never had none, and think she was a powerful ugly ld oman if her childern tuck .af ter her, and she never larnt nuthin nother, jist let em grow up in ig noimus; she dident know much herself, I dont reckon, and they ir mighty scace of preachs in these parts, and whr is here dont sit em, they want a mian what is alled to preach, one what dont at, nor sleep, nor wear nothin, what dont need no money, and an preach out of the bible, and not ofin a paper, a plaiin man, what aint book larnt ; what do tese people know about the tower f bedalum, or the construction of erusalem, pr that old man what at grass like a horce, that is all atin, it is plain inglish what is wanted, that will tell em to shout, ad scratch, and hollerglory halle uyer, do try and send us sich a ne he mustent weair nothin but! hmspun, and a wheat straw hat, ad he must not mention money nce, you see, its the custom of his fur country. Mr. Edytur, if I an find out any more of their ustoms le let you now, dont git tired a readin of this, for I want o send y-ou another leaf out of my airy, its curus, I tall you, I hearn tell of a man a seein the helef'ant, ut I can see the monkeys and all ay day, did you ever hear tell of' the old woman what lost her hus and, she was a standin by tag orpse a lookin mity trouble-like, ad she says, old man, now you are dead and laid out, you look nity bad, but.gentlemer you have been a hoss ; that was her silly uizzy, pore creetur, I have found her down here.

John Smith-you've heard cf him-is very bashful ; is too bash ful, in truth. He was born and raised in the country. His fither gave him a good education, and allows him plenty of money. But John, with all other attachments, never could accustom himselt to the society of females, not because he did not like the girls, but be cause his shy nature would not permit him to associate with the tair sex. It once happened-not 'ery long ago either-that John's' tather had some very important business to transact in the city. Ie also had some very particular affairs to attend to at home, which demanded his personal attention, and not possessing the power of ubiquity, he delegated his son John to transact that in the city. John, being thus commissioned, immediately proceeded to the city, and to the residence of his father's old friend, whom he found to be a very nice old gentleman, with a beautiful daughter, and gold spec tacles. John was eshered into the par lor (a new thing for him), and motioned to a seat-no ! a soft; (another new thing.) But we must use his own lan guage: I took my seat and made observation. Everything was fine ! Fine carpets, fine sofas, tine tables, fine curtains, fine books, fine every thing, and especially a fine young lady, who was dressed in fine silk, fine satin, and who had fine curls, and a fine appearance generally. After chatting with the old gen tleman a few minutes, he took down his hat, told me to make my self at home for an hour or two, and left-left me alone with his ia'ite,x ra ndl misfchievas boy, the young lady's brother. I didn't relish the situation at all. The idea of keeping a city belle engaged in conversation for two hours ; perdition ! Silence reigned in the parlor for a short time, you may bet. Iamused myself as much as possible with the boy-that is, I loaned him my knife and watch key, and watched him cut holes in the carpet with one anA spoil the other. I don't know what I would have done had it not been for that boy-ho was so good to attract one's attention, you know. It's true he asked some start ling questions, occassionally, such as this, for instance : 'Are you goin' to court sister Emily?' but such things must be expected un der such circumstances. Miss Emily, thinking, no doubt, that to be a good hostess, that she must her guest engage in conver sation, asked mue 'how 1 liked country life,' etc. She said that 'it must be a beautiful sight to see the laborers, male and female, romping on the new mown hay on Newv Year's Day; that she al ways did think she would like to spend a Christmas in the country a nut-gathering with the village lads and lasses ; that it ailways had been a mystery to her, how they got eggs off the trees with out breaking~ them.' In return, I thouget to keep up my point of the conversation, iL was necessary for me to quote po etry and the line, wvhien I did. Aong other quotations, 1 unfor tunately repeated the well-known line of Shakspeare . " There is a divinitry that shapes our ends, Roug'h bew them as~ we will." At.thisjuncture, the boy, who had perched hiiself upon my knees, looked very earnestly ini my face and said: 'Divinityshaped the end ofyour nose mighty curus.' i'm certain that I wished somebody would spank the young rascal. We talked <>f hills, mountains, v-alleys, cataracts-I believe I said water falls, when the boy spoke up and said : 'W hy, sister's grot a trunk full of 'em up stairs-pap says they are made of horse-hair.' This revelation struck terror in to me and blushes into the cheeks of my fair companion. It began to be very apparent to me that I must be very guarded in what I said, lest said boy might slip in his remarks at unealle dfor places ; in fact. I turned my con versation to him. I told him he ought to go home with me, and see what nice chickens we h ad in the country. Unluckily I men tioned a yoke of calves my broth ers owned. The word calves ru ined all. The little follow looked up and said : Sister's got a doz en of 'em, but she don't wear 'eml only when she goes up 'town o' windy days'. 'Leave the room, yau unman nerly little wretch !' exclaimed Emily, 'leave immediately !' 'T know what, you want me to leave for,' replied he ; 'you can't fool me-you want to sit in that man's lap, and kiss him like you did Bill Simmons the other day you can't fool me, I'll jes' tell you. Gini me some candy, like he did ; then I'll go. You think i,eause you've got the Grecian bend that you're smart. Guess I know a thing or two. I am mad at you, anyhow, 'cause pap would a bought me a top yesterday, if it hadn't been for you getting them curls, dog-gone yer! You needn't turn so red in the face, 'cause I can't see it for the paint. There ain't no use winkin' at me with that glass eye o' yourn, 'cause I ain't goin' out'n here, now that's what's the matter wit.h the purps. I don't care if you arc twenty eight years old, you ain't no boss o' mine, you old fool ' That is all of the story that John related. He says he don't know how he got out of the scrape. Contingencies. We have read some very amus ing a-:counts of the facility with which almost any imaginable arti cle may be brought under the head of Congressional "contingen cies" ; but we think the following little bill, run up at the last ses sion of the'United States Senate, which is published as literally correct by the New York Tribune, is a little ahead of anything of the kind we have yet seen. ldoz. cosmetiqucs, . . . .$3 00 1 box honey soap . . . . 9 00 11 gal. cologne . . . . 15 5) 1 gal. bay rum . . . . . 8 50 5.gals. alcohol . . .. 25 50 1 qt. spts. camphor . . . 2 50 i shaving brushes . . . 12 00 4 doz. plate brushes . . . 24 00 7j lbs. bathing sponge . . 35 37 }~ ~ -de-ru " 6 0 i doz. flesh brushes . . . 9 00 24 boxes lemons . . . - 365 00 191 lbs. sugar . . . . . 36 29 6 bottles extract of ginger . 3 00 12 doz. palm leaf fans . . 15 00 120 extra Scotch wood pin cushions . . . . . 122 00 A. W. Winkfield, furnishing tea and making the same for the use of the Senate . 51 50 And yet the distinguishcd gen tlemen who occupy seats in the United States Senate all consider themselves honest, incorruptib! patriots! Cosmetiques, honey soap, col. ogne, bay rum, alcohol, camphor, shaving brushes, plate brushes, bathing sponge, (suggestive !), mugs, flesh brushes, lemons, sugar, ginger, fans, p)ineushionlS and "A. W. Wink field furnishing tea and making the same for the use of the Senate !" We might stand the soap, cologne -and bathing sponge for the filthy, and thec flesh brushes for the itchy Senators; but every honest man will be as tonished~to learn that all these articles are paid for out of the peo ple's money. Admitting the legal right of Senators to use all kinds of faincy goods and luxuries at government expense, we ask if any Senator with one spark of moral princ~iple would make himself a party to such a swindle as is implied in the use of cosnmetiques and bay rum at the.people's expense ? The little list we publish above serves an admirable purpose. it shows the rank c.orruption, the un parall'eled profligacy that per ades governmental circles at Washington. Let the reader pic ture to himself George Wasing ton or Thomas Jefferson using al cohol anid flesh brushes at the ex pense of the people who elected them. and the con trast will be suf iciently sugestive. Wilmington Star. FEMALE SoCIETn.-You know my opinion of~ female society. Without it we should degenerate into brutes. This observation ap )lies wvith tenfold force to young men and those who are in the prime of~ manhood, for after a cer' an time in life, the literary man~ ar' make a shift to do without he~society of ladies. To a young man nothing is so important as a: spirit of devotion (next to hisj reator) to some amiable woman, hose image may oce: py his heart; uard it from the pollution which esets it on all sides. A man ought t o chose his wif.: as Mrs. Prim rose. did her wedding-gown, for quali ties that "wear well." One thing1 t last is true, that if matrimony as its cares, celibacy has no plea ure, a Newton, or a mere scholar, may find,.emp!oyment in s6tudy; a an of literary taste can receive n books a-po werful auxiliary, but man must have have a bosom. friend, and children around him o cherish and-stpport the drear i..nes ofr old...-.Tn Randolp. The New order or ,nings Close Cultivation. The following extracts copied fropi the Rural Gentleman, an able Agricultural Magazine published in Baltinore, are commended t& the attention of agriculturists, as containing good sound sense, which if practiced at this tiina, nusyt redound to the advantage of Soui'tbern planter and farmer; We are glad to observe that the mistaken idea of "pride of acres"" is being gradually dispelled throughout the Middle and.South ern States, and that the cultivators of the soil are begining to realize from experience that small farms, with good tillage arid a liberal use of manure, are the surest means of success. And .this result may be attributed to the changed labo'r system of these sections, and thfe spirit of their agricultural press. Now, if we expect our land to' yield abundantly, we must feed it well-feed it, too, before it gets hungry, and rest it ereit becomes weary, as an eminent Fnglish' agriculturist once said. There is also a great deal in the manner in which we apply fertilizers. Dr. Voeleker, chemist to. the Royal Agricultural Society,. has "estab lished the fact that all manures are better applied upon the surface, to be washed in by. the rains, than turned under by the plough. You should study the nature.pf your soil, so to know what.ma nures to use. New Peruvian guano hap ammonia in excess, while the Orchilla possesses valn able phosphates and alkaline salts -hence of great value when com bined. . - A standardi super-pbospbate is the giant. manure, being bone phosphate concentrated "withasul. phuric acid, produeing the sol-ube phosphoric acid-the. chemit' consituents of which absorbs a'm monia from the atmosphere. "Rhodes'" is, we believe recogniz ed as a standard super-phesphate." and, being manufactured -upon 'a large scale, can be sold to the farmer at a mnch lotrer price than he can produce it for himsef. E farmer should select stin d ingredients and corn binp for:bw.it - self-it being well; known that ammonia and phosphates are the leading properties to be obtainec in sufficient quantities for*agrie tural use-the other ingredients of plant food being firnjshec bV the soil and atmosphere. So much for manures. Another idea before closing. We conted that the dignify of agri&uKlf6e' should be recognized by the-young men of the country, who-shoald adopt it as a pr*ofesion. Avoid: the crowded e:ties and tow ns, to engage ini the uncertainties pof commercial life. Remember, that if agriculture is allowed to languish,' that 'eing the true basis of the nation's wealth, dire confusion in' every other pursuit muist in evitably flWlow. Attend well to' the fountatin from which lows alF our prosp)erity, and we will hear less complaint about hard times and not hing to do. Finally, we urge upon young farmers the importance and valoe of' criedit-which is egnal to capi tal. Let "a farmer's note" notb64 a by-.word with banks and money lenders, but representing,gubstad tial security. Smith courted Miss Brown, a d so did Jones. She married Joes, despite Smith's growins.. Wijh pain in his breast, he went det West. This was in '48. (Now don't forget the date.) 1 I es than two years lhe had dried'his tears, but refusing to mingl'e, be remained single. In 1864 he con cided to go down and visit the old neighbors in his- native town. As he approached he met a damsel aged fi fteen .-There was. some thing in her features he remember ed to have seen- "It must he her daughter," he hastened to conclude, so he 'ven~tured to aceost her, (not thinking to be rude). This dialogne ensued: Smith (who lisped a little) "A'n't your names.Joneth ?" Miss Jone-"Yes, sir." Smith-"A"nt you ThamnJoneth's daughter ?" Miss -Yes sir." Smith-"Well, Mith Joneth, I came ptaguey near being your father, oneth!"
