Perhaps I would get married; am sure I would, if I had fifty acres of land, .a cow and horse, was healthy and willing to labor, and provided a nice, well raised girl could be found, brave enough to marry a poor man, and not be sor ry for it afterwards. If from ten to thirty acres of land could be spared from cultiva tion, I would plant it in peacan nut trees, which would, in twenty years prove a source of income to me. When past middle age, I would cultivate bees to obtain honey for home consumption at least, and, if the pasturage was -good, for market also; should certainly raise cattle, for an ample supply of milk and butter; there is no good living without milk and butter not much digestion, and but little perfect health. I would keep sheep- also, say four or five sheep to each head of cattle, and if my farm was too small to graze them, and no privi lege was offered me for grazing theni upon the public domain, I should sell out or move without sell ing, and locate myself, not in the far West, but within a line of six ty miles from the Atlantic and Gulf coast, extending from North Caro-I lina to Alabama; would seek a healthy, level pine land, witha li ght sandy soil, lying upon a sub stratum of red or yellow clay, and near enough streams to obtain cane pasturage for my cattle during the' winter. Our own State furnishes thousands upon thousands of such acres. Colleton, Beaufort, and Barnwell Counties fill the bill ex actly. I would plant corn, cotton, peas, potatoes, oats, and sugar-cane; would not spend one dolla-r .for commercial fertilizers, biLt all my dollars for sheep and cattle, and would keep as many as I could win ter, or that could winter themselves, if the number should reach one thousand, and the farm should be proportioned to the size of the herd. Cattle and sheep should herd together, to protect the latter from dogs; and if the pasture was within two miles, they should be dlriver; up, and penned in porta ble pens every night for at least: eight months of the year. In this genial latitude there are buf few days of winter so cold as to forbid the herding of cattl6in the open air. My stock of cattle and sheep would be the source of all the phosphates and ammioniates that could be dc sired. They would be livmng and portable phosphate beds, putting their deposits just where it' would do the most good, without the in terposition of lazy negrobs, mules, and an old rattling wagon to haul straw and .then haui out the lot treadings upon the fields. There* is nothing to prevent the gather ing of fabulous crops from a few acres enriched by this process. Moreover, it is a system requiring: but little labor, and that job labor, 1 in a large degree, just the kind our 1 fellow-citizens of African descent1 prefer to render. Our planters~ hire men to sit upon the fence and watch cotton-pickers. I would pre fer to pay the wages to a stock minder, and sit in my house and1 watch my highly fertilized acres from a cool piazza, through an ob ject glas. Where never less than one five hundred pouud bale of lint1 cotton'per acre is grown, and three is quite practicable, I should want( but few laborers, and but a little while at a time. Splitting rails, ploughing, hoeing, planting, cut ting oats, grinding sugar-cane-s can all be done by job, or day la bo.Frwhnvrth lno bar.n Forg whelds from plall f akingslaren ieolds frnton sms-l ara,we h l lnainss te,wt*1oenmls n t tern, with a doien mules. and its two or three dozen careless, lazy, tully the only system of agriculture that can redeem the South and save its people from destitution. Men of small capital should be gin on a small scale, always within their means. Let it be one cow and lalf, and four sheep, ifno more. In stead of hiring a man to drive up this miniature herd, better hire the herd to come without driving, by paying it every evening a few peas, oat sheaves, or fresh cut grass. Stock are more faithfully respon site to regularly paid wages than eight-tenths of our hirelings. Pen them in a movable pen forty by for ty feet, and move the pen every ten days; this will enrich land fast er, for the outlay, than any other method known to me. True, it covers less than an acre in one year ot eight months, but if this area be increased each year from fifty to one hundred per cent., it will in ten years develop a snug farm, and ,ts owner will find that he has been lowly but surely growing comfort able and independent. DR. J. W. OGILVIE, in Rural Garolinian for May. DEEP CULT1VATIN.-Plowing is simply a mechanical action, and-as such is of the greatest importance to the growing plant. By proper pulveiiza tion. you make the home of the plant more comfortable, allowing free move ineut of its lower limbs, in whatever direction instinct may select. Again, when in proper tilth, the plant can send its spongiole rootlets in every di rection in quest of food, so that, meta phorically speaking, "no pent up utica" made so by barriers of hard impenetra ble soil around and below, contracts its powers or circumscribes the limits in which it shall draw its supplies. But good mechanical action lead to, and is productive of chemical action -so their increased fertility is often superinduced by proper culture. Cer tain organic and mineral matters in the soil require the free access of the air in order that the o~xygen of the lat ter may exert its influence in bringing the former into soluble or available food for the plants. The mpore and deeper we stir the soil, the quicker and more effective this action. it matters not for this purpose, whether we turn the sod or not; the great object is to let in the air. Again, by deep plowing we render the soil warmer. This can be tested by placing the thermometer alter uately upon shallow and deep plowed ands, and the latter will always show an increased temperature, and a warm temperature is one of the favor able conditions of plant life. Again, we increase by deep plowing the ca pacity of the soil for retaining moisture, and thus partially perfect it against a drought which our summers usually bring. Indeed, we cannot even esti mate properly, the great good accom plished by keeping the soil constantly moist and warm-two things insured by deep cultivation. (&uthern Plantation. Is THE SOUTH A GRASS-GRO WING DoNTRY.-Look in your neighbor's ~otton field (your own is all right of ~ourse) and judge for yourself. Set 2pa slab, and on it engrave the legend, 'oue to Grass," and never say that nr climate does not suit that plant. -Goue to Grass" may be an appropriate pitaph fur the Rural Carolinian, vheu the planters and farmers of the outh conclude to to let it die. "May ye not] be there to see!" We ad roeate grass, but not in the cotton elds. Even crab grass is a good thing n its place, but that is not where an >her crop requires the use of the soil; o we may just hint that now is the ime to be lively with the ploughs and 0es. Crab grass is easy to kill when young and tender, but let it get foot old and strength, and we all know how hard it is to eradicate, especially f an unlucky shower should come ust after it has been hoed up. [Rural Carolinian. Those who make wool-growing a rominent part of their business ~sually give their flocks more or ess careful attention in winter, but hese animals are often neglected o0 the great loss of their owners, ~specially by those who keep but mall flocks and make other branch s5 of farming their main depend ~ne. Insufficient food and totalI ack of shelter often cause death t->I leciate the flock; an-1 a still ;reater loss is sustainedl in the re luced fleeces at shearing and in he death of lambs in spring, for in ralue both depends much on the :are previ:>usly given. An easy method of breaking glass o any required form is by making a mall notch, by means of a file, on the1 dge of a piece of glass; then make he end of a tobacco pipe, or a od of iron about the same size, red hot n the fire, apply the hot iron to the ~oteh, and draw it slowly along the urface of the glass, in any direction o please ; a crack will be made in the lass and will follow the direction ~f the iron.

DICKEN's EXPERIENCE.-A wri ter in Old and New says: "lav( you read carefully this melancholy life of Dickens, by which his friend Mr. Foster, has unconsciously sc nearly destroyed his fame? Sad as the book is, in all its sadness il teaches escential lessons. T h < first of those lessons is that, young as Dickens was wIen he began tc write, he had begun to learn muel younger, and that what he wrot( be had learned not in the schoo' of books, but in the school of men' It was in the habit of perfect worh and the absolute keenness and quickness of observation, and th( pitiless memory ofevery detail,thal he was becoming theartistof a pen cil so true and of precision so per fect that we take each charactci whom he really cared for into oui own homes andamong the people we have most nearly known. Il is the Micawber, the Nichola4 Nickleby,or Mrs Nickleby, the Sarr Weller, the Mr. Turveydrop, th( brother Cherryble, whom with his own eyes he had seen, whom b had heard with his own ears-it i, these who come intothe life of thit generation as living beings. As hiE own life goes on, often he searcheE in vain among his memories for any one who has not been pushed forward upon his stage, as a boy pushes his paper puppets forward with a wire; you see him painful ly hunting to-day for that which he shall describe to-morrow. He goes down to see poor wretcheE smoking opium that he might write out the mysteries of "Edwin Drood." IIe is but a few- weeks or months behind the printer, and the contrast between this goaded work of a man in arrears with for. tune and that fresh outpouring ol spontaneous recklessness tells the whole story. But even at the worst,Dickens is so true that he will not tell anything but the thingE that he bas seen and heard. MAKING A PrANo.-It t a k e e nearly four years to make one in strument; three years and some months to season the wood, aird three months to form the parts, No less than sixteen different kinds of wood enter into the for mation, embracing the softest, toughest,hardest, heaviest, lightest and most compact grain. In the "action" alone there are eleven dif ferent kinds of wood. The piano, moreover, is cosmopolitan, from the fact that the vegetable, ani mal and mineral kingdoms of the world contribute to the composi tion. While spruce pine from north ern Newv York, maple from Massa chusetts, pine and ash from~Michi gan ,cherry from Pennsylvania,wal nut from India, and poplar from West Virginia, a f ter passing through choppers,sawyers,raftmen and inspectors, as well as buckskin of four kinds,first from the wild deer and then from the mnanufacturers, are necessary, this country does not furnish all the material re quired. Six kinds of felt, four kinds of cloth, besides silver for the plates, silver gilded strings, cast iron, many kinds of paper, as also ivory, ebony and varnish, are all imported from other countries. lui an ordinary piano there are five hundred screws, one nundred and seventy strings, eighty-five keys and five hundred and twenty key and tuning pins. In a seven otave square about ninety square feet of vencering is used, and in the "action" alone there are no less than 5,072 pieces. From the foregoing some conception of the requisites of a square, upright or rand piano may be formed. Scholasticus, a bald pate and a barber were traveling together. Ealting in a deser-t they agreed ach to keep awake for four hours nd to watch the baggage in turn. t fell to the barber's lot to watch first, and he, being a wag, played the foolish fellow the trick of shav ng his head before waking him at he end of his wvatch. Aroused from his.snooze, the fool began to ub his head,and finding that it was ald, said to himself, "This bar er is a poor fornaught, for, by istake, he has awakened the bald ate instead of me." "Oh, I've got into a neighbor ood now which just suits me!" xclaimed a west-sider as he en ered a streetcar and shook hands with a friend. "Good, is it?" You bet ! I can stand in my oor and and see a dog-fight every alf hour, and the police come round there as often as twice a ay and knock somebody down wo or three tim~es! it's some sat sfaction now to pay rent."
