Dark and heavy-bosomed Clouds,
Denning on ibe streams of wind,
Dressing on in frowning crowds,
Throngs before und throngs behind;
Sweep the high and empty air,

O, descend not for the bird
That delights to ride the waves!
Have ye not already heard
Of those black and whirling graves,
Sens on gallant vessels piled,
Screams of fear and sorrow wild?
O'er the deep mid-ocean parts,
Many a son and father sails ;

Anxious at the growing gales.
Cbnin those mighty reckless wings,
"Which the Hying Tempest swings!
Change and lie in softer light ;
Drop the glittering rainbow showers;
Bring again the'snowdrops white,

See her own bright sun arise!

This was the way tho lather taught his son

"By the way, Lyman," continued the oh
man, "I have discovered who it is that has beei
robbing my money drawer.
"Ah I" uttered the son, turning at that mo
incut to arrange u piece of calico, which didu'
need any fixing at all. "And who is it ?"
"Wilton Cunningham."
"I shouldn't wonder in the least. I neve

"No; you can never make him believe it'

"I'll tell you." returned tho old man. "La*
week I took particular notice of some silve
dollars that were in the money drawer, anil
determined that 1 would set a trap for tho thie!
I took four of 4ho pieces and crossed thei:
very carefully, and in such a manner that on
not acquainted with the secret would not b
likely to notice it; then I put them back hit
the drawer. Next morning one of them wa
gone, and as all our trade the day before ha
been barter or credit. I knew that it could u<
have been given in change. Of course m
suspicious fell upon Wilton, and 1 at once la
gan to look about to see where he had spoil

"Certainly it is," said fjyman.
'?There can he on doubt about it,"added iV%
old man. in a confident tone; and then, with
sarcastic sneer, he said: "His seeming hot:
esty is nil the result of fear, lie dares in
make a bold trade, but he can steal in the da; I
though."
CHAPTER IT.
T!IK ACC.'SATU'N.
Jits! then a customer entered,and while Mi
Randall was trading with him. Wilton Cm
urn -ham came in. The latter was not ovi
one-and-twenly, and though "appearances nr
deceit fid," yet it would be bal d work t
make a physiognomist believe that he Could b
capable of theft. The young clerk weid in
' mediately to his desk, ami as soon as Mr. Rai
' dull was at liberty, lie joined him.
??Von need not open your books this morn
ir.g sir." said the trader.
The young man looked round in surprise.
"Mr. Cunningham," continued Kandall, ??
have discovered who it is that has bei ti, for s
ong a time, robbing my money-drawer."
"Ah 1"
"Yes, sir. 1 have trapped him, and yo
mil}' judge of my surprise upon finding it to b
none other than Wilton Cunningham."
"Do you mean me, sir?" uttered the yoiini
man. stepping down from his stool and buhl I
facing ins accuser.
??Of course I do. and I have proof of what
say."
"N'? man. Mr. Randall, can produce a pron

-Not quite so fast. sii. r>id you not pay I
Mr. Willey the rent for the house which you

"1 did, sir."
? And did you not give liim this dollar?'
asked Mr. Kandall. producing tlie dollar he Inn
crossed.
"1 might have done it. sir, for I paid bin
several silver dollars."
"Ay," returned the old man. with a sort o
triumphant look, ? and that dollar was sttilei
from my drawer last Wednesday night, and yoi
paid it away on the same night. Now, hoi

?If I paid it to Mr. Willey?"

"Yes. some you have laid away! f/iut (lol
lar, sir. you took from my drawer last Wcdnci
day evening. You stole it !"
"Mr. Kandall," said Wilton, in a tone o
calm indignity. -I hardly know bow to tiiee
your charge. To deny i: would be only to eon
tradict you; but I do deny it, and I call oi
(iod to witness that I never, to my kuowledgt
1 wronged a man to the amount of a cent.
1 shall see Mr. Willey, sir."
I' "Do so. 1 will ijo with yob at mice."
Accordingly Mr. Kandall and his clerk se
oil'. They Ibmul Mr. Willey, ami thai genth
man, though he felt much friendship lor tb
young man, could not but declare that tb
j crossed dollar had been received from him
H Wilton could not deny it ; he had not notice*
e any particular marks upon the money he Ii;
1 naid. and he could rtnlv rmlornin tin- !u?<>vhi.?
NlNVr, APRIL 6,1867.
(irav/er. Tic felt grieved to soo that a shulc of
suspicion rested upon the face of Mr. Willey,
and lio then saw how strong was the evidence
agniwjBt him. He turned away to hide the tear
that started from his eye, and his heart swelled
with n painful emotion.
'?"^'Squire Bullnrd at homo ?'? asked Mr.
Handull, after the facts in tho case had been
sufficiently discussed.
"No. He's gone down to Portland, but he'll
be a* home to-night," returned Mr. WiHcy.
"Good heavens! Mr. Randall, you do not
mean to make a legal investigation of this
case?" cried Wilton, turning pale and tremb
ling like an aspen.
"Most assuredly I do," calmly returned the
trauer. "If you are innocent you will have
nothing to fear."
"And suppose I cannot prove that inno
cence ?"
"That's j list what I'm afraid of," half ironi
cally returned Randall.
"<) God!" ejaculated the youth, clasping
his hands together in tortured agony. "What
have 1 done that 1 should come to this ?"
Mr. >\ illey betran to show evident sitrns ol
ropijRXanec that lie had been - instrumental in
bringing this about, and as ttandall noticed it.
he made haste to cut the meeting short.
"You need not go back to the store with
me." he said to his clerk, "but 1 shall see you
this Ovoninir;"

Wilton Cunniilghum turned his steps home

??But von don't really mean to try Wilton for

"Of course 1 do. I>,. you suppose a man

??But you might turn hint off, father, and

"You don't know all, Lyinan. The young

"But he hasn't t!:,: en; ital."
"He ein raise it. though. That old Jones

offered to advance him money if he will open
a new store."
??That would be ratlicr dangerous business
for you," remarked Lymtin, in a thoughtful
mood;

turned, with considerable satisfaction. "This

Scene.?A Court of Justice in North Caro
lina.
A beardless disciple of Themis rises and thus
addresses the Court: "May it please your
Worships, and you, gentlemen of the jury, ninee
it has become my fortune (good or bad I will
not say.) to exercise myself in legal disquisition,
it-has never befallen mo to bo obliged to prose
cute so direlully marked assault?a more wilful,
violent, and dangerous battery, and finally a
more diabolical breach of tho peace, has seldom
happened in a civilized country ; and I dare
say it seldom has been your duty to pass upon
one so shocking to benevolent feelings, as this
which took place over at Capiuiu Rice's in
in this county; but you will hear from the
witnesses."
The witnesses being sworn, two or three
were examined and deposed : One said that he
beard the noise but did not sec the fight; an
r>ther that tie saw (be row, but did not know
who struck first, and another that he was very
drunk and couldn't tell much about the skrim

Lawyer Chops?I am sorry, gentlemen, to

the witnesses examined. It" arises, gent le

I known, as I now do, that I had a witness who
was acquainted with all the circumstances of
the case, and who was able to make himself
clearly understood to the court and jury, I

Urn in Crop vs. Cotton Crop in the South.
Tt is computed that half of the cotton crop
of the past year has already gone to tho market,
$im lmf) produced ^to tho cotton-growers, a
hundred and thirty-five millions of dollars.
Some weeks ago the New Orleans papers reck
oned the amount at over a hundred ^millions,
and considerable (jUantities of cotton have come
forward since. The cotton-growing ' States
have received and appropriated'the sivails of
half the crop, and it is even Said that the'? re-"
liiainder will hardly suffice to meet the demands
of creditors for supplies heretofore received;,
and for pay for the supplies .which they will need
before smother grain or cotton crop can be pro
duced. The avails of tho cotton crop, of the
past season will leave little money in the South.
Money io there very scsirce. had is likely so to
he while the South continues to depend' upon
the West f. r corn, Hour and bacon, and upon
the East for many articles of manufacture that
might be made at home. The cotton crop . of
the current year, though the season may bo more
favorable than the last, will not, as is thought,
exceed, that of the past jcuri Outturn gwriy??g
will be checked by want of capital to pay
labour sind purchase supplies, lu this state of
the case, it is the obvious policy of the cotton
planters to direct their attention more earnestly
than heretofore to the production of grain and
provisions.?Preparations for cotton culture
must he inside in this month or earlier, but it
is reported from various quarters that no in
creased breadth of land is to be put in cotton,
and man)- plantations Worked las? year' have
boon abandoned.
The great resources of the South is. therefore,
to be found in an application of a large force to
the cultivation of corn. This crop, which may
be matured in August next, will afford groat
relief. Its cultivation requires less labor than
that of cotton, rice or sugar, and it. is the
material not oidy for bread, but for animal
food. The value of a crop of corn equal to all'
the necessities of the South for food, rarssi W
vastly greater than the value even of an in
creased crop of cotton rft present prices.
Rations for fifty thousand individuals for five
months co-.t a million of dollars. A hundred'
millions of dollars would not supply withrationsr
for one year a greater number thajt two millions'
of people, or one fourth of the population of
the Southern States. The first object of the
Southern planters will be, no doubt, to produce
an ample supply of grain and provisions for tho
ensuing year, though labor and capital may be
for that purpose withdrawn to- some extent
from the cotton culture.
[ National 'Intelligencer'.'
Fattening Hogs.
The editor of the Oermuntow'n Telegraphy
having made inquiries of a farmer.as to the
profitableness of pork raising and the best way
to feed hogs, received a reply, the substance of
which was: 1. That feeding grain1?especially"
corn?to hogs, will pay better Irian' would tho1
same amount fed to any other kind of farm"
stock. ? They should be fed in-such a manner
as to gain a pound a day. In other words, the
hog, sit a year old, should weigh three hundred
sind sixty live pounds. Creator weight than4
this can be produced, but the increase would
not pay the extra expense necessary to procure
it. '1. One bushel of good sheHciKcorn, made
into meal and fed to the hogs regularly, ittstfcn
quantity as to prevent them from fretting fov
more, will produce from live to seven pounds
of pork during the months of October and No
vember. After this season of the year, mote
f ed is required and less pork produced accord
ing to the quantity of feed. 3 An important
point is to keep the hog growing sill the time
?not starving them to mere bog frames, during
the Summer, and then attempting to finish off
quickly on the arrival id' eold weather. 4.
When put up in the fall?indeed during tho
entire season?a comfortable shelter should ho
provided, so that the hogs may avail themselves
of it whenever n storm occurs, but when the
