The following must be/an old story, but if so it is good enough to pass a second reading : ! ] In a most delightful country town in New Jersey, called Bordentown, the Delaware makes a short turn to the westward, and has in con- : sequence thereof, worked for itself quite a deep bay on the Jersey shore. This bay, from its being protected from the winds and "out of tide," is a favorite harbor of the raftsmen who j 1 annually come down that noble river by hun- I dreds, bringing acres of lumber, much of it ] from the very source of the river, in the State of Aew iork. iNow early in the spring ot Jo | ?when the Camden and Araboy Railroad was ] first put into operation, (the railroad, by the by, runs round the edge of the above mention- ! ed bay,) a certain Sam Sims, with a young man who rejoiced in the name of Ichabod Two die, came down the river on a raft of white pine boards, and about 8 o'clock of a cold, blustry, cloudy night were busily engaged se- ; < curing their raft in the above mentioned bay, when Ichabc d was startled by a sort of belching, rumbling noise; he turned to Sam, and j with a long g-avc face, .almost whispered : " What is that?" Sam shook his hoary head, but spake not, the sound came nearer, but nothing was to be seen; they stood still in amazement, the silence only broken by the superhuman noise, and an occasional exclamation of " S-h-u-a !" from : Ichabod. Roth stood with their eyes in the direction of the sound, when round the point below, not three hundred yards from them, came a thing?a very demon?belching out i smoke and fire, uttering the most horrid groans ; and shrieks. " Oh Lord ! oh Lord !' shouted Ichabod.? i 'Sam, Sam, give me that axe ! here comes the devil! Give me that axe you darned old fool! j Lord ! Lord! Lord ! Will the folks to hum < ever believe that I come down here to tide wa-1 ter to be tuck right off by the old devil!' j i Ichabod whirled the axe around his head in regular backwoods fashion, and stood his } ground like a man; but on came the devil, { apparently straight for the raft. Oh, how the I sparks flew, (they had not then invented the i v\a ^ An i a?\amL a..4aL am A T aV> a Vv a/I 1 Aa1?A/1 va11 n I 1 V pairuL spare. cuiuiier,^ icuuuuu iwrcu iuuuu, ^ old Sam was making for the outshore side of t the raft; there was no time to think about it, ; 1, it was freezing and cold and the ice was floating . y in small cakes down the river; but Ichabod, j dropping the axe and singing out. "You will ; p have a darned good swim to cateh ine !' made w ouc jump to the side of the raft and another tl overboard, and struck out for the Pennsylvania shore, at least a mile distant. d In the meantime Sam, in running across the n raft in his fright, caught his foot and down i he went He got up, looked round, the devil y< had passed, and was puffing and blowing up e< the hill beyond. < pi Sam called Ichabod back, and they proceed- j I ed to the tavern, where they related their ad- es venture much to the amusement of their fel- ru low-raftsmen. th nullifying a bad lease. There is a shrewd and wealthy old landlord away down in Maine, who is noted for driving > his 4'sharp bargains, by which he amassed a ' C large amount of property. He is the owucr t0 lif ri l?r/M ?.? ?. I - - J.. .m_. i ... . . YO >aid of liim that lie is not over scrupulous of his rental charges, whenever he can tind a ^ customer whom he knows to be irspotmibi.? i Ilis object is to lease his house for a term of ; years to his best tenants, and get the utter- ' most farthing in the shape of reut. ; A diminutive Frenchman called ou hiiu j last winter, to hire a dwelling he owned in Portland, aud which had long remained empty. References were given, and the landlord. ? ascertaining that the tcnaut was a man ^after his own heart" immediately commenced to "jew" him. He found that the tenement appeared to suit the Frenchman, and he placed = an exorbitant price upon it, the leases were f drawn and duly executed, and the tenant re- 1 moved into his new quarters. I fr I'dod kindling fires in the house, it was of found that the chimuies wouldn't "draw" and w the building was filled with suioke. The win- i si dow sashes rattled at night, and the cold air tl rushed in through a hundred coevices about j b! the house, until now unnoticed. The snow jni melted upon the roof, and the attics drenched j ti with leakage. The rain pelted, ard our ' p Frenchman found a 'natural' bath room upon j ai the second floor?but the lease was signed, p and the landlord chuckled. ; ti < 1 hav been vat you called 'sucked in,' vis ? zis dam mutton," muttered our victim to him- J self, a week afterwards, "but n importr, ve ir sid see vat ve sal see." tl Next morning he arose bright and early, $ and while passing down, he encountered the o landlord. tl "Ah ho!?Boa jour, monsieur," said he, h in his happiest luauuer. j u "Good day, sir. How do you like your ^ house ?" I si "All! mousieur?elegant, beautiful, mag- i c nificent. Eli ion monsieur, I have but ze u one regret!" ; 0 "Ah ! What's that ?" ^ "Monsieur, I sail live iu zat house but tree : c little year." ; 3 '0 "HVH trv . "1 find bv vat you call ze lease, zat you tl have give mc ze house for but tree year, and 1 o very much sorry for zat." o "]>ut of course you can have it longer if w you wish" ; d "Ah, monsieur, sal be very mooch glad if I v have zat house so loiiy as 1 j>leOse?eh nionsieur ?" Oh certainly sir." " Trts Bun, luonsieur! I sail valk right to your offees, and you sail give me vat vou call ze lease for zat rnaison, iust so lony as I tl sal vant ze house. Eh, monsieur ?" s "Certainly, sir. You cau stay there your ! j, life time, if you like." . ^ "Ah, monsieur?I have very much tank g you for ze accommodation." E The old lease was destroyed aud a new one t was delivered in form to the Frenchman, giv- ; j iug him possession of the premises for "such c a period as the leessee shall desire the same, t he payiug the rent promptly, &c." v The noxt morniug our crafty laudlord was j c passing the house just as the Frenchman's last i \ loud of furniture was being started from the c door; an hour afterwards, a messeuger called t on him with a legal tender, for the rent of 1 davs. occouipauied with a note as fol- j v*e? ? / / lows: 11 "Monsieur?I have biu smoke?1 have biu i J drouned?I have bin freeze to death in ze ! 1 house vat I have hire of you forze period as 1 ) t iuay desire.

Bon jour, monsieur." i It is needless to add that our landlord hap v never since been known to give up "a bird in j f Un Imd fvx two in the bufiiie#." j 2 % C THE SHORTEST WAY. Some twelve years ago, Napoleon, (Indiana) was celebrated for two things, one for the carousing propensities of its citizens, and the other for the great number of cross-road in its vicinity. It appears that an Eastern collector bad stopped at Dayton to spcud the night and gain some information respecting his future course. During the evening he became acquainted with an old drover who appeared well posted as to the geography of the country, and the collector throught he might as well inquire in regard to the best route to different points to which he was destined. "I wish to go to Greenfield," said the collector; "now.which is the shortest way?" "Well, sir," said the drover, "you had better go to Napoleon, and take the road leading nearly north." The traveller noted it down. "Well, sir, if I wish to go to Edinburg?" "Then go to Napoleon and take the road west." "Well, if I wish to go to Vernon ?" "Go to Napoleon and take the road southwest." Or to Indiannapolis V added the collector, eyeing the drover closely, and thinking he was being imposed on. Go to Napoleon and take the road northwest.' The collector looked at his note book; every direction had Napoleon on it; he began to feel his mettle rise, and he turned once more to the drover with? Suppose, sir, I want to go the devil V The drover never smiled, but scratched his head, and after a moment's hesitation, said : Well, my dear sir, I don't know of any shorter road you could take than to go to Napoleon." j THAT HARP.

RTJIT AS AN ARTICLE OF FOOD. < Were we of the South.to cultivate and use 1 uit more as a standard article of food, instead 1 eating it indiscriminately between meals. f e should be all healthier people. We con- 1 ime too much meat at our meals, Deglecting '1 le fruits which a beneficent Providence has 1 lessed us with. Were we to breakfast on ! lilk or coffee, with figs and nutmeg or chris- : 1 na melons, dine on such meats as taste or urse will permit, with vegetables to match, nd a desert of watermelons, grapes, apples, j ears, peaches, &c., and sup on a cup of arolutic tea, with strawberries and cream, we !, light dispense with the pastry cook and the octor, provided we could eat no fruit between leals. It is not a little astonishing that with re immense amount of fruit produced at the . outh, it does not diminish the consumption f meat and bread. There is no doubt but rat the summers of the South would be the ealthicst portion of the year, were we only to se fruit as a necessary article of food. When 'e say fruit, we do not mean the trash that tands for weeks on the huckster stalls of the ' ties, but that which is picked fresh, every | rorning, from our own vines and trees. Most f our fruits abound in sugar, which is flour?hitig, cooling and healthy, whilst the meats dnsumed abound in oil, which is heating, tiuiulating and predisposing to fevers. Some f the healthiest people in the world live in he tropical regions, whose breakfasts consists . f oranges, pineapples, figsorbanauas, dinner f melons and raisins, supper of dried fruits : rith tea or coffee. They have learned to aapt their food to the climate and the wise proisions of Providence, and when we do the ime, wc shall be a healthier people. Soil of the South. I COLLECT LEAVES FOR- LITTER. After the harvest is over, and before the i he snows cover the ground, a day or two pent by the farmer and his hands in collect- j g the fallen leaves of the forest will be proluctive of a good store of litter, and expenes amply repaid. A good collection of such naterials is not always made in the fall by hose who could do it easily. Indeed, this >rudent foresight for litter with which to bed Iowa cattle, horses, and other stock, during | he wiuter, is not sufficiently practised among | is. It not only ensures a great amount of1 lomfort to your cattle, by giving an easy and varrn bed, but it saves, indirectly, much fod- j ler, in consequence of the warmth thus ob-; ained,?cattle eating much less when they are :ept warm aud cleanly. The leaf harvest, then, is one of importance o 'he farmer, if he will avail himself of it.? calm day or two spent in this business, with lis boys and oxen, hand rack, willenably him o get together a large pile of these fallen eaves, and if stowed in a dry place he will xperience the good effects, of them in the mproved condition of his stock, compared vith those which are suffered to lie down, and >erhaps be frozen down, in their own filth.? Hbe fertilizing material of leaves also adds es ? & MM j scntially to the enriching qualities of the maj nure hc;?p. Gardeners prise highly a compost ] made iu part of decomposed loaves. As the leaf harvest is the last harvest of the : year let it bo attended to when its time comes. Mtitiic Farnwr. WEARING OF FLANNELS. I There is a very important matter connected j with dress, which I cannot pass over in silence : j I meau tlic wcariny of Jimnn-.t iir.rt to the sl-in. , In the minds of many persons there is a considerable prejudice agaiust wearing it, though of late years there is a sounder public opinion than formerly. I will now state very briefly the advantages of flannel and give some striking examples in confirmation. In the first place, it is a bad conductor of caloric, aud tends therefore, to prevent the escape of ani; mal heat. Secondly, it aids largely in protcc; ting the body against the influences of sudden j changes in the weather. By preventing the rapid escape of animal heat, and by the gentle fiiction of the skin and the slight irritation of the general surface, its tendency is to keep up an equal temperature. The gentle friction aids in maintaining the circulation in the cutaneous vessels, aud at the same time imparts a healthful stimulus to the nerves.? That it contributes no little to these ends may be readily perceived by observing the change of temperature and other elFeets produced on i parts subjected to friction by the hand or in any other way. T know that the irritation pro-; duced by flannclls is so great in some persons ; that they cannot wear it next to the skin.? j When it is worn loosely as it should always he ' done, this friction must take place to a consid-! erable extent in every movement of the body. 1 f have to add, as another advantage, that there ks no other material which absorbs so well the exhalations from the skin. This fael very naturally suggests a frequent change or its thorough ventilation at night; the former however, is to be preferred.?K.rtnt' f from Ln Bonlra tiifro'/to tioi, h> PJii/siofoi/i/. CURING BACON WITHOUT SMOKE. "Oh tiic trouble folks have taken To smoke and spoil their hacon." To smoke the best bncon. fat your boss ear-! ly and fat them well. By fattening early you make a great saving in food, ami well fattened pork. Then kill as early as the weather will ; allow, and salt as soon as the animal heat is J gone, with a plenty of the purest salt, and J about half an ounce of saltpetre to one hun-1 dred pounds of pork. i As soon as the meat is salted to your taste, which will generally be in about five weeks, take it out. and if any of it has been covered with ,! brine, let it drain a little. Then take black pepper, finely ground, and dust on the hock end as much as will stick, then hang it up in a good, clean, dry. airy place. If all this is done , is itshould be, (it ought to be done now.") you will have no further trouble with it, for by fly , :iwe in spring, your bacon is so well cured i >n the outside, that flies or bugs will not dis:urb it. Curing bacon is like the Irishman's mode of nuking punch. He said :?'-put in the sugar . hen fill it up with whiskey, aud every drop of vater you put in after that spoils the punch." lust so with curing bacon, after following tin lircctions given above, every "drop" of stuoke . *ou put about it. spoils the bacon. if. /Oof/'tlt. Tkstin?> ?There is no difficulty vhatever in testing eggs. Take them into a oom moderately dark, aud hold them between , he eye and a candle or lamp. If the egg i.:,,nd?that is, if the albumen is still unafl'ect.,1?the light will shine through with a reddish rlow ; while, if the egg is affected, it will be ipaque or dark. A very few trials will show mv one the ease and simplicity of this method, in Fulton and Washington markets a man may ?e seen testing eggs at almost any time in the rear. He has a tallow candle placed under a rounter or desk, and taking up the eggs, three n each hand, passess them rapidly before the ? ran lie and deposits them in another box. His ' practiced eye quickly perceives the least want jf clearness in the eggs, and suspicious one ire re-examined, and thrown away or passed to i "doubtful" box. The process is so rapid. . hat we have seen eggs inspected perfectly at ' :he rate of one to two hundred a minute, or. is fast as they could be shifted from one box to another?six at a time. American At/riculturaHst. ' ^ An* 0u> Editor's Experience.?My1 Ions experience as publisher and editor has convinced me that it is a position of great responsibility; that it is impossible to please ov- , crybody; that it is best to eonduct it in such a way as to have a conscience void of offence to- [ | wards Clod and man ; that industry, economy, 1 perseverance and self-reliance arc the surest helpers; that, like woman's work, it is never done, every hour has its appropriate work; and that it requires a strong body in order to live long in such treadmill work. Editors should be kind and courteous to each uther, avoiding . personalities and abuse, treat each other as brethren, and allow others the same right.' which they claim for themselves. Every publication influences thousands of minds, and that influence should be salutary for time and eternity. The improvements in printing within seven- j ty years have been great. The screw press I and the sheepskin balls are superseded by the power press and the roller; but type setting is 1 still done by human hands, and editorials i must still be conceived by human heads.? May those hands and heads, now usefully and , houorably employed, be amply remunerated by a consciousness of doing good, and a well-fill- j ed purse, before old age incapacitates them for j eujovment, and the public torget tueir uwear-1 ied services; aud then may the "rest" above ; be the reward of all your toil! Nathaniel Willis. A Source of Smiles.1?Dr. Franklin have-; ing noticed that a certain mechanic who work- i ed near his office was always happy and smil-; ing, ventured at length to ask him for the se- ; crct of his constant cheerfulness. <No secret, Doctor," he replied. <1 have ; got one of the best wives, and when I go to 1 work, she always has a kind word of cncour-! agement for me; and when I go home, she meets me with a smile and a kiss, and the tea is sure to be ready ; and she has done so many things through the day to please me, that 1 cannot find' it in my heart to speak an unkind word to anybody." The Flying-Sqirrel and the Gray- ! sqirrel.?"You think you cau fly like a bird," j said the gray-squirrel to his neighbor, the flying-squirrel ; "come, let us try which can ! travel the faster." Forthwith they commenced the contest. It was in the midst of a tall ! forest. The one unfolded his parachute, and actually appeared to fly?but always doicn- j wards. The other leapt lightly from branch to branch, ever advancing upwards. The one, every time he alighted, was obliged to creep about in search of ^artiiig-point; tlie other, made every #igh a new spring- ? hoard, and danced ouward. . aJ At the end of te? the gray-squirrel [{.0^ barked in triumph $ top of a tail tulip- j 0'm: tree ; and, arching, cried out to the fly- ; pnci ing-s.juirrel, who viug on the ground, ; ^ a long way behiin ha, friend Leather- I j,e3 wing, I think cvenlst confess that four 1 and unpretending legs*, are of more value than a hundred as pinions that are plo false." and rin< ; ^g*?^ for E Wo j YORKYIIMQUIRER d?
