Farmers usually limit the meaning of the word so as to make it signify only ditches which carry off water from lagooDs, swamps, marshes, or wet low lands. For the purpose of carrying off water from such places as are mentioned, a ditch, if properly cut, that is, cut at the right place and cut deep enough and kept in prop ? J-4'- ? ? - A-.?- ?

Tabitha Sargent?"Aunt Tabitha," we all called her?was a spinster of an uncertain age, residing in the upper part of Oxford county, Maine. She might have been fifty? she might have been more?she might have been less?no one save herself could tell, and she wouldn't. She had been repeatedly asked how old she was, and had as often informed the inquirer that it was nobody's business but her own. Once upon a time Aunt Tabitha was summoned as a witness in a case on trial at the fall term of the Supreme Court held at Paris?and an important witness she was. She was. to testify for the plaintiff. Charles B. Curomings was counsel for the defence (I think it was Charles); and said Charles? "Now I'll make Aunt Tabitha tell us her age. Wait, and see." We waited. _ Tabitha bad given her testimony, direct, terse and strong, and was turned over for cross-examination. "What is your name?" asked Cummings, with severe dignity. "I told it to Mr. Hastings," answered the witness, with a snap. "TV* ho anro?huf T wish tn bnnw that T have.it right" "My name is Tabitha Sargent!" "Miss Sargent, you will not forget yon are under oath. Where do you now reside ?" "In Andover." "How old are you ?" "Eh??What, sir?" "What is your age?" "I?don't?know?sir!" "Don't know your own age ?" "No, sir," Tabitha replied, firmly, but with a sharp twinkle of her keen grey eyes. "I have not the least recollection of the circumstance of my birth, and consequently could not swear to its date. I may have heard other people speak of it, but I don't s'pose I'm here to tell what other folks say about things that haven't got nothing whatsoraever to do with this case. So Mr. Charles Curamings, if it would be any satisfaction to you, I tell you, once more?I don't know!" While Judge Kent ducked his head for a few moments, Tabitha gathered herself for the next onslaught. But there was no need. She had vanquished Charles B. as he had never been vanauished before.?New York Ledger. Spring Love-Making.?O, the soft sweet language of love! It's oft in the stilly night we hear its gentle murmur. "Dost think spring hath come, Henri ?" "Yes, dearest Consatina, I feel that I may assure you that this warmthness will be no more dispelled by the cold winds. But why so strange a question ?" "Because I fain would cloths my nether extremities in silken covering, were I assured of the continuance of the present balminess. To thee, who are so good and wise,your Consatina looks for counsel in all things affecting her health and happiness." "Believe me, then, they are dear to me, sweet one, and I am proud that thou shouldst deem me worthy to advise thee in a matter of so grave import. I am confident thou hast naught to fear in making the change thou desirest. To prove the strength of my conviction, I have to inform you that only yesterday night I laid aside my flannel." "Oh! Henri," she gasped, clinging convulsively to him ; "was it not premature ? Horrified fears assail me! What if thou shouldst take cold and die! Uh r me, protector I me? ah?" Calm thyself, me angel. There is no danger. All will be well." "I shall hope for the best, Henri, and pray nightly that no rude blast shall return to chill thy frame and place in jeopardy thy preciouslife. What would silk stockings be to Consatina if thou wertgone??a hollow mockery, a stuffless fabric!" Then they clinched, and we left. ? ? S&" A negro once said in a prayer meeting: "Bredren when I was a boy I took a hatchet and went into the woods. When I found a tree dat was straight, big and solid, I didn't touch dat tree; but when I found one leaning a little and hollow inside, I soon had him down. So when do debil goes after Christians, he don't touch dem dat stand straight and true, but dem dat lean a little, and are hollow inside." Wanted it Over With.?A Scotchman had promised to whip his son for some misdemeanor ; but, as he had company in the house, resolved to wait till they had gone, and so I shut his boy up in a closet till the appointed hour. Before the time was up, the youngster | became tired, and, to the surprise of the guests, and the wrath of bis parent, opened ; the closet-door a little, saying: "I say, winna ye gi'e me my licks noo? I dinna like to 1 wait." ? S&* An eastern paper having had considerable to say about "raising chickens by hand," the Galveston News responds: "Such information is not needed at the South. The whole colored population know how to do it, and an enterprising freedman can raise more pullets in a single night, on his way home from prayer meeting, than that eastern editor j -~----^coul^ nil his science." I er couuiuuu nnorwtiru, 10 a uivoc thing ; but there are some other things that, of draining, are far superior to ditches. To drain a plantation of all its resources, we would recommend the owner Jo try buying all his supplies for, say, five years. In that length of time it is more than probable that he will have his plantation in a fair way to be well drained. The hillsides will be drained of their substance, and the bottoms will be made tolerably dry by the washing down of the hills upon them. His stock, if by that time he should chance to have any, will be drained of their superfluous flesh, and the cows will, moat likely, all have tEe hollow horn and hollow tail. The old Corbet sow will begin, by this time, to give birth to razor backed pigs. Shobldj any farmer be unable to drain his plantation by the above process, if he will add to the above, borrowing mo.ney at, say about ten per cent, per an num, he will most likely succeed. Should he, however, be anxious to succeed in corapletingjthe work of. draining bis farm, if he will give a lien on his crops for only a few years, he can not fail. Leins and mortgages are far better things .to drain.good plantations than ditches. It is no uncommon thing for a ditch, no matter how much judgment has been exercised in locating and cutting it, to fail in draining even a small swamp ; but a lien or mortgage, no matter how carelessly it has been given, seldom fails to drain the whole plantation with all its appurtenances. More,.ccrtificates could be secured to establish this position than can be found attached to any patent medicine in the land. If any one ? ?% %% tknt Uft manic irt ^roin Kimcolf LIOO a laiui tliab uo nouw vw u? utu Miww*? and family away from, and doubts whether a lien or mortgage will do it or not, let him ask those who have tried it. It is all nonsense to say that a farm can not be divined. Any body can drain ahy farm, and then not half try. It is strange that sensible men should make so much ado about draining their plantations, when they see so many men, who make no pretensions to wisdom, succeeding without difficulty. Any man can so completely drain his farm that you can see daylight through the corn-cfib, smoke-house and barn, from January to January. :?* * * ?? Balky Horses.?The brain of a horse seems to entertain but one thought at a time; for this reason continued whipping is out of the question. But if you" can, by any'means, change the direction of his mind, give him a new subject to think of, nine times out of ten you will have no further trouble in starting him. As simple a trick as a little pepper, aloes, or the like, thrown back on the tongue, will often succeed in turning attention to the taste in his mouth. The tying of a pair of cattle with a log chain around the horse's neck, is an intricate and expensive remedy, and a good many people may not be lucky enough to have a yoke of oattle handy for the occasion. A simpler and cheaper remedy that will result far differently, is to take a couple of turns of wrapping twine, such as grocers ude, ayound the foreleg just below the knee, tight enough for the horse to feel, and tie in a bow knot. At the first cluck he will go dancing off, and after going a short distance you can get out and remove the string to prevent injury to the tendon in your further driving. The fitqt lesson in this simply process was in Lexington, Kentucky; subsequent experience has proved its utility when applied to balky horses. The philosophy of the appliance is something on the same principle as that whereof we once read for preventing hens from scratching up the garden. Put gads or spurs on the hens, reversing them?instead of the points up, have them pointing downward. Then, when the hen lifts her leg to soratch, as it descends, the point of the spur catches in the ground, placing that foot forward; and the stroke with the other leg is attended with like results, until the hen walks herself right out of the garden.? Turf, Field and Farm. Be Neat About the Farm.?Of all things in the world, be neat about the farm. If you have a thrifty wife, take pattern by her management in-doors. Swept and dusted are her rooms, and made attractive with many tasteful ornaments. Your farm may be made as pleasing as your house. The yard and wood-pile may be kept as sightly aB the shining cook-stove, where all the sticks 6nally go. The fences may be one of the prettiest parts of the landscape, if they are only kept painted or whitewashed. \ The stone walls do continually tumble, or get knocked down, we admit, but it don't take long to pick up two or three of the fallen rocks and put them in place, when you are passing by. The barn may be made the sweetest place around, if care is taken to keep the cattle's stalls cleanly, as they should be for every living creature. The smell of packed hay, and the breath of the cows, can never be equalled by the chemist. In the harness-room, there is i n i i ? rr _ I still more neea or oraer ana nearness. Harness kept nice and handsome, wear three times as long, when the dust is brushed off, and they are well oiled from time to time. To give an impression of your thriftiness to; others is well, but it is not the important point. To know your belongings are in good condition, and that your farm is a model for others, is to make your heart light and contented, besides giving you a sense of independence and dignity, well worth the toil of gainiug it. t Good Rules.?Five per cent.,and perhaps ! ten, can be added to the amount of .milk ob- j tained from the cows of this country, if the following rules are inexorably followed : 1. Never hurry cows in driving to and from the pasture. ? 2. Milk as .near at equal intervals as possible. Half-past 6ve in the morning and six. in the evening, are good hours. 5 Ua aono/iiollir tanrler of t.bp. rnwR al millr. U? X/V Vg^VV?M<?J WMMV* v? WW ftm-wv i ing time. ' 4. When seated, draw the milk as rapidly as possible, being certain to always get it all. 5. Never talk or think of anything beside what you are doing while milking. 6. Offer some caress, and always a soothing word, when you approach a cow and whefa you leave her. The better she loves you, the more free and complete will be her abandon as you sit at her side. i gUa4i#0 foHb* Sabbath. : f| CONDUCTED BY -j , . , . > RiEV. ROBERT LATHAN. i f Original.] POSSESSED OF DEYILS. It is the opinion of judioioua commentators that, at the.tirae which our Saviour appeared upon earth, Satan was permitted to exercise wonderful influence over the bodies as well as i fViA minds nf multitudes of tHe human fami ly. In the gospels we frequently find siich expression as these: "Possessed with a devil;" "possessed with devils j"' "possessed with unclean spirits." Since Jesus Christ csftae into the world to orush the head of the old serpent, which is the devil, we might expect that the devil would, at that time, be permitted to exercise extraordinary power, that the victory gained by Jesus Christ might be the more manifest. , It would be useless to undertake to explain how a demon could be said to be in the body of a human being, so thaVit could be said that the individual was possessed with a demon. There are multitudes of things that are absolutely true, and yet we cannot explain how they can be so. There are multitudes of persons in the present day who may be said to be possessed with devils. One of the characteristics of the demoite with which individuals were tormented in the time of our Saviour was, that ?hey brought the individuals of whom they, in some sense had taken possession, to ruin. They were unclean spirits. Such is the case to-day. T^L rv?xv ??/v J nn !r? fVi/x nmonnf rlotr whn x iiere ai c muitivuuco iu nuv ^awvuv v?mj h mvj with all propriety, may be said to be possessed with unclean spirits. In the fullest sense of the word, they, are unclean .ip thought, word and deed.-* No contemptibltfnumber Of the human family are possessed with unclean devils. The debauchee is, beyond all question, possessed with an unclean spirit. Multitudes of the human family seem to be under the control of a demon which incites them to do things which are unclean and filthy ifi the sight of both God and man. Another characteristic of the demons with which individuals were possessed at the time of our Saviour, was that the individuals were, in a variety of ways, torn. The devil still frtl tool" mon TIlO mflli whf> IS ftH dieted to drunkenness is torn by a devil". His mind and his body are torn to pieces! Ruin awaits him. His property is soon to be scattered to the winds, and he is destined soon to become a poor simpleton. The man vjfyb is tormented with delirium tremens may, with all propriety, be said t$> be possessed with a devil. For the time, an unclean spirit has full possession of him?a devil which nothing but the power of divine grace is able to drive out of him. ? ,. % Pressing Towards the Mark.?A man's character is sure to get the best of him. Like murder, "it will out'' Being a hypocrite is a bad business for many reasons, chiefest of which is that all disguises are sure to fail. The safe way is to be a good, pure minded, honest, concentrated man. ir you are not ot that, the first thing is to become one without delay. "At once or gradually ?" Both. Begin at once. Keep on continually. There is really no place for speculation about it. If you want to know how much can be done in a day, do not resort to a slate-pencil, but take off your coat and begin work. If you would know what saving faith and abounding grace can compass in a moment, betake you to prayer and consecration. You may not be able to reckon up the matter even then; nor need you. Press towards the mark of your high calling?keep pressing. Don't stop to dispute about the distance it may. be off, and never cease to press on. And do not forget the fruits you are to bear. Look to practice. Give out the light you get from heaven. The life within will get into the life without, but you can afford to neglect placing it upon the candlestick of consistent practice. That is to say, old habits need to be reformed on purpose. They may concern minor morals, but even then attention to them is is an imperative duty. They may concern grave duties; and then they are the devil's hose-pipe putting out the fires of divine g^race. The man who consecrates his life to Christ to day, must deliberately restore what he has wrongfully taken, or he will be back in the old rut to-morrow. There is no being good without trying aud keeping on trying-Hwithout pressing towards the mark. You can trust the new life inside just as far as you carefully live it outside, and no farther. Paul pressed toward the mark? and so must you or you will never reach it The Growth of a Besetting Sin.?Its growth is not always the same. Sometimes the development is gradual and insensible, ai avarice, for instance. A young man's character is fair ; only those who know him best, discern a germ of selfishness. He prospers in life and riches increase. The germ vegetates and grows until we see its consummation in the hard face, the cold eye, the rigid clutch of fingers that can never grasp enough. The growth is sometimes rapid, impetuous, gaining in a fejy days a fearful maturity, just as the seed, dormant for ages in the cerecloths of a mummy, bursts into life whefi air and moisture are supplied. -Young men, KpaH told me how thev went to a city to enter a counting-house or attend lectures. A single step over a wicked threshold was a spark upon tinder, and in the conflagration that followed, all self control was consumed. What, my reader, has been the growth of your besetting sin ? Can you trace its progress from a seemingly harmless serpent, with which you trifled, to a dragon that suffocates you in its folds ? Can you remember how you nursed and fondled it, and with your own hand nourished it into greatness ? How does the inveteracy of habit intensify your calamity ! Or can you remember how once it was pent up and restrained, until like the fisher A mnkiiin AiUIa In q f K/mi +1 aao men ill Hie mauiau lauic, iu a uiuugiiLiwxi moment, you violated some seal graven with a sacred name, and in a moment this "Genius" of the besetting sin issued forth in form and substance, and grasped you with a superhuman violence ? Alas! you must fight it now ; there is no spell that can restore it back to its prison.?Bishop Lay. To Drinking Christians.?Having suffered much in my own heart and conscience, from giving away to my appetite in the matter of drink, after professing and hoping to be regenerated, I feel a burning and unconquerable desire to say a word of warning to new believers?yea, and to old ones also, whb may be so unfortunate as to indulge their appetite in the use of alcoholic drinks. My dear brethren, I feel almost a slanderer, when I charge that there are some in the fold of Christ who do often, even regularly, partake of intoxicating drinks, but alas! it is true ; "Pity tis, tis true." A great pity, and much to be pitied, those who so indulge. It is unnecessary for me to point the finger of warning at Noah, Nabal, Elah, Benhadad and others of old, or to remind you of the thousands of instances occurring in modern times, of ruin wrought by the demon drink. My purpose is to warn you against the beginning of the vile habit,"and to arouse your reflection and memory. Remember the numerous instances of sin and ruin, attending indulgence, wrought within the limits of your own personal observation, however young you are, or contracted your sphere is; and, then, reflect. You will, as certain as the Holy Spirit once operated on your heart, descend to the same depi.hs and become as eternally lost as, the meanest sinner in hell, unless you at once cast your burden upon your Saviour, and by God's grace forsake the vile habit. I know not whom I address, but my earnest prayer to God is, to "have mercy upon every drinking member of every church." YORSVILLE ENQUIRER. VOLUME 32.?1870. THE YORKVILLE ENQUIRER Is now in its twenty-second, volume, and is a .large twentyeight column newspaper, handsomely-printed on clear, legible type, and devoted to the Political, Social, A gricultural and CommercialInterests of the South, tye are enabled to, promise increased attractions in all the different departments of the paper, conspicuous among them being the SERIAL STORIES, written expressly for its oolnmns. As a non-partisan, independent family newspaper, the future editorial conduct of the Enquirer can be as well judged by the past as by any promise which we might now feel disposed to make. An experience of thirty-five years in the newspaper business?of which time at least one-Half has been unremittingly devoted to the management Ol iiiw IjPI^uikisk?luny cuuviiiura 1110 piu|inoMii that the plan he adopted on assuming control of the paper, is the correct mode of journalism in the present day. The true mission of the newspaper is to place before the public facts as they may exist, unbiased by partisan feelings or sinister motives; and the propriety of this course is fully attested, not only by the success of the -EnquirhRJ which can truthfully claim the largest circulation of any country newspaper in the South, but also by many other of the most popular and widely circulated papers of the day. The course thus indicated we shall continue to pursue, aiming to publish a LITERARY AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER, which shall be a welcome visitor to the Home Circle, and acceptable alike to all classes of readers. Hence, the news department of the Enqotrer, whether of matters at home or abroad?political or otherwise?will be conducted with the utmost care, and only facts as they seem to exist, will be presented, free from sectional or party bias. LITERARY DEPARTMENT. The original Serial Stories are an attractive feAtnre of the paper, being from the pens of the most sprightly and entertaining story writers of the day, and abound with dramatic plot and stirring incident.; < i , v ' HISTORICAL SKETCHES. The Historical Sketches of the Early History of South Carolina will constitute an Important feature of the volume. These Sketches are written by Rev. Robert Lathan, and commencing with the earliest settlement of the State in colonial times, gradually trace its rise and progress. T^o" the writing' and compilation of these Sketches the author has devoted much thought and extensive research. Besides the colonial history, they will contain the stirring scenes and important events, the anecdotes and incidents?legendary and authentic?which have never before been fully published, connected with the Revolutionary history of the State. Much of the material of these Sketches being traditional?many of the events portrayed having never been in print? and written in Mr. Lathan's easy, familiarstyle, they will be read with peculiar satisfaction^ not only In our own Slate, but by every one having a just appreciation of the history of a noble ancestry in their struggle for liberty and independence.
