The drover's oft-repeated shout,

Those sounds of pleasant industry
I love?I love them all.

DRAINS.
That which carries off, makes empty, or exhausts,
is called a drain. 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

THE PRINTER AND THE DUTCHMAN.
A journeyman printer lately set out on
foot for the interior of Ohio, a distance of
five huudred miles, with a brass rule and
three dollars in cash in his pocket He found
himself in Pennsylvania, and being weary,
called at the inn of a Dutchman, whom he
found quietly smoking his pipe, when the following
dialogue ensued:
"Veil, Misther Valking Sthick, vat you

"Refreshments and repose."
"Supper and lodgings I reckon."
"Yes sir, supper and lodgings."
"Pe you a Y ankee peddler, mit jewelry in

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.

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

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

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."

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.

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.
CHESTER CORRESPONDENCE.
To meet the demands of our increasing circulation
in Chester county, we have engaged the ser
vices of Brainerd mcjjURE, ?;8q., wno win contribute
a letter of correspondence from Chester

entirely to Chester affairs?to the interests"bf"the
town and corinty?ahd written in the; racy and
graphic style peculiar to Mr. McLure, they cannot
fail to be of interest to our readers in Chester,
as well as elsewhere in the State.'
THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS.
In addition to the above features, Rev. Mr. Lathan
will continue his regular contributions to
the "Sabbath Reading," and the "Children's Department,"
which, under his management for tlfe
past six years, have been an important attraction;
and with the usual melange of Miscellaneous
Reading adapted to all tastes; the Agricultural
Department, containing practical and useful information
for the farmerand house-wife; a column
of Humorous Reading every week ; "Scraps and
Facts,"embracing light ourrent topics; a compend
