Did you ever consider bow much of a bushel of wheat sown on an acre of land, produces fruit ? It must be a low estimate to give two BtalkB to every grain that brings fruit~many two or three timos that number. It is a sorry crop of wheat, that doe3 not give thirty grains to the bead, so that is a poor crop you have sixty fold for every grain that comes to anything, and consequently sixty bushels ibr- every bushel. Now when you make ten bushels par acre, you are getting on? ly one sixth of what you ought to get?a S)or yield, if every grain produces fruit, he conclusion is irresistible that where you sow a bushel to the acre, and reap ten, not more than one-sixth of the seed sown produces fruit, and often not one tenth. This conclusion would seem to indicate that we waste a vast amount of wheat in seeding our crops. Of this, there can hie no-doubt. But it may be said, if we scw\ less-than,a bushel per acre, we shall have not.enough to germinate and pro? duce a fair stand. .This may be true-, but the necessity of such waste grows out of the careless manner of seeding, both in the preparation of the land, and plowing in the see<L Dr. James Xmmpkin, I am told,,Bowed about two bushels on an acre well broken, deeply plowed land, and covered it with a two-horse Brinly plow, and his acre is among the moot beautiful of our neighborhood. Now it is manifest that not more than a peck of the two bushels sown by the Doctor,, evereamo up; for doubtless three fourths of it was covered-beyond the reach of fihe warmth necessary to sprout it, and half that did sprout, perished?enough seed happening to be covered, at the proper depth to give a good crop: The quantity of seed sown, where wheat is two dollars and a half a bushel, is matter for consideration. Ii am looking to the result of Dr. Ham? ilton's expenment with great interest. I believe it will succeed. I mean the plan? ting in drills, eighteen inches apart. The advantages are: 1st. The small quantity of seed needed; 2d. The concentrating the manure; and lastly, and more impor? tant, the cultivating of the land during the growth of the crop. The experience of the past few days confirms me in a theory I have long entertained, of the rust on the stem of wheat, and -that is, that it is the effect of the hot weather on the wheat at a particular stage of its growth, and that stage is on and after the formation of milk in the grain. Perhaps the injury is attributable to the great change of temperature; for I suppose it to be true that vegetable life is as sensi? tive to violent changes of atmospheric temperature, as is animal life. It is not the frost only which destroys fruit, but -the sun which shines on it before the frost melts. We have had an unusually cool May till the last of it, when the wheathor becario suddenly very hot?not marely comparatively, but absolutely. The ef *&ct was the appearance of rust on tho stem, of wheat,, ten or twelve days earlier than usual. We have heretofore consid? ered wheat safe from injury by rust, if it -were harvested by the 10th of June. The purport of all this is, to show that we can find no preventive of rust. I hold it to be produced by atmospheric causes purely, whether it be animal or vegetable product. Our only remedy is to procure earlier varieties or to sow earlier : and then we are m danger of fly and spring frost, sethat in avoiding the rock Scylla, we rush into the whirlpool Charybdis. But "many shall run to and fro, and -knowledge shall be increased." 1 sincerely congratulate you on the rapidly growing popularity of the Culti? vator. 1 rejoice to see the great interest felt by almost all classes of our people in the success of agriculture, and particular? ly the increasing modesty of some of our %nners.invrelationito-3bok-farm$rs, as the men of) understanding have been sneer ragly called. I think the time is not distant, when men .will be ashamed to "look for a rain certain, at the next change;" or to regard these changes.o? the moon in sowing or planting seeds, or cutting children's hair, or spaying pigs,, or killing hogs, or to believe that "wheat turns to cheat,'' or a thousand; other "I've heerd> 'em say," equally non-sensical. I have no doubt our cbifttoen will be amazed and amused, to learn that their fathers ever entertained, such silly nations. -?, ? While Tom Corwin* was a member of .he General Assembly of the Stato of Ohio, he brought in a bill for the abolition of public punishment at the whipping? post. He made a speech thereon, to which an elderly member replied some? what as folioW8 :?"Mr. Speaker, the gen? tleman is not so old as I am, and has never seen so much of tho practical oper? ation) of the system of punishment which he desires to abolish. When I lived in Connecticut, if a fellow stole a horse, or cut up any ether rustics, we used to tie him right up, and give him a real good thrashing, and he always cleared right out, and we never saw anything raoro of Kim. It's tho best way of getting rid of rogues that over was tried, and without expense to the State." Corwin roso in reply:??Mr. Speaker, I havo boon often j>U2fc!?d to account for the vast emigra? tion from Connecticut to the West, but the gentleman last up, has explained it to my entire satisfaction." The bill pass? ed without further discussion. ? The question, "which wants most, man or woman V was recently discussed in one of our lyceum associations. Noth? ing definite was settled, except that some of the debaters wanted brains. A not uuirequent infirmity-of both sexes. Singular Will. Yesterday we heard of and read part of the most singular will on record. Tho maker of the will is represented to be a sbre-.vd, successful business man, who has accumulated quite a large fortune. He exhibits no other signs of insanity than may bo derived from the extreme eccen? tricity of his will, although it is probable courts will,, in duo course, be called upon to determine tho question whether the testator was of sound disposing mind;. The will disinherits all the natural heiTS of the maker of it, and devises the entire property in trust for the establishment of an Infirmary for Cats. A mostolaborate arcb?tecfcual plan for the necessary build? ing ii> attached to and made part of the will. It provides areas for that sweet amatory converse so dear to tho feline heart, and rat holes of the most ravishing nature, to be kept well stocked. Tho most ingenious contrivances are provided fur securing to the rat a chance for escape,, so that the cat may not lose the pleasure of the chase by finding their prey come too easily. High walls are to be built, with gently sloopiog roofs, for the moon? light promenade and other nocturali amusements of the cats. The trustees are directed to select the grounds for this Infirmary fn the most populous part of some American city, and the devisees are to be protected by a competent force of nurses from the ravages of men and dogs. No peroon of the male sex is ever to be admitted within the walls, and no female who has children or is under thirty years old. There are hundreds of minute di? rections which we have no time to note. One would suppose that in the foregoing provisions the testator had exhausted all eccentricities of one man, however unique his nature; but the last provision of the will aeems move outrageously bizarre than any finat go before. Says the devisor: "I have all my life been taught to believe that everything in and.about man was inten? ded to be useful; and that it was man's duty, as lord of animals, to protect all the lesser species, even as God protects and watcbes over him. For these - two combined reasons?first, that my body even after death n:ay continue to be made useful; and secondly, that it may bo made instrumental u? fur as possible in furnish? ing a substitute for tho protection of the bodies of my dear friends, the cats?1 do hereby deviso and bequoath the intestines of my body to be made up into fiddle strings, the proceeds to be devoted to the purchase of an accordion, which shall be played in the auditorium of the Cat In? firmary by one of the regular nurses to be selected for that purpose exclusively? the playing to be kept np forever and ever without cessation day and night, in order that the cats may have the privilege of always hearing and enjoying that in? strument which is the nearest approach to their natural voice." If any journal can give us information of a more singular will than this; we should liko to hear it.?Ohio State Jour? nal. Clever Women There is-an unaccountable antipathy to clever women. Almost ail men profess to be afraid of blue stockings?that is, of women who have cultivated their minds; and hold up as a maxim, that there is no safety in matrimony, or even in the ordi? nary intercourse of society, except with females of plain understandings. The general idea seems to be that a dull ordi? nary woman, or even a fool, is more easi? ly managed than a woman of spirit and 8ent;o, and that the acquirements of the husband ought never to be obviously in? ferior to those of the wife. If these propositions were true, there woulu be some show of reason for avoiding clever women. But I am afraid they rest on no good grounds. Hardly any kind of fool can be so easily managed as a person of even first rate intellect; while the most of the species are ranch moro untractable. A dull fool is sure to be obstinate; obsti? nate in error as well as in propriety; so that the hueband is every day provoked to find that sho will fully withhold him from acting rightly in the most trifling; and perhaps also tho most important things. Then the volatile fool is full of whim and caprice, and utterly defies ev? ery attempt that may be made by ber husband to guide her aright. In one case his life embittered for days, perhaps, by the sulkiness of his partner; in the other, ho is chagrined by tho fatal consequences of her levity. Are these results so much to be desired, that a roan should marry beneath the rank of his own understand? ing, ra order to secure them ? I rather ap? prehend that cowardice in this case, as in most others, is only the readiest way to danger. As for the rest of the argument, I would be far from saying that to marry a woman much superior to ono'e self in intellect, is a direct way to happiness. I must insist, however, that there is more safety for a man of well regulated feel? ings, in the partnership of a superior than of an inferior woman. In tho for? mer case, I verily believe, his own under? standing is likely to bo more highly esti? mated than in the other. In the first place, he is allowed the credit of having had tho sense at least to chooso .a good wifo. In tho second, ho has counsel and example always- at hand, for tho improve? ment of his appearances before society. The very superiority, however, of his wifo insures that sho will be above show? ing off to the disadvantage of hor hus? band"; she will rathor seek to conceal bis faults, and supply hi3 deficiencies, for her own credit. Now, what sense a fool has, she must always show it, even though sure to excite- ridicule from its being so little. A Lcdqe in Ancient Form.?Masons, who know of tho fact, and the reason why, lodges were in ancient times con? vened upon hills or low valleys, will bo glad to know that an informal lodgo was opened by mombers of Springfield En? campment, in a lodge room provided by Bon. Perley Poorc, during their visit to hira, upon the highest hill of bi8 farm, which is situated near New bury port, Mas.-'. This lodgo room m form od by trees set out in such a-manner as to make an oblong room of due and ancient form. ? A shrewd old gentleman once said to his daughter: "Bo sure, my dear, you never marry a poor man ; but remember that the poorest man in the world is one Chat has moucy and nothing else." TUX YOTJNG WIDOW. She is cunning?sometimes witty, Free and easy, but not bold ; Like an apple, ripe and mellow, Not too young, and not too old ; Half-inviting, half-repollant, Now advancing, and now shy ; There is mischief in her laughter, There is danger in her eye; She has studied human nature, She is schooled in every art;: She has taken her diploma A3-the mistress of the-heart! She can tell the very moment When to sigh and when to smile ; Oh, a maid- is sometimes charming, But a widow all the while ! Are you sad ? Oh, then, how stirious Will her pretty face become! You are angry, she is wretched, Sadden'd, friendless, tearful, dumb. Are you mirthful ? now her laughter, Silver sounding, will ring out! She can lure and catch and play you, As an angler does a trout. Ah, "old fossils." nearly fifty, Who are plotting, deep and wise ; Ye ''Adonises" of twenty, With the love-light in your eyes? You may practice all the lcssonn Taught by Cupid since the la!.l, But I know a little widow Who can win and fool you all. -* What Does Freemasonry Teach.? Go ask that brother who has fallen in the path of life, whose plans have migicarried, and who finds himself bold down by the burdens of care and distress. He will tell you that it teaches him that his brothers will lift him up, remove the ob? structions from bis path and assist in bearing the burdens under which he has succumbed. It teaches him that there is something in it besido forms and ceremo? nies, that there is an invisible tro which links as all together in one great family of friends and brothers, and that the heart of each beats responsive to the wants and needs of his brother. Ask the Mason's widow what it teach? es. She will tell you that it teaches her of unobtrusive benevolence, of sympathy and kindness, brotherly affection and es? teem. It teaches her life is not all sor? rowful, that the clouds that lower about her will soon break away, dispelled by the light and Jovo of the Mason's pres? ence. Ask the orphan what it teaches, and ho will tell you that it teacheu him that brotherly affection and regard which knit the father's heart into the fratoniity, has descended to the son a priceless legaey, which will bo to him better than silver or gold ; for it will teach his feet in what Ipaths to roam, will open to him the .ave? nues which lead him to knowledge and usefulness, aud lead him to learn that character which is alike the test of ad? mission to the Lodge, and which is more to be prized than wealth or honors* A6k the wanderer in a strange land what it teaches, and he will tell you that it teaches the universality of that lan? guage which is intelligible in al) climes, and which, when used, never failsof elic? iting a response. It teaches him of brothors there ready to assist and servo him, of difficulties removed, of courteous treatment, and of. the usefulness of that institution which has grown and spread where civilized man has gone. Ask the brother who, perchance, in [ Boera unguarded-moment, has erred and fallen, what it teaches-. Jtl'e wHl tell you that it teaches of that chasity which I deals gentij7 with the erring,, that keeps the silent tongue, that unbraideth not, that takes him gently by the hand, and leads him back to rectitude, and helps him once more to stand- euect like a man and a brother. It points- out the follies of his ways, and urges him to avoid them in the future. Ask the wealthy brother what it teaches, and he will toll you that it teaches him to remember the poor and fatherless, the widow and tho orphan, to bo benevolent with his riches, and by his example teach the world that Masonry has made him worthier and better. Brother, what does it teach you and me? It teaches us to bo temperate, to deal justly, be charitable to all men, and .so walk as-d act that the world may never, through us, have an opportunity of cast? ing reproach on our anctont institution. -+ ? A traveler in Pennsylvania asked his landlord if he had any cases ef sun-stroke in that town.

De ono am a broad arid narrow road that leads to per? dition, and de udder am a narrow and broad road that leads to sure destruction." "If dat am de case," said a sable hearer, "dis colored individual takes to de woods.'' ? A celebrated lawyer once said that tho thrco most troublesome clionte he over had were a young lady who wanted to bo married, a married woman who wanted a divr-ree, and an old lady who didn't know what she wanted. ?

"Mr. President," said an orator, "suppose I was courtin' a gal. and . she run away, and I was to run .after her; wouldn't I bo happier when I coteh't her than I was running after her?'' ? A story is told of a soldiier in tho army whoso only fault was that of drunk? enness. His colonel remonstrated him : "Tom, you aro a bold fellow and a good soldier, but you get drunk." "Colonol," replied Tom, "how can you oxpect all'the virtues of human charaoter combined fee sixteen dollars a mouth." ? To bo a woman of fashion is one of tho easiest things in the world.
