[We publish the following by ppechd

The following verses was com posed by
one John Adkins while in prison condem

Drunkards, poor drunkards,
Take warning; by iric,
The fruits of transgression,

My soul is tormented,

My friends and dear children
Left weeping behind.
Much intox ation
My sins has been
And inv dearest coinpnnionH
I've barbarously slain.
In yohders cold grave yard
{Ier body doth lie,
For which I ain condemned
And sillely must die.
A whole life of sorrow
Caii never atone
Kor dial cruel murder
Which my hand have done.
1 ahtgiiiltv condemned
And right it should be,
Therefore all-poor drunkards
Take warning by inc.
A solemn death warning
To drunkards I leave.
When tins my poor body
Is laid in the grave

And vengenoe comes on.
Farewell my dear children
Where ever you he,
You air Miiiic young and tender,

I hope my kind neighbors,
Your guardian will show,
And heaven, kind heaven
Will save you from woe.
No mot her to teach you,
No father to guide,

From sins awful tide.
No foi l nne to shield you

Tim HiciiKu Aim in Fakmixo;?
The higher aim of every intelligent
tiller of the soil should ho tho im
provement of the productiveness of
his land, until it reaches the point
where maximum crops ure produced
at the least expense. Wise husbandry
regards the farm si in pi}' as a machine
for turning out crops. The machine
is the matter of firat importance This
is always to be kept in good running
order, anil ils efficiency is to be in
creased by all economical methods
The man who farms upon this system,
will never sacrifice soil .or a great
crop. He aims in every working of
the soil to increase its depth and 10
add to it more elements of fertility
than be removes in the crops, and lo
make the crops not only pay for (he
improvement of themselves, bin to
pay for llic improvement of the acres
upon which they are grown. In car
rying out this aim so us to realize these
results, a man shows his skill as a
cultivator. It is a comparatively easy
thing, for any one who has money, to
impovc the soil so that it shall pro
due*) crops paying for the lubor of
growing them anil the. interest on
$'200 or ?.')()() an acre. Stahle manure,
enough, well ploughed in, will do this
But it is altogether another mailer to
make this improvement pay for itself.
Yet it is a possible thing lo do this,
i and there are farmers skillful enough
to accomplish this result, and this wc
bold lo be the true aim in the cultiva
tion of the soil. The most judicious
improvements arc those which finally
pay the largest profits, roquiriii?
several years to bring in their full re
turns. It is a matter of great impor
tance that our funning population
should not only be settled, and plan
all their operations upon tbo farm as
if th'jy expected to spend their days
upon it.?Hcrahl.
So jSTt:.\rt and Ykt So Fail?Not
many months ago, in India, a gentle
man and wife having taken passage
for England went on board with their
baggage. Presently the husband dis
covered that there was time for him
to go tuhnrc and see n man. lie went,
ami when it occurred to him that it
was time to go on board again, he
hnilo I ii boatman and ere long found
himself on board a large passenger
?hip. Jt was night. A sleepy steward
inquired the number of his cabin,
which be chanced to remember, as
also that his was the upper berth; so
be contrived to clamber into it with
out disturbing his w ife, as be suppos
ed, who slept beneath. ]Jut whet:
dawn broke, ami the ship was well on
her way, n feminine voice was heard
shrieking, in a tcne of tenor: "Stew
ard, steward! there's a mini in my
cabin !" i he wretched man was
aroused, and the Situation explained
to hi m. Ho had mistaken the ship.
They were under way lor Australia,
ami bis unhappy wile was steaming
away to England under a linn convic
tion 'bun be had been robbed and
murdered by ridliuns who frequent
the quays. When bo at length ar
rived in Australia, he could not even
there relieve her mind, as the cable
connecting that country with Europe
was not completed, so that about four
months passed before she heard any
thing of him.
A Soi.ICMN Kktueat.?Thel'assion
ist Fathers, who occupy* St. Michael's
monastery in llobokcn, N. ,!., opened
ii religious retreat for the benefit of
Uoinan Catholic men, who are desir
ous of wholly secluding th' inselves
from worldly nlthir.s for Ihe term ol
eight days. A 11 applicants for ad in is
sion into th 3 iuon:.slci y for the term
and purpose above referred to were
freely admitted; but the priests ex
pect :it least live dollars Irom each
'penitent to defray expenses. Many
give ten and fifteen dollars, ami in
some instilnecs much larger amounts
are contributed by wealthy penitents
at tlie elose of the retreat.
Each penitent has a separate apart
ment, containing a bed, a washing
stand, a bureau, n table, and pious
bo< ks and pictures. The board given
to the penitential guests is much more
sumptuous und select than that which
thepricsls allow themselves. Exercise
is afforded the temporary recluses on
the spaci ats corridors, or, weather
permit ling, in the line garden at the
rear of the monastery.
Many prominent ami wealthy
gentlemen of New York, Brooklyn
and Jersey, City have subjected them
selves to the religious ordeal I)Holly
ilesctiived in this report. The cere
monies and nature of the religious re
treat arc as solemn and interesting as
they are peculiar.
Mr. Huston's rise into political
import mice has been so rapid that
comparatively few tire acquainted
with his past, history. Very many
arc unaware wf the fact that, ?iorh
and brought up in a slave-holding
state, he was from the fust an un
swerving supporter of tin; union, a
brave soldier'in the union army, and
one of the earliest, of those who re
cognized the grand fact that slavery
was tli3 great disturbing element in
the country, and that, its destruction
wsis both n moral duty and a political
necessity; It was owing to him sind
a few men like him that Kentucky
did not secede in 18(51, ami that the
seat of war in the west was on the
southern instead til'the northern side
of llie Ohio. A district attorney in
Kentucky, he wits afterwards very
earnest in his dibi ts to protect the
colored people in their newly acquir
ed rights, and was always a strong
advocate of the adoption and enforce
ment of those amendments to the
constitution which have been enacted
for their protection. His cony'itcni
loyalty -under circumstances the
most trying, his firm anti-slavery
opinion and warm friendship lor the
colored race, his strong cflorts in be
half of an honest currency and politi
cal reform, and his opinions on the
subject of national reconciliation,
make him one of the strongest of the
gradually lessening number of accept
able candidates for 'he presidency.
A PnAcriCAL Uhk ok Docs.?It is
a fact perhaps not generally known
that there is a linn doing business in
?*an Francisco who purchase the thou
sands of do;-8 slaughtered by the po.uul
master ofthat city, or that may have
been otherwise killed, for which they
pay forty cents each. The carcasses
are conveyed to th ir manufactory at
South San Francisco, where the skins
aro removed and sohl lo the tanneries,
the bait taken off ami resold to
p! aster crs, the bide tanned, inside
into gloves - a d sold in the market;
The denuded carcass is then thrown
into a huge cahlron and boiled until
life bones are easily separated from
the flesh, when they are removed and
.-old to the sugar refineries, where
they are ground lost line pbsvdoi and
used*to ciarify sugar. The oil that
rises to tli e surface of the boiling mass
is skimmed off stud manufactured into
coil liver oil, ami the remainder is
used for the purpose of fattening lings;
Booth and roan.?The Charlotte
' user vier says: Something of Mr.
Booth's contract with Air. Ford,
obtained' from the latter, will inter
est our readers. Mr. Booth is paid
$000 per night. His contract is for
fifty nights; and for this period be
receives 830,000. When Mr. Ford
went tojiinjto make the contract, he
proposed, tcv-nvc him what he (Booth)
thought ho coukl make in New l tirkl
Mi*. Booth told him that be could
make $000 per night there; Mi-. Ford
offered him that much, and a bargain
was made. Every night's perform
ance costs the manager of this comp
any ?1,000. One of the terms of the
contract is, thai Mr. Booth is never to
travel at night, smd never to leave n
stopping place before. 1 1 o'clock in
the day, unless he chooses to do so.
Notwithstanding bis heavy expenses,
Mr. Ford calculates upon making
$.'>,00? to ?4 000 clear money during
his .Southern tour.
Tlii? Gold Yn:i.i>.?The mines in
the States am! Territories west of the
Missouri river, including British
Columbia and the west coast of Mcxi
eo, show si yield ol 880,880,037 durin
the present year, being an excess of
nearly 86,500,000 over that of last
year. Nevada, Colorado, Mexico,
Oregon, British Columbia, Monitum,
and Arizona increased. California,
Idsibo, Flab and Washington de
creased. '1 he decrease in California
was due to want of water. The in
crease in Colorado ami Nev.nl i was
verv notable. The latter yields more
t han one-half of the whole. Tbe pre
sent prospect of the yield next year
indicates that it will reach 800,000,
000, of which Nevada will contribute
850,000,000. AVclls, largo & Co.
carried over 823,500,000 of gold dust
bullion and over 811.000,000 of silver
bullion. The other S10,000,OPO was
in ores sind base bullion.
An interesting editorial article in
the London Times gives dctaiis re
specting the manner in which the
superior energy stud resources ol
America have, within the past ton
years, wrought si revolution in the
gram supph id' I'u rope, and the em
barrassmcnt and alarm which prevail
in Russia in consequence of the fact
that her corn producing regions have
been distanced in the great competi
tive race with the United States. The
'J%ics shows that, whereas nine years
ago forty-four per cent, of the grain
exported to England came from
Russia and only fourteen per cent,
from America, now forty-four per
cent, coincs from America and but
twenty-one per cent, from Russia. To
this stale of things is partly attributed
the great monetary crisis nt. Moscow,
the continuous depreciation of the
paper currency, and the excessive
distress in southern Russia:
