\V** truth * tho follr-wing extract
fr* **ti u very sensible articles,’in the
Cincinnati Commoner, of the 24th
ultimo:
She should remember that she
is two young to know her own
mind, and that, as a general thing,
it is not worth knowing. Girlish
attachments and girlish ideas of
men, are the silliest things in the
world. If you do not believe this
statement, ask your mothers.
Ninety-nine times in a hundred
they will tell you that they did not
marry the boy they fancied—fanci
ed before they had a right to fancy
anybody. If you dream of matrix
mony for amusement, and for the
sake of killing time, I have tnis
to say, that, considering the kind
of young men you fancy, you will
do quite as well if you will hang a
hat upon a elothes-prop, and wor
ship it from your chamber window.
It is during this period of unsettled
notions and readily shifting attach
ments ihat a habit of flirting and a
love of it are generated.
I suppose that coquetry, in its
legitimate form, is among a woman’s
charms, and that there is a legiti
mate sphere for its employment,
because, except in rare natures, it
is a natural thing with your sex.
Nature has ordained that men shall
prize most that which will cost an
effort, and while it has designed
that you shall at some time give
vour heart and hand to a worthy
man, it has also provided a way for
making the prixe he seeks an apt
parently difficult one to win. it is
a simple and beautiful provision
for enhancing your value in his
ryes, so as to make a difficult price
of that which you know to be un
speakably easy. If you hold your
selves cheap, and meet all advances
with open willingness and gladness,
the natural result will be that your
lover will tire efyou. I introduce
this subject here, not because I wish
to, but becuse l am compelled to,
in order to explain what I have to
say upon the habit and loveof flirt
ing.
To become a flirt is to metamor
phose into an immodest proceeding
that which by natural constitution
is a harmless and useful instinct
This instinct of coquetry, which
makes a woman an object to be
won, and which, l suppose, all wo>
men are conscious of possessing in
some degree, is not a thing to be
cultivated or developed at alL It
should be left to itself unstimulated
and unperverted, and if, in the
earliest stage of your woman-hood,
you do violence to your nature by
initiating shallow attachments and
heartlessly breaking them, or seek
ing to make impressions for the
sake of securing attentions which
are repaid by insnltand negligence,
3’ou make of yourself a woman
whom 3’our own sex despise, and
whom all sensible men who do not
mean to cheat you with insinceri
ties as mean as your own are afraid
of. They will not love and they
will not trust you. This instinct,
then, is not a thing to be harmlessly
played with ; and I know of few
more unhappy and unpleasant
sights than a girl bringing into her
womanhood this passion—harmful
alike toherselfand others.
The natural and inevitable influ
ences of devoting your thoughts—
spoken, written or unexpressed—to
the subject of love and marriage,
while your mind is undergoing a
process of crystallization, is to de
ter that process, to vitiate it, and to
make 3'ou unworthy in many ways.
It is all important to .you at this
time to have the counsel of a good
sensible woman, who .-hall be your
senior by at least ten years. She
should be a married woman, and,
by all means, your mother, unless
there be some natural bar to entire
communion between you.. J)o
ii-■thing, and give a cherished en
tertainment to no thoughts, which
you are unwilling to reveal to this
w oman. If your companions per
sist m keeping subjects of this char
acter before your mind, leave them
cut them,
It is accessary, while your educa
tion is actively in progress, that
M.-ijr perceptions be kept healthful,
and your sentiments unperverted
by thoughtless tampering with a
subject which you will sometime?
come to know is one of the most
serious moments. It spoils a girl
to get the idea into her head that
marriage is the chief end of woman,
t hat education is but a preparation
for matrimony, and that accom
plishinents are nothing but contri
vances for catching a husband,
A farmer's house should always be
retired enough from the main thorough
fare to escape the noise and dust inci
dent to travel, and this gives room for
the exorcise of taste in cultivating and

Floyd County, Ga.,
March 15, 1872.
Editor Farmer and Artisan:
In your psper you say " write for us.”
Well, l don’t know whether you are
talking to me nr not, but I concluded
to give you a trial any way. You have
a correspondent in this county, to-wit:
Judge Davis, who is a very successful
farmer, and whose advice and exam
ples are worthy' of notice and imitation.
But I write only to enable my brother
farmers “ to avoid the rock upon which
I split.” Weil, it was not a rock, either,
upon which I split, but it was a cotton
l>cd almost us hard os a rock. Some
two years ago I selected about two
acres of sandy up-land for a cotton
patch. I commenced working upon it
some time before planting time. 1
broke it up good and deep, and then I
would lay of! about eight rows and run
my wagon by the side of them, so as
not Id cross them, and carried manure
out of the wagon in a half bushel
measure and poured it in pretty thick.
And then I would lay off eight more,
ami so on. I then threw two furrows
on it with a small turn plow, fully a
month before'planting time; and at
planting time I threw two more fur
rows and planted with a cotton-seed
planter. My-cotton came up and looked
very well for a while, but soon began
to die out. But before it began to die
out I was bragging to m3’ neighbors
that I had two acres of cotton chopped
out and worked over and laid by. They
asked me how that could be. 1 told
them I expected to make as much by
my extra work as I would otherwise on
four acres, and so I called two acres of
the work already done. But my cot
ton seemed to be infested with a little
black bug, and kept on dying out, and
I began to replant the missing places
with corn, using the hoe corner-wise—
the only way the bed could be jieactra-
ted with a hoc at all; and upon reflec
tion I concluded the corn roots could
never get out of that little hole, and as
my cotton was new nearly all gone, I
put my plow In across the cotton beds
and planted corn. I raised a little
corn, but not a pound of cotton.—
About this t’l.-.e my wife says to me one
day: “ Look here, what do you mean
by wearing your Sunday hat every
da}’?” “Well,” said I, “wife, this

The Sandersville Georgian tells what
an old farmer of thct«ounty “ knows
about” ground peas .as follows:
We beard an .old former, the other
day, giving his experience in the culti
vation of the ground pea. Said he, I
planted an acre of good productive laud
in them. They grew finely and were
easy to cultivate. In the fall I turned
my pork hogs, one hundred in number,
upon this lot. The first day the hogs
went all over the lot, ns if looking for
the best. I had arranged a trough in
one corner of the lot near a well for
the purpose of supplying them with
water. After eating their fill the hogs
came to the trough for water, and near
this made their beds. From the first
day they commenced rooting for the
peas near the trough and thus advanced
day by da}’, going only as far as was
necessary to obtain a full supply of
food. Upon this lot I fattened this
one hundred hogs thoroughly. After
killing my pork I turned my stock hogs
upon the lot, and upon eating the re
maining peas they all liecame fot, some
of my breeding sows so much so that
I feared the}’ would never be of further
service as such, and I converted them
into pork also. He remarked that lie
gave his hogs no corn at all, and flic
consequence was his bacon and lard
was too soft. A little corn should be
given a short time before killing sc as
to harden the fat.

“Give my love to the artist workmen of THE
A LDIXE wbo are striving to make their profes
sion wort hr of admiration for beauty, as it has al
ways been for usefulness.”—Henry Hard Beecher.
^PHIE ALDINE, while issued with
_1_ all the regularity, has nouc of the temporary
or timely interest characteeisticof ordinary
it specimens of artistic skill, in black and
white. Although each succeeding number afford*
a fresh pleasure to its friends, tho real value and
)icaut v of The Aldine will be most appreciated .af
ter it Las been bound nn at the close of tlie year.—
W li i le <»t her pu hi ic pu hlications may cl.ti m su i>erior
cheapness as compared with rivals of a similar class,
The Aldine is a unique aud original conception —
abuie and unapproachml— absolutely without
petition in price or character. The (assessor of the
volume just completed cannot duplicate tbe quan
tity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape
or number of volumes for ten times its cost.
The la!>or of getting The Aldine ready on the
press is so great that reprinting is out of the ques
tion. With the exception of a small nunihci spe
cially reserved for binding, the edition of 1871,
already exhaust.wl, and it is now a scarce as w ell as
valuable book.
NEW FEATURES FOR 1872.
ART DEPARTMENT.
The enthusiastic support so readily accorded to
.their enterprise, wherever it has l»* en introduced,
has convinced the publishers of The Aldine of the
soundness of their theory tha^the American pub
lic would recognize and heartily snp|H»rt any sin
cere effort to elevate the tone and standard of illus
trated publications. That so many weakly wicked
sheets exist and thrive is not evidence that there
is no market for anything better—indeed the suc
cessor The Aldine from the start indirect proof of
the contrary. With a population so vast, and of
such varied taste, a publisher can choose his pa
trons, and his paper is rather indicative of his own
than of the taste of the country. Asa guarantee
of the excellence of this departinent, the publish
ers would ln*g to announce during the coming year,
specimens from tho following eminent American
artists:
W. T. Richards, Granville Perkins, James Smiley,
Wm. Hart, F. O. C. Parley R. E. 1’iguvt,
Wm. Beard, Victor Nehlig, Frank Beard,
George Smilev, Wm. II. Wilcox, Paul Dixon,
Aug. Will, ' James 11. Board, J. Hows.
These pictures are being reproduced without re
gard to ex|M*nse by the very best engravers in the «
country, and will bear the severest critical compar
ison with the best foreign work, it being the deter
mination of the publishers that The Aldine shall
be a successful vindication of American taste iu
oom|»etition with any existing publication in the
world.
LITERARY DEPARTMENT.
W’here so much is naid to illustration and get up
of the work, too much dependence on apjtrarances
»iav very naturally be feared. To anticipate such
misgivings, it is only necessary to state that the
cditoi ial management of The Aldine has been in
trust* d to Mr. RICHARD HENRY STODDARD,
who six* received assurances of assistance from a
host of the most popular writers and poet* of the
country.
THU VOLUME FOR 1872
will contain nearly ;u*> pages, and about 2.*»0 fine
engravings. Commencing with the number for
Tauuary, every third uutuber will contain a beau
tiful tinted picture on plate paper, inserted as a
frontispiece.
Tbe Christmas number for 1872 will b© a splendid
volume in itself, containing fifty engravings, (four
in tint) and, although retailed at $1, will bo sent
without extra charge to all Yearly subscribers.
A CHROMO TO EVERY SUBSCRIBER
was a very popular feature last year, and will be
repeated with the present volume. The publishers
have purchased and reproduced, at great expense
the beautiful oil painting by Skis, entitled “ Dame
Nature’s School.” The chrotuo U 11x13 inches,
and is an exact fucssimiie, In size and appearance,
of tho original picture. No American chromo,
which will at all compare with it, has yet been ef-
iered at retail for less than the price asked for Tbe
VMine nn 1 it blether. It will he delivered free,
