What Artemns Ward Snows About Farming-Bis Connection with “Eli Perkins.” We find the following letter embod ied in a “diesotation” «<n farming by Eli Perkins in the New York Commer cial Advertiser of Tuesday. New York, June 12, 1865. To the Formers' Club, Cooper's Institute. Gentlemen : I have been an honest farmer tor some four years' My farm is in the interior of Maine. Unfortu nately my lands are eleven miles Irom the railroad. Eleven miles is quite a distance to haul immense quantities of wheat, corn, rye and oats ; but as 1 havn’t any to haul, I do not, after all, 8uffer much on that account. Two years ago I tried sheep-raising. I bought fifty lambs and turned them loose on my broad and beauti fu! acres. It was pleasant on bright mornings after coming back from lecturing to stroll leisurely out on to the farm in my dressing gown with a segar in my mouth, and watch those innocent little lambs as they dauced gaily o’er the hill side. One day, my gentle shepherd, Mr. Eli Perkins, [that was me] said, “We must have some sheperd dogs.” 1 had no very precise idea as to what sheperd dogs were, but I assum ed a rather profound look, and said : “We must, Eli. I spoke to you about this some time ago •” I wrote to Boston for two sheperd dogs, and the dogs came forthwith.— They were splendid creatures—snuff colored, hazel eyed, longtailed and shapely jawed. We led them proudly to the fields. “Turn them in, Eli,” I said. They went in at once, and killed twenty of my best lambs in about four minutes and a half. My friends had made a trifling mis take in the breed of these dogs. Eli Perkins was astonished, and ob served : “Waal ! did you ever ?” I certainly never had. There were pools of blood on the green sward, and fragments of wool and raw lamb chops lay round in con fused heaps. The dogs would have been sent to Boston that night, had they not rath er suddenly died that afternoon of a throat distember. It wasn’t a swell ing of the throat. It wasn’t dipthe- ria. It was a violent opening of the throat, extending from ear to ear. Tnis closed their life-stories. Thus ended their interesting tails. I failed as a raiser of iambs. As a sheepist, I was not a success. Last summer Mr. Perkins said, “I think we’d better cut some grass this season, sir.” We cut some grass. To me the new mown hay is very sweet and nice. New mown hay is a really fine thing. It is good for man and beast' We hired four honest farmers to as sist us, and I led them gaily to the meadows. I was going to mow, myself' I saw the sturdy peasants go round once ere I dipped by Hashing scythe into the tall green grass. “Are you ready ?” said E. Perkins. “I am here ! ” “Then follow us !” I followed them. Followed them rather too closely, evidently, for a white-haired old man, who immediately followed Mr. Per kins, calltd upon us to halt. Then in a low, firm voice he said to his son, who was just ahead of me, “John, change places with me. I hain’t got long to live anyhow' Yonder berryin’ ground will soon have these old bones, and it’s no matter whether I’m carried there with one leg off and ter’ble gashes in the other or not! But you John—you are young.” The old n an changed places with his son. A smile of calm resignation lit up his wrinkled face, as he said, “Now, sir, I am ready !” “What mean you, old man ?” I said- “I mean that if you continue to bran’ish that blade as you have been bran’ishin’ it, you’d slash h out of some of us before we’re a hour ol der !” There was some reason mingled with this white-haired old peasant’s profan itv- It was true that I had twice es caped mowing oft his son’s legs, and his father was perhaps naturally alarm ed. I went and sat down under a tree. “I never know’d a literary man in my life,” I overheard the old man say, “that know’d anything.” Mr. P. rkins was not as valuable to me this season as I had fancied he might be. Every afternoon he disap peared from the field regularly, and remained about some two hours. He said it was headache he inherited from his mother. His mother was often taken in that way, and suffered a great deal. At the end of the two hours Mr- Perkins would reappear with his head neatly done up in a large wet rag, and say he “felt better.” One afternoon it so happened that I soou followed the invalid to the house, and as I neared the porch I heard a female voice energetically ob serve, “You stop !” It was the voice of the hired giil. and she added, “I’ll holler lor Mr. Brown !’ ’ “Oli no, Nancy,” I heard the inva lid E, Perkins soothingly say, “Mr. Brown knows I love you. Mr. Brown approves of it !” This was pleasant for Mr. Brown ! I peered cautiously through the kitch en blinds, and however unnatural it may appear, the lips of Eli Perkins and my hired girl were very near to gether. She said, “You shan’t do so,” and he do-soed. She also said she would get right up and go away, and as an evidence that she was thorough ly in earnest about it, she remained where she was. They aie married now,and Mr. Per kins is troubled no more with the headache. This year we are‘planting corn.— Mr. Perkins writes me that “on ac counts of no skare krows bein put up krows cum and digged lust crop up but soon got nother one in. Old Bis- bee who was frade yould cut his sons leggs ol Ses you bet go in, stan up in field yourself with dressin gown & gesses krows will keep way, this made boys in store larf. No More terday from Yours respectful Eli Perkins. | P. S —Eli has done better since he. got married. Artumus Ward. Much curiosity has been felt to learn the date of the first Euglish newspaper, and the circumstances under which it made its first appear ance; but the origin of what may be called the English newspaper, as the phrase is undeistood, is shrouded in mystery which none of the many ef forts made with that view have yet been able to explain. There can be no doubt that the first printed intelli gence of importance transmitted by Government to various parts of the country, in a form somewhat resem bling the newspapers of a half cen tury afterward, was sent to Lord Bur leigh, then prime minister of Queen Elizabeth, in the year 1588. The intelligence related to the fact of the Spanish armada having made a descent on the English coast. A correspondent gives the follow ing incident of the recent visit to Washington of “Spotted Tail” and his Indian braves: White Thunder, who is really a fine locking man, with wavy hair, and no ble expression of feature, seemed to be the favorite among the ladies, and in the hotels at Washington complete ly captivated one of the capitals, fair est daughters. She received an intro duction to him, and having secured a seat beside him, overwhelmed him with attentions, which he warmly re turned. Evidently it was a case of love at first sight, and the pale-faced maiden and the dusky brave sat hand m hand in silence. Spotted tail de tected in their glances evidence of their affection, and gracefully inquired if she desired to marry her lover.— Some one assured him that she did not, when the chief turned away with the suggestion that she “ had better let him alone theu.” MONTGOMERY COUNTY.

The reputation this ex cellent medicine enjoys, is derived from its cures, many of which are truly marvellous. Inveterate cases of Scrofulous dis ease, where the system seemed saturated with corruption, have been purified and cured by it. Scrofulous affections aud disorders,which were ag gravated by tlie scrofu lous contamination until thev were painfully afflicting, have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost every sec tion of the country, that the public scarcely need to be informed of its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of the organism undermines the constitution, and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous forms, eithsr on tha surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber, cies may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcer- >art of the body. Hence the occa- ottle of this Sarsaparilla is ad visable, aven when no active symptoms of disease appear. Persons afflicted with the following com plaints generally find immediate relief, and, at length, cure, by the use of this SAR8APARIL- J.A: St. A nthon y '* Fire, Hone or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm, Sore Eye*, Sore Ear*, and oilier eruptions o; visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the ations on some p; cional use of a b< lar and nervous syetems. SyphUi* or Venereal and Mercurial I)l*ea*e» are cured by it, though a long time is required for subduing these obstinate maladies by any medicine. But long continued use of this medicine will cure the complaint. Lcucorrha-a or Unites, Uterine Ulceration*, and Female XH*ea*ee, are com monly soon relieved and ultimatelT cured by ita purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Direc tion* for each case are found in our Almanac, sup plied gratis. Rheumatitm and Gout, whea caused by accumulations of extraneous matters in the blood, vield quickly to it, as also Liver Complaint*, T'orjiidity, CongetllonarInflam mation of the Liver, and .Jaundice, when arising, as they often do, from the rankling poison* in the blood. Thi* SARSAPARILLA is a great re storer for the strength and vigor of the system. Those who are I.anrjuid and Listless, Respon dent, Steeple**, and troubled with Ferrous Ap prehension* or Fears, or any of the affections symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate relief and convincing evidence of its restorative power upon trial.

Jan 1, 71—ly Ayer’s Hair Vigor, For restoring Cray Hair to its natural Vitality and Color. A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored io its original color with the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thick ened, falling hair checked, and bald ness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations daDgerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
