Our farmer friends in this respeet have a great advantage over their eltv cousins, who seldom get a good piece of lioefevon at a high figure. ,Small families can aupply themselves with an early calf.

Besides the advantages enumerated, an- oilier lm|H)rlant ewnsideration is that sueli young things as are notdeairahle to keep for cows can lx* utilized while young with evident advantage to the pcrtoimrl of the hard. Why Oi-«>lirti-<U Itrrny. \ correspondent of the Valley Farmer says oreharda have died or Ix’eome poor from them* can sea: 1. The exhaustion of the soil from the constant empof apples; from the blow ing away by the wind of the leave* of the trees which nature designed to feed the soli on which the tree stands; by the crops of grass, grain, or root* coil- stanlly taken from tlio same ground and little return o| substance to it. ’-*• Another means of their dtatruction lias Ihvii in whipping the uYch with jades to remove tin* apples. Tad still another cause was the |*asluraj»)mnong d. To restoie them. It any were loft ""i th restoring, man must cease to crop the ground under them, and must tea nure them with vegetable mold, decay ing leaves, lime, wwxl ashes and salt. A compost formed of thou substances would be excellent ; or one formed in by soap suds and re film' slop- chip- the trunk* and branche* of the |**ach trees, ! might preserve them from tlio ray* of the aim, which were very ixwcr- ftil.

Wishing to carry still further my exper iment, I steeped in water some frcati leave* from the tomato, and sprinkled with this infusion over plants, rose* and oranges. In two days tlirae were also free from the innumerable inaorta which covered them, ami I fell sure that had I used the same iiionn* with my melon patch I would have met witli the * result. 1 therefore deem it a duty I to tlio aorirty of horticulture to make known this singular and useful property of the tomato leaves, which I discovered hy the merest accident.

Such are generally found to lx* very thrifty, and though they may have the cholera, it is so light that It is not oh- rved.

Mr. Joskins hux not Ixa-n a resident of Burlington more than six months, lie came here from Cleveland, Ohio, ami after looking around, he selected a resi dence out on Went Mill, because it was such a quiet locality, and Mr. Joskin* love* peace and seclusion. It i- a rural kind of a neighborhood, and nil of Mr Joskins’ neighlxirs kept cows. And every cow wears a bell. And with an instinct worthy of tho Peak family, each neigh- lair had selected a cowbell of a different key ami tone from any of the others, in order that In* might know the cow of his heart from the other kine of the dis trict. Ho that Mr. Joskins nights are filled with music, of a rather wild, bar baric tytx*; and tho lorn* starry hours talk nothing but cow to him, amt ho ha* learned so exactly tho tone* of every bell and tho habits of every correspond ing cow, that the voices of the night nre not an unintelligible jargon to him, hut they are full of intelligence and he un del-stands them. It makes it much easier for JUr. Joskinx, who is n very nervous man, than if he had to listen nlecture and wonder until he was fairly wild, n* tho rest of us would have todo.

Then when Mr. Joskins is called up from his second dose hy a lively serenade of To-link, to-lank, lank, iankle-ink- le, Innklc. inkletekinklcinkletclink, kink, kink!” Ho knows that Mr. Throop's young hrimlle is in ThroMtlowaile'* ank'ii and that Throstlewaite is sidi ng around after her in a f «lipix»r* and a night shirt, hy sitting up iu bod Air. Joskins hvnr tho tilings that Mr. Throstlewaite is throwing strike ngninst the side of the house and the woodshed, thud, spit, hang, and the character of the noises tell* him whether the missile was a clod, a niece of board, or a brick. And when the wind down the street is fair, it brings with it faint eclnx*s of Mr. Throstle- waite's remarks, which bring into Mr. Joskin’s lx<dr<x>ni the odor <<f had gram matical construction and wicked wishes and very ill-applied epithet*. Then when the final crash and tinkle an nounce* that the cow has bulged through the front fence and got away, ami Air. Joskins turns over to try and get a little sleep, he is not surprised, although lie is annoyed, to lx* aroused hy a sepulchral “ Flank, klank, klank !” Like the chains on the old-fashioned ghost of a murdered man, for he knows it is Throstlewaite’s old duck legged brown cow going down to the vacant lot on the corner to light anything that gives milk. And he waits and listens to the “ Klank, klank, klank,” until it reaches the corner and a terri fic din ami medley of all the cow Ix'IIs on the street tell him the skirmish) rx Imve lx'en driven in and the action has become general. And then from that on , till morning, .Mr. Joskins hears the “ tinkle-tankle,” of the little rod cow going down the alley to prospect among garbage liea|«s. and the ” rankle- I kle, rankle-lankle” of the short tailed j black and white cow skirmishing down the street ahead of an escort of badlv ax- I sorted dogs, ami the “ tringle-de-ding, I tringlc-dc ding, ding, ding, of the! utility cow that gixw along on the side- ! walk, browsing on the lower liml*s of the “hade trees, and “klank, klank. klank.“ of tho fighting c*w, whose In'll iscraoko<l ; three nlnces, and the inccsaent “ mix* -oo-iih-lia” of the big black cow that j has lost the clap|x*r out of her bell ami lias ever since kept up an unintermittent Ix'llowing to suniily its loss.

The endeavor, Intrepid, shame less, characteristic, to approve Tilden derelict in the rendering of his income tax has simply resulted in hopelessly smirching the fair fam® of the mask chosen to conceal Orantiam. The for tune of Oov. Hayes could not at any time be an unknown quantity. He has been in receipt of a liix*ral income since 1851), He hns practiced law in an ol>- scure way and has learned the methods of taxation.

He must in all these years have accumulated some taxable |x*rsoualty—yet upon rendering the account of his stewardship the year after coming into his uncle Birchard’s magnificent, proixirty, ho has hut $2,881 of visible taxable*. It l< fairly incredi ble that a man of (»oV.

The explanation of the governor is pitiably, ludicrously vague and insuffi cient. It simply denies the iHmaexsion of pianos ami watches which his neigh bor* remember him to have possessed. It explains the fluctuations in the list* from 1878 to 1870,ns the result of indebtedness. How could bis uncle Birchard have Ix-en content to render his taxable* at $10,000, if they were properly excused hy the plea* which Oov. Hayes’ now puts forth ? Birchard was an acute money gatherer. His whole life was spent in accumulating the splendid fortune which he turned over, Intact almost, to his fortunate nephew. Is it at all likely that in IS7;{ he would present the suite, in taxes, an amount vastly in excess of his legal lia bilities? flow, in one year, could the taxable* which Birchard rated at $lo ooo sink to $2,000 in Haves hands? He confesses that the whole estate is still in land, that not a nenny ha* Ixhmi estranged hy bequest or loss that the whole for tune which his uncle delivered to him, as executor without Umdx, in Jamiarv 1874. i* still in his hands and in tin name condition in which it came to him \,, w - with that admission, how d<x*« he rerun! eile these following statement* m.tdc under oath three years in succession . 2; i' statement indicates that luS d)d know, but deliberately evaded its compulsion for if the wholly trivial excuse put forth for the exclusion of taxable articles lx? accepted a* fact, it would prove that on his theory nothing bequeathed him by his uncle was subject to the nascssinent which liis neighbors were compelled to pay on like possessions.
