The rinks frequented by the shop girls and their “young men” are wretched places; the air is timid; the odor ot bad tobacco and of worse whiskey am, gtn tills the place. The music is of the barrel-organ variety; the girls—many of whom are very pretty—are dressed in the most execrable taste; the men are loud, vulgar, protane and ostentatiously wicked m their own little way. Of course, the rinks did not create these people; thev ex- .tstad hetorehami’ and the links have only afforded a means of bringing them together and as much interested in their childish games as themselves. A most efttoienl nursery governess Mrs. Langley found nor, as she gave the children their reading ami spelling lessons daily, aud played with them at addition and subtraction in a way to make the horrors of arithmetic quite fas cinating. She slept in their room at night, dressed them in tlie mornings, and romped with them all day as well as kept a gc.itle survtiUanctt over them at the table, where she always sat with the family, except on grand company intensions, when she disait- peared with them into a small temporary salon a mnn,/cr, where the three dined to gether, ^enjoying these meals mo-t of any. As Nelly Langley told her cousin Ed ward, with a laugh, she was not even called upon to play the part of elder sister except when she was in the humor.

Go again, Hattie, and look on the window sill; it’s just possible I might have laid it there.” Ilattie went and was gone a long time, but she came back looking more disaii- pointed than before. She had looked on the dressing table, on the bureau, behind the bureau, on the floor, on the window- sill—everywhere; but not a vestige of the turquois could she find “Hoiv provoking!

Hattie wasn’t angry. He was just like a nice, big brother ; but she thrilled and trembled under his kiss, and she dreamed all night of a fair young prince with a beau tiful turquois ring, aud he could find no fi iSer that it fitted till he tried it on Iter’s —just like Cinderella and the little glass slipper. Edward was as good as his word, and spoke to H -len very seriously altout the accusation she had made against Miss Thorpe; but that didn't mend matters, for Helen really believed that Hattie had stolen the ring, and tvas indignant with her cousin foi asserting thu contrary. A lover’s quar rel was the resnlt; and Edward kept tlie new ring in his pocket, and delayed the important question he intended *to put when presenting it. Miss Langley had a scene with mamma, and insisted that the little chit of a gov erness, with her deceit and hypocrisy, should be turned out of doors; but mamma chose time to think about that—she knew she had a treasure, and site wasn’t going to throw* it away for the'sake of a mere suspi cion, jpossibly unfounded.

We extract from the Macon Telegraph and Messenger the following interesting letter from Dr. Pendleton, Professor of Agriculture in the State College of Agri culture and the Mechanic Arts; EUtorTTelegraph and Messenger.—Your correspondent B., writes a suggestive arti cle on rust in wheat and cotton. Apart of bis suggestions apply very well to rust in cotton, but with all due deference to bis opinions, we think they are not applicable to rust in wheat.

She silently passed the cards to Miss ngley ‘ I told you so, mamma—the cunning, de ceitful minx !’ and the young lady flung aside the harmless bits of basteboard as if they had burned her. ‘ Nelly!

Let me make a clean hreost of it at onoe. The rinks, from tne Prince's down to the plebeian places where any one can enter by the pay ment of a six-pence or a shilling, seem to be open markets for the exhibition and sale of women. An old-fashioned man who has not kept pace with the march of aflairs dur ing the last few years would be astounded if be saw what now [goes on in these resorts. They are little better—in fact, some of them took their daughters to balls and parties to show them off and to win husbands for them. But then the mothers did the matoh-making; the girls obeyed orders; certain rules ot pro priety were observed; a man approaches a young lady only under the wing of some one entitled to present him and able to vouch for him. Now—at the skating riuks at j east ~ a H this ia changed. At a ball a young Jadjr does not walk out upon the floor and begin to danoe a jig alone, but at a skating you ""have?"

Some varieties oi • heat, owing to tln-ir more delicate struc ture, are more liable to rust than others. In Englaud, ^ fanners affirm that wheal sown in the neighborhood of the harherr. bush seldom escape this blight, as it is sup posed that the spores arc generated and preserved on these bushes. We have been asked, wliat effect would nitrate of soda have upon rusted wheat? As a remedy, it could certainly have none; as a preventive, and we suppose this is the object of its recommendation by the com missioner, it would act just like all other good nitrogenous ferti izers for wheat, b giving a coarser stalk, or more rapid and vigorous growth, and thus*nable the wheat to kt*ep ahead of tho disease. As it is very soluble, it is the best of its class, but costs too high to pay well on wheat. Certainly it would not pay well on rusted wheat, as it would do but little good until a rain came to leach it into the soil. By that time, it would bo too late, as the rust onlv requires a fotv days to destroy a crop. E. 11. Pendleton. Athens, Ga., Mag 6,1876.
