▲ Little Judicious Praise.
No heart is insensible to words of
praise, or the kindly smiles of appro
bation; and none are utterly above be
ing affected by censure or blame. Oliil-
v . dren aro particular sensitive in this
ot. Nothing can discourage a child
ore than a spirit of incessant fault-
ding; and perhaps nothing can exert
nore baneful influence upon both pa-
At and child. If your little one,
(rough the day, has been pleasant and
dient,and you say to him, “My son,
you have been good to-day, and it
makes me very happy; 1 * and if, with
more than a usually affectionate em-
braca you say, “Good-night, my dear
child,” a throb of surpressed feeling
fills bin breast, and he resolves ou al
ways earning such approval. If you
grown son, or daughter, have accom
pliahed some difficult piece of work,
rendering you essential assistance 1 ; or
hava climbed some steep in the daily
drill of study; or have acquired some
tiew accomplishment, or added grace;
or, better than all, have gained the vic
tory over some had habit or besetting
sin—acknowledge it, see it,praise them
for it. Let them see by your added
tenderm 88, the deep joy and comfort
it gives you. Thus you will create a
great incentive to light conduct, and
lay abroad fomulxtion for a character
which shall be redolent with succulent
fruit and fragrant blossoms.-—South

/Stork or Cow Peas,
The gi owth of the stock pea is inter
esting, because of its value as a fertil
izer and for bev to tlio farmer, says A.
E Blunt, in the Country Gentleman.
There are several varieties giown here,
all distinct from each other in color
and value. The whippoorwill is small
and speckled; makes but little vine,and
is in little demand. ThiWcrowder is of
a clay color; the largest of all and most
saleable because of its handsome aji
pearance and valuable properties. It is
not prolilic at all, and is haul is raise.
Theie are seldom any iu this iriniket
Its name arises from the crowded man
ner the ppns grow i,n the pod. Tin
black pea is wor: bless, except green
manuring and hay. It makes enoi-
inouB vines and little fruit. The bluck-
eyr-d Lady makes little vine, is flue
feed, comes early and is considered the
best for the table. The clay pea—the
most popular, and the best of nil for
everything for which the pea is used—
is now selling here for seventy-five
cents per bushel. I mean that mer
chants are paying that price, and hold
ing for better prices before selling.
The peculiar characteristics of this
pea are ns f Hows : It has no tendrils,
but twines like boars, or runs upon its
own foilage. It is of rapid growth,
making in thiLu^uonths, on ordinary
land, an almost ini; <-iiuUuble mass of
Soilage tw o feet high, and so very dense
that it destroys all other vegetation—
even the thistle, vrngwted and other
noxious weeds. When well cured,
these vines are simply invaluable foi
hay, w orth, as ascertained by actual ex
pertinents, thiry-fhiee to fifty poi
cent, more than timothy. The only
difference iu making them the leading
crop for huy, is that it takes three da\ s
to cure them. Cuttle and horses prefei
such hay to the best of herds-gmss and
•ven to corn. Pea vines are the best
fertilizers we can use. By experiments
one crop of peas, turned under in J nh
or Augnst, haa proved equal in vulm
to a two-year-old driver sod. Full of
nitrogen and water, the decompose ii

to say, dies in half an hour. His opin
