What l Know About Farming.
A writer in the Cincinnati Times
having read Horace Greely’s book on
What I Know About Farming, with the
view doubtless of establishing a mod
del farm, after one year’s experience
gives vent to his pent up feelings as
follows:
The basest fraud of earth is agricul
ture. The deadliest ignis fatuus that
ever glittered to beguile and dazzle to
detroy is agriculture. I speak with
feeling ou this subject, ft>r i've been
glittered and beguiled and dazzled and
destroyed, by this same arch deceiver.
She has made me a thousand prom
ises, and broken every one of them.
She has promised me early potatoes,
and the ram had drowned them ; late
potatoes, and the drought has wither
ed them.
She lias promised me summer
squashes, and the worms have eaten
i winter squashes, and the bugs
devoured them.
i .
promised me cherries, and
the curculio has stung them, and
they contain living things, uncomely
to the eye and unsavory to the taste.
She has promised me strawberries
and the chickens have enveloped them,
and the eye cannot see them.
She has promised me tomatoes, and
the old hens have encompassed them,
and the hand cannot reach them.
ponder Cain killed his
He was a tiller of the ground. The
wonder is that he didn’t kill his father,
and then weep because he hadn't a
grandfather to kill. No doubt kis ear
ly Rose potatoes, for which h,e paid
Adam seven dollars a barrel, had been
cut down by bugs from the river Eu
pkrates.
His Pennsylvania wheat had been
winter-killed and wasn’t worth cutting.
His Norway oats had gone to straw
and woujd not yield five peeks per
acre, and his black Spanish water mel
lons had been stolen by the boys who
had pulled up the vines broken down
his patent wicket fence, and written
scurrilous doggeral all over his back
gate. No wonder he felt mad when
.he saw Abel whistling along with his
fine French merinos, worth eight
collars a head, and wool going up
every day. No wonder he wanted to
kill somebody, and thought he’d prac
tice on Abel.
And Noah’s getting drunk was not
at all surprising. had become a
husbandman. He had thrown away
magnificent opportunities; he might
have had a monopoly of any proses
sion or business ; had he studied med
icine there would not have been anoth
ci doctor in a thousand miles to call
him quack; and every family would
have bought a bottle of Noah’s Com
pound Extract of Gopher Wood and
Antideluge Syrup. Asa politician he
might have carried his own ward solid
J*nd controlled two thirds of the dele
gates in every convention. Asa law
yer he would have been retained in
every case tried at the’ Ararat Quar
ter. Session or t<he old Arch High
Court of Admiralty. But he threw
away all of these advantages and took
to agriculture. For a time the ground
was so wet he could raise nothing but
sweet flag and bulrushes, and these at
last became a drug in the market. '
What wonder that when at last he
did get a peck of grapes that were not
stung to deafh by Japhet’s honey
bees, he should have made wine and
drowned his sorrows in the flowing
bowl
The fact is agriculture would de
moralize a saint. I was almost a saint
when I went into it;. I’m a demon
tiow. I’m at war with everything, I
nght myself out of bed at four o’clock,
when all my better natures tells me to
lie still till seven. I fight myself in
to the garden to work like a brute,
when reason and, instinct tells me to
stay in the house and enjoy myself
like a man. I fights the pigs, the
chickens, the moles, the birds, the
worms—everything i n which is the
breath of life. I fight the docks, the
docks, the mullens, the grapes, the
weeds, the roots—the whole vegeta
ble kingdom. I fight the heat, the
host, the rain the hail—in short, I
the universe, and get whipped
in every battle. I have no admiration
to T
W asington for forgiving the destruc
tion of his cherry tree. A cherry tree
is only a curculio nursery, and the
grandfather of his country 1 knew it.—
I have half a dozen cherry trees, and
the day my young George Washing
ton is six years old, I’ll give a hatchet
and tell him to down every cherry tree
on the place.
To drive Rats away, said to be
used successfully in Holland. A num
ber of rats are left together to them
selves in a very large trjyp or cage,
with no food whatever ; there crav
ing hunger will, at last, cause them
to fight and thp weakest will, be eaten
Vy the others ; after a short time the
fight is renewed, and the next weak
est is the victim, and so it goes 011 till
one strong rat is left. When this one
has eaten the last remains of any of
the others, it is set loose ; the animal
has now acquired such a taste for rat:
flesh, that he is the terror of ratdom,
going round seeking what rat be may
devour. In an incredible short time
the premises are abandoned by all
other rats,which will not come back
*>etoro this cannibal rat has left or has
died

Anecdote of Ge;p Robt. Toombs
Toombs, of Georgia, is one of the
most gifted of all the erratic geniuses
that America has yet produced. Bike
Tom Marshall and William Haskill,
he is a natural born orator. Mr. Clay
heard him make one of his first politi
cal speeches at a mass meeting in
Georgia, in 1840, and predicted for
him then a brilliant future. It is re
kited of Toombs that, oh one occasion,
in the trial of a very important case
before a Georgia jury, be, by some
strange absence of mind, got up and
made a powerful speech against his
client who was the plaintiff in the
case. After he had spoken nearly an
hour, and was about to close, one of
his associete counsel whispered in his
ear that he had made a mistake —that
he had spoken on the wrong side.
For a moment only Toombs
perfectly dumbfounded, and recover
ing immediately, lie turned to the
court and jury, and said: “Now, may
.it please the court, and you, gentle
men of the jury, I have in my re
marks hitherto, attempted to give
you all, and the very best, too, that
can be said on that side of the case,
and though it may appear at first
1)1 ush a very strong case yet I am con
fident that if you will give me
your attention a little while longer, I
will be able to convince you that’
after all, my client, the plaintiff,
is entitled to a verdict at your hands.’,
He then proceeded to over turn every
position previously taken by him, exer
ting himself to the uttermost of bis
wounded ability to repair lis mis
take, and wound up with an appeal
to. the court and jury so thrilling, that
he carried them’ by storm and tri
umphantly gained the case for lis cli
ent. —Kentucky Yeoman.
ArrLES of Gold.— From the Eu
taw Whig, edited by one of the most
sterling and honest gentlemen in the
world, we republish the following,
says the Montgomery Advertiser,
which may be appreciatively termed
an Apple of Gold set in picture of sil
ver:
The sacredness of obligations is too
lightly appreciated. It should be incul
eated with earnestness by parents and
teachers. Disregard of debt engen
ders laxity of moral principle, and
public sentiment should be fixed and
unbending on this subject.
Au honest man never incurs debt
without the determination to pay;
and a community should hold up to
reprobation the character and con
duct of such as have the means, and
yet refuse to pay, just debts. Half
the ha,rd working, economical men
who struggles through the day and
far into the night, not to lay up
money but to meet pressing demands,
are thus circumstanced through the
villainy of others; and who, if enabled
to handle what is due on his books,
would be independent of any one.
Be Economical. — Look most to
your spending. No matter what
comes in, if more goes out, you will
always be poor. The art is not in
making money, bnt in keeping it;
little expenses, like mice in a large
barn, when they are many, make
great waste. Hair by hair, heads get
bald; straw by straw, the thatch goes
off the cottage; and drop by drop, the
rain comes in the chamber. A barrel
is soon empty, if the tap leaks but a
drop a minute. When you meau to
save begin with your moiidb; many
thieves pass down the red lane. The
ale jug is a great waste. Iu all other
things keep within compass. Never
stretch your legs further than the
blanket wifi reach, or yon will soon
be cold. In clothes, choose suitable
and lasting stuff and not tawdry fine
ries. To be warm is the main thing;
never mind the looks. A tool may
make money, but it needs a wise man
to spencl it. Remember, it is easier
to build two chimneys than to keep
one going. If you give all to back
and board, there is nothing left for
the savings bank. F are hard and
work hard, wbjle you are young, and
you will have a chance to rest when
you are old.— Ex.
Blackberry Cordial.—To one
quart of juice take one pound of loaf
quarter ounce mace, cinnamon,
cloves and allspice—to be powdered.
Boil all together fifteen minutes.—
When cold, to every pint add one gill
of the best brandy.

An Illustrated Monthly Journal claimed to be
the harispmest Papeer in the World.
“Give my love to the artist workmen of
the aldine who are striving to make their
profesiou worthy of admiration for beauty, as
it has always been for usefulness." — Henry
Ward Beecher -
T&E Aldine, while issued witli all the reg
ularity, has none of the temporary or timely
interest characteristic of ordinary periodic
als* It is an elegant miscellany of pure,
light, and graceful literature, and a collection
of pictures, the rarest specimens of artistic
skill, in black and white. Although each
succeeding number afiord3 a fresh pleasure to
its friends, tke real yalifc and beauty of The
Aldine will be appreciated after it has
been bound up at the close of the year.—-
While other public publications may claim
superior cheapness, as compared with rivalsof
a similar class, The Aldine is a unique and
original conception—alone and
ed—absolutely without competition in price
or character. The possessor of the volume
just completed cannot duplicate the quantity
of fine paper and engravings in any other
shape q«? utimber of volumes far ten limes its
cost.
The labor of getting The Aldine ready on
the press is so gieat that repri ting is out of
the question- With the exception of a small
number specially reserved for binding, the e
dition of 1871, is already exhausted, and it is
now a scarce as well as valuable book.
NEW FEATURES FOR 1872.
ART DEPARTMENT.
Tke enthusiastic support so readily accord
ed to their enterprise, wherever it has been
introduced, has convinced the publishers of
The Aldine of the soundness of their theory
that the American public would recognize
and heartily support any sincere eflort to ele
vate the tone and standard of illustrated pub
lications. That so many weakly wicked sheets
exist and thrive ia not evidence that there is
no market for anything better-indcod thesuc
cess of The Aldine from the start is direct
proof of the contrary. With a population to
vast, and of such varied taste, a publisher
can choose his patrons, and his paper is rath
er indicative of his own than of the taste of
the country. Asa guarantee of the excel
lence of this department, the publishers would
beg to announce during the coming year
specimens from the following artists:
W r Richards, Granville Perkins, J.nraes Srnilcy,
Wm HiTi, F O C Darlcy, R E Pieuet,
Wrrv Beard, Victor Nehlig, Frank Beard,
George Smiley,Wni 11 Wilcox, Paul Dixoii,
Aug. Will, James H Beard, J Howe,
These pictures an being reproduced with
out regard to expense by the very best en
gravers in the country, and will bear the se
verest critical comparison with the best for
eign work, it*>eing the determination of the
publishers that The Aldine shall be a success
ful vindication of American tas-ie in compe
tition with any existing publication in the
woi Id,
LITERARY department,
Where so much is paid to illustration and,
get up of the work, too much dependence on
appearances may very naturally feared
To anticepatc such misgivings, it is only nee
essary to state that the editorial management
of The Aldine has been intrusted to
Ml*. RICHARD HENRY STODDARD,
who has received assurances of assistance
from a host of the most popular writers
