From Pomeroy’s Democrat. Wicked Sixteen. BY SALLIE A. BROCK. She saucily said, As she lifted her head, There is nothing to me in creation, In delight will compare, I frankly declare, \Yith a delicate little flirtation. By the light of the moon, On an evening in June, Inhaling the breath of its roses ; Ob, delicious it is, With my soft hand in his While I list as his story dicloses. “ Then I drink in his sighs, As his dark flashing eyes, Like the stars in the midnight are glistening; And the stars all above, Seem too making love, While to his rash vows I am listening. “ But alack! I must own, My heart it is stone ! For to love him is out of the question; The thought makes me smile, Though it never, the while, Shall trouble piy daily digestion, “ It is cruel, they say, But what woman, I pray, In her moment of power does not wield it 1 ’Twould be stupid at best, It must be confessed, For these twinges of conscience to yield it. “They roll up their eyes, In saintly surprise, And tell me; “He will never survive it! It will kill him 1” But then, I am sure that most men Could only endure, but outlive it. “ Then allow me, I pray, In my own harmless way, To indulge in this one recreation ;'•* For I frankly declare I can never forbear, With a chance, a dellghful flirtation. Something fer young Farmers. 1. All lands on which clover or grasses are grown, must either have lime in them naturally, or that mine ral must be artificially .supplied. It matters but little whether it be sup plied in tlie form of stone lime, oyster lime, or marl. 2. All permanent improvements of lands must look to lime as their basis. 3. Lands which have been long in culture will be benefitted by the appli cation of phosphate of lime, and it is unimportant whether the deficiency be supplied in the form of bonedust, gua no, native phosphate, oyster shell lime or marl—if the lands need lime alone. 4. No lands can be preserved in a high state of fertility, unless clover and grasses arc cutivated in the course of rotation. 5. Mould is indispensable in every soil, and a healthy supply can alone be preserved through the cultivation of clover and grasses by the turning in of green crops, or by application of composts rich in the elements of mould. 6. All highly concentrated animal manures are increased in value, and their benefits prolonged, by a mixture with plaster, salt, or with pulverized charcoal. 7. Deep'plowing greatly improves the productive powers of every varie ty of soil that is not wet. 8. Subsoiling sound land, that is, not wet, is also eminently conductive to increase production. 9. All wet lands should be drained. 10. All grain crops should be har vested before the grain is thoroughly ripe. 11. Clover, as well as the grasses in tended for hay, should be mowed when in bloom. 12. Sandy lands can be most effectu ally improved by clay. When such lands require liming or marling, she lime or marl is most beneficially sup plied when made into compost with clay. In slacking lime salt is better than water. 13. The chopping or grinding of grain to be led to stock operates as a saving of at least twenty five per cent. 14. Braining of wet lands and marshes adds to their value, by mak ng them to produce more, and by improving the health of neighbor hoods. 15. To manure, or lime wet lands, is to throw manure, limo and labor away. IG. Shallow plowing operates to impoverish the soil, while it decreases production. Hen Manure, Ashes Plaster, and Salt. — John Jones, in the “Rural New Yorker,” says that a valuable fertiliser, and one in reach of every farmer, especially adapted to garden culture as well as for top dressing and field culture, is hen manure, ashes plaster ancf salt mixed in equal quanti ties, excepting the salt, of \YKich one fourth will be sufficient. Mix intimate ly and apply either in hill at the sur face or broadcast. It gives good re sults upon all soils and crops. I keep usually about twenty five hens these roost at a certain place the year round. Beneath the roosts is a light |)lank floor. The annual produce of droppings js six barrels, of the pure thing. Tliis mixed with the same o 1 ashes and plaster gives eighteen bar rels, the salt flings it up to twenty fjStric Is, or choice fertilizing compost, equal to much of the superphosphate of commercial manure firms, and worth far more than the manure of two cows. Josh Billings says: Don’t work before breakfast. If it is necessary to toil before breakfast, cat your break nrst. 1 i * The Lemon, It seems that the lemon posseses3es a certaiu efficacy against animal poi sons.—Many will recollect what Athe nee relates of two criminals, who had been condemned by the Egyptian Government to be killed by snakes. While they were being conducted to the place of execution, a woman ac tuated by pity, gave them some lem-* ons, which they ate. When after, wards exposed to the bites of the most venomous snakes, they received from this no harm whatever. The Governor had them sent to the place of execution again on the next day, in order to assure himself whether tbe lemon was the cause of a result so little expected, gave one ot them some lemon to eat, while the other received none. The former, al though bitten several times did not j experience any harm, the second ex pired in an instant ; from this, Athe nee concluded that the lemon, eaten after a fast resists all poisons. Mr. Sachet, a high officer, who has lived in the French colonies, has pub lished an interesting notice which has reference to this subject. “In the year 18G2,” he says “the Government of Martinique had the fort Besaix j which had been destroyed by the En- j glish, before the restoration of the is- 1 land to us, rebuilt. My company was | on duty in the trenches ; one of my j marine soldiers, while blowing up a stone heap, was surprised by a yellow snake (trigonocephalo or lanced snake) which bit him in the band. I bad a surgeon called, and he. having made crucial incision upon the wound, pres sed out into it the juce of a lemon ; the hand was already considerably swollen. After the operation the surgeon made the soldier drir.k a wine glass full of olive oil, afterwards from the same glass the sanre quantity of rum. In conclusion he told me to keep away from him all fear. During twenty four hours, he continued to administer lemon juice to the patient every half hour, and as lie absorbed into his system the violent beverage, the swelling <li minished, and at noou of the next day only slight traces of inflamation remained.” “As I expressccTTo the surgeon mv admiration at his truly marvelous cure, he made me the proposal to ac company him into one of the counter forts, veritable nests of snake. When we had arrived opposite to an old wall, the negro plunged his arm, up to the elbow, into a hole and drew out an enormous yellow snake, which he seized by the neck and held in the strong grasp of his hand and made it bite into one of the loDg bananas, which constitute the food ot these an mals ; it at once became as black as ink. But the surgeon having pressed out upon it, drop by drop, the juice of a lemon, the fruit at once resumed its natural color. Would it not be appropriate to make new experiments in order to ascertain the value of the old renown of this fruit ?”—Wine and Fruit Reporter. How to Cook Beets. —Beets are very nice cooked in the following manner: Slice cooked beets quite thin, put in a sauce pan with some vinegar, water and a piece of butter, with su gar enough to make palatable. Any yule is impossible. Taste it and if any ingredient is lacking, add more of it salt a very little, and pepper; thicken the whole slightly; serve hot. Beets may be skinned much easier by rub bing over with a cloth immediately on taking them from the water in which they are cooked, than by using knife and fork. As the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher gave out the last hymn in the morning service Sunday, a woman ot about forty years of age began haranguing the immense gathering. “Oh, you old free lovers,” she said, here you are in your tine silks and satins. You came here to worship the God of free love, and you care nothing for the Saviour of mankind. That will do, Mr. Beecher. [The pastor had resum ed his seat.] You can’t fool me— you’re a free lover and so am I. Free love is the After further ejacu lation she was removed by one of the ushers. WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

FIFTH YEAR. 4 A Representative and Champion of American Art Tiie iildino = An Illustrated Monthly Journal claimed to he the hansomcsl Papeer m theH'orld. “Give my love to the artist workmen of tuk aldine who are striving to make their profusion worthy of admiration for 'beauty,ah it has always been for usefulness.” —Henry f Vard Beecher - The Aldine, while issued with all the reg* ulanty, has none of the temporary or timely interest characteristic ol 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 blaclriand white. Although each succeeding number affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, the real value and beauty of The Aldine will be most 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,'file Aldine is a unique and original conception—alone and unapproach ed —absolutely without competition m price or character. * The possessor of the volume just completed gaunot duplicate the quantity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape or number of volumes for tea times 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 except ion of a small number specially reserved for biuding, the e ditioii of J. 871, is already exhausted, and it is now a scarce us well as valuably book. NEW FEATURES FOR 1872. ART rfkPARTMFA'T. The 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 recognise and heartily support any sincere effort to ele vate the tone and standard Os illustrated pub lications. Thafsomany weakly wicked sheets exist and thrive is not evidence that there is no market for anything better-iudeed thcsuc cess of The Aldine from tfie start is direct proof of the coutrury. With a population to vast, aud of such varied taste, a publisher can choose his patrons, and his paper is rath er indicative of his own than of the taste ot the country. Asa guarantee of the excel lence of this department,tfie publishers would beg to announce during the coming year specimens from the following artists: W T Rickard*, Granville Perkins, Janies Smiley, V,'m liar., F O C Parley, R E Pignef, Wm Beard, Victor Nehlig, Frank Beard, George Smiley,Win II Wilcox, Paul Dixon, Aug. Will, James II Beard, J Howe, These pictures ar:* 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 being the determination of the publishers that. The Aldine shall be a success ful vindication of American taste in compe tition with any existing publication in the woild. LITERARY DEPARTMENT. Where so much is paid to illustration and get up of the work, too ; much dependence on appearance ■> may very naturally be feared. To anticepate such misgivings, it is only nec essary to state that the editorial management of The Aldine has been intrusted to Ml’. RICH ARP HER BY STODDARD, who has received assurances of assistance from a host of the most popular writers and poets of the country. THE VOLUME FOR 1872 will contain nearly 300 pages and about 250 tine engravings.
