A WONDERFUL SAW-MILL.
The Story of a Wicked Gothamite uho
Left a letter in JJU Pocket.
St. Louis Republican Hew York Letter;]
It’s wonderful how these men man
age matters, hot sometimes they meet
their match, as a very notable gentle
man here did lately, lie has a moth
er living in a town up the Hudson,
and like an excellent son he hits made
frequent trips to her residence during
the summer. His wife some time ago
had a little difference with her ruoth
er-iu-law, and has held no intercourse
with her for some time. Hut never
interfering with her husband's filial
feeling she has always listened inte
restedeto the details of certain busi
ness transactions in which the mother
has required the aid and counsel of
her son so often lately. It was all
about a saw-mill and the selling there
of. Mr. W. flew up repeatedly at sud
den calls, always faithfully reporting
the tedious proceedings between the
man who wanted to buy the saw-mill
and his mother w hen he came back.
The wife very lately was “ going
through" the coat pockets of her hus
band, as every loyal wife should, when
sbe found a scrap of scented paper,
the fragment of a note, on which was
written in feminine chirograph}’ those
strange words: “ —not go until the 9th,
when of course you’ll have to see about
the saw-mill, and then we need not
The hand-writing on the wall
bad appeared. Mrs. W. needed no
help to unriddle that harrowing tale.
Most wives would have exploded on
the arrival of the perfidious man. But
no, she took counsel of herself, and pa
tiently waited for the saw-mill to turn
up. In the meantime she got further
proof in a letter she found from the
mother up the Hudson, who mildly
reproved her sou for his neglect, and
hoped Alice (his wife) didn’t prevent
his coming to see his old mother.
The ninth eventuated of a Monday.
Sunday the husband carelessly said:
“ Butler was down to see me Satur
day. Tho trausfer of mother’s saw
mill is to be made to-morrow; more
than likely I shall have to go up there.
If I do I’ll get seats and send Allan
up to take you to Roi Carrotle.” Is
there an imagination able to conjure
up tho tumultuous condition of Mrs.
W.’s mind as the terrible words
“ mother’s saw-mill,’’ were uttered ?
Wonderful woman ! sho contained her
self in calmness. Monday, after an
elaborate shaving and shifting, pater
familias kissed the baby and his wife,
and with another allusion to the
“ cursed saw-mill,” went down town.
Mrs. W. weut out, and interviewed an
Irish coupe driver who holds out on
Twenty-second street, a stone’s throw
from Mr. W.’s residence. Wrapped
in a water-proof, tho wife spent hour
after hour in front of her husband’s
business place—the curtains close
drawn. At noon a red-capped mes
senger entered the place, came forth
and waited on tho steps till Mr. W.
came out and handed him a note.
Then, equipped in his new fall coat,
tho worthy W. went forth, followed
close by the coupe. Down to Peek
slip ho went, on board of the Hart
ford steamboat be stepped. Jehu got
off the box and went in, returning
with word that “ Mr. W. was getting
a stateroom key given him.”
tihis was about 2 o’clock, and the j
boat left at 4. Mrs. W. went home,
made some chmieeUe arrangements for
her intended absence over night;
found a note from her husband—“just
as be thought; the saw mill was at it
again; shouldn’t bo back till Tuesday
night, perhaps Wednesday forenoon.’’
Mrs. \V. drove back to Peckslip, got
on board the Hartford boat and wait
ed further developments. As the last
bell was ringing, up drove a carriage,
out jumped Mr. W. and “ Oh, shamo!
oh, sorrow ! oh, bad mankind ! ’out
jumped a young and pretty girl of
eighteen or tweuty. Both speedily
went to tho boat, and in a minute
more the wife, tho husband and the
party of the third part were gliding by
Blackwell’s Island. If a realizing
knowledge of his coming fate could
have burst upon Mr. W., bow glad
would he have exchanged his fall over
coat for one of the striped jackets
wheeling stone along the island wall,
and put iu a thirty-day sentence to
escape what this month of September
brought him. Mrs. W.’s stateroom
door commanded the head of the
stairs. From its partly opened por
tal she watched. The gong sounded.
Promptly to the call of hash sallied
out the recreant W. aud the guileless
maiden. To the supper table they
repaired and thither also went Mrs.
W. bidding the waiter at the door seat
her opposite that lady and geutleman.
She sailed up in front of the loving
couple. The gentleman was at the
moment assiduously attending to the
wants of his companion, aud Sirs. W.
had fairly brought herself to an an
chor opposite, when he raised his
eyes. There have been moments iu
which men’s bain have suddenly lifted
when the horror or some awful situa
tion has struck ’em dumb. This was
the kind of momenta that overtook
Mr. W. His hair is red; it flarred up
like the burning of Moscow. Not a
word he uttered, but he rose as one
with a sudden pain. The lady oppo
posite did the same, and amid the
wondering glances and grins of the
boat hands, the husband followed the
wife to the saloon above. There was
a scene, Several passeugers being inte
rested listeners. The husband offer
ed no defense—there was none to of
fer; butch, Lord! what a repentant
roostc 1: j was ! Not au inch of back
talk in him; he made no sort of a fight;
he went down on the' marrow bones
of his soul. He retired to his wife’s
state-room, while his wife had a col
logue with the party of the third parts
aud very lively the female passengers
of that boat made it for her, gattiei
iug around aud expressing their opin
ions iu a way more free than pleasant.
The first lauding made by the boat
was at one of tho hundred aud one
Haddams that thickly stud the banks
of the Connecticut. It was all hours
in tho morning, but the husband,
perfectly satisfied that someone llad
dam, got off with the wife who had
him, aud from Haddam, the truly re
pentant came buck to New York the
next day.
An alarming rumor is in circulation
at Long Branch to the effect that an
island is forming in front of the prin
cipal hotels, which will eventually
make the Branch a far less pleasant
and popular Bea-shore resort and bath
ing-place. However, there are plenty
of other localities along the coast, if
the present site be found unfavorable;
moreover, the island is not likely to
form for a score of years to come.
God made both tears and laughter,
and both for kind purposes; for as
laughter enables mirth and surprise
to breathe freely, so tears enable sor
row to vent itself patiently. Tears
hinder sorrow from becoming despair,
and laughter is one of the very privi
leges of reason.
TIIE IRISH GIRL.
Talking about girls, it will perhaps
be in order to allow an Irish enthusi
i ast to have a little to say about the
i maids of Killarney and adjacent lo
i cahties. Ha perhaps gushes—but
then consider the Celt and flic theme,
and you won’t be surprised-
The Irish gii l’s character is made
up of two qualities, vivacity and ten
, deruess. The Irish girl is a natural
romp, so is she a natural lover. She
is the fawn of the field and house;
! domestic, devout, courageous, super
stitious, sentimental, filial, and apt to
be philosophic. If belonging to the
gentry, she receives somewhat the
same education us the English gnT
with tho saute thiuness in the curric
ulum ; but she will dash poetry iu
uil the prosaics, and iu belles letlres,
learn a volume while the English girl
learns a page- The national schools
are working a ievolution among *he
i wonted of the holier isle, and iu sad
political twilights are glimmering a
hundred De Staels and Speranzts
whose sons and daughters will blaze
in the next generation. Mark the
future of the Irish girl! She has fun
j far beyond that of the French ; an
i imagination gleaming with figures,
; but memory moistens them into mel
ancholy ; u» ambition wide as the
sea, willing to bear as many burdens,
i and compelled to hold nearly as
many dead, but narrowed by the iron
of traditional fear, and the nearness
of English guns. The chastity of Di
ana is born among her mountains,
aud it is a maxim among Irish wo
men, “in part she is to blame that
has been tried." The Irish girl is
she who has never had a chance in
the world. Poor, wretched, abused
as a child by the savageuess of disap
pointed parents, cold when ready to
be a wife, more ignominious than Ma
ry Powell to John Milton, miserable
as a mother, often supporting hus
band and children, but faithful as
Mary Powell was not, wearing out as
: the drudge of a drunkard, but never
standing before a divorce court to se
| cure a dangerous, if a legal, freedom ;
liu sorrow, gay ; in poverty, full of
| laughter ; with tears for others’ tears
j aud a rainbow smile through her
1 own. She may envy, but she is more
i likely to emulate ; she may be jeal
! ous, but chiefest of her self-respect.
The specimen we find in America is
' not always a good one of tho genius.
| She will falsify in a friend’s behalf,
but she will not siander or betray a
j foe.
Sbe is the daughter of the church,
! not of the gods ; and although not
always divinely tall, is often divinely
fuir. Her hursher feelings are pas
sionate in intensity aud emotional
duration. Her devotion to her fami
ly never pales; the brightest gold
j and the sweetest words iu Irish cab
! ins to day are sent by the white fin
! gers of Irish girls iu American work
rooms. She is more devoted to her
father than to her child, and it may
have been she that was in the mind
of Pope when he wrote :
Me let the tender office long engage
To rock the cradle of reposing age,
With lenient arms extend a mother’s breath,
Make langor smile, and smooth the bed of
death ;
Explore the thought, explain the asking eye,
And keep awhile one parent from the sky.
Unlike tho English girl, marriage
with her is au accident, rather than
au aim. She would as soon be a sis
ter of charity us the mothor of tho
Gracchi. But if the altar lamp does
not prove the magnet of her youth,
she is very liable to fall madly iu love,
to marry, and to abide unto the bit
ter end. She loves for the better or
worse ; chiefly for worse. Iu physique
she is unsurpassed, even iu Arabia.
Her feet are apt to be large, because,
like Maud Muller, she rakes the
meadows sweet with hay, but, unlike
Maud, digs turf in the bogs aud
plants potatoes on the suuny hills.
RAILROAD LOVE-MAKING.
One of our correspondents, a close
observer of passing events, who lives
in a little town which shall be name
less, tells the story of a love-making
couple whom ho met the other day
on the Nashville and Decatur Road.
They got on at , and once on
board, commenced billing aud cooing
to the infinite disgust of the females
and the amusement of the other sex.
“ I greatly admired,” says our corres
pondent, “ one favorite posture. He
was sittiag at the window and she
was anxious to see the country, aud
leaned across his knees to look out.
Os course he wasn’t going to let her
fall out and be left, so he got a good
hold around her body, and never
broke his grip for an hour. It seem
ed sometimes like tho pressure was
about seventy-five pounds to the
square inch, then he would slack up.
Sire was ‘mighty’ afraid of dropping
out of the window, for she never
whimpered, even when he tightened
his arms to the last notch ; that is,
when going across rivers and ugly
places aud high banks. After she
had seen the country enough, they
began to whisper, would bite an ear,
bolding it a little while and ‘ chaw
ing,’ like puppies do your fingers, iu
fun.
He would make out sometimes she
had bit him too hard and tousel her
for it. The touseling was the best
part of the performance. She knew
that she had done wrong iu the au
ricular matter, and ought to be
touseled. Most of them in tho car
thought so, and if she hadn’t submit
ted they were ready to help him in
the act of justice. Several of them
stood up now aud then, to be ready
if their services were needed. Some
of them were interested to such an
extent iu suppressing with marked
and repressive punishment, this un
lawful compression of the male ac
coustic organ between incissors of the
female, that they first refreshed them
selves by passing to the ice-cooler and
swallovviug deep draughts aud then
returning to the neighborhood where
the sufferer was avenging himself,
keeping their arms in position for
immediate use in ease of emergency.
The vanquished was doomed to sup
port the head of the conqueror till he
should recover from the fatigue of
j asserting his rights. I could tell you
I more.’’— liep. Banner.
Felix Neri, the celebrated professor
iu the college of the Propaganda in
Rome, once asked of an umbitious
young student what he proposed to do
| after leaving college. “ Study the
law,” was the answer. “ What next ?”
“ Why, enter upon its practice, of
course.’’ “What next?” “Gather
honor aud wealth.’’ “What next?’’
“ Get married, and set up au estab
lishment.’’ “ What next?’’ “ Enjoy
the results of my labors.’’ “ What
next ?’’ “ Why,” responded he, with
; some hesitation, “ die, I suppose.’’
“ What next ?” The young man’s face
fell, and he was speechless.
Little minds rejoice over the errors
of men of genius, as the owl rejoices
over an eclipse.
CARTERSVILLE, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 10, 1872.
POETRY.
[From Chamber. Journal.
THE SETTLER.
In a far distant land, the eye
Had cooled day’s sultry’ glow,
And shadows down the mountain side
Came creeping soft and slow
O’er pastures white with feeding flocks,
And sheaf-set valleys low.
For fields of yellow corn waved high
Where forest trees once stood,
And the woodman’s axe never heard
In the green solitude;
And Lnman footsteps never woke
The echoes of the wood.
But wielded now by sturdy hands,
All day the bright uxe rung;
In the midst of that vast wilderness
A happy homo had sprung,
And children’s gleeful laughter blent
With voices fresh and young.
Besido his door at sundown sut,
In the still evening air,
Au aged man; upon his brow
Were lines of weary care,
And man a fleeting year had thinned j
His locks of silvery hair.
’Twas half a century and more
Since be left his native land;
And now on plains of ripened wheat,
As thick as ocean sand,
And orchards bent with fruit, he look
ed,
And planted by his hand.
The sunset faded, and the stars
Gleamed in the tinted sky
By slow-degrees; yet still he sat—
That old man—silently
Sat listening to the tale his heart
Told of the days gone by.
Like hoar-frost touched by sunlight,
fled
The present from his eyes;
His mind stirred with the wakening
Os sweet home memories;
Again a bright-haired boy he stood
Beneath blue English skies.
Tho mill-wier’s rush he heard again,
The broomy dingles saw;
Aud the howthorns on the river bank,
Just as they grew of yore,
In the springtime of his boyhood, when
He pulled the branches hoar.
Rose up another vision yet
In that calm evenwhile—
The picture of an old green lane,
The well-known trysting-stile;
The shadow of a truthful glance,
A tender, trusting smile.
Twenty springs had brought their
flowers,
Twenty summers flown,
Twenty autumns on her grave
Their yellow leaves hud strewn,
Since last he kissed that cold white
brow,
And went his way alone.
Alone, save for the little cues,
Through whose clear, childish . yes,
The soul of bis lost darling lo< ked,
Aud bade his crushed heart rise,
For their sakes from its burdened pain,
To steadfast, high emprise.
But now that time of sorrow seemed
As though it had not been,
And the memories of the day before
Sprang fresh and fair and green—
The days when no grief-cloud had
dimmed
His life-star’s early sheen.
Through the dim twilight’s deepened
blue
The moon shone clear and still,
Yet steadfastly the aged man
Looked out on wood and hill,
As though he heard the sound of
bells,
Or the rippling of a rill.
Distinct and clear, as though it were
A scene of yesterday,
Seemed the cowslip dotted English
holds,
In the hamlet far away,
Tho’ he left thorn when his locks were
brown,
And now they glistened gray.
Around the cottage ingle-side
Groweth the Christmas brand,
Rings tho laughter and shouting of
His brother’s joyous baud ;
He feels the old familiar touch
Os his loved mother’s baud.
Hark ! the clear cry of the whip-poor
will—
Tho sound the old man hears,
And with it breaks the spell that
brought
Again those long-lost years;
And now he sees the calm bright stars
Dimly through gathered tears.
TAKE IT AS YO U FIND IT.
I.
I have a creed, a pleasant creed,
The wise may fling their scorn at ;
It lets me smile at many things
That other folks have sworn at.
’Tis simply this : to love my kind,
With all their faults and chances,
Aud not to see with others’ eyes,
Or feel with others’ fancies.
I hold this life too short for love,
Too long for idle sighing ;
The man who cannot cry’s a knave ;
A fool, who's always crying.
Through darkest clouds, I try to see
A glint of silver lining,
And think, though tempest may be
here,
Somewhere tho sun is shining.
The more that cynics snarl aud flout,
The less I seem to mind it;
I make the best of what’s about,
And take it as I find it.
11.
There’s woman, now. We run her
down
On various pretences—
Dear woman ! who divides onr joys
Aud trebles our expenses ;
Who caused the fall of man—and
Troy.
Well, with our common mother
Poor Adam had but Hobson’s choice;
’Twas Eve—or ne’er another.
Unto my lot a kinder fate
No such restriction grapples ;
For I could find a score of wives
Who do not care for apples.
And as for losing Paradise
(I’ve nought to say for Helen,)
Eve gave enough to every maid
For one true man to dwell in.
Then tend the flowers, till the land,
Be kind, and she’ll be kinder ;
Seek out the gold, nor scorn th« sand,
And taice her as you find her.
|
There’s friendship then, aud grat. tilde,
I That ought to be his brother ;
Their sire, true Humanity,
And charity their mother.
The cynic snarls, “ The first’s a reed,
That bends when it is lent on,
The othei’s nothing but a bribe,
To gain what we are bent on. ’
Well, every mouth is not July,
Nor every king a Nero,
Nor every saintly man a saint,
Nor every chief a hero.
The shadows give the picture lights,
The lights throw darknass them on;
You oauuot have a glass of punch
Without a squeeze of lemon.
And if some hearts are false, old
friends,
I see that Heaven assigned you,
For others’ shame to make amends,
And lake you as I Had you.
IV.
Why should I hate a fine young man
Because I’ve not bis inches ?
W 7 by should I limp along the street
Because your brodequin pinches ?
The charm that’s still a charm for
mo
For some has lost its power.
Must my heart’s goblet yield no
sweet,
Because they have turned their’s
sour.
My syrn pathy I’ll not’deny,
For that’s no cynic’s mutter,
They surely waut to take my faith
And fliDg it in the gutter.
But just because their jaundiced eyes
Can’t see the rose is rosy,
They bid me 6eek the hemlock tree
To find a summer posy.
No, no! my love, my friend, my dove!
I’ll in life’s garland wiud thee.
And take thee to my heart of hearts
And love thee as I find thee.

CONFEDERATE DEAD IN MA
RYLAND.
The removal of the remains of the
Confederate dead from the Antietam
battlefield to Rose Hill Cemetery, near
Hagerstown, is now in progress. The
Mail says: “ On Tuesday of last week
the disinterment of tho dead from the
battlefield of Antietam commenced
under the direction of Mr. Henry C.
Mumma, and reinterment was .contin
ued by the custodian of Rose Hill
Cemetery, Mr. Coxon. The County
Surveyor—Mr. S. S. Downin—had in
conjunction with Mr. Coxon laid off
the grounds, and no one visiting them
can fail to be most favorably impressed.
On the eastern or upper side of the
lot is located a circle iu which, for the
present, * ra vind will be raised, which
ii due mm: we ii-»pn to see capped
with a becoming shaft !•> ’* The Mem
ory of the Unknown uuu rii© liecog
nized Southern Dead.” in a semi
circle around this mound, and Cm the
gently sloping hillside, with their feet
toward the common centre, are the
slightly curving sections containing
the remains of those Southern soldiers
who fell on surrounding battle fields.
Between these sections are walks, av
enues and a serpentine drive, which,
when completed, will be everything
desirable. On Tuesday of this week,
Mr. Coxon informed us that he re
ceived one hundred and forty-two
dead bodies from the field of Anlie
tam, making the aggregate up to this
time, amount to three hundred and
forty-seven. Among those received
were two officers, whose names are
preserved, Col, Strong, of New Or
leans, and Capt. G. C. Whatley (act
ing Colonel at time of death), Compa
ny B, 19th Regiment, Alabama Vol
unteers, Wilcox’s Brigade, Anderson’s
Division. We understand that there
are scattered graves of Confederates iu
different parts of our valley, among
whom are some officers whoso names
are preserved. It is the wish of those
who have charge of the matter, that
those who have knowledge of such
graves report them to Mr. Coxon.—

TENNESSEE.
Cheatham — Johnson — Maynard.
The New York Herald has a cor
respondent travelling with the candi
dates for Congress from tho State at
large. He sent a couple of letters
from Jonesboro, which make the
chances look a little gloomy for Mr.
Johnson even in East Tennessee. This
writer says that in a party of thirteen
who were conversing about the can
vass, “ eight were for Johnson and five
for Cheatham.’’ He overheard one
man say to another on the street cor
ner, “ This fight is between Cheatham
and Maynard , so they think hero pret
ty generally.'” This, too, in Washing
ton, the adjoining county to Greene.
“ Not a round of applause broke the
long two hour’s stretch of his ,(Mr.
J’s> declamation.” In coucludicg his
address “it seemed us if he might as
well have been talking to a benighted
lamp-post.” Os Gen. Cheatham the
Herald correspondent says:
“Gen. Cheatham wound up tho de
bate. He said, in the words of Mark
Anthony, he was a plain, blunt man,
unaccustomed to oratory. His life,
when not iu the army, was spent as a
farmer, and neither avocation was con
ducive to cultivation of the grimes.
He accepted the position of standard
bearer of the Convention that nomi
nated him that he might do his hum
ble best for his country. He detailed
how that Convention came to give
him the nonnhatioti, and pronounced
it the greatest ever held in the State.
The General spoke calmly aud fluent
ly enough for about fifteen miuptes,
and oh concluding was given a round
of applause.”
Os the meeting at Bristol, the Her
ald says: “ Cheatham, though not an
orator seemed to have most of the
crowd at this border meeting.’’
THE CHEROKEE ROSE.
A rose ought to be beautiful which
has such a charming romance as the
following connected with its name :
A young Indian chief of tho Semi
nole tribe, was taken prisoner by his
enemies, the Cherokees, and doomed
to torture, but fell so seriously ill that
it became necessary’ to wait for bis
restoration to health before commit
ting him to fire. And he lay pros
trated by disease in the cabin of the
Cherokee warrior, the daughter of the
latter, a youDg, dark-faced maid, was
his nurse. Sue fell in love with the
young chieftain, and, wishing to save
his life, urged him to escape. But he
would not do so unless she would flee
with him. She consented. Yet, be
fore they had gone far, impelled by
soft regret at leaving home, she asked
permission of him to retnru home for
the purpose of bearing away some
memento of it. So, retracing her
footsteps, she broke a sprig from the
! white rose which climbed up the
poles of her father’s tent, and pre
serving it through her flight through
the wilderness, planted it by, the door
jof her new home in the lafS? of the
: Suninoles. And from that day this
beautiful flower has always been
* known throughout the . Southern
I States by thebiame of the Cheiokee

Y NEW THEORY ABOUT SEED
WHEAT, ETC.
I At the recent meeting of the Ex-
I perimeutal Farm Club, in Chester
' county, it was stated by Joshua Jef
feries,' who is, by the way, one of the
| best practical farmers in Chester
county, that in selecting seed wheat
(aud we presume the principle also
applies to other seeds,) it is very im
portant to secure “ hungry seed.” Up
on being asked by Everard Couard
what he meant by this term, he re
plied, a seed grown on a thinner soil,
cm under circumstances not calculated
to promote a full production aud full
weight. He thought from such seed,
when transferred to good land and
subjected to good farming, there was
sure to be development and progres
sion—that it must improve ! He would
prefer, in case of a poor ciop of wutat
on Lis farm, to screen out the lightest
portions, and sow the remainder, than
to procure tho heaviest and best seed
from distant places, because the laiter
would not be “hungry,” while the
other would be! He also stated the
fact of being at a relative’s at seed
time, a year ago, where wheat from
Indiana weighing sixty-four pounds to
tho bushel was being sown, and wnich,
this year, has proved a failure. He
had an offer of part of his seed for
himself, but declined, and predicted a
failure of the crop from it this season,
because it had been grown on a rich
aud congenial boil, and there was
probably in it no farther development,
i It was not hungry.
Iu this section the wheat crop gen
erally has been a failure, out probably
from other causes than the one allu
ded to, and it will require farther ex
periments before tbe “ hungry seed
theory ” can be fully established.
This theory rather reverses all pre
vious experience aud practice. It has
been supposed desirable heretofore to
procure the heaviest and best teed of
wheat, covd, oats, potatoes, rye, etc.,
on the supposition that, as in rearing
animals, \* like produces like. Oats
has been imported from Nova Scotia,
New Brunswick, Friuco Edwards Is
land, etc., because they weighed some
fifteen pounds heavier per bushel than
those raised in this section. Ihe
benefits of such importations have
been very marked. Though they
gradually deteriorate, because North
ern climatic influences are more fa
vorable to heavy oati than this lati
tude, vet by occasional fresh importa
tions, a higher standard is being
; gradually reached; aud the same is
true with other Seeds.
While there may be a greater
| change, or larger development in light
so and grown on poor soil, when trans
planted to a rich one, yet we are un
able to see why seed which has al
ready progressed and improved, should
not be preferred to seed in a state of
progression and improvement.
The application of fertilizers on a
thin-soiled farm produces greater re
sults than on a rich farm, because the
latter has already advanced to a high
er stage of.produclion. This is no
reason, however, why a poor farm
should be preferred to a good one,
and it has not so much mouial valus.
W hen the potato crop was very un
certain a few yeai’3 ago, we used to
procure Western Mercers, grown in a
rich soil ands ivorable climate. It
was found they, produced much larger
crops here than our inferior seed, yet
| they certainly were not “ huugry,”
but large aud fine. W e have great
| doubts about this hungry seed theo
ry of our friend J. Jeffris.— Practical
‘ Farmer.
THE SECRET OF GOOD BUTTER.
Every one knows how superior is
the reputation of Philadelphia butter,
aud many have been the attempts to
account for it. Perhaps the most
popular notion was that it was due to
the prevalence of tho “ sweet vernal
grass ” in our pastures aud hay fields,
the grass which often gives so pecu
liar a fragrance to meadow hay. But
it needed very little reasoning to de
molish such a theory as this. This
grass i9 one of the poorest for hay or
pasture purposes, and scarcely exists,
except on cold clay lands, in partially
shady places near groves or low woods.
Yet, while this grass is the exception,
indeed the very rare exception, in low
pastures, or in the hay fed to our cows,
good butter is the liberal rule in all
our morkets.
It has long been the opinion of our
best agricultural generalizers of facts
that we owe much more of the sweet
ness of our butter to tho abundance
of springs and spring-houses in our
State, than to any thing peculiar
which grows in our pastures. Milk
has a particular affinity for any odors
iu tho atmosphere, and water has
some; lieDce, whatever impurities may
get into the atmosphere of the spring
house is drawn out. by ruuuiug water,
and the very best security is provided
against their being absorbed by the
cream.
We notice this now through observ
ing au inquiry whether tho light of a
kerosene lamp in a dairy could possi
bly affect the quality of the butler;
we should answer most decidedly in
the affirmative. All odors of every
description should be carefully avoid
ed, if the very best brands are de
sired.
There is one little incident in this
reputation of Philadelphia butter
which must never be forgo:ton. The
followers of Penn imde up a class of
our original farming population.
With these people cleanliness was es
pecially one of the virtues. It was
not a mere sentiment that it was
“ next to godliness,” but an every-day
testimony iu all they dd. Aided in
these cleanly practices by their nu
merous springs and spring houses, we
have little doubt we owe to them as
much as to any other circumstances
the eminent character which Philadel
phia butter enjoys; aud wc believe
that if other quarters would give es
pecial attention to these little nicitiea,
ns good butter might be had in any
part of the Union as here. German
town Telegraph.
One singular feature of tho Thou
sand Islands is the luxuriant growth of
trees upon what seems to be almost
bare rocks, and solid granite. Ever
greens of a foot iu diameter, standing
upon what seems an absolutely soil
less rock, are often seen. The roots
of these trees follow down through and
oat aloDg the crevices, and thus gain
nourishment as well as support for tliei
tree.

REM ARKABLE CURE OF
SCROFULA, ETC.
CASE OF COL. J. C. BRANSON.
Kingston, Georgia, September 15,1372.
Doctor J. S. Demberton:
Dear Sir—lt gives me pleasure
to furnish you with an account of
the remarkable cure which I have experienced
Horn the use of vour Compound Extract of
Stillingia. For sixteen years I have been a
great sufferer from Scrofula in its most
I distressing forms. I have been confined to my
room and l>ed for fifteen years with scrofulous
ulcerations. Such was my condition—far mors
painful and distressing than language can
describe. Most of the time I was unable to
rise from bed. The most approved remedies
for such cases had been used, and the most
eminent physicians consulted, without any
decided benefit. Thus prostrated, distressed
. desponding, I was advised by Doctor Ayer, of
Flovd county, Georgia, to commence the use
of your Compound Extract of Stillingia.
Language is insufficient to describe the relief
1 obtained from the use of the Stillingia as it
is to convey an adequate idea of the intensity
of my suffering before using your medicine;
suflicient to say, “I am cured of all pain,” of
all disease, with nothing to obstruct the active
pursuit of my profession. More than eight
months have elapsed since this remarkable
cure, without any return of the disease.
For the above statoment I refer to any
gentleman iu Bartow county, Georgia, and to
the piembers of the bar of Cherokee Circuit,
who are acquainted with me. I shall ever
remain, sir, with the deepest gratitude.
Your obedient servant, J.C. BRANSON,
August 15,1872 —lm.
