always done before. The inability
to mict bis obligation preyed upon
tbc mind of our fricud, and upon

lie dreamed that ho was very tick,
so sick indeed that tbo doctor was

The shock wax so great that the
dreamer awoke, and was much re*
lieved to find it all a dream. 11 is

. STRANGE CHARACTER.
Qne evening, during tbo pro
gress of the war Of tho . Revolution
in America, an old woman, living
in tlmettiwbaof Portsmouth, Eng
land, pas summoned to her door
bf r a Mnockf Aud/ on bpculng it, ;
found herself confronted with an
old mab, poorly dressed) with n
bundlo iu his hand, such as travel*
ers of his class frequently carried
on their pedcstrain tours.’
“Madam,” ho said respectfully,
"can I get to lodge hero to night."
“It aren't my business to take
lodgers,” replied tho mistress of
tho home, scanning tho applicant
closoly by tho light sho held iu her
baud,
"I s’poso not, madam—but I’m
a poor man, and want shelter
somewhere."
“Well, why don’t you go to an
inn ? there’s plenty of them in tho
fright. "I’m only trying to make
you understand your supper’s
ready."
Tito stranger glared at her for a
moment, then at tho table, and
theu seemed to comprchcud the
true facts.
"Oil! ah ! yes !’* he replied, with
a grim sratlc. "I beg your pardou!
—it’s likely you’vo spoke to nie
before!
"It’s like I hare, a half a-dozen
times just as I might have taiked
to a post!”
"Yen, madam, I see—I thank
you—I beg your pardon ! I was
busy thinking, and forgot where I
was.*’
Ho then took his seat at tho ta<
tic, and, while eating his supper,
tried to make atncmls for his for
mer impolite abstraction, by mak
ing himself as agreeable as possible.
He succeeded so well in his effort
to please, that the mistress of tho
house became quite charmed with
"Just because I’m pobr, and | ,,ia conversation, and began to

and that explains my business, and
I belong anywhere whero I happen

The old woman, who was poor

small, crazy, old h >uso, thought
she might oh well gather in a few
penmen, by koepiug the traveler,
as to let souio of her neighbors do

Jio replied:

the Painter, ns ho woikul iu and
took a scut m-ur tho fire, upon
which he fixed his eyes somewhat
abstractedly, while ho careluasly
threw kis hut nud bundle down bo
side him.
For the half hour that ilio mis-
treat* of tho house wus busied in
pic paring his supper, the traveler
^eerfied deeply absorbed in matters
of his own, and scarcely once took
his eyes from tho fire, or changed
his position. At first the old. wo
man glanced at him furtively with
an uir of ordinary curiosity, and
occasionally ventured some c-rin*
monplacc rcm»rk; but finding he
made no reply, took no notice of
her presence, and even iccmod not
to hear her, she became bolder in
her manner, and two or three times
stopped neur him, staring diroctly
iulo his face.
lie appeared to be between six*
ty and seventy years of ago, had
gray hair, a stern, pinched face, a
large nosa, thin, compressed lips,
and cold staring eyes, the expret*
sion of which was far from pleas
ing, and which was not redeemed
by anything else in bis counte*
nance. In tact ho semod like a
man not at peace with himself or
the world, and who was either
then brooding over sumo commit
ted crime or some contemplated
revenge.
“There, sir, your supper's ready,
if you waut it," at length spoke
tbe mistress, in a half querulous
tone, as if offended that none other
previous remarks bad been noticed.
Tho strange traveler took no
heed, but still eat staring at the
fire.
“I say your supper's ready,
man; and, if you want it hot, you'd
batter cat it before it gets cold;
for I'll not warm it again, this
blessed sight, fbr you nor nobody
else!" cried the hostess, iu an an
gry tone.
Still no movement—no response
—no indication that her unmusical
voice was not yet heard.

his ear, at the same timo taking
hold of his arm rather rudely.

whom good fortune had thrown in
her way for a future husbaud or
possible legacy.
But thc-*c bright hopes did not
have a long duration—for scarcely
Imd the ulrnngcr fmisfi his meal,
than l.e suddenly grew cold, taci
turn and abstracted, and presently
asked to be shewn to his bod. If
he ;>lcpt soundly, the mistress of
the bouse did not—for after tho
dispelling of the bright fancy of
future wcultb, site begen to fear
that tho stranger might take a no
tion to shorten her life bcioro
morning, and so lay awake and
listened, aud trembled at every un**
usrral sound.
Tho night, however, passed ofl
without any distuthancr; nud nt
daylight the old man roso and
went out, having his bundle be
hind. Hen reely was he out of
sight beforo the curiosity of his
hostess set her nt work to sco if
she could gather any new facts.
If he h id left a trunk, instead of
a bundle, she would probably have
found n way to opsn nud rum*
m.igo it; Imt us it was, sho had
only to untie an old, dirty hand
kerchiif; nud there, befoto her
eyes, lay a shirt, a pair of stock
ings, and a tin box—a curious-
looking tin box—for which, unv
fortunate for her case of mind, she
could uot imngino uny u:-o. Hhu
held it up, turned it over, shook
it, and tried her best to hco into it,
und conjocturo for what purpose
it was mode; but not being able to
do this, she at length resigned it
with a sigh, rolled it up ns she
found it, lied up the bundle, aud
went about ber own basimtn*.
John tho Painter came back to
a late breakfast, and thou sottkd
with the curious widow for nil be
had of her, nt Cbu same timo re
marking that be might possibly
remain iu town nuother night, iu
which case be hoped he would be
permitted to rcturu and pass an
other night under her hospitable
roof.
To this she now readily gave
consult, again thinking him a moo
of tomo consequence.
He then inquired where he
could find a tinman; and receiving
tho proper direction to one, be
bade her good-bye and started ofl',
ibis timo taking bis bundlo with
him.
Toward evening, however, bo
came buck, an 1 ho said ho had
concluded to stay another night in
town, and wanted supper, which
the widow again prepared lor him.
lie ate his meal in rilcnce, and
soon after made some excuse to go
out.
He was absent some two or tbreo
hours; and when ho returned be
reported that there was quito a
largo fire, which ho understood to
be in aomo government building!
that be feared would be consumed.
"But blessed are tho poor!” he
added, with a strange kind of a
laugh, which his bosteoa after
wards recalled; "for thoy hare
nothing to lose."
He then went to bed, and ap
peared to rest well through the
night, Imt rose at tbe streak of clay,
paid his reckoning, and took Ida
departure, saying be should not ro-
ture.
On going out, an hour or two
later, the widow was surprised to
sco tho usually quiet town of
Portsmouth in great commotion—
groups collected here and there, as
it diacutsing souio remarkable
event—and mouuted men, both
military and civil, dashing hither
and yonder, all seeming hurried
and at.xhus. Ou every blank
wall, too, there was a flaming pla
card, announcing tho startling fact
that a hundred thousand pounds
worth of naval stores had been de
stroyed by incendiarism, that se
cret emmissaries of the enemy
were supposed to be in their midst,
oflering large rewards for tho nr«
rest and conviction of tho guilty,
and ordering all citizens to report
to tho nearest magistrate tho nanus
of all strangers who had lodgod in
town during the last threo days,
and more especially tho last night.
As soon as tho widow fairly un
derstood this matter, sho hastened
to give in tho name of John tho
Painter, with a discretion of his
person, manner, conversation, and
withal, his curious tin box and
visit to tho tinman, Tbo latter
was immediately sent for, and de
posed that ho had made a curious
affair, tho ute of which ho did uot
know.
All this fully fixed suspicion
upon tho ccccutric old man; and as
it was supposed ho had been dis
patched from town to some distant
point by relays of horses, horses
mcji were sent oil’ iu every direc
tion iu hot pursuit, with orders to
urrest every mounted pcr£on they
might find.
Homowhero about mid-day John
tho Painter was overtaken, on tho
regular Loudon road, by one of
these mounted parties, who stop*
pod and inquired if any otio lmd
passed him on horseback that
morning.
“ Not a soul," rcplicJ tliQ old
“How long have you been on
this road V
"Since daylight. Why ?”
“There was a great destruction
ol naval stores in Portsmouth Inst
uight, the woik of some infernal
inccndury, and wo want to catch
tho villian."
“Well, do you s'pQtfO he (led ou
horseback said the old man,
with a peculiar twinkle of his eyes.
“Undoubtedly."
“Well, ho didn't—ho went on
foot."
‘Ha! how do you know ?”
Because l know tho man who
did it."
" Who is he? Where is hj?’’
demanded tho leader cxcitct n y .
“IJo’a called John tho Puiutor,
und lie's here, I’m tho limn."
"Tako caro how you jest, old
fellow 1” lotiirncd tho other warms
ingly; "it might get you.iuto trou
ble."
“II you can’t understand plain
English, you’re as.big % fool as
your royal master is a knave 1"
said tho old man, with au angry
I tell you I’m the man
that did it—aud Pin tho man that
glories in it—and if you don't be
lieve me, rido on and hunt till you
g*t sense ! ’ *
Tho horsemen now thought the
old man was crazy; but, uftcr what
ho had said, thoy concluded to ar
rest him and tako him book to
Portsmouth. They did so, and
thoro ho was coufronted with the
old woman and tbo tinman, both
of whom identified him ns tbc mys
tcrioua stranger they had describ
ed.
He was t huu asked to mako a
confession and uamo bis accorn-
pliccs.
"I uever had any accomplices,
said tho old tuau, indignantly.
What I did I did alone, and 1
glory iu it. I oneo lived peacea
bly and happily in tho quiet little
town of Amboy, Stato of New Jer
sey, far away over the groat waters;
und I'd been living peaceable there
to-day, if the mtuiona of King
George bad loft mo alone; but they
camo there, and insulted and abus
ed me, and horned down my dwell
ing, and cast me adrilt to shift for
myself—and then I took a solemn
oath I'd bo revenged. It was ray
first Intention to kill yonr vile king;
and I'd have done it, only for Mr.
Deane onr secret minister at Paris
who convinced me it was wrung to
slay tbo Lord's Anointed; and so,
as the next beat thing, I determined
to burn as much of tho king’s
property ns I could. I camo direct
from Paris here, and yon know
what l’vo done since I got hero,
sad that’s enough. I know you'll
bang mo for H—but I don’t care
for that. I'm a poor, friendless,
old man, made sick of life by yonr
accursed deeds end now, that I've
got my revenge, I don’t care ho#
soon I die.
They sent the old man, under
guard, to London, where he un’
derwent a close cXaihlnation beforo
the Privy Council—but no new
facts were elicited. Ho strictly
adhered to his first statement; and
mainly on his own evidence, or
coufession, he was tried, convictod
sentenced, and hanged. •
Wo have only to ndd, that tho
foregoing may be relied on as
strictly authentic.
Making a Farm Self-supporting.
The great secret of all successful
farming is to mako tho /and pro
duce sutliuient for tho outlay of
capital aud labor, and have a bal
ance on hand each year. This is
business und farmiug for profit.
When a lurrncr finds that his
land is not paying iutyrest on cap
ital invested ho should take a can
did view of ihe situation and usk
himself the cause, and by tbus do
ing be will arrive nt tho solution
ot why farming does not pay or is
lf-siipporting. The primal
cause lie will fiud is poor laud aud
badly cultivated soil. There is no
uso, gcullcnien, going through the
mechanical operation of plowing,
harrowing and rowing seed ou land
that has not got tho proper clc»-
incuts of plant food to raise a crop.
It is very littlo uso of a man buy*,
iug costly and numerous machines,
a* ho must at the present time, to
farm but poor land. Tho same
machinery is only required to raise
ol) bushel* to the acre that would
only bring 10 bushel* on poor, un
drained and badly kept land.—*
Poor farms improperly cultivated
and uiHiingcd won’t pay for the
implements and labor, aud hence
cannot bo self supporting. It is a
great fallacy to think any man
can farm aud that any man can
make money out of a farm. Tho
greatest dilligcnce is required at
the present time to prosecute farm
ing with any degr^o of success,
unless more intelligence and busk
nets is thrown into iL Like every
other calling ihe profits aroincrcas
cd accoiding to tho business tact
and intelligence of tbo operator.
B.it tbcie U*tuore steady monoy iu
farm'iug than any other business.
Tbo returns may bo slow, but thoy
are sure aud certain, and not only
should they bo sclf*supporting,but
by proper management a good
margin of profit cau bo had.— A’x-

Tho Cotton Planter-Why Ho Is
Always in Debt. •
A few words now to my cotton
friends. Tho time was when oar
calling was high—when we were
boys tho cotton planter and banker
woyo equal. At planting timo we
were actually annoyed by tho cons
faience clerks of commission mer
chants, vuitlng ua in tho field with
bags of gold and Mobile bank
bills, legging ua to uso their mon
ey; only percent., no mortgage,
only ship us your eotton when you
pleoao. Now what a change. Our
calling has lost its prestige. A
mortgage, probably, on yonr home
or landed interest, your mules or
other personal property, with a
uoto at 12 per cent, due tbe 1st
day of September or October, with
nn obligation that so many boles
of cotton be delivered in good or
der on that day. The price n act
and away goes your hard earnings.
Why this ebango iu things ? In a
few words, I will tell you; at least
two-thirds of thoso eugaged in
raising cotton aro using boirowed
capital to invest in tho moat haz
ardous game of cbanco ever played.
Just say, if 1 must borrow money
to raise cotton, I will plaut corn.
Jn other words, if you have any
money to spare, raise the cotton.
Then wo can say when to sell and
at what price. One more word: la
there one of ua loo poor or loo
much tied up (as tbo saying is) to
control our cotton seed this year ?
The oil mills bavo act tho price.
Can't you pay the gin toll and
haul your seed home, feed plenty
to your cattle next winter, hooee
the balance ? They will make oil
five years from now; don't submit
to a set price. lazy, down with

These animals are divided into
many species, although some hab
its are common to all.
They subsist on ice cream in
summer and oysters in winter,
Some ef tho different species are
obstinate; pretty, homely, talented,
stupid, young and old.
The obstinate kind when young
is known by an expression ike uses,
which is, "Well, I won’t play.”
When anything goes wrong she
"won’t play."
A few years later she is called a
"willful beauty."
When she marries sbo is plain
obstinate.
As an illustration of tbo decided
manner of this species I will give
you an example:
One of them received an offer of
marriitgc from an objectionable
suitor, whereupon she crushed him
tltuslv: “1 wouldn’t marry you for
anything, and if you acre the last
man on earth I'd call my father
and havo you put out."
Among the pretty girls may be
claesed your own girl, rich girD,
and a( tresses.
At least, l never saw an actress
that wasn’t pretty—ou her litho
graphs.
Homely girls are generally poor,
or religious, at least they’re tho
kind that arc called homely.
Tho mo-t talented girls nro the
ones you aro conversing with, and
tbo stupid girls nro tbo ones f-ho i*
talking about. Remember that.
Young girls! Oh, "tho woods
aro full of ’em."
So nro the cities.
1 ho species of old girls are cx%
tinct. Girls remain young till
they got married, then thoy l>c-
couio young women.
Soino women havo an idea that
they cm do anything their bus**
bands can do.
I rctnembor one who watched
her husband kill a rat in tho back
yard.
The next day she saw one in the
parlor, sa, after procuring the in
strument of doatb, a shotgun, she
resolved that he should dio. And
ho did.
Ho ran io under her offer tbo

crushed to death.

Always apologize to her, and

A slightly built young than of
my acquaintance was sauntering
along, when u heavy act bustling

did not even stagger hor, but tbe
young man sat down ou aa iron
grating very, very bard. It gave
way, and bo was precipitated Into
a heap of rubbish in the cellar.
Tbe lady glared indignantly ^fter
him. Tho young man shook a
barrel of rubbish off his head,
spit out a scuttle of Mbes, and
gasped, "1—I beg youV J&tfon,

died.
