A young gentleman named Joseph White, a very respectable, industrious, quiet, good-looking lellow of about eigh teen years of age, nnd a resident of Ger mantown, wont to South Nashville Satur day night to visit his lady-love, a Miss Rarnes. He had been frequently to visit her before at various times. They were enuaged to be married. lie found her in should be. She was anxious to (lnisTilho article, and therefore concluded not to throw it aside when lie entered, particu larly as he complilneutcd her on her pret- ty appearance, with her beautiful faco bending oyer her work, and her slender lingers Hying, as sho plied the stitches, with as much grace and rapidity as other girls display when skimming over the keys of a nasty piano. He took hrs sent beside her. They chat ted very gaily. After waiting a few min utes, which to him seemed hours, he be came impatient, and longed to imprint a kiss upon her lips. With the view of car rying out the design lie let his arm circle her waist furtively, and as h(%us drawing her close to himself she objected to being disturbed until her little work was finished; but ho insisted. .She made a. motion to shove him’ olf, as girls are said to, gener ally. This motion proved fatal to ht‘r hap piness and to his life. He became impetu ous, and drawing her to him with much violence, the needle, which was caught in aw ua iiwi> wi yiuwu muni, i, uuii liiuj* uiu done, put them on odiSli to cool. Lay them caroiully into a jar, boll tho syrup a few minutes after tho ponchos aro down, and strain It hot over the peaches. ANOTHER MODE. Peel the peaches; weigh a pound of su- gnr to a pound of pouches; strew hnlf the sugar oil to the poaches, nml let them stand over night. Next day turn oil' the syrup, alia add the rest of the. sugar, boil the syrup about fifteen minutes, put In tho poaches nnd boil them until they arc ten der; take them out to cool, then put them in jnrs, nnd strain tho syrup hot Into them; let them stand two or throo days. If tho syrup has become thin at tho top of the, jar, turn tho syrup and peaches into the. preserving kettle, give them one boil, ami put them into jars when cold. Put paper wet with brandy over the mouth of the jars,, and tlicn^a bladder over it, and tic them up. ' DRANDY PEACHES. Prepare them as before directed, except- “It is objected that wo cannot deprive nny portion of our citizens of tho right of sillfrago already granted to them. Tlicro Is no ground upon which to base such a conclusion; hut if even tho argument was sound it would afford no plea ngalnst tho proposed change in tho laws governing tho right of suflVngo. Suppose Congress, dur ing tho'noxt session,^enacted a sixteenth amendment to tho constitution, requiring tho qualification of ‘ability to read and write tho English language correctly,’ as tho condition of a ,light of suffrage), to take effect in one, two, or nny certain nunv her of yonrs licnco that might bo agreed upon, and called upon tho dilleront StateB to ratify their act, what State or class of intelligent citizens would object to tho proposition?

Tho finest and beBt varieties of the cere als hnvo generally been originated hy tho selection of tho largest and best filled ears nthnrvcsttlmonnd propngntlngfrom them until largo quantities of seed wero obtain ed amt disseminated. Tho potato oat which libs been so long celebrated for Its great Weight and productiveness was ;u’op- ngntod from a single plant of extraordina ry slzo'whlcli a gentleman found growing In his Held in Cumberland, England.— EvOry Ihrmer should endeavor to obtain a now variety of seed to refresh or reilow nn old ono by selecting the best.liends of wheat, oats, barley or ryo nt the tlmo of harvesting, nndcarcflilly propagating from thorn, until, In tho eoiirso of time, onougli will be obtalnod to supply hlmsolf and Ills neighbors with all tli'oyiiinynecd.®If this were done wo would Hot hear so much nbout tho deterioration of the cereal crops. Tho falling off in tho ncrcnblo yield of tho wheat crop is pnrtly occasioned by tho uso of worn-out seed, and partly hy super ficial tillage. It Is Vain to expeot a good crop of any kind from deteriorated seed son'll oil impoverished Roll. When to theso evils aro added shallow plowing and tho want of draining, manuring, nhd a rota tion of crops, tlio wonder is, not that lljo crops aro light, but that they are not still lighter. In preparing land for wheat, stngnnnt water should.be got'ridof, grass nnd weeds eradicated, nnd if tho soil is not possessed of tlio noccssary Ingredients, they should bo supplied hy manure. hor thimble, got between them, the point toward his heart—it entered; and ns he Baltimore.

He sickened, loll back upon the sofa quite helpless. Tho young lady was much alarmed and ran lot* assistance. The family all ran into the room and proceeded to*open his shirt col lar, thinking he was in a fainting lit, and that the. usual restoratives Yvoujd suffice. In undoing his \’est, it Yvas found that the needle had entered his side very deeply— a circumstance which the young lady nev er noticed in her fright. The doctor was sent for. lie administered what remedies he could. Partial consciousness was re stored, and the young fellow enabled to Walk. The scene between him and his (first) last love Yvas extremely affecting.— Sho Y\*ept like one that feels that all hap piness on earth is lost, lie consoled her by flaying that she Yvould get another lover soon to fill his place, who would be more worthy of her than he could hope to be, and yvIio Yvould make’ her happy. 1 This but increased her sorrow. She laid down on the floor hesido him, and cried aloud.

Let tho Indians tell their OYvn story, ami they Yvill clear up a great many mysteries .about these Indian YY'ars YY’hich hnvo been such a heavy charge on the public Treas ury. In an intervIcyy' last Sunday hetYveen the Osage tribes and the Chairman of tho Congressional Committee on Indian Af fairs, the former let out tliQ Yvholc secret of their troubles. They had, it appears, been driven into assenting to a treaty by tho terms of Yvlrich they Yvcro to part Yylth their rcsciwations for only nineteen cents per licrcj and they justly denounce it os a fraud and swindlo, explaining that tho as sent of the chiefs of the tribes Yvas extort ed hy bribes and threats. They desired that no suclnbnrgain should bo ratified by Congress. Besides, their lands had been largely squatted on, the choice timbers felled or destroyed, their annuities go un paid, and they are systematically lleecfcd and cheated on every side. This is their brief hut pointed complaint. If it proves to he yvcII founded—as there certainly can not but he some grounds for it—instead of troops, justice might properly be talked of, and tho cause of the Yvcak as yvoII be sustained in the person of tho red man of tho plains as of the black man of the plan tations.

Tho clerk, YY r ho was summoned to devise some oflenso against them, told them to close the WindoYvs and put out the gas. They acted upon tho suggestion nnd placed themselves betYvcen the sheets. Just as they began to doze, a lightning bug, which had strayed into the room, caught the eyo of ono of tho travelers. lie roused hift companion Yvlth a punch. “Jamie, Jamie, its no use!

Tho stock consists of 200 box cars, 100 flat cars, 10 first class and 10 second class prt^ senger cars, *10 mall and haggago cars, 10 crank and 800 polo cars.

The juice of any sound, ripe fruit may be canned, or put in jugs, and scaled up aright, wliilo it is scalding hot. just ns Yvo nut up canned fruit, and may he kept any length of time if properly put up; A smnll’bottlc of such juice may ho opened at any time, and mixed Yvlth Yvater and sugar, making a pleasant drink, or Yvino that iH not intoxicating. Or better still, such juices aro excellent to use over vege tables instead of vinegar, or with bread, when fruit isscqrco; cliilurcn Yvould often prefer fruit juices, cY'en without sugar, to molasses or milk. Much good fruit might ho used in this Yvny that is now left to rot becauso it is too small to pick over. Any fruit Yvorth gathering, if ripe and good, ine ami got.., may be Yvasncd and pressed, or scalded, must he’made boiling hot and put* into jugs, or bottles, and properly sealed. Middle and Western Divisions of the State, hut in East Tennessee, Yvhere, at the com mencement ot the canvass, the friends of Col. Stokes confidently claimed a majority of twcnty-fivQ thousaml. As far iis re ceived, Governor Scnter’s majority foots up at 01,000, with 23 counties to* hear from, Yvhicli Yvill probably iucreasc the figures.* In the Legislative elections, the result is equally satisfactory. Not a single Stokes candidate has been elected to the Senate, and, so far as yvc have noticed to this time, but eight or ten to the House of Hepresen- tatiY’es—hardly sullMent t$ make the op- posion fespe’ctahle.

Affairs In Ohio. The Democratic Executive Committee of Ohio, called together after receiving iiOYVs of Gen. Rosenernnz’s declination, took the responsibility of putting another candidate in the field Yvithout calling an other Convention. This they Yvcrc ena bled to do hy ihc consent of lion. George II. Pendleton to accept the nomination, Which ho persistently refused to do, Yvhilo the original Convention was in session.— If he could then lrn’c been prevailed upon to gh'e his consent to become a candidate he Yvould probably have receh'cd a nearly unanimous npminution. With this great and good man as standard hearer of the Ohio Democracy every effort*of that gal lant party Yvill he, enlisted to insure suc cess— every nerve Yvill be strained—every stone turned. On the other hand the Rad icals Yvill he* stirred up to their highest achievements, and yvc may look for a con test iu Ohio not exceeded in spirit and de termination by that of last Fall. Tho YVrong Man in the YVr51HI!-l!!.W p ;l, A few days sinco a young couple just married at Watcrbury, Conn., got on hoard a train on the Nangatuck Road, bound for Bridgeport. They had a-RYveet time,.hilling and cooing in proper style* until the train reached tho junction.— While Yvaiting there, the groom took a stroll on tho platform, and the bride also improved the time to Yvalk to the forward end of the ear. As the train started, Rhe returned, and seeing her husband, as she. supposed, sjio popped into the same scat, and lovingly rested her head ou his shoul der, Yvhile the cars' passed through the cov ered bridge. Unfortunately she had mis taken her man, and as tlo cars emerged from tho- bridge a trembling voice Yvhls- pered in her ear that ho didn’t quite com prehend tho situation. Looking up tlio bride found an unknoYvn Jjlushing youth, Yvhile her liege lord Yvas standing in the aisle, Yvitli a look of blank astonishment, on his face, not knoYving Yvhat to make of “such conduct as those. ” The error Yvas corrected at once, but the fun Yvas too much for tho ’occupants of the car, and every slccY'e contained an enormous though quiet laugh. Night Air not Injurious. Therots a popular prejudice concerning the evil effects of night air, about Yvhich a. Yvord must be said. jLn her admirable Yvritings on hygiene and tho management of the sick, Miss. Nightingalo has dono much to correct this mistake. It Yvas for merly tho universal belief that the air of night was very injurious. But the fact is that, except under certain circumstances, it is as healthful, or even more so, than that of tho day time. Tho night air of 1 r>oilinu®ui*u>)i no T.nnflnn whn.n Hip. largo cities,* such as London, Yvhen the bustle and commotion Yvhich causes it to bo loaded Yvlth dust particles, is compara tively quelled,and the numerous fires Yvhich contaminate it Yvitli their smoke are almost extinguished, is purer than that of the day. Nothing conduces moro to healthy sleep than good Y’entilatlon, and no mode of ventilation surpasses that obtained lr* opening a YvindoYv at tho, top. by Yvhich the influence of drought is avoldod, Yvhile the upper strata of air, to Yvhich impurities ascend, aro constantly rcneYved. But there is still another reason for adopting night even in .preference to day ventilation. In sultry weather it is a common mistake to open tho YvindoYvs instead of keeping them altogether closed, ns is tho ease in very hot climates. But, a llttlo reflection Yvill sIioyv that since the hightof the thermometer in tlio sun greatly exceeds that shown at tho saTrre4illi£hy another thermometer in the shade, hyopiritl^Ufl7md7nvs YVeHtfimF much heated air into our.room. Tho prop er time under such circumstances for ven tilation is dut'lilg the night, Yvhen the ex ternal atmosphere Is cooled down.

Whether it is desirable to cultivate many or feYV varieties of Yvheat at the same time on a farril may he regarded differently hy different persons. We think threo or four varieties sufficient, as rendering partial success more cortain and total failure less probable. Tho productiveness of any one variety of Yvheat differs from year to year, OYviug to different conditions of climate, season nnd soil,- during the active period of the plant’s groYvth, and YV'lnle one vnri cty fails another may succeed* Thu?In very-dry season the long straYV varieties are tho most productive, Yvhile in a YY’et season; the plant growing very luxurious ly, the shorter varieties succeed best. By. reason of theso irregularities it is both pru dent and necessary to success to cultivate several varieties at tho same time on farm. Every farmer should ascertain hy experiment for himself Yvhnt varieties are best suited to his particular soils and cir cumstances. But a blind preference for nuykind.of Yvheat, because it has been successfully cultivated for a long tlmo in one’s neighborhood, Yvithout testin; Yvorth Yvitli other varieties, is to be depre cated and condemned as much as constant shifting year after year from one noYV kind to another, in the vain hope of finding a variety that Yvill cast all others in tho shade. eorffla flflll*, The CoinniUU clmmtl Textile I oil n p.’lzc of I Manufticturlng C Of thirty-six Inch i Tlioy nlso luvimled t dollars to tlio Eagle a lecturing Company for tl blankets,'‘nnd to tho F ’ ny, of Columbus, for tl tweeds.
