BY WILL M. CARI.ETON.
Draw up the papers, lawyer, and make
( ’em good and stout;
For things aie cross-ways, and Betsey and
I are out.
We'who have worked together so long as
man and wife,
Must pull in single harness the rest of our
■ nat’ral life.
‘•What is the matter ?” say you, I vow ! its
hard to tell.
Most of the years behind us we’ve passed
by very well ;
1 have no other woman—she has no other
man,
Only we’ve lived together as long as we
ever can.
So I’ve talked with Betsey, and Betsey has
talked with me,
And e’ve agreed together that we can’t
never agree ; ’
Not that we've cate!.ed each other in any
terrible crime,
We’ve been a gatherin’ this for years, a
little at a time.
Tliei e was a stock of temper we both had
for a start,
Although we ne’er suspected ’twould take
us two apart ;
X I had my various failings, bred in the flesh
and bone,
And Betsey, like all good women, had a
temper of her own.
The first thing I remember whereon we
disagreed,
Was somethin’ concerning Heaven—a
difference in our creed.
We arg’cd the thing at breakfast—we
arg’*d the thing at tea—
And the more we arg’ed the question, the
► more we didn’t agree.
And the next that T remember was when
we lost a cow,
Sp" i-:i the JeuoicAt— -.
— 1 tion wit: only—llow ?
I held my own opiuion, aud Betsey anoth
er lmd,
And when we were done a talkin’, we both
of us was mad.
And the next that I remember, it started
in a joke,
But full for a week it lasted, and neither
of as spoke.
And the next was when I scolded because
she broke a bowl,
And she said I was mean aud stingy and
hadn't any soul.
And so that bowl kept pouring dissensions
in our cup,
And so that blamed cow critter was always
a cornin’ up ;
And so that Heaven we arg'ed no nearer
to us got,
Cut it give us a taste of somethin’ .a thou
sand times as hot.
And so the thing kept workin', and all the
self-same way.
Always somethin’ to arg'e, and somethin'
sharp to say.
And down on us come the neighbors, a
couple o’ dozon strong,
And lent their kindest service for to help
the thing along.
And there has been days together—and
many a weary week—
We was both of us cross and spunky, and
both too proud to speak,
And I have been thinkiu' and flunkin' the
whole of the winter and fall,
If I can’t live kind with a woman, why,
then I won't at all.
And so I have talked with Betsey, and
Betsey has talked witli me,
And we’ve agreed together that we can’t
never agree ;
And what is hers shall be tiers, and what
is mine shall be mine.
And 1 11 put ii in the agreement, and take
it to her to sign.
Write on the paper, lawyer—the very first
paragraph—
Of ail the farm and live stock, that she
shall have her half;
For she has helped to earn it, through
many a dreary day,
And it’s nothing more than justice that
Betsey has her pay.
Give her the house and homestead ; a man
can thrive and roam,
But women are skeery critters, unless they
have a home.
And l have always detetmined, nnd never
failed to say, s
That Bet ey never should want a home, if
1 was taken away
There’s a little hard money that’s drawin’
tolerable pay :
A couple of hundred dollars laid by fora
jainy (lay •
Safe in the hands of good men, and easy to
get at ;
Putin another clause, there, and give her
half of that.
Yes, I see you sniils, sir, at my givin her
so much,
Yes divorce is cheap, sir, but I taka no
stock in such.
True and fair I married her, when she was
blithe and young,
Ann Betsey was always good to me except
in’ with her tongue.
Once, when I was young as ycu, and not
so smart, perhaps,
For me, she smittened a lawyer, and sev
eral other chape ;
Aud all of ’em was flustered and fairly
taken down,
And I for a time was counted the luckiest
man in town.
Once when I had a fevor—l won't forget
it soon—
I was hot as a basted turkey, and crazy as
a loon—
Never an hour went by when she was out
of sigh t;
She nursed me true and tender and stuck
to me day and night.
And if ever a house was tidy, and ever a
kitchen clean,
Her house and kitchen was as tidy as any
I ever seen ;
And I don’t complain of Betsey or any of
her acts,
Exceptin’ when we’ve quarrelled and told
each other facts.
So draw up the paper lawyer; and I’ll go
home to-night,
And read the agreement to her and see if
it’s all right.
And then in the mornin’ I’ll sell to a tra
din’ man I know—
And kiss the child that was left to us. and
out in the world I’ll go.
And one thing put in the paper, that first
to me didn’t occur—
That when I'm dead at last she shall bring
me back to her ;
And lay me under the maples I planted
years ago,
When she and I was happy, before we
quarrelled so.
‘ InW, : **’ that she would
And lyin’ together in silence, perhaps we
will agree;
And if ever we meet in Ileavca, I wouldn t
tlduk it queer
If we loved each other the bitter because
we quarrelled here.

Made Up.”
Ail Apt Sternum.
A lady corresponds of the Inde
pendent £ives a sketch of a sermon she
heard in Georgia nearly half* century
ago, froni'which we give an extract :
The preacher was apparently about
fifty years of ago. large, museular and
well proportioned. On entering the
pulpit ho took off his coat and hung it
on a nail behind hint; then opened hi*
collar’and wrislbauda, and wiped the
perspiration from his neck and hands.
He was clad in striped cotton homespun,
and his shirt was of the same material.
He had traveled several miles that
morning and seemed almost overeome
by the heat. But the brethren sung a
couple of hymn 9 while he was fanning
and cooling oflf, and when ho rose ho
looked more comfortable and good
natured.
He had preached there once or twice
before, but to most of the audienee he
was a stranger. Hence, he thought it
necessary to announce himself, which
he did, as ‘Old Club Ax Davis, from
Scrivan county, a hard and half soft
shell Baptist/
‘I have given myself that same,’ said
he, ‘because I believe the Lord has e-
Doted uie from all eternity, to go ahead
in ths back woods aod grub out a path
and blaze the way for other men to fol
low. After the thickest of it is-ett
away a good warm Methodiet brother
will come along and take tny trail, and
make things alittle smoother and a good
deal noisier. And after all the under
brush is cleared out, and the owls and
wolves are skeered back aod rattle
snakes are killed off, a Presbyterian
brother, in black broadcloth and white
cravat, will cry for decency and order.
And they’ll both do good in their
sphere. I don't despise a learnt man,
even when he don’t dress and think as
I do. You couldn’t pay me enough to
wear a broadcloth, snmuier nor winter,
and you couldn’t pay a Preebyterian
enough to go without it in dog days,
God didn't make U 9 all alike, my
brethern, but every man has his own
sphere. When God has a place to fill,
He makes a man aod put* him iu it.—
When He wanted General Jackson, He
made him and set him to fightin’ Injuns
and the English. When He wanted

Geo. Whittier, He made him to blow
the Gospel trumpet at no wan ever
blowed it; and when Ho wanted Old
Club Ax Davit, He mad# him and set
him to gnjbbin’ in thi backwoods
‘But uiy shell isn’t so hard but lean
see good points in everybody, and as
for the Presbyterians, they are a long
way ahead of us Baptists and Metho
dists in some things. They raise their
children better thin any peoplton the
face of tho earth. Only a few days
ago a Methodist class leader said to
me : ‘Brother Club Ax, I was bom a
Methodist, I was raised a Methodist
and by the grace of God I hope to die
a Methodist. But, thank God, I’ve
got a Presbyterian wif# to raise my
children.’ And I believe, my breth
ren, if the Lord should open tho way
to me to marry ajain, I’d try my Lest
to find a Presbyterian woman and run
my chances of breakin’ har in the sav
ing doctrines of feet washin’ and im
mersion afterwards.’
Just at this point he was interrupt
ed by two apotted hounds that had
been continually running up and down
the pulpit stairs. On# of them had
jumped upon the seat and began to
gnaw his ooat tail, in which was Some
thing he bad brought along for lunch.
He turned slowly around and took him
by tho cars and tail, and threw him
out of the wiudew behind him aa easi
ly as if it had been a young kitten
The other took warniig and got out as
rapidly as possible, though sot without
howling and yelping as it it had boon
half killed. Then he turned to the
audience and said, smilingly; ‘St. Paul
exhorted the brethren to ‘Beware of
dogs,’ I wonder what he would do il
he Wire in my place thia
vjm wgy, l 'n.9 T i/imu was.'
lie had scarcely commenced preach
ing again before there was a terrible
squealing and kicking among the mules
and huises that were tied to tho trees
close by. lie put bis head out of the
window and said: ‘No barm done, my
brethren. Just a creature with a side
saddle on has broken loose. Will some
brother head the animal for no sister
Cn walk boms this hot day 7’
Quiet being restored he continued :
‘Well, tny brethren, I will now try
to say what I allowed to about the
Presbyterians.
‘As I said before, they raise their
children a heap better than we do.—
They behave better in church and keep
Sunday better, and read the Bible and
learn the Catechism better thaa ours
do. I declare, my brethren, their a chil*
dren are learnt that Westminster
Catechism by the time they can begin
to talk plain.
‘lt ain’t thrje weeks since I was out
a cattle huntin’—for two of my yearlin’s
had strayed off—and I stopped at old
Brother Ilarkcy’s, on Mud creek, and
took dinner. lle’ a deacon in the
Presbyterian church over thar. Well,
as true as I stand here, brethren, Sister
Harkey bad her little gal a standing
right before her, with toes just even
with the crack o' the flo r, and her
hands was hanging down by her side
and her mouth turned up just liko a
chicken when it drinks, and she was a
putting this question to her out o’ that
catechism :
‘What are the benefits wbioh in this
life do either accompany or flow front
jurisdiction, adoption and sanctifica
tion ?’
‘Nov, the question itselfwas enough
to break the child down. But when
■he had to begin aod say that question
all over (for that’s the way it was in
ihs book) and then hitch the answer to
it, and which all put together made
this: ‘The benefits which in this life
do either accompany or flow from jur
isdiction, and sanctification are peace of
conscience, joy in the Holy Ghost, in
crease of grace and perseverance there*
io to the end’—l thought the child
was the greatest wonder I’d ever seen
in all my life. She tuk it right
through, too, without balking or miss
in<* the first. And she spoke so sweet
and she looked so like a little angel
that before I knowd it the tears was a
running down my cheeks as buckshot.
I’ve seen the day when I could have
mauled and split a thousan’ rails quick
er and easier thaD I could have larnt
that thing and said it off like she did,
‘Now, my brethren, that child didu t
understand or know the -;iing o’
one woid of that. It pi|t up to all
I know to take it in inyidf.dut just
lot that Presbyterian yoig grow up.
and every word of that will
come back to her andpeicharactcr
will stiffen up under iiai Siiu’U have
the backbon# of the ter in her for
life.
‘Now, I ean\ put tl s in tny chil
dren that way. Not ; don’t stay
anyhow. It’s like dii ; a nail into
a rotten log.’
Tliis last remark I isr forgot. For
thirty years afterward4ts I would
stand at the blackboarotrying to fix
rules and principle* irt<e mind of a
dull pupil, this reuii would como
tack to me with its irculiar perti

I hardly like the lo of this month,
viewed from the pr >at standpoint
(Sept.l 8) It “looks u y,” and smacks
of cold, bitter, biting old, north and
south, east and west, v h but sparsely
snow-covered ground i Northern New
York and Canada, *3 bare ground
west and south. The noth bids fair
to be cold and dry, ra er than other
wise, and this cold oia bo somewhat
proportionate to the 1 art of the past
summer, and extend t( extreme so uth
ern and western poi ts- The entry
of the month is likely i > bring in win-
ter abruptly in most* sections where
winter is usually expected and experi
eneced. Ts e first week of the month
will probably give the first good snow
falls of the season in Ne w York, Cuna-
and i and westward, witi. cunxidcxable
■weather will be experienced in south
ern localities. Suow-falls will agtuu oe-
cur about the middle of the month in
Canada and the Northern United
States, and during the last few days of
the month,again, sa far south sa Wash
ington .D. C. where it is paobable the
new’year will enter with fair sleighing
for a brief period. These snow falls,
however,are not likely to be as marked
aud severe as those of the past win’er;
but as I have already stated, the ‘‘cold
dips” look formidable in most section.
As December is an important one
of the winter months, and, lurther, is
one about which I am particularly care
ful (as a miss there is generally a miss
everywhere), I append the following
more detailed forecast of it for the
benefit of persons to whom the charac
ter of the closing month of the year is
of special interest:
A MORE DETAILED SKETCH.
December,lßßl. —1,2, 3. Storms or
indications of storms ia Atlanic, and
cold, blustery weather at New York,
Boaton and other seaboard cities; snow
falls in the Middle and Northern
States and Canada; very cold weather
Wost. Probably a brief mild term.
7 to 11. Generally very cold weather
probably commencing and ending with
snowfalls in Northern, Middle and
Western sections,and bleak and stormy
weather South.’•
13 and 14. Probably milder in all soc
tions, with rains South and W*st to a
limited extent.
15 to 20. Very cold and blustery pe
riod, with snowfalls whore these were
experienced in IS7G aod 1880, the
19th and 20th probably being the days
most marked in this respect; inteuso
cold in Canada and the New England
Staes.
25, Christmas has a cold and stormy
period, both before and after it, but
the day itself may just escape.
1G to 31. After the 2Gth see nothing
but cold, snow and bluster to the
close of the year for Canada and much
of the United States, west and south,
the month probably resembling, in
many rjspects, the December of 187 G
and 1880. As to the intensity or de
gree of thes* snowfalls, I have no very
definite indications, but am strongly
impressed in the direction of low tem
perature for the fore part of the ap
proaching winter season.
But January will have its “thaw”
this time, and probably a very marked
one.

It is said that while the plague
was raging in Buenos Ayres, the
gravediggers bore charmed lives
Of tho 300 men so employed not
one died of tho disease.
It has often been noticed that
during the prevalence of pestilen
tial diseases, physicians, under
takers, nurses and grave-diggers,
whose business compelled constant
liability to infection, have usually
escaped in a far greater ratio than
their numbers would warraut. The
•‘charm'’ from thi3 immunity from
the prevailing scourge is very
simple. They are not scareu.—
They are positivo to the disease,
and repel its attacks, tear is a
groat ully of death. V\ hoever is
afraid of disease is in a negative
condition, and reully invites its ap
proach.
Aud thus it is the world over.—
The brave die but once, while cow
ards’die many times.

in every community in regard to
many diseases. We are, it is true,
all liable to sickness nd death

and brave of heart, we need h o

Whatever hog medicine contains
a good proportion of charcoal is
presumptively a good medicine. It
may be possible for quackery to so
combine charcoal with other ingre
dients that the efficacy of_this re
medial agent will ho destroyed, but
it would,we believe, tako a regular
double barrelled quackery to de
stroy it under any circumstances
It it a most useful medicine by it
self, and worth more than any oth
er one ingredient that we ever put
into a medicino. It beuefits th.
hog system by absorbing the in
jurious gases within, and its ab
sorptive powers are so great that it
will absorb about eighty tines
more gas than iis own measure
ment. It is to this quality that it
owes its efficacy when given to
bloated animals, and nothing equal
to it was ever given or has e f ei
been discovered in such cases. Few
of our readers but are doubtless
aware bow niagnificiently it acts in
human complaints, and to such it
is recommended in diseases of do
mestic animals, and especially of
swine, with just as much cvtifh
denco of its being a success as when
given to human beingi. One
boauty about it, too, is that it can
do no harm, something that cannot
be said of many ol the nostrums
which ure recommended by avari
cious compounders of medicine for
animals. If it is given in too large
doses it simply acts as a cathartic,
and that is tbo of it.
It is one sign of a good farmer
if he prizes manure. It does not
require a good fanner to raise
bountiful crops on a farm already
rich, but the art lies in so manag
ing the farm that it will produce
good crops every year without los
ing its fertility. A man may
make money from his farm while
ho is wasteful, for he is constantly
running his land into debt. Good
farming consists of such manage
motit as w ill make tho farm produce
the best possible results without
deteriorating the son. This can
only be accomplished by a rigid'
economy in the making and using
of manure, and by such a syste
matic rotation of crops as will be
the lea*t exhaustive to the soil.
A farm can be stocked with shee p
cheaper than with any other ani
