Old farmer Brown came into the house, And wrathfully slammed the door; And flopped himself down inloachaii, And flopped his hat on the floor. For, farmer Brown was dreadfully wroth, ./lud his dander it was up; And lie looked around with an angry scrowl, And wrathfully kicked tbe pup. “ I’m tired from head to foot,” he said; “ And hungry as I kin be; I’d like to have a mouthful to cat— Is dinner most ready ? ” said he. The farmer's wife, she was pale and thin, And hungry and wan was she; And her eye was dim and her step was slow, And her dress was a sight to see. “Your dinner is ready,” she meekly said, “ And the dodgers arc smoking hot. Hut I’ve scraped the meal all out of the box, ' And the last jint's just from the pot.” “The mischief you have!” said funn er Hrown, Heaving a doleful sigh, Thar’s plenty of bacon and corn in town And I’ve no money to buy.” Up npoke tlie former’s daughter, Wa rier— And she hadn’t spoke before;— “Thar’s cotton out uuder tlie shed, 1 said sl<c, “ Some dozen bales or more.” “Cotton, the devil!” said farmer Hrown, (It’s dreadfully wrong to swear.) “ My cotton’s all mortgaged for last year's work, With never a bale to spare.” “ Well, then,” his daughter upspoke again, “ If that won't do for feed; You’ve two or three wagon loads more Of Dickson’s Prolilic Seed.” “Do you think me a bcastV” said farmer Hrown, I’m neither cow nor steer; Aud what if I was? I’ve hardly cnougli Of seed to plant this year.” Then said his daughter Maricr, again, “ ’1 liar's guano, lots,” she raid, “Thar’s twenty sacks full into the barn, And barrels under the shed.” “Guano? oh, Lud1” said larmcr Hrown, “ I need all the precious stuff To put on my cotton land this vear, Aud then not have enough.” But when the larmcr had eaten his fill, lie fell into thought profound. And smoked his tobacco, which cost at least Some ninety cents per pound. And then he muttered—“Thar’s some thing wrong About my farming, I swear! 'c don’t have even enough to cat, Not half enough to wear! My mules are starving almost to death, My cows are dreadfully thin; Thar's hardly a car ot corn iu the crib; And narry oat in the biu!

His father was an eminent mu sician; and Mozart was esteemed prodigy at the age of six years; and before he was 15 had produced tlie grand opera Mitliriad&tes, which had on its first writing a run of 28 success ive nights at the Emperor’s Imperial Opera”. He died in 17‘J2, under tlie following remarkable circumstances: Mozart, tbe great author, had labor ed long upon the words and music of the following lines, //e completed the production one morning came down from his room and gave it to hi* daughter, asking her to sit down to the piano and play and sing ii for him while he rested on the sofa. She complied, and performed the piece * feelingly, When she artistically and had concluded, she asked her father if he was pleased with it. He appear ed to be sleeping.

Ark.,) August 13, 1873. > Editors Times :—After having been pent up here betweeit these two moun tains for two months with nothing rec ommended for me to drink but this red hot water, it was through the ad vice of my physician, who thought it best, that I should make a change for a while, a week or ten days, advised me to visit Mountain Valley Springs, which is only twelve miles North of this place, and there being a regular hack line from here to Mountain Val ley Springs the visitors are pnt to very little trouble in finding conveyance.— All that is required to insure a seat is to see one of the managers of the line the evening before you wish to go and to have yourself in readines by 7 a. u, next morning, and they will have the liackman to call at any part of the Valley for you. Our party consisted —the day I went out—of myself three other'gentlemen and the driver; and to the latter wc looked too to carry us sately through, which ho did, after we having had many jerks and bumps from the hack in Us uudulating course. route lay along the valleys w ith now and then a short but steep ledge of some of the numerous mountains to cross over, and at other times we w’ould be on the side of some huge hill, going at the rate of 2 forty with many jolts, and jostles, from the numerous stoucs that in many places covered the road bed. Yet despite our ups aud downs our little party seemed to enjoy the trip, and most especially, one o*f our party an old gentleman from the State of T , who kept tho ballance of the party busy in answering his many questions. Five minutes being long enough for him to get acquainted with any one, and I presume that if one had remained witli our old traveler long, that he would have been familiar with his history from boyhood up. The first thing that attracted our at tention, outside of the beautiful land scapes, mountains, valleys and spark ling brooks, was tlie big ChalvDcatc Spring, of which I gave your readers a short description in my former letter. This being a stopping place for comers aud goers, we were allowed to rest here a few moments, and, white looking around wc found that this Spring makes its rise on th? East side of a small creek the waters of which arc conducted across tho creek by means of a hollow gum, and from it« appearance must have been cut and placed thero many years ago. This Spring is admired by all who chance to sec it. Aud besides, its great min eral properties, aud its large volume of water that is continually flowing from it, the surroundings are pictur esque aud grand, aud is much resorted to by pleasure seekers and invalids when taking a ride out, and as they usually drive in this direction they make it n point to stop aud take u drink of this cool aud sparkling water, and admire tho surrounding scenery. And we learn that in ante-bellum day just on tho top a little knoll, a fei paces off, stood a nice hotel which has cither fallen iuio ruins or been burnt, nothing left to mark the place, save two chimneys that arc still standing. After having refreshed ourselves here with a cool drink which was handed by our ever attentive driver, after which he cracked his whip and off we sped in the direction of Mountain Valley Spring. In passing on our way we came to many romantic spots, with here and there, the cottage of a mountaineer, perched upon the side of the hills, among the rocks be neath tho umbrageous white oaks, which seem to have out-stripped all the other growth, both on the hillside and in tho valleys, which in its season affords au akuudaut crop for the mountaineer’s hogs. In the valleys many of which are very fertile, we find small patches of eoru, peas, potatoes, oats, tobacco, cot ton, vegetables, etc., besides fruit trees, pcacltcs, apples and pears, arc grown and mature finely here. In many plaees near these farm houses and even in the yards we find the wild gr»i>e and muscadine laden with fruit, spreading its leafy brandies on tho top of some small tree which knew not the hand of man in its early training. Wc must not fail to mention that in one or two instances along our route in these fertile valleys, we no ticed some very line corn growing, al though it had been somewhat injured by the drought, yet it was thought to he good lor oO or t*0 bushels per acre, and, we were iuformed by a gentle- who lived here anti knew the country, that the lands in many places in these valleys would produce 75 bushels of corn per acre, when the seasons arc good. We noticed that Use corn was left two stalks to a hill and not more than 2 1-2 to 3 feet apart in the drill. But I learn that these fertile valleys are not very tensive. With all our ups and do going out to Mountain Valley Springs wc must confess that wc enjoyed the trip, the cool and balmy mountain breezes together with the varied and imposing scenery and the numerous blight and spaikling streams, with their crystal like waters winding their way over their rocky beds at the foot of these mountains and hills, overhun with the natural growth which ii many places has woven rich garlands of rare and pretty flowers. After a drive of three and a half hours we arrived with whole honest at Moun tain Valley Springs. Af»* r a ’ or y loll, dinner was announced, and on en tering the dining room we found the ta bles spread with many good things,and one would suppose to have been pre thick in a trough thatls need to convey the water to the bath houses. - There is but very little of this sediment that forms immediately where the spring rises. But U is found to form in the trouj hs soon after it leaves the spring which we suppose is caused by the ac tion of the air in some way upon the water; this sediment is formed very rapidly so much so as to render it necessary for the troughs to be cleaned out every few days which if net attended to io due time would impede the progress of the water in its downward course. The waters of these springs are said to cure or to prove beneficial for the following line of diseases: Dyspepsia, Chronic Diar- rhee, Paralysis, Gravel, General De bility, Torpidity of the liver, c.nd for all kidney and urinary organs, Drop- r, Pyles, Sore eyes, lnflamato*y heumatism, and also chronic chills. For the latter disease tho waters are said to be a specific; and the Pro prietor has gone so fax as to say that for every case of chills that these wa ters fail to cure in three days that he will make no charge for a months board. They must surely be a dead shot for the latter disease or the pro prietor would not be so liberal in his oilers. We are sorry that we cannot give the analysis of this water as wo find on inquiry of the Proprietor that tlie waters had never been analyzed. They are, however, said to be strongly im pregnated with Iron potassium, sul phur, arsenic, soda, etc. The larg< spring is said to carry off 1500 gullouo of water every hour; it is called the Soda Spring, and with its waters there arises a limpid, inodorous oil, which is very perceptible early in tlie morn ing and can be skimmed from the sur face, and when drank \o a very limited extent, acts as a certain, ,*et harmless catharthic. In the ittlc stream just where all of these diflereut waters unite are found laigo quantities of a kind of porous rock ot an oval shape from the size of a buck shot to six or eight inches in diameter, which is formed from the deposits of these waters. Wc learn thac this deposit was often obtain and crushed or ground to a powder during tlie war and used for a substitute lor yeast powders. To satisfy our curiosity wc pounded a small quantity which proved to us there was considerable soda in it from the effervescence that took place when it was brought in contact with an acid. These Springs and the lands that surround them was formerly owned by Mr. Lockett, who did not go to any trouble in fitting them up any war. But for two or three decade of years hack they were resorted to by invalids who came here in wagons and camped out for nceks at a time aud drank the waters. Mr. Peter E. Green coming in pos session of them eighteen mouths a«« lias not only changed their name, (ti they were forweriv called Locket Springs, but now Mountain Valley ■prings,) but has put up many kuild- ags, among which is a large hotel 250 feet long with wide verandas in front, which not only adds much to its comforts, but greatly to its beauty.— The rooms arc large and airy With good soft matresscs, and clean linen, aud the nights being rather cool there was nothing to disturb our quiet rest, save the meandering cry of the tree- toad, or locust that inhabited the tall white oaks that stood near the build- After spending a week with our obliging host we again returned to Hot Springs, where with fleas and amiders we feci more at home. Knowing that short letters arc more apt to be read than long ones wc will close.

He supnosed that Mrs. Pendexter would call him back and accede to his terms, but he was mistaken in the bux- urn widow’s mental calibre. She was turning indoors again, when to her suprise, she found herself confronting Mr. Ferdinand Allaire in his shirt sleeves. m your man, ma’am!” said he, nibbing his white palms briskly to gether. “My goodness gracious ejaculated the widow, “what do you mean, Mr. AllniroV” A Job of Wood Sawing. “Fts.no joking matter, Mr. Allaire,” said Jemima Pendexter. ‘Ofcourse it isn’t Jemima,* 1 said Mr. Allaite, rather more soberly, than he had spoken before. “But ’if jou come to that, isn't it deal jollier, aud just as cheap to laugh as to cry?” Miss Jemima Pendexter was a tall blooming brunette, with dark brown eyes, hair satin black, and a good healthy bloom on either check, *nd her green gingham dress fitted her perfectly as if a Broadway modiste had cut and-made it. Ferdinand Allaire was a handsome young tellow of some five or six and twenty, whose dark sparkliug eyes sent out rqguish gleams from beneath a pair ol arched brows, teeth were as white as a fresh cut slice of cocoanut. “But mother wants tho money,” per- do, Jcmi- sisted Miss Pendexter. “Not half so badly ran.” “It's too bad,” pouted Jemima. “So it is.

Miss Jemima came aud looked out of the window, her eyes shiuing mer ry encouragement, and her mischcvi- ous mouth framing itself iuto dimples. Miss Laviauia Jones, the elderly mai den lady who occupied tho back par lor, pursed up her lips, aud wondered ‘what ridiculous freak that madcap of Mr. Allaire would be up to next?* Young Jcssetny of the Occidental Club uearly got run over, stairing back in amazement at seeing Ferdinand at work; and Miss Addclc Maurice, with wlioni he had led the Gennas, three nights before—for our hero was what wasc&ilcd a ‘society young man’— stared with all her eyesjaud like the Priest and Levite in the parable pass- HAN8ELL & MANSELL, Fire Insurance Agts.

And then he stopped, in ainazeinctit. It was Mr. Laurence Allaire, the very grim old untie who had refused to countenance the unreasonable nephew who presumed to prefer lilcraturo and the belles-lettres to a seat in tho bank ing house of Allaire Sc Algrovc. “Now I’m done past all redemption, groaned Mr. Ferdinand to himself— “Uncle Laurence was quite augi encugh with mo before, but now he .. have a text to preach a sermon that will last him the rest of his life. The prodigal eating husks—the Isrcalites making bricks in a land of captivity. ‘I told you so, and it serves the y ROHIR'-f'r.TCf' rinlif * Nntv u<l,nt scape grace right.’ Now what evil genius sent my uuclc Laurence down this street just now, of nil times in the world? IIo cut me out of his will tiirec months ago, now he will add a special clause of obloquy and di|gr ace. Well 1 can’t help it?” Old Mr. Allaire had opened his keen blue eyes very wide at the unwonted sight of his aristocrutic nephew split ting wood, but it had not produced ex actly the effect upon him which Fcrdi- naud so darkly prophesied. He sat up as straight as ever in hts carriagi gravely meditating, “Stokes said he to his coacli-mau. “SirV” said .Stokes. “Drive to Mr. Fennawinks.” “Yes sir” said Stokes. “Didn't kuow the boy had so much pluck in him,” said Mr. Laurence All aire to himself, stroking his frost-white mustache. “The only relative I've got in the world, after alt: tio use in mak ing an obstluate old ‘stag^unclc’ of myself, Fennawinks.” “Yes sir,” said the lawyer, from his leather-covered chair, as Mr. Allaire walked into astuffy little cilice smelling of law books and stale cigar smoke. “I want my will restored to its orig- under the grate.” “That - * nousenae'. 'said Miss Fen- dexter. “01 course it is. Sense is at a dis count just at present. Look at that pile of mautiscript, if you don’t believe me that no editor will buy; see those elegant oil painting that Dc Baudin declines respectfully to han" up for sale!

Xo»r is the ac cepted time for old men like you and me, Fennawink*.” Exactly so!” said Mr. Fenna winks. So Mr. Ferdinand haa been reformed?” “Welt—no—I can’t say that exact ly,” said the old banker stiffly. “Hut Spirit! thy labor is o’er; Thy work of probation is done; Thy steps are now bound for the un trodden shore, And tbe race ol immortal began!

After dinner was over our kind host took us around to the Springs which arc only a few paces from the hotel, ono-largc spring and two small ones, near by, constitute the group. They rise South and near the foot of Blake ly Mountain. The largest spring U nicely walled up and cemented on the sides with a neat airy house over it, with comfortable seals around for vis itors and Invalids to sit on while they eqjoy a drink of tbe cool water which is continually rising from beneath its rocky bo«otn. Judging from the rust-like sediment that gathers on tbe boards and planks wherever ex posed or covered with water we are lorced to believe that ii is very strong ly impregnated *tth iron, and besides this sediment We find a long green P}0M like sediment that gathers very your honest debts 1 “I know that, my dear,” said Mr. Allaire gravely. “And I’ve written at least seven earnestly entreating let ters to my hard-hearted old uncle, and of the seven answers that ought to to have come back, the ouc hadn’t made h® appearance. Jemima, I’ve an idea!” “Fshaw!” said Miss Pendexter, try- ig in vain to maintain the severe gravity of aspect that was rapidly thawing beneath the merry sparkle of ihe sloebfuck eyes. “But I liavc really. Suppose you take me in part payment or my bill to Mrs. Pendexter. 1 believe I have the elements of a first rate husband about me.” Miss Jemima turned resolutely away. “Mr. AUaiie, I believe you’d joke if you were upon your dying bed. And she went down stain. “A man might do worse than marry Jemima Penaextcz.” said Mr. Allaire meditatively. She's pretty, and she's spirited, and as for her mother keep ing a boarding house, that's no partic ular objection in xnv eyes.
