oar own by loving care. He can hardly
remember his father; and his mother now
is a fair young girl, who loved and tended
him—loved in sorrow and in sickness; for
that I love her—”
‘‘For that YOU LOVE her !” repeated
the old man, looking down upon the
weeping face that was upturned to him —
‘for that /”
“Oh yes, dear father. Let her be to me
a sister —let her know you as you really
are! Now that the cause of all your
seeming coldness is in the silent grave,
forgive him ; and to his child—oh, be to
him what you have been to me!” She
sobbed bitterly. “His father,” .continued
this unchanging woman, “is dearer to me
in his lone, foreign grave than all the
world besides, save only you ; it is uo sin
to say it now.”
“Alice,” said Mr. {Stanley, his coldness,
his pride, his very hatred of his nephew
yielding to an influence so new and so
powerful, “do you remember clearly and
distinctly all the past? Do you remem
ber that Edward {Stanley said that he
loathed your very name ? that he would
go to his grave by Jiis own hand rather
than take yours in marriage?”
“Yes,” she answered, “I remember it
well; it was burnt into my heart and
brain. His proud and restless mind would
not be commanded either by his father or
his uncle; he would not yield to interest ;
for that at least I honoured him : but,”
she added, in a trembling voice “it would
not have been so had he not loved else
where. I can understand what it is to
have a marriage forced upon one whose
heart and soul are giveu to another; and
upon one with such proud, hot blood as
{Stanley'srushing through his veins! it
was hard for me to bear, but it was natural
for him to feel, it is now a story of the
past, a lesson in life, a dream, whose
strongest features can never be forgotton.”
“And were you not jealous and indig
nant ?” inquired her father, for the first
time questioning her upon the subject.
“He did not know I loved him,” she re
plied. “And few men, I believe, under
stand either the height or the depth of
woman's love, shut up, as it is, as the
world and the world's Maker ordain that
it should be, in their seared and silent
hearts. I do not think I was jealous of
his wife. She was a bright, triumphant
beauty. Long, Jong before she died, I
mingled her name with his in my prayers.”
“And if she had lived, and been the
mother of this boy you plead for, could you
have entreated for her as you do now ’ for
her successor ?” persisted Mr. Stanley.
“I would!” answered his daughter. “I
should have done so then, perhaps, with
some pain ; but now I love them both.—
May they not come, father? Will you
not receive the boy ? lie has never—
never angered you!”
The old man raised her to his bosom;
and then, holding her from him, gazed
into her face. “I will ask her no more
questions,” he thought; “it is useless!—
1 will not remind her that, if I loved this
boy, it might lessen her inheritance. No
common interests have power over her.”
“My noble, faithful child,” he said aloud,
“I bless God that I have known you at
last. Do as it seems best to you. * Briug
the boy here. When you have forgiven, I
ought. It is very, very strange, and hard
—hard to understand a woman's love!”
The child and his mother have been
now nearly three years at Stanley Plea
saunce; and Alice, dear Alice {Stanley,
looks younger and happier than she did
for the last twenty years of her life. The
old gentleman's figure and deportment
are as stately as ever. But his mind is
failing, or changed—very much changed
—or you could hardly fancy him watching
with so much interest his‘little nephew's
gambols; pushing his ball along with the
end of his stately, gold-headed cane, or
twisting the long curls of fair Saxon hair
round his white but attenuated fingers;
while the old housekeeper hobbles up and
down after the young gentleman, lest the
sun should be too hot or the wind too
cold, muttering “It's all along of Miss
Stanley, it's all her doings. I always said
there never was any one like her.”

Tho Cattle Plague.
Editors Southern Cultivator :■ —There is
in the Maryland Farmer, September No.,
page 275, an article headed the Cattle
Plague. The writer seems to understand
the disease, but not the remedy. I think
you could not do a greater service to your
readers, than to publish the article, and the
certain cure I will give below —one that I
have practiced with entire success for the
last twenty years. From the condition of
the cattle I see, in traveling over the coun
try, I think but few know of the remedy.
My opinion is, that the disease is produced
by bad pastures, and running too long on
the same pasture. G etting low in flesh and
unhealthy, they are attacked by shingle
ticks, and in this condition, are neither fit
for beef or milk ; will weigh on an average
at least one hundred pounds less than
healthy cattle—many will die in the fall,
and many more during the winter. Many
years ago I spent one summer in Kentucky,
and in the rich lime land, I did not
tick —in the knob and mountain part there
was any quantity of them.
The remedy will cause a perfect cure, or
prevent the disease, (which is better,) at an
expense of not more than 2 to 4 cents per
head.
It is a certain remedy—be sure to try it.
Keep the cattle from salt from ten to fifteen
days, then take 2 parts salt and one part
ground sulphur, mix well and give your
cattle all they will eat for four days in suc
cession, until you get their blood well
charged with it. In fifteen days repeat,
and you will never fail to clean the last tick
off. One hundred pounds of sulphur at a
cost of nine dollars per 100 pounds, will do
per annum for two to three hundred head
of cattle; and for every dollar spent for
sulphur, you will get an increase of fifty in
beef, and that too of much better quality.
Respectfully, David Dickson!
Sparta , Ga , Aug. 4, 1808.
We publish below the article referred to
by Mr. Dickson:—
The Cattle Plague—An old Texffi,
writing to the Chicago Times, gives fie
following hints in connection with the ti k
theory:
u First, ticks do not come from the wo
r.or from the grass —so jar as appear an ?s
are concerned —but originate from sone
peculiar condition of the animal.
“ I have been daily among cows ad
calve-; fora dozen years or more, and ha e
never seen one of the cattle ticks detachld
from the animal, unless forcibly pulled of.
Fat, healthy cattle and horses have very fqv
or none. Poor, sickly animals always haf'
them in abundance. Milch cows generalk
have their bodies more or less covered wifi
them. The first appearance of the tick, s
a very minute insect—not moving abot,
but fastened to the hide, and thickly eo -
ering some portions of the animal's bod};
and there they remain until, having grown
large, they are rubbed off, or picked off by
birds or fowls. Some old stock’ raisers insilt
that they originate in the blood ; and J hade
heard it affirmed by horse raisers that colls
are born sometimes, literally covered with
ticks.
“ Now, with these facts as hints, perhaps
those investigating the matter may better
understand the nature of the plague ’’
The Times remarks editorially :
‘•A cure for a disease does not aiwa)s
hinge upon an intimate and complete know
ledge of its nature and causes; but in this
case, it would seem as if it must do so. No
one claims to know of any cure, nor does
anybody attempt any. A single animal, or
an entire herd, ever attacked, is considered
lost. The people accept the disease as a
fatal one, and act accordingly, or, rather fail
to act —accordingly. One or two papers
have urged that green corn fed to a diseased
animal, was beneficial; but there is no per
son to claim that it has effected a cure. In
the one or two cases—those of young calves
in which recovery is Said to have occurred,
the fact that there was a heavy rain at the
time, and that the calves stood knee deep
in water, was alleged in explanation ; but
no one had seen fit to experiment in the
same way with other cattle?'
