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.” Frem the Southern Cultivator, for October. 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?'
