and seasons have been favorable, tbe
voung plants are up and growing. The
planter is now called upon in the use of
a new set of plantation tools or imple
ments, to operate for the prosperous and
continued growth of his crops, by the
removal first of ail grass and wild weeds,
which, by out-feeding the young plants
of course grow up aud monopolize the
soil. Nevertheless, however important
it be to remove and kill the grass weeds,
it is also necessary to stir and pulverize
the surface soil, that the warm rays of
the suu and the atmosphere may have
free access to the roots of the plant—
thereby securing the proper warmth of
soil, and with it the necessary chemical
changes in its fertility, in which condi
tion ot soil and fertility the feeders or ,n 2'
rootlets are supplied with their proper
food, and the health aud rapid growth
of the plant promoted.
While there is no one iu!e or mode
of operation that will apply equally well
in all localities, there is, nevertheless
u> ., e gi ea t nriuciple that must be observ
ed throughout rt? entire operation of
cultivating ilie growing " r °P> 111 o^ler
to secure the sure and greatest produc
tion, under the circumstances of seasons,
&c: That universal principle is, to avoid
as much as possible, in the cultivation
of the crop, the cutting or wounding
the roots of the growing corn or cotton
—producing at M.e same time the most
perfect pulverization of the surface soil.
To eveiy man admitting the principle,
the indications are plain and obvious—
and will suggest at once the proper im
plements with which to effect that ob
ject most successfully.
Corn.—We have before rtmatked, in
regard to working corn the first time,
that when the land is very hard and
compact from imperfect preparation,sub
sequent bard rains oi other cause, the
first plowing may be done with scooter
plows, close, thoroughly and deep while
the plant is yet young, aud before the
lateral roots have spread out from the
immediate vicinity of the stalk. This
can be done without injury to the
land or teams, as the sun has uot yet
become oppressively warm ; it is also a
valuable means of perfecting or deepen
ing the pulverizatioun of the soil, com
menced in the preparation of the land
for planting. This work properly done,
not only destroys all grass a»d weeds
that may be at the time standing with
the young corn, but it leaves the soil
once more loosened up deeply, in a light
and friable condition, into which the
young and growing corn, thinned out to
a stand, sends out its roots in all direc- j nto t jj e fi nestl kind of hay, which is
If you
desire your cotton to set its young bolls
and bear full of fruit, preserve scrupu
lously in all your subsequent work, af
ter the plant is up, the bed unbroken.—
Mark this! The first work ther. is to
scrape, instead of bar down your beds.
The Mississippi scraper is said to be a
fiue implement for tbis work—we have
not tried one. We rely mainly on the
hoe, though we have used for the last
few vears a very good instrument made
by Ruggles, Nourse & Mason, of Boston,
which does the work very well, and pre
serves the bed unbroken. The prolific
source of all the difficulty in making
cotton, is this constantly plowing down
and bedding up your cotton ridges after
the cotton plant has commenced grow-
And we again reiterate the fact,
that though the boll-worm may destroy
bis thousands or millions if you please,
the plow-share destroys its tens of mill
ions! Iu all your work then, pulverize
the surface and preserve, at the peril of
great loss, your beds unbroken
Peas.—Towards the close of this
month, peas should be planted. The best
and surest plan for a crop on rich or im
proving land, is to sow them broadcast,
at the rate of a half bushel per acre, and
cover them by running twice in the row
with a harrow—we use invariably aside
harrow for this purpose. Do not neg
lect this crop under the apprehension
that “peas will kill hogs.” Our opin-
iou is, that many more die for the want
of them.
Potatoes.—Your potato crop will now
require your attention, nor should you
neglect its importance. The seasons are
usually favorable in May by a succession
of light showers, which favor the put
ting out of slips from the potato bed.—
As we have before frequently stated,
the potato crop iu the plantation States
as a geueral thing is greatly underrated,
and as a consequence, too much neglec
ted. Au acre of land containing suffi
cient soluble fertility to produce 25 to 30
bushels of corn, will, when properly pre
pared, produce a larger amount of good
wholesome animal food, in sweet pota
toes, than in auy crop we have tested.
Potatoes are equally good for man and
beast; and they are good and healthful
piepared in any and every way. Ihey
are now selling freely in our market
here every Hay and have been for months
past, at from 80c to $1 per bushel.—
Tbs is one of the vegetables that is good
in all its parts—roots and vines. The
vines in the green state are fine for pigs
and rnilcb cows, and late in the fall be

The bar and the pulpit have furnished
no small amount of admirable material
for the Drawer, but the medical gentle
men are very sparing of their favors.—
Probably the doctors rarely see anything
to laugh at. Let us have the other side
of the picture. The serious is the better
part of man. Laughter is but the flow
er of life; to be seriously cheerful and
cheerfully serious is the true way to live.
Now and then oue of the doctors
comes with a humorous reminiscence of
his profession, or a sketch of something
that has just happened, and which he
must tell or burst. - Listen :
One of my patients is a genuine hy
pochondriac. One of.his hallucinations
has been that Bonepart is seeking him
to take his life and that a detachment
of the Guard is around bis house, ready
to pitch into him if he stirs out. The
other day he sent for me in great haste.
I was soon in his chamber, and found
him writhing iu great agony. Be had
been eating a hearty dinner, and an at
tack of dyspepsia was on bun of the
worst kind.
‘Well, what’s the mafeler now, my dear
sir V I said ; ‘has Boneparte been here V
‘No ! oh no, Doctor ! a thousand times
worse! I’ve swallowed the twelve Apos
tles !’
‘Is it possible?’ I replied. ‘That is
dreadful to be sure, but not so bad as if
Boneparte and liis men had gone down,
for they carried fire-armsfl^md would
have blown you up in no time ! But the
Apostles had only spears! I suppose
you feel them prick occasionally ?’
‘Oh dear, yes ! There ! what an aw
ful lunge right there ! That’s Judas ; I
know it is! What a terrible fellow he
is!’
‘I’ll fix them ! I’ll bring them all up
in five minutes,’ said I. And preparing
a s rotig emetic, darkened the : o >rr, gave
him the dose, and as soon a9 it took ef
fect I struck my cane heavily on the
floor with every cascade, crying out with
each :‘There comes Peter ! there comes
Johu ! that’s Judas!’ till the round doz
en were all cast up; when I ordered
them all out of the room, and shut the
door. The patieut—exhausted, indeed,
but relieved—fell asleep, and awakened
with tbe full conviction that the Twelve
had departed.

tles again, unt’I he takes them as desert
after overfeeding,’—Harper.
A Good ’Un.
We heard the other day a capital an
ecdote of a wittv clergyman of this city,
who is said never to come off second

As one day he was passing down one
of the streets of a large village in this
State, where he was settled, he was ob
served by some waggish hangers on at
a public house which he was approach- j
inw. One of these fellows, knowing that
the reverend gentleman was a “hard
case” at a joke, said that Le would bet
the drinks for all hands that he could
head Mr. H .
“ Done, ” was the response from a
number.
As Mr. H came opposite the
merry group, the proposer of the bet call
ed to him. Mr. H halted and
drew near, whereupon the confident chap
thus addressed him:

of the Babylonian, Assyrian, Persies, Egyp
tian, Greek and Jewish nations, and closed
witb the following powerful and dramatic
description of tbe destruction of Jerusalem
by Titus;
Six years after the birth of oar Lord, Ju
dea and Samaria became a Roman province,
under subordinate governors, tbe most fa
mous of whom was Pontius Pilate. These
governors became so oppressive that the
Jews broke out into rebellion; and seventy
years after CUri9t, Jerusalem was finally
besieged by Titus, afterwards Emperor of
Rome. No tragedy on the stage has the
same scenes of appalling terror as are ta be
found in the history of this siege Tbe city
tself was rent by factions at tbe deadliest
war with each other—all the elements of
civil hatred had broke loose—the streets
were slippery with the bleed of citizens—
brother slew bn ther—the granaries were
set on fire—famine wasted those wfiom the
sword did not slay. Its tbe midst of these
civil massacres, the Roman armies appeared
before the walls of Jerusalem. Then for s
short time the rival factious united against
the common foe; they were again the gat-
ant countrymen of David and Joshua—they
sailed forth and scattered the eagles el Rome.
But this triumph was brief; the ferocity of
the ill-fated Jews soon again wasted itself
on each other. And Titus marched on—en
camped his armies close by the walls—and
from the heights the Roman general gated
with awe on the strength and splendor of
tbe city of Jehovah.
Let us here pause—and take, ourselves, •
mournful glance at Jerusalem, as It the*
was. The city was fortified by a triple wall,
save ou one side, where it was protested by
deep and impassible ravines These wall*,
of the most solid masonry, were guarded by
strong towers; opposite to tbe loftiest of
these towers Titus had encamped. Pram
the height of that tower tbe sentinel might
have Eeen stretched below the whole of that
fair Territory of Judea, about to pass from
the countrymen o David. Within these wall*
was the palace of the kings—its roof of ca-
dar, its doors of the rarest marbles, its
chambers filled with tbe costliest tapestries,
and Vessel* of gold and silver. Groves and
gardens gleaming with fountains, adorned
with statues of bronze, divided tbe eoarta
of the palace itself. But high above all
upon a precipitous rock, rose tbe temple,
fortified and adorned by Solomon. The tem
ple was as strong without as a citadel—
within more adorned than a palace. On
entering you beheld porticoes of nnmberleM
columns of porphyry, marble and alabaster;
gates adorned with gold and silver, amasf
which wits the wonderful gate called tha
Beautiful Further oa, through tbe vast
arch, was the sacred portal which admitted
into the inteiior of the temple itself all
sheeted over with gold and overhung by a
vine tree of gold, the branches of which
were ns large &s a man. The roof of tha
temple, even on the outside, was set over
with golden spikes, to prevent tbe birds
settling there und defiling the holy dome.—
At a distance, the whole temple looked like
a mount of enow, fretted with golden pinna
cle*. But, alas, the veil of that temple had
been already rent asunder by an inexpiable
crime, and the Lord of Hosts did not fight
with lx r ncl. But the enemy is thundering at
the wall Ail around tbe city arose immense
machines, frem wbieb Titos poured down
mighty fragments of rock, and showers of
fire The walls gave way—the city wes en-
tered—the temple itself was stormed. Fsm-

gtiH, as if the foe and the fainiue was not
scourge enoagb, citizens smote and murder-
e<l each other as they went iu the way-
false prophets went howling through tho
streets--every image of despair completes
the ghastly picture of the fail of Jerusalem.
And now tbe temple was set on fire, tha
Jews rushing through the flames to perish
amidst its ruins. It was a calm summer
night—tbe 10th of August; the whole hill
ou which stood the temple was oue gigantic
blaze of fire—the roofs of cedar crashed—
the golden pinnacles of the dome were like
spikes of crimson flame. Through tha lurid
atmosphere all was carnage and slaughter ;
tbe echoes of shrieks aud yells rang back
from the Hill of Zion and tha Mount of Ol-
ivea. Amongst tha smoking rains, and over
piles of tha dead, Titus planted tha standard
of Roma. Thao warn fulfilled tbe last aveng
ing prophecies—thus perished Jerusalem —
