POETRY. People irill Talk. Tou may get through the world, but t’will be very slow, If we listen to all that is said as we go; We’ll be worried and fretted, and kept in a stew, For meddlesome tongues will have something to do, For people will talk. If quiet and modest, you’ll have it presumed That your humble position is only assumed; You’re a sheep in wolf’s clothing, or else you’re a fool; But don’t get excited, keep perfectly cool, For people will talk. If generous and noble, they’ll vent out their spleen, You’ll hear some loud hints that you’re selfish and mean; If upright and honest, and fair as the day, They’ll call you a rogue in a sly sneaking way, For people will talk. Andtlien if you show the least boldness of heart ; , *• Or a slight Inclination tcytake your own part, They will call you an ‘Upstart, conceited and vain; But keep straight ahead, don’t stop to explain, For people will talk. If threadbare your dress, or old-fashioned your hat, Borne one will surely take notice of that, And hint rather strong that you can’t pay your way; But don’t get excited whatever they say, For people will talk. If you dress in the fashion don’t think to escape Fdr they criticise then in a different shape; You’re ahead of your means, or your taylor’s unpaid; But mind your own business, there’s naught to be made, For people will talk. Now, the best way to do is to do as you please, For your mind if you have one will then be at ease; Os course you will meet with all sorts of abuse; But don’t think to stop them, it aint any use, For people wfll talk. HOME, FARM £ND GARDEN. Woolen Garments.—All woolen garments hanging in closets unused through the summer should be at least three or four times through the season thoroughly brushed and hung out of doors in the sun and wind. Sleigh-robes should be sealed up like the smaller and choicer furs, but in default of this protection should nev er be allowed to remain more than two weeks during the hot weather without receiving a shaking and air ing. To Cool Horses When Hot.— There is danger of congestion when cold water is thrown on the body of horses when very hot and tired; yet, how many do it ? The better way is to throw water freely on the fore legs of the animal. This corresponds with the well known custom of per sons when over-heated, bathing the wrists for some time before dringing much. • . Fresh Air for Sheep.—Sheep require abundance of fresh air, as in fact all stock do, but sheep especially. Close pens are very injurious* causing first running at thei nose and colds, which finally result in a cough and inflamation of the lungs. The great est need is to keep them dry under foot and protected from snow and rain storms; sheep will choose to lie out of doors in a well-littered yard rather than under cover, and thrive better in doing so. Fine French Mustard.—Take a quarter of a pound of the best, fine, yellow mustard; pour over it enough vinegar and water, equal parts of each, to make a very thin paste; add a pinch of salt, and a bit of calamus root not larger than a pea. Set it on the stove, and while it boils, stir in a tablespoonful of flour. Let it boil for twenty minutes, stirring it con tinually. Just before it is done stir in a small teaspoonful of honey.— When cool, put it in bottles and cork very tight. This is the recipe for the real French mustard for which a very high price is paid. Spiced Apples.—The best way to make spiced apples is to take eight pounds of apples, pared, four pounds of sugar, one quart of vinegar, one ounce stick cinnamon, half ounce of cloves. Boil the sugar, vinegar, and spices together, put in the apples when boiling and let them remain until tender—about twenty minutes. Take them out and put them in a jar. Boil down the syrup until thick, and pour it over. Manure.—Either draw manure out to the field as it is made, and it, or make it into a larg<^m^B| barnyard. , STJMOBOUS. •This is a good time to plant cate. The cat should be prepared with a bootjack, revolver, or some other utensil, and then plant under a plum •tree. If you have not got a plum tree, plant anywhere. Plant all you can, and plant deep. This branch of agriculture is too much neglected. An Eastern man locked his wife up in a room and sent his son to her with a bone. The youth said: ‘ ‘Mother, _ fa ther sent this up and says here is a bone for you to pick.” The gentle mother replied: “Take it back and tell him I say he is not your father, and that is a bone for him to pick.” A prominent journalist in New York, who is perfectly bald, has offered a reward for a tale that will make his hair stand on end. A gushing poet asks in the first line of a recent effusion, “How many weary pilgrims lie ?” We give it up, but experience-has told us that there are a good many. The city editor of the Jacksonville Journal . in writing an obituary of a “highly respectable citizen,” says: “He has gone to that undiscovered bum.” The sorrowing relations of the highly respectable are now looking for the end man. “Professor,” said a student in pur suit of knowledge concerning the habits of animals, “why does a cat, while eating, turn her head first one way and then the other?” “F°£ the reason,” replied the professor, that she cannot turn it both ways at once. James tParton says the first ques tion many women would ask were they sentenced to be hanged to-mor row wouli be, “Have Ia hanging dress ?” Ik Out in Wisconsin a few days since a gallant ybung man drew a pretty girl toward him and kissed her, and just at that moment a beam fell from the floor above to the spot where she was standing before. The story spread like wildfire and the “blooming las sies” throughout the State generally are now continually being snatched from imaginary dangers. The weather out west is not yet re garded as perfectly satisfactory. An irate joufnalist, who is also an agri culturist, remarks : “This is a fine time to set out flowers and have them frozen as stiff as an iceberg in an hour. In planting seeds put each one in a pill box and wrap the box up in cot on batting. In setting out onions put an overcoat on each onion and place a layer of hot bricks under the bed.” Onq of our manufacturing tobacco nists was out with a card, the other day, like this: Wanted —“Girls to strip in a tobacco factory.” Is he a wretch whom it were base flattery to call a cow-yard, or is it so hot in his place that‘the girls can’t work with their clothes on ? A shrewd little fellow was en trusted to the care of his uncle, who fed the boy very poorly. One day he happened to see a greyhound, where upon he asked the little fellow if he knew what made the dog so poor. The reply was: “I expect he lives with his uncle.” The Norwich Bulletin tells of an aged pilgrim who had looked on the log-wood when it was of various col ors. and walked into the Thames on Friday. On being rescued he ob served that he “wasn’t quite sure at first whether it was the river or the railroad, but he recognized it at once.” They couldn’t fool him on water. “Yer haven’t got such a thing as a pair of trousers, have yer ?’’ said an importunate beggar, looking in a counting house. “No, my man,” said the merchant, “I don’t keep my ward robe in my office.” “Where do yer live?” rejoined the tramp; “give us yer address and I’ll call in the morn ing for the old pair you’ve got on.” A Western editor says that fresh water has tasted strong of sinners ever since the deluge, and that’s why he flavors his. “Come where my love lies dream ing,” says an up-country swain, “and see how she looks with the paint off.” An.inebriated Democrat was dining at the Lanier House the other day. “Beef, pork, mutton, veal or chicken,” said the polite waiter. “I don’t care a d—n,” was the reply; “anything to beat Grant.” The figures in the absolutely latest style of Dolly Vardin are so delight fully large that it takes two young ladies to show them properly. They have to go arm in arm and keep step or else the effect is spoiled. Here are some exhilarating lines from a seasonable poet; “December’s come andnowthe breezes howl among the lifeless treeses; now the boy with ragged trowses shiv’ring homewurd Hkie cowses. His boots are old| [OFFICIAL.] LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES, PASSED AT THE SECOND SESSION OX THE FORTY-SECOND CON ' CRESS, [Genkaal nature—No. 48.] AN ACT to create the Linkton land district, in the State of Oregon.
