It may do you Rood, though you have done them’ none. Nothing is so easy as to till a pas tor’s plan 1 until it is vacant. Churohos sometimes treat pastors as teamsters do fouee-ruils; prize out of the mud with them, drive over and leave them in. Brief pastorates are the rage ; long ones (Blake Satan rage. Which is bet ter in a fast age? Hone.* y is good policy ; but to pay ybut pteaeher and for your paper is j good principle. A trumpet in the pulpit is better than n organ in the gallery. Blessed the church that has bot h without dis cord. Scratch “itching eara,” and you may engage “year in and year out.” One black sheep disfigures the flock; one discord disturbs the har mony; and one stirrer of strife do-, ■stroys the church's peace. When presented with a turkey or a • milt, till tin self with one, cover with j the other, no not till the paper with thanks, nor cover thy friend with shame—lest thy writing grow long and thy presents less. With the new year begin anew life; the former will soon bo lost, the lat ter forever lost. Don’t Allow Talent to Hi st. Vs by- constant friction steel is kept highly polished, so by constant oxer-1 else is talent ever at its brightest. All Ur powers grow by use. If we neg lect to cultivate the habit of observa tion, we might as well walk through the world blindfolded. We lose our faculty what the artists call our fSHHMIk” - by neglect of practice on other tilings beside the piano. The man who seldom reads, reads slowly; the woman whose writing is confined to an infrequent, letterto some absent child,spends more time over that than does a practiced writer over a half dozen pages of manuscript. Kx erciso of possessed talent, is absolute ly woessai v. then, if we would retain our gifts. For example, if our occu pation is sedentary, we need plans for walks, rides, and active games, to keep our muscles lithe aud service able. But If our employment gives | us enotmh muscular action, it is not loss important to our health of body that we should plan t< >r mental exer-! else—for employment of enough of our memory and reasoning powers to keep them from rusting. And in either ease, that life must lie a dwarf ed and unhealthy one that does not | provide exercise 'for our spiritual fac ulties, for worship and charity at and patience and magnuninii: v. Kxerciso of soul, mind and body can alone bring us to it. How >ick Bowers wo* *an slit. Nick Bowers was a member of the origiuai Christy .Minstrels, and in his day was the greatest “middle man interrogator" known in the profes sion. .Nek used to tell, with great jnerrincnl, an Incident of his hoy- j hood.l To preserve lie flavor of the relation, we will record it in Nick's own language, and only regret, that we cannot accompany it with his in imitable gesticulations. “My old man,” said Nick, “as a general thing, was u pretty steady old gent, but. once in a while he would get oblivious, and water was not the couse of it. I recollect a certain hol iday was approaching, and I lmd ; beau skinning around to get a little money tt> have a time with on that day ; but the fates and the purses i were against me. It was but two days prior to the anticipated holiday, and I hadn’t 'nary a red. Remember this, boys, when I add that on the same afternoon I came into the house, when lo! there on the floor, totally overcome by his libations, lay my respected daddy, uu.l beside him j Jay six shining hall dollars which had rolled from his pockot. Boys, I’ve been an honest man ail my life, but (Micewhen a boy I committed a theft. I hooked one of those half dollars. Thinks I to myself, the old man’s been on a jamboree, and won’t know how much he spent, and will never miss it. But niai k you, the m-xt morning I and my two brothers were i summoned into my father’s presence. The old man’s face lowered, and I thought of the half dollar, and knew that a storm was brewing.” “Boys," said he, “lust night when I came home I had six half dollars. One of ’cm’s gone. Your mother didn’t take it. There’s been no one else in tie house. Which one of you took it ?" We all protested our innocence. “Boys, said the old man, “that half dollar never walked off, and I’m going to find out which one of you took it V” Turning around, he took down from the wall an old flint-lock blunder buss. Tlds he deliberately load, and with powder and buckshot in our presence; then, fastening it on the table, cocki 1 it, took a seat behind, holding a string in his hand, and in solemn tones addressed us thtisly : “Boys,” I’m going to discover the thief and punish him at the same time. You must each of vou blow into the muzzle of that guii. When the guilty one blows, off goes Ids head. Now. then, you have a chance; will you own up, or blow up ?” “Ben,” said the old man to rnv old est Mother, “have you got that half dollar a” “No, hlt .” “Take a blow.” “Nick. !eh, boys, I tell you the chills beg in to roll down my backi, “got that half dollar ?” “No, sir,” said I, with a defiant swagger. Blow that gun.” I wailo and up bravely, gave a Mow, and-—dodged! “Niek." said the old man in a voice of thunder, “where is that half dol lar ?" He ha ! me. The truth dodged out i of me. Said I, “out in the barn, pap.” —Wlivisthe letter [t] like matri mony V Because it’s the beginning of trouble. Directions for Compost liik Manures. Columbus, On,, Jan. 6, 1874. Editor Daily Times: It may not prove uninteresting to your readers, especially the farmers to have by them valuable directions for compost ing manures. The result of our ex perience should be known to each other, and I hope that is sufficient apology for troubling you with this communication; Many formulas are now being used for Composting Manures, and they I are more or less valuable in propor tion to the amount of I’lios/iliurk- Acid, Nitroyen, [Amenta] Potash, Lime,and Vegetable matter thev con tain. All these elements of plant, food ex ist in Stable, (’owlet, and other do mestic manures. But the quantity of domestic manure made on the farm alone, and unaided, is not usually adequate to manure all the cultiva ted land. It is therefore the interest of the farmer to so increase the powers of his domestic manures by the addi tion of chemicals that he will be en abled to economically manure all his cultivated lands every year, and thereby secure good returns for his labor. Phosphoric Acid is usually supplied to lund iu the form of Ground Bones, or some of the Phosphates. Xitroyen is usually supplied in the form of Nitrate of Soda or Sulphate of Amonia. Potash is usually supplied in the form of Muriate of Potash and ashes, Lime is usually supplied in the form of Common Lime or Land Plaster. A good formula for combining all these, which may be varied to suit the land, or the particular crop in tended to be grown, is as follows; Acid Phosphate 2tK) lbs. Nitrate of Soda or Sulphate Amonia, 60 lbs. Muriate Potash, 60 lbs. Land Plaster. 'UK. lbs. Thoroughly mix the above ingredi ents with at bushels of Cotton Seed, or 15 bushels of rich dirt ; then add the whole to about loot) lbs. of good Stable or Cowlot manure, taking care to moisten the whole, by sprinkling !on water during the mixing. Then let it stand under shelter until plant ing time, -if it is two or three months, so much the better. Watch it, and if it should become very warm, it will be best to work it over to prevent excessive beat. Strew about ;!00 lbs. to the acre, in the drill, for Corn or Cotton. Broad east about GOO lbs. to the acre, for wheat, or oats, or potatoes. On oak and hickory lands you may omit tlie potash. No one need expect good returns from Chemical Fertilizers unless the | land is well supplied with vegetable matter; and it is not less important to have good cultivation. Subsoil well under the Corn and Cotton, and do not permit the weeds and grass to absorb the strength of the manures.
