Oaie bis pubic u iei kept him from hoiiit the uiot el the time lor several years, hit njroeB biennis idle and worth less, and ul ball crops wire raised; tbe curls and wauons and farming ut. nsils were left in tba field, and without shelter went to ruin; tbe lencot were d.iwn or il i !n pi I a', r 1 and the cattle and stuck of every kin I were cripple I by the negroes in tlio ilTirts to che thain out ol tbe rloUla. Mure tlxn balf the negroes were 'playini possum,' tliat Is prctcuJcil lo be tick in o:der to void work. While things wore io this condition Mr. Randolph camr home from Warrington to spiod tbe Christmas holidays. Looking oyer his plantatiou aacounts with his over seer, be discovered that bis plantation was Dot. only self sui'aiouing, but actually lri dioij bim to debt. After a thotoub examination of everything on the planta tion, he caw at once what was 'ho matter, an I that his rigid instructions to his over icef to he fi'blcnt to tho nejroei hid le-n the cause ol the trouble, and they wi uld n t woik under fear of punishment, so l he determined upon a plan for tin ir correc tion. The slavd ol old Virgii ia am) all the S mill, had always a wei k's holiday from Cljrialnitts to New Ycir, n I these days ere ol general j ibtlc..! and vilification Y'iV, nng? win kept at the bii? miniion lor evur body anil all bands, there was s terri ble ahuijhtcr among the ncgioea' great pigs nnd hit poultry, and many a possum caught weeks tiel.iro and lattelu I in bnX 'S or bar. ruh, sod 'conns' smnke l in the big cabin chimney, were saved up with pound cake pud lings, chicken pie 'store let,' and locust and persimmon tictr, at tho holiday fensts niiht and duv It was then that the (1 Idle. the tambourine, an I ttic ikvn pin kept up a perietuul muse for lliu never ceasing dancs. Mr. Randolph wailed fur the (ermina ti .u ol these Christum Imlidsy", and promptly on tin firt day nt January he ar dered bis overseer to have all the tunning utensils brought lo tho birnyard. It took all day to search f.ir tliein and g t lliein together from where thy bad ben lying about in the fluid; lar a i l ncur. Tho next morning there W:n a cre .t itiapciioa ol the plnws, barrows, hots and uk s, and all that were brokin or iirinuaiv injund were throwa into a pile. Mr. lliLililph then siid in his shrill voice. 'd;t theu I D liie, Mr, Cu'imley, anil liura tSem tip.' 1 he avenctr riiil.instra'e t an 1 ur;ed lint many of Una tuij-l.t be rc pireJ. 'No ii!

All the horses, mulis snd homed ttock were brought np lor ihe Mirth ilsy, and uniter Mr. Kindnlph's rigid insjiertinn many wer declared ivmtlilei'ii, an I (Ilium ley begged that some ol them might be spared, as they cou'd he fattened and put to good use. Mr. Randolph was unrelent ing, and all the cond nine 1, inclu ltn the blind, lame, spavine I, llatuhited and wind brnken, were merci'iisly lmt and bmi d As tbe wraiher hud ln-u q ti'e c ild du ring these days id in;iM tion. manv of the negrout and especially the old, had Con tlnueii to 'play posum.' and hud never turne I out ol their cabins to aid in getting t'ioiiuer tli hv loeij tjr fnrrmr. utns: Mr. Hmdolpli now gave or tars that all the negroes, old or young, should be brought to the house urxt day fur inspection, and tn the me.ntimo he had a cuod mni tdaiu C ifTms of all siz"s made. ami m.lah'e travel dug near tbe chapel. The news of theie tearful prerarations soon penetrated cverv cabin in the negro qnaitur, and things boon to look aerioiia in the mind ol Mr. C.dlee lilnck. Tbo ne groes know that Mr. Handidpb wu a mr-ra-txr nt Congres ar.d a big man in the coun try, they knew that Mr Ilunlolpli was ac customed to have bis way, and that nobody a'tempte I to intcifere with bim, and tbey fnlly believed ho had lull p iwi-r of life and neatn over tliein. I hry anew he was a gaol kind mi-ter, man in I neighbor, but then they aaid he ha I 'such i iaro ways' that there was no telling what be would do if the notion took him. They had seen how be bad burned up all the larmlng I in plemeot'; had cauped all the worthies ahoej), goats and horses lo bo knocked in the the head, and how he had fliot all tin-broken- lo'.vn atock with ut any pity, and niw wha1 did he mean to do witn lliem. an ) with a'l thrse ex fllns and graven? Th's was exsctlv tne train ol comment aad teuucli'io that Mr. lUndolph had calcul i ltd upon, ami accordingly, on hi arriv il at the ground, he found an anxioua, terri- IW I crowd of negr iel.and not on misaing, all there. Ileenteret ard took his nat bdiJe tie oveiiiir, at a tatle. Jjba servant, placed on the table beloio him his diielling case, open, and containing a pair of pistols and plenty of ammunitinn. 'Are they all hen?' atkud Mr. Randolph to the ovemter. tpsponaa hundred totes; ,ua, yes M:nst John, we's all here.' Cliumley was ordered to call the list containing the names of all those wbo had been old enough to work during tho year, but bad not worked. They were placed in a row, in nhich a ioo Mood mote than half of alt the grows negroes. The old sliiiks and sinncis were not slow to see bow the list had been made up, and long before the roll Ciill was ended many of them were on their knees beseechingly looking Irom the stern face of their mas ter towards the pistols and the open graves and many a 'Lord bavo mercy on me.Marst John,' went up from the line; but Ran dolph ordered them tn be Mleut. When tbe laatoian had bien called tbe yelled ou': 'You say, Charuley Ibe niggers won't work; they are old, worthless sod good for-nothing, that they cannot make enough to ea'; and I must buy bread and meat to Iced them.' Hsndiog Chutn'cy a pair ( oisnls, be said : Uhumlejr, begin at (he ether end of the 1 i o ; I'll begin at this, and we'll shunt these worthless negroes.' A tiniversil shriek went no. and all the negroes rubbed lo Randolph and begcd in the rmut pltiltil trrms for their lives; ill declared that th' y could wmk and that they Dcvir would p'ay p.issum and lie uatn. Rind dph finally relented, and agreed tn upare them, provided they routd give se etirily among the other negroes that they would woik well in the future.' Not one could have i fleeted such a genuine scare as Randolph did. Thu nearoes knew that he was a strange, ercentrlo man; that the white people of Charlotte all but wo-ship-ped him, and they believed implicitlv that he would do what he said he would do. IIo did not all iw any severe puti'shmei t upon bis slaves, but this lesion was sufli cie t. The empty graves were without oc cu pants, and the oerocs went to woik with a will. LAND AT THE POLES, A few years ago a farmer of Surprise Vally foon I io tho crop of a wild goose a small quantity of grain tbe like ol wb ch lie had nnver belnre seen. He sowed this grain, and it grew and fl'snriihed. produc ing more than a hundred fold. The straw and baartllers head a:o said to reeemble wheat, while the grain looks like rye, but is twice as lare. The farmer has now many butbcls of this cereal, and has sent samples of it to bo planted in vail"U places io ( itliloruit, where food lor rattle is not r:iily obtained at snme seasons, as the stalk of the new grain, when cui before it Is thoroughly ripe, makes excel lent hay. An old snilnr, after reading an item, which has beca uoing the rounds ol the pap'TS in f gard to the new cereal, the substance ol which item is given above, finds bis memory rcfreslud. It brings to hit recollection a circumstance be had al mt-t lorgotteu, and has sit bim I thitikins. Ho ims thought it alt out and is now firmly convinced of tho opii ion that there is an iuhabitaMo land at the North Pule. The old mm suys that be was one of the crew ol the Investigator, Cipt. Mi Chip', which sailed from 10 up land, in company with the Kuterpiie, Cmnmanler Cnlhs-n, io search ol Sir John Franklin, and bo ccrlaioly has in liis pofl-efsion one of tho Arctic medals given hy the Knglwh Admiralty to all persons engaged in these polar expedi tions Irom' lbIS to lJ. In September ol that year tho Investigator reached Baring's Land, and three days atterward ancther land which he named Prii co Al bert, where about the last ol the month they were fn zn In. While in the last name! land, the ex plorers obscivid many wild geese and 0 her lowl tlyiui" B uthwatil. sime ol the geese stopped aMho pla'-e wncre the ship lay and several were killed by mem bers nl the crew. In the crop ol some ol trust geese ne reooiiccts to unve seen, and marveled at sieing, a considerable qianti ty ol grain snch as the new cereal ol Surprise Vui'j is sai l to be. As no tuch gruin is Knuwn .in tne temierato f.or.i, iad as c biyc tio account ul a grain ol the kind being fount in any known region ol I lie world, be is of the opiniun that tbe geese obtained it in a region lying about the Polar Bea He says no man has yet goue so far north but he lound wild geese and ether water lowl flying stilt Inrther northward. As the ge-e are undou'tt ed!y wending their way to a well known stopping pluco far to the north, there mut be somithing to feel upon at the poit.t lure they stop, as wild gcc?c n" m ire live on I i -It than do tame ones, there inu-t be, in the country to which they go. srass and other tegetation similar to t but fonud in temperate regions. A MODEL PRISON. The KiifT correpumlent ol the St. Petertburg Juuruul writes as tollnw "The persons iimier arrest in the Kull prison resulted some tune Hg t li nnel under the walls nl tbo prisou and to es care. The nil. mo was betrayed to the prison authorities by one- ol tba con apuators. How did the authorities aci I hey allowed the pnsonirs to continue their exesvntion without molestarino, am! when al last the tunnel was completed and one fine night the piisunvra entered it ene after the other, tntviding lo come through an opening beyond tho prison precincts, and to gain tbeir freedom, soldiers who bad been previously posted it wC (.piling tool down l'ie escaping prisoners as tbey came up ene after ann.her. Wheu tne bulk el tbe prisoners, tirnti'd by Ibe noUe ol tbe firing, slopped sho.t and remained quiet in the tunnel, soldiers were sent In Iron behind, and the uiilortunate wretches, caught between two fires, wore all shot dowu." The cureipnn dent alds that the proceedings seemed lo yive the ollicia's "much amusement, and that tho "prudent" oinctor of the Kitff prison has breo praised and decorated lor having acted with audi cleverness and di-cisiou, and nnt allowing the prisoners lo escape. (June lu keeping with this is stntenvnl puhli-hed by the HusMan pnest who acts as chaplain iu the Center prison it ('harki'lT. In the idlicial Kparchialn WiMnmosti (Dmcesao Intel'dgenCe) he diUarcs ss a luct, that of five hundred persons de'.ained in that prison, two bun dred huvo died witbiu tb,e last four month, One at the hcavtist charg.s, it will b remembered, muda by tho N bili-ts agaimt llnstinn olViuial admiuistration was the brutal trta'inrnt ol priaoners, In eo i St 1111 nee ol which the health of mail prisoners was quite broken dowu, lying aud sumo bclotf diiten madness. 111:10 V iul a n nisiiman Having purihasri an alarm clock, an ai q'uintaxce asked bim wh.t h intin led in do with it. 4 Oehe, anawered be, "s.uc I ve nothing to do Lu l.is pjd the ail z 1 1 g and wake injM'lt. ECONOMY. Tho will apply to labor ef all kind'. It is economy to have everything ready helore beuinning work. It is economy to have good tools, a good start, a fast walking team and a good hired man.
