Hi- buys a large farm and wants to be called a '"large fanner,1 wftboot on- derstanding or puejeioWing the true ele- merits thai constitute m real fanner. He fancies the- grootnem of that profession, as i.- too often the common estimate, to be in proportion to t lit- number of acres, not to say enjtjiated, bat embraced within the boundaries of hi domain. The fact is now being spread i.l,rn.ij. tbal a large farm does J not make a man oitlir ri. h, contented or ; happy; but. en the contrary, tan nworae Of nil the, unless well tilled, when his labor is rewarded by ample crops and fair success m the various departments in which he is 1 engaged. No farmer can realize the full benefit! of his profession without adopting ! a thorough system or culture. Hi-t success, . commensurate to his wishes, alwavs de pends upon the manner in which he pre pares his grounds, plant his seed, and rears his sfock. Neither ,f these departments, which may be considered the cardinal ones of his profession, will take care of them- ! solves. The soil may be rich, but it needs ' Culture. His seed may be sown, but it i should be in due time, and always on soil ! well prepared and of a suitable gaehzj for i the production of tho crop desired. His ! stock must bo constantly cared for it derives its thrift from the soil, and sends j Ogata to that soil the sustenance it requires; but this is not done in a loose or haphazard way. The farmer's care is required, and all his better judgment must be exercised in keeping up this system of reciprocal benefits that may be realized by every in- telligent and industrious farmer. Thorough cultivation and systematic atten tion to all parts ofhhl business is indispen sable to a good degree of success. The very corner stone to this whole system of farming, is to do what yon do thoroughly nature will not be cheated, and never give full returns to the half-way work that is practiced by vastly too many calling them selves faiinuie. If the lend has been worn, the extent of thut exhaustion and the food required, must be first considered. When ascertained, the full measure of these re quirements must be given, to bring out full returns. If the farmer has but a small stock, and consequently but B small amount of manure to replenish his hind, it is ob vious tiiat but a small farm can be supplied with it; and good judgment at once dic tates that to cultivate properly a large farm. artificial fertilizers must be used if good crops are obtain. .!. 4n.l bo .vith the labor- two men cannot suitubly till one hundred acres of land, when the labor of two men, ! -...l l . e , i . , ... , uuu pvmu iuur, miirni oe prontuuiy em- i .rd - Sevo,,,-f,,: ,cr. I his is the great error in farming. Two , men strive to do what tour can hardly do. and thus tnovmuKls of ocroe aro ru-i over, ' nan tnieii, aim prod ooiag halt crops. The land i run ore till worn out, sustaining year after yen r the unnatural tux, till its energies are entirely exhausted and it fails to yield even a feeble crop, because its life in worn out. Much of the soil in Virginia and other Southern StatOfl is a type of this. Thousands of acres nre lying entirely use less and exhausted, nnd will ever remain so, till the firt elements of its power are re turned to it. This process is fust going on in many of tho Western States. The soil is treated like an iiiexhuustiblc mine ; tho tillera crying give, give, give! till in a few years it will have nothing to give. The honst of the West is largo farms and large fields of grtin ; plow, sow and reap is tho haainUH of western farmers, drawing out the very life of the sol, sending away in the heavy exports that are constantly going onward, without returning to the soil the food it requires to make it productive. The light that is being spread abroad on this subject is In ginning to correct this practice to some Citent, but in most in stances very little is returned to the soil to keep it alive, till after several years of con tinual cropping, it mnnifests si-ms of ex- 1 A" . . imuMion anu ultimate barrenness.

Henry Augustus Foster, a young gentle mau whose chief worldly possessions were a magnificent moustache and a cracked guitar, chanced to meet at a party the charming Miss Charlotte Haskins. It was a brief meeting, but brief as it was, there was time for Augustus to have his heart meet powerfully affected. "The die is Cast," said he, "henceforth I can no longer call mv heart my own. Into thy hands, adorable charmer. I consign it." He went to a party the next evening, but alas! Charlotte was not there. He retired from it in disgust. On returning home he luckily bethought himself of his guitar, and conceived the plan of serenading the object of his passion. The next evening found him at her resi dence, under her window, playing: 'The winds are at rest, and the lake, love, Li.-d shining in silver and blue ; The birds are asleep in the grove, lov. And the roses are gleaming with dew. Then wake, 0, wake, For the bright lake Ls glistening In the moon's lovely ray, And the night bird is singing On the lea." The window opened as the verse closed. Augustus looked up, and was delighted to see a female form Charlotte, without doubt lfcanc-d from the window. She spoke. "Massa, that's a mighty good fiddle of yourn. please play Dinah one more tune. I'se all alone and music comforts me. Miss Char lotte gone to New Port." iiciir) .tiugusmg, uisuovering tits c:uc t r , i i - ,. ,, Charlotte, moved off in a hurry, Dinah -ail ing alter him : "I say. massa, come again to-moivow night if you han't anything else to do, and bring your fiddle with yer. I'm most alwavs at home." But Henry Augustus hasn't been there since. l Tf THE WAGON! S7hy is it Jenkins & Taylor sell Stoves V so cheap? Because they buy them f. om the Manufacturers.
