As the two latter have the property of ripening some days be fore our common varieties of wheat, if they otherwise succeed in this climate, a great point Yvill be accomplished. A single week gained in the ripening will often secure the crop from the injury of the rust or the Hy, independent of the advantages to be gained in the market. The Saumur wheat is originally from the valleys of Anjou, a southeastern province of France, and is a very remarkable variety of winter wheat. The ear is strong and full, of a reddish color, and very much esteemed by farmers. The straw is very white, higher than that of ordinary wheat, and also larger and SYY'eeter. The Noe wheat, was introduced by Mr De Noe, and is commonly known in the centre of France under the name of blue wheat, and owing to its hardy and productive nature, it is gradually superseding the Saumur wheat in the high I ..C T....; .....1 lt.

Religious Superstition: ok, the Histoky of a Cart. In one of the large cities South of the United States, a man established himself j in the business of collecting "paper rags." Wishing to supersede the old mode of collec ting, lie ordered from this country a cut, Yvhich was made and forwarded to him. A feYV days since he visited New York, and gave the foIloYving history of his cart : On its arrival out, he had it properly furn ished wit L the insignia of the trade, "lings Hough! " &c, procured a large mule, and har ness to match, appointed a driver and purchaser, yvIio was furnished with a bell. Thus prepared, the cart started on its first mission through the city. Ding, ding ding, ding, went the bell. Noyv it happened that this Yvasa Roman Catholic city, and accidentally the bell purchas ed was in size and tone xcry similar to those Yvhich preceded a religious procession in which the "Host" was usually carried. On Yveut the Rag Cart, ding, ding, went the bell, all the people Yvere seen crossing themselves, or on their knees, shopkeepers running out and dropping on their knees, and in one instance about fifty men, employed in a cigar manufac tory, came out and at once prostrated them selves before the poor mule and cart and the equally dump-struck driver. On the return of the cart to the store, the driver said he could not try that again and he felt so sorry for one aged lady, richly dressed, who in her religious fervor prostrated herself into the filth of the street, to the most entire ruin of her dress. To correct these sad mistakes, a small bell YY'as procured, and rung with the" larger one, and the difficulty Yvas obviated. The Rag Cart is knoYvn by its chime, and the religious procession by its single ding, ding. -Horrible .Affair. a. negro woman belong ing to Mr Henry E.

Advice to Y'ouxg Housekeepers. We do not knoYV the origin of the foIloYving advice to young housekeepers; but it is excellent: " Be satisfied to commence on a small scale. It is too common for young housekeepers to begin where their mothers ended. Buy all that is necessary to Yvork skillfully wifh; adorn your house Yvith all that Yvill render it comfortable. Do not look at richer homes, and covet their costly furniture. If secret dissatisfaction is ready to spring up, go a step farther, and visit the homes of the poor and suffering, behold dark, cheerless apartments, insufficient clothing, ami absence of all the comforts" and refine ments of social life, and then return to your OYvn with a joyful spirit. You will then be pre pared to meet your husband Yvith a grateful heart, and be ready to appreciate the toil and self-denial which he has endured in the business world to surround you with the delights of home: and you Yvill be ready to co-operate cheerfully Yvith him in so arranging your ex penses, that his mind will . not be constantly harassed with fears lest his family expenditures may encroach upon public payments. Be inde pendent; a young housekeeper never needed greater moral courage than she does hoyv to re sist the arrogance of fashion. Do not Iet-the A's and B's decide what you must have, neith er let them hold the strings of your purse. Yrou knoYV best what you can and ought to afford; .i j .i-i-ji. - ; "--"djf - l6"jr6Uf "means. , Let pot the tehsut6jDril proval of the Yvorld ever tempt you to iuy wnat you hardly think yon can afford.
