Irish' Potatoes. Mb. Editor: 'I observed in the last number an article on raising and keep ing Irish potatoes. - ( last year raised a line crop pretty much on Mr. Mitch cllYpIan,. and" kept 'them perfectly sound thruugh winter. .Planted this spring of my own raising. : Mode to keep them : Dig the potatoes as soon as they arc matured I don't care if in August. - It is not so much the hot weather that injures them, but remain ing too long in tlie ground they become watery'. J Alter they are t dug,, place them on dry sand, in a house sufficient jy aired ; and when dry, (which; will be in December, put them in hills, as we do the sweet potatoand i warrant he who triesjt, will ever after do it. When drying they should be noticed, and those decaying should be instantly removed, for the disease is certainly infectious, as you can rot a sound po tato by putting one touching it that is decayed. Respectfully, - ; : W. S. HILL.

Y., his sheep were yarded at night for two succcV sive summers itta yard -made for the purpose. He then plowed ami planted to corn and had a good crop ; the next spring he sowed with flax, which grew so tall that he could stand among it without shoes and bring the tops toge ther over his head and tie, them. He had enlarged the lot, and on that part not included within the sheepfold the flax was much shorter, and easily tu be observed by any one at a distance. The soil was what he called 'a pour hard pan." The above ' facts speak loudly in favor of sheep manure, much of .which might be saved by yarding sheep of nights and not permit them to occupy the road tu perplex the tra veller. . Hitch. Farmer.

Mrs. Tho mas Twomhley - was too well accus tomed tu the comings and goings of said Thomas to be muj:h disturbed by the trifling noise he made on retiring.1 but when she discovered that he had his boots on she requested him tore move them, or keep his feet out of the bed. - My dear," said Mr, Twombley, in an apologetic tone, skuse me 1 . How I came to forget my boots I can't con ceive, for I'm just ns sober as ever I was in toy life." Mr. Twombley sat on the side of the bed and made an effort to pull oflf his right boot. The attempt was success ful, though it brought htm to the floor. On regaining his feet Mr. Twombley thought he saw the door open. As ho was sure he shut the door on coining in, he was astonished ; and, dark as it was in the room, he couldn't be mistaken, he felt certain, Mr. Twombley stag gcred towards the door to shut it, w hen, tu his still greater surprise, he saw a fi gure approaching from beyond. Twom bley stopped; the figure stopped. Twom bley advanced again ; the figure did the same. Twombley raised his right hand; the figure raised his left. Who's there!" roared Twombley, beginning to be frightened. The figure made no reply. Twombley raised his boot in a menacing attitude; the figure defied him by shaking a simliar object. Cried Twomblev, " I'll find out who you be, you sucak!" He hurled the boot full at the head of the myste rious object, when crash went the big looking-glass which " Twombley had mistaken for the door. N. o. '. THE NEW TERRITORIES.
