Th« Last Belie.
It is told of a yeung girl, some seven
teen years of age, who, clad in deep
morniug, knocked at tbe door ef a rich
osan's house it one of our large oitiea,
and asked esgerly for the owner. The
servant, who, no doubt, partaking of
the deoieaaer of hia maater, who was
deemed a harsh and sever* msa by all
who knew him, was about to turn tho
supp'aint from the door When ber im
portunities touched a lingering chord
•faympathy io his heart,and he announc
ed her to the lordly owner ol the mansion
He waa indeed, a very sterm man, and
apparently hard and unfeeling in his
in his nature. There were deep wrink
lee oa bis brow, which seemed to denote
that he had not paaaed through life with
out partaking of some of its sorrows and
mfcny of ile oares. He was in a deep
reverie when the servant entered ; per
haps he was oounting "his gains, or it
may be, bringing back the past before
him as ia a glass, and counting up bis
hours from childhood to bis wsary age
Who knows? How tew eare ! But strange
it was even to tha servant, who knew so
well the forbidding nature of his masters,
when after a momeot'a hesitation tbe
rioh man said, "Let her oome in "
Io a momeat the poor girl was in his
presence. It was a strange eontrast;
that weak, trembling being treading up
on soft carpels ia the meek habiliments
of poverty in the presence of tbe owner
of millions—she ia her deep humility
and be 10 the lordliness of wealth. She
atood before bim, and, in low, trembliog
tonea, that were full ef melancholy sweet
ness said :
"Sir, I aa a stranger in diatreaa ; I
aw a fatherless child, and my levad moth
er is ns>w severely ill. For many months
I have labored hard to sustain ber, but
poverty enmes too fast upon us. We
are poor, but we are aot beggars; we
came from a far ooantry, aad are Strang
ars. One by eue we have parted wi»i>
all our little valuables, and here ia the
laa relic of a laved father* He gave it
to me aa a keepsake Somathing to
keep for his dear memory; but *ls > !
airavmiou is a stern thing, and neceasity
knoeenolaw You are rich—some say
you are unkind, and yet 1 have ventur
ed ; will ynu buy it Sir?"
She esaeed speaking, and the rich
mar. appealed touch ; he looked at the
spatter with a glance ia whieh tendar
neae aeined struggling with the morose
feeing which had for so many years
congealed into iee the more tender emo
tions ot hia nature
"Look up. young lady," said he
Hia vmoe had in it a tone of sympa
thy thai fave her confidence j and she
raiaed her eyes timidly to tbe penetra
ti'-n glance nf him io whose presence
eho stood.
'•Let uie examine tha artiole you wish
no to buy. and although noi doing tiosi
nesa. yet perl aps I may be indueed to
help your present necessities "
The Kirl, with trembling hands, took
fri'Dl her neck a black ribbon, at the
•ud el which there was attached a rich
jewel of gold. It was of singular shape,
and upon iu two sides were engraved
certain characters of whiofc its pleading
poeaesor knew aot the meaning ; and yet
ahe prised it muoh as the gift of a dear
ly loved father; and aa she almost re
luctantly placed it in the hands of bim
whom she sought to be iu purchaser,
she pleaded :
"When limoeget good ague, air, I
can buy it back ; hut oh ! buy it now
sir, that 1 may get bread for my mother
and procure that medicine that her mal
ady requires."
The rioh man had taken tbe jewel in
hia hand, he paseed tbe ribbon through
hie hnger*, aad at last looked upon the
artielee he was solicited to buy. Why
doea he atari f Why turn ghastly pale
and sink into the richly cashioned chair
that waa behind, eover his bands, and
weep like a ehild! Why press that
jewel lo hia lips, aad then vo bis beart
aad sgsio weep ?
Reader, do yon aak why f The jewel
tbe last relic of that poor unfriended
git I and her sfflioted mother, wee that
of a Mark Master, and it belooged to
the eoly brother of him to whom it was
! ogered for sale Oh ! how deep wis the
etruggle withia that maa'a breas ! He
was rieb ia all thia world oau afford of
wet Idly goods, bat mesg r e in- those d«ep
aad dear affections which made life
desirable He had lived for himttlf,
•ud be hud boarded up tbe druse of
wealth au I periui'ted tha fountain of
daep affection to dry up in his aoul
He bad forgotten his kindred, be re
memborel oot the o d familiar faces
that used to bless him ut (he fi«rrida.
Hut now, aa il Providence had dirceled
it ail, a tittle jewel, hia brother's mark,
came to hiiu, even us the day star cornea
to the .levotee, to direct hia thoughts
to heaven aud humanize hia feeling
Tha strong man is subdued ! il» in no
lenger the man bound up in gold but
the man made and reuowe i in the
of*ib# God oT love ! lint let him weep ; I
the teara will do him good, fit they are i
not only tears of deep contrition for past j
sins of otuisaioo, but dryps that will bi
a blessing on more than one Borrowing j
beart. Hear him while he speaks to j
her :
"Young lady, I do not aik your Dame.
The uiau rcho owned thi« jewel was the !
son of nr. father, and uiy brother by a
tie almost as sacred as that of blood
Waa he your lather ? Tell me!".
'•He was my father, air"
'•Then I am your unele ; take me to
your mother. Henceforth our fortunes
are one—uiy home shall be yours, and
you shall be uiy d.iugnter."
**»**»
There were three happy hearts that |
day in a small hous in one of tha lanes
in that crowded ciiy—a tall, dark look
ing man, with iron-gray hair and strong
features, yet now bearing a subdued
aspect, and a moistened eye ; a widowed
invalid, with a placid smile irradiating
her calm and beautiful features ; and a
young girl, gmtle in her subdued beau
ty ; blessing God that Hia smile had
sanctified the last relic.

Shade and Shelter for Stock.
It is no use, wben the cold north
wind is howling through the creviees
ot the stable, or the broiling SUB is roast
ing the miserable fly plagued cattle, to
say that wo wished we had planted
somethif'g to uiake things more comfort
able, unless we attend to such things
now. It is really surprising to note bow
many uiiserabld place there ate in the
Country which a few dollars or a few
ht'Us.; at this peas iti would make quite
pleasant. A few Norway or sugar ma
ples spruces, chorry trees or willows,
planted around buildings cost very lit
tie and yet help wonderfully to rnako
winter pass pleasantly away.
In regard to cattle io the summer
time left to roam about sunburnt pas
tures, • fe« shade trees are a positive
I
luxury It i* a real pi- enure to ascthe j
cons lying under the shade after hav
ing, perhaps, juat pt-seJ some ID the vi
cinity roasted ami flvej to death in tbe
open field. It is, however, not so prov
ide lor this as it is to shelter one's build
ings. A tree in the middle of a pas
ture field is ell very well while it is io
pas ure ; but no gud I'armsr bus any
faith, in these days, in permanent pas
ture, and wheu the tun# comes for grain
or root crops io thai pieeeof ground there
is uo greater auisance than 10 have trees
about. It interlerea with ibe plowing,
and then it robs the ground of fiod
It is astonishing what au eitcnt a root
will push in search ot lood when the
trco to which it is etiached stands in
tbe open ground. Si ill there are gen
erally odd Oorners where trees may be
left to advantage, especially a wet place,
perhaps, near a spring, where a willow
would grow, which might as well be
planted with something as not
It is not aiways aecesxsry to send a
long distance to the nursery for trees,
thoegh it never does sny harm to pat
ronise thueo public benefactors, the nor
serymen, whea one eau afford to do so ;
but eveu those good people do not ebject
to others plsnting aaything they can get
for netbing rather than lo have thorn
not plant at all. Trees from the woods,
if any are at oammand, cqa be made to
do tolerably, if oare be takeu in plant
ing, and if they be severely pruoed at
planting ; and io the ease of tbe willow
and poplar, large branches, if diveited
of the small twigs and made like stakes,
grow aa woll without as with roota. —

Mr. Spoopendyke returned rather warm

"I've got mine rods, if that's

point of a worm ber busbaud I.ad im

"They'll probably bite at that as soon
aa they can borrow a. step ladder," re
torted Mr. Spoopendyke, eyeing the
dangling hook. "If you calculate to get
any fiah, (you'i better l»» ibing
down in the water."
"Oh !" said Mrs Spoopendyke, drop
ping the hook. "Do you think I could
catch a gold fiih ?" the inquired, after a
pause
"Hi ! hold rn ! There, I lost bim !''
ejaculated Mr Spoopendyke, firing bis
hook up towards the [lights.
'So dtd I!" ehiuied in Mra Speopen
dyLe, as she fell over backward and 'hot
her sinker into Mr Spoopeodykr'i ear ;
"I declare we both loat him
"What ya doing?" demanded Mr

quivering with exoitement. "Crack

"Lift your pole ttraight up in the air !"

Mrs Spoopendyke threw the pole

the winter grass' The State Agricultu
ral Department thinks there is yet time
to remedy the scarcity by sowing rye.
An intelligent Guilford entertains the |
same opicion and submits the following: I
'■Run the harrow and then tho cultiva
tor over every field where corn haa been
cut, potatoes githeied or any other crop
taken off, and sow from one and a halt !
to two bushels of rye to the acre. I'ut
it iu witb the cultivator or even the bar- j
row, if anything pievents it from being
more oarelully eovered. Every acre of
lye sown in September Will givr, iu j
Fsbruary and March, a good freih cut
for tbe milch oows, besides a good graz
ing in the early winter and a heavy fer
tilizing mass of fresh vegitaiion, lo be
turned under iu April in time for plant- [
ing Curu, Irish potatoes, Bweet potatoes
or any other root orop The laud will |
be benefited by turning under the stub
ble of thia extra crop of rye. The stock
will be ihe gainers by the fresh food, :
while tbe dry fodder and hay will be
saved.
Many good farmers aow rye this way
on their harvested land every year, and
by turning under the stubble alter cut
ting the green crop in the sprmg, the
land has gaiued iu fertility and proilun

How to Dress Our Babies.
Ws dress our babies much more iin
sibly (hull our mother* did, but there is
I still a wile margin fur improvement.
The old idea that an infant's skirts must
j be one yard long, that there must be
three or lour of them to ttre and haras*
I ihem by their height, aud that bands
and waists should be fastened lightly
round their bodies, has entiruly gone by.
Shirts aie now made not more than a
quarter or three eights of a yard below
ilieir feet, wheu they are finished. One
fl itinel skirt, one lijlit muslin skirt, with
| ihe skirt uf the dress, is uow considered
! sufficient. These are ui tde with bands
| and shoulder straps, so as to relieve the
! waist and hips of all weight The
shoulder-strap should not be a nitre bit
j of tape, to cut into the tender flesh, but
at legist an iucb broad, and come well up
oyer the shoulder The flannel bands
worn by all babies fur at le >st two months
alter birth, are now fastened on with
| tapes. It is nut considered nrccs ary to
wind them two or tlirue times around
the body, drawing them us snugly as
p' Saibl*, and then fastening them with
pins, which were always loosening and
; sticking into the littia victim After
I cutting tlieui the required length, the
' two corners of each eud should be fold
ed over towards the ceuire and fastened
there, leaving the endsin a pointed shape
| to which broad tapes should be attacbod.
Ou one side, about half way in the cen
tre, make und bind a slit ling'hwise of
toe bind I'ut the band ou over the
abdomen, pass it round the bjdy, and
sup the under end through the slit, thus
briuging both tape? to the outside to be

i baud is, that they can readily be looseo
