Wo males swagger, and talk of our superiority, bat only the Savage has practical dominion over the "weaker sex," simply because he bangs his recalcitrant female in lordly stylo 0 We don't beat our women, and are there- ti fore slaves; wo are forced to knock under because we have fastidious scruples about a knocking them down This may be quite ii correct: I only stale the fact, without com mentary.

A soil would never get exhausted if managed with skill, but would con-1 tinue to improve in depth and fertility in proportion to the industry bestowed upon it. The food of plants, it is true, may be exhausted from the soil by a repetition of cropping with any one family qf plants, if we neglect of such fertilizers as may have been taken front the soil by that family, but no part of the season is required for the soil to rest, or be fallow; if judiciously managed by a successive varying of the irons, or by supplying to them such bod as may be a compensation for rvhat has been taken by tho prcvima prnn .4. uv utou IV Ui; ained for scouring ft ccrtain and proiiable return of produce from the soil nust be the rough drainage the next in breaking into the sub-soil to he desired without first whether it is proper and to shilt or turn up the suboil at once to the influence of the atnospliere, or whether it best to treat into the well first by shifting he surface soil and allowing the suboil to remain and the (cneficial influence of the atmosphere, the trenching a portion the subsoil may be safely stirred ip and mixed the surface soil; bis practice continued fur every succeding crop, wilLestablish a healthy.

Suddenly a tremendous yell arose rom where the Doctor was sitting, nd lie leaped from his seat so as to almost overset the boat. The shrieked, and the gentlemen eizing the Doctor to prevent hisjumpug overboard, demanded the cause.

"I'm snake bitten," screamed he; I always said I'd be, and you see I rignt." here has it bitten you asked of the terrified ladies. It doesn't matter," groaned ho, both hands to the tail of his oat. "I'm bitten and that's sufficient, always told you that I'd be killed by i snake and you wouldn't believe me. tfow you see it has come true." The poor fellow in spite of the he suffered, seemed to take a melincholy exultation in fihowing thern hat his prophecy had been fulfilled.
