Tke.iery of the Phenomenal se caliber two I slimmed a 4.14 Spring le Isle: Durit:g a cull spring, like that which is just now drawing to an end, people generally c 1p.4.le themselves with the rede_tiuittbaythey aill etentuully get the viet• ry, and hat seintiui will certainly come at last though its coining may be delayed. stcertain as the weedier is, the general features of the et -Reims recur with a regularity which warrants the confidence thus revised in the annual re- turn of serd tore anti harvest ; but tht re are i tstailees on record in elect' even the ashcan■ seem to have lot their oharactelistic features, as if the ordinary laws of ruete..roltgyr had been teuij orsri- ly suipe•ided. A re iestklub, cine of .thea kind, it"d tete which the lent -c• n- tinued cold weather of this spring makes parried:10v inter.,tiliq just now, is that of the year 1811i, which has been called " the w inter without a winner.'

Jeer was the u' B- est et er known iu this latitude : frost and ice were enflame. Almost story green thing was killed ; fruit nearly all destroyed. Snow fell to the depth of ten inches in Vermont, erten in Maine, three in the interior of New York, and also in Massachusetts. There were a few warm days. It was called a dry sea- son. But little rain fell. The wind blew steadily from the north, cold and fierce Mothers knit extra socks aid mittens fur their children in the spring and woodpiles that usually disappeared during the waren &fell in front of the homes were speedily ,built up again. Planting and shivering( were dune togeth- er, and tine farmers who worked out their teams on the country reeds wore overcoats and mittens. In • town in Vermont • Suck of sheep belonging to a farmer had been sent u usual to their paature. On the lith of June a heavy snow fell in New England. The cold was intense. A farmer who had a large ti*id of corn in Tewksbnry built tires around it at night to ward of the frost ; many an even- ing he and his neighbors took turns watching them. He was rewarded with the only drop of corn iu the neighbor- hood. Considerable damage was done n New Orleans. in consequence of the >pid rias of the Mississippi River. Fels were entertained that the sun was cooling o4 and tbr.,ughout New Eng- lacd picnics were strictly pr:,hibited. July was accompanied with front and we. Indian corn was nearly all destroy-. el , some favorably situated fields escap- ed August was more cheerlrai', if pos- sible, than the $ in er months which preceded it. Ice was formed half an inch 'iu thicknes. Indian corn was so frozen that the greater part wax cut down and dried fur fodder. Almost every green thing was doatrtyed in this country and in Europe. On the 30th &now fell a' Barnet, forty 'tides floor London. Very little corn ripened in New England and the Middle States. Farmers supplied themselves from corn produced in 1815 ler seetl in the spring of 1817. It sold at from 84 to $.i per bushel. September furnished about two weeds i f the pleasantest weather of the season, but in the latter part of the month ice fertile(' an inch thick. October had mote then its share of cold weather. Novem- ber was cold and snowy. December was comfortable, and the winter follow- ing was mild. Very little vegetation was matured in the Eastern anti Middle State.t. The sun's rays aeemt•1 to be 1 destitute of heat during the summer, all nature was dad in • sable hue, and men exhibited nu little anxiety concerning - the future of this life. The average price of flour during the year in Nei* York market was 813 per barrel. The average price of wheat in England was 97 shillings per quarter. Bread riots eccurret'- throughout Great Britain in 11417, in consequence of the high price of the staff of lite. Fat m art tbarden. From "Usrdeninu furieueg and Old," oy Joseph Harris, we present sumo vale able suggestions, which will be iu auawu at the pressed time when Lruparetiens are to be made for seine: n.,tk in the garden. Cauesuee. --Mr. Harris halt had aLun- .laut experieuee in raising cabbages, and thew are his figures oil the prufits, the ground having been thoroughly enrich- ed and prepared :--It would not be dif- ficult, Ito remarks, to raise live thousand heads to the acre, which would readily sell fur ten cents a !lead. The planting, cultivating, harvesting and burying fur winter aid marketing, he is sure need 11 ' coat over one cant per head, ur fifty dollars fur the acre, enabling the cultl- eat.•r to smile at those who sneer at ',hieing the laud over four or five times to tit it perfeetly for the crop. Mr. Harris thinks that the ti -1d -garden will enable laudowuers at the East to com- pete succnafully with thine at the West who t.ocupy large fields of rich land with grain, by raising on highly prepared laud large crops of potatoes, unions, etc., which cannot be brought with profit from the West. A.YAltAal'n BLIP, The "Id and costly way of making asparagus beds by deep ti ruching is properly objected to in this w.•rk. Mfr. If. says that the first bed he ever !.hutted must have cont him in labor and manure at the rate of a thou- sands dollars an acre, with no better re- sults than are now. obtained with one- tenth of the expense. He now makes the rows four feet apart, with the plants two and a half feet apart in the row, for horse cultivation tooth ways. Planta thus treated throw up large shoots ear- lier in the season than plants in a thick bed, and give heavier returns. Malin BL W,'arzgLs.-The trouble with those who cannot raise mange' wurzel in the field is, they do not make 'he ground rich emouvh. They succeed well with their garden beets, which are essentially the same thing and require like treat- ment. Make a field -garden by giving the soil depth and richness, and they will succeed perfectly. One important thing is to thin the plants sufficiently. Mr. H. found it difficult to persuade a row hand to thin the young plants enough. He wanted to leave theft an inch apart, but they were thinned to a foot. In less thane month these plants, • foot apart, completely covered the ground iu the rows BEANS. - - These should he planted thick -about an inch apart in the now. This makes them ripen sooner The first dish of beans always ams from the children's garden, because they planted thicker. Then is a limit, `however, and if too thick, the orep will faiL Try dif- ferent distances. Poisons for lnsect-ria-Hellebore and Paris green era used. As soon as the young melons, squashes and cucumbers aypear, they are dusted with hellebore. Paris green, if used, must be sparingly apptiea to the young planta Mixed with water suitable fur potatoes, has killed many of the young squashes It must be weaker for the more delicate planta. A teaspoonful of the poison to ten quarts of waters is recommended. Meleettwg Flowers. If we have not already (rude selection of the seeds we wish to plant iu the com- ing warm spring days, it is best to stake all haste now. We should never at- tempt more than we mu accomplish ; and if we, with limited time, plant the more delicate varieties we often leave them sadly neglected. Thome that will thrive under the most. adverse circum- stance., and blossom into perfect beau• ties with proper cultivation, are the best. f am a great lover of the eld- fashiuncd morning-glory. I hate had vines twenty feet in height, covered each morning with hundreds of biossoms ; white, pink, purple and Iaveuder, strip- ed, ,nuttled and blotched bells shook and danced about its the morning air. The morning-glory thrives with little are, but given richt soil and •.sunny spot it amply repays all are. Sweet pear aro another of uiy favorites. They need deep, rich scil, and will begin to blossom unless your turkeys find them) in June, and continue until long aftst annuals are killed by frost. Phlox drummondii is an especial favorite that will amply repay all care bestowed. If there were all one could properly ewe for, it would be better to hare a few fine Rowers than half a dozen beds of strag- gling ones. A few crocus bulbs, a nar tow border of daisies, some gorgeous tulips, and then the roses, give -a supply of bloom from early spring until the an- nuals begin to blossom. Speaking of roses, I wish you could tee my rose hedge next June. There is an unsight- ly bit of wall on one side of the yard, and along this there is a narrow but thick hedge of roses,completely screened in summer and winter. There are no choice varieties, but they stake a beauti- ful sight while in bloom. .1 Slagle Trial Is all that ii needed to prove Poison's Neev ii.rez is the most rapid and certain remedy f• -r pain in the world.

The Interpreter gate it as his opinion that' cutting off the head of a rooster was m .res binding en the cunseienca of a Chinaman than bur g his name, or, as the iutetpreter exprets:d it, "the chicken is the worst." The Chin:me bit lieve that when the head has been sever ed from the body, in the resnrrec i•.n t'tey will re t be united, and the usati int), find himself with a chicken's head ani have the mortification of seeing his own head adorning the body of the chicken. The fudge at once ordered a rooster to be procured. It was brought into court acc.mpanied by the imple- ments of execution --a hatchet, a zinc pail, and a piece of plank. The witness grabbed the rooster's legs with his left hand, took the executioner's use in his right, and made a stroke at the neck of the victim. But the sic was not well directed. The neck was only cut about half through. He alas dumped into the pail, and the witness with muck dignity resumed his position in the box.. The rooster remained quiet a second or two until he fairly got hie legs under him. Then he made a spring and sheet up 5 or 6 feet into the air, landing upon the car- pet. This did not satisfy him, however• ter he continued springing about in the liveliest fashion, the blood squirting in every direction from the wound io his neck. The court made every possible effort to preserve its gravity, as became a court, but the situation was tee much for human nature. The crown att•nne; stuffed his handkerchief into his mouth, the court smiled audibly, and the police force formed into a hollow square and surrounded the rooster. He was finally captured, and after the Chinese witness oumpleted the execution the business of the court was resumed. Remarkable and True.

It was he who said "fam- iliarity should not swall.w up courtesy." Probably one-half of the rudeness of youths of this day, but later in life will develop into brutality, is due to the fail- ure of parents to enforce in the family circle the rules of courtesy-. The son or daughter who is discourteous 10 mem- bers of the family because of familiarity with them, is very likely to prove rude and overbearing to others, and very cer- tain to be a tyrant in the household over which he or she may be called on to pre- side. There is at this day undeniably among the rising generation a lack of courteous demeanour in the family:. Of all places in the world, Irl the boy un- derstand humo is the place where he should speak the gentlest. and be the most kindly, if there is a place at all , where courteous demeanour should pre-' rail. The lad who is rude to his sister, impertinent to hi. 'nether, and vulgar in' the house, will prove a sad husband fors a suffering; wife, and a cruel father to un- fortunate children. The place for po- liteness, as Helps puts it, is where we mostly- think it superfluous. A number of gentleman were talking about weather prophets -tltecomparative merits of !Wiggins, Vennor, e(•c., this morning.
