At tile end of the villa,ge a pretty
umble of sights met my eyes. A pump; a
shrine with the pictare of a red saint in
it ; house all balconies aud outside
stairs, and with strings of golden maize
harecing round ; a road sleeting down
to tho cemetery ; a brook trickling awIty
in various direetious ; a dazzle of suu-
shine zigzagaing through the wet, inter-
lacing leaver ; and, under the trees, a
rs
group of villagein their many -colored
pet,tioats and broad -brimmed hats,ralc-
ing up the chestnuts that had. fallen
during the night. They talked together
very fast in their quaint, clipped Italian
patois ; but they woslced very slowly in
a languid, spiritless sort of way, as if
such unwonted exertions wearied them
greatly. One figure among them, how-
ever, seemed to be working a ith a will.
'I could see et darting hither and thither
iu a quick, eager way --a little, childish
figure in some darlt kind of dress, and a
quantity of- soft, fair hair, knotted up
behind. Suddenly the' knot of hair
turned round, and I saw instead, the
sweet, flushed, flower-like face of the
old Marchese's F'rona.
She threw down her rake when she
saw mo. A chorus of voices rose round
her.
• Oh, do not go yet, bell' signuola-
not just yet. You teach us hew to work.
You work yourself like all the angels.-
Yee see, signore,' (this was addressed
to me, confidentially, by an °lel fellow
in shirt sleeves and a velveteen waist-
coat,) the bell' sigutiola comes from a
country where chestnuts are as scarce
as gold; so sheelmows how to value
them.'
He was evidently chuckling to him-
self over the superiority .of Lombardy
to Venetia. • .
But the bell' Signuola left her rake
lying on the grass.
I must go now, my friends,' she said
in her pretty, slow, hesitating Italian.
And I may never be able to come
again. But you will remember, will
you not, what I have told you about the
poor people who live on the mountains,
and who would be glad very often for a
handful of those, very chestuuts which
you leave rotting on the ground ?'
And then she walltod away by my
side, just AS 11 I had been sent out to
fetch her home.
I could not help doing that for once,'
she said half apologetically to me. 'But
I may not be able to go again. He
might not like it, you know.' '

think not. No man, however affable,

J Singular Story.
- -
A sttange story is reported from
Spain. A. detachment of Alfonsist
soldiers recently discovered, in a seclud-
ed part of a mourItain chain, a cavern,
which was inhabited by robbers, who
had taken advantage of the civil war in
order to ply their criminal avocations.
An alcove' was attached to this subter-
ranean dwelling, the door of which the
soldiers broke open. They wore aston-
ished to find the apartment so decently
furnished, and provided with books,
flowers, and even a piano. In an easy
chair sat a venerable old man. The
soldiers interrogated him, but obtained
only incoherent, replies. It hoe; been
ascertained, from the confession of one
of the robbers, that the old man was the
cashier of a banking firrn at Bourges ;
tnat they leted broken into the bank and
stolen the safe, and taken the eaehier
with them, in hopes that he 'would as-
sist them to open the safe. During the
retreat, which was marked by many ad-
ventures, the intrepid old man succeed-
ed in evading the vigilance of his guar.
diens for a short tints'and secreted the
safe in it pled°, where he would' be able
to recover it afterward. When the
booty was iniesed, and the robbere fail
-
to have revealed to them the place
where it was concealed, they revived
the proceedings of the fairious cite/fears
by roasting the feet of their victim in
order to eitort a confession. But the
inflicted tortares bad it elifferbnt effect.
The man got road; and it nttg with the
object of restoring him to reason that
the robber§ bestowe1 the utmost atten.
tions ott hire, in hopes that When he
recovered his reason he would reveal to
thorn the place wher4 the eafe was con-
cealed.
Intelligent Farming',
has alwaye appeared to us that the
farmers of America cultivated, or pre-
tended to cultivate,too great an area of
soil and thus of necessity waste much,
lime and labor. This is no doubt 'of
the abundance of land on this conti-
ilea, which is largely out of proportion
to the popnlation as compared svith the
thielrly inhabitated countries of Europe.
In Great Britian twenty acees is con-
sidered to make a farm of good exerase
size, and from this tho thrifty farmer
will produce as mueln with lees toil-
some labor, than most of our farmers
will raise on it farm of a hundred or
even 200 acres. In the ono case every
nook and corner of the lot is thorough-
ly cultivated, In the other Lase the
works over a great breadth of ground
iu a very loose and careless manne,
trusting that extent of area will coin-
pensonate for the want of close and
careful wet/Icing on it smaller specie.
We have beard it argued that the eons
in this country is not as fertile as that
of Europe. On the contrary, we be-
lieve that generally the soil is bettor,
and only requires eroper manageuient
to make it more isroductive. In a late
Canadian paper we notice that Mr.
Ezekiel Smith, of Grimsby Township,
Ontario, raised this year on 24 acres of
ground 375 buslictis of apples, at 80
cents ; 200 leyshels of peaches, at an
average of $2 per bushel -,13 of pears,
at $2; 80 bushels of cherries, at $1 ;
3 bashels of plums, at $1.50 ; 250
bushels of grapes, at $2 ; 30 bushels of
beans at $2 ; 100 bushels of onions, at
$1; 200 bushels of beets, at 50 cents;
225 bushels of carrots, at 25 cents; 600
bushels of turnips, at 25 cents; 175
bushels of potatoes, at 75 cents ; 00
bushels of cumunbers, at $1 ; 50 bush-
els ef tomatoes, at $1; and 100 bushels
of buckwheat, at $1 ; beeides 7 tons of
hay, at $12 per ton; 3,000 water-
melons, at 121 cents each; and 3,000
muskinelone, at 121 cents each ; mak-
ingin all 3,000 bushels, besides the hay
water and muskmelons, amounting al-
together to the value of 3,492. And
remarking on this subject, the Mon-
treal Journal of Commerce says : "If the
cultivators of the soil all over the Do-
minion were to use the brains which
