is enhaneed in value. Every dollar

nately there are men with ability to
purchase lands who always take into

pleasure, as well ' as profit, they may
derive from a homestead. And even
men who are supposed capable of al-

their own or anybody's pleasure to in-

he uses his eyes, thinks of -1,v1at he sees,
and studies the possibilities of his

not to ,be any uniform rule for farm

Bending a Valentine to thePope.
A case has just transpired which is
probably. without a parallel in the an-
nals of St. Valentine. : Six young. 19 -
dies in an English boarding-school—
two of theni hailing from the north—
purchased a vety pretty valentine,
which they sent diyeeted to. 'His Holi-
ness the Pope, Rohm!. Accompanying
the valentine was a' letter, signed by all
the young ladies; stating that they. -had
seen his Holiness' condemnation of
chignons and long dresses, a,nd had been
so impressed by it that they had given
up both. The young ladies' waited
patiently; and in due tinie received a
letter from Cardinal Antonelli acknow-
ledging the receipt Of the valentine
and epistle, which had afforded His
'Holiness the Pope much -gratification.
The letter was written in French. The
young, ladies were delighted to get an
espistle from such an exalted prelate.
However, another post brought back
their valentine,' with the Pope's bless-
ing beautifully written upon it in Ital-
ian. His Holiness had not beeu accus-
tomed to such souvenirs and thought it
would be doubly valuable returned
his benediction. The young ladies
were immensely please0, and are .11(
having the documents lithographed for
preservation—the originals to be given
to the girl who suggested the affair. Jr
may .be added that neithet of the
young ladies has eithdr taken down
her chignon or shortent,d her dress one
eighth. of an inert, the whole matter
10.ving been entered into as =a jol?
although it may seem to some that fer
a few 'girls to hoax His Holiness Pope
Pius IX., and his great Lard Cardinal

high quait(rs.

How ;ITO PREVENT SMUT.—Many of
our cereal grains are liable to a disease
known„as smut, which is caused by the.
growth of a cryptogimous parasite that.
fastens upon the grain in the ear, just
after the bloom is past, and turns the.
seed into a man of blackish dust.
This parasite is produced from minute
spores or seeds, that seem 'to adhere to
the seed grain, and if not destroyed be-
fore sowing,. it will in somestrange
and unaccountable way -reach up to the
heads of the grain, .and there become
,developed into activity. In order to
prevent tkis >it becomes necessary to de-
stroy :the sports while ,they adhere to
the seed gram. It is well-known that
salt acts as a destroyer 'of all ftimgold
life, so that by *steeping Seed grain 'for
a short time in strong brine,s or splink-
ling a mild. solution of sulphate' of cop-
per over it, the vitality. of the sporeeof
smut attached will be effectually de-
stroyed. Brine is alwp.ys safe to use,
while kIphate of .ecpper is dangerous;
it being a deadly poison; and a- small
portion of the grain impregnated with
the latter might accidentally get within
the reach of poultry or pigs, or even by
-chance get mixed with what is to be
-madeinto flour. When brine is used
it is a good plan to 'spread the grain,
after steeping, on. the barn floor. and
pbey, with a party, penetrated 5,000
feet from the entranee—nearly a mile'
—and found no end. They saw many
ehambers in which immense .tounges
of limestone hung from the roof, in
pla-:es almost touching the floor, --and
other stalaetites and stalagniites aboun-
ded, as in the Mammoth Ca-ve of Ken-
tucky They found trees of burnt saga
brush showing that the Indians had.
been there as far as they went; and
the ,guileless sons of the soil told them
that they had penetrated five days jour-
ney into the cavren, found a lake full
offish; and yet saw no end to the suc-
cession of the lofty chambers stretch-
ing out before them. Lo ! Was always
a very poor Indian and given to lying.
Mi. 1Viurphey's party got ont of ma-
terial for torches, lost their way, and
were glad enough to grope their *ay
