There's Worte Enough to do. he blackbird early leaves its nest To meet the smiling morn, nd gathering fragments for its nest From upland wood and lawn. The busv bee that wines its way Mid sweets of varied hue, At every bower would seem to say "There's work enough to do." The cowslip and the spreading vine, The daisy in the grass, The snowdrop and the eglantine, Preach sermons as we pass. The ant. within its cavern deep, Would bid us labor too, And writes upon its tiny heap - "There's work enough to do." To have a heart for those who wiep, The sottish drunkard win ; To rescue all the children, deep In ignorance and sin ; To help the poor, thn hungry feed ; To give a coat or shoe, To see that all can write and read " There's work- enough to do." The time is short tfi world is wide, And much has to be done ; This wondrous earth and all its pride Will vanish with the sun ! The moments fly on lightning wings, And life's uncertain, too ; We've none to waste on foolish things " There's work enough to do." The planets, at their Maker's will, Move onward to their cars, For nature's wheel is never still Progressive as the stars ! The leaves that flutter in i air a a i One solemn truth to man declare " There's work enough to do." Who then can sleep when ail around Is active, fresh, and free? Shall man creation's lord be found Less busy than the bee? Our courts and alleys are the field. If men would search them through, The beit the sweets of labor yield, And -" work enongh to do." Agricultui:. A California pnper devoted to mining and scientific pursuits, thus tacitly acknowledges that, after all, agriculture is the source of the real wealth of the people : " Heretofore it required nearly the entire product of our mines to feed and clothe us : but now, by ireans of cur increased agricultural yield, wc Raven, surplus of gold for investment, whereby our material wealth is being rapidly increased." Agriculture has been aptly termed the steward which spreads the daily table of mankind. And what a table is being presented lo us of the Pacific const ! a demand to which the valleys of Oregon must by and-by respond. Let us plow wider and broader ; let us multiply our granaries, and heap them to the Brim let the idle loiterers in our city streets lay hold of the plow and tiie reaper, and transform their' keble limbs accl pale cheeks into stalwart .arms and sunburnt faces; let them drop the yellow grain into the earth, and by-and by they will reap a golden harvest, richer and more easily gained than the miner wrests his glittering grains from the flinty rocks of our mountain heights. Southern Ixdustiu. The State of North Carolina ha3 1,500,000 acres of swamp lands that remain public property, sitnjJy because, under the old regime, iio one supposed them worth owning. These are of course by far the richest lands in the State, and most of them are covered by timber, now inaccessible, which would of itself repay the cost of drain age. The State has now devoted these lands to the cause of education; and companies are being formed to drain and sell them in small tracts to settlers and cultivators. In many cases, these swamps have been rc ceivinr and retaining the wash of the higher lands around them until they are "rich as mud1' to the de th of ten and even twenty feet, and .would crow heavy crops for success sive years of the most exhausting plants hemp, cio'oacco, Indian com without seeming at all impover ished. Such swamps are common throughout the South, and have been very Tartly and slightly improved. A Keceipt Worth One Thou sand Dollars. The Ohio Cultiva tor says : Take one pSund of sal-poda and half a pound of slacked lime, put them in a gallon of water and boil twenty minutes, let it stand till cold, then drain off and put in a small jiig or jn ; soak your dirty clothes over nignr, or until they are wet through, then wring them out and put on plenty of sonp, and in one boner of clothes well covered with water, add one teacup of the washing fluid, boil half an hour briskly, then wash them thoroughly through one suds, rinse, and your clothes will look bettor than the old way of washing twice before boiling. This is an in valuable receipt, and I want every poor woman to try it. I think with a patent wash tub to do a little rub bing, a washerwoman might take the old bible and compose herself on a lounge and let the washing do itself. Antidote for Liquor.

Three cups cf rye meal, three of corn meal, a little salt, one small teaspoonful of grated nut meg and ground cinnamon, mixed; then add as much miikas will make a thin 1 atter; bake on the griddle; serve hot. Potato Cake. Buil with care four good potatoes, press them in a dry towel, peel and mash them smoothly while hot ; when milk warm, stir in a spoonful ot butter and a little salt; kne d in as much flour as will make a dough like rolls, add a wineglass of good yeast ; set it fo rise, then make them into small cakes and lay on tins. Bake a nice brown. Succotash. Cui off the sug-ir-corn from tli2 cobs, put the cobs into cold water to boil for an hour, then take out the cobs, and put into the water fome Lima beans and the corn, let it boil thirty minutes ; there should be at first only water enough to boil the cobs and make the succotash, as too much loses the flivor of the cob ; then stir in a spoonful of Imtter, a cup of cream, and a little salt. Let it stew for five minutes, dish and serve hot. Choice Salad. A salad, such as is generally liked, is made with the yolk of an egg, much oil, a very little vinegar, salt to the taste, and with mustard and pepper sparingly and carefully mingled. The oil should be very slowly poured upon the egsr, (ar.d mustard, if used,) and elabor ately worked in with a spoon. Feed it with oil so Ion" as it will take. If you beat long enough ou can add a great quantity of oil before the mass will lose its creamy, rich consistency. When, in spite of all beating.it begins to be oily, you have oil enough. Liaison Salter. This celebrated sance, for thickening and enriching soups, is made as follows : Pour the soup, boiling hot, on the beaten yolks of two or three fresh eggs, from which the small, tough substance found in it, and called "the thread, should be re moved, nor should the soup be suf fered to boil after the eggs are added, as it is then apt to curdle. Or else break the yolk of an egg with three spoonsful of cream, beat thera up in the tureen, and pour the boiling soup upon it. This is a liaison against w hich scandal cannot utter a syllable. "Sauce Royale.,t This celebrated sauce, which is ratlier a relish than a sauce, is made as follows: Cut a slice of white bread, and stew it in white broth, until it is quite thick then take it off the fire, pound in a mortar the yolks of two hard boiled eggs, and half a dozen almonds rc- duced to paste with the breast of a cold, roast fowl : mix this with the ejnis and bread, and pound them oil together with a little pepper and salt. Add enough cream to make it of the proper consistency, and simmer the whole over the fire, stirring it all the time without letting it boil. This style of sance may be greatly varied, by the exercise of a little ingenuity. Mali n a Pic. Take cold mutton or veal, chop it very finely, then to one pint of minced meat stir in the yolks of four well beaten egs, the juice of one lemon, and the rind thinly grated, two small onions very finely chopped, half of a grated nutmeg, two large spoonsful of mushroom catsup, a very little cayenne, and salt to the taste ; mix this well together, and cut up into very small pieces a half quarter of a pound of butter, and stir through it ; then line a dish with good paste, and put this in to bake until it is a nice brown ; serve with a nice gravy made of the bones of the cold meat. Doughnuts. Take one pint of warm milk, cut into it one fourth of a pound of butter, four eggs well beaten, one pound and a half of brown sugar ; stir the sugar into the e"irs, grate half a nutmeg ; mix these all well together thicken this into a good soft batter with sifted flour, add a little salt, beat this well, then add a wineglass half full of good brewer's yeast. When quite light, have ready some boiling lard, and drop in the doughnuts. Fry a nice light brown, put them in a cullender while hot to drain, then sift sugar over them. Rich Croquets fur Meats. Wash and scald a quarter of a pound of rice put it into a saucepan with half a tea spoonful of salt, some very thinly pared lemon-peel, a tablespoonftil of butter ; on this pour one pint of cold water, half a pint of new milk, and stir it well for a moment only, then et it in a hot place to cook slowly; when the rice becomes quite soft re move it, and stir in the welNbeaten yolks of four egg?1; do not allow this to cook, but keep it hot w hile stirring in; then pour this on a tin sheet or fiat surface; spread it out equally, and let it coo!; then divide it in portions two inches long and one inch wide, roll these into scrolls or oblong balls; dip each one into bread crumb!, and fry tlu-m a nice brown serve hot. Red Cement. "Red Cement," em. ployed to make glass adhere to metal and one of the most useful kind is made by melting five partsof black resin, one part of yellow wax, and then gradually stir in one part of yellow ochre or Tenitian red, in fine powder, and previously well dried. This cement requires to be me! ted before use, and it adheres better if the objects to which it is applied are warmed. Lime cement is of great adhesive power, and is made by slacking some freshly burned lime with a little boiling water. The white of an egg should be intimately and thoroughly mixed by beating with its equal bulk of water, and the slacked lime be added to the mixture so as to form a thin paste. This sets very hard, and resists boiling water. Why don't fish dealers do their part in charitable matters. Hecanse thy arc ee!(l)fish men. SPECIAL NOTICES. D: ult noma H Lodge Ko, 1, A r. o.

In place of a coarse, rustic, flushed face, she had a soft ruby complexion of almost marble smoothness, and instead of twenty-three she really appeared but eigh teen. Upon inquiry as to the cause of so great a change, she plainly told them that she used the Circassian Halm, and considered it an invaluable acquisition to any Lady's toilet. By its use any Lady or Gentleman can improve their personal appearance an hundred fold. It is simple in its combi nation, as Nature herself is simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in drawing impurities from, also healing, cleansing and beautifying the skin and complexion. By its direct action on the cuticle it draws from it all its impurities, kindly healing the same, and leaving the surface as Nature in tended it should be, clear, soft, smooth and beautiful.

Box '223, Hudson NVY C2i:ly A Canl From The American Watch Company Of Wnltham, Mas. rpiIIS COMPANY BEG LEA YE TO IN 1 form the public that they com menced operations in 18"0, and their factory now covers four acres of ground, and has cost more than a million dollars, and em ploys over 700 operatives. Tl ey produce 75,'H)0 Watches a year, and make and sell not less than one half of all the watches sold in the United States. The difference between their manufacture and the European, is briefly this : European Watches are made almost entirely hi hand, and the result is of necessity a lack of that uniformity, which is indispensable to correct time-keeping. Both the eye and the hand of the most skillful operative must vary. But it is a fact that, except watches of the higher grades, European watches are the product of the cheapest labor of Switzer land, and the result is the worthless Ancres, Lepines and so called Patt nt Levers which soon cost more in attempted repairs, than their original price. Common workmen, bovs and women, buy the rough separate parts of these watches from various facto ries, polish and put them together, and take them to the nearest watch merchant, who stamps and engraves them with any name or brand that may be ordered. How American Watches are Made. The American Waltham Watch is made by no such uncertain process and by no such incompetent workmen. All the Com pany's operations, from the reception of the raw materials to the completion of the Watch, are carried on under one roof, and under one skillful and competent direction. But the great distinguishing feature of their Watches tnc fll':t tIl;lt their several parts are all made by the finest, the most perfect and delicate machinery ever brought to the aid of human industry. Every one of the more than a hundred parts of every watch is made by a machine that infallibly repro duces every succeeding part with the most unvarying accuracy. It was only necessary to make one perfect watch of any particular style and then to adjust the hundred inan- chines necessary to reproduce every part of that watch, aim it follows that every suc ceeding watch must belike it. 'the Company respectfully submit their watches on their merits only. They claim to make A Better Article for the. Money by their improved mechanical processes than can be made under the old-fashioned handicraft system. They manufacture every grade of watches, from a good, low priced and substantial article in solid silver huntng cases, to the finest chronometer and also ladies' watches in plain gold or the finest en ameled and lcvvcled cases ; out tne luaispcn sable requisite of all their watches is that thev shall be eroou time Keepers. 11 snouia be remembered that.except their singte low est grade named "Home Watch Company, Boston." all watches made bv them are tully warranted by a special certificate, and this warrantee is cood at all times against the Company or its agents.
