Eomantlc Ad rent arcs of a Stare Boy.
Oae warm afternoon in the summer of
18(52 a half-dozen little 6lave boys "were
plajiug carelessly about a cotton-press
about sixteen miles from Newbern, Is . C,
when one of the smallest and youngest of
them overheard something that attracted
his attention and 'which soon had the
effect to stop the play. From the con
versation between two adult slaves he
learned that all of them were bo be taken,
in a few days, back into the interior part
of the State, out of the way of the Yankee
invaders. This set him to thinking. A
council of war was held by the little fel
lows. Then was made one of the most
fervent speeches in favor of liberty that
was ever uttered by a Southern slave.
The possessor of the sharp ears had the
reputation of a mischievous and head
strong boy among hia playmates, but now
they listened to him with a kind of won
der. With boyish enthusiasm he rapidly
sketched a plot for an escape to the Yan
kee lines. The time was fixed. They
were to start the next afternoon. But
about three o'clock the next morning he
heard the booming of the guns at the bat
tle of Newbern. lie knew precisely what
they meant. Ilising stealthily he roused
his companions in the plot, but at
the last moment their hearts failed
them. Nothing daunted the little fel
low, " not yet twelve years of age,
with such clothes as he had on him
and with a supreme trust in himself and
in " JIassa Lincoln," started off in the
direction of the canonading. He took a
circuit around the town, and came in at
the rear of the Union lines about three
o'clock in the afternoon. The distance
wad about twenty miles. He says now he
don't remember that he was tired. On
the journey he was revolving in his mind
a magnificent scheme of going back
stealthily to organize a company of boys
on the old plantation, with which he pro
posed to join the Union forces. He was
taken on board of the gunboat Chasseur,
where he was soon advanced from the
position of officers' mess-boy to the more
honorable one of powder-boy. Until 1864
he was engaged in various capacities as a
boy in the Union army and navy. Then
he came North, and obtained the position
of olfice-boy for the late Henry J. Ray
mond. "While he was so employed in the
Times office he revisited the old plantation.
His father, mother, and all his relatives
were dead, but an affection for the old
place carried him back. He was heartily
welcomed, and by none more so than the
widow of his lormer master, Col. Streets,
to whom he made a present of $23. The
family was still wealthy in land, but at
that time sadly in need of ready cash.
Col. Streets was killed in the war.
This was the first of several visits to
his old home. During his residence at
the North he had come in contact with
many public men, and had cultivated the
art of public speaking. This accomplish
ment gave him a great ascendency over
the minds of his old friends. On his visit
in 1872 they insisted for a iong time that
" they would nominate him for Sheriff, and
it was only his inability to qualify on ac
count of age that enabled him to silence
their entreaties. He is regarded by them
as a patron, and scarcely a colored man
in his native county, to whom he is not
personally known, ever comes to New
i'ork without a letter of recommendation
to David, as he is familiarly called. He
has secured positions of one kind and
another for over fifty of his people from
the old North State.
The above is the life-story, briefly told,
of David F. Nelson, who yesterday re
ceived a notification that he had passed
very successfully an examination for a
$1,000 clerkship in the New York Post
oflice. He is a little over twenty years
old, and has hdd the post of doorkeeper
for the Postmaster since 1870, when it
was secured for him by Mr. Thurlow
Weed. He is entirely self-educated. A
scrap-book in his possession contains, be
sides a mass of valuable statistics con
cerning his race, a large selection of mis
cellaneous literature culled from the
writings of Whittier, Alice Cary, and
other writers of equal merit. This morn
ing he was overwhelmed with congratu
lations by his fellow-employes of the
Po9toffice on the success he had attained.

The Question of Taxes at the Corners
Blgter a art Pollock Instigate m. Meet
Ins; to Protest Against High Taxes.
C'ONrKDRiT X Roars, 1
(Wlch to In the State ut Kentucky,) -ilarch
29, 1874. )
The taxes at the Corners hev bin for
some years terribly high, and this spring,
when the time come to pay em, the peo
ple murmured. We sed it is too bad to
waste so much money on taxes when
there is so much likker in the land wich
money wood buy; and the niggers and
others at the Corners wich don't stimu
late sed it wuz a pitty that so much uv
their substance shood be taken in taxes
uv wich they got no good.
Bigler and Pollock, onto whose heads
lite cusses, ez yoosual, took up the cry
und ekkoed it. Ef we'd had the sense uv
a yerl in calf we'd hev dropt it the moment
Joe Bigler pickt it up, for when did he
ever jine us except to bring us to confoo
shin ?
But we did ekko Joe's words Bascom
in pertikeler and we determined to hev
a meetin to consider the question of taxes,
and to ascertane whether or not we
coodn't redoose em in some way.
And George Washinton Bascom, the
idiot, furnished the wood to heat the hall,
and the taller candles to lite it; thus
furnish in the whip with wich to scurge
his-elf.
We met at early candle-litin, and I wuz
made Chairman, uv course. I stated to
the mcctin that taxis had risin to a pint
that crushed us. I felt myself that ef they
cood not be lessened 1 shood bo com
pelled to quit the Corners
V Thank Kevin!" involuntarily ejacke
lated Deekin Pogram.
" Not that I pay any taxis myself, but
they so grind the citizens ez to make
keepin me a serious niitter."
Arid I continyood by invitin any one
to say wat they hed to say.
Bascom rose and remarkt that taxis hed
got to a rooinous pint, and he pledged
hisselfto yoose all possible diligence in
a-scertainin the coz uv the high taxis, and
. unrelentin viggelance in rootin out the
coz when he hed found it. He moved the
adopshen uv the follerin resolushen:
Resolved, That it in the rense nr this meetin that
the inert-ae, year by year, ut taxaahen in the Cor
ners hez bin so great ez to eggecite the most serf-
ous alarm, and that we pledge ourselves to yooee
all pomible means to ascertane the coz and remeve
it forthwith.
The resolooshen was yoorianimously
carried.
Then Joe Bigler rose, with Pollock be
hind him, a eggin him on and supportin
him.
Joe remarkt that he hed notid the reg
ler increase uv taxes each year with
alarm, and he hed made some notes, feci
in that he cood show how it wuz.
And the cuss pulled out uv his breast
pocket a lot uv papers.
Here," sed he, " I hev figgered up
me and Pollock wat the county poor
house costs us, and I find it's terrible.
Six thousand dollars is the sum totle.
Doorin the yeer old Spiggins hez bin
liken there, and his wife and his ideot
daughter, for Spiggins spent all his time
and money at the bar uv our esteemed
friend Bascom till he got to be so demoral
ized ez to be incapable uv pervidin for
hisself. Then Thompson's wife and chil
' dren are there too. Thompson, yoo will
remember, got drunk one nite at Bas
com's, and fell off. the bridge on his way
home and wuz drownded. Then there's
the Huggins children and Sammy Smith's
children, all uv 'em provided for by taxa
tion. Let's see," sed this disturber, " Bas
com, yoo hev Smith's forty akers, bevn't
voo?"
Then Pollock he riz.
I don't agree with Mr. Bigler," sed
this hory-headed deceever, "in ascribin
the high taxes to our public charities'.
Uv course the poor-house costs money,
but that is only a small part uv it. It
the criminals that squeeze us. I hev
made a few figgers wich will show how it
is - You all know the circumstances uv
the Jlackentosh matter. Sam Macken
tosh got drunk at Bascom's, and went
homef and, Mrs. Mackentosh nor bavin
supper ready, Samuyooel split her head
opll with U a. Sammy wuz in jail
eighteen months, wich we hed to pay
fur he wuz tried three times and finally
hung. It cost us, on a ruff calkelashun
about six thousand dollars to hang Mack-
ltosh, countin from the time he got
drunk at Bascom 's, exoloosiv uv the cost
uv berryin his wife and takin keer of his
Children since.
"Then yoo remember the Magrath
trouble. Sim Magrath and Tim Ed
son got drunk at Bascom's."
" "Why do you perpetooally refer to our
esteemed friend Bascom?" shriektl, seem
that O. W. wuz turnin ez pale ez he
cood turn.
" I reely don't mean to offend nobody,
but I must be historikelly kerrect. Sim
Magrath and Tim Edson got drunk at
Bascom's, and from there they went to
Allen's place, and quarreled with Allen,
and sot his barn on fire. The Judge
woodent take into account the fact that
they wuz drunk, but sent em to the peni
tenshary, wich cost us five or six thousand
more. They sed they woodent have done
it ef they hedn't bin drunk.
" Then Sandy Johnson, who drawd a
knife on Pete Lark in and carved him.
They wuz both a drinkin at Bascom'p,
when "
'I pertest agin all this kind o' talk!"
shrieked Bascom, wno by this time seed
what they wuz drivin at. " I pertest."
" It won't do, O. W.," retorted Bigler;
" fax is fax, and we must hav em out I
insist that our charities do cost more than
the criminals, Mr. Pollock to the contrary
notwitLslandin. Does Mr. Pollock remem
ber the Paddlefords? Old Paddleford wuz
ailuz drinkin at Bascom's, then Seth, his
oldest boy, got into it, and then Andy,
and finally the old woman herself, and
the children are all at the poor-house. I
say "
" Will Mr. Bigler pretend to say that
the Paddlefords cost the country ez much
fz the single case uv Artomus Jenkins,
who, after he got drunk at Bascom's,
stabbed Abslum Parkins? "
" Wat did that amount to," sneered Big
ler, " compared to the cost the county
wuz put to in carin for John Otis, who, at
Bascom's bar, dropped down in a fit and
became "
" Oh bosh," retorted Pollock, " I in
sist "
"But," I sed hastily, "all our taxes ain't
for criminals and paupers, is they ? How
about yer roads ? "
" We ain't spent a dollar on the roads
for six years," retortid Pollock.
''And the skools?"
" All that the county hez paid for skools
from the time the first settler struck here
ain't ez much ez we paid for the hangin'
uv Sam Mackentosh. We hev bin very
economikle in the matter uv roads and
skoo's I insist "
"And I insist," sed I, "that this thing
ome to an end. Thi3 meetin' is ad
journed." " All rite, Parson," said Bigler, and he
and Pollock walked off, lafiln hilariously.
After them two hed gone we re-organized
and sot some time in silence.
"Parson," sed Deekin Pogram, "wat
shel we do?"
"I hev written a resolooshen or two
wich kiver3 the point," sed I, and pre
sented em, ez follows :
Resolved, That taxes aint ez high after all ez they
mite be, exceptin uv course them ez is imposed by
the tyranniclc, consolidated government at Wash
ington. Resolved, That rich taxes ez may reeult from the
abuee nv the ordinary comforts uv life by our fellow-citizens
we shel pay cheerfully, feelin it to be
our duty to bear our sheer uv the burdens laid
onto us.
Resolved, That onr confidence in our fellow
townsman, G. W. Da-com, is unabated.
These resolooshens wuz passed yoonan
imusly, and Bascom invited the entire
meetin over to his place to take suthin.
Thus wuz the danger to the Corners, de
vised by them two wretches, Pollock and
Bigler, happily arrested.

Draining Wet Tlaces-Early.
-Sowing Grain
There are but few prairie farms but
have low places, commonly called sinks,
in which water collects and stands for a
long time, saturating the surrounding soil
sometimes for long distances. Many of
these are easily drained, either partially
or wholly, from the surface. Many may
be drained in the most perfect manner by
boring from the center of the pond to a
stratum of gravel if such exist beneath.
This, however, can best be accomplished
in the summer when the sink is dry. We
have now to deal with present drainage
along the surface.
In many cases this may be accom
plished to a great extent by plowing a
deep furrow out and back to a lower level,
and splitting the balk as deeply as possi
ble. If this is not sufficient, another
furrow worked deeply in the bottom will
leave the subsoil in such a state that the
water will easily percolate through the
loosened soil, or a subsoiler drawn by two
or four horses will loosen the soil still
deeper. As the water is drawn off a
channel may easily be continued to the
deeper parts of the pond. In this way in
many instances the whole field may be
made ready for plowing from a week to
ten days earlier than it otherwise would
be. At all events it will save going
around many places that three years out
of four are waste places and harbors for
weeds.
Especially when a field has been fall
plowed with the intention of sowing to
wheat, oats or barley will this surface
draining be found valuable in enabling
you to sow the land early.
Wheat, especially, seldom gives a re
munerative crop unless sown as soon in
thes pring as the soil can be worked. In
deed, some of the best crops we have ever
raised have been Sown upon a thaw in
February, the ground freezing solid after
ward mudded in as it is called. If,
However, this is not done in the spring,
while yet there is firm frost underneath,
say when the earth is thawed to the depth
of three or four inches, the seeding must
not be attempted until the frost is out of
the ground and the earth not only settled
! but friable. For, soon after the frost is
out, and before the soil becomes firm,
crusting and often serious baking is sure
to ensue when the soil is at all heavy;
and in any case it is an exceedingly bad
practice.
In seeding either for wheat or any other
small grain we should always use a drill
if it is to be procured, for these reasons
if no other that the seed is more evenly
distributed, and if it becomes necessary to
break the crust after the crop is up by
harrowing, it can always be done with
fur less injury to the crop than if sown
broadcast. 7 So, also, if the crop needs the
roller to compress the soil after the plants
i appear above ground the team will do
j less injury by trampling, since they may,
j in a great degree, be guided to walk be
tween the narrow rows of grain. Western

Buckwheat Cakes. Take four table
spoonfuls of hop yeast, four cups of tepid
water, nearly four cups of buckwheat flour,
sifted, and a little salt Measure the flour
after 6iftingor they will be too thick.
Mix in a stone jar, and if desired for
breakfast let them stand over night in a
warm place to rise, and when light fry as
other griddle cakes. Leave about a tea
cupful of batter in the jar, and add water,
salt and flour as before, omitting the
veasL The second and third mess will
be better than the first. Use no saleratus
in these cakes. If they should become
sour cleanse the jar thoroughly and start
again with yeast. Be 6ure to keep the
jar in a cool place after the batter begins
to rise, or it will become sour. These
cakes are delicious with nice butter and
honey. Cor. Rural New Yorker,
USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.
Ginger Snaps. One cup boiling molas
ses, pour into your flour; four tablespoon
fuls butter, one tablespoonful of soda and
one of ginger.
To Make Cookies. One egg, one cup
sugar, ono cup sour cream, two-thirds cup
butter, teaspoon soda, mix soft, roll thin,
and sift sugar on them before baking.
Soft G&oeii Bkead. One egg, one
cup molaases, one cup batter, one cup
sour cream, one tablespoonful ginger
and one of soda; flour to make quite stiff.
Toads are capital helpers in taking
care of vine patches. Lay boards be
tween the rows to shelter them in the day
time, and they will make a carnival of
the bugs at night.
Ccp Cake. Five cups of flour, mixed
with three tablespoonfuls of baking pow
der, one cup and a half of milk, three
eggs, nutmeg or lemon juice. Add cur
rants, if you wish.
Fkcit Cake. Ten eggs, one and one
half pounds sugar, one and one-half
pounds butter, one and one-half pounds
Hour, c ne pound raisins, stoned and
halved, two pounds currants, one tea
spoonful of soda, citron cut small, one
tablespoonful of cinnamon, teaspoonful
of cloves, one nutmeg. Bake slow.
To Cleanse Tapestry Cakpets. Beat
and sweep them thoroughly, remove all
grease spots with ox-gall mixed with
water, put on with a scrubbing-brush,
then wipe the whole carpet with a mop or
cloth wrung from a weak solution of ox
gall in warm water. This removes the
unst and brightens the colors.
A nEFREsnrxo drink in fevers is thus
prepared : Boil an ounce and a half of
tamarinds, three ounces of cranberries and
two ounces of stoned raisins in three
pints of water till the water is reduced
to two pints. Strain, and add a bit of
lemon peel, which must be removed in
an hour, as it imparts a bitter taste if left
too long.
Carolina Cake. Whites of eight eggs,
two cups of sugar, two-thirds cup butter,
one-half cup milk, two and one-half cups
flour, two teaspoonfuls of cream tartar,
one teaspoonful of soda. Beat the sugar
and butter to a cream, add the milk, beat
he whites to a stiff froth, add a little of
the flour and whites, beat well, add more
flour and eggs, and so on till all is mixed.
Bake well ; flavor to taste.
Farmers' Frctt-Cake. Soak three
cups of dried apples over night in warm
water; chop slightly in the morning, and
then simmer two hours in two cups of
molasses. Add two well-beaten eggs, one
cupful of sugar, one cupful of sweet milk,
a quarter of a pound of butter, one dessert-spoonful
of bi-carbonate of soda and
flour enough to make a rather stiff batter.
Put in spice or other flavoring to suit
your taste, and bake in a quick oven.
A lady correspondent of Hearth and
LJome gives the following directions for
"making a wedding cake: One pound
brown sugar, one pound butter, one pound
flour, twelve eggs, one cup molasses, six
pounds Valentia raisins, three pounds
currants, two pounds citron, one ounce
cinnamon, one ounce mace, one ounce
cloves, one gill brandy or you can use,
if you prefer, one cill whisky and one
gill lemon-juice, and the grated rind of
two lemons two nutmegs ; add sufficient
flour to dust the fruit.
Coral Cake. Make a batter precisely
like that used for starch cake. Then to
three tablespoonfuls of the batter placed in
a separate dish add one teaspoonful of
the following coloring preparation dis
solved in a tablespoonful of boiling water:
One drachm cochineal, one drachm alum,
one drachm soda, pulverized and well
mixed together. Any druggist will pre
pare it for five cents, and there will be
sufficient for several large cakes. We
frequently use it to color a part of onr
frosting, as it has a very pretty effect when
placed on white. Firmer' Union.
PEAcn Jelly. For a table ornament
nothing is more elegant. Dissolve in
sufficient water one ounce of isinglass ;
strain it ; halve one dozen large peaches,
and -pare them: make a sirup of one
pound of fruit sugar and half a pint of
water. Into this put the peaches and ker
nels;, boil gently fifteen minutes, when
place the fruit on a plate, and cook the
sirup ten minutes longer; add to it the
juice of three lemons and the isinglass.
A pyramid mold is very pretty for this.
Fill part full of jelly, and when set, put in
one-quarter of the peaches. Place on ice,
and let it harden ; add more jelly, harden,
etc., until full. Let the base of the mold
be jelly.
Chinese Varnish. The Chinese are
said to make a varnish, by beating
together fresh blood with quick-lime,
which is extensively used as a coating for
wooden articles, which they wish to make
completely water-tight. Yon Scherzer,
who first introduced this substance
to the notice of Europeans, says he has
seen in Pekin wooden chests that had
been varnished with it which, alter
a journey over Siberia to St. Petersburg
and back, were still sound and perfectly
water-tight. Even baskets of straw, used
for the transportation of oil, are made fit
for the purpose by means of this varnish.
Pasteboard coated with it becomes, both
in appearance and firmness, like wood.
Articles requiring to be absolutely imper
vious are varnished twice or at the most
three times by the Chinese. The prepa
ration has been tested in various ways
both in Europe and Australia; and, al
though it gives to vessels covered with it
a rough, ugly, red appearance, its use is
recommended as a sure means of making
wood impervious to water.
. Why a Child Lores Sugar.
The craving of children for sweets is
well known to be one of the most imperi
ous of their appetites. It ha3 reference
probably to that ceaseless activity which
especially characterizes the age of child
hood. It may be that sugar performs in
their systems the part enacted by fatty
substances in the bodies of adults. As it
undergoes oxidation is burnt up, circu
lating with the blood it may be the
source of the power which enables them
to keep in motion from morning to nights
Besides this, it is known that it renders
easier and more perfect the digesnvn of
the albuminous food upoc which their
growth depends. In respect to these of
fices it is, therefore, nearly essential to
their well-being. And yet how strong,
for generations, ha3 been the prejudice
against sugar! Under what difficulties
and in the face of what discouragements
and protests have our children obtained
the luxury ! Heme and Scfiool.
Diseases of trie Blood.
" The Blood is the Life." W hen this source
is corrupted, the painful and sorrow-producing
effects are visible in many shapes, lhe
multifarious forma in which it manifests
itself would form subjects upon which I
might write volumes. But as all the varied
forms of disease which depend upon bad
blood are cured, or best treated, oy such med
icines as take up from this fluid and excrete
from the system the noxious elements, it is
not of practical importance that I should de
scribe each. For instance, medical authors
describe about fifty varieties of skin disease,
but as they all require for their cure very
similar treatment it is of no practical utility
to know just what name to apply to a certain
form of skin disease, if you know how best to
cure it. Tbcn a?ain I might go on and de
scribe various kinds of scrofulous sores,
fever sores, white swellings, enlarged
glands, and ulcers of varyiDg appearance ;
might describe how virulent poison may show
itself in various forms of eruptions, ulcers,
sore throat, bony tumors, etc. ; but as all these
various appearing manifestations of bad blood
are cured by a uuiform means, I deem such a
course unnecessary. Thoroughly cleanse the
blood, which is the great fountain of life, and
good digestion, a fair skin, buoyant spirits,
vital strength and soundness of constitution
will all return to us. For this purpose Dr.

It is the vital principle of the Pino Tree, obtained
by a peculiar process in the distillation of the tar, br
which its highest medicinal properties are retained.
Tar even in its crude state has been recommended by
eminent physicians of every school. It is confidently
offered to the afflicted forthe following simple reasons:
I. It cubes, not by abruptly ttofping the cough
but by dissolving the phlegm and assisting nature to
throw off the unhealthy matter causing the irritation.
In cases of seated consumption it both prolongs and
renders less burdensome the life of the afflicted sufferer.
a. Its healing principle acts upon the irritated sur.
face of the lungs, penetrating to each diseased fart,
relieving pain, and subduing injiainmation.
3. It purifies and enriches thb blood. Positive,
ry curing all humors, from the common PiMPta or
ruption to the severest cases of Scrofula. Thousands
nf affidavits could be Drodnced from those who have
felt the beneficial effects of Pine Tkeb Tar Cordial
