J . ImlfiKtidenl. Tin: cuuim:k "XniTthi: wolves. Tollcf Kolstad w;is u cooper, and a very skillful cooper he was .said to lie. lie had a little son named Thor, who was as fond of his father as his father was of hint. Whatever Tollef did or said, Thor was .sure to imitate; if Tollef w:is angry and liung a piece of voodat the dog who used to come into the shop and bother him, Thor, tlimkinir it was u manly thing to do, lhmganothor pieeo ut poor Hector, who ran out whimper itt": through the door. Thor, of course, w:us not very old be fore ho had a corner in his father's whop, where, with a small set of tools which had boon especially made for him. he used to make little pails and - buckets and barrels, which he sold for lixcaiidtcu cents apiece to the boj's of the neighborhood. All tho money earned in this sway he put into a bank of tin, made like a drum, of which his mother kept tho key. When he grew up, he thought, he would bo a rich m in. Tho last weeks before Christmas are, in Norway, always tho briskest season i'l all trado; then tho farmer wants his liorMis shod, so that he may take his wso and children to church in his fine, hwan-shaped sleigh; he wants bread and cakes made to last through tho holidays, so that his servants may bo able to amtts-c themselves and his guests may be well entertained when they ca'l; and, above all, ho wants large tubs and barrels, stoutly made of beech htaves. for his beer and mead, with which he pledges every stranger who during the festival happens to pass his door. You may imagine, then, that at Christmas time" coopers aro much in demand, and that it is not to be won- derod at if sometimes the' aro behind hand with their orders. This was un foiluuately the case with Tollef Kolstad nt the time when the strange thing happened which I am about to tell you He had" been at work since the carl dawn upon a huge tub or barrel, which hail been ordered by Grim licrgliind, the richest peasant in the parish. Grim was to give a large party on the follow ing day (which was Christmas eve), and he had made Tollef promise to bring the barrel that Fame night, so tliatlio might pour the beer into it, and have all in readiness for the holi days, when it would be wrong to do nnv work. It was about ten o'clock at night when Tollef made the last stroke with his hatchet on the large hollow tiling, upon which every blow resonnd od as on a drum. He went to a neigh bor and hired from him his horse and Hat sleigh, and was about to start on his erraudwheu he heard a tiny voice call ing behind him: "Father, do take me along, too!" "I can't, my bo v. There mav be wolves on tho lake, to-night, and they m light like to eat un little boys who stay ul of bed so late.'' . out, ' Hut 1 am not afraid of tnem, lather. I have my whip and m' hatchet, and Til whip them and-eut them." Thor here made" some .threatening f!ourihcs with his weapons in tho air, indicating how he would give it to the wolves in case they should venture to approach him. Well, come along, you little rascal," said his father, laughing, and lecling proud of his boy's dauntless spirit. You and I aro not to bo trifled with when we are angered, aro we, Thor?" No, indeed, father," said Thor, and clenched his little mittened fist. Tollcf then lifted h"m up, wrapped him warmly in his sheep-skin jacket, and put .him between bis knees, while he himself seized the reins and urged the horse on. . It was a clorious winter night. The snow sparkled and shone as if sprinkled with starry diamonds, the aurora bore alis Hashed in pale, shifting colors along the horizon, and the moon sailed calm ly through a vast, dark-blue sea of air. Little Thor shouted with-delight as he saw tho broad expanseof, glittering ice, which they we're about to cross, stretching out before them like a pol ished shield of steel. Oh, father, I wish we had taken our skates along, and pulled your barrel across on a sled," cried the boy, ecstat- That I might have done, if JL had had a sled large enough for the barrel," reDlied the lather. 4,But then we should have been obliged .to pull it up' tho hills on the other side." The sleigh now struck the ice and ghot forward, swinging .from side to side, as the horso pulled a little uneven ly. Whew! how the cold air cut in .their jacci. How it whizzed and howled in the tree-tons! Hark! A hat was that? Tollcf instinctively pressed his bo more closely, to hint. Hush! his heart stood still, while, that of tho boy, who merely felt the Tcflex1 shock of' his father's agitation, hammered away the inoro rapidly. A terrible, long-drawn howl, as from a chorus of wildfar-away voices, came floating away over the crowns of the pinc-trccs. " What was that, father?" asked Thor, a little tremulous.. It was wolves, ray child," saidToll ef, calmly. " Are you afraid, father?" asked the boy again. - " No, child, 1 am!jiot afraid of one wolf, riorpf ton wolves; djutif.f.h(jy are in a floelrbf twenty 'or tliirty.Mh'ey arc dangerous. And if they scent our track, as probably they will, 'they will bo on us in five minutes." How will they scent our track, fath- err"' "They smell us in tho wind; and the wind is from us and to them, and then they howl to notify their comrade, so that they may -attack us in sufficient force." " Why don't we return home, then?' inquired the boy, still with a tolerably steady voice, but with iinking courage. 'They arc behind us. Our only cliance is to reach the shore before they overtake us." The horse, Finding the presence of wild beasts, snorted wildly as it ran, but, electrified, as it were, with the sense of danger, strained every nerve in its dibits to reach the farther shore. Tho howlsn."Jw came riearer-rand(Jnear-er, r.ifd they rose with afrightfril dis tinctness in the clear, wintry air, and resounded again from the border of the forest. " Why tlon't 3-011 throw away the bar rel, father?" said Thor, who, for his father's sake, strove hard to keep brave. "Then the sleigh will run so much the faster." 44 If we are overtaken, our safety is in tho uarrcl. J'ortunatoly.-it islarge enough for two, and it has no cars and will bt close to the ice." Tollef was still calm; but, with his one disengaged arm, hugged his little son convulsively. Now, keep brave, ray boj" he whispered in his car. "They will soon bo upon us. (ive me your whip." It just occurred to Tollef that ho had heard that wolves were very suspicious, and that men had often escaped them by dragging some small object on the ground behind them. He, therefore, broke a chip from one of the hoops of the barrel, and tied it to the lash of the whip; just then ho heard a short, hun gry bark behind him, and, turning his head, saw;i pack of woives, numbering more than a dozen, the foremost of which was within a few yards of tho sleigh. He saw the red, frothy tonguo lianging out of its mouth,-and ho smelt that penetrating, wild sine'il with which every one is familiar who has met a wild betist in its nativo haunts. While encouraging the reeking, foani llecked hor.sc, Tollcf, who had only half faith in the experiment with tho whip, watched anxiously the leader of the wolves, and observed to his astonishment that it seemed to be getting no nearer. One moment it seemed to be gaining upon them, but invariably, as soon as it reached the little chip which was dragging along the ice, this suddenly aricsted its atten tion and immediately its speed slacken ed. Tho cooper s hope begun to revive, and he thought that perhaps there was yet a possibility that they might seethe morrow's sun. 15ut his courage again began to ebb when he discovered in the distance a second pack of wolves, larger than the first, ami which, with terrific speed, came running, leaping and whirling toward them from another di rectiour And while this terrible dis covery was breaking through hisa'most callous sense, he forgot, for an instant, tho whip, tho lash of which swung under tho runners of tho sleigh and snapped. The horse, too, was showing signs of exhaustion, and Tollcf, seeing that only one chance was left, rose up with his" boy in his arms, and upsetting the barrel on a great ledge of icu, con cealed himself and tho child under it. Hardly had he had time to brace him self against its sides, nressing his feet against one side and his back against the other, when he heard the horse giving a wild scream, while the short, whining bark of the wolves told him that the poor be:ist was selling its life dearly. Then there was a desperate scratching and scraping of horseshoes, and all of a sudden the sound of gallop ing hoof-beats on tho ice, growing fainter and fainter. The horse had evidently succeeded in breaking; away from the sleigh, and was testing his speed in a race forJife. Some of the wolves were apparently pursuing him, while tho greater numbor remained to investigate the contents of the barrel. The howling and barking of these furious creatures withoutrwas . now in cessant. Within the barrel was pitch darkness. " 44 Now, keep steady!" said Tollef, feeling a sudden shock, as if a wolf had leaped against their improvised house with a view to upsetting it.T He felt him3elf and the boy gliding a foot or two over the smooth-Ice, but there was no further result from the attack. A minute passed; again there came a shock, and a stronger ouo than the first A long, terrible howl followed this second failure. The little boy. clutching his small cooper's hatchet in one hand, sat pale but determined in the dark, while with the other he clung to his father's arm. 44 Oh, father!" he cried, in terror, "I feel something on my back." The father quickly struck a light, for he fortunately had a supply of matches in his pocket, and saw a wolfs paw wedged in between the ico and the rim of the barrel; and in the same instant he tore the hatchet from hisison's hand and buried its edge in the ico. (Then he handed tho amputated paw to Thor, and said: ' Put that into your wallet, and tho Sheriff will pay you a reward for it. For a wolf without paws couldn't do much harm." While ho was yet speaking, a third assault upon the barrel lifted ono side of it from the ice, and almost upset it. Instead of pushing against "the part nearest the ice, a wolf more cunning than the rest had leaped against the upturned bottom. You can imagine what -a terrible uight father and son spent together in this constant struggle with tho vora cious beasts, that never grew weary of attacking their liiding-place. The fa ther was less warmly clad than, the son. and, moreover, was obliged to sit on tho ice, while Thor could stand erect without knocking against the bottom of the barrel; and if it had not been for the excitement of the situation, which made Tollers blood courso" with un wonted rapidity, it is more than prob able that tho intense cold would havo made him. drowsy, and thus-lessened his power of resistance. The warnith of his body had made a slight cavity where he was sitting, and whenever ho remained moment still his trousers froze fast to the ice.- It was only the presence of his boy thatinspired him with fresh courage whenever hope seemed about to desert him. About an hour after the flight'of the horse", when ""five" or six wolves' paws had been cut off in the same manner as the first, there was-a 3ull in the attack, but a sudden increase of the howling, whining, yelping and barking noise without. Tollef concluded that the wolves, maddened by the smell ol bloody were attacking' their wounded fellows; and as their howls seemed to' come from a short distance, he cau tiously lifted one side of the barrel and peered forth; but in the same instant a snarling bark ran.jrlgbjuiii,.uis ear,, and twopaws'were thriist into the opening. Then came a howl of pain and another paw was put into Thor s wallet. " Hut hark! WJiatjs that?. It sounds like a sorr, or marc'likc'a hynin. The strain, cmes nearer djneafcr, .re sounding from Bio'.iatain to Mountain, floating; peacefully through the" pure' and stdl air: " '- Who kiiow how near I am mini endinr; So quick,! time doth paxsvay.' Tollef, in whoso breast hope again Was reviving, put his car to the ice, and beard distinctly the tread of a horse and of many human feet JIo jistencdjfor a minute "or more, but could shot ;di cover' whether tho sound was coming' any nearer. It occurred to him that in all probability the people, being un armed, would have no desire. to cope with a large pack of wolves, especially as to them there could be no object iu it. If they saw the barrel, how could they know that there was anybody under it? He comprehended instantly that his onlv chance of life was in join ing those people, before they were too i far away. And, quickly resolved, ho lifted the boy on his left arm, and grasped tho hatchet in his disengaged hand. Then, with a violent thrust, he flung the barrel from.overdiim, aud ran in thu direction of the sound. The wolves, as ho had inferred, were lacer ating their bleeding comrades; but the moment they saw him, a pack of about a dozen immediately started in pursuit. They leapctl up against him on all Hides, while he struck furiouslv about . him with his small weapon. Fbrtnnatc- i), iiu uiiu au:w j sice 1 peg-(iu ui.s uouus, and kept his footing well; otherwise the combat would havo been a short 1 one. His voice, too, was powerful, and his shouts rose high above the howling of the bea-ts. He soon perceived that he had been observed, and ho saw in the bright moonlight six or eight men running toward him. Just then, a; perhnps in his joy hTs" vigilance whs for a fraction of a second relaxed, he felt a pull in the fleshy part of his "right arm. He wns not conscious of auy sharp pain, and wa3 astonished to see tho blood flowing from an ugly wound. But he only held his boy tho more tightly. wiiuu ue iougiiL aim ran wuu uie strength of despair. Now, the men were near. He could hear their voices. But his brain was dizzy, and he saw but dimly. 'Hullo, friend; don't crack my skull for my pains!" some one was shouting close to Ids ear, aud he lei his hatchet fall, and fell himself, too, prostrate on the ice. The wolves, nt the sight of the men, had retired to a safe distance, from which they watched the proceedings, as if uncciiaMi whether to return. As soon as Tollcf had recovered somewhat from his exhaustion and his loss of blood, ho and his -boy were placed upon a sleigh, and his wound was carefully baudaged. Ho now learned tluft his rescuers were on their way to a funeral, which was to take place n the next da, but, on account of the distance to the church, tliey had beeu obliged to start during the night. Hence their solemn mood, and their singing of funeral hymns. After au hour's ride they reached tho cooper's cottage, and were invited to rest and to share such hospitality as the house could oiler. But when they were gone, Tollef clasped his sleeping bor in his arms and said to his wife: 4,lf it had not been for him, you" would havo had no husband to-day. It was his lit tle whip and toy hatchet that saved our lives." Klcven wolves'-paws were found in Thor's wallet, and, ou Christmas eve, ho went to the Sheriff with them and received a reward which nearly burst his old savings-bank, mid compelled hi3 mother to buy a new one.

It surrenders a good many times in its later days, only to stiffen up more per pendicularly again for a renewed con test with the inevitable. Some of tho birds which arc always with us leave their haunts in the woods iu these in tervals when the weather relaxes to forage near the house and barn. They make a reconnoisance along tho more traveled roads to see what bits of straw they can lind to thresh out, or to gather the kernels spilled from tho Farmer's sleigh on its way to or from the mill. I have seen the crows par ticularly active in this way of late, as if their winter fast had made them bold, and they could endure their cn'orccd hunger no longer. Tho crow, if anybody does, knows pretty well what he is about, and ho keeps his eyes and mind on the alert when ho has a mission near the human habitation. 1 think I can. see already that the belief in spring has had its ef fect upon him. although the vicissi tudes of the late winter have given him an early and rigidly compulsory Lent, which he is trying to terminate just as ours begins. Not long after I was watching his and two of his brethren's movements the oilier day, a pair of bluejays came into the yard here, and both seated thcmselvos on the low limb of a tall elm not far from my win dow. They were pretty specimens, with exceptionally soft aud rich plum age; and if they 'wcre"not making some calculations for the summer soon to come, then they were looking very wise and discoursive over matters that seemed not a particle less significant. They aro rare visitors .at so close a ransro, but the proximity of a corn crib' to their familiarly-selected -perch may account for tho unusual r invasion. On the 3d of March, late In the day, I was surprised to find within a few feet of me as I opened the door-yard gate leading to tho highway, a plump little red squirrel, who, with his mate." occu pies a hollow tree near by. He is a. constant sumaier guest, but ho had not shown his head for months" until that moment He knew. me at sight as well as I knew him, and just turned back a l.ttle on the packets of the fence which he had made histrQttiug4raob until I hail.. achieved the passage" thcough it. His foresight had' served to keep bin fat and sloek. for no squirrel could look as ho did who had not put up rations proportioned to thu strength and severi ty of this uucommon. season. There was a luster in his b'cady eye, too. that spoke of good heart and good cheer, a'nil a cordial relish in his enjoyment of his new observations that assured me all was well with him and his. house hold. But why should he have selected the 3d of March for his tribute to the season? Did ho wish to see the very hist of tho Hayes quadrennial, or was he awaking himself betimes for the in auguration of Garfield? How gracefully at ease this little rodent deports himself, as if an infinite leisure were his, and no carping con cerns could be permitted to mar it! The evergreens near bjf were tho only ob jects that gave any sensible hint of summer attire, and yet the summer must somehow have entered into his thought. His confident step -Betokened that thovworst of our lourney to it is now ondod, and that a""new' order of .things is at hand. To see him. in the bright expectant attitude he had so sud denly assumed, was a veritable token of spring a foretoken, of .summer " Annihilat lntr all that's xaade To a fjTera thought in a Rften shade."

Plotting In the Spring. . j . . 4lDo wo plow too ranch.-" was the question put by one of our readers a fcty weeks ago, who then proceeded to give his experience In the preparation of land for corn without plowing, on which corm had b'oen grown the year be fore. Another implement ,v."a.i us;d. and the results, as stated by our corres pondent, proved very satisfactory in saving time and laborand also n the outcome of the crop. This experiment is suggestive and no doubt arrested tho attention of numerous readers', and it is not improbable that somo of theni may adopt Uie "new departure" in the prep aration 'of their land for the .spring crops. The preparation of the soil for the re ception 01 seed, is thft most important of all mechanical operations on the farm, but the time, the desired depth, and the manner of doing-the work de pend upon various circumstances, as the klml of crop to which it is intended to devote the land, the character of tho sod, etc There Is no question but that the time and labor of plowing some fields for a spring crop, are unnecessary, or in other wonls that fields which havo been well tilled during tho preceding season may be put into good condition for the reception of seod bv the use of implements which greatly economize time .anil toil. Bnt. of "conr-e. this method cannot be followed at random. Kverv farmer knows that a great deal depends upon the season as well as the kind or character of the soil. It some times happens that a light or naturally friable soil has become packed and hard by beating storms and that plowing it is indi-pciisable in order to put it into proper condition for a crop, while, un der other circumstances soils of a much heavier texture tuni over like tin ash heap; so that in thin, tw in other th.nirs, the -judgment of the .farmer mut govern in the methods employed in car rying on the operations of Ins farm. Afow words here upon spring plow ing are not out of place. Sandy or gravelly soils may be plowed or re plowed in the spring without running much risk; but it is diuereut with clay soils, aud the ru'o should govern that clay is to be plowed iu the fall or win ter. To pursue a different course in volves a rik. especially with undraincd land. A clay loam which is under drained and "has been well cultivated may be treated more like a lighter oil; but even then prudence is required, for clay soils arc sensitive, and are often injured by starting the plow too soon after a heavy rain, showing tho effect in the yield of the crop. .Stil)', ad liesivo soils, whether clayey or loamy cannot be plowed to advantage while wet or verv drv. However, Mich soils are improved by frequent plowing, as this reduces them to that finely com minute:! condition which is favorable to tho growth of plants. All tillable land has inoro or less clay ia it, aud if worked when too wet, "the result is hurtful. It is in this way that disap pointment occurs in the yield of rich alluvial lands, which fail" to produce abundantly because the clay is thus rendered comparatively useless. It may seem superfluous to some of our readers to offer suggestions that aro well understood by them. It must not be forgotten, however, that many of our later "readers arc young farmers, or men who havo had little or no experi ence in tilling the soil. Nor is it out of olaco to occasionally remind fanners of longer experience that much care must be exercised in plowing or re-plowing land in spring. In no small degree does the success of the season's crop depend on the fanner's prudence in this regard; nor does the matter end with a single season, and this is one tliimr that is frequently lost sight of at tho time a fanner may bo turning over his land. While land is too wet to plow, whether in fall or spring, to turn it up so that it wi'l bake is to injure it for several years, entailing much un necessary loss both of yield of crops and of labor to restore it to a natural condition of fertility. Prairie Farmer. (.'raftiiig-tirariiiig-Wax. Tho season for grafting is now here and may be continued until the end of May, provided the grafts arc carefully preserved that is to say, kept in au ice-house or iu a cold cellar, after the weather has become warm, to pi event their growing. We havo set grafts tho last day of May with as much success as nit any other lime, and we have known ofgraftimr being done up to the L'Oth of June. When understood and it ought to be an easy thing to learn anyone can do his own grafting. Yet duo care must be taken in all thu de tails to insure growing. Stocks or limbs to be grafted, not over two inches in diameter, should bo out off at the distance of four inches. A lino saw should be used. Incline the saw so that the stump, if perpendicular, will shed the lain. The bark must be uninjured. With a sharp knife smooth off the sawed stump. Take a case-knife, which is as good as any, place it across the heart of the stock, and force it down with a wooden mallet. We use a very narrow screw-driver for keeping open thn split. Shape thu scioa wedge-fashion both ways, keeping the bark intact. Wo make a shoulder as far up as the scion is shaved: it is not so strong, but better insures growth. The inside of the bark of both scion and stock must meet or' cross, in order that tho sap of the two may coriimiugle. Set tho seion at a slight finale spread ing from each other. When the stock is small and only one scion inserted, place a piece of wood on the opposite side of corresponding thickness. If the slit does not close up sutlioiently, tie round a cotton string to keep it tight upon the graft. Cover with wax every part of th cut woo'l and a't'l. In three weeks' time go over tho grafts and re wav if needed. It is air and rain get ting in that destroy. Where the limb to be grafted is from two to four inches, over, it should be cut say six inchc from the tree, and from four to six scions may be inserted. . Where there is only grafting to be done on one's own premises we make the wav, as we have often published it, as follows:.oMr parts of rosin, one part ot beeswax and in part of beef tallow. Melt them together in a sk J'ct (which is the best,)1 or a tincup, and stir well. It should remain iu the vessel and use as needed. Apply with a light wooden paddle or spatula. Twenty or thirty scions can be waxed with one warming up. When much grafting is to done, a little lire for heating the wax should be made on the spot, between two bricks or stones. Formerly we bad considerable graft ing to do upon our own premises, which we attended to personally, and found it to be one of our pleasantcst pastimes. 'Jcnnintotcn Telegraph. Manuring the Garden.
