Approved March 3, 1So7. There was a lawyer on Cape Cod, a long time aso. the only one in those and for aught I know at present. lie was a man well to do in the world, and what wa3 somewhat surprising in a limb of the law, averse to incur litigation. One day a client came to him in a yiolent rage. 'Look here, Squire,' said he, 'that blasted shoemaker 'down to the Pigeon Grove has gone and sued me for the money for a pair of boots I owed him.' Did the boots suit you?' 'Oh, yes 'Well, then, you owe him the money honestly?' 'Of course. 'Well, why don't you pay him?' . 'Why, because the blasted snob went and sued me, and I want to keep him out of the money if I kin 'It will cost you something 'I don't cara for that. How much do you want to go on with?' 'Oh, ten dollars will do 'Is that all? Well here's an X, so go ahead and tho client went off very well satisfied with tho beginning. Our lawyer next day called on the shoemaker, and asked him what he meant by instituting legal proceedings against M. 'Why said he, 'I knew he was able to pay, and I wa3 determined to make him.; Ihat s the long and short of it. 'Well said the lawyer, 'he's always been a good customer to you,-1 think you acted too hastily..:. There's a trifle to pay on account of your proceeding, but I think you had better take those five dollars and call it square . 'Certain, Squire, if you say so, and glad to get it , was the answer. So the lawyer forked over the V and kept the other. In a few days hi3 client came along and asked him how he got along with the case. . 'Rapidly cried the lawyer, we've non-suited him! He'll. never troublo you! ' . ' . .. 'Jerusalem! ? that's, great! I'd rather gin fifty dollars than had him got the money for the boots . ; - THE raOITSAXD D0LLA2 SHAT7L. . 'See!' said a sweet faced lady to a young gentleman, with whom 5he was walking past one of our fashionable churches. 'See!' said she, pointing to a lady who was entering the consecrat ed building, that lady has on a thousand dollar shawl!' He looked at the lady, who for mere ornamentfor it had not the qualities of warmth, could make so prodigious an outlay for a single piece, of garment. But, say her poorer neighbors, she is very charitable; she is secretary to an association for. relieving the poor. This made me think better of her. Meeting a friend, he told him of what ho had seen giving him also a discrip tion of the lady, and of his pleasure in knowing that so wealthy a lady had a charitable heart. 'Wealthy! wealthy! Charitable heart! My dear sir, she carries - all she owns on her back, except her lap-do. Her husband, poor devil, is bankrupt, and no wonder. . Charitable?. Yes!, a poor child came shivering, and a3ked alms; the maid stated the case to the mistress. 'Well, Bridget, it is hard, but I cannot help her.- Tell her we Lave nothing to give her now Bridget wai going down stairs to send tho little girl away as hungry as when she' came; but she was wanted.

In fact, the true nan will not only feel self-respect, but will show this feeling also. - - :"What! seem haughty?'' you qne?y? No, by no means.

Ihey are not in common use in several di3-f trict3, and therefore unless pain3 bo taken to provide seedsomewnaiusioru the season of planting, there may t o a los3 of a part of the season, or even an entire disappointment., vuu aa uui seasons, aUO'N.

After making due provision for se curing a supply of seed, ! or actually procuring it, the next thing which those unacquainted with the cultivation of the Lima bean may profitably do, is to inform themselves as to its cultivation. As this kind of information my bo obtained from neighbors or from booKi on gardening, we do not think it neces sary to enter upon full details. There ar, however, two points, in tho mode ceivethe attention which is due to them, about which we will very briefly give some directions. , . . u . As the Lima bean 13 a nativo of a much warmer climate that of Peru it requires a long and warm sea;cn for its full maturity. It is therefore im portant that it shoull have " an early start, and in order to give it this, it is a good. plan to take a "sod ol tome thicknes3,; and after cutting it tip into squares of six or eight inches,' t plant one or two beans, on the rcverse side, in each square. -These pieces of re versed, sod may then , be put -into a hot-bed, or placed in a south, window of a cellar, or set'in a ; well-sheltered spot on the south side of a house, be ing covered up or secured from;, frost and cold during nights;; A3, sbpn as settled warm weather .comes, ,, these squares may bo set into the part of the garden where tney win ocxa-ix inusu sun, heat ana sneiter. jn iu.a way the crop will be a week, or two curlier, and the latter portion of itmoro nearly matured than it would otherwise 'hayo been. " ' ' - '" - - !: ; ; ) The other point, often neglected, consists in shortening in the stems at the height of. 6 or -7 feet. If allowed forun, they will extend to double that length, sone tying strings from pole to pole to admit of their doing so. If not shortened in, pods continue to I e form ed until late in the season," which never mature; whereas, if this is done, the earlier pod3 receive 'all the nourish ment, are richer, and ripen earlier. ; t 1 1 1 ' 1 11. .
