The clouds look black, the glaas 1 tow ; The soot falls down, the spaniels sleep, And spider from the cobwebs creep. Last night the bud went pale to bed, The moon in halos hid her head ; The boding shepherd heaves a sigh. For see, a rainbow spans the kij I The walls are damp, the ditches smell, Closed is the pink-eyed pimpernel : The squalid toads at dusk ar seen, - I -Slow ly craVling j'er the green Loud quack the ducks, the peacocks cry, The distant hills are looking nigh. Hark I how the chairs and tables crack I Old Betty's joints are on the rack ; And see yon rooks, how odd their flight, They imitate the glidihg kite. Or seem precipitate to fall. As if they felt the piercing hall. Bow restless are the snorting swine; The busy flies disturb the kine ; Low o'er the grass the swallow wings ; The cricket, too, how loud she sings 1 ' 'T will surely rain, I see with sorrow. Our jaunt must be put off to-morrow. Delicate Women. We cannot be far from right in say ing that almost all the mental and physical ailings of "delicate women may be traced to a defective educa tion. And those who are now en gaged in training girls, whether at home or in schools, cannot too seri ously consider the weight of responsi bility resting upen them. Upon their management depends much of future health, and consequently the. useful ness and happineas of those coiiimittt.l to their charge. As requisites to the promotion of bodily vigor, we will mention : A strict attention to personal clean liness, which children should be taught to cultivate, because it is healthy and right that they should be clean, and not because kIt would look so if they were dirty. lhe use of appartments that are well ventilated. Frequent and sufficient active bodi ly exercise in the open air. Entire freedom from any pressure upon the person by the use of tight clothes. A sufficiency of nourishment and digest idle food. And in the winter the use of such firing as is needed to keep up a health ful warmth. All these will tend to promote health, but we shall have no security against "delicate women" unless there also be added the cultivation of men til health. For this it is ncressary that girls should be taught to cultivate "mental purity and mental activity', bv sufficient and well regulated exer cise of the mind. Habits of benevo lence, constant, and cheerful gratitude should be inculcated, both by precept and example, to the exclusion of sel fishness. And above all should be strongly impressed upon the mind the necessity of the strictest integrity, which will lead to the abhorrence of every species of affectation, which is. indeed only a modified sort of deceit. Girls should also be early taught that rhey are responsible beings; respon sible to God for the right use of all the mercies bestowed upon them ; and that health is one of the chief of earthlv blessings, and that it U their duty to value and preserve it. But much is learned from example as well as precept; therefore, let no llfectation of languid airs in a teacher give a child the idea that there can be anything admirable in the absence of strength. We do not wish that girls should cultivate anything masculine ; for an unfeminine woman cannot b' an object of admiration to the right judging of either sex. But a fern tie has no occasion to affect to be femin ine ; she is fo naturally, and if she will but let nature have its perfect work, she will, mest likely, be not only seminine, but also graceful and admirable. The school studies of girls shouliT be so arranged that they may a fiord mental food and satisfaction ; other wise, as soon as the lesson hours are over, they will mostt likely turn with avidity to any i.onesense they can learn from foolish conversation, or to reading some of the trashy books of the d iy, to the injury of all mental and moral health, and the almost certain production of "delicate women." If you are conscious of the least feeling (S sntisf.ietio:) in hearing your self hVi'iken of as delicate, be assured it i a ilcgi t e of mental disease tl-.atj allows the feeling. If you ever sap- j pose that you gain your hubanu s sympathy by weakness, remember you might gain more of his steei:i. and satisfied affection, by strength. Fifty years ago, it was well aid that, "To a man of feeling, extreme delicacy in the partner of his life and fortune, is an object of great and constant con cern ; but a semblance of euch delica cy, where it does not really exist, is an insult on his disernment, and must ultimately inspire him with aversion and disgust." It is not for us to say how many put on the semblance of delicacy as a covering for idleness, or from any of the weak motives that prompt such an affection and happy will it be for the household of any one w ho can be arroused from such a piti able state. Could women onlv know how manv husbands are bankrupt because their wives are "delicate, how many chil dren are physically, mentally and morrily neglected and ruined, because their mothers are "delicate" how many servants become dishonest and inefficient, because their mistresses are "delicate" the list would be so appal ling, that possibly we might hear of an anti-delicate ladies association, for the better production of family happi ness and family economy. Rural Register. Prize Conundrums. Professor Anderson, the Magician, offered a gold watch each to the lady and gentleman who should offer the best conundrum, and the night appointed for the award brought together as many people as the Trtmont Temple could con tain; and, of course, there were some hundreds of them who had anxious hearts pending the teit of the pungency an I eflicae-y of t:.eir wit. The commute cf adjunction took their places on the plat form, alter ihe major performences were over, and !ome fivf hundred conundrums were read, many of which were rtceived with applausn. Jtlly go'd humor pre vailpd throughout, all hough the process of reading was a protracted one. It lasted until 12 o'clock, when the judges, among whom was '-The Autocrat of the. Break fast Table," retired to consult on their solemn verdict on the funniest of all pos-i-il'l cases. We select a few samples of the conundrums, to show on what stort of evidence they founded the verdict, which of course, as is thu case with all judicial decisions mvolving great public interests, was subject to the criticism of conflicting opinions: BY LADIES. Why is Mrs. Lincoln like Lazarus? Because she reposes on Abraham's bo som ! Why are the conundrums to-night like Stevens' guns on the 12th cf April? Because they are aimtd at Anderson's watch. Why are the audience guessing this conundrum like the leaders of the South ern Confederacy ? Because they will have to give it up. Why is General McClellan like a per son who has just captured a small insect which has disturbed his rest? Because he sees the wicked flea before him. BY CENTLEMEN. Why will Americans have more cause to remember the letter S than 'any other letter in the alphabet? Because it is the beginning of secession and the end of Jelf. Davis. Why is Prof. Anderson like David of old? Because he beats all (beat Saul.) Why is W. II. Russell, LL D., like low prices? Because he corresponds with the Times. Why is the rebels' proposition for Uncle Sam to ' let Vm alone" like a nigger in a coal-hole looking after a Brattle street boot ? Because- he. don't see it in that liht. Why is an owl in the daylight like the President of ihe United States? Be cause he i a-blitikin', (Abe Lincoln.) Why was the mother of Mo-es, of Bil le histoiy, unlike Dr. Russell of the London Times? Because she made a run for th bulrush, and he made a rush frou ihe Buil Run. W hy are the rebel leaders like turkeys ? When their ncksare stretched there will be a general thanksgiving. Why is Henry Ward Beecher worse than Brig!. am Young? Because he has uiiinnd more wr.:e.i than he cau support, and would like t. matry more. ' Why can't Gmj. H auregnrd have soup as well as McClellan? B. cause he can't get the pot o" Ma-:. (Potomac.) AWARDS. The watches were assigned to the au thors of thn following conundrums : Ladies' Prize, a Gold Watch "Why is it impossible for the government to grant the request of our Southern breth ren ? Because children in arms are nev er L-t alone." Gentlemen's Prize, a Gold Watch "Why is a water lilly like a whale? Because it comes to the surface to blow," How to Manage Fruit Trees. The seeds of riost kinds of fruit trees should be planted in the autumn. The seeds of the stone fruit peach plum and cherry should be cleansed from tho pulp a3 soon as ripe, and either planted, or put into sand imme diately. If seeds are left in the pulp until after fermentation nas com menced, their vitality will be injured if not destroyed. So, too, if permit ted to remain out of the ground all winter and become dry, they do not start so readily as if planted in the autumn. Cherry pits are sometimes put into a box an I mixed with sand and placed where the frost3 of winter will act upon them, and then planted in the spring. 1 di not like this plan, be cause the seeds start very early, some times before it is convenient to plant them. The little plants are very ten der, and so easily injured that many are destroyed by the removal from the sand to the seed bed. The safest way is to prepare the seed bed early in the autumn, scatter the seeds in rows upon the surface, covering lightly with earth, and leav ing spaces between the rows for the purpose of passing along to weed the bed. The rows may be six inches, or a foot wide. Some people sow broad cast, leaving no spaces, but in that case, if the bed is a large one, the pro cess of weeding will be somewhat te dious, and many plants will be tram pled upon and destroyed. At one year old, many of the seed lings will be of a suitable size to transplant to the nursery rows for budding. Plumb pits maybe treated tho same as the cherry. Teach pits are sometimes left in bar rels over the winter, cracked in the spring and planted in the nursery rows. This is not a good plan. Prepare a piece of ground in the autum, scatter the pits upon the sur face, cover slightly with earth, and the frost of winter will crack them. BU' the middle of may the plant will be coming up ; they must then be t iken up carefully, with a transplanting trow el md set ii the nurserv rows. The rows four feet apart, and the plants about nine inches apart in the toa By this method, the trouble and ex poseure of cracking by hand 13 saved ; the rows are full, and there are no gaps, w here the seeds refuse to veget ate, as is often the case where the stones aro carcked by hand in the spring, and the seeds planted in the nursery rows. Peach stocks should be budded the first year. Professor J. C. Holmes, in the Ohio Farmer. Ilclljlsocli Leaves Make a Bcantl ful D)e.

How the Japenese Restore Faded 1 lowers. A Nagasaki correspondent of the N. Y. Herald, writes : After a bouquet is drooping beyond all remedy by fresh water, the Japan -ees can bring it back to all its first glory by a very simple and sccm;ngly most destructive operation. I had reeeived some davs ago a delightful bunch of flowers from a Japanese ac quaintance. They continued to live in all their beauty for nearly two weeks, when al last they faded. Just as I was about to have them thrown away, the same gentleman (Japanese gentleman) came to see me. I showed him the faded flowers, and told him that, though lasting a long time, they now became useless. "Oh no, sir," said he ; "only put the ends of the stems into the fire, and they will be as good as before." I was incredulous ; so he took'them himself and held the stem-ends in the fire until they were completely charred. This was in the morning ; at evening they were again looking fresh and vigorous, and have continued so for another week. What may be the true agent in this reviving process, I am unable to de termine fully; whether it be the heat driving once more the last juices irto every leaflet and vein, or whether it be the bountiful supply of carbon fur nished by the charring. I am inclined, however, to the latter cause, 33 the full effect was not produced until some eight houri afterward, and as it seems that, if the heat were the principal agent, it n.ust have been sooner fol lowed by iiiblc changes.

The leaves should be steaped inraia water in broad opon bowls, and ex posed to the sun and air until all tho soft parts aro perfectly decayed. Tho water should not be changed, but the. bowls filled as the water evaporates. Some kinds of leares will be ready to clean in the course of a month or six weeks ; others wiill require a much longer time; but as it depends very, much on the heat of the sun, and tho age of the leaves when gathered, no precise period can be named. Insomo leaves the skin will peel off in small particles, in others it can be peeled off entirely, or it may decay altogether. The bowls should be examined oc casional! v. and the le:ivt ro:uv fnr cleaning removed to a basin of soft water; they should then be gently rubbed in the water with tho lingers till every particle of skin or green pulp is removed from the fibre ; should tins not succeed, the stronger leaves may be cleaned with soap and fl mnel. This will finish the skeletonizing pro cess. The fibers should t'icn be carefullv dried, having first pressed them in a soft towel, in order to remove tho moisture. They are now ready for bleaching, and may be laid awav'until a sufficient quantity is collected. ine liquor tor bleaching is prepared by pouring a quart of boiling water upon a quarter of a pound of chlorido ot lime in the powder. lh:s should be allowed to stand until cold, and tho clear liquor strained off, which may bo bottled for use. When wanted" fop bleaching, mix with cold water, in about the proportions of one part of the liquor to twenty of water, in shaK low dishes; lay the leaves in, and let . them remain till perfectly white, when they must be removed iiamedutely and dried in blotting paper. If this solution should not be strong enough to bleach them in ten or twelve hours, a little more of tho liquor must bo added; but care must bo taken not to use too much, or the finer Cbcrj will be destroyed. In the directing process, the Icavc3 invariably come ou their stems; they may be mounted when bleached, either among branched stalks previously dried and bleached, or on fine wiro covered with white tissue paper. The leaves should be gathered when fully gr iwn, or the fibre is nor. suffi ciently strong, and some Ieav s dissect much better than others. Anion" these are the poplar, maple, pear, ivy, holly, magnolia, kc ; the seed ves-ib of the large Oriental poppy, the thorn, apple and henbane, dissect well, and many smaller seed vessels, after they have shed their seeds, may be dried, . and then bleached without stccr.ingin water, as first directed. The Incinccrlty or Social Life. Who is the prophet that shall uncover the abysses of our acted lies, and pur adequate shame on our mutual imposi tions? Smiles on our faces, with envy and jealousy underneath ; cordiality iu our grasp, with no connecting netvi be tween the finders and the heart; defer ence in our professions, with no suitable esteem, no genuine respect, no sacred sincerity; invitations issued with a fraud lurking in their politeness; gt tun? the company together by one fah-tbood ; greetings of indiscriminate? and extrava gant welcome, receiving them with an other; fashions ruaJe cp cf composite illusions, ornamenting thesu with ar.uiher; ceremonies of elaborate, make-believe, sustaining their mock dignity with an other; and dishonest regrets at the fare well, dismissing them with another who will dare to affirm these do n.t enter ap pallingly into the staple of what we call civilized and elegant life ? When is tha rugged, truth fpeaking, Christian tim3 coming, which shall tear open and rend apart these guilty illusions, plant tho communion of soul with scul on some pure and just foundation, and restore the social world to its primitive and upright simplicity ?
