Going to Church, First Time. Tho Knickerbocker tells us an amusing anecdote of 1'eter G., a hale, hearty, hard working, bluff, blunt, open-hearted farmer, | who thought more of looking after his stock and farm, than of visiting a house of wor ship on tlio Sabbath day. A near neighbor who was very opposite, nnd thought it sac- rilego to miss regular church meeting, call ed on Peter one tiny, and asked him to at tend on tho next Sabbath, to hear Parson I) preach ; who by the way, had built, up a large church in the village. So Peter promised that he would be there on the next Sunday. Punctual to the time, as Peter thought, but a little late,- he arrived at tho door, which was closed, and the minister hail commenced. Peter knocked nt the door. Some one sitting near opened it. In walked Peter, with .'his ever blunt \ now do do ? how dc lo\F''and looking up at the minister, he ....i, on, IIIMV de (to i\ anil, walking up the aisle, he spoke to every one, all of whom hcl viiew. When his friend, who had invited him, rose up to seat him in his pew, he grasped him by Iho hand,and, with his loud voice said, \ How are you, and how are yours ?\ ivliich made such nn'unusual coin- motion, that the congregation was in one ilter during th<> whole sermon. This was »is first and last, visit to Parson D 's church, lie said \they wcro the most dry and 'unsociable set of pcoplo ho'had ever seen, when they had got on their Sunday- go-to-meel t ing faces.\ A '-'PitXcTicAi. PitE.vcuun.—A„preacher who came tho other day to officiate at a vil- 'ago in •Lincolnshire, has been led to believe by his brethren that tho inhabitants were very stingy towards their spiritual providers. Accordingly ntthe conclusion of the service ho thus addressed the congregation : \ My brethren\ 1 have been given to understand that there is a very current notion enter- tiined by men of this village, that the local preacher or prayer leader-whoso appoint ment, may be fixed in this village, is in his nature something entirely spiritual, or in other words, an angd. Now I, am deter mined to give you to understand that such a notion is moonshine, and that we are real ly men of ,tlip same flesh .and blood with yourselves, and liko.,your?clves,. subject to nil tho ills that flesh is heir to, and that you may see how entirely wrong you have' been in entertaining such it notion. I will show you what I 1 have iu iny.liand, and what I shall do with it.\ Here tho preacher' pro duced a large piece of bread and meat, and began to eat.

Tho result has been that last year—a bad year for weather—after paying all expenses.' he is the .gainer of §3,000 in hartbcash,and his estate is .worth ten times what it was when lie took it., He enlarged much upon tho immense improvement in grnsses-obtnined by liquid manure, and expressed his wonder that ships should be sont to a distant landj nnd $50 a' ton paid for guano, when' a far better fer tilizer, was to be had at home. He instanc ed a piece of pasture laud, of his ownj'which eighteen mouths since was a wretched piece of plastic clay, producing meagre drab col ored grabses. It was like bird-Jime in win ter, and iron hi summer, and really v.ot, nnd never had been worth anything. Irrigation with liquid manure has changed all this, nnd now it produces tho finest nnd most fattening grasses, tho importance of which may he understood when Prof. Way stated in his valuable analysis, that irrigated grass es contained 22 percent more meat-making •natter than those which are not irrigat ed. The difference between the present and former balance-sheet, lies in the live stock account. By irrigation ho is enabled to double, if not to treble, his green and root crops, and thus renders them highly profit- j ucknowledgeil bestUoUl l'e profitable.

TOUCHING AND UOMANTIO.—After whirl ing for some time in the ecstatic mazes of a delightful waltz, Cornelia and myself step ped out unobserved on to tho balcony, to enjoy' a few of those moments of solitude so precious to lovers. It was a glorious night—tin- air «••!.-> cool and refreshing. As I gazed on the beautiful being at my side, I thought I never saw her look so lovely ; the full moon cast her bright rays over her whole person, giving her an almost angelic appearance, and imparting lo her flowing curls a still moro golden hue. One of her soft, fair hands rested in nunc, and ever and ani 'ii she met my ardent gazo with one of pure conliding love. Suddenly a change came over lier soft features, her full, red lip ttcmbled it* if with suppressed emotion, : tear drop rested on 1. r long, drooping lash es, the muscles around her faultless mouth became convulsed, she gasped for breath, and, snatching her hand from tho warm pressure of my own, rbo turned suddenly away, buried her face in tier fino cambric handkerchief, and—sneezed ! \PA said a little fellow tho other day, \wasn't Job ati editor ?\ \Why Sammy V' \Becattso tho Biblo says he had so much trouble, and was a iiian of sorrow all liis life.\ able instead of tin his stock ho doubles tho quantity of ma nure. And'doubling his-green and root crops, he diminishes their cost by one half. Irrigation permits each crop to he-responsi ble for its animal charged, thus rendering all remunerative. We give tho above from the Scientific American, to call the attention to this sub ject. Tho Working Farmer says:— It is now well known, that the greater tho amount of division in manures, the greater their eil'ect; and in locations where the amount of inauure is necessarily limited, their use iu solution cannot but be judi cious. Those who would try this system should be prouerly prepared for its economical use and this should <,ou*-ist of the arrangement we have before described, of a manure shod supplied,with n cistern to receive the drain age of tho compost heap, aud a pump, so arranged as to throw back the drainage on lop of the heap twico or ofteuer each week, thus see .ring that slate of moisture which atull times would prevent firc-fanging, and at the. same lime accelerate the decomposi tion of the manure. Tho pump should al so be so arranged as ^o throw tho contents of the cistern, when required, into a manure \nrt from which the fluid may bo applied through the heap, auct the consequent evap oration of the more fluid or aqueous portions, will rendertho addition of water to the cis tern necessary, and after tho -fermentation of the heap has fairly commenced, the parts rendered soluble will cause now portions of water at a singlo filtration, to require dilu tion before being applied to the soil. All the manures of the farm may bo added to tliis heap, and if tho arrangements bo suffi ciently extensive for supply of water, remo val in liquid form, tkc, the whole nianurial product .may find its way to tho soil in a fluid form, and thus its equal dissemination and ready appropriation by plants will be secured. . CouttAoiiouB DuEi.usTs .-The famous Wes ton, of facetious memory, having borrowed, b;i note, the sum of five pounds, and failing in payment, tho gentleman who had lent tho money took occasion to talk of it it' a collee-house, which caused Weston to send him to challenge. I'eing in the field, tho gentleman, a little tender in point of courage, offered him.the note to make it up, to which our hero read ily consented, and had the note delivered. \But now,\ said tho gentleman, \if we should return without, fighting, our compan- ioas will laugh at us; therefore lei us give one another a slight scratch, and say we wounded each other.\ \Willi all my heart,\ said Westou ; come, I'll wound you first. So, drawing his sword ho whipped it through tho fleshy part of his antagonist's arm, till he brought iho very tears into his eye^ _ 'Ibis done, and the wound tied up with a handkerchief. \Uome said the gentleman, \where shall 1 wound you.\ Weston, putting himself in a posture of defence replied : Where you can, sir, where you can, AN IMI-UOVKO PIANO.—I have hardlv spaco left to alludo to a now and remarka ble invention. It is a contrivance for giv ing to the piano the only quality it wanted —a prolonged sound. For ton years this has been sought for in vain. It was impos sible to make the piano sing, by oblniniii\- for it a sustained note, like the human voice or tho violin. Thalberg's great merit, bo- sides his unrivalled execution, was his man ner of at late approaching, upon the piano, the sostcuuto indispensable m many kinds of music. The invention is very simple, and is cflieicnt and infallible. Tho inven tor is M.
