Iho bogs wero doubtless (-strays, but the sparseness of the population In tbe Interior, ami th«D rapidity with which they multiplied, rendered them strangers to man, and very shy of Ms presence.

Those who are acquainted with the locality of which -wo speak, will remember the annoyance to which the earlier settlers were exposed in the shape of flue red sand which covered the beach, and which, in high wind, was not only exceedingly troublesome but dangerous. Thousands of hogs, in oonsequence of frequenting this spot, became totally blind: but still, with all uiocuQning which belongs to this perverse race in their natural state, they continued to elude the hunters. One day, when the famine in the city was at its height, and whtfn it was apparent that the strongest must succumb, Joe B 'took down his gun, and resolved to make a last effort to rescue his wife and little ones from a fate the most horrible of Which the mind has any conception.

Nerved to desperation by this reflection, but still with feeble steps, he took his way to the forest, resolved not to return without relief in some shape. For a long time hetmvelled 111 Vain, traversing miles of vreary pathway, without so much as seeing a single evidence of unimated nature, until he was on the point of yielding t j despair. At this time' a noise, as of approaching footsteps, arrested his attention, and he paused with cwj faculty rendered keen by hunger, to listen. Nearer csmo the trapping. and just as Joe, to screen himself from observatiyf, took shelter behind a tree, a wild hog emerged from a thicket, advancing directly towards him, fallowed immediately by another and another still. hunter trembling with anxiety and excitement, raised his eun. but sudaeniy paused in astonishment at flie singular phenomenon before him.

We all remember the brcatiilcus interest with which reporter* first seix»d upon the hurried recital in our bav.

The motive of this journey, its singleness of aim, it* position, at the close of n chain of apparently exhaustive adventure, its long eoflttoii0»ee without tidings of the party,—all impressed it with n peculiar intercut.

Young men might qft«n put in the timo (faring a call upon youitg Indies Ay smoking for the benefit of the bona*' plants, and at the same time give tbe young lady an mcetnplification of the state of things when married to an inveterate smoker. In green-houses, apan of lire coals is plneed upon the floor, fine tobacco is strewn over th*C coals, tbe honed then oloeed tightly, and left one to throe hours, according as the fly is more or ldss abundant. After being thus smoked, it should bo thoroughly syringed with warm water. A dull, cloudy day should always b«i selMtdd for this purpose. The ileliotropo is one of the plants injured by tobacco smoke, and when the house is than fumigated, all should be taken out. : ' rr , . 7 jl®~ It is refreshing to come aeroea Du«b a gaaaaa the following— ': The ffrst bird of spring attempted to sing, But ere he bnd sounded a note, ' He fell from the limb—ah, a dead bird was Urn, The music had Arts hi his throat!

The poor tx)y, who wan frightened at this, thought it better not to go home at all, but took, hia bottle, buried it under a tree, and ran awav. Us then went among the soldiers where he i distinguished hlmsel* so that in short hi beoame an officer.

Those who are acquainted with the locality of which -wo speak, will remember the annoyance to which the earlier settlers were exposed in the shape of flue red sand which covered the beach, and which, in high wind, was not only exceedingly troublesome but dangerous. Thousands of hogs, in oonsequence of frequenting this spot, became totally blind: but still, with all uiocuQning which belongs to this perverse race in their natural state, they continued to elude the hunters.

The poor tx)y, who wan frightened at this, thought it better not to go home at all, but took, hia bottle, buried it under a tree, and ran awav. Us then went among the soldiers where he i distinguished hlmsel* so that in short hi beoame an officer. When one day his regiment was quartered in this small town, the officer thought it proper to pay a visit to his oM' bos» i but not before be hud got the bottleaf beer l which he had burial some years ago under ***** \Vl»en he entered, he said " Well.' S, here I bring you youf bottle of Hamburg e'r,~ fhat you Rerrt me fot."
