True deeds are worth the doing well.
More solemn each than Time can tell,

Always do your best!
printer Apples for the South.
It lias long been the conviction of
many persons that there were no varieties
of apples which would succeed as winter
keepers at the South. This mistaken no
tion has arisen from the fact that until
within the past few years Southern tree
planters knew no better than to plant
varieties of Northern origin ; never for a
moment taking into consideration the im
portant fact that a given variety of fruit
requires for its perfect development and
maturity a given amount of light and
heat; and that as a matter of course, a
variety that will mature at the North at
the close of warm weather there, w ill ma
ture at the South before the close of warm
weather here; and that having matured,
it will euter into a state of rapid decom
position and decay, through the chemical
changes brought about by excess of heat.
No variety of fruit can be valuable as a
winter fruit in any climate unless the
time requried for its maturity embraces
all the warm weather of the latitude in
WHICH lb IS grown. UUltC; uu ujtpiw w U6
a winter apple at the South, must not
mature before the close of warm weather
here—that is, it must vequire several
weeks longer time to reach maturity than
Northern winter apples demand. Winter
apples for tho South must be such as are
“native and to the manor born.” They
can be valuable only to the South since,
in a highor lattitude, the cold weather
would come upon them before they reach
ed maturity.
Iu the matter, then, of winter fruits, it
certainly holds to reason, and to the
immutable laws of nature, that, by tho
prop r selection of varieties, the South
may become entirely independent of the
North, Indeed, the - ost respectable
Northern pomologists admit that our best
Southern winter apples attain a higher
excellence in respect to sprightliness and
flavor than it is possible for any Northern
winter apples to obtain. There is no
reason, then, why the South may not sup
ply the Northern markets with the very
finest winter apples, nnd at tin most
remunerative prices. Intelligence in the
selection of varitte«, nnd industry in their
cultivation, can accomplish this—and it
will be accomplished.
Possessed of the finest so:l aud elimat'e
in the world for the production of the
most delicious fruits, lot us hope that the
South may soon be able to rise from her
prostrate condition, and that she may
soon look upon her hills crowned and her
vales shaded with her own native trees
and vines—the glory and the prido of the
generous hands that planted them —Koen
& Bledsoe's Catalogue.
Harrow Escape of Two I'ounit
Ladies.
Yesterday afternoon, about half-past
4 o’clock, as a barouche with two
young ladies of Shelby county ha2
just passed through a gateway near
the railroad crossing on the Shelby
ville pike, aud the negro driver was
closing the gate a train came
thundering along, aud ns the lo
comotive whistle sounded, tho two
Bpirucu nurses uniucu uu. «uwuj *•»*
pike, so badly frightened as to be en
tirely beyond control. The negro dri
ver shouted, but to no purpose; the
, horses only going the faster for the
* noise, and the young ladi, s soroauiing
with fright. Mr. Thomas Hail, a
y0liug gentleman of this city, who was
driving out toward the race track, no
ticed the horses in time to jump out
of his buggy, and, by waving his hat,
partially checked their mad career.
Fearing they would dash into a
fence, at the risk of his neck he sprang
Into the barouche, bnt as he drew up
the lines the horses became furiou*,
and again bounded oil' at break-neck
speed, threatening every moment to
upset the vehicle or to pitch out the
two now thoroughly terrified young
ladies, who, had it not beou for the
presence of mind of Mr. Hall in pre
venting them, would have leaped from
their seats into the road. Never was
terror more strongly depicted on two
human faces, and the young man s
heart was away up la his mouth as the
mad brutes neerec tl/o great stone
posts that loomed up near the toll-g»*
tVh%t if the barrouehe with its pre
cious freight, should be dashfcd against
one of these? The thought made him
turn pale. Gathering all his strength,
howfcvcr, he determined to do lus part
like a mao, and with this resolve he
planted Id* foot against one of the un
iSai* and with all his might com
,neared a vigerous “*ee-saw" on the
Hues. The horses, rearing and plung
• * ii»*, still Wept oh, their heads jerking
from side to side ami their nostrils
steaming with their hot breath. 'There
seemed little hope as the barouche
neared tht? posts, and' the iicghtcacd

death. It was a terrible moment,
but fortune at last favored the brave.
The continued “see-sawing'" on the
lines proved (no much for the fiery
spirit of the unruly steeds, and it was
not long before botli of them were
brought to their knees, panting, cx
haiiMd, and tlioronglily subdued.
The young ladies, so unexpectedly
rescued, ou seeing the danger over,
were profhsd in thanks to their rescuer,
who, however, modestly withdrew af
ter complying with a request for his
address.—‘Lbuisvtlle Courier-Journal.

TheSexoF Eggs.—When, on examin- ■
ing an egg. by holding it between the ey e
and the light of the sun, or of a candle, j
the vivifying speck is seen exactly on the
top, such an egg, it is said, will produce a
male bird; but if ou the contrary, the
speck be on oneside, it will produce a hen. ;
It is said, also, that the sex St the embryo -
bird may be distinguished by the shape ot
the ccg; as if the egg is elongated in shape
it will contain a male, hut if more globu
lar it will contain a female. So that, if
these indications be true, cither sex may
be propagated at pleasure, which is not
yet known to be the case in any other class
of the animal crention. __j

on both sides of the fabric sewed, and will
not rip or ravel. The following facts hav

why the STAR MACHINE should be prefer
red to any other:
1. Their great simplicity.
2. It'is impossible for them to get out of
adjustment during proper usage.
3. They are of great capncityt and will
stitch, hem, fell, braid, bind, cord and gather
without basting.
4. They have an adjustable press or foot
to hold the work; and they sew equally well
the lightest and heaviest fabrics.
6. They w 11 sew over the heaviest seams
without changiug the tension or breaking the
finest thread.
6. They use a straight needle—curved ones
are liable to break.
7* The needle has a perpendicular motion.
This is absolutely necessary lor heavy work.
8. They run easily, and are almost noise
