THE WISDOM OF GOD.

When we review tina: imme nse struc-
ture of.the universe in which we dwell !;
when we think of him, whose wisdom
has planned the system of being whose
mind compartments whose counsels d.
rect the whole course of events from
the beginning TO the end of time; by
whom nothing is SO inconsiderable as to
be overlooked or so transient as TO
be forgotten who attends 10 the con-
Germs Of the poor man in his cottage,
while he is steering the sun and the
moon in their course through the heav-
ems into what astonishment and self
humiliation do we fall Before him
all our boosted knowledge is ignorance,
and our wisdom is folly Whenever we
cast our eyes on his works and ways,
we find all things adjusted in number,
weight and measure; and after all that
we can survey, Lo these are but part
of his ways; and how small a portion
has been heard of him

SUBMISSION.

The committing ourselves to God i'm
plies the resignation of our wills to the
will of God, to be disposed of as seems
good in his eyes. 1t may be, thou canst
refer difficult case TO Coz, provided
that he will determine and issue it ac-
cording TO thy desires; but in truth that
is no submission OF resignation at all,
but limiting Of, and prescribing to
God. 1t was an excellent reply that a
choice christian once made to another:
When beloved and only child lay
IN dangerous sickness at the point
OF death, a friend asked the mother,
what would you now desire of God in
reference TO your child? Would you
beg of him its life or death, in the ex-
tremity it is now in? The mother an
swered, / fer that to the 1DiA of God.
But, said the friend, if God would refer
it TO you, what would you choose them
Why, truly, said she, If God could
refer ii to me, l could even refer it to God
agoin.-This is the true committing of
ourselves, End our troublesome concerns
to the Lord.-FlaueL.

CULTURE OF THE VINE.
YoRK. [PENN.l Oct. "a.

ohh3 LI'N' OSt: 81
This has become an object of great
promise in York County, Experiments
have already shown that the vine will
not only flourish in the poorer soils of
this county, but that excellent wine
can be made, and that raising vine yards
will become as profitable as any other
agricultural pursuit.
A portion of the land in York county
is thin and poor, commonly called bar
rens; it,has been proved that the vine
succeeds well on this land; and 90 a.
cres of it, which can now be bought for
from 6 to 10 dollars per acre, when
planted with vines, and those at maturi-
ty, will be more productive to the own
er than 900 acres of the best land in the
county. No capital is required in rear
ing vineyard; the proceeding re-
quires only attention and perseverance
Mr.. Thomas Eichelberger, an enter
Prisiug citizen of this place, was the
first who seriously commenced the cul-
tivation of the vine with a view to pro-
fit. Having a ridge of slate land which
runs through his farm-he conceived
the idea of turning it into a vineyard !;
and he engaged German emigrant,
who had been vine dresser, and wine
maker in his native country. To this
man he gave a permanent interest in
4 acres Of land, and lis produce, which
was set apart for planting with vines; a
small house was also put up for. the
working partner, near the premises.
Mr.. E. advanced the means of procuring
the cuttings for planting, and other ex-
penses, and also for the subsistence OF
the laboring partner, till the vine yard
should become productive, when he
was to be repaid.
Under this arrangement, in 1918, the
A acres were planted in rows, with wide
intervals, and those intervals were fill
ed up in the following years, with the
suckers, or sprouts, which grew from
the original plants; these therefore,
are or 2 years later than the first
paintings. 1t required one hand to man.
age all this and keep the grass down
during the summer; in the winter, the

lows, his head was fuller of froIic than
of study, and his proneness TO mischief
frequently exposed him TO the fefuIa,
which the principal, the reverend, and
truly Pious DR.. Armstrong, used, as we
thought, with an unsparing hand. The
arrival of Mr.. Southland was happy e.
vent. His disposition seemed conciliat-
ing, and we hoped to transgress with
impunity. We were soon undeceived,
however, for the birch was added 10 the
ferula, and, on one occasion, the editor
OF this paper was brought up. 1t was
his first offence, and the manner of The
usher denoted summary punishment.
T" Take off your coat,'' was the first sal
utatlon. How he performed this cere-
mony, those only can know who have
tried it: however, at last the coat was
off. "Stand up here, that may give it

words although uttered eighteen wears

manner of the usher was every thing

er is become head of tie navy depart
ment of the United States, and one of the

Mr.. SOUTHARD.

The appointment of Mr.. Southland,
as Secretary of the Navy, is another
evidence of the purity Of our republi-
can institutions, and of the reward be-
slowed on merit, however humble its
origin. Mr.. Southland has no patrician
rank to boast Of, and has risen solely by
the force of talent. But few years
since he was private tutor in family
Of one of our neighbouring counties ;
and it almost defies crednlity itself to
observe with what magic art his mind
has made its way. Let the purity and
impartiality which has marked this APP
pointment ever prevail, and we may
with safety say to our country, " live
forever"
We cannot here help relating an an.
ecdote of Mr.. Southland, which occur
red in early life. Trifiing incidents Of
ten obtain importance from circumstan
ces; and the anecdote alluded 10, haC
Mr.. S. remained schoolmaster, would
probably never have been told to sec
ond person. When about 13 years o
age, MIR. S. was an usher in the acade
my at Mendham, N. J. at which the edi
tor Of this paper, then small boy, wa

wine for the consumption of all the u
nited States; and twenty years from
this day, more wine will be made in
Pennsylvania than is now imported into
it. When once vine yard has come to
maturity, the owner will be able to sell
his wine at so cents per gallon, and have
abundance of profit.
Most of the sites where vines have
been planted, are on the sides of hills,
with a gradual slope, and southern as
pect; though practical men say that
they succeed equally we'll on the north
side.
Observation and experience will teacl,
10 due time what kind of grapes will
suit best 10 the soil and climate, and al
so how to manage the grapes, and the
juice, to obtain the best wine Mr..
'Eichelberger has sufficiently proved
that both the white and red wine will
succeed.
Many interesting considerations are
suggested by the successful cultivation
of the vine in this country. In moral,
statistical, and national view it is impor-
tant, and will be hailed as one Of the
greatest acquisitions that has been made
TO our domestic economy.
NoTE.-Since writing the above, |
have been informed, that Mr.. Overdoff,
who has very Aourishing vine yard,
raised his plants from the seed, which
were sown in bed in the garden, and
after one year, were transplanted Hay-
ing roots, they are moi so liable to fail, as
the cuttings, which are joints of vine,
one end Of which is stuck in the ground.

Important Discouery.-A man by the
name of Daniel Hawley, who has been
school teacher in Carmel, N. Y. and
its vicinity for about sixteen years past,
and established good character, has
lately invented new construction of
materials, which with the loadstone.
will attract and draw steel. and which
will not continue, but is Immediately re-
PEELED the contrary way and passes the
load stone. Such an operation by the
magnet has always, by the great, been
considered to- be impossible, which now
may be thought TO be no more of mir
acle than fiction. AS the operation has
the appearance of a real perpetual
moving wheel, which, when finished, it
is thought can be applied efectually to
boats on canals, and for raising water.
and TO many other advantageous ma
chineries. Having seen the operation
on water, and not knowing why it has not
heretofore been carried into execution,
we are lead to suspect that necessary
means has, in great degree, prevent
ed the inventor from accomplishing his
design in this great philosophical andi
Portant discovery; and were this 10 be
the case, we think that immediate asss-
lance should be rendered him, as we
understand that his earnings for many
years past, have betrayed the expenses
up TO the present time. It may be here
observed, that he has invented some
thing that will stop the force of attrac-
ton, which SURPRISES the knowledge of
all philosophical discoveries.

M. Graham's account Of his Ascent IN
q Balloon.

M. Graham's account Of his Ascent IN
Balloon.
After commencing our ascent. we in
few moments lost sight of the assem-
bled multitude, St. Paul's appearing
only as a diminutive building, and the
shipping in the river like children'stoys.
Our course lay over Waterloo and Lon
don-bridges, Greenwich, and Black
heath. We had'now mounted to a great
height, and which we found by the ba-
rometer to be nearly mile and passing
through cloud we found it rather cold
and damp. The cloud apparently sep
arated, and did not seem inclined to re-
unite, while through the aperture we
clearly saw the earth, free from any
misty appearance, which some have
described as being the case. We then
changed our course to the southwark,
for the space of five minutes, and then
returned TO the same direction as the
first. Through the powerful rays of
the sun, the gas expanded, and we
plainly heard it rushing through the
safety-pipe, with loud Kissing noise ;
and as it escaped, it became as visible
as the smoke from chimney, assuming
a yellowish brown appearance. Ithen
judged it advisable pull the vaIve-line,
and Notwithstanding the valve thus be.
came open, we still discovered we
were ascending, by throwing out small
bits of paper. 10 about half minute:
time, it was plain that the balloon had
begun to descend, in consequence Of
which we closed the valve. At this
time we were at our greatest height
which we calculated by our barometer
to be two miles and quarter. My
friend, Mr.. Harris, observed be fell
himself very warm, probably through
some attraction of the solar rays by the
machine. And as for my own part,
must say, that although at this great
hight, felt no extra sense of cold, bu
we both felt extreme thirst. At thi.
time also the clouds surrounded us like
so many silvered mountains, and above
our heads the atmosphere was serene
beyond all idea. We also discovered
that the balloon, car, and ourselves
were each reflected in the most beau
tiiul manner, with all the diferen
colours, on the surface of the clouds
but much diminished in size. The
grandeur and loveliness ofthis spectacle
it is impossible to describe.
The valve being closed, and the solar
rays powerful, we discovered we were
floating on an equilbrium-the paper
which we threw out doing the same
only descending by lis own gravity
which was very slowly. Soon. how
ever, we began to descend, and discov
cred the fields in appearance, like ;
beautiful carpet, bordering in its various
shapes with rich green velvet. Still
keeping our casterly direction, we soor
discovered the English Channel, will
