From The Ne.v Easland Farmtr.
ON LEAVES FOR MANURE.

Mr.. Editer-The changing foliage warns The
farmer again to make ready for gathering his sup
ply Of leaves; the comfort OF his cattle requires it,
and clean abundant litter, to make warm nests
for his hogs, will assist much to their fattenng
These advantages would pay for the trouble of get
ting in leaves but when their value as manure
is we'll considered, it seems that no one would ov
erlook way SO easy to benefit himself. That
leaves manure the land, is not new doctrine !;
1t is as old as the world. Their yearly fail,
and the occasional fall of timber, are the an
cient ordinance, by which, the happy soil which
we till, was prepared for cultivation; whether its
Eraaitive sweetness and virginlty has been impair
ed By injudcious husbandry, and are to be reclaim
ed or whether the owner wishes to preserve it en-
tire, the means are the same; steady industry
to provide manure, in such proportion, always to
exceed somewhat the mere requirements OF the
crops.
OF these means, Che gathering Of leaves where
woodland is near is the easiestan,F'the most pro-
fitable it is much attended to in Il! best cul,a-
ted parts of Europe The Swiss who have to sup
port thick population upon rough and rocky soil
gather leaves wherever they to be found in
their apple and chestnut orchards; by the read
side; and in their small cities the privilege Of raking
up the leaves from the public walks 10 Paid for b,
the farmers. In Elanders they gather great sticks
of them. and their beautiful cattle and horses have
the benefit of most abundant littcrs
am urged again, MIR. Editor, to these remarks
by the benefits which have received from the prac-
tce; have cnt!eavorcd every season to get in
more than before, and hope soon, If thr weather
proves favorable, to secure greater stock of them
than ever l have yet. Well mixed with cattle
dung, they are the most assured means Of raising
good crop of potatoes, Of superior flavor and excel
Ience.
The gathering Of leaves may be greatly accce

Though brigh, thy morn of life may seem,
Remember clouds may rise;
And trust not 10 the transien, CLEAN
of calm and smiling skies
So tread fe's path, in sunshine Irest,
With lowly cautious fear;
That when gtiet's shadows DER il res',
Its memory may be Gear
If dark life's matin hours may be,
Despond not at their gloom;
joys cloudless sun may rise for thee,
And Hopes brigh, fow're,s bloom.
So trace thy pathway thor -bes'rew'd,
That thou. in happier hours,
With pure and paneles, gratitude
Mayst bless its fragran, flowers.
Through cloud and sunshine, flower and thorn.
Pursue thy even way,
Nor e' Thy better hopes be born
of things that must decay,
Rejoice with tremsliag, mourn with hope,
Take life as life was given;
lis rough ascent, its fowery slope,
May lead alike TO heaven!
