GARDENERS WORK,

NOVEMBER. Gather from your garden
| before the hard i.osis commence, oil those
fruits OF your labors which you wish to
preserve through the winter, not forget
ting winter squashes. Take up and pre-
serve cabbages. Preserve your celery.
You may gather part in dry weather,
and pack it in boxes in dry sand, and
place the boxes in a warm cellar, leaving
the tops and leaves open to the air.
Those cabbage and caulihowcr plants
which you mean shall stand through the
winter in frames, should during the con-
tinuance Of mild weather, be allowed eve
rg advantage of free air, to inuro them by
degrees, to bear cold. Take the glasses
OF entirely in the warm part Of the duy,
but place them on again at nj ght, and in
wet or cold weather. Ii your boets, tur-
nips, parsneps, SC. are not secured, take
them up and preserve them. You may
now SOW the seeds Of rhubarb, sea -kale,
skirrets, palsneps, and many other kinds,
which are somewhat slow in vegetatisg,
and they will come forward early, aud
grow vigorously in the spring In the
beginning OF this month, you may manure
and trench the ground which is intended
for early crops, and if it be Of a stiff,
heavy nature, lay it up in ridges to re-
ceiye tho benefit Of the winter frosts. -
You may now SOW early peas, to come
up in the spring, if you can preserve them

Bile period as any for the planting ap.

INTERESTING TO THB cAUsE OF SCIENCE.
[Concluded from our last.
From Tyre,.i. appears, the young Hi
eronymus was sent by Hiram and Solo
.non, whose interests were inseparable,
as ambassador to represent their in
.terests in the island Of Atlantis, with
which fourishing territory the Tyrians
and Hebrews carried Oil lucrative com
rsrce. A VOYAGE Of ten days from the
Pillars of Hercules, (Gibralter,] brought
him to that island, which extended seyel'
hundred leagues to the westward, across
the Atlantic. Hleronymus had resided
there five years, and had married the
daughter Of the powerful monarch who
had governed that paradise Of the west
when the whole empire, as SO strikingly
and beautifully described by Plato, was
in a few hours whelmed 10 the ocean
depths and of oil it's numerous inhabi.

arts and sciences, not wreck was Iei'
behind.
Hisronymus, and a few Of his personal
attendants, made their escape in an open
vessel, and after encountering the fearful
dangers Of the deep, and drifting for
weeks on the broad sea, they were at
length driven by q storm on an unknown
shore, which afterwards proved to be the
eas,ess part Of this continent, where, on
the lbco Of huge rock, near the sea,
they engraved a grateful memorial Of
their escape; an account OF the sh'Pwreck,
and Of the convulsion which sunk the At
ianfis. I. may be noted here that this
statement Of Hieronymus accounts most
satisfactorily for the sculptured rock at
D;ghton, in Massachusetts,, an account
and engraving Of which may be found in

Marriage. c.-hlarri.gc is to n woman
at once the happiest and the suddcs
event Of her lie; it is the promise
Of future bliss, raised on the death
of all present enjoyment. She quits her
home, her parents, aer companions, hcl
amusInents, every thing on which she has
hitherto depended for comfort, for aiFec-
ton, for kindness, for pleasure. The pa
nts'by whose advice she has been guid-
ed, The sister to whom she has dared i'm
plrt every embryo thought and feeling, the
brother who has played with her, by turns
the counsellor and counseled, and the
younger children, to whom she has hi,h-
erto been the mother and the playmate,
all are to be forsaken at ono fell stroke
every former tic is loosened, the spring oi
every hope and action is to be changed;
and yet she flies with JOY into the un,rod-
den path before her buoyed up by the
confidence Of requted love, she bids q
fond and grateful adieu to the life that is
past and turns with excited hopes and
JOY Gus anticipatlon Of the happiness that is
to come. Then wo to the man who can
blight such fair hope who can treache-
ropsIy lure such heart from its peaceful
enjoyment and the watchlul protection at
home ; who can, COW ardlike, break the
illusions that have won her, and destroy
the confidence that love had inspired
Wo to him who has too carly Withdrawn
the tender plant from the props * stays Of
moral disc ipline in which she has been
nurtured, aud yet make no ciT1rt to sup
ply their place; for on him the responsible
lty of her errors on him who has first
taught her, by his example, to grow car
less ot her duty, and then exposed her
with weakened spirit, and unsa,islied
heart, to the wide storms aud the willy
