hear,-God had already given them up to
to their own hearts Iusts-it was too late.
Their unsubdued tempers, their unre-
strained passions, had gathered strength un-
der this wicked indulgence, and like the
pent waters of an ice-bound river, burs,
over all these feeble inefficient barriers,
and poured flood of iniquity over the
land the consequences OF which could
not now be stayed--the guilt of which rest
ed lcariuly on his aged shoulders, and
could not be cxpiated by Offering nor sac
rilicc, or avertcd by bitter repentance or
tcrvent prayer. The sword of retrbutive
justice would now pursue his posterity,
and consume them in the vigor of man.
hood, the flower of their age; the High
Priesthood would be wrested from them,
and given to holier branch of the Aaron
ic family, and ELS domestic character
held up to future ages as beacon to warn
them of the fatal effects of paternal neg
lect.
And urc there no Els at the present
day, who may, in this dark and fearful
mirror, see their own image reflected? no
minister of the altar, who, from Incidence,
or mistaken fondneSs, disregard the COM
mands and authority of God, and suffer
their childrento grow up without correction
or restraint, till, too late, they discover
that they have lostercd the unholy propen-
sites and headstrong passions of the cor
rup: heart, and formed characteristics in
their children, which will bring disgrace
on their memories, and consume their
hearts with grief, and their eyes with tears,
and bring down their gray hairs with sor-
row to the grave!
And is the sin ofnot restraining your chill
dren, less offensive to God now, than in
the days Of Eli? Are the effects of un-
restrained propensities less pernicious to
the temporal and eternal interests of the
child, or less deleterious iii its influence
on the community The word of God,
both in prcccpt and example, is full, clear
aud decisive on this subject, and past ex-
perenee, with the wall of ages, breaks
fresh on the ear, as present evidence
that the tremendous responsibility rests on
every one who has been honored by the
tongue oflisring infancy with the name Of
Father.

RURAL ECONOMY.
Analysis of Soils.
FROM the GencSSee Farmer

Ir has been given as the golden rule in
agriculture, "To use such manures as
will make heavy land lighter, light land
heavier, cold land hotter, and hot land
COLDER" or in other words TO remedy the
existing defect, whatever that may be.
In order to do this we must know what
that defect is; we must understand the
nature of the soil we are TO operate upon,
in order to determine whether this or that
kind Of manure is to be applied, or wheth-
er large or small quantity is needed to
bring the proportions Of the soil to the
standard oftertii,y. tits therefore of i'm
portance that the farmer should be ac-
quainted with the nature and proportions
| of the constituents of soils that he should
know what these proportions are in such
as are most fertile and also what they
are in the soil which he has to cultivate.
! This cannut be determined with any de-
gree of accuracy but by analysis.
Another consideration in favour OF tanaly-
sis of soils, is. that it will substitute pre-
cision of language for the very indefinite
| and unsatisfactory mode Of expression
which now prevails. Thus for instance
| the distinction between sandy and a
elausy loom, often does not depend SO
much upon certain proportions of clay
and sand, as upon the quality Of the soil
of the place where the term is issued. Ia
sandy region Of the country, soil might
be termed cluyey, while the same soil in
clayey region would be called sandy.
Another instance large crop OF some
grain or vegetable is raised the success
is principally owing to the nature OF the
soil but unless the proportions Of its i'll.
gradients are given precisely, instead Of
describing its qualities by indefinite ex'
pressions, we are at loss to know hov
to initiate those proportions.
The constituents Of soils which more
particularly influence their fertility, are
! these:
l. Stones and peJb'ss.-These general
ly have little other effect than 10 keep tho
soil loose and porous, as they are usually
hard and unchanging. Sometimes, how
ever, they, absorb aud retain water ane
also disintegrate and mix with the fine
parts Of the soil.
2. Silicious mafier.-This is common
ly in the form Of fine and coarse sand
Soils where this predominates are little in
jured by water, having little attraction 70
it, and retaining it fcebly. They never
sointer kill wheat
! 3. Aluminous matter.-This is the pre-
dominant constituent of clay soils. Unlike
the preceding. it has powerful attraction
for water, and retains it strongly ; hence
clay will remain long suspended in wa,e
while sand sinks Immediately. Alumni
Gus soils suffer from too much wet, art
bake hard in dry season,
i 4. Carbonate Of ime.-This exists il
} the form oflimestone, chalk, and shells
l. is principal constituent of mari. Soils
which have due proportion of this ingre
dent, are naturally fertile and durable in !
high degree.
5. Animal & vegetable substances -Thes'
improve the soil by operating in scvera
J ways. They give aru'mth to the soil, fur
nish nutriment directly to the plant, absorl
J moisture and nutritious substances tion

 That the cause had been tried four times hy jury, once before the justice, three times in tbe Court ot Common Pleas, and three times argued iii the Supreme Court, where ii was carried by Whitaker,
 In the mean time, the justice had long since gone out oi office, by the expiration of his term
 Two oi the judges of the Court of Common Pleas had been removed by the aet o Cod and the rest hy the powers that be. All tho judges of the Supreme Court had been changed since first argued lhere and every member of the Court of Errors, with one or two exceptions had yielded their places those who now occupy then and the written laws of the State had been entirely changed since the commencement of the suit.
 That to inc matters of fact, 4s jurors good and lawful mem had found Tn favor of his client. And that eight judges of eomen law jurisdiction, a, rei- dered Judgment n his fayor us 10 matters of law. And that when the was decided in the Court Of Errors more than one hundred different judges, justices and jurors will have sat i'll judgment the tweny=siS dollars.
 His client, he said, had, in the mean time, been waiting like the traveller in the fable, on the banks of the rver for the waters to flow by the hope that the law might have is course, and the controversy be end- ed And in case all these decisions are 1eyersed new trial granted the parties sent hack the baund- less of litigation, il would present ill bold relief .the glorious uncertainty of the law,a whose voice. t Is said, ais the harmony of the wofld."
