LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
Ne us love one another mot longer may
we stay:
On this bleak world of mourning some
drnap while It's day,
Others fade ,B their noon, and few iinger
till eve So
On! there breaks not heart but leaves
some one to gr'eye;
And the fondest, the purest, the trIest
that met,
Have etill found the need 70 fofgive and
forget
Then, Oh . though the hopes that we
noutished decay,
Let Us love one another as long as we
stay.
There ere hearts, Ike the ivy, though all
be decayed.
That it seemed to Irvine fond!y in sum
fight and shade;
No leaves droop in sadness, still gaily
they spread,
Undimni'd midst the bllghted the lonely.
and dead;
But the misletoe cIings to the oak. not
in part,
Bot with leaves closely round 1.-THE
loot 10 its heart
Exists bat to iwine ii ri mblbe the same
dew.
Or to fall with its loy'd oak, and perish
there too.
Thus, let's love one another, midst sor-
rows the worst, M
Unsllered and fond, as we loVed.a at the
fret,
Tho the false wing of pleasure may
change and forsake.
And tho bright urn Of wealth into parti-
cles break
There are some sweet affections that
wealth cannot bay,
That cling but still closer when sor-
row draws nigh,
Aud Iemain with US yet, though oil else
paes away:
Thus, let's love one another as long as
we stay.

RURAL ECONOMY.
From the C'ultirator.

REMARKABLE LARGE CORN CROP.
Mr. Jesse Buel.-Il affords me pleasure
to be enabled to resort to your very useful
agricultural heriodical as a medium through
can bear testimony TO the value and impor-
tance of the soil of our little State ofDcla-
ware. "a.
Little has been heretofore known. beyond
its own limits, of the superior quality ofthe
soil of the peninsula of Delaware and Ma.
ryland, and of its advantageous location;
but the present age of Improvement has,
fortunately, brought within part ofour ter
ritory the public improvements of canal,
and two rail roads, which have developed
to the world the importance Of our location,
the beauty of our country, and the susccp-
tibiity Of our soil. to the greatest extent of
production and improvement. These inn
provements appear also to have infused new
life into our citizens, and caused u spirit of
enterprise and industry which has been
most beneficial to the agricultural interests
of our country.

soil, aud the ability Of the farmers in the

much of the finer flavor that givesto butter
its high value. The Orange Couty dairy
women say, ''give US good hard water and
we will make good butter" for the reason
probably, that it abstracts less of the .aro-
ina from the butter than soft water. The
temperature ofthe cream may he regulated
by cold or hot water put into rtub. in which
the churnmay be plunged. If the cream
is clean it needs no washing; and lfthc but
ter is dirty; water will never clean it. 80:

hold, Gnei eateth not the bread of idle

spend their time in idleness or trlvollty.
The very first indication Of disrespect, or
rebellion against their fathers authority,
was instantly put down. They were con-
tinually reminded. that as he was their
earthly parent, and benefactor, they were
bound to obey, whenever they could con-
sistently, for, being an incorporate man,
his acquisitions al times were neither rea-
sonable, or even possible to be complied
with still they were dutiful and affection
ate children, beloved and respected by all
who knew them. Seven or eight OF
these children have hopefully passed from
death unto life. One Of the daughters
has married a useful and pious man, tllI-
ing one of the highest and most lucrative
offices in The county; and it is believed
that "she will do him good and not evil
all the days Of her life; yea, that her emu.
dren will rise up and call her blessed
Is it not sufficient encouragement to q
mother, if, after life of prayer, OF toll
and self-denial, she may but see her chill
dren fitted for the service her Saviour,
aud for every duty incumbent upon them
in any department of this life ! Why 90
not mothers, at the present day, possess
the self-denial and energy Of Roman and
Spartan mothers? They were willing to
endure any fatigue, and to suffer any prl-
walton, that their sons, and their daughters
might fight the battles Of their country.
The tocsin is also sounded for us-let us
prepare our sons and daughters to engage
in more noble contest, even to fight the
battles Of the Lord, contending.against
vice, not only in every untoward torm'
such as Sabbath-breaking, ntemperauce,
and profanity, but likewise againstihe more
insidious evils of the heart, such as vanl-
ty, pride, and love of the world. How
many of our daughters are commonly
married aud sent out into the world, use
less encumbrances, fit only TO grace the
parIor or the ballroom! Why will not eX-
perience teach mothers, that, if they
would see their daughters happy and re-
spectacle, they must qualify them tor a
life of usefulness! What mistaken idea,
that gentilty and usefulness are incompati-
BILE with each other!
Truly it may be said. of that woman
who is possessed of an amiable DISPOSE
ton, pleasing and gentle manners com,
bined with knowledge of "househoId
good" or domestic duties, that her price
is above rubes ''yea. the heart OF her
husband doth safely trust in her, and he
shall have no need of spoil" FERITAs.
