Of the prairie that adjoins the timber and
thus we may see at the commencement, a
range of farms circumscribing the entire
prairie as with a belt. The burning of the
prairie is then stopped the whole distance of
the circuit, in the neighborhood Of these
farms, to prevent injury to the fences and
other improvements. This is done by
ploughing two or three burrows all around
the settlement. In short time the timber
springs up spontaneously on all the parts
not burnt, and the groves and forests COM
mence gradual encroachment on the ada
cent prairies. In breaking up prairie land,
&c. for the cultivation, they usually plough
with three or four yoke of oxen the shear
plough turning up about eighteen to twenty
four inches of turf at fnrrow in breadth,
and from three to four inches deep, the sod
turning entirely over, so as to lay the grass
down, and it fits farrow to furrow, smoothly
enough to harrow and sow wheat. x is usu-
al to break it up in May. and drop corn along
the edge of every fourth row. This is cali.
ed sod corn. No working or plouging is nc
cessary the first season. The sod is LETT ly.
ing for the grass to decay and after the
next winters frost, it crumbles and becomes
light and friable. The sod does not make
more than half crop, and is cut up. stalk
and all together, and stacked up for fodder
for stock. The next year the crop Of corn
is most abundant, averaging from 90 to 100
bushels per acre.

For the TELEGRAPH.



Is the injunction of the great Apostle
of the Gentiles, to the church at Rome,
" beloved of God, called to be saints; J"
and it should be written in letters of gold,
upon the heart of every professor of that
religion which is pure and unde6led-ofI
those who possess that faith which shone
with such lustre that Paul thanked God
that it was spoken of throughout the
world. And if that church needed such
a caution, how much more do the church
es of the present day need to have this,
and numerous other passages with which
the scriptures abound, reiterated, until the
sound shall be heard from pole, to pole,
and shall arouse the sleeping energies OF
those who are resting in supineness, in
dulging in that criminal conformity to the
world, by which they are so intermingled
with them, that they can be distinguished
from them only by their emulation to
excel, even those who profess not but to
be the servants of sin.
NV mind has been led to serious in
quiry on this subject by the thrilling ap-
peals addressed to the church, through
the medium of the press, the word OF God,
and in some instances by the ministers of
the gospel. These tell US that the world
must be evangelzed-of the millions who
are perishing in heath darkness-of
the aborigines of our country, driven by
the hand of oppression beyond the Miss
issippi, where they must perish, soul and
| body, if they have not immediate help
ALI this obtains general credeGce. These
appeals are perused with some interest

aside with saying, we know these things
are true, they must have help, but how

there is not similarity. Apply the re-
medy there prescribed, and may we not
be assured that if the people offer will

God will fourish2 The ground would
take is this: the church is rich, abund-
sntly able-if we may judge from the
atyle in which we see her outwardly
adorned, and the luxury which marks
her steps-to send the gospel to every
corner of the earth. and place the word of
life in every destitute family, as soon as
means and money with Gods blessing
can do it. What use is made Of the
money which should be employed for
these noble purposes2 What sacrifices
are made by the church OF Christ. to adj
vance the cause of religion at home, or to
relieve the wants Of those who are per-
ishing for lack of vision abroad2 Why
do not the church, by an easy transition
from a state of conformity to the world,
to that of conformity to the plainest rules
of scripture, arise as the heart OF one man.
come out from under the yoke of the ty-
rant, custom, and assert their divine
origin in the midst of crooked and per-

statistics Of our churches present for years
past. We hear of revivals, in some in
stances, but o(ener of declensions and
darkness. What can be the cause Of all
this, but that professors are Withholding

what extent the text at the head of this
article would lead US, but do earnestly
desire that every professor of that religion
which was established bv Him who
though he "was rich yet for orr sakes
became poor, and whose primitive follow
ers wandered about in sheep-skins and
goat-skins, of whom the world were not
worthy, may adopt resolution to make
use of no one article of food, dress or
equipage, which can be dispensed with,
and that the avaiIs of such retrenchment
may be appropriated to the cause of be-

has been done. a>-~-
forgot to mention, that, in all the eve
ming meetings, in which most Of the con-
versions occurred, only only sermon was
preached. But the church came up to their
privileges, and the aged fathers in Israel
say they never saw such time. 1t is the
Lords doings, and it is marvellous in our
eyes.
