The Pleasure of Planting.-You can
have no idea of the exquisite delight of a
planter; he is like painter laying on his
colo-s at every moment he sees his facts
coming out. There is no art or occupa.
,ion comparable TO this; it is full Of past,
present, and future enjoyment. look
back TO the time when there was not tree
here, only bare heath: look round and
see thousands of trees growing up, all of
which, have received my personal attention.
| remember five years ago looking forward
with the most delightful expectation TO this
very hour, and as each year has passed
the expectation, has gone on increasing.
do the same now; | anticipate what this
plantation and that one will presently be,
if only taken care of, and there Is not a spot
of which do not watch the progress.-Un-
like building, or even painting, or indeed
any other kind of pursuit, this has no end
and is never interrupted, but goes on from
day TO day, from year to year, with per.
pelualy augmenling interest. Farming
hate. What have TO do with fa,tening
and killing beasts, or raising corn only to
cut it down, and to be constantly at the
mercy Of the seasons! There can be no
such disappointments or annoyances in

has been partially opened this week, and
our citizens are picking up heads, arrow.
points, stone knives and various other in.
struments and ornaments. One shelton
has been discovered entire, and portions of
others. On counting the grains of the
stume Of tree that stands upon the top Of
the mound, il appears that this tree must
have been about one hundred and fifty
years old. 1t has been cut down about
sixteen years. We suppose that this an.

formed about two hundred years ago.
