THE YOUNG COMMUNICATE.
Hail, young disciple. thou whose early iee1
From the broad pathway Of the world heve He'd
Who. listening TO thy Lord with reverence meet,
Hast to his ritual bowed thy Iowiy head
How beautiful Ito heed Tie heavenly call
Ere tho full freshness Of thy morning prime,
Before the dark clouds threat, the mildews fall,
Or o'epthy temples creep the frosts Of time:
So. from each vile that lureth from the fold,
Still may thy chosen Shepherd hold thee free,
And from all i'll, till LIES brief hour be told,
o sweet disciple, may He succor thee
Till to that radiant cline thy spirit soar,
Where storms shall shred the rose and toss the bari
no more. Lbs.

Mr.. Tucker-I have already haz arded
the opinion, that farmers, even in their
present neglected state. possessed a great
er amount of useful knowledge, than any
other class of the community. also be-
lIeve that their knowledge is very limited.
compared with what il might be, if they
understood and appreciated what they al
ready possess. and their facilities for ac-
curing more. 1t must be entirely evi-
dent, if their amount Of knowledge is
large and valuable without efforts TO ac-
quire 1t, OF even being aware That thew
possess it. that slight attention 10 the
means OF improvement they possess
would greatly enlarge their stores of sci.
ence, and enable them to apply it to great
er benefit, both of themselves and of the
community.
Neither farmers, nor any other class ot
the community can perhaps be loo stropo.
~ impressed with the fact, that useful
knowledge consists principally in an ac-
quaintance with men and things-with

Introductory prayer, by Rev Drury Fairbanks, of

right hand of fellowship by Rev. Josiah Morse, of
St. J ohusbury LIST Church; address to the Church
and Society by Rev. Isaac r. Worcester, of Lit
Teton, N. H.. and concluding prayer by Rev. Levi
II. Stone of Cabot. The performances were lis
tened to by numerous audience with apparently
very deep interest; and the unusual entire unanim.
ty which has characterised the proceedings of the
Church and Society," in the settlement of their Pas
tor, it is hoped, may be token for great good, TO
result from the relation so happily formed
1t was unimposing spectacle to witness the
venerable and good father of the candidate, now in
his I'D year, with whitened locks, standing before
a largo audience delivering the fourth sermon which
it his privilege, and doubt, his
pleasing task, the occasion OF the ordination of
the last of his four sons who have devoted them
selves to the work Of the minstry--a sermon too,
marked no less for its vgor md perspcuity than
for its good sense and sound muxims. Many n
heart must have felt the influence Of the impressive
and solemn manner in which it was delivered
deepened not little by the peculiar circumstances
attendngit.
The performances ofthe choir under the dirco-
ton of Mr. Parks, were exceent--if we may be
allowed to decide upon them much superior to
that branch Of the exercises Of the day most
