for without it wetland cannot be cultivated
probably, because Village crops cannot be
obtained consequently rotation Of
crops cannot be practiced and clover, that
fertilizer Of the earth, thai which fills the
fields Of the farmer with fat cattle. and his
barns with hav, and the earth with man.
ure. will not flourish. Bat in order thai
understanding may have the desired effect,
it must be properly performed. And The
greatest skill is required TO know where
to dig the ditch, for one drain properly
placed, is of more service than many i'm,
properly situated. On this point, | know
of no better general rule than to dig be-
tween the wet and the dry" by which |
mean, cut off'the springs before they break
gout on the surface ofthe earth Where
the wild uncultivated grasses spring up
there is an excess of moisture, which needs
an underdrain to correct the humidity and
consequent injurious GOODNESS.
As 10 depih, would never have them
less than two feet. and would generally
prefer to have them deeper. The width
should be graduated to the size ofthe stones
used for filing, as large stones require a
larger drain cut than smaller ones. The
width of the drains have cut this season,
IS fourteen inches at the Surface, and iust
broad enough at the bottom to permit the
free use Of the common farm shovel
They should be filled as soon after being
dug as circumstances will permit, as he
falling of ram causes the side of the ditch
10 fall In. All lose earth at the time oil
stoning should be carefully removed. In
no case should the ditch be left open
through the winter. <.@-
After the drains are completed, occasion.
al attention will be necessary to keen the
mouths OF the drains clear, and free from
distractions, so that the water NAV pass
OFT freely. It will also be necessary to
close all holes made by mice, or in Other
ways, which would let in water directly
from the surface, as water running in
through the openings in the upper part of
the drain, carries in much earth which bv
filling the drain, or partially ob$tructing
the free passage of the water, has atenden-
ey to destroy it, or much impair its utility.
As the drains become older, The earth used
Tor filling becomes more compact, and the
danger of breaks or holes from the surface
is greatly diminished. ..~
have thus endeavored to reply to your
inquiries, and if in so doing | shall be the

saw boy who, towar.!s his cottage home,
heavy burden b.re. The way was steep
md rocky, AMI his little loaded arm
,lralh'd downward TO its full extent, while wide
he other horizontally was thrown,
" hto counterpoise the painful weight

A while he paused
And set his burthen down, just where the path
Grew more precipitOus-and wiped his brow
With his worn sleeve; and painting, breathed long
draughis
Ofthe sweet air, while the hot summer sun
Planned Ger his forehead.
But another boy,
Meath cool Shade tree in a negbboring field,
Sat PLAYING with his dog /; and from the grass
Uprising with light bounds the fence he clear'd,
And lent vigorous hand 10 the toll.
80 on they went togeihsr-gTasping firm
The basket'S handle, with right good will;
And while their young clear voices met my ear,
mus'i on that philosophy divine
" Bear one another's burdens, and perceived
That TO obey Gods word was happiness.
Then, like the bee, who from the humble flower
Sown by the way-side, cleaning for her hive,
] treasur'd upHhe lesson; and when eve
Called home the laboring OK, and TO It's bed
Warned the young bird, and shut the lily's cup,
] took my little boz upon my knee.
And told him Of the basket bearers toll

When his eye
Swell'd full and round, and fx'd upon NV face,

And aid them when tnou.canst.
For God hath sown
Sweet seeds within us-seeds OF sympathy
Whose buds are virtues such as bloom for heaven
IL thy young sister weepeth-kiss the tear
From her smooth cheek, and sooth with tender care
Her swelling breast; -Or if a secret thorn
" in thy brothers. bosOm-draw il thence
Or if thy playmate sorroweth, lend an

And when thou art man, my little one,
Still keep thy spirit open the illss
tOf foreigner, and stranger. of the race
Whom Aires sun hath darkend and Of those
Poor rpd-browed exiles, from our forest shades,
Where once they rnld supreme.
Thus shalt thou shun,
That selfshness which, wrapped in It's own gifts,
Forgets alike the Giver-and the grief
Of those who moarn.
So may'st thou ever find
Pity and love in thine own lime of need .
II ON lily young heart a signet ring
