BULWER'S WORKS.

The popularity of the above works and
their dangerous tendencies demand of ev-
cry lover of good morals. and especially
of every Christian, an effort to guard the
public mind against their corrupting in
fuence. If yon will allow one 10 whose
vicinity these works have recently been
offered for sale by a protesting Christian,
to make~a few extracts from an able re-
view of these works for insertion in the
Observer, it may be doing something to
remove the evil These extracts are taxi
en- from the Literary and Theological
Review, published in your city The
Reviewer states that "a elaring and most
wicked fault of Bulwer is his predilec-
ton for elegant impurities. In fact he
sometimes descends to grossness; but this
is not usual. He values his popularity
too highly to risk it against such manifest
odds. But he is often willing to sacrifice
delicacy by giving utterance to senti-
ment, or point TO an incident which must
inevitably put true modesty to the blush,
and ne can plead no apology save that the
language is refined
The Review also states, e There is but
one of his novels free from series of
studied efforts to cast virtue into the shade,
and to embellish vice with all the charms
of approval and success. Throughout the
most of Bulwer's works there is scatter.

The four-3ence ha'pennys worth OF milk,

will: and we advise every farmer to raise
al least 40 or so bushels FOR each beast in
his barn. But he says, have no land in
a suitable condition for such crops. An
experiment on a small scale the last sea-
son, satisfied US that sward land, newly
turned, will answer well for the root
crops We incline to the opinion that
they can be grown as economically on
such land as on old ground. But the
new ground must be we'll ploughed to the
depth Of eight inches or more, and must
be thoroughly narrowed. The first of
June is early enough for the sowing of
any of these crops, and the ruta baga seed
should be kept out of the land until the
middle of the month.
Our custom has been to sow upon a
level surface, and In rows not more than
Is or 16 inches apart; but we very much
doubt whether it is not better to ridge and
have The rows from "a to 80 inches apart.
This saves much labor. Many recon-
mend soaking the seed but when the
ground is in good condition for the recep-
ton Of seed, we have never found benefit
from soaking. On the whole we think
the carrot less subject to injury flom
woTms,orot or drought than the Other
roots; tits as valuable as any one of them
| and though the labor of its cultivation i:
somewhat greater, yet we prefer it for tn
main crop. 1t is well to try some ofeaci
kind.
Accounts are often published of crop
much larger than we have named, as tn
probable produce. Without questioning
the correctness of those accounts, W
merely say that we have tried to conform
to results obtained under our own eye i
a series of four or five years; we wish.t
present the question of root culture fairl
and not allure people into it by expects
tons which must probably be disappoin
ed.
The cold and wet of the spring, thong
they certainly should not bring discourag
ment, will cause some hesitation abol
the planting of corn as extensively as
customary; but we see nothing in the
to impair the hope that the crop may

AGRICU L 7 U RAJ .
ROOT CULTURE.

The cultivation of roots as food for cat
tie and swine, has been strongly urged
upon farmers by the agricultural press,
for several years past. The columns of
this paper have often spoken, and distinct
ly, upon the subject. "Line upon line,
here little and there a liale,n having
been dealt out, the farmers of this vicinity
have partially complied with the advice.
But still farther compliance may be desi-
rable. We, however, have not a belief
that the root husbandry should be carried
to the same extent in our climate as it is
under the moister, skies of England.
There the root crop is probably more GER
tain than with us; while Indian corn, one
of our most certain and best crops. cannot
be grown in the fogs of the island. We
do not suppose that it would be found
profitable here to rival the mother land
in the extent Of roothusbandry. And yet
our faith is strong that it would be prof.

Mrs Cow IN PHILADELPHIA.-M

the Pennsylvania Freeman. Heath Jour.

PHYsIoLoGIcALL EcTuRE.-Last fourth

tening to lecture from Mary S Grove,
at temperance Hall, on the circulation of
the blood and the evils resulting from I'M
peding it. 1t did not aim at the character
of profoundly scientific discourse, but
was plain, unpretending, useful presenta-
ton of important truths on an importantsub
}ject-such an effort as in our estimation IS
calculated TO do much good. The injuri-
Gus and even fata! effects often produced
by the absurd practice of COMPRISING the
chest, from false notion of improving the
form. were faithfully and impressiyely de-
picted, and the importance to health, Of
leaving the life channels free from OBJ.
/ struction, was made forcibly obvious.
Our opinion has already been express

factor, and as such ought to be encourag

SLEEPING IN JEsUs.-This expression,
/" sleeping in Jesus is one of the most
tender that can be conceived. Death was
never descibed as sleep. in the sense of
a natural and short repose, to be succeed
ed by the morn of new and glorious
day, till the gospel so proclaimed it. The
image of sleep, indeed, as of stern, inter-
ninable state ofinactivity and silence, had
been long known; but that of sleep, as OF
child in the arms of mother, to be fol-
lowed by the trump OF a blessed resurrec-
ton dawn, was first announced in the
Christian revelation: Death is now only
brief repose the body resting from its
Iabors, and the soul being present with
the Lord in holiness and felicity.
