THE THREE VOICES.

ain the dead watches of the night, voices
we're heard on either side of me, and looked,
aud behold three angelic forms robcd in gar
Dents of light"
First roice-IIe sleeps. 1t is thy father,
ctld, who calls thee. His spirit is near thee.
TO another spere-to the home of the virtuous,
the good, have come to call thee, son, away
Second roice.-Shc, whom thou once called'st
mother--the mothorof thy youth, who early led
tkee by TIE hand, among the howery scenes OF
earth-who first made thy eyes open to the
lovelness Of nature she calls thee, son, to the
abode Of spirits.
Third p2icc.--The earth is beautiful-lovcly
its landscapes canopied by the vaultcd arch OF
heaven, frsttod with golden fires. Oh! thrice
beautiful The world of eye and ear Yet come
home hone, my brother, why linger you The
spirit Of thy sister waiteth for thee.
First roice.--When sad, and weary Of life,
remember him who trained thy expanding mind
think how much lie loved thee, here, and
how much he desreth thee, the companion Of
other scenes.
Second roicc.--ln moments of JOY, when full
of life and merrment, remember her smile,
that once answered to thcm--the pretty stories
that made thy heart glad and buoyant. 1t is thy
mother, boy, who calls thee.
Third roice-Wheu thy soul is full of lofty
asprings---wheu thoU wouIdst nobly and boldly
climb the heights of ambtion---remember her
who once cherished thoughts like thine, and
who lived long enough to find nothing true but
heaven.
Frs roice.---IIast chou found friend, true
fricnd---one ike thy father, boy
Second r0ice.---Ilrst tho found her who loved
thee as thy mother, boy
Third rojce---IIast thou known, my brother,
more than a sisters fond, devoted love
FrS roice---Come home---comc home
Second roice,---Our home is heaven
Third roice.---The presence Of God
The voices ceased.-- All around was peace
and quietness. Soothing sleep again rested on
my senses, and with the early dawn have thus
sought TO transcrbe the vision.

SEI.FISHN ESS.

Within his house ina great arm chair before
the fire, sat an old gray headed man, ripe for
the grave. Twas winter, and the cold wind
whistled among the eatless branches Of the trees,
and the snow and s!eet ratified against the win
dows. The old man chucked, for he was warm
and comfortable, and the biting blast touched
him not. He said, i have enough, am rich,
60 blow ye winds and drift We SHOWS, | am safe
A servant entered and said, 'Sir, woman is

to sleep---no home TO go 10. She begs for a
corner of your kitchen to pass the knght in

says she has 20 money, and begs you to give
her enough TO buy a meal aud lodging Be
gone Drive her Off What I've COTS my
own, and I'll keep it too. I've none to squander
on worthless mendicants.'
The next morning the old man stepped out
into the porch, and there upon one of the bench
es sat the poor beggar woman. Ills rage was
kindled.
Did not tell you had nothing for you,
impudence Come, come, tramp Leave my
house, I say; dye hear!' She heard him not
She was dead The old man smote his breast
and entered his house, lie never left it again

rich.

weeds grow nosl luXuriantly in the soil to
which they are natural: if any of them are
left, they will outgrow the plant you intend
to cultivate, and take up the greatest guam
ti,y of the manure laid on the land.
The properties Of the mineral matter OF
which soils are composed, are very various,
this variety depending on the nature of the
subsoll, as we have elsewhere shown but
as it is only where soils have the mineral in
gradients in a certain proportion, that they
arc capable of imbibing moisture from the
atmosphere, of holding the rain which falls
on it, and transmitting il to plants as they
require it. OF imbibing and retaining heat,
and of readily dccomposng vegetable mat
ter, which makes up the most valuable soil.
A knowledge Of these particulars is of the
greatest moment TO the agriculurst; by it
he will be able to improve the texture Of the
soil, by adding to it the mineral substance OF
which it is deficient, SO as permanently to
improve it.
To anor the nature and properties of the
constituents of any soil, may be more cx-
pensivc than to manure it; but the etiec. OF
the former will be lasting, while that of the
latter is transitory; the one permanently
improves the nature and quality of the soil,
the other only imparts temporary excite
mcnt to force a crop for year or two.
The materials necessary for the permanent
| improvement of the soil arc seldom far off,
and the expense, though in some instances
considerable, is soon repaid by the perma-
ncncy of its increased fertility; the manure
applied afterwards has much greater effect
! the expense of cultvat on is greatly diminish.
cd, and the capital laid out is soon restored
by its yearly increased produce. By these
alterations we store the earth with bidder
and incxhaustibc treasures, which, invisible
to the eye, put forth their strength and give II
the evidence of their presence by the effects
produced on vegetation.
In the process Of vegetation, nature sup
plies soil, water, light and heat but the
matter composing the soil may not be in sucl
state as to receive an transmit these in sucl
quantities as will produce healthy vege
taton.
Man may regulate the supply by cultiva
ton, and by altering the texture OF the soil
When the materials of which the soil i
composed are in proper proportion, the sol
is most productive; when any one OF the il
gradients is in too great proportion, TIN
soil is unproductive.
Pure clay, slick, or lime, when alone, w
have before stated, is barren; but if they ar,
mixed together, having due portion 0
water, the influence of the sun and pro
per admission of air, (Which are the prim
movers in vegetable lifc,) fermentation
amongst the materials is crcated and if We
getable and animal manure in a state of de
composition be combined with these, the sol
which was sterile when separate, will becom
productive when combined, and this mxtur
ofma,crials and mechanical alteration wi
change the texture, and improve the qualit

there was one remaining note of ten thou
sand dollars that would fall due in a few days,
and he could devise no way to meet it. The
notice came from the bank, but three days
remained, and every resource failed The
first of these three days was spent in fruit
less attempts to borrow. The second was
as lruitlcsSly spent in trying TO force Il sale of
goods. Nobody had any money to lend
nobody had any money to purchase goods at
any price. Failure presented itself before
him with all its trightiuncss.
The day of grace arrived, and horror was
depicted on his countcnance. Mrs. W.
knew nothing Of his troubles, and on per-
ceiving him evidently in great distress of
mind, she insisted on knowing what was the
cause of his trouble. 1t was folly to conceal
his ruin from her, and he condesccndcd to
make her acquainted with the cause of his
misery.-llow much she inquired, will save
you from failure! Ten thousand dollars,
he replied will pay my last note IN bank;
but for want of this must suffer the disgrace
Of having my note protested, assign my pro-
perty for the benefit of my creditors, and
suffer my name to 90 to the world bank
rupt Is this all said she. Why bless me,
l
my dear said Mrs. W., can supply you
that sum without going out Of the house,
Not waiting to hear the question he was pre-
pared to ask, she tripped up stairs and in less
time than have occupied in telling the sto-
ry, she returned with seventeen thousand dol
lars all in change, which she had saved with
in few years from hel daily allowance OF
market money.
Al who heard the recital of this circum-
stance by the friend of Mrs. w. were high
ly delighted with it, save one sharp-nozed
slab-sided yankee, who would not believe
though an angel had told it, till he had appli-
ed the test of figures to it TO ascertain its pro-
liability. As he finished his calculations and
was in the act Of returning his pencil to his
pocket, he burst into roar of laughter. All
eyes were turned upon him, and the narrator
demanded what he meant by such uncivi
department.. 'Nothin' at all Stranger said
