Agriculture as a Science.

.1H knortcdge Is founded on experience; in the
infancy iany art, experience IS confined, and
knowledge limited, 10 a few particulars; but as
arts are improved and extended, great number
OF facts become known, and the generalization Of
these, or the arrangement Of them according to
some leading principles, constitutes the theory,
laws, or science Of an art.
Agriculture, in common with other arts, may
be practlsed without any knowledge off. its theo-
ry; that u.s. established prac, ces may be initiated
but IN tins case it must ever remain stationary.
The mere routine practitioner cannot advance
beyond the limits OF his own particular cxpcr-
fence, and neither derive instruction from such
accidents us are favourable TO his object, nor
guard against recurrence of such as are unia-
vourable He can have no les, urces for unseen
events but ordinary cxpedicnts, while the man
OF, science resorts to general principles-refers
events to their true causes, and adopts his mea-
surcs 10 meet every case.
The object of the art Of agriculture is to in
crease the quantity and improve the quality
OF such vegetables and animal productions
of the earth as are used by civilized men; and
the object of the agriculturst is, to do this with
the least expenditure of means, in other words,
profit The result of the exper fence of
mankind as to the other objects may be
conveyed to an inquiring mind in two ways: he
may be instructed in the practical operations Of
the art, and their theory, or the reasons on which
they are founded laid down and explained to
him as he goes along or he may be first instruc-
ted in general principles, and then in the prac-
tees which flow from them.
The former mode is the natural and actual
mode IN which every art is acquired by such as
have no recourse to books, and may be compar-
ed to the natural mode Of acquiring language
without the study of its grammar. The latter
,1,t, o., Ii
culturist to proceed with the same kind of conf
dence and satisfaction in his practice, that a gra-
marian does il the Use Of language.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE-GREAT
LOSS OF PROPERTY.
From the N. Y. Express, June l, PIP. NJ

From the N. Y. Express, June l, PIP. NJ.
About half past four o'clock this morn
ing, a fire broke out in the large book
publishing establishment of Messrs. J. &.
J. tIarper,at No. 2S Cliff: between Ferry
and Frankfort streets. 1t is impossible To
ascertain the amount Of damage, but it is
estimated at between $4,000 and $780,
OOO. The amount Of insurance is some
thing like 100000, principally in the
Equitable, Bowery, Mutual Safety, Spring
Garden Of Philadelphia, and one of tho
Hartford offices, the name of which we did
not learn. The loss sustained is princi-
pally in stock; the building, with the ex-
ceplion Of the roof, is thought to be very
little injured. The presses are also sup
posed to have sustained but very slight
lnjury.-Their stock was unusually large,
and is, with the exception of few books
in the lower story totally destroyed.
The fire originated in the 9TH story, and
is beyond question the work Of an incen-
diary.
Mr.. Fletcher Harper, one of the firm,
who resides at 81 Cliff street, three doors
from the printing establishment, on being
alarmed by the cries of the women at the
next door, looked out Of the window and
saw the flames bursting from the roof of
the building. lie dressed himself as soon
as possible and proceeded to the office,
when he found the desk in the counting
room broken open and the fire raging in
the fourth story-lhe only place, Mr..
Harper thinks, where fire could have
been easily kindled. The premises had
been entered at the rear side window, and
the villains not finding any booty in the
desk, probably set fire TO the establish
ment for the purpose Of robbing those
who might assemble to witness and ex-
tinguish the fre.-IIad the fire occurred
in the night the damage must have been
much more extensive, as their large build
ings on the opposite side of the street,
containing by far the most valuable part
of their property, must also have been
consumed.

POETRY
A Song to Lyra.
{ For the Cecil Jthig.

Farewell to thee Lyra, the word has been spo-
ken,
The last tear is shed for tho last tie is broken,
The last lingering hope that my heart dared to
cherish,
Despair has supplaLted, and left thus to perish;
One Star has shonc brightly since strangers we
met,
But that star now forever in darkness is set,
One heart has been true to the love that was
plighted,
But that heart now is broken, its fond hopes are
blighted,
How fondly loved thee, ah words may not
tell,
Or the anguish that's brea tied in this last sad
farewell.
Farewell to thee Lyra, thou knowest the past
Has been sunny and bright, yes too bright to
last,
For while we were tasting the pleasures OF love,
we fancied our earth like to heaven above,
Forgetting the sorrows, nisfortunes, and fears,
That too often make it a clark vale of tears,n
Twas dream, but tits past, the illusion is DER,
The past has been bright-thsrc's u dark cloud
before;
Despair is demon-I'm under his spell,
Thou knowcst the reason, dear lyra farewell.
Farewell to thee Lyra, tho parted forever,
This heart shall forget thee, oh never, no never,
Though mem'ry awaken the sigh Of regret,
The heart that has loved strives in vain 10 forget
Farewell to thee Lyra, may pleasure attend thee,
Mny Virtue watch DER thee, and angels defend
thee,
May the Ioseate hue on thy Check ever glow,
And thy heart throb with bliss, that mine ne'er
Gun know,
Its deamiess derotion to thee has been given
I've loved thee on earth, may love thee in hoa-
ven.

FRANCE.
A deplorable catastrophe lately happen
cd on the Versailles and Mendem Rail-
way, by which 100 persons were killed,
and many wounded for life. The water
works in The gardens of Versailles were
playing in honor. Of the Kings fete, which
attracted immense crowds lit was Sum-
day. from Paris. There were II or
Is cars IN the train, md two engines be-
fore and one behind, travelling with ex-
cessive velocity. The axletree of the
first engine broke, and the second ran
over it, killing man, and smashing il to
pieces. and spilling it's fire on the ground.
Six or seven of the cars were broken to
pieces, and the others set on blaze by the
fire of the broken engines. /, is the prac-
llce there for the conductors to lock the
doors of the cars. The passengers wero
locked in, and no conductors were forth
coming, and this accounts for the awful
loss of life, as most of the kilIeC. were
burnt to death in the cars.
Another conspiracy to assassinate Louis
Philippe, has been detected, and many
persons are arrested.

An old tower situated in the town OF

Hellenic College and several houses were
destroyed. The water Of the springs and
wells became tlrbid, and all enormous
