But on whose care does the sound of"Saturday
night" strike more pleasantly than the devoted
Christian? Here he looks up amid the blessings
showered upon him, and thanks God with humble
reverence for their continuance.
His waiting soul looks forward to that morn
when, sweetly smiling, the great RedeemeI burst
deaths portals and completed mans redemption.
His willing soul expands at the thought of waiting
on God in the sanctuary on the coming day; and
gladly forgets the narrow bounds of time and its
concerns, save spiritual, that he may feast on joys
ever new-ever beautiful-ever g~lorious-ever
sufficient to ~statiate the joyfraught soul that right
ly seeks its aid.
1t leads him to the Lamb of God for protection;
and nationally points out the way to joys on high
AN endless Sabbath perpetual rest for the
vigilant, the watchful, the faithful.

Mode of Harvesting Buckwheat.

Mr.. E. Freeman, of birmingham. has rails
ed Il beautiful field Of buck wheat on some Of
his lightest, poorest land. In April he sowed
this land with a bushel of rye TO the acre,
and in the last of June he buried all this rye
with his piongh using 4 foot in the beam,
lay the straw rye fiat, so that it might DO
buried in the furrow. He snwed buckwheaf,
enc busheI 70 the acre, and it was his inten.
ton TO plough in the buckwheat straw in
August as he had done the rye; but when
he saw what a harvest of buckwheat hs
might have he hesitated about turning INTO
manure. On seeing it, our advice was to
save the grain. and keep the same field for
buckwheat next summer as the land is not
suitable for large crops Of grass being too
light AMI porus 10 hold either rnoisturc or
manure.
Mr.. F. concluded to take that course,
and he began to harvest his wheat by now.
ing it with a common scvthe. Afterwards
he engaged a man to cut it with a gram era
diet was thus laid in gavels like rye or
oats-without sufferin: it to lie long in the
gavel, he raked it into heaps Of the size Of
common bundles, and then-withoM binding
he set these bundles on one end to let the
tops dry, and the boards Of the grain held the
whole bundle together sufficiently strong TO-
keep the grain from the ground.
1t was Mr.. Freeman's calculation to- let
these bundles stand two or three days then
cart them and thresh out the grain immediate
ly, before it should gather any moisture from
the straw. ANDY we are inclined to think this
the best mode Of harvesting this valuable
grain. If we NOW it with a common scythe,
we ms rake over the whole ground, and the
grain shells out SO easily, we lose some every
time we stir it-these bundles stand up 30
well they need not be moved or stirred until
they are dry enough TO be Garfield and they
need not be moved but once. No binding or
%unbinding is necessary, and the expense Of
harvesting is no, half so great as the harssstr-
ing Of common wheat. Mr.. Freeman viii
probably have thirtysbushels to the acre.

READING AND STUDY.

One Of the great defects of selftraining at the
present day is, that there is much more reading
than study. Both Of those arc indispensable to
their proper relations, but neither of them can
take the place of the other. Reading is necessa-
ry to furnish us with the facts of the present and
former ages; it gives US the materials of thought;
it directs our minds; without much effort on our
part, into new and delightful channels, and thus
perfects our taste and forms our style; and it al
fords, at a cheap rate, a high and mental luxury.
But reading is not study. A man might read a
world of books, and good books too, and yet not
possess the shadow of a claim to scholarship
A trained mind, a thoroughly educated mind, is
the product only of study. Every person should
devote some portion of his time to the acquisition
Of a definite branch of knowledge, and he should
set about it with a full purpose to master the
subject; and he would superinduce those habits
of mental discipline and self-control-that facili-
ty in consecutive inquiries, which would pre-
pare him to grasp, and a~nalize, and comprehend
other subjects. This is a business that every
man must do for himself. No school or college
can perform it for him, no learned professor or
public lecturer can point out any royal road in
these a~ttainments. But | must add, that there is
much more light reading at the present day than
solid.
We believe in an age of book-making, and it
would be but common praise TO say that the pro-
ductions of the age are read-they are literally
dcvourcd. But many of these productions are
of a light and trivial character, and successive
ones are becoming more so. The popular novels
of the day, for example began with the 'Great
Unknown" and they are likely to end, if an
everlasting thread could have an end, with the
writings of every ''little well-known,' on both
sides of the Atlantic. For these illusions, and
those of certain modern bards who have whipped
the materials of poetry into froth and foam, the
standard English classics in prose and verse
must be laid aside; and these mere comets-you
may add blazing, if you please, for they afford
not only scintilations, but flames Of genius now
and then-are to be the intellectual polar star to
direct on the ocean of life, the bark that carries
the rising generation. The whole class of wri-
tings which constitute what may be called the
"Pickwick" literature, while it contains fine
touches in that kind of description in which it
abounds, is of very doubtful intellectual tenden-
cy. 1t is a little like dining on pepper and salt,
and terminating the feast with a whip-syllabub
for a desert.-Dr. Beman.

Eccentricities of Men Of Genius.

MANY have exhibited fcibles and vices in pro-
portion to the magnitude of the talents by which
they were raised above other men, lest perhaps
they might carry themselves too much above
common humanity. Pope was an epicure, and
would be in bed at Lord Bolingbroke's for days,
unless he was told there were stewed iampreys
for dinner, when he rose instantly, and came to
the fable. Even Sir Isaac Newton gave credit
to the idle nonsense of Judicial astrology; he
,vb, fret calculated the distances of the stars,
and revealed the laws of motion by which the
Supreme Being organizes and keeps IN their or
hits unnumbered worlds; he who revealed the
mysteries of the stars themselves. Dryden, Sir
Isaac Newton's contemporary, believed in the
same absurday. The great Duke of Marlbor-
ouob. when visited by Prince Eugene on the
n;obt before a battle, when no doubt the two
renerals were in consultation upon a measure
that might decide the fate Of an empire, was heard

NIGHT.

How many associations, sweet and hallowed,
crowd around that short sentence, Saturday
night" 1t is indeed but the prelude TO more
pure, more holy, more heavenly association, which
the tired frame and thankful soul halls with new
and renewed Joy at each succeeding return.
1t is then the din of busy life ceases;-that
cares and al,xieties are forgotton;-that the worn
out frame seeks its needed reposc, and the mind
its relaxation from earth and its conccrns-with
joy looking to the coming day of a rest, so wise
" and beneficiently set apart for mans peace
and happiness by the great Creator.
The tired laborer seeks now his own neat cot
tage, to which he had been stranger perhaps
the past week where a loving wife and smiling
children meet HIM with smiles and caresses.
Here he realizes the bliss of hard-earned COM
forts; and at this time, perhaps, more than any
other, the happiness of domestic life and its at
tendant blessings.
Released from the distracting cares ofthe week,
the professional man gladly beholds the return Of
Saturday night" and as gladly seeks in the clus-
tering vines nourished by his parental care, the
reality of those joys which are only his to know
at these peculiar seasons and under these congo
NAL circumstances faithfully and wildly evin-
ced by this periodical acme of enjoyment and
repose.
The lone widow, too, who has toiled on, day
after day, to support her little charge-now CRATE
fully does she resign her cares at the return Of
Saturday night and thank her God for these
kind resting places in the way of life, by which
she is encouraged from week to week to hold on
her way.

Domestic Training.

Permit me TO say to those mothers who inter-
est themselves in the education oftheir children,
be assiduous early to implant domestic tastes in
the minds of your daughters. Let your little
girl sit by your side with her needle. Do not
put her from you when you discharge those en-
ployments which are for the comfort of the family.
Let her take part in them as far as her feeble
hand is capable. Teach her that this will be her
province when she becomes a woman. Inspire
her with a desire to make all around her comfort
able and happy. Instruct her in the rudirnents
of that science whose results arc so beautiful
Teach her that not selfish qualification, OF even
the humblest dependant, is the business of her
sex. When she questions you, repay her curl
os:ty with clear and loving explanations. When
you walk out to call on your friends, sometimes
take her with you. Especially if you visit the
aged, or 60 on errands of mercy to the sick and
poor, let her be your companion. Allow her to
sit by the side of the sufferer, and learn those
nursing services which afford relief to PAIN
Associate her with you. Make her your friend.
Purify and perfect your own example for her
sake. And while you mingle with domestic
training and with the germ Of benevolence, q
knowledge of the world of books, to which it will
