AGRICULTURAL.

hndiGn Corn for Selling and Fodder.
We doubt whether the value of Indian
corn is more than half known yet among
the generality of farmers; and if thc.unpar-
alleled. drought throughout the country last
summer should have tendency TO teach
it TO them, the terrible lesson may be look
ed upon as mercy rather than scourge
from beni6cent Notwithstanding the
past eight months thousands of animals
have persisted or been sacrificed for want
Of grass or fodder to sustain them, all of
which might have been saved and kept In
= good condition.; had each farmer sown a
few acres Of corn for soiling, and fodder.
We saw last summer, on light sandy soil.
q crop of corn growing, which turned out
elk tons of excellent dry fodder per acre.
It was sown on the first day of July, in
drills three feet apart. The land was
ploughed deep. and highly MANFRED.
This crop was the means of saving su-
perior herd of cows from starvation.
Henceforth however promising the grass
and hay crop may be, let no farmer depend
entirely upon it, but let him sow few
acres OF corn for summer soiling, or to be
cured for a winters use. He will then
be tolerable independent Of a capricious
season.
When corn is tolerably advanced in its
growth it completely shades the ground,
and the drought will have little effect upon
it. A larger crop may usually be grown in
drills than when sown broad cast and il
these drIAs be two and half feet apart.
we believe it will be found better than
nearer, especially in very dry sea-
son, as the cultvator can be often run be-
tween the rows stirring the ground effec-
tuaIly, neutralzing in measure the effects
os wet and dry weather. We recommend
sowing at least one acre of corn for every
FIVE head Of cattle kept on the farm. II
there be an overplus of hay, it is very. ca
silly disposed oE.-.Am Agriculturist.

THE LIFE CLOCK.

<
TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN.
There is little mystic clock,
No human eye hath seen;
That beateth on-and beateth On,
From morning until cen.
And when the soul is wrapped in sleep,
And heareth not a sound,
Il ticks and ticks the livelong night,
And never runneth down.
o wondrous in that work of art
Which knells the passing hour,
But art ne'er formed, nor mind conceived,
The life clocks magic power.
Nor set in gold, nor decked with gems
By wealth and pride possessed;
But rich or poor, or high or low,
Each bears it in his breast.
When life's deep stream, mid beds of flowers,
All still and softly gldes,
Like the wavelet's step, with gentle beat,
1t warns of passing tides.
When threat ming darkness gathers DER,
And Hopes bright visions flee,
Like the sullen stroke of the muffied oar,
1t beateth heavily,
Where passion nerves the warriors arm
For deeds of hate and wrong,
Though needed not the fearful sound,
The knell is deep and strong.
When eyes to eyes are gazing soft,
And tender words ure spoken,
Then fast and wild it rattles on,
AS if with love.'twere broken.
Such il the clock that measures life,
Of flesh and spirit blended;
And shus twill run within the breast,
Till that strange life is ended.

Intemperance, the great enemy to prosperity and
happiness, is exertng wide influence throughout
the country. 1t is a gro,vi,1g evil, and is daily
destroying the Eres, to say nothing of the COM
forts, of thousands of the human family, notwith-
standing the efforts that have been made, and are
still being made, towards its suppression. One
principal reason why this great evil is sill permit
ted to exist to alarming extent, is, that the ex-
ertions of the friends of the Temperance cause
have been confined principally to cities and towns,
while villages and the country at large, are almost
entirely neglected. A cheap temperance newspa-

THE TARIFF RuJ.

Several efforts have been made in the House oil
Representatives to obtain and print copy of the
revenue bill, which has been prepared for the
Committce of Ways and Means The chairman
(Gen. Mckay has opposed the motion, and it has
been voted down. This seems the proper decis-
ion, when recollect the position of the whole
question The bill. if we may even Judge from
the analysis of it which has been printed in many
of the papers, is, in many respects, framed with
great discretion and skill. The Secretary did
we'll in calling in the assistance of gentlemen who
were experienced in the customs The result
is bill, which, on account of its simplicity alone,
is far better than the act of ls42. The average
of duties is estimated not to exceed 20 per cent
A lower rate would scarcely yield revenue suffi-
cient to pay the expenses Of the government econ
omically administered But the bill, as it now
stands before the committee, is mere proiek
1t is far from having received the last touch of the
ITSELF 1t is subject to modification in
their hands 1t is destined, perhaps to receive
several changes before it is reported 10 the House
We wish that those notifications may be caIcu-
lated to improve The bill. The committee must
use great circumspection and frmncss to prevent
any change for the worse, though we by no
means expect such bill is perfect as it came from
the bureau Of the Secretary. H.
