THE IMPORTANCE OF KNOWLEDGE
TO THE FARMER.

There is no branch of business within our
knowledge, which requires, for It's most sue
cessful prosecution, SO great an amount of
scientific information as farming. The prac-
teal farmer has something 10 do in all the
grand departments ofnature-in the vegeta-
BILE, animal and mineral kingdoms-with
organic and inorganic matter. 1t has been
remarked, with strict truth perhaps, that all
the energy of the Hero, and all the science
of the Philosopher, may find scope in the
cultivation of one farm! And il would indeed
require all this energy and science 10 bring

SLEEP AND DEATH.
ON The SWEDISH OF FREDERIKA BREMER

PROM The SWEDISH OF FREDERIKA BREMER.
In the wild woods, as closed the summers day,
A fair haired child had wandered far away;
Chasing gay butterflies and plucking flowers
Swiftly flew on the all UNDECIDED hours.
At last the lost one sal him down and wspt,
While evenings shadows o'er the landscape
crept, =4. = hsar.--
In vain the eyes where mirth SO lately shone,
Looked through big tears to find some loving
N % more his mothers voice, in accents mild.
Called to his happy home her darling child;
Vanly the birds their cheerful music gave,
Vainly the flowers their perfumed banners wave
Sad is the infants heart no Joy he sees
In smiling flowers or birds amongst the trees.
Darkly fell night, and with her came to gaze
Two gloomy forms-by the dim starlight rays
They looked on the child, his heaving breast
And fearful eyes his sorrow we'll expressed;
The pity moving in the heart of each.
The shadowy forms expressed their thoughts in
Speech;
Sleep spoke the first in accents mild and still,
AS gentle as the murmuring of rill:
81 can give to this saddened breast
Many an hour of happy rest;
On his eyes | will lay dream,
And all things bea utiful shall seem;
The curtains ofhis couch shall be
Forgetfulness of misery;
The night winds to his charmed ear -..
Shall sound like words he loves to hear;
Aud love shall fan his aching brow,
And sing of peace, in accents low;
Him Pity, with found caress, 1
Shall gently to her bosom press o. -s7Ta
Thus in sweet slumbers free from pain,
His smiles shall all come back again.' 2ls
Then asked Death, the shadow grim,
"Canst thou do nought but this for him? .-.i
From thy transient joys he will wake to
mourn,
And his smiles shall fee and never return.
But in the land where grief is never known,
This troubled spirit will make my own;
There fall no tears there no said hearts are
found;
Eternal quiet reighneth all around,
And those dlmmed eyes, obscured by weeping
now,
Shell open to the glories faith can show:
No voice of wo shall ever shock the ear,
Celestial harmonies alone he'll hear;
Upon his brow the signetI viii place
That marks him destined for the glorious
race,
The gaOlOf which is Heaven, his happy home,
Where, once arrived, pains can ever come
There, through the cheerful day, the gentle
Shall breathe perfume; forms forever fair,
Knowing no blight of age, shall wander by
And chant the songs of love melodiousy. H
A spirit then, pure from all earthly stain,
Bright and eternal shall the child remain,
And with the angels join its infant voice,
And, happy thus, forever shall reloice.''
Then Sleep, the other shadow, wept to know g
How little were the gifts she could bestow; a
Death took the dear one in his arms, -
And gently hushed foreve. its alarms;
One look to earth-one faint expiring sigh 10
And the soul found its own true home on
high. at -

" The following condensed account of
Dickens humorous description of the twelve
months of the year, under the character of
the twelve Daughters, may be amusing TO
many o our readers:
The first is cold, stern, and unrelenting.
Her name is January. The second is very
diminutive in size, and is frequnetly worse
than January, and always as bad. Her name is
February. The third is spiteful in disposition,
bolsterous in temper, and passionate in the
extreme. Her name is March. The fourth
is capricious, and hayward as an infant;
now all sunny with SMILES; then absorbed in
tears. Her name is April The fifth is a
bright and laughing virgin, whose hours Of
mirth are seldom invaded, and whose plea
sure is the cultivation ofsweet flowers. Her
name is May. The sixth is more serious
and sedate; she delights in shady groves,
where she reads or meditates at her leasure.
Her name is June. The seventh is hot fiery
and voluptuous; seeking in vain 10 quench
her thirst of pleasure. He name is july
The eighthisa maiden, whose looks bespeak
that mellowness which is also 10 be found in
the fruits that hang over the bowers, or in the
harversts, the gatheing of which she loves to
superlntend. Her name is August The
ninth is staid and matronly in department
combining the remains of the passions of
youth with the discretion and reserve of ma
ture years. He name is September. The
tenth is uncertain and mysterious in her con
duct; at one moment sportiVe and gay; at
another dismal and frawning. Her name is
October The eleventh is unacceptable and
cherrless, frigid and cold in her manners, &c.
Her name is November. The twelfth is a
miserable and shrivelled creature, dressed
in furs and slipping at every sthp. Her name
| is December.

In after years, that lady was called TO en-.

her heart was almost crushed within her; but
often when she was ready to sink in despair,
the sleeping words Of that unknown widow,

sleepless night, when she learned to say, Well!
well! my heart is breaking, but the Lord is

DUELING.

Our New Orleans correspondence few
days since, COVE the particulars of duel in
that city, in which Mr.. Kane recently of
Kentucky was killed. On this painful result
the Picayune thus speaks: 1gs
The sensabilities of a young and old were
shocked by the fatal sequel TO controversy
that had its origin in misunderstanding that
occurred amid gayety and rejoicing. 1t was
known TO but few that at festival where
brave men and beautiful women Wed with
one another 10 give eclat 10 scene of So
cial brilliancy, trouble arose betwixt two
that were to each other strangers, AS nei-
Their party knew the other, there could have
been no malice between them; but the Incl
dent came within the cognizance ofa code
whose dispensations are written in blood.
OF these two, what now is left? The one
speaketh not--the other mourner. s
Where tia concern only of the victim and
the survivor, the result might be passed over
as hazard lost and won ;but mankind claim
to be heard upon judgments that impoverish
society. Charity will speak in behalf ofthose
whose hearts have been made desolate. Afar
of, and revelling in the expectation of the
future usefulness and dignity of his son, is
the father Of the unfortunate Kane. Who
,.,;JI aaII L;,,, tb;e1 III :, Ill c,u &c c.a.l
works. We know him we'll. A life of in
dustry, and one singularly modest and pure,
acquired for him comfortable competency,
and, what is of greater value, an enyiable
share of the respect and esteem of his fellow
men. From the savings and pains-takings
of years he has educated his children for the
highest positions in society. The young man
who has fallen was the apple ofhis eye. The
early indications of talent IN the son filled
the old mans heart with shopefuIlness of
greater things. His daily toll was sweeten-
ed by the consolation that the fruits of in
dustry would enable him to place his boy on
the high road TO renown and advancement.
His care provided for his moral as we'll as
intellectual culture. There is none TO say
that these parental and noble efforts were
wasted upon the mind or heart of young
Kane, He grew up in the ways of virtue
he trod continually the paths of increase
But on the door sill of the temple of Fame
he has heen met by the ministry of another
worship. His accomplishments and good
gifts were but decorations for the sacrifice.
He is gone; and who will tell his poor
old father that his son is not?
There may be, in the things that are IN
seen, balm for the mother'swoe She may
find, in the faith that hopeth ever, a consola-
ton that the world may not furnish. Relig-
ion may shed healing from her wings into
the heart that is sorely bruised. But there
is no help in human sympathy for woes like
this. There is mercy for them that have
seats in the sanctuary. May it come TO her
abundantly, for surely of the daughters of
affection there is none who need it so griev-
ously.
