For the Voice of Freedom.

LINES ON SEEING A MOTTO "GOD IS LOVE
Yes, God is love, if 'twcro not so,
All nature would sink in darkness and wo;
His love extends DER land and sea,
? And keeps his laws in harmony
The love of Cod when e'or half told,
Is of more value than all India's gold,-
More precious than ships of merchandise,
And mora passport to the skies
Yes, God is love, while here below we stay,
And when in death We pass away,
His love our pillow there shall be,
Throughout long eternity.
Seek then this love, my dearest friend,
And here let all thy wishes end,
That none may feel the Christening rod,
But all may know the love of God.

The owner of the works sends them word
through the newspapers that as they have
discharged themselves, he will dispense with
their services, & put the slaves in their places.
The matter is exciting some feeling, and the
proprietor of the works appeals to the public
to sustain him in resisting what he calls "the
boldest attack upon slave labor,a and the rights
of the citizen, ever before made in a slave
State"-,SuL Post.

Directions for Scoring SeedS.-The complaints
which are sometimes made of the failure of
seeds, are as frequently owing to unreasonable
and improper management in sowing, and
to other circumstances attending their veget-
alton, as to the bad quality of the seeds The
freshest seeds of some kinds often fail TO vege-
tate, from different causes. When sown too carly,
while the ground is cold and wet, they are fire.
quently chilled and rot before sproutng; or if
sown deep, they are likely to rot or if sown too
shallow in dry time they may be dried up and
killed by the hot sun after they have sproued, or
have not had sufficient moisture to swell them
The kinds which vegetate well are frequently
destroyed by insects before, or very soon after
they appear above ground The first care in SOW
ing seeds should be, to select the proper season
and state Of the earth, and then to place them
just so far beneath the surface of the soil as to
secure them proper supply of moisture, In
general, seeds require more or less depth, accord
ing to their size The smallest seeds should be
sown very shallow in fine earth, and pressed or
rolled down; and if the beds are covered with
mat, or otherwise shaded, they will sprout sooner
and with more certainty. Soaking in warm wa
ter, and rolling the ground after sowing, very
much hasten the vegetation Of such seeds as are
OF hard dry nature. 1t is always safest to
prove seeds before sowing large quantity, which
may be done by sowing a few in Aower-pot, and
keeping warm and moist Or by putting the seeds
between two turts, placed in the chimney corner,
and occasionally moistened with warm water
Seeds that will not sprout in a reasonable time,
treated In this manner are bad and the fault will
be attributed to the true cause

Eleventh Agricultural Meeting,
Al the State House, March 80,

III tie State House, lHdrch 80.
Hon VIM B. Calhoun, President, in the
chair. Subiect-Profts Of Farming, continu-
ed
In connection with the subject the following
resolution offered a few weeks since by MAJOR
Wheeler, was under consideration.
Resolved, That, in the opinion Of this meet
ing, immediate measures ought to be taken by
our colleges and other literary institutions to
give direct and positive instruction in the art and
science of agriculture,
Hon John c. Gray of Boston, spoke to the re-
solution. He said that he had written and spok-
en- in favor of the plan recommended in the re-
solution and professorshp has been establish
ed at the oldest university in the country, Har-
ward, in which the practical sciences would be
taught, which he supposed would include in
struction in agriculture. He spoke Of the mass
of matter that had been published on agriculture
and ofthe many errors in years past of late it
had been different. He spoke Of the difficulty of
getting good works on farming, as practical men
were not scholars, and scholars were mere the
orists
Hon. Mr. Starkweather said that some years
ago a Mr.. Busy who owned fine estate in this
vicinity left large legacy for the establishment
of farm school, and he inquired, what was done
IN tins respect 10 this no definite answer was
given
Hon. Mr. Calhoun SAID, that there was only
an attempt to establish an agricultural professor
ship at Amherst College, which had failed for
want OF funds, but by the and lately obtained from
the State ne thought the plan would gol INTO exc
cutlon and that pattern farm would be con-
nected with the college. The board Of that IN
stItntlon were very DESTROYS to accomplish this,
and ne thought they would now be able to do It,
On motion the resolution was adopted.
