Plant for the BrSt,

There is no way i'll which so great an i'm
provement can be made, and with so little ex-
pense, as in cultivating the best kinds of trees
and plants, therefore the farmer should aim to
get the best of everything-trees, plants and
vegetables. Some animals will produce nearly
twice as much flesh or dairy products, on the
same food as others. Some trees yield twice as
much fruit as others, and SO great is the differ
ence in fruit, that some kinds sell at doll ar OF
half dollar bushe, while other varieties will
bring ten dollars busheI. Some pears retail
at a cent piece or less, others at IL l-2 or Is
cents each
Some potatoes yield twice as much as others,
and some aie worth twice as much as other
kinds, as to quality; and those that yield the
least are not always the best, though this is
often the case for early use, while those yielding
largely, are often best for spring and summer.
Some kinds of corn produce large stalks and
cobs, and but little corn. With other varieties
the reverse is the case; and with little attention
farmer may, from the vast number of varieties
in the country and the advantage of producing
new varieties, or modifying old ones, get some
to suit himself, in the shape and size of the ear,
early or lae, with quality that suits, as abound
ing in oil, starch, &c. Farmers should be eau
tious and pursue the most economical modes OF
improvement, and at harvest select the best, and
in spring plant the best-BostOn CWItiUatOr.

The Church.

We are DESTROYS, nay we make it our study,
to say and do nothing which shall weaken, in a.
ny way the religious spirit of our land; for on
that we must stand, else we shall surely perish.
Yet no man looking abroad, or at home, can
fail to see that the Church, in many respects, is
not only falling behind out door workers, but
sadly neglecting, matters of moment
matters which will concern us all now and
hereafter Whence so many benevolent socie-
ties Why are the sons of Temperance, and
so many benevolent institutions called into exis-
tence! Do we not a know-must not every
man admit, if the Church did its whole duty,
that it would embrace necessarily all the ends
which these societies propose to reach. and be,
itself, the temple of peace, temperance, benevo-
lence, of living and true brotherhood? To
stimulate its ministers and professors to this high
endeavor-to make them aspire after power
which will clothe the looped raggedness of poy-
erty and pauperism, and roll back the tide of
crime that swells up, threateningly, against eve
ny household; we speak to them in our humble
way, with directness and earnest anxiety.
There are thousands among US who Judge re-
ligon by those who profess it. There are hun
dreds of thousands, who, when they see mem
bers Of the Church doing, or not doing, feel as
if they were privileged to act as they act. What
a responsibility How careful all religious men
should be to meet it! Yet who among them
brayely lives up to the standard cur Saviour set,
and honestly bids the world to follow it?

John Quincy Adams.

His career was more glorious than q conqucror's
though in it he may not have conquered. know few
things greater in modern times than this old man, the
compeer OF Washington, man who had acquitted
himself ably IN the stormy times OF the French Rcvo-
luton, who held the highest office in any nations Gift
the of President, and himself President, stand
ing up a champion of the oppressed. There is no
nobler sight than when on his going into the Supreme
Court, after thirty years Of absence, the advocate
OF body Of trlendeSs negroes unjusty held in hral
he asked those venerable iudgese to excuse him from
both the trembling of old age and the nexpeence OF
youth, the man having lived so long that lie had for
gotten the rules of the Court. When he summed up
the whole NATTER and brought before those judicial
yet moistenng eyes, the great men whom he had once
met there Chase, Cushing, Martin, Marshall himself
when he remembered that those men were all gone
from and forgotten in the seats of Justice, and the
eternal justice that is gono then the sght-was
more than grcat it was the sublimc5 spectacle in our
history for more than fifty years 1t was not the old
Roman patrican who had been Consul and Dictator
come to stand in the forum to raise eyics for new
victories, but was free man Of America, who has
held an Office greater than consul, king or dictator
come to plead for the slave for the barbarian negro d
Africa, for Cinquez and Montcz, comparing them tc
llarmodius and Arstogeon, those patriots Of Athens
whose memory made every heart thrill. 1t was wortl
living fourscore years for that
When lie stood in the House of Representatives as
the champion of the rights of the minority, he stood
there single and alone. Frederick the Great seemed
doubly magnificent when he commended against Aus
tra, France England and Russia, ana kept them all al
bay provided you do not look at his object But if YOU
do, Frederick the Great becomes Frederick the little
and Mr. Adams becomes the great, for he fought not
for kingdom not for fame, but for justice, eternal right
lie fought too with weapons tempered in heavenly
stream.
