What! never be sad7 Shall we always be gay

Say, shall we not weep for our brethren :,

IT'S we'll to be happy and ne'er 10 be sad,
Yet here where such sorrows are seen,
That heart which at all times is joyous and
glad.
Little sympathy hath it. ween.
'Tis well that tear should many times fow,

For our hearts fond affections when outward
Are often expressed in tear.
Tie young may no, weep, yet the aged can

Though smile makes the hear, TO seem

Tha, thought, of the pas, that within US do
dwell

When the tic Of affection seems suudered in

When the soul hath ascenGed on high,
When with Us are those who have labored in

To save-is it wrong then 10 sigh7
That friend may be far more happy than we.
Yet We cannot restrain the full tear,
That will fow when We think, though happy,
he be,
No more shall we meet with him here.
There's time for laugh, time to be gay.
A time when :hc heart should o'erhow
With raPturous mrth, in joyous way.
There's q time for all this as know
Yet there is a time when we should be sad,
When tears should freely fall,
We cannot in life be always glad,
Sinee to weep is the lot OF oil.

THE COMMON LOT.
by MONTGOMERY.

Oneo in the fight OF ages past
There lived a man-and WHO vas her
Mortal! howe'er thy lot be cast.
That man resembed thee,
Unknown the ion of his birth.
Tho land in which he died unknown,
His name hath perished from the earth,
This truth survives alone:
That JOY. and grie., and hope and fear.
Alternate triumphed in his breast;
His bliss and woe, smile, a tear!
Oblivion hides the rest,
Tho bounding pulse, the languid limb,
The changing spirits rise and fall,
We know that these we're felt by him,
For THESE are felt by all.
He suffered-but his pangs are DER,
Enioyed-but his delights are fed,
Had friends-his friends are now no more,
And foes-his fees are dead
He loved-but whom he loved, The grave
Hath lost in its unconscious womb;
0 chs was fair! but nought could save
Her beauty from the tomb
The rolling seasons, day and night,
Sun, moon and stars, the earth and main
Ere while his portion, life and light.
To him exist-in vain.
lie saw whatever thou hast seen,
Encountered all that troubles thee.
He was-whatever thou has been,
He is-what thou shalt be.
The clouds and sunbcan,s DER his eve
That once theit shade aud glory threw
Have left in yonoer silent sky
No vestige where they flew
The annals oc the human race,
Their ruin since the world began
OF HIN afford no other trac,
Than this-THERr LIVED A Mas.

Agricultural INVESTIGATIONS.

Exercises of the mind, IN rejecting
upon the course of nature, and the pro.
cesses of cultivation are of vast benefit.
When the various crops in the field are
made matters of study, they possess a
value and interest distinct from the amount
of money they bring in. They become
ones teachers; they give him lessons TO
be treasured up and used; and it is those
only who seek TO learn and benefit BY
these lessons, who really are intelligent
and exemplary farmers. few, by dlnt
of unwearied toll, from year to year, and
by a sou.-pinching pazsimony, may get
money; and this, too, without observing
any lessons, excepting a few brief ones
which were inculcated by others while
they were young. But those who stick
10 the old way, through thick and thin,
for no other reason than because it is the
old way, are not good farmers; they are
little more than common laborers, who
by dint Of perseverance get some money,
but little else worth having. We are not
ridculng the old ways, but only saying
they should be compared with new ones.
That the old are, in many cases, the best,
is undoubtedly true. If IS only by com
pairing them, that one can justify himself
fairly and properly, which path will lead
him most directly to the desired object.

Ifin the hill, will you have it below or

Do you cut the seed or plant it whole!
Do you put the seed deep in the earth,
