WISCONSIN FLAX.

Our state, we are glad TO know, will not be
wholly unrepresented at the Worlds Fair. We
saw, yesterday, very beautiful specimen of
dressed flax, from the "Symington Flax Facto-
~" of Mr.. GALBRAIrH, in Waukesha county,
which our felow-citizen, Mr.. FERGUSON, intends
To take with him TO London. Mr.. Galbraith SAYS
that IN color and texture the sample of Flax will
compare tavorably with the best quality of Irish
Flax. We are glad to know that Mr.. Galbraith's
attempts at the culture Of Flax have proSpered
abundantly. The crop, for the three years he
has tried IT, has averaged much better in its YIELD
and in the price it has brought. than Wheat, or
anv other grain. There is no waste about il,
and the demand for the article is steadily on the
increase Mr. Galbraith has orders. now, from
Cohoes, n. Y, and from Boston, for all the
dressed Flax he can make. Last year he put in
100 acres in Flax, and he proposes to DO as much
this wear. We hope that others of our Farmers
NAV profit BY his instructions and follow his ex-
ample Hitherto Agriculture in Wisconsin has
been too much confined to one single object, the
raising ofWheat As 4 consequence, the tall
ure of the wheat crop has cast blight upon the
whole state, admonishing our farmers Of the alb
solute necessity, if they would prosper of diver
sifying their crops. Three such lessons have
been read us in the last three years; not, we
hope, wholly in yain.-SeHt. j. Gd:.

Music of Nature i'm Norway.

Still as everything is to the eve, sometimes
for hundred miles together, along these deem
sea valleys, there is rarely silence. The ear is
Kept awake by thousands of voices. In the sum-
mer there are cataracts leaping from ledge to
ledge OF the rocks, and there is the bleatinp Of
the Kids that browse there, and the flap of the
great eagles wings, as it dashes abroad from its
eyrc, and the cries of whole clouds of sea birds
which lRhabit the isles and all of these sounds
are mingled and multiplied by the strong echoes,
unul they become din as lond as that of a CITY.
Even at night, when the flocks are in the told
and the birds at roost, and the echoes themselves
seem to be asleep, there is occasionally sweet
music heard, too soft for even the lstenino ear TO
catch by day. Every breath of summer wind
that steals through the pine forests wakens this
music as it goes. The stiff spinv leaves Of the
hr and pine vibrate with the breeze, like the
strings of musical instrument so that every
breath OF the night-wnd in a Norwegian forest
wakens myriad of tiny harps, and this gentle
and mourutul music may be head in gushes, the
whole night through. This music of course
ceases when each tree becomes laden with snow:
but yet there is a sound in the midst OF the long
est winter nights. There is rumbng of
some avalanche, after drifting Storm mass of
snow, to heavy to keep It's place, slides and tun.
oie from Ile mountain peak. There is also, now
and then a loud crack of the nearest glacier
and, as many declare, there is cracking to be
heard by those who listen, when the northern
lights are shooting and blazing across the sky
Nor is this all. Whenever there is a nook be.
tween the rocks on the shore where man NAV
build house and clear field or two-when-
ever there is platform beside the cataract where
the sawyer may plant his mill, and make a path
to Join some road, there is a human habitation.
and the sounds that belongs to it thence in the
winter nights come music and laughter, and the
tread of dancers, and the hum Of many voices.
The Norwegians are a sociable and hospitable
people; and they hold their gay meetings in de-
tiance of their Arctic climate, through every sea-
son of the year.-Electic journal Of Education
and Literary Rerieto.
