MANLIKE AND GoDLIKE.-A gentleman
who had filed many high stations in public
life with the greatest honor to himself, and
advantage to the nation, once wen TO Sir
Eardly Wilmot in great anger at a real in
jury that he had received from a person
high in the political world, which he was
considering how to resent in the most effec-
tual manner. After relating the particu-
lars to Sir Eardly. he asked if he did not
think it would be manly to resent it ? Yes,
said Sir Eardly; it would doubtless be
manly to resent it, but it would be Godlikt
to forget it,

Amongst all compositions. these alone
deserve the name Of sacFed lyrics. These
alone contain a poetry hat meets the
spiritual nature in all its mools and in II
its wants. which strengthens virtue with
glorious exhibitions, gives angelic ell
oqneice TO prayer. and almost rises to
the seraph's joy in praise. In distress
and fear. they breathe the low. sad muir
muir Of complaint in p~enitence, they
groan with the agony ofthe troubled soul
! hey have a gentle music for the peace
Of faith; in alteration. they ascend TO the
glory Of creation. and the majesty OF God.
For assemblies or, for solitude. for all that
~gladdens and all that grieyes, for our
heaviness and despair. tor our remorse
and our redemptienl W. find these div ne
harmonies thr loud or the low express

world. They ~resounded amidst the
courts of the tabernacle they heated
through the lofty and solemn spaces
of the temple. They were sung with
sorrow by the streams of Babel. And
when Israel had passed away, the hatF
ofDavid was still awakened in the church
Of Christ. In allihe eFas and ages Of tina
church, from the hymn which first i
viii sPered in an upper chamber, until il.
anthems filed the earth, the inspiration
OF the royal prophet has enraptu ed il.

And thus it has been. not alone in the au
gust cathedral or the rustic chapel. Che
russed by the winds of heaven. they hav,
swelled through Gods own temple of tn
sky and stars they have rolled over th
{ broad desert of Asia, in the mathis an

A RIyULET'S SONG.


Just under an island. mid rushes and moss,

was shaded by trees, wliuse branches and
leaves
Meier suffered the sun to gaze through.
az wandered around the steep brow Of hill,
Where the daisies and vi0lets fair
Wefs shaking the mist from their waking eyes,
And pouring their breath on the air.

The bird IN return sang his merriest song
And showed me his fsathsTy crest.
"How joyous / felt in the bright afternoon,

Game out in red gold frum behind the green
trees
And FURNISHED my iremulous breast.
"My memory now can return 10 the time
When the breeze murmursd low primitive

While | wasted the day in dancing away,
Or playing with pebbles and s'ones-

on resting 4 while on the trees:
Then quickly descending it ruffipd my calm,
And whispered TO me Of The seasl

AGRICULTURAL.
FACTS FOR

1t will not do to hoe a great field for little
crops, nor to NOW twenty acres for five loads
of hay. Enrich the land and it will pay
you for it. Better farm twenty acres we'll
than fifty acres by halves.
In dry pastures dig for water on the brow
of a hill, springs are more frequent near the
surface on a height than in vale.
The foot of the owner is the best manure
for land.
1t is best to cut grain before it is fully or
dead ripe. When the straw Immediately
below the grain is so dry that on twisting it,
no juice is extracted, it should be cut. For
there is no circulation of juice to the ear
Every hour it stands uncut after this stage,
is attended with loss.
Obtain good seed, prepare your ground
we'll, sow early, and pay no attention to the
moon.
Accounts Should be kept detailing the
expense and product of each field.
When an implement is no longer wanted
for the season, lay it carefully aside, but first
let it be we'll cleaned.
Cultivate your heart Alright as well as your
farm, and remember whatsoever a man
! soweth that shall he also reap"
Do not begin farming by building an ex.
( ~tensive house nor a spacious barn till you
have something to store in it.
Keep notes Of all remarkable events or
: your farm. Recording even your errors
I will be Of benefit.
Good fences make good neighbors.
k Experiments are c~ommendable, but d,
not become an habitual experimenter.
Sheep put into fresh stublle are apt tob
o killed by eating too much grain.
J. One animal well fed is Of more value tina,
IS two poorly kept.
Ground once well ploughed is better tina
thrice poorly.
Cows well fed in winter, give more mil
in summer.
When you see a fence down, put it up
for if it remains until tomorrow, the cattl
l. may get over.
What ought to be done to-day, do it, ft
d tomorrow it may rain.

unnecessary insinuatons against the Wing men,
bers of the Legislature, remarks:
When Virginia shall be called on to respond TO the
appeals OF South Carolina and other States now before
her, the Legislature may firmly and briefly but respect.
fuliy declare, that while she is willing TO acouesce in
what has been done, she will sernly resist even TO a
dissolution OF the Union any further aggression This
IS the marked out by committees 10 the Lepisla

Wings, to take care of the Compromise.

PHILOSOPHY OF RANDRETHS VEGE-
TABLE PILLS-When the theory of the crcula-
ton OF the blood was established, the secret springs of
vitality We're then partially exposed to view. We
saw and understood that the food eat was con-
verted into blood which repaired the waste of The ami
NAL machine; the food fuel, which keeps at life
heat the internal hres that warm and invigorae the
inner man, The blood is an electric fluid which car
rles this heatto every ramtcaton oithe body even to
the exemities Of the hair and horny nail. While the
blood thus the seat OF life. is also the seat of dis
ease Food gives the body strength Brandreth's Pills
give blood the necessary power to throw out from itself
all impurities thus rendering the stream of lie pure and
healthy. II men were more sincere, there would
be lever religious creeds; and if they kept closer to
natures laws in the management of their bodies they
would require little medicine. AS men grow more in
elgent they will become wiser and happier even now
their lsdom is proved by the fact that when sickness
assas them, they use BrandreIhs Vegetable Universal
Pills, which soon restores them to health.
They are peculiarly adapted to this climate and re-
CURE no extra care when they are used either in diet
clothing They should be always in the house, that
upon the first indication Of sickness they may be used
One dose IN the beginning is potent for good than

and IN all acute heavy or pains their effects
