Hints TO Farmers.

The farmers life is Stunned by many
because il seems one of thoughtless
drudgery. Now this ought not 10 be so.
If our farmers would study and reflect
more, they might do less hard labor, and
yet accomplish more in the course of a
year. Ten hours day in summer and
eight in winter ought, with good manage
ment, to give any man good living, with
something To lay up for sicknessand rainy
weather. He who works SO hard tina,
he cannot read or reflect after the labors
of the day are over, because of fatigue.
does not plan wisely. No one should
shnn work when work is to be done, blu,
do it with despatch and neatness. The
farmers evenings should be devoted to
mental scquirement and rational enjoy
ment. The farmer should have about
him the choicest works of his own aux
iliary avocation; let those form the sub.
ject Of his study at least one evening in
the week. He should also have the his
tory of his country, and The lives of some
offs wisest statesmen, while the News
paper should have its allotted season.
Two or three dollars contributed by eaci
family in the neighborhood, would GO a
great way in the purchase of STANDARD
books at moderate prices. By the way
! think good and well conducted news
paper year among family of children,
is worth as much as one quarters school
ing. Our object should rather be to make
home pleasant and happy than to lay up
riches.

OUR CHILDREN.
BY WILLIAM d. GALLAGHER.

'7he beautiful vanish and return not.
They are stricken, darby stricken;
Faint and fainter grows each breath,
And the shadows round them thicken,
Of the darkness that is Death. ..
We are with them-bending DER them
And the Soul in sorrow saith, s.....
"Would that had pass'd before them,
To the darkness that is Deathr'
They are sleeping, coldly sleeping,
In the graveyard, still and lone,
Where the winds, above them sweeping,
Make melancholy moan,
Tricky round us--darkly DER US
Is the pail of sorrow ihrown;
And our heart.beats make the chorus
OF that melancholy moan. d -araa
They are waking, brightly waking,
From the slumbers of the tomb,
And, enrolled in light, forsaking
It's impene'rable gloom. 9ss
They are rising-,hey have risen
And their spirit-forms illume,
In the darkness of Deaths prison,
The impenetrsble gloom.
They are passing. upward passing,
Dearest beings of our love, -.a
And their spirit-forms are chasing
In the beautiful above; aa2
There we see them-there we hear them.
Through our dreams they ever move,
And we long to be anear them ~r f.
In the beautiful above. .a aE
They are going, gently going,
Ia their angel-robes to stand, ay
Where the River of Life is flowing
In the far-off distant land.
We shall mourn ,hem-we shall miss
them ...
From our broken little band;
But our souls shall still caress them,
In the far-of Silent Land. rsa
They are singing-sweetly singing,
Far beyond the vale Of Night
Where the angel-harps are ringing.
And the Day is ever bright.
We can love them, we can greet them,
From this land of DINNER light,
Till God takes US hence to meet them
Where the day is ever bright.

have not complied with the Post Office
Law, which is as follows:

VANCE; and without such payment they
will not deliver them any papers, even
though they tender the postage on them
singly.
The P. 0. quarters commence on the first
day of January, April, July, and October,
