Man a Student.

say every man is to be a student,
a thinker. This does not mean he is to
shut himself within four walls, and bend
body and mind over books. Men thought
before books were written, and some
Of the greatest thinkers never entered
what we call a study. Nature, Scrip
ture, society, present perpetual sub
jects for thought; and the man who col
lects, concentrates, employs his facul-
ties on any Of these for the purpose Of
getting the truth, is so far a student,
thinker, a philosopher, and is rising
to the dignity of man. 1t is time
that we should cease to limit to profess
sed scholars the titles of thinkers, phi
losophers. Whoever seeks the truth
with an earnest mind, no matter when
or how, belongs to the school of intel
lectual men.
In loose sense Of the word, men
may be said to think; that is, success
sion of ideas, notions, pass through
their minds from morning to night; but
in as far as this succession is passive,
undirected, or governed only by acci-
dent and outward impulse, it has little
more claim to dignity than the expert
ence Of the brute, who receives with
like passiveness, sensations from abroad
through his waking hours. Such
thought. if thought It may be called,
having no aim, is as useless as the yis-
ion Of an eye which rests ON nothing,
which flies without pause over earth
and sky, and Of consequence receives no
distinct image. Thought, in its true
sense, is an energy Of intellect. In
thought, the mind not only receives i'm
pressions or suggestions from within,
but reacts upon them, collects its at
tention, concentrates its forces upon
them, breaks them up and analyzes
like living laboratory, and then COM
bines them anew, traces their connex-
ions, and thus impresses itself on all
the objects which engage it.
The universe in which we live was
plainly meant by God to stir up such
thought as has now been described.

dates:
In connection with this subject, we
will give. M anersloie related 10 us last
winter BY Gov. Aiken. II Snuih Carolina,
Of The rice birds. These little creatures
galher around The fields Al harvest time in
countless myriads. and &c course consume
considerable grain. Some years ago il
was determined To make war upon them,
anil drive them out Of The country, and ihe
measure was in some degree successful, so
far a getting rid ol The birds. What
are birds good forr The rice planter
snon found oui for with the decrease OF
birds. the worms increased so rapidly that.
instead Of a few scattering grains 10 feed
the birds, the whole crop was demanded
10 fill the Unsuitable nav Of the army that
rame to consume every young shoot as
fast as they sprung from the ground. Most
undoubtedly The birds were invited back
again with hearty welcome. Rice can
moi be cultivated without their assis-
iance.
"a few years ago the blackhirds in the
northern part of Indiana were considered
agrievnus nuisance TO the farmer. Whole
fields Of oats were sometimes destroyed.
and The depredaiions upon late corn were
giealer Than can be believed, ifrold. The
farmers sowed and the BIRDS reaped. lie
scolied and they twiltered. Occasionally
acllaIge OF shot brought down score, but
made no more impression upon the great
sea Of birds than The removal Of single
bnckelof wafer from the great salt puddle.
A few years later every green thing on the
land seemed destined 10 destruction by
the army worm. Man was powerless--
worm among worms. But his best
friend, the hated blackbirds, came to his
relief just in time to save when all SEEM
ed LOST. No human aid could have help
ed him. How thankful should man be
that God has given him for his compan-
ions and fellow-laborers, in the cultivation
Of The earth, these lovely birds. The Ia.
borer is worthy ofhis hire Why should
we grudge the little moicty claimed by the
busy little fellows which follow the plow,
and snaiched The worm away from the
seed, that it might produce grain for his
and our sustenance =. No honest man
would cheat bird Of his spring and sum-
mer's work.

Agricultural Capabilities Of California.

A Californian correspondent Of the Jour.
nal Of Commerce represents that country
as an inviting field for farming operations.
His sentiments are expressed in The de-
cided tone:-
A general impression has gone abroad,
that from The fact that there is no rain for
6 to S.mopths, nothing could be raised
here without irrigation; but the few expe-
perimenis which have been made have a.
bundanlly proven that not only the finest
vegetables ip The world, butrye, oats, bar
ley and wheat. can be raised here, to
greater perfection, and in larger quantities
10 the same amount of labor. than in any
other part of The world; and that, too,
from The fact, there is no rain in summer,
either TO hurry the farmer or spoil his
crops when made. We SOW small grain
from the commencement of the rainy
season, say November. until the first Of
March, and gather il from July ill Ocio-

Kind Of cultivation. This, too, is equally a
mistake. have beennearly six wears in

Indiana.-The Legislature of the State
Of Indiana commenced its session on the
30ih ullimo. and The Message Of Governor
Wright was laid before the Two houses on
the following day. The Governor expires.
ses himself in terms decidedly strong in
favor of colonization. Speaking of the
Fugitive Slave Law, he says:
Whatever difference of opinion may
exist as TO the late compromise measures
enacted by Congress-howeve ultra men
in the North and South may oppose or
denounce them-ihere is but one course
Of action for the true palrioi 10 pnrsue--
that is, unhesitsilngly and in good faith TO
carry out these enactments. There is no
safety for property or life except in the
absolute supremacy of the law no higher
duty Of the citizen than to maintain, by
word and deed, that supremacy, as we val

chased, no, with silver or gold, but with
the life's blood of the good and brave the

in mind that the first tpublic act of lisobe,li-
