The World Harvest.

Editor American The following beautiful and
expressive lines appear originally in the AL
bany Journal. The first and last two stanzas
were quoted by the Rev. MIR. Storrs at the
close of his late lecture in this city, on the Le-
sacies of the Past. Yours truly, G. L. L.
Nep Haven, Feb, 1852.

They are sowing their seed in the noon days

They are sowing their seed in the soft twilight
The are sowing their seed in the solemn night

They are sowing their seed of pleasant thought;

They are sowing the seed of word and deed,
Which the cold know not nor the careless heed;
Of the gentle word and the kindest deed,
That have blessed the heart in its sorest need.
Sweet shall the harvest be.
And some are sowing the seed of pain
OfJate rcmorse and a maddencd brain;
And the stars shall fail, and the sun shall wane,
Ere they root the weeds from their soil again.
Dark will the harvest be.
And some are standing with idle hand,
Yet they scatter seed on their native land;
And some are sowing the seed of care,
Which their soil hath boro and still must bear.
Sad will the harvest be.
They are sowing their seed of noble deed,
With a sleepless watch and earnest heed;
With a ceaseess hand o er the earth they SOW,
And the fields are whitening where'er they CO.
Rich will the harvest be.
Sown in darkness, or sown in light.
Sown in weakness, or sown in might,
Sown in meekness, or sown in wrath,
In the broad work-fied or the shadowy path
... Sure will the harvest be.

True Philosophy.

I saw pale mourner standing bending,
over the tomb, and his tears fell fast and
often. As he raised his humid eyes to
heaven. he cried !:
MY brother OBJ, my brother
A sage passed that way, and said
sFor whom dost thou mourn 2
sOne," replied he, whom | did not
sufficiently love while living; but whose
inestimable worth | now FEEL
What wouldst thou do if he were re>
stored to thee 2
The mourner replied that he would
never offend HIM by any unkind word,
but he would take every occasion to show
his friendship, if he could but come back
TO his fond embrace.
Then waste no time in useless grief,
said the sage, 'but if thou hast friends, go
and cherish the living, remembering that
they will die one day or other also

To MAKE PRESERVES KEEp.-The SCI
cret ofpreserving them from change is to
exclude the air. The easier way to do
this is to brush over sheet of paper with
the white of an egg, and cover the jar,
pressing it down around the edges while
moist, and it will cement perfectly sight.
1t is cheaper, heater and better than seal
ing up the mouth of the jar with wax or
covering it with bladder.

A poor woman in the country went to
hear sermon, wherein among other
practices, the iniquity of using dishonest
weights and measures was exposed
With this discourse she was much affec-
ted. The next day, when the minister,
according to his custom, when among
his hearers, and called upon the women,
he took occasion to ask her what she re-
membered of his sermon. The poor wo>
man complained much of her bad memory,
and said she had forgotten almost every
word, but one thing said she i remem-
bered; remembered to burn my bushel.

of course be in fury against him. The Or

vile and Aumale, are already threatening him
from Belgium. The Republicans of course
must hate him-the murderer of the Constitu

he has no glory to offer to them-there is no
glory to be earned on the side of the despots Of
the European Continent. Even the Uncle-am-

not because he fought for the tyrannical despots,

agriculture 1t is time that this reproach to our
legislation should be removed; and sincerely
hope that the present Congress will not close
supply the omissions Of those who have preced-
ed them"
But the undersigned do not ask for additional
Legislation for their benefit, but we do ask that
the existing laws of the country, shall not be
modified TO our injury.
RESOLVED That without distinction of party
we protest against the proposed scheme of RE
ciprocal Free Trade " with the British Provln-
ces; believing that it is 4 scheme lraught only
with injury TO us, that it is bartering away the
vital interests of the Northern Farmer tor the
benefit of few eastern Manufacturers and i'm
porters, and the Railroad interest of New Eng.
land That 1t is y practical violation of the
spirit OF the constituton.-paral Of itself-of-
terlng the sacrifice of one interest to promote
others. That it proposes in terms to admit free
OF duty, all the agriculture production and lum-
Der OF the British Provinces, if they will admit
the Manufactures of the United States upon the
same terms. That there is no Reciprocity for
the Farmer; for none of his productions find
market IN Canada. It's not free trade, for the
Farmer still has to paya duty on all the manu-
features he buys.
That it admits the Canadian to all the benefit
of our markets without his contributing ANYTHING
for the support of our Government that such
articles of Commerce and manufactures as the
, Canadas now take of the United States, are
such articles as they ,OiU not do Cithom and can
be purchased better here than elsewhere
That the offer of the free navigation of the
st Lawrence, is worthless to us, and of but lit
tie value to them; and finally it is an abuse of
f terms and yuage, for it is neither free trade
nor reciprocity, but it is the old familiar offer of
t the Englishman to the Indian, of an equal dvis.
ion of the Blizzard and Turkey,
RESOLVED That in view of the danger of the
: passage of the so called "Reciprocity Bill, =
Il we call upon all who are interested in the pros.
perity Of the Agricultural class without distnc
i ton of purity, to unite in nenoraIzing Congress
Q against the passage Of such measure, and
e we recommend holding public meetings for the
4 purpose OF nstrncting our Representatives anC
we hereby invite our fellow citizens of Frank
lin County 10 meet at St. Adams on the 9Th da,
II OF January, to take such action in the premises
q as is thought best.

meeting, be signed by the President and Secre
e taries, and copy thereof forwarded to eacI
# member of the Vermont delegation in Congress
and the same with the memorial to Congres
