the hrst work is TO harrow it with a large

Things I Have Seen.

/. have seen farmers, who neglected t
mend their fences in the spring, till afte
planting, and allowed their cattle and othel
stock to ramble about, till they had no con
troll over them, which nine times out Of ter
will make them unruly.
2. | have seen farmers pasture thei
swine in the highway, without yoke OF
ring in their nose, greatly annoying theil
neighbors, by turning up the turf before theil
dwellings,, ready to enter the door-yard OF
garden, whenever there is bar down, or &
gate open, or hole in the fence, forgetting
the golden rule, "what ever ye would thai
men should do to you, do We even SO unto
them" l'a. @-". *#tt2 3
8. have seen farmers let their best land
grow up to weeds and briars, and remain
from year to year encumbered with all man.
ner of trash, thus fulfilling the proverb, Il
went by theield of the sothful and the vine
yard OF the man void of understanding, and
10 it was all grown over with 'thorns,
and nettles had coverd the face thereof, and
anl the stone wall thereby was broke down"
d. l have seen farmers who had toler-
able theory Of farming in their heads, but
not the first principle in practice, and were
like the Scribcs and Pharisees, "for the y
say and do not" ;" .s' 7a- "oa "a ia
g. | have seen farmers who thought it
wicked to cultivate fine garden, shrub
berry. ornamental trees, flowers, or anything
to make their homes pleasant and inviting,
not discerning the hand Of the Creator in
all the works Of nature--but who consider
it no sin to suffer their children to grow up
in ideness, rowing about with no taste for
anything pertaining to home. s" s7.i p
O. | have seen farmers who let their tools
remain in the field in all weathers, and du-
ring the winter, saving great deal of time
in not car ying them to and from their store
house, tits true, but forgetting theold max
i'm ga penny saved is as good as two pence
earhed."t9 'itak ' E''i'oEst stsHi'1 s1a $50
7. l have seen farmers who knew enough
of farming without reading the Agricaliu-
riSt, and could not afford to take it, but
who were able to pay for novel, or some
trash paper Of the day. Hh'a' ~ eaat
8. have seen farmers who were very
officious in their ncighbors business, and
strange as IL may seem, neglected their
own. I" 5tat& sa4' .e+t$alb w 3H. n

THE HUSBANDS PETITION

Come hiiher. my hearts darling
Come, sit upon my knee,
And listen, while l whisper
A born | ask oflhee.
You need not pull my whiskers
60 amorously, my dove;
IT'S something quite apart from
The gentle cares of love.
l feel a bitter craving
A dark and deep desire,
That glows beneath my bosom,
Like Goals of kindled FIRE.
The passion of the nightingale,
When singing TO the rose,
Is leebler than the agony
That murders my repose!
Nay, dearest! do not doubt me.
Though madIy thus speak
l feel thy arm about me,
Thy tresses on my cheek,
know the sweet devotion -.
That links thy heart to mine
know my souls emotion
Is doubly felt by thine.
Thou wilt not sure deny me,
My first and fond request;
lpray thee by the memory
Ofall we cherish best
BY all the dear remembranccs
Ofthose delicious days,
When, handin hand, we wandered
Along the Summer braes.
BY all we felt, unspoten,
When meath the early moon.
We sat beside the rivulet,
In the leafy month of June,
And by the broken whisper
That fell upon my ear,
More sweet than angel-music,
When first wooed ttec, dear!
BY that great vow that bound thee
Forever to my side,
And BY the ring that made thee
My darling and my bride!
Thou wilt not fail or faltcr,
But bend to the task
A BOILED SLEEPS HEAD ON SUNDAY,
Is all the boom ask.

defines bis position on the compromise measures. and

In connection with the remarks OF Mr. Polk IL is proper
to notice msapprehenson which is circulated IN some
OF the wesiers papers, that Mr. White. OF Kentucky. de
clared Gen Scot, be in favor Of the Compromise By
reference TO the remarks OF MIR White il will be seen that
he had no authority from Gen Scott TO say anything
the subject The whole pupor Of what he said was the
expression OF his own belief. The honorable member
from Kentucky believed Gen Scott to be in favor Of main
tanning the Compromise He did not say that he knew
him TO be so.
