A Beautiful Picture.

The man who stands upon his own
soil, who feels that by the laws of the
land in which he lives-by the laws Of
civilized nations-hc is the rightful and
exclusive owner of the land which he
tills, is, by the constitution of our nature,
under wholesome influence not easily
imbbed from any other source. He feels,
other things being equal, more strongly
than another, the character of man as
the lord Of an inanimate world. or
this great and wonderful sphere which,
fashioned by the hand of God, and up.
held by his power, is rolling through the
heavens, part is his.-his from the Gen.
tie to the sky. 1t is the space on which
the generation before him moved in its
round of duties, and he feels himself con.
nected by visible link with those who
follow him, and to whom he is to trans
NIT home. Perhaps his farm has come
down to him from his fathers. They have
gone to their last home but he can trace
their footsteps over the scenes of his
daily labors. The roof which shelters
him was reared by those to whom he
owes his being. Some interesting do
mestic tradition is connected with every
inclosure. The lavorite fruit tree was
planted by his fathers hand. He sported
in boyhood beside the brook which still
winds through the meadow. Through
the field lies the path to the village school
of earlier days. lie still hears from his
window the voice of the Sabbath bell,
which called his fathers TO the house of
God; and near at hand is the spot where
his parents laid down to rest, and where,
when his time has come, he shall be laid
by his children. These are the feelings
of the owners of the soil. Words can
not paint thcm-gold cannot buy them !:
they flow out of the deepest fountains of
the heart; they are the lifesprings Of a
fresh, healthy and generous national char
acter.

Six Reasons for Planting an
Orchard.

l. Would you leave and inheritance
TO your children! Plant an orchard.
No other investment of money and Ia.
Dor wilt IN the long run pay so well.
2. Would you make your home pleas.
ant-the abode of the social virtues
Plant an orchard. Nothing better pro-
motes among neighbors feeling of kind
ness and good will than treat Of good
fruit, often repeated.
8. Would you remove from your chill
dren the strongest temptations to steal ?
Plant an orchard. If children cannot
obtain fruit at home, they are very apt
to steal it; and when they have learned
to steal fruit, they are in fair way to
learn to steal horses.
4. Would you cultivate a constant feel.
ing of thankfulness towards the great
Giver of all good! Plant an orchard
BY having constantly before you one OF
the greatest blessings given to man, you
must be hardened indeed if you are not in.
Huenced by a spirit of humanity and
thankfuluess.
6. Would you have children love their
home, respect their parents while living,
and venerate their memory when dead
in all their wanderings look back upon
the home of their youth as sacred spot
AN oasis in the great wilderness of the
world? Then plant an orchard.
i 6. In short, if you wish to avail your.
self the blessings of a bountiful Providence
which are within your reach, you must
plant an orchard. And, when you do il
see that you plant good fruit. DOM
plant crab-apple trees, nor wild plums
nor Indian peaches. The best are the
cheapest.
a correspondent, in writing TO us on
this subject, says that there is deficiency
of apricots, plums, and pears in the mar
kets of Washington, and that hundred
varieties of the plum and hundred varie-
tics of the pear, ripening in June, and in
succession until pears ripen again, may be

Long Manure.

Vegetable and animal matters, when
brought into state Of fermentation by
the agency of air, heat, and moisture, i'm
mediately give off carbonic acid gas,
which, if confined beneath the surface of
the soil, will become mixed with the mois-
ture there, and be taken up by the roots
of plants. And what is carboaic acid
gas? 1t is composed of two parts Of
oxygen, constituent of atmospheric air,
and one part of carbon, the principal con-
constituent Of plants, rendered volatile by
the heat of fermentation. 1t is the digcstcd
food of plants; it becomes incorporated
with water in the soil; is taken up by the
spongioles or roots of plants; transmitted
through the sap vessels to the leaves: is
there decomposed by the suns rays the
oxygen passes into the atmosphere; the
carbon passes down through another set
ofvessels, and being gradually disengaged
from the water which conveys it, by
evaporation, it becomes solid substance
of the plant. Carbon constitutes priuci-
pally the structure of the stems, branches,
and roots of plants, and it can only find
access into plants in a fluid state, COM
bined with oxygen. From this view Of
the matter, the reader will understand
why we recommend long manure for
hoed autumnal ripening crops, and why
we insist that one half of the value of cat.
tie dung is lost by suffering it to be re-.
duced to the condition of short muck be-
fore it is buried in the soil. Allvegeta:
bic matters contain more or less carbon !;
and earbonic acid gas is invariablypro
duced IN the fermenting aud purifying
processes,
