CONSERVATISM NECESSARY TO THE SOUTH.
The institutions of the South are all neces-
sarily conservative. Our security consists in
our stability, in our adherence 10 the old, to
what is true in the OLD, 10 ,D!.;It mas been tried
and proved Uy the experience OF our two hum
dred years OF life in America. We dare not
experiment upon this experience 10 poor,
adventurous people at the North, while nothing
to lose. experiment is always productive OF
some results. With us, heediul veneration of
what has been transmitted from our fathers is
the secret of our safety. Ourregion is increas-
ed by native growth, not by the influx of d
foreign population. These are necessarily ad-
venturous and experimental. They risk moth
ing when they call for change, and demand a
progress to the unknown and the indefinite
This is not the case with US. We risk every
thing by change. Our progress is necessarily
slou, but it is sure! We have few fluctuations.
If we make less show than our Northern neigh.
bors, our condition is more substantial. An ag-
ricrltural people should be, and is always the
most conservative.-Ere,N Neps.

engage the United States in the active supMX
of the doctrine of noaintewention. His Md
ton after having defeated its proper oppon&
was crushed by the foreign interference Al
Russia. In the event of a second war betwee ]
Hungary and Austria he wants no assistance
for Hungary, but simply stand up fight anA
no Russian interference. He wants the UI
States and England to join in guaranteeing
this.
We do not think that lie will succeed in his
mission, or that the policy of the country will
be changed for some considerable time, but it
rM be eAaageo.-A man might be the-asost
peaceable and unintermedling soul in the world,
but that would be no reason why he should
stand still and see two big fellows fall on one
little fellow and whip him to death, without
lifting finger to see fair play. Governments
are but aggregations of men and represent
human feelings on a large scale.-It is not in
human to possess the power which this coun.
try will possess in afew years, and not assist
in preventing nations struggling for principles
similar to those which guide ourselves from
being crushed by iniquitous combinations Of
despotism.
The speeches of Kossuth the discussion OF
of the question in Congress and through the
public press will set the people to rejecting
upon the subject, and great though noiseless
revolution will be effected in public opinion
and that expressed through the ballot box is
law. Like every other matter which is brought
forward, this will no doubt be dragged into the
political arena and although the struggle may
last for years and years, still the party of pro.
gress will eventually succeed because more
in consonance with the popular impulse, and
because the growing strength of the country
will take away from the arguments of their op-
ponents most of the strength they now derive
from considerations of policy and regard for
consequences = Wilmington Jou,adl.

of the rail fence. The ditching may seem
a formidable undertaking, but any field
laborers may soon learn to execute it with,
neatness and despatch, and once done, reg
mains permanent requiring little repairs
and if hedging afterwards be desirable, the
ditch will greatly aid in the speedy prosecu.
ton Of that purpose. On many farms re-.
quiring to be drained, the bitches may be so
arranged as to answer the double purpose
of drying the land, and forming the fence.
We have done some little work of this
sort-enough to test its practicability,
cheapness aud security, and therefore speak
advisedly in all that we say. Not far from
this city, a fence of this kind has been put
up by very neat planter, which is both a
protection and an ornament to the farm, and
will no doubt commend itself to the tayora-
BILE consideration of those who see it. We
have planted, all our days, under the pro.
lection of an old-fashioned rail fence, and
would not hastily desert tried friend, but
the circumstances of the country are rapid
ly changing, and it is now at cost of no
little timber that our fences are kept up, and
any change which shall lessen these drafts
upon our wasted forests, would be desirable.

WHAT GOOD HAS CHRISTIANITY DONE.


Let us look to the lowliest village church
in this happy land to the humblest pastor,
and the simplest flock. Let us remember,
as we see them pouring forth from its hum.
Bile portal, what words have been on all lips,
what thoughts in many hearts; what
thoughts of majesty and holiness, what love,
what reliance, what confidence rand then,
if we are not faithless to the dignity
of that soul which, though deteriorated,
still retains the stamp of its Maker, let us
believe, if we can, that no good has been
effected, no passion softened and checked,
no desire for the graces of Christian tenn
per implanted. Let this sight be compared,
not with the population that collected, like
our barbarious foretathers, or like the saw.
ages of modern days, to perform their
bloody worship in the sight of the bright
sun or shining stars of heaven, but with the
population that poured forth from the lofty
portals of some splendid temple of the
polished Athens, to join in the iniquities of a
Bacchanalan procession; or with that
which, at this very time, assemblies in the
distant realms of Hindostan, sometimes for
deeds of cruelty and death, sometimes for
services so revolving, that the very Brahmin
of better mind hides his face for shame, and
sheds the burning tear of anguish over the
infamy of that religion of which he is the
minister r;-let this comparison be simply
made, and then let it be asked, what has
Christianity done

JESUS oBEYED his MOTHER.

In the early life of the Saviour, there is
nothing that strikes me with more pleasure
than this trait; his cheerful and ready obe-
dience.
Did it ever occur to you, that while the
blessed Saviour was an infant on his mo-
ther's neck ! when he was a bright boy at
his:reputed fathers side, in the midst of his
daily: toll, he knew that he was the Son Of
God, and the destined heir to the throne of
the Universes He bore this knowledge
about with him in the days of his childhood
and youth, as an present reality. But
i, did not lead him to question the right of
his. mother to direct his steps, He knew
that at some future time, his mother would
worship him as her Lord. But he obeyed
her as, the humblest and most respectful of
children. He was good son. 1t gives
him JOY to-day, when he thinks of his love
and tenderness to her who bore him.
The Saviour is a perfect pattern for chill
dren, as well as their parents. We all ought
to be like Christ. We shall be more like
him, when we grow to be men and women,
five. are like him when we are young.
4 Ihaye said that the Saviour obeyed his
mohsr. There are many children in whom
asnod ora look. of their father will command
the promptest obedience; but they do not
obey. their mother. The wish to- reason
with her, when she directs They call in
question the wisdom or propriety of her di;
rections, and sometimes wish to take an ap-
peal to the father. But this is not as Christ
obeyed. He answered not when she spoke
He did not appeal TO Joseph.s He went
down, and was obedient TO both his mother
and father. .5:s5s f3sss E. = g.
Blessed youth What meekness and grace
must have been shone in his walk and ways.
What delight he must have impaired to pa.
ntalhearts, when he grewup by their side,
loving, trusting and trusted boy! And
what Ee promised to be, and more, he be-
eameswhen a man he came to do his hea-
renly Fathers will, and he learned obedi
ence when he was young .',.s
Tt seems to me there is lesson here,
which mo he's would do we'll to commend
to their children. Read them the story Of
Christ's childhood tits better than all the
thousands of stories that are made for the
young 1t has great lesson in it, and it
will: reach the heart of a thoughtful child.
He viii try to be like Christ, when no other
example would excite him.
To be Christians, we must be like little
children. To be Christians, children must
be like Christ.--Sunday S. Visitor.

a CHEAP AND GOOD FENCE.

AS the timber in many portions of our
country is becoming scarce, it becomes a
matter of much interest to know how we
may economize, and do the most fencing
with little timber. Hedging is the remedy
to which our minds most generally turn, and
perhaps the means which we shall have, at
some day, when our necessities are greater,
10 adopt. We propose plan requiring
much less timber than our old-fashioned
rail fence-equally secure, and easier kept
in repair. 1t is simply to cut ditch three
or three and half feet wide atop, sloped
to about two feet at the bottom, and three
feet deep. Before commencing let posts be
set slightly in the ground ina straight row,
on the side to which the dirt is TO be thrown,
and at such distance from the edge of the
ditch as will make the row to correspond
with the greatest elevation of the earth
which is thrown out. This excavated earth
should be thrown just far enough from the
ditch not to slide back or be easily washed
into it again by rain.' The posts thus de-
posted will be well planted by the earth
which will be thrown around them, without
farther trouble, only needing to be straight
ened up little to make the line true. The
top of this loose earth should be smoothed
to line or level, with hoe or rake, so that
the first plank shall rest uponi it. This done,
the planking may commence. The base
plank should be twelve inches wide and one
inch thick; above this a space Of four
inches, then a plank six inches wide, then a
space of, six inches, aud another six inch
plank. Saw off the tops of the posts, and
the fence is completed.
The posts should be planted at the dis
tance Of eight feet from each other, and the
plank be sixteen feet long, and the joints
should alternate, so that each succeeding
plank should join on a::dferent post from
that below. The posts for this fence may
be split like rails from any suitable timber,
and one side straightened, on which the
plank are to be nailed. If greater peatness
be desired, the posts may be sawed. They
should be about four or five inches square,
and will be required to be about five and a
half feet long, three feet of which should
stand above the level of the earth thrown
OF, the side of the ditch. This may seem to
be low, and insecure against bad stock, but
our observation .justiies us in saying, no
h" aDDrehended. With
.sssk - at one dollar per hundred, the cost OF
plalf.n'-a you'd be two cents ,afoot. If the
the ience III, lin their cost would be but a
posts ;tsm and the Rsjls almost nothing.
Is I..'a asad the additional cost may be easily
s.t;nated = mated and we apprebend i'',mostcases, ,
esther tn either event, will be found below the cost
