speaks Of this sad word
How many emotions cluster round that
word. How full Of sadness, and 10 us, how full
Of sorrow il sounds. 1t is with US Ia consecrated
word. We heard II once within the year, as we
hope never 20 hear it again. We spoke it an
occasion, such as we hope never 10 speak il
again. 1t was in the chamber Of death, at the

ever spoke more, but - Goodbye" was the last
we heard of her sweet voice. We hear
that las, sorrowful word often and often, as we

We hear it in the silence of night, in the hours

NOBLE SEsrIMENrs-The following is the
remarks Of Gov. Briggs, of Massachusetts at a
cattle show in Nortbapton:
Recurring 10 the happy condition Of the farmer,
want, said the Governor, to see The day when
mans highest ambition will be TO be fariner:-
l want 10 see the lime when he shall return from
College, and spend his rt naming days farmer,
con;en, with that condition, and concious Of its
innate dignaty. Ia enumers,ing the advantages
Of farmers le be observed that he had more
leisure time than of any other profession or
cal ling. The doctor has half read page, and is !
summoned by the ring d, his bell to attend sick
DtUs-tDc 'HH e5 - resi- UJ Ills constant
effort To still the waves Of contc nion the iii, inc
has enough TO absorb his whole attention in the /
sacred duties of his calling; and the mechanic
has no rainy days and long winter evenings, which
cannot be profably employed in his workshop |
But the farmer who keeps his work before and |
who does no, suffer II TO lag behind, has many
leisure days. And the eisgre Of The iarmer's life
cannot be 10 highly appreciated, for affords him
an opportunity TO cultivate his mental and moral
part, aud unless we elevate ourselves az men our
improvement Of farming stock is Of valueess i'm
poriance.
want, continued the Governor, 10 see the re-
spons,bility Of labor appreciated. The mislor
tune OF this counry is. that there exists some no
think that labor is nenial or low, but the highest
point Of good sense is to consider labor as honor
able.
Ia conclusion, the Governor said, ! despiss the
idea Of considering enc class of men better than
another. unless il be that they have higher MOT
al character; adding az finale, in honor Of ihr
farmer, the well IL own lines of Goldsmith:
Princes and lords may flourish or may fale:
breath can make ,hen, a breath has made:
But a bold YOMANRY, their cauniry's pride,
When once destroyed can never be supplied
