The FARM.--On this branch Of educa-
ton, as it is to be taught at the new Col
lege, atIFarfax, the 81. Adams Democrat
makes the following sensible and appropriate
remarks
"In connection with the Literary in
stliution, it is intended to have full
Agricultural Professorship, with an en-
dowment OF $4,000. If this intention
is carried out, and it will be, the new
College will be the only one in Vermont
which will have an agricultural Profess
sorship. In all those branches Of natu-
raj science relating to agriculture, tho
most thorough instruction will be given,
the necessary apparatus will be furnish
ed, and men of real science, and perfect
" conversant with the whole subject,
will deliver lectures. In this coniemp-
lated Professorship every farmer IN
franklin county and vicinity should feel
a deep and lively interest. The educa-
ted farmer is as much better qualified to
perform the labors and duties OF agricul-
iure than the ignorant one, as the edu,
cated lawyer, physician or clergyman IL
superior To the ignoramus or quack.--
Agriculture is one of the noblest of hui
man employments, and has received IL
very impressive manner the Divine
sanction. When God called into exist
ence tho first man, he did not make u
merchant of him, nor a lawyer, nor |
physician, but he "Put him into The gaI
den of Eden (Which was IN reality a BIZ
farm) To keep il and to dress it," thus
pronouncing upon agriculture sacre'.
benediction, making II high and noble
calling, and GROWING II with the cholc-
est blessings; and that Adam was qua.

cred history.
We are astonished that any man IA

entifc farming. Whoever does SO, To-
he minister, lawyer, or doctor, shows has
want of knowledge and common sense,
and should Immediately emlgrale to suu,c
