EXCESSIVE Rowland
Hill. a celebrated English preacher, was
always annoyed when there happened
to be any noise in the chapel, or when
anything occurred to divert the attention
of his hearers from what he was saying.
On one occasion, a few days before bis
death, he was preaching to one of the
most crowded congregations that ever
assembled to hear him. In the middle
of his discourse he observed a commo-
ton in the gallery. For some time he
took no notice of it, but finding it in
creasing, he paused in his sermon, and
looking in the direction in which the con-
fusion prevailed, he exclaimed:
whats the matter there? The
devil seems to have got among you"
A plain country-looking man imme-
diately started to his feet, and address
sing Mr.. Hill in reply, said:
"No, sir, it amt the devil as is doing
it is fat lady wot's tainted; and she
isl very fat 'un, sir, and don't seem
likely to come too again in burry.'
ssOhl that's it?" said Mr.. Hill.
drawing his hand across his chin, "then
1 beg the lady's pardon, and the DEVILS
too."

Z MARROW EsoAPE.--0ld Mr.. Puddle
fell down ina puddle. just as runa-
way horse and Shay came slashing and
splashing, and tearing that way. In
helpless plight, he roared with fright;
the horse came quick--all gallop and
kick; when the old man raised his great
oak stick. The horse then SHE'D a little
aside. for sticks were no friends to his
well fed hide. Within foot of Fuddle's
toes, within an inch of his ruby nose,
the wheel came whizzing and on it goes.
Up rises Puddle from out of the puddle,
and stands on the road with stagger-
ing pride; then wheeling away from the
scene of the fray, fourished his stick
with hero,s pride. MI 3 -

MACHINERY IN FARMINeAITs NEoEs-
sTTY.-It is not enough that farmers
avail themselves of all the advantages
which chemistry affords in its applica-
ton to their art; it is not enough that
they learn how to save as much as pos
sible Of the manures made on their pre-
misses, and the best methods of apply
ing these apd also purchased and speci-
fc manures; it is not enough that they
know st what seasons and to what
depth their soils should be cultivated.
They must perform as many of the op-
erations as machinery can be made to
perform to advantage.
There is no other way in which agri-
culture can keep pace in responsibility,
pleasure, and profit with other arts
Without this expedient, it win be out
stripped by them, and sink steadily in
comparative rank. -- 20. 80
BY machinery, as we use the word
here, we mean all machinical contrivan-
ces which can be substituted for manual
labor, and combined with manual labor
50 as greatly to increase its productive
ness.
And the policy which we recommend
includes also animal labor, and as a
more powerful cooperation with it.
So far as a horse or an OK can be
made to do the work of FIVE men, the
horse or the OK earns the net product of
FIVE mems labor for the employer. If
one man cultivates as much corn, and
cultivates it well, with one horse, attach
ed to a cultivator, as his neighbor cult
Yates with ten hoes, in the hands of ten
men, it is easy to see which of the two
is travelling the fastest on the road to
wealth.
So in cutting grass. in planting and
harvesting grain, in shelling corn, and
in various other operations of the farm,
machines can do the work for a small
per centage of the cost of manual labor.
