The solid walls Of rock form almost
an arch. and rise neatly two hundred
feet above you. You are standing
under what is called the Look or
rock, it is enough to make the strong
est nerved man tremble, familiar
though he may be with the wonder
workings Of the Eternal The rocks
form dismal curve above, covered
with the green moss Of centuries. and
dripping with waters, apparently rea-
dy to tumble down with their weight:
the dismal and hollow sound of the
rushing waters, breaking down over
its rock-bound bed-the bowling Of
the wind around the lofty peaks Of the
the old cliffs. fills yon with wonder,
and you exclaim, 'there is God"
and these gigantic rocks are the play
things Of His hand-a type of true
power. whose going forth is as the
centre and high as the eternal stars.
With soul filed with awe and
wonder l gazed, and mused. in that
wild spot on that power which keeps
our universe ofspheres whirling silent
ly and with inconceiyable rapidity
through the great pulses of the mimi
tude.
Heaven hushed as with intense
thought with greater worlds than our
own, drifting through the noiseless
deep, is a nobler type of true power,
than all the thunders that have made
our low sky quiver with their groans,
Let man visit the wild and grand in
nature and he viii begin those thoughts
on which in silent growth, the strength
of the soul is gathered, and the wis.
dom which is strength. o n
Returning again to the "Look Of"
we took one last, long look at tha,
scene Of sublimity and wonder, and
though gay. laughing company. We
stood silently contemplating scene
which which whispered only Of the

TO STOP POrATOEs FROM ROT
TING.

An experienced agriculturalist informs
us that about six years ago he applied
slaked lime TO potatoes that were part
ly rotten, and it Immediately arrested
the decay. Potatoes that were partly
rotten when the lime was applied, re-
mained as they were, the progress Of
the rot being stopped, while the pota-
toes to which the lime had not been
applied continued to rot. aud were
lost. Since then he has made It con-
stant practice TO apply slaked lime to
his potatoes as he takes them up.--
He puts thin layer OF lime upon the
floor where the potatoes are to..bc laid,
and sprinkles some Of IL over the pota-
toes-about every ten inches---as they
are put down. He considers this as
perfectly protecting them from rotsing.
as he has never had a rotten potato
since he has practiced il; and he be-
lleves that potatoes thus used arc rem
dered some better by the action Of the
lime. ~ 80
We advise the farmers TO try this
plan as i can be easily done by them
all.
