to the connection between enlightened agriculture and
the development Of the social and moral nature of

atons and Observation-Disclosures agriculture and
The recognition of that Providence upon whose care
the farmer, than any other man, should, from

AEECDoTE OF GOVERNOR WIsE.-Before his cleo
the Know NOtbiDo OanerS were fond of nuh-
fishing anecdotes TO show how Wise was ''put down"
upon the stump by Interruptions from SAM" in the
vas! assembages which were wont to gather around
the busting of the orator of AccOmac. At one of
these meetings in Western Virginia, two of Sam
uels' fastest young men had been more than usually
noisy and nsolent towards the speaker their inter
mpiOns plainly intended to annoy and insult
him. Wise paused in his speech, and turning to
lhese "boods," pointed his long, skinny finger, Ia
Randolph, at the offenders, and said, Young men,
am to be your next Governor; you will probably
be IN the penitentary, and you may depend upon it.,
you will have TO Serre ont y0ur time !" He wasn't
interrupted again in that quarter.
