THE Two METHODS OF STUDY. There
are two methods of study; the one is the
studying an author, the other may be call
ed studying subject. In the former case
the student purposes to make himself mas
ter of the whole contents of book; he
diligently peruses it, and becomes familiar
with the style and language, and the sem
timents of the writer. BY the other nfeth-
cd, he follows up any particular branch of
knowledge through all the books in which
it may be found; searches in them for every
passage that is to his purpose, and col
flects everywhere the scattered particles OF
information. OF these two methods OF
seeking knowledge, the first is much to be
preferred. BY di.isently fixing the mind
upon one book at time, the intellectual
faculties in the three branches of appre-
hension, attention, and memory are exer-
cised, disciplined, improved. Whereas,
by the other practice, when a subject is
pursued by the help Of indexes through a
multitude Of authors, and writer's are con
suited only as books of reference, a super
| fetal, discursiye habit Of study grows up
on the mind, and the student will be sc
far from improving the three faculties
above mentioned, that he is in danger o
impairing them, and no man Of letters car
safely trust himself with this plan ofstudy
till he shall have first diligently wrough
into his mind firm habits Of accurate at.
tention, by long practice Of the other
i At6neum.

The sulphur Remedy for curculio

= 40 ktAA<AA ASS@AA0SAS AS<A >0A SSAAA0s
& FRIEND BRowS-I noticed in the Farm.
er, of the 2lst Of April, that a cores
pondent recommends the use of sulphur,
as preventive of the destructive effects
of curculio on plums. Herewith Il give
you my own experience in the use Of sui
phur .ss il ~ ~ q sif4,s
Some fifteen years ago, ], was out ex-
amining nay little fruit trees, when I OBJ
served a great many ants running up and
down a small apple tree, and thought at
the time that they. might be after no good.
] got little sulphur and mixed it with
lard, and made ring around the body Of
the, tree, and not an ant would cross it.
I concluded that the smell of sulphur must
be very offensive, and thought would try
and turn it to some account. had about
a dozen fine plum trees, of good varieties
and the fruit had been destroyed every
year by the curculio. I concluded ] would
try it on hem first. I melted birthstone,
and prepared matches, by taking old wool
len rags, about three inches square, and
dipped them into the melted birthstone,
keeping the pan containing 1t setting on a
warm stove. BY this means, prepared
matches enough to last me several weeks.
When the plums were about the size of a
common pea, / commenced smoking, by
using q pole long enough to reach to the
top of the trees, split the small end, stuck
my match in it, set fire to it. and held il
SO that the fumes of the sulphur would fly
all through the top Of the tree. This
T did from two to three evenings each week
for several weeks, or through the season
.of the cnrculio's work, and the result was
that had plums every year. published
an account of my success in the GAINESVILLE
Gazette. ..AN

He told me that he did not think it dit

to give it o further trial. The next spring

"SABBArH" AND 'SUNDAY.-A Correspond

words used in English for the first day of the
week, before the existence Of Purtanism,
were Sunday and the Lords day. The for
mer of those expressions was used by our Sax
on ancestors with all other Tcutonic nations.
The latter was adopted from the Christian
form of Southern Europe. Saturday, in ltal-

the unsettled state of the National religion
that sect arose among those rcformcrs of the

Sabbatarians.
John Knox, the great rcformcr ofScotland
was the true father of this new doctrine in
England, though Knox was the bosom friend
of Calvin. (vol. il, c. is, p. 353.)
Calvin was opposed, as were indeed Luz

day, TO Knox's views Of Sunday; Knox him
