AT the commencement Oh Lne NEW 1Uh ie
academy held recently, Mr.. John G. SAKE, the wi
nd poet, delivered poem, from which the tolo"
,g extracts are published:
THE PRESS:
The art of arts that scorning humbIier birth,
Came at bound upon the wandering earth,
Full armed and strong her instant might to prove
new Minerva from the brain of Jove!
THE POWER PRESS.
Strange Is the sound when first the notes begin
Where human voices blend with Vnlcan's DIM
The click, the clank the clangor and the sound
OF rafting rollers in their rapid round;
The whzzing belt, the harsh metallic jar
The whispering birth Of myriad flying leaves,
Gathered anon jim countless motley sheaves-
Then scattered far, as the winged wind
The mortal nurture of the immortal mind!
AUTHORS vs. BOOK MAKERS.
Scarce round dozen, at the best, remain,
OF all that, once, among the author train
Wrote books like scholars. nor esteemed it hard;
Genius, like Virtue. was its own reward;
O! gentle Irving-thOu whose every grace
or wit and learning gave the highest place
In the proud synod of the old regime
In all thy dreaming ddst ever dream
To see thy trade a mere mechanic art,
The servie mnion OF the booksh mart9
When authorship should be the merest trade,
And men make books hats and boots made?
Didst ever dream that thou shouldst See the day
When the vexed Press should spawn the vast array
OF trashy tones that OH the public burst
So fast, they print the " tenth edition " first
Thou hast not read them, God forbid! it racks
Ones brain enough to see their brazen back;
Yet thou wilt smile, know, when thou are told
That with each book the buyer too is "sold
That soon the putting art shall all be vain,
And sense and reason rule the town again.
THEDAILY PAPERS.
Sweet 10 the traveller is the urchin's chimes
Proclaiming, "'Eres your Tribune 'Erah Times!"
Those lively records OF each passing day
That catch the echo, ere it dies away,
OF battle. bravery, sudden death and all
That mortal minds can starte appali
=
Letter describing festive rural scenes;
Ship news-{too often) news for the marines!"
Fortunes bright favors and misforfune's shock;
The fall Of Hungary and the fall Of stocks;
The important page th,t tells the thrilling tale
How Empires rise and Red Republics fall;
How Eng,and's lion, lettering in his lair,
Essays in vain to fright the Russian bear;
How France, bemoaning the expensive war;
Would give her Louis " to save her louis dor;
While the poor Turk, such hapless luck attends,
Cries "Gracious Allah save me from my friends"

STIR THE SOIL.-If there is any one point in
huSbandry more essential to success than any
other, it is stirring the soil ; not merely the sur
face, but stirring deeply, thoroughly and fire.
quently. Let us briefly enumerate some of the
advantages. Ii gives the roots of growing
plants a chance to penetrate in every direction
in search of nOurishment it pulverizes the soil,
and produces a thorough admiXture of the soil
to which it has been applied. 1t brings the
the finely pulverized soil in direct contact with
the newly sown seed, and thus produces speedy
and healthy termination. BY presenting con-
tinual new surface to the atmosphere, the Gu
riching elements in which the latter abounds
are more readily imbibed. And in seasons of
drought, frequent and thorough stirring has
been found to produce the happiest results, and
although there is no better established fact in
agriculture, there is no one of the truth Of
which it is so difficult to convince farmers. By
stirring the soil frequently, the young weeds
are destroyed before they have attained suifi-
cient size to become troublesome or hurtful to
the growing crop. Good reader, if you have
any doubts on this subject, put the matter to a
practical test this season. Take a small patch,
give it q few extra hoeingS, particularly in dry
weather, and let us have the result. The facts
we have presented are not new. Every far
mer is, or ought to be, familiar with them, but,
unfortunately, few put them in practice. STR

Breaking Colts to Bits and Harness

Much may be done with young horses in the
way of cultivating their good manners, and
forwarding their education-or breaking, as 1t
is usually termed-befOre the aid of the colt
breaker is required. Foals should be accus-
toned to familiaritics, fondling, and kind usage,
from their birth ; and if that kind treatment be
continued as they grow up, they will occasion
very little trouble when the time arrives for
them to be broken. Before that operation is
commenced, it is desirable that a bit should be
placed in the young animals mouth. Amy
plain snafle of sufficient substance answers the
purpose. There should not be any reins attach
ed to it it should be merely suspended by the
head-piece.
The Colt will thus learn to play with the
bit, which will tend very materially to the es-
tablishment of a good mouth, care being obser-
we'd that the bit is suspended evenly by the
proper length of the head-piece. This may be
adjusted by any quiet, good tempered person,
to whose care the young creature is entrusted,
and may be left on from one to two hours dali
ly. A loose box, hovel, or small yard, is the
most suitable place for the purpose.
1t is a very bad custom, though a very pre-
valent one, when a young horse is first bitted,
to make use of reins, which are drawn tightly.
A eolt-brcaker, when employed, should there
fore be cautioned against it, for it will cause
the pupil to contract a habit of leaning on the
bit, and probably create a one-sided mouth.
By such treatment, many colts will lake a pO-
sition in one corner of the box or hovel, and
there stand and sulk whereas if the bit be
used as | have recommended, they will champ
and play with it freely, thereby producing that
sensibility of mouth which is essential to future
perfection.
Breaking to harness may be considered
necessary with such horses as arc adapted for
carriages and their services after they are
three years old may be advantageously called
in requisition on the farm. Their first intro
ducti0n should never be to a noisy heavy cart.
The plan which | have adopted, with invaria-
BILE success, has been to put the harness on so
that the animal may become quite familiar to it
in the stable, after which | have a cord attach
ed to each trace. The horse is then led out by
an assistant, and another man, with the cords
in his hands, offers a slight resistance, as the
animal moves forward ; by this initiation the
alarm frequently occasiOncd by the pressure OF
the collar against the shoulders is avoided, as
the man who holds the cords can instantly re
lax them, if necessary. After two or three
lessons of this kind, neither trouble nor danger
need be apprehended in putting the animal tc
any employment calculated for the advance
ment of his education in the art of drawing

Plant Fruit Trees.

DEAN SWIFT once remarked, that any one
who should cause q blade of grass to grow
where nothing grew before, was a benefactor
to mankind. The object of the author OF this
remark was to state in forciblc terms his opm-
ion of the pullic benefit derived from all agrl-
tural improvements. This saying was fgura-
five but it might be literally averred Thai eve
rv man who plants a tree is a public benelac-
for whether the value of the tree consists III
its fruit, or it's flowers, its timber, or even ls
shade for. with regard to trees, it may be SAID
that we often seek the substance for the sake
of the shadow. W. are acquainted with a SIN
ole lady who makes the rational boast, tii~t
She has ALWAYS planted q fruit tree IN every
rloco she has resided. Whenever she takes
lodgings in any new house, if there be a garden
attached to it, she plants a fruit tree upon the
spot. Such acts, upon her part, seem to be
disinterested, as her habit of moving from
place to place, must prevent her from being the
continual proprietor of these trees. Some one
is benefited by them, and she enjoys the salts
faction of having done some good in the world.
In these acts, she displays true benevolence.
We know of a gentleman who lived to see
the folly of a different course of conduct. On
moving his young family into a house which
was connected to a large garden, he was ad.
vised to plant it with fruit trees. He rejected
the advice. and not owning the place, replied
that he should plant no trees for other peoples
benefit. He lived there about thirty years
and during this space of time he might have
raised an abundance of fruit for his own faml
ly, and seen many of the trees of his own plant
ing perish of old age. There is perhaps no spe
cies of selfshness so foolish as that which pre-
vents one from planting trees since their coSt
is but a trife, aud the labor of attending to {
few individuals is both wholesome and agrcea
BILE. And in this country, where property i
so constantly changing hands, we can neve
predict when we plant another mans grounds
that these grounds may not become our own o
those of our children.-Mdss. Nag. Of HOr
