A MERCHANT TURNED FARMER.-A successful mer
chant after ten years business retired to a farm to
the astonishment of his friends, who knew, at the
moment of his breaking away from his mercantile
profession, that he in the midst of prosperity.
On requesting his reasons for singular move he
replied that the cares, anxeties and risks of mer-
camille business Obstructive of comfort security
tranquility. and also of health that the cultivation
of the fruit and field crops is much more favorable
to health and comfort both of body and of mind !;
that business pursuits tend concentrate the whole
energies of the mind in direction, thus produ.
cling mental and moral deformity and disease; and
that the impossibi!ity of bringing up children in
city, without running all the risks of the contamina-
ting and corrupt influences Of silly fashionable and
vicious company and customs is sufficient TO coun-
terbaance all the educational advantages which
some claim for the city over the country; and, in
letter of his old city friends, writes as follows
-" You to think that the society of farmers
and rural residents must be exceedingly dull and

which do not admit, they are certainly morally su-
perior Take hundred individuals, without any

again, can be more with my family than when
