EAsrMANvILIE, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY AUGUST 10, 1857.
NOTHING is LOST.

Nothing is lost; the drop of dew,
Which trembles on the leaf or flower,
Is but exhaled, to fall anew,
In summers thunder shower
Perchance to shine within the bow,
That fronts the sun at close of day:
Perchance to sparkle in the flow,
OF fountain far away.
Nothing is lost; the tiniest seed, ,.
BY wild birds borne, or breezes blown,
Finds something suited to its need,
Wherein It's sown and grown.
The language of some household song.
The perfume of some cherished flower,
Though gone from outward sense, belong,
To memorys after hour.
So with our words; or harsh or kind,
Unuttered, they are not forgot;
They leave their influence on the mind,
Pass on, but perish not.
So with our deeds, for good or ILL
They have their power scarce understood /;
Then let us use our better will,
To make them rife with good.

TnAr's A FAcr.-A venerable old mar

THAT'S FAcT.-A venerable old man
says:
Let the slandered take comfort--it is only
at fruit trees that thieves throw stones
The old man is right. Who ever saw
thieves throwing stones at the birch, maple,
or elm? The more fruit the tree bears, the
richer it is-the more it is likely to attract
the attention and labor of the thief.
No man who tries to do his duty to his
fellows, and endeavors to live so as to bear
the fruits of true religion in his daily conduct,
can for moment suppose that he will pass
along through life without being slandered
more or less. Such man will, of necessity,
have some enemies; and those enemies will
try in every way to injure him, and among
others they will not be slow in stirring up the
poluting and polluted waters Of defamation
and SANDER.
A man who has no enemies, is merely a
milk and water nothing. We would not give
a fig for such a man. He who is anything,
who makes his mark in the world, who does
good, will have enemies-and if he has them
he will be sure to be slandered.
Let him then be comforted in the reflection
of the venerable old man quoted above; it is
only at fruit trees that thieves throw stones.

MEASURING HAY.-The editor of the Neac
Jersey Farmer gives his rule, based on a
large experience, for measuring hay. He for
merly weighed his hay, but repeated trials
told him it was unnecessary. Take NOW
which has lain through the winter, and ascer-
tain its amount in cubic feet, multiplying its
width by its depth, and this product by its
length, and then divide by 700, and the quo
tient gives the number of tons. The upper
third takes 500 feet to the ton; the lower
600 feet, making an average of 700 feet
If the NOW is only five or six feet deep, how
ever, it takes an average Of 800 feet to the ton.

NOBILITY.
By CHARLES SWAIN.

What's fair and noble face,
If the mind ignoble be?
What though beauty, in each grace,
May her own resemblance see
Eyes may catch from heaven their spell,
Lips the ruby's light recall
In the home for love to dwell,
One good feelings worth them all.
Give me virtues rose to trace,
Honors kindling glance and mien:
Howsoever plain the face,
