EARLY RISING.
BY JOHN C. SAKE.

God bless the man who first invented sleep!"
So Sancho Panza said, and so say /:
And bless him, also, that he didn't keep
His great discovery to himself; or Try
To make it--as the lucky fellow might
a close monopoly by ~"pattent right"
Yes-bless the man who frs. invented sleep
Il really can't avoid the iteration
But blast the man with curses loud and deep,
Whate'er the rascal's name, or age. or station,
Who first invented, and went round advising,
That artificial cut-of-Early Rising!
"Iise with the lark, and with the lark 20 bed"
Observes some solemn sentimental owl.
Maxims like these are very cheaply said
But, ere you make yourself q fool or fowl,
Pray just inquire about the rise-and fall,
And whether larks have any beds at all!
The slime for honest folks to be abed,"
Is in the morning, if l reason right;
And he who cannot keep his precious head
Upon his pillow till it's fairly light,
And SO enjoy his forty morning,winks,
Is up to i nayery or else-he drinks
Thompson, who sung about the Seasons" said
1t was a glorious thing to rise in season.
But then lie said it-lying-in his bed
At 10 o'clock A. M.-the very reason
lie wrote so charmingly. The simple fact is,
His preaching wasn't sanctioned by his practice.
IT'S, doubtless, we'll to be sometimes awake
Awake to duty and awake to truth
But when, alas! a nice review we take
OF our best deeds and days, we find, in sooth,
The hours that leave the ~slightes. cause to weep
Are those we passed in childhood, or asleep!
'Tisb beautiful to leave the world awhile
For the soft visions of the gentle night;
And free, at last, from the mortal care or guile,
To live, as only 10 the angels sight,
In sleeps sweet realm so costly shut in,
Where, at the worst, we only dean of sin!
So, let us sleep, and give the Maker praise.
like the lad who, when his father thought
To clip his morning nap by Eackneyed phrase
OF vagrant worm by early songster caught,
Cried, "served him right Its not at all su,
prising;
The worm was punished, sir, for carly rising"

From tho New England Farmer, June %.
FARMING IN ENGLAND.

Nearly all the land in England is owned bv a
few large proprietors, mostly the nobility of the
country. These lands are iarmed, as it is called
here, that is, leased to persons who are called
farmers, usually at a fixed price per acre. Gen.
orally, they who cultivate the lands are not the
owners of it, as in our country though the leases
are usually for long terms. frequently twenty-one
years. OF this matter it may, perhaps, be con.
venient to write more particularly at some future
day. a friend Of mine, one Of a class who live
in good style, and do not labor very hard with
then own hands-men of good.practical education
though not usually scholars or students-rent
about one thousand acres of land, and paws for il
annually about twenty-five shillings. equal to five
dollars and a half per acre, besides taxes. What
would a New England farmer think of himself 70
undertake to pay five thousand five hundred dol.
lars a year in cash for the use of a thousand acres
Of land Yet many English farmers pay twice,
and some four times as much rent per acre, and
make money in the operation. | have long known
the fact, and to ascertain how it was done was a
main object with me in my visit to Europe. Nv
friend has this year two hundred and fifty acres in
wheat, two hundred acres in turnIps, and about
one hundred and ninety in barley. lie says he
ought 10 have one sheep to every acre of his farm,
but does not always come up to that number. !
will not undertake now to give more particulars of
his statement, because | have accepted n very
urgent invitation to spend some days with him Mt
his home during the summer, when | shall have
an opportunity to solve some Of the mysteries OF
paying these enormous rents. A single item will
indicate that there is some money circulating in
such hands.
lie says his wheat crops should yield about
thirty bushels per acre. This would give on the
hundred and fly acres, seven thousand five
hund red bushels, worth about s ,75 per bushel, or
Sl3, l25 in all.

CUNNING OF THE RAvEN.-In the narrative of
the Arctic Voyage of Capt. Mcclure, of the Brit
ish Navy, is the following story of two Ravens,
which became domiciliated on board the Inves-
tigator. The Raven, it appears, is the only bird
that willingly braves a Polar winter, and 10 the
depth Of the season, he is seen to fit through TIE
cold and sunless atmosphere like an evil spirit,
bis sullen croak alone breaking the silence of the
death-like scene. No one of the crew attempted
10 shoot the ravens, and they consequently became
very bold, as will be seen from the ollowine
story
1.-TWO ravens now established themselves MS
friends of the fsmily in Mercy Bag, living mainly
by what little scraps the men might have thrown
away after meal times. The ships dog, however,
loIhee upon these as his especial perquisitcs, and
exhibited considerable energy in maintaining his
rights against the ravens, who nevertheless out
! wlsted him in a way which amused every one.

THE ANTI-SLAVERY BUGLE.

Observing that he appeared quite willing to make
o mouthful OF their own sable persons, they used
to throw themselves Intentionally in his way, Just
as the mess tins were being cleaned out on the
dirt heap outside the ship. The dog would imme.
diately run at them. and they would just fly q few
yards; tho dog then made another run, aud again
they would appear to escape him but by an inch,
and so on, until they had tempted and provoked
him to the shore, n considerable distance of.
Then The ravens would make n direct fight for the
ship, and had generally done good execution he.
fore the mortified looking dog detected the impo.
sition that had beon practiced npon him, and rush
cd back again"

ODE FOR FOURTH JULY, 1857.
BY RALPH WALDO EMERSON.

0, tcnderly the naughty day
Fills his blue urn with fire,
One morn is in the mighty heaven,
And one in oGr desire.
Tho cannon booms from town to town,
Our pulses are not less;
The j~oy-bells chime their tidings down,
Which children's vocies bless.
For lie that flung the broad blue fold
O'ermantling land and sea,
One-third part of sky unrolled
For the banner of the free.
The men are ripe of Saxon kind
To build an equal state
To take the statute from the mind,
And make of duty fate,
United States the ages plcad,-
Present and Past, in undersong,-
Go, put your creed into your deed,
Nor speak with double tongue.
For sea and land don't understand,
Nor skies, without a frown,
See rights for which the one hand fights,
BY the other cloven down.
Be just at home: then reach beyond
Your charter Ger the sea,
And make the broad Atlantic pond
A ferry of the free.
And, henceforth, there shall be no chain,
Save, underneath the sea,
The wires shall murmur through the main
Sweet songs of LIBERTY.
The c%oncious stars accord above,
The waters wild below,
And under, through the cable wave.
Her fiery errands 60.
For lie that worketh high and wise,
Nor pauses in his plan,
Will take the sun out of the skies,
Ere freedom out of man.

NEW VARIETIES OF WHEAT.

The Improvement of agricultural
plants by cross-tecundation is sub
jcct of the highest Importance. 1t is
quite as feasible as the hybridizing, or
cross-breeding in animals. 1t often
involves, however, very extensive in
quiry, and when applied to the pro-
duction of new varieties of wheat, the
interests of the farmer, the miller, the
baker, and of the consumer are all to
be duly considered.
In addition to what was given on
this subject in the Agricultural Report
of the patent Office, in 1855, it may be
stated that, in performing the opera
ton, it is not only necessary to guard
against the fertilization of the ovary
from its own anthers, but that it is
requisite that all the other anthers of
the same ear, above the ovaries arti-
ficially fertilized, should be extracted;
otherwise, they will pour out the con.
tents of their pearly globules to the
relief of the feathery stigmas, and dis
appoint the eXperimenter's hopes.
For, more than ordinary care is taken
by nature that the grass tribe, which
includes wheat, shall be fertlized by
its own pollen. An opinion has long
prevailed that wet weather Injuries the
grain while it is in blossom. This
opinion is erroneous, inasmuch as, in
wet and very hot weather, fertilization
is carried on within the chaff "Of
ten in moist weather" says Mr.
Maund, the eXperimenter referred to,
in the Report as above, "have | felt
much interested, when, wanting pollen,
have held the straw and bottom of
the ear in my warm hand for two or
three minutes, watching for crop of
anthcrs. Quickly, the ripcst of them
stimulated by the warmth, would peep
out from their secIusion, and, gently
rising, give me chance of capturing
them ere they scattered their contents
over the eXpectants beneath them.
Sometimes, on leaving these excited
ears. and returning to them after ten
or fifteen minutes, | have found sew
eral anther-cascs as empty as balloons,
dancing to the breeze, as if joyous that
in my absence they had scattered ev
cry pearl they possessed" d. j. d.

ENDURANCE OF THE WORLDS SORROWS.
When a heart breaks under the
burden of it's sorrows-when sickness
strikes it's roots in wounds opened by
pain, and life consumes away slowly
to death, then none say that that
heavily laden heart should not have
broken that it might have exerted its
strength to bear its suferings. No,
we would express no word Of censure
on that prostrate spirit because it
could not raise itself--before its
resurrection from the grave
But beautiful, Strengthening and
glorious is the view of man who
presents courageous, patient breast
to the poisoned arrows of life; who
without defiance and without weak
ness goes upon his way untroubled !;
who suffers without complaint; whose
fairest hopes have been borne down
to the grave by fate, and who yet diff
fuses ioy around him, and lab0rs for
the happiness of others. Ah;: how
beautiful is the view of such a one,sto
whom the crown of thorns becomes
the glory of saint
have seen more than one such
royal sufferer, and have always felt al
the sight, go, could ! be like this one
it is better than to be worldly fortu
nate !"
