MATRIMONY.

In the selection of husband, young
lady should look for truth, pron2ety, and
decorum, rather than for station ealth, or
good looks Courtship allows her all the
opportunities necessary for this study Of a
mans character; SO, however delightful that
probationary period may be to the magma
ton and the susceptibilities, it is filed with
serious responsibility. There is an interest
attaching to it, that should impart thought
'fulness, benignity, and refinement to the
whole being of the man and woman. AS
the threshold of new life, it should be guar
ded against all sinister infuences,-all in
sidious tendencies, all weakness, and all IL
ability to fall into temptation. Courtship
cannot be too pure, or its course too strict
ly watched. It is the sweet communion and
interblending of two souls, previous to their
sacred marriage and unity in this life and
the life beyond. It's very trivialities ought
to be fenced round with respect; and no in
deeorous iesting, no SANDERS, no weak levi
Ity, no dark suspicious, no want of faith
should be allowed to cast their grim shadows
on its path-all should be bright, hopeful
and pure as the flush on the virgil check
after the rosy lips have received the first
kiss Of kind and respectful love. Marriage,
too. should be embIematic of the union of
mind to mind, and heart to heart It is
we'll to build matrimonial heppiness on ply
steal sympathy-be still, of heart ex-
tending to heart; but the mental adaptation,
and similarity Of views, relative to the
great principles of action, and Of the rela-
tons to society, should also be taken into
consideration for the bodily attractions
must fade, and the ardor of affection may
cool, or be diverted into another channel,
! therefore, the minds purposes must be ele-
waited and stable, and its energies will be
found to diminish but slowly with increasing
years. A marriage founded upon this mu-
tual understanding has little chance Of be-
ing wretchcd; both parties ever finding the
self-same mental beauty they once admired,
and constantly deriving from each other the
benefit of mutual interchange Of thought,
sympathy, and endeavors.

BATHING IN LAPLAND.
The New York Tribune of, "Wednesday

The New York Tribune of, Wednesday,
4crtors,
dated Mouiovara, Lapland. January IA,
1857. The following description of rather
original style of bath in which he indulged,
will be read with no less interest than sur
prise:
"Mr. Wolley proposed to us another luxu-
ry, in the shape Of a vapor bath, as Herr
Forstrom had one Of those bathing houses
which are universal in Finland. It was a
little wooden building without windows
4 Finnish servant girl, who had been for
some time in getting it in readiness, opened
the door for us. The interior was very hot
and moist, like an oriental bathing hail.
In the centre was pile Of hot stones cover
ed with birch boughs. the leaves of which
dffused pleasant odor, and large tub of
water The floor was strewn with straw,
and under the roof was a platform extend
ing across one end of the building. This
was covered with soft hay, and reached by
means of ladder for the purpose Of getting
the full effect ef the stream. Some stools
and bench for our clothes completed the
arrangements There were also in one cor
ner pitcher Of water, standing in heap
of snow to keep it cool.
The servant girl came in after us, and
Mr.. w. quietly proceeded to undress, in
forming US that the girl was bathing master
and would do the usual scrubbing and cham
pooning. This, it seems, is the general
practice in Finland, and is but another ex-
ample Of the unembarrassed habits of the
people Of this part of the world. The poor
Ier families go to their bathing rooms togeth-
er- father mother and children-and take
turns in polishing each others backs. It
would have been ridiculous to have shown
any hesitation under the circumstances, in
fact, an indignity to the honest, simple
hearted, virtuous girl, and SO we deliberate
ly undressed also When at last, we stood,
like our first parents in Paradise, naked and
not ashamed, she handed us birch twigs
with the leaves On, the use Of which was
suggested bysthe leaf of scripture.
We mounted to the platform and lay down
upon our backs, whereupon she increased
the temperature by throwing water upon the
hot stones, until the heat was rather op-
pressive and we began to sweat profusely.
She then took bunch of birch twigs which
had been dipped in hot water, and switched
us smartly from head to foot. When we
had become thoroughly parboiled, we de-
scended to the floor, seated ourselves upon
the stools and were scrubbed with soap as
thoroughly as an admirable bather, the re-
suit of long practice in the business. She
finished by pouring hot water over us and
then drying us with warm towels. The
Firms frequently go out and roll in the snow
during the progress Of the bath. Iventur-
ed so far as to go out and stand few Sc
conds in the openair. The mercury was at
zero, and the effect Of the cold On my heat
ed skin was delightfully."- refreshing
Man has much to learn.

4 SEVEN FIELD ROTATION.

lMr. A. Y. Moore, an ex-President Of the
Michigan State Agricultural Society, and
said to be an excellent practical farmer, fur
nishes to the Ohio Farmer the Rotation he
has adopted and practiced for wheat farm;
land, climate and location being best adapt
ed to that crop. =. -
His farm contains 100 acres, 20 of which
is devoted to garden, lawn and lots for root
crops, pasturage, sc. The remainderis d.
vided into fields of 20 acres each, which are
farmed on the following plan. First year,
corn, second oats, third wheat, fourth clo-
yer, fifth wheat, sixth wheat and seventh
clover. ss -.
The Rotation begins with corn upon
clover sod, the clover being filed with seed
at the time, and all the manure Of the farm
yard ploughed under with it. He ploughs
deeply for corn, and aims to bury the clover
seed so deeply that it will not be brought to
the surface or germinate before it is wanted.
His corn is worked on the surface
For the crop of oats, the ploughing is
shallow, that the turf below, and the seed,
may not be disturbed.
For wheat the oat stubble is ploughed
deeply, bringing to the surface the rotted
turf and clover seed, making good dress
ing for the crop of grain and seeding the
ground amply for a ''set'' of clover without
additional seed. ......... -...
The fourth year the clover is grazed a
part Of the season and enough allowed to 60
to seed to seed the ground again. This is
ploughed down deeply and wheat sown in
the fall. ....-.
The fifth year, after the wheat comes of,
the stubble is again deeply ploughed to
bring up the rotted turf and seed of the fore
going year, and wheat sown again.
The sixth year the wheat is followed by
clover, which occupies the ground during
the seventh after which the corn begins the
rotation as at first.
We give this plan Of cropping, that our
readers in arranging their rotations may
have the benefit of its suggestions, the econ
omy Of clover seed is woythy of notice
Yet it is by no means certain, to our mind,
that this advantage is not gained at too great
an expense. The turning under of the clo-
yer stems after they had ripened the seed,
would we think be unfavorable to the crop
of wheat. And the seed terminating as it
would in the fall Immediately after the
wheat seeding, the clover would advance
rapidly in the spring to the injury Of that
crop. Under ordinary circumstances clover
seeded in September, Or early in October
will bloom and mature, nearly as soon as
that sown the previous spring. A vigorous
and thick growth Of wheat may however 50
restrain it as to prevent an injurious inter-
ference.
