There il no exercise In the world equal to /
practical agriculture, God knew this when .
lac made il the original pursuit Of man. The |
first human pair stood forth IN perfect deyc- |
opmsnt ia the midst Of garden, The D- |
vine planter taught them, as no mortal can .
do, how 10 tend aud ill II. In later times .
when the garden was transformed to a desert,
man ftill adhered to agriculture, Through .
oil the changes Of the past, aud through all |
the revolutions Of the future, agriculture
leads the van. As It was the primal, so It
shall be the final pursuit Of man. Fashion
can never drive it out Of use, and Il. products
viii never be obsolete.
There are hundreds Of lank, prlc, dyspcp.
tic, walking skeletons, in every city, that sur-
fer untold horrors, for want of exercise
Locking perfect bodies, their minds are dis
ordered, and when mania for exercise like
the present, arises, all rush toward il for help.
None Of the fashionable forms Of exercise are
perfect remedies, They only develop part
Of the physical powers or, il otherwise, half
Of their nobility is lost in the thought of
their utter uselcssncss. Our advice is, get
pirce Of ground and work IT, II you can't
afford to buy, borrow. There is more unim-
proved land in ti11- world thuu II generally
We had rather contribute one
mite towards changing the wilderness to a
cultivated field, than to beat all The race
boats in acknowledgement Republican.
