HYMN TO THE PEOPLE.

BY c. D. STUART. Not to be blest with warrior strength,
 To wield the sword and wear the glaive. Or rise to conqueror's fame at length,
 Prcclaims the good or makes the brave. To have the power to bde the scorn, And rise above the hate and strife Of those to wealth and title born
 Is the crown'd courage of our life. What are the swords that prop a king
 The banners. in his army's van--- To strength of soul that dares to spring
 And show the monarch in the MAN? Kings and the mightiest men of arms,
 Strong as the heads of realms they bide, Sport as they may with fortune's charms, They are like leaves upon the tide. In dim of old sepulchres they lie,
 The feast of silence and decay, While the true world heart beateth high And thrones itself upon to-day. Give me the man whose hands have tossed The corn-seed to the mellow soil, Whose feet the forest depths have crossed Whose brow is nobly crown'd with toll.

STAND AS AN ANVIL"
DY pIsnor poANE.

BY BISHOP poANE. " Stand like an anvil v when the strokes Of stalwart strength fall fierce and fast Storms but more deeply root the oaks, Whose brawny arms embrace the blast. Stand like an anvil!' when the sparks Fly far and wide. a fiery shower; Virtue and truth must still be marks
 Where malice proves it's want of power C Stand like an anvil 1" when tho bar Lies red and glowing on it's breast; Duty shall be life's leading star,
 And conscious innocence it's rest. Stand like an anvil" when tho sound Of ponderous hammers painsthe car Thine but the still and stern rebound or the great heart that cannot fear z Stand like an anvill" noise and heat Are born of earth and die with time The soul, liko God, it's source and seat, Is solemn, still, serene, sublime.

Agricultural Societies.

A very intefesting sketch is given in the Patent Office report just published, oi the origin, number, condition, &c., of the various State and county organizations in existence, throughout the United States, for the promotion of agriculture.
 The first agricultural association incor- porated in this country was the "Society for the Promotion of Agriculture" eslab- lished in South Carolina, in l7S5. In l79l ''Society for the Advancement of Agriculture, Arts and Manufacture" was founded fi in the city of New York, but it ceased to exis! in about ten years. Next in chronological order is the "Massachu- sets Society for promoting Agriculture, ;" which was incorporated in l792, and con- tributed largely to the advancement of it's objects. Some of its members, residing in the county of Middlesex, afterward or ganized the first county agriculture asso- citation formed in the United States. Sew eral other societies of the same kind after ward sprung into existence within a few years, and in August, 1910, Ekannah Wastern, of Berkshire, Mass, was instru- mental in getting up the first agricultural fair ever held in America. From that time. efforts in behalf of agriculture re- ceived new impulse, and associations were soon formed in most of the older States. The "American Institute, of the City of New York, Twas incorporated in 1928, rendering the most efficient service i; and four years after, the "New York State Agricultural Society" commenced its use- ful career. At the present time societies, or boards of a similar character, have been incorporated in nearly all the most popu- lous States, besides numerous county so- cieties, all having the same objects in view, making an aggregate of about eight hum dred distinct organizations.

REMARKABLE MEMoRy.-John Frank. lin was a native of Canaan, Liechfel( county, Connecticut An instance of his remarkable memory, when lad of seven teen, will show that he was no ordinary boy.
 Having accompanied the family to the place of worship, the meeting-house being only closed, but neither ceiled or pastered the beams and ralters were all exposed to view.
 John saw that his austere father sat through the sermon with great uneasness, but could not divine the cause.
 On returning home, "John," said his father, "it is my duty to give you severe thrashing, Common in old times) and you shall have it presently, so prepare yourself"
 "But you won't whip me, father, without telling me what for?''
 No, certainly-your conduct at the meeting, sir, is the cause. Instead of at- tending 10 the sermon, you were all the time gaping about, as if you were count ing the beams and raliers of the meeting. house."
 "Well, father, can you repeat the ser mon ?''
 "Sermon, no. I had as much as could do to watch your inaitention."
 "If I tell you all the minister said, you won't whip me 2"
 "No, John, no; but that is impossible y
 Young Franklin immediately named the text, and taking up the discourse, went through every head of it with surprising accuracy.
 Upon my word,' said the delighted parent, II should not have thought it."
 "And now, father, said John, T can tell you exactly how many beams and ralters there are in the meetng-house."
