HEARlNe.- art Of hearing should be
taught in every well-resulated family. 1t
is full as important to domestic happiness as
aad time are expended. There are so many
things which it is painful to hear-many
which we ought not not to hear-very many +,
which, if heard, will disturb the temper,
corrupt simplicity and modesty, detract
from cententment and happiness; tina. every
one should be educated to take in or stut out
sounds, according to their pleasure.

The DEPARTURE OF SuAMER.-Although
we regret very much to lose the glowing
countenance of summer from our midst, yet
for various reasons we rejoice at the nymph's
departure. No more for this season at least,
if tn. cold weather continues, shall we bs
troubled with the sharp bills and fendish
shouts of mosquitoes. The dull, languid
feeling will depart, the sharp appetite re-
turn, and the system resume its elastic and
healthy condition. The only thing We par
ticularly regret on the approach of cold wea-
Their, is the fact that the ladies God bless
'em) are obliged, much against their own
inclinations, to cover up their shoulders with
thick, warm shawls as they pass along the
streets. We hope they may not suffer by so
doing, for there are thousand other ways
by which they can display their charms. If
cold must come, why, then we say let it
GENE, We shall welcome with pleasure the
cheerful fire and thick garments. Aye the
regular balmoral style; those striped and hg-
ured under garments, to show which, the
ladie. are compelled to display their pretty
little feet and well-turned ankles. Well
dispense with the pretty shoulders and the
mosquitoes, and welcome the cool term if for
nothing else; because Wen have an opportu-
nifty OF seeing the balmoral again, and its
sccompanyments of pretty little gathered
feet.

MODERN MODES OF FARsINe.-Perhaps in
no branch of the sciences has there been
greater improvements in the past few years
than in agriculture. In fact from being q
pursuit in which few general principles
only were acted upon, it has becom pure
science. Agricultural chemistry h Come
to the relief of the farmer. 1t bias given
him reason for doing many things which
he only did, because such was the custom. =
1t has told him how land can be cultivated
so as to preserve its strength while yielding
beautifully, and how land which has been
worn out by sueoessions of the same crops
can be renovated. 1t has told him that by
following certain rules, theresult of scientif
ic research, certain effects will be produced,
the LAND made to yield far more than it
did under the old system of cultivation. The
farmer has discovered that while it was
poor business to till the earth negligently,
under the system of high farming, as it is
termed, his profits are greatly increased
The full benefits of improved Agriculture,
however, are yet to be felt in this country.
