The Epigrain was nri'ten some lime ago

Jov and Grief. How differel

Joy and Grief. How different
are summer storms from winter ones! In
winter they rush over the earth with all
their violence; and if any poor remnants
of foliage or flowers have fingered be-
hind, these are swept along ut one gust.
Nothing is left but desolation; and long
after the rain has ceased, pools of water
and mud bear token of what has BEEN
But when The clouds have poured out
their torrents in summer, VIXEN the winds
have spent their fury, and the sun breaks
forth again in its glory, al! things seem
10 rise with renewed loneliness from their
refreshing bath. The flowers glistening
with rain-drops smell sweeter than before;
the grass seems to have gained another
.br ghter shade of green; and the young
plants, whish had hardly come into sight,
have taken their places among their fell
lows in the borders, SO quickly have they
sprung up under the showers Inc ar,
too, which may previously have been OPP
pressive, is become clear and soft and
fresh. Such, too, is the difference, when
tho storms of affection fall on hearts unre-
newcd by Christian faith, and on those
,uho abide in Christ. In The former they
brig ont the drsariness and desolation,
which may before have been unapparent
The gloom is not relieved by the pros
pect of any cheering ray to follow it. o
flowers or fruit to show Its benefi
cence. But in the truly Christian soul
though s0ssp;ng endure for night JOG
comes in the naornins. A sweet smile o
hope and love follows every tear; ant
tribulation itself is turned into the chic
of blessings.-Sslseted.

Voiceless Verse. :

The world is rife with nobler thought
Than trembles on the tongue
The world is toll of melody
Uuwritten and unsung.
The music of march is sweet.
But action is sublime.
And you may live nobler verse
Than can be told in rhyme !
Sweep from my sight these voiceless books
They vex my weary brain;
And / will sit at Natures feet
Her open page the plain
And read pleasant pastoral
In every blade that grows
A lyIic ia The lilv-lesf.
An epic in the rose.
Let Tyres and inte., with tinkling breath
To lOve-sick gills belong

Local Newspap ers.--We cheer.

fully endorse the remarks of cotempor
airy, that loca! newspapers should be a
reflex CT the business and prosperity of
their place of publication. an d one ought
to be impressed with the importance of
this fact who has charge of such journals.
1t should be the imperative duty of all
business men TO patronize, sustain and
encourage their local journals, not only
for their own individual interest, but for
the welfare of the community in which
they are published. Local news of local
papers is so regarded by intelligent bus
mess men in every place. 1t is through
this source that one is qualified TO judge
of the business and activity of towns and
villages; therefore the necessity of liber-
ally patronizing local papers, not only by
tue way of advertising, but in furnishing
he material TO make them entertaining
and profitable to all. 1t cannot be ex-
pccted that an editor is cognizant ofall
that is transpiting throughout the town
and country, and for this reason every
man should feel il a privilege to assist in
in making public, through the papers,
events of daily occurrence in the commun-
ity in which he resides. BY this course
editors can furnish their respective pa
pers q complete record of oil that
transpires of interest in town and
Hudson North Star.

Faith.-Entireness, illimitableness,
is Indispensable to faith. What we be-
lieve wholly and without reserve; where
fore the only perfect and satisfying object
of faith is God. A faith that sets bounds
to itself, that will trust thus far and no
farther, is none. 1t is only doubt taking
0 nap in an elbow chair. The husband
whose scepticism is prurient enough to
contemplate the possibility of his wife's
proving false, richly deserves that she
should do so.--S:iected.

BEAUTIFUL HOMES.

The proportion of really beautiful homes,
even in the oldest settled portion of the Free
States, (says an agricultural writer,) is lamen-
tably small. Regarding this as resulting from
inadequate pecuniary resources, we venture to
reaffirm that the whole land of the Pnritans
might have been rendered far more pleasing to
the eye than it is at present. without involving
any very considerable additional expenditures.
Even now, fund might be provided for cmhel-
fishing all the country residence in the Eastern
States, were il practicable to coin back into
their original cost the gaudy, inappropriate,
meaningless decorations which could be adyan-
tageously stripped off from the architecture
and dressed grounds of our suburban cottages
and mansions For this sort of what may b,
styled aesthetic dsgraces, indeed, we, as {
people, have paid smartly; since of offences
against the beauty of utility, Of propriety, o
form and of sentiment, every neighborhood il
the country contains examples enough to hui
initiate any national pride that may strive tC
shut eyes against such ridiculous msnppropri
atoms of money!

DEEP CULTIVATION.

Deep cultivation turns the drouth itself to
good account, and renders mulching and irri-
cation comparatively useless-or, if uses, more
effieacious. During dry spell, and in trenched
ground, roots strike deeper in search Of food
and moisture, becomes more extensively rami-
fed, and soon find the rich loan and manure
interminged deeply with the soil. The leach
ing process as it is Called is reversed, and takes
place upwards more than at any other time
or, in scientific phrase, capillary attraction i
increased. As each particle of moisture is
eyaporated from the surface it is succeeded by
another, and the whole soil is filled with the
ascending moisture and gases, which are APP
propriated by the numerous rootlets, as they
have need
