The MAYOR WANTS TO SEE THEE.-A
young man, a nephew, had been to sea, and
Cd his return, he was narrating to his un-
Gle an adventure which he had on board a
ship.
Il was one night leaning over the taffrail,
looking down into the mighty ocean, said
the nephew, whom we will call William,
'when my gold watch fell from my fob and
Immediately sunk out of sight. The vessel
was going ten knots an hour, but nothing
daunted, I sprung over the rail, dove down,
and, after long search, found it, came up
close under the stern, and climbed back to
the deck, without any one knowing I had
been absent
William said his uncle, slightly cleva-
ting his broad brim, and opening his eyes to
their widest capacity, chow fast did thee

Ten knots, uncle?

William replied the uncle, gravely,
sthee knows I never call anybody names
but, William, if the Mayor of the city were

The FARMER.-Let every one of oul
farmer friends read the following truthful
tribute to the men who till the soil, which
we find in one of our exchanges
"What sovereign man is the intelli'
gent, industrious farmer. Within his OWL
realm of earth he wields a sceptre to which
all must bend. The balance of the worlds
life and comfort he holds in his stalwart
hand. Neither courts, nor armies, or fleets,
can exist without his aid. He is the feed.
er-and the garment virtually-of the race
Cities spring from the traffic in the pro.
ducts of his industry. Commerce is born
at his bequest. Ofthe State he is the 'firs,
estate Lord of the land, no man has
6rmer hold of the essential title of nobility
And he need be no plodder because he is a
farmer. The day is past when the soil tiler
was confounded with the clod turned by
his plow. The soili servitor he smites it,
anG 10 the harvest comes forth. The hoe
and sickle make him music braver than
dulcmers, and sound the march of tri
umph, grand as it is peaceful and blessed.
But he is not forever in the furrow. Fol-
him are the broadest fields of study-fair.
est fields of delight For him are honors
linked to beauties and VISIONS; for him
periods of communion and rapture, of which
the birds, the flowers, the stars, and all
wondrous things of the universe may bare
witness. A brave man art thou, wielder
of the mallet and plane; and thou, skillful
worker of webs; and deviser of all machines
whereby the labor of mans hand is speeded
or abridged. But ye are all second to the
farmer. He is master eff the needfuest Of
tolls and the most servicable products
He can live without you, but you cannot
exist for day without him. Honor to
the farmer; may his sphere widen and his
stature be exalted. And honor to all
honest toll, for such are the fruits that
form the crowniug glories of the world

farmer's 9epartment,
YOUNG MEN.

Some one has very wisely salu buat
if q young man wants to engage in busi-
ness that will insure him, in middle life,
tae greatest amount of leisure time, there
is nothing more sure than farming. The
| life of a farmer is the most Independent
life to lead, and the general idea prevalent
IN cities, that it is slavish one, is all hum
bug. There is no business in which we
can hope to flourish without application,
though in our opinion, the farmer may sue
ceed with less strain if we are allowed the
term, than the conductor of any other branch
of business. 80
What excuse can the young men of our
country, who are lolliug about with nothing
to do, and no prospect in life before them,
offer against becoming farmers? Too IN.
dependent! No, sir, it requires man Of
an Independent turn of mind to make q
good farmer. Your, health aoiW not admit
ofh2 Mistaken there. If you are dit
tie delicate the farm is the very place fol
you. A few weeks application in the pure
air, and under the influence of the invig
Grating sunshine, will work such a favor
able change in you that your friends will
scarcely believe you to be the same indi
vidual-in fact you will hardly know your
self.
Going to be a great man !-too prom'is
ing youth to aoaste yoasr life an such q
uulyar pursuit. All are you? Who
knows that? Did you ever hear of one
Cincinnatus, who in times past, was taker
from between the plow handles to become
the ruler of a people? Did you eve,
read of a Burns who sang along the new
made furrow some of the sweetest melodies
the world ever knew? Did you ever heal
of Washington, Webster, and Clay
who were not too great to be farmers
and yet none we're ever greater? Shame
on the one who will put forth such an ar
gument, in hopes thereby to crawl out Of
earning an honest living, merely because
there is little of that dreaded thing called
work in it.
Young man, if you are out Of employ
ment, do not loaf about the towns and cities
waiting for some unknown streak of fortune
to turn up, until you are nuisance in the
community, curse to your friends, and a
vagabond on the face of the earth. Go tc
the couptry and live-to some thrifty farm
er. Follow up the business with will,
and as soon as you are able, buy yourself a
small spot of ground. This accomplished,
keep within your means, SO as to avoid
those friendly fellows, known as lawyers
be temperate, so the doctors will have nc
business with you; be honest, so you can
sleep soundly when your days work is done
improve the soil, so you can comfort your.
self with the reflection that when You die
you will leave the world in better condi,
tiou than that in which you found it, and
our word for it, you will be all right-and
never otherwise. If you are not, mark
yourself down as hard case, for there is
not the least shadow of hope for you.

CHANGING SEED.-A writer in the Nep
England Farmer says his potato crop has
increased from fifty to one hundred per cent,
by procuring seed potatoes which grew on
an entirely different soil, fifteen or twenty
miles apart from his. This plan of chan
giug seed every year is good one, either
for potatoes or any other seed, such as
grain and garden seeds; and even if the
change is made only between cullivators in
the same vicinity, it is still beneficial.
