Wealth of old Romans.

THE TEAR OF SYMPATHY.

- How softly the tear of sympathy falls on
The heart bruised and broken with sorrow =
It assures the sad and weeping soul that it is
not alone in the wilderness of cold hearts !;
that there are those who can feel for the trou-
bles of others and OH what is more cheering
to an aching heart than such thought? The
desire to be loved is human nature in its pur-
ty.1 1t is the first impulse Of the opening
heart and il lives and breathes in the bosom
of all until the hour of death. A look of
love- a word of kindness, tear of sympathy
costs us nothing. Why, then withhold them
from those who would prize them as blessings,
winged with the fragrant dews of heaven p
TO give them costs US nothing, but it often
costs as an effort-a silent pang at the heart,
did we but confess ito withhold them; for
he must indeed be misanthrope, whose heart
does not delight in going out to bless and be
blessed.
The tear of sympathy never falls in vain.-
!. II waters and fertilzes the soil of the most
sterile heart, and causes it to flourish with the
beautiful flowers of gratitude and love. And
rs the summer clouds weep refreshment on the
parched earth, and leave the skies more beau
tiful than before, with the rainbow of prom
!. Use arching its eeruean dome, SO the tear oi
sympathy not only refreshes the heart or
which il drops, but it elevates and beauties
the nature of him from whom it springs. A
sympathising heart is spring of pare watel
bursting forth from the mountain side. Ever
Tpure and sweet in itself. it carries gladness and
joy on every ripple of its sparkling current

Michigan Democracy--Gen. Cass In
sulteds

Michigan Democracy has gone to seed and
is dying out. 1t had just vitality enough left
to hold State Convention at Detroit on the
2sth, and nominated an old fogy ticket with
j ohm S. Barry at its head for Governor, who,
a quarter of century ago, made tolerable
good candidate, but has long since become fos-
silzed. The young DEN mocracy, if any exists
where party has run down so rapidly as the
Democracy in Michigan, was efftctualiy crush
ed out, and very properly so, by a Convention
which endorsed those newly-born Conserva-
tives and Union-savers, Douglas and johnson.
Gen. Lewis Cass, Secretary of State, and
the father of Michigan Democracy, arrived at
Detroit on Wednesday, to remain for several
weeks at his old home. He had been absent
three years in dscharging the duties pertain
ing to the second position in the civil. service
of the country. A delegate in the Democratic
Convention offered a resolution inviting Gen.
Cass, as had been before done, at State Con-
ventions, to visit the Convention and address
the delegates. It was laid on the table by an
almost unanimous vote, and on a subsequent
motion to call it up, only about a dozen mem
bers sustained iti Was ever an old States
man so wounded in the house of his friends p
The insult could not have been more direct, de-
li5erate and disgraceful, and must recoil on the
Douglas doughiaces.
We have no sympathy with Gen. Cass po-
liticaly, and no dispos ition to defend his polit
ical course. Though he has out-lived his party
its last kick in Michigan should not have been
in the face of the venerable haEcentury leader
- Cleveland Leader.

"a Small Farm Well TILED"

Elihu Burritt gives an acconnt in the Home
stead of visit TO the farm of Wm. Biruie of
Springfield. Mass, 'small farmer" with only
so acres of land, who yet keeps more stock aud
raises more grain and grass than many buud-
red acre farmers. Mr.. B. says: He keeps
80 head of cattle, horses, and several hogs,
all fed from the produce. The past year he
raised 1000. bushels of root ots--rutasbagas,
mapgel-wurtzel, and yellow turnips, Besides
corn, rye, and potatoes he also grew 500
worth of tobacco. "There is" adds Mr.. Bur
ritt, "no good reason to doubt, if the number
of farms in Connecticut we're doubled by max
ing two of each, and concentrating the labor
and manure now spread over 100 acres upon
90 acres, the production of the half would ex-
ceed that of the whole on the old system of ag-
ricultnre." Mr.. Birnie cuts and steams oil the
fodder for his stock, and thinks be thus effects
q saving OF 33 per cent, in the cost Of winter
ing his stock.

CultivAtins Hops

The London Star says On this subject A
valuable discovery in the cultivation Of hops
has just been communicated 10 the Academic.
Like most agricultural improvements it has
been the result of observations made by Is
boring peasant. 1t consists in making the
plant run in horizontal direction instead Of
climbing up the pole. This is managed BY
means of low trelis Of the simplest construc-
tion. The advantages of this mode Of culture
are numerous. In the first place it enables the
grower to investigate the plant while growing.
and cleanse it from the numerous insects which
iniure it to snch a vast extent ; then it is pro-
tected from the sun which always destroys the
upper shoots; it obviates the great deetruc-
ton of hops in stormy weather, when the
winds lay low whole hop grounds. from The
highth of the poles. and most of all, it enables
the gathering of the cones to take pace with
out uprooting the plant besides permitting the
selection of the ripest ones at first, and preven-
ting the great loss which arises from the nc
cessity of tearing down the whole plant TO get
the ripest blossoms. t4s

The Cattle Disease--Irish Remedy.

Since the cattle in the infected district in
Massachusetts, have been turned cut to grass,
the disease which spread such alarm appears
to have suddenly disappeared. So state the
Boston papers, and it is to be hoped that the
principal danger is over. The reported cases
in Canada have not been followed by others
and the alarm appears to have pretty much
subsidized.
fatal disease, resembling the pleuro-pneul
monia, has made its appearance in severa-
counties along the Hudson, says the N. Y.
Herald of Saturday. and has already taken a
number of cattle. At Wallis Gate, in Orange
county, fifteen have died within the last few
DAYS, and MIR. Storms, in Putnam county, lost
seven COWS in two weeks. 1t is believed that
the disease had its origin in the distillery sta
b!es in New York. Mr.. Ager, of Carmel,
lost five cows, by introducing into his herd an
animal confined for a long time in an under
ground stable in New York, and Mr.. Barnum
within a short time lost fifteen head of cattle
by turning them out to pasture from two
| months confinement in the hot stables under
| his barn.
No additional cases of the cattle disease are
reported in New Jersey. Is
The cattle complaint in Ireland prevails to
an alarming extent. The British papers re-
port that the subject was recently brought be-
| fore the Irish. Agricultural Society by Capt.
| Ball, who stated that it has made such fright
| fuI ravages among the dairy cows of that coun-
| try that farmers have refrained from investing
| in this otherwise remunerative stock, many of
them having lost by this fatal epidemic every
mich COW they possessed. But remedy, or
rather specific has been discovered, which
has proved none the less effectual that it is OF
most extraordinary and, here at least, a nov
ell character, being nothing more or less than
Turkish bath! DIR. Barter cured seven ont
of eight distempered animals on the first ex-
pertinent, and he showed farmer who had
| lost thirty COWS by the malady, how, for $50,
| no could construct rude bath, which, on be-
ing set up and tested, proved effectual in saving
all the rest of the cattle that caught the dis
ease.

The Strawberry.

Mr.. r. G. Pardec, Of New York, in n lee
ture st Yale College, on the Strawberry,
says -
The following. to cultivate that fruit, is the
best method:-Select warm, moist, but ex-
posed situation; for early berries, let it slope
to the east or south; for late ones to the north.
The soil should/be fine gavelcd loan. Avoid
high, barren soils. and those which are wet
To prepare the soil, make it clean; underdrain,
leaving the drain open at both ends, to allow
the circulation of air. Pulverize at least two
feet in Depth making ten per cent of the soil
as fine as superfine -four. For manure, ap-
ply thirty bushels of unloached ashes and
twelve bushels of lime Stacked with water,
holding three bushels of salt ir solution, to the
acre.
Transplanting should be done with great
care, and the rootlets of the plant injured as
little as possible The best time to transplant
is in the spring, though, with care, it may be
done any time during the SIMMER. The lee
turer said be would. in starting new bed,
place the plants three feet apart. Water may
be added with great advantage, in large guam
titles, except during the Towering and ripen-
ing periods, provided always, it does not stand
and become stagnant on the soil. The Doe
should never he used about the plants, as it
Injuries the roots. The productiveness Of the
strawberry about New York does not average
more than forty bushels to the acre. There is
no difficulty in raising one hundred and fifty
bushels under the cultivation recommended.
In the winter the plants should be lightly COW

Toads IN tho Carbon.

A correspondent writes TO us that he hss a.
ways been ot loss to account for the exist
ence of that unco mely reptile. the toad, sup
posing. indeed. that all created things had .
mission to perform in the world; but he has
lately discovered the use of the toad, namely.
he Is a destroyer Of the iiee or the ea56dgss.-
He says he is accustomed to keep his cabbges
clear of these pests by collecting toads and
letting them loose among them. This may
be new to some, and il ia certainly worthy of
trial by any. The toad has other uses thas
this He is an enemy of every species of 10
sect, and his services are far greater than We
are willing to accord 10 him. We have
before published articles sefti,tg forth the Der-
its of the toad. and we pow take occasion to
warn all against bis distinctions we know OF
no harm he does, but we do know be hae
thousand merits We hope to see the toad
appreciated in this country, as highly as 10
Europe, where it is considered worth while to
purchase them even at considerable expense.--

Tho methodist chur ch on Slavery

DR.. Haven sums up the action of the recent
Methodist General Conference on the Slavery
question, as follows:
l. The whole of the report of the Commit
tee on Slavery was adopted, except the pro-
posed change of the General Rule. and this
received one hundred and ffty-four votes to
only 6fty-seven opposed. The preamble
which was adopted, claims that change in
the General Rule is necessary only because
false interpretations have been put upon it,
and that it really. in It's old form, in spirit op,
poses slaveholding.
2. The old Chapter Of the discipline is ex-
plunged, and new one adopted.
The old one, by implication, allowed our
members to hold slaves, and the official mem
bers and ministers wherever emancipation is
forbidden by law, which is everywhere within
or reach, except in Delaware and the Dis
trict of Columbia. The new chapter con
demns ho lding, buying and selling human be-
ings to be used as chatttls, whether by minis
ters or members.
g. All other references to slavery, except
the above are stricken out of the Discipline.

A 1ananese ON American Politics.

a correspondent of the New York Tinea
(whonl we suspect to be none other than
Howe, the "Pasha,'0 indites a second epistle
purporting to be written by one Of the Japa-
nese ambassadors TO his friend Moonski:
But the government of the country, oh son
of Frum, is that which has most filled the
soul of thy cousin with wonder. The people
choose Tycoon from among themselves once
in four years. In making the choice they do
not say {: Has this man wisdom? Have the
planets rained the treasures upon him But
they say Can he run? Thus one party has
chosen man whose legs are longer than the
mandates of Mikado; for they say Behold,
he can run like the bird of the desert. And
they say of him, he is used to the splitting of
rails. In the wonder of my soul | say to Gen.
Scott Kami, is rail splitting one of the quail
fications of the Tycoons? And he made an
answer that his people designed to fence this
country in, and that honest Abe will do it =
Another party desires to have Tycoon whom
they call Douglas but the people say that
he cannot run well which must be true, as
his legs are exceedingly short and bis stom-
ach round. Another party say that for Ty-
coon they wish a great scribe whose name is
Ever-at-it. He delneates the sentiments Of
his soul upon paper called the Ledger. and
signs himself Bonner. 1t was this great
scribe that wrote the book called the Gun-ma.

translated into the language of Niphou, and
