his labors But where? High up Tho
southern base Of salt ash mountain, where
the morning dawn breaks the shade Of nigh
the earliest, and where the evening twilight
fingers longest, tradition locates his grave
no marble monument marks tie spot-tht
stranger knows not that he reads above tho
ashes of departed worth-but the storm

against the southern brow of that noun

In commenting upon farming as il is, the
remarks were mainly upon the error nioS'
farmers still adhere to, in not cultivalng the
soil on scientific principles, and not inform
ing themselves upon those subjects that are
more nearly allel to their welfare as farm
ers. Relative TO Plymouth farming as II
will be, the speaker took the position that
much depended upon the exertions OF the
men now upon the stage Of action-that we
stood in the same relation to Plymouth ag-
riculture as It will be. as the early settlers
of the town stood in relation 10 farming as
it Is, and under this head urged the neces-
sity of introducing into our common schools
such studies as win prepare our children to
take higher position, as agriculturists, than
we have been able to take.
