START THE TOMATOES EARLYs--Those using
 hot-beds will have their plants up by this Etime Those who have no hot-beds can gain
 some time by starting them in pots in the
 house. After the plants are up and have
 made two or three rough leaves, transplant. them into small pots, and give them plenty of light and air. The small thumb pots may be
 used for the first potting, and as they are SO small that they readily draw out, a number of
 them may be placed in a box and surrounded by moss, saw dust, sand, or any thing that vii
 retain moisture. When it is found by turning out the ball of earth that the roots have filled the pots, they may be shifted to those holding about pint, taking care all the time that the plants have an abundance of air and light, and
 grow stocky. They may be kept in their pot until all danger of frost is past, when they are to be planted out by turning out the ball of earth from the pot. Earlier and better fruit is obtained upon light sandy soil than from wet and heavy one. The small pears Shaped and the smooth red varieties are the earliest. The reeiee is few days later, but l is so much more prolific and finer every wa,vs that were we confined to one sort, we should choose this. American Agricnlturiss

WONDERS OF THE ATMosPHERE.-The at.
 mosphere rises abeve5 us with it's cathedral dome arching toward heaven, of which it is the most perfect synonym and symbol. It floats around us like that grand object which
 thes apostle Jehn Saw in his vision, a sea of glass; like unto crystal" So massive is 1t,
 that.when it begins to stir it losses about great
 ships like playthings, ,..and sweeps city and for
 est like snow flakes to destruction before it.
 And yet it is so mobile that we have lived
 for years in it before we can be persuaded that
 it exists at all, and the great bulk of mankind
 never realize the truth that they are bathed in
 an ocean of air. Its weight is so enormous
 that iron shivers before if like glass, yet soap
 ball sails through its with impunity, and the
 tiniestinsect waves it aside with his.wing. It
 ministers lavishly to all our senses. Wetouch
 1t not, but it touches us. It's warm south
 wind brings back color to the pale face of the invalid it's cool west winds refresh the fe. cheeks even it's northern blasts brace into new vigor the hardened children of our rugged climate.
 The eye is indebted to it for all the magnif- eenee of sunrise, the brightness of midday, the cksstened radiance of the morning, and the clouds that cradle near the setting sun. But for it, the rainbow would want it's "tri- umphant arch," and the winds. s..would not send the heecy messengers on errands around the heavens; the cold ether would not shed snow- feathers on the earth, nor would drops of dew gather on the flowers. The kindly rain would never fall, nor hail-storm nor fog diversity the face of the sky our naked globe would turn its tanned and unshadowed foreheadI to the sun, and ene:dreary, monotonous blaze of light and heat dazzle and burn up all things.
 s Were there no atmosphere, the evening sun would in moment set, and, without warning. plunge the earth into darkness. But the air keeps in hand shield of rays, and lets them slip but slowly through her fingers, 80 that the shadows of evening are gathered by degrees, and the flowers have time to bow their heads, and each creature space to find place of rest, and to nestle to repese. In the morning, the garish sun would at ,one bound, burst: from the bosom of the night, and blaze above the hori- zon but the air watches for his coming, and sends first but one little ray to announce his approach, and then another, and then hand full; and so gently draws aside the curtain of night, and slowly lets the light fall on the face of the sleeping earth, till her eyelids open, and like man she goes forth again to. labor until evening. London Quarterly Revisao.i

HYMN FOR THE NATIONAL FAST, APRIL 30, 1863 ssIs it such fast that have chosen-a da, for man to aflict his soul; to bow down hi! head like bulrush, and to spread sackclotl and ashes under him? Is not this the fas that 1 have chosen to loose the bonds O wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, te le the oppressed go free, and that ye break ever, yoke ?"-Isaiah vii: 5, 6. In deep humility, Worshipping only Thee,
 Prestrate we fall.
 And while thy name we bless, And own Thy righteousness,
 Lord in our sore distress.
 On Thee we call.
 Our great sin we bemoan-
 Our fathers and our own;
 We cloak no more The hundred years of wrong We've nursed and made so strong, The sin we've loved 50 long E We now deplore.
 As sovereign, on Thy throne Vengeance sits not alone
 To scourge our land;
 Mercy comes nearer Thee,
 And, on her pended knee,
 Holds back, with her strong plea,
 Thy chastening hand. Beneath the tempest's tread The bulrush bows it's head;
 But when the blast That humbled it is o'er,
 It lifts itself once more
 As proudly as before
 The storm oerpassed. So be it not with us
 But, while we bow down thus Beneath thy frown,
 Let us, with penance meet,
 Lie lowly at Thy feet,
 And ne'er the sin repeat
 That brought us down. Washington, D. C., April 5, 1863.
