THERE rs NO DEATH.

There is no death The stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore
J And bright in Heavens jeweled crown
They shine toreVermore.
There is no death The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer shower
To golden grain or mellow fruit,
Or rainbow tinted flowers.
The granite rocks disorganize
To feed The hungry moss they bear;
The forest leaves drink daily life
From out the viewless air.
There is no death The leaves may fall
The flowers may fade and pass away
They only wait through wintry hours, .
The coming of the May.
There is no death An angel form
Walks DER the earth with silent tread,
He bears our best loved things away,
And then we call them "dead !"
He leaves our hearts all desolate-
He plucks our faireSt, sweetest flowers
Transplanted into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers. -.....
The bird-like voice, whose joyous tones
Made glad this scene of sin and strife,
Sings now an everlasting song 'E
Amid the tree of life. .....
And where He sees a smile too bright,
Or hearts too pure for faint and vice,
He bears it to that world of light
To dwell in Paradise.
Born into that undying life i
They leave us but to come again; col.
With Joy we welcome them-the same
Except in sin aud palu.
And ever near us, though unseen
The dear immortal spirits tread
For all the boundless Universe
Is lite-There are no dead

4 AGRIGUITU URAH,
The Value of Feeding Materials.

There is much interest in ascertain
ing the relative value of different feed
ing materials. The last Scottish Far
mer has quite an elaborate article on
Oil cake, in which the writer states
the following as its feeding value, rel
atively to beans, peas, Farley and oats,
and also of beans and peas relatively
to oats and barley:
cwt of oil cake is equal to / cwt
of beans or peas.
cwt. of oil cake is equal to II cwt.
Of oats or barley
1 cwt. of beans or peas is equal to
j cwt. Of oats or barley.
In other words, three pounds of oil
cake are equal to four Of bes ms or peas,
and four pounds of oil cake to seven
of oats or barley He does not take
into account whatever difference in
quality of manure there might be in IA
vor of the cake But one consideration
he presents is equally true here, except
in the immediate vicinity of oil mills,
viz: that in country districts general
ly, if we sell grain and buy oil cake,
we sell in the cheapest market and
buy i'll the dearest; we pay the highest
price for what we buy, and receive the
lowest price for what we SELL

Important Requisites in a Wife.

A knowledge Of domestic duties is
beyond all price to woman. Every
one Of the sex ought to know how to
sew, and knit, and mend, and cook,
and superintend household. In ev-
cry situation of life, high or low. this
sort of knowledge is of great advan-
tage. There is no necessity that the
gaining of such information should in
tertere with intellectual requirement
or even elegant accomplishment. A
well regulated mind can find time to
attend to all. When a girl is nine or
ten years old, she should be accustom-
ed to take some regular share in house
hold duties, and to feel responsible for
the manner in which her part is per-
tormed-such as her own mendino
washing the cups and putting them in
place, cleaning silver, or dusting and
arranging the parlor This should not
be done occasionally, and neglected
whenever she finds it convenient she
should consider it her department.
When older than twelve, girls should
begin to take turns in superintending
the household; making puddings, pies,
cakes, &c. To learn effectually, they
should actually do'these things them.
selves, and not stand by and see 9th
ers do them. Many a husband has
been ruined for want of these domes-
tic qualities in a wife-and many a
husband has been saved from ruin by
his wife being able to manage well the
household concerns.
