THE SOUTHERN cuLT1YAToR

For October has reached US. We can do our
planting friends no greater service than to call
their attention to this agricultural magazine. 1t
is the leading representative of that revolution in
Southern farming, which has been inaugurated
since the war, with such happy results Its edi-
tors, though progressive, are evidently castious
men, attaGhing great weight to experience, as is
shown by the large number of articles in every
issue, written by practical farmers in the Southern
States. Its corps of contributors is unrivalled.
We notice that the publishers continue to furnish
to new subscribers, the letters contributed by Mr.
Dickson, embodying his experience and practice.
These alone are worth 90 years subscription. If
you have never seen the paper, send stamp to
Southern Cultivator, Athens Ca, for specimen
copy and examine it for yourself. Price $500 a
wear.

Amateur and Regular Physicians,

A writer in BritaRid, who went through the sick mill, and tried both amateur and regular physicians, ridicules the former and pays the latter the following well merited tribute:
 "For genteness courage, endurance, per severance, true benevolence, commend me to a [regularl doctor. know no profession go crowded with brave, noble natures ss the medical profession. They are the confessors of Protestants. They are the repositories, and in nearly all cases the faithful reposito- ries of terribly delicate secrets. They have greater power than any Catholic priest can have, to blast the happiness of many men and women. Bound by no sacred VOW, like the priest, their own consciences, their own high sense of honor-ay, if you will have it SO, friend Lizard. their self-interest-keeps them faithful 10 their trust. No class in the world have more opportunities of doing good, and avail themselves of those opportunities more assidionsly than doctors. In the hour of doubt, of fear, of despair, how we fly Co them! In the bangs of sickness, in the agony of death, how we cling to them In the hour of health, of joy, of hope, of confidence, how we slight them, how we abuse them We serve them as we too often serve our God iu distress we cry to them, in prosperity we neglect, we insult them. Oh, that had mil lions of readers, who would listen to my words when say, Before you abuse doc tors, before you insolently arrogate to your self knowledge of the most difficult and tho most useful science which man can learn pause, and think what mankind owes C them, what labor they have taken to gair their skill, and how you yourself, boisterOui though your health be now, may some day need their help"

Brigham Young's Property.

correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, gives the following schedule of Brigham's assets:
 Much has been written of bis sincerity in his religious professions, some writers hoot- ing the idea as the height of absurdty, others again claiming that his faith in Nor monism is perfect. Without advancing an opinion on the subject of his religious belief I desire to simply call the attention of those who are in an investigating mood to consider his financial convictions as embodied in his own personal estate. In the event of his de- mise, or translation, his inyentored list of goods and chattels and estate-real and per sonal mixed-will probably read as follows: F1st-City Greek Canon, a grant by the Legislative Assembly of Utah, a heavily wooded district, from which the Saints ob- tain their wood exclusively, every third load goihg to Highlands pile; fine water power, running four miles, income from this source, s20, 900 per annum.

Fast and Slow.

Our aims are all too high: we try
 To gain the summit nt a bound When we should reach it step by step
 And climb the ladder round by round. He who would climb the heights sublime, Or breathe the puTer air of life, Must not expect to rest in ease,
 But brace himself for toll or strife. We should not In our blindness seek To grasp alone for grand and great, Dlsdalning every smaller good;
 For triies make the aggregate And if cloud should hover OCT
 Our weary pathway like pail, Remember, God permits it there,
 And his good purpose reigns OCT all. Life should be full of earnest work,
 Our hearts undashed by fortunes froyn {; Let perseyeranee conquer fate,
 And merit seize the victor's crown The battle Is not to the strong,
 The race not always to the fleet. And he who seeks 10 pluck the stars
 Wnl lose the jewels at his feet.
