J.P. CARR believed in changing seed.
lie procured some seed potatoes from
Boston. He planted a barrel and half
last spring and raised 100 bushels. They
were handsome potato, and there were
no signs of disease.
ANDREW WARDEN was much in favor
of raising carrots for stock, especially for
horses. The seed needed considerable
moisture. however. For this reason
fall sowing was the best. He thought
one bushel of carrots was worth more
than two bushels turnips.
+. l.. IiovtY regretted that there was
50 much disparity in the experience OF
the farmers present. Some thought that
turnip, exhausted the soil, and could get
40 catch Of grass the following year,
while others did not find tne same expe-
riencc, and thought tia! turnips exhaust
ed the soil less than potatoes or corn.
But he believed the difference in soil ant
cultivation would account for this seem
ing contradiction in experience.

Wesley's Preaching.

1T was, | believe, in October, 1870,
Il and not long before his death,
that heard John Wesley in the great
round Westinghouse at Colchester. He
stoop in wide pulpit, and on each side
stood minister, and the two held him
up, having their hands under his arm
pits His feeble voice was barely audi
BILE. But his reverend countenance. es-
pecially his long white locks, formed
picture never to be forgotten. There
was vast crowd of lovers and admirers.
1t was, for the most part, pantomime but
the pantomime went to the heart. OF
the kind, never saw ANYTHING comma
rable to it in after life This incident
was never forgotten by Robinson. He
often related it at his own table, with
the addition that so greatly was Wesley
reverenced that the people stood in a
double line to see him as he passed
through the streets on his way to the
chapel In letter written at the time
to one of his brothers, he gave the fol-
lowing particulars of the same occur
renee - At another time, and not know
ing the man, should almost have ridi-
culed his figure. Far from it now.
look upon him with respect bordering
on enthusiasm. After the people had
sung verse of a hymn he arose and said:
1t gives me great pleasure to find that
you have not lost your singing Neither
men nor women-you have not forgot
single note. And [ hope by the asss-
tancc Of the same God who enables you
to sing we'll, you may do all other things
we'll a universal Amen followed.
At the end Of every head or division of
his discourse, he finished by kind of
prayer, momentary wish, as it were, not
consisting of more than three or four
words, which we're always followed by
universal buzz. His discourse was short,
the text [ could not hear. After the
last prayer he rose up and addressed the
people upon liberality of sentiment, and
spoke much against refusing to join with
any congregation on account of difference
of opinion. He said IF they do but
fear God, work Righteousness and keep
his commandments we have nothing to
object to.-'Diary Of Henry Crab Rob-
t1lSOn.

Beautiful Thoughts.

Beyond all credulity is the credulous
ness of the atheist, who believes that
chance conld make a world when it
cannot build barn.
Be not proud of riches, but afraid of
them, lest they be silver bar to cross
the way to heaven. You must answer for
riches, but riches cannot answer for you.
There is hidden thunder in the stores
of heaven ready to burst with burning
wrath, and blast the man who owes his
greatness to the ruin of his neighbor.
One of the hours in each day wasted
on trifles or Incidence, saved and daily de-
voted to improvement is enough to make
an ignorant man wise in ten years.
The shadows Of the mind are like those
of the body. In the morning of life, they
lie behind us; at noon we trampe them
under our feet, and in the evening stretch
long and deepening before us.

An Alteration of the Lords PRAYER,

A few years ago nothing would have
seemed more improbable than the delib-
crate alteration, by an authoritative body
of Christian clergymen and orthodox
Biblical scholars, of the phraseology and
meaning of the Lords Prayer, yet such
has been the case The New Testament
revisionists, now in session in London,
have voted that the literal translation of
the phrase +" deliver us from evil' should
be " deliver us from the evil one y and
they have decided to expunge the dox-
ology at the end of the prayer, as absent
from all the earlier manuscripts. Thus
shorn and altered, the great prayer of the
ages will sound unfamiliar indeed.

ss- Young women, you don't know
how much influence you have over young
men. If you would labor earnestly, we
should not have so many disspated young
men in our land. Do not let them fiji
the drunkard's grave. I suppose YOU
will say, 1 don't believe we have any,
thing to do with young mems getting
drunk" Think moment Did YOU
ever do anything to prevent? Did you
ever go with young man which had
been drinking little ? "I believe So"
Well, did you think as much of him as
you did before he drank mo" You
did not let him know it, did you? Z" No."
You should have said to him, IF you
drink, will not go with you any more"
You might have saved him from a
drunkard's grave. Win you say to the
young man who is attentive to you, that
you do rot mean to go with any young
man who drinks one drop of liquor He
may shun you few. days, but he will
think Of it, and will make up his mind
that you are right; for what woman
wants a drunken husband.

An Injunction,

From Surprise Valley comes the story
of an old fellow who got very jealous be-
cause his young wife went to ball with
a good looking fellow, and strayed out un-
til broad daylight. The old chap went
to justice of the peace and told his sto-
ry, winding up with 81 want yer to help
me, for that thing has been going on
about long enough" "Well," said the
justice, you can write down to Yreka
and see if some of the lawyers can't get
you divorce" "Divorce !" roared the
angry man, who the deuce wants di-
vorce? The justice began to get wrathy.
eff you don't want a divorce, what in
the deuce brought you here?" "Why l
want an injunction to stop further pro-
ceedings."

God Works Silently,

Drop piece of wool on the floor. Do
you hear it? No. 1t is noiseless. How
about the snow Does it make great
shout to tell us it is coming? Certainly
not. He giveth snow like wool. 1t is
voiceless And this is altogether char
acteristic of Divine operations. The great
forces of the Universe are mute. The Sun
never speaks. The Atmosphere is mute.
