1t is evident to all intelligent minds that the
time has come when those engaged in rural pJlr-
suits should have an organization devoted entirely
to their interests Such it is intended to make the
Order OF Patrons. 1t was instituted in 1867 its
growth is unprecedented in the tory of secret
associations, and it is acknowledged one of the
most useful and powerful Organizations in the
United States. Its grand objects are not only
general Improvement in husbandry, but to in
crease the generally happiness, wealth, and pros
perity Of the country 1t is founded upon the
axioms that the products of the soil comprise the
basis OF all wealth; that individual happiness de-
ponds upon general prosperity, and that the
wealth of a country depends upon the general in
telligence and mental culture of the producing
classes. tl4 II
In the meetings of this Order all but members
are excluded, and there is i'm its proceedings a
symbolized ritual pleasing, beautiful, and appro-
pirate, which is designed not only to charm the
fancy, but to cultivate and enlarge the mind and
pnrify the heart, having at the same time, strict
adaptation to rural pursuits.
The secrecy of the ritual and proceedings of
the Order have been adopted Gle ely for the pur-
pose OF accomplishing desired efficiency, exten-
sion, and unity, and to secure among its mem
bers, in the internal working of the Order conf
dence, harmony, and security.
Women are admitted to full membership, and
we solicit the cooperation of women because of
conviction that without her aid success will be
less certain and decided. Much might be said in
this connection but every husband and brother
knows that where he can be accompanied by his
wife or sister no lessons will be learned but those
of purity and truth.
The Order of the Patrons of Husbandr-y will
accomplish a thorough systematic organization
among Farmers and Horticulturists throughout
the United States, and will secure among them
Intimate social relations and acquaintance with
each other, for the Advancement and elevation
their pursuits, with an appreciation and protec-
ton of their true interests. By such means may
be accomplished that which exists throughout
the country in all other ayocatons and among
all other classes-combined cooperative associa-
ton for individual improvement and common
benefit. "a 8 FH p q 3 fsl

Pictures and Art Galleries.

1t is universally conceded that ecey one
loves pictures but the degrees of this love
are as numerous as are individuals them
selves.
In descending from the soul-enraptured
enthusiast, whose appreciation is highly
cultivated to the shallow criticism OF those
who are never affected beyond the surface
of their obtuse natures, and who can stand
before IN chef-d' oeurTe of one of the old or
new masters, and "damn it with faint
praise" without the least conception of its
merts-is to narrow this concession down
enthusiastically, and make one doubt if all
the sons and daughters of Adam have I'm
its true sense) taste for this beautiful art.
All paintings are not pictures, no more
than all people are artists or critics. To
distinguish picture Of power from mere
daub upon canvass, is the test of the true
lover Of art. The eye is educated as well
as the soul, and like everything else we
have to do with in this life, there is an in
finity about it which leaves one always
conscious Of steps in advance, not yet
taken. The lmitLeSs beyond that keeps
us ever dissatisfied with present knowledge
and attainments, and urges us on to greater
efforts, with more untiring zeal.
Are we not walking daily through the
most magnificent picture gallery the mind
can conceive of, which is fitted up anew
for us every season from the eXhaustless
wealth of glowing universe? We never
step into an art gallery, decorated by the
hand of man, without leaving behind us,
in the armament above, the earth beneath,
and tremulous illumination of atmosphere
around, the glorious reality of all we seek
in the initiative genius of man, wrought by
the hand of our Great Master Himself. In
picture delination, the nearer nature is APP
preached in colorng and shading, in per-
spective and atmospheric effect, the greater
is the power abiding i'll that picture to al-
ford study and delight. Usually, artists
have some strong feature predominating in
every picture upon which they have ex-
pended particular time and study, but
which is rarely read at first glance-pet
touches which reveal the character OF mind
and delicate perception and vision ola skilled
workmanship. If these master touches are
not revealed to the so-called 'lovers of art''
thronging the studios and galleries of our
best artists, theirs is neither the apprecia.
ting eye or soul for whom these marvellous
creations Of art are produced.
1t is well to remember that artists arc
peculiarly sensitive as regards the manners
of the world in handling their works. In
