MAG A2tNE, commencing the Foriy-third volume,
opens by brilliant poem by Mr.. WTLAM ALLEN
BUTLKR, the author of Nothing to Wear"
The poem is entitled General Average" and
effectively portrays two characters not uncom-

chant, Pruceps, and jew. Of the firm Of Moses
& Bruiher, in"Second. hand Square;" and shows
that even in cunning a jew may receive a les

are characteristic the poem itself. and the lat

On that quiet summer night,
When the moon so clear and tender
Shed its pure unohangiug light;

With an aching bitter heart,
OF the chain so bright and golden
That was early torn apart.
Something pure seemed very near me,
Though ! could not see Your face,

In your old accustomed place.
Though could not hear your accents,

Gently stealing o'er my spirit,
Bidding all my mourning cease.

How ! missed you from my side,
Can in that land Of beauty
BE your own, your spirit brdeI
Cam | feel your arms about me,
Hear your whispered tones OF love
As heard them e'er we parted,
And you joined the band aboveY
IT'S 50 hard to bear my sorrow
Without one dear trusting friend,
But with your assistince darling
| can bear II 10 tho end
Yet. the hours are often bitter,
Others seem so gay and bright,
Yet perhaps the brightness covers
Hearts that shrouded ara With night.
'Tis 50 hard to guard such action,
Lest some secret we betray,

When our souls in Heaven stray.

Still ] feel your presence near,
Knowing that your love is lasting

Advantage of Thorough Cnlture,-

Advantage of Thorough CuituTe.-It
is fact which Is very generally accepted by
all parties, that the holding Of land by our farm
ers is in the main in undue magnitude with their
means Of culture so that the average product of
such lands er acre, is far less than it ought to
be. The cause of this failure to great extent,
is the want Of thorough aud timely preparation
Of the soil for the reception of the seed, and too
frequently gross neglect of the crop when grow.
iag.
The true philosophy Of farming seems to be in
producing the largest crops on The least space Of
land. As an illustration of this theory we are
under obligations to a well known and very wor-
thy Clergyman Of the NJ. z. Church, the Rev.
W. :. LrNT, for the following particulars of his
labor on one third Of an acre Of land, together
with the results this Sp ing thus far.
NJ. Lust began operations on this piece Of
land last FaU by thoroughly plowing and ma
nuring The value of labor and fertilizers placed
on this one-uird Of an acre amounted to S7j
This Spring he planted the land with lettuce,
spinach aud onions. Tie products up to this
date have boon:
Spinach $50 bushels at 60 cts........ 800
Lettuce 80 bushels at 81 ''''''''''' 30
Onions sold ...s.'.. .'.'''...... ..'...'' - 20
Probable worth fonions unsold ........ 40
Total e sOV
The space on which the spinach and lettuce
were grown is now occupied by fine plantation
Of strawberry plants now in full bloom and CIV
ing promise of fair crop. Such results from a
third Of an acre ofland is very remarkable and
yet they are such, as any other man could real
izs, by simply using similar means to those put
forth by Mr.. LUSr.
