The Vanity OF ha0ddy.

There is dreadful ambition to be
"genteel." We keep up appearances
too often at the expense Of honesty
and though we are not rich. VIC mus,
seem to be so. We must be respect
able though only in the meanest
sense-in mere vulgar outward show
We have not the courage to 90 patti.
emily onward in the condition of life
to which it has pleased God to call us
but must needs live in some fashion.
able state to which We ridiculously
please to call ourselves, and to gratify
the vanity of that unsubstantial, gen
teel world of which We form a part
There is a constant struggle and pres.
sure for front seats in the social am.
phitheatre; in the midst of which all
noble, sclt-dcnying resolve is troddcr
dowr, and many fine natures are inev.
itably crushed to death. What waste
what misery, what bankruptcy, come
from all this ambition TO dazzle Others
with the glare of apparent worldly
success We need not describe. The
mischievous results show themselves in
a thousand ways-in the rank fraud,
committed by men who dare to seen
poor; and in the desperate dashes a,
fortune, in which the pity is not SC
much for those who fail as for the
hundreds of innocent families who are
so involved i'm their ruin.

A PRrzE Essay ON TIE CuLTuRr

A PRIZE Essay on THE CULTURE
OF ToBAcco.-At the recent Fair OF
the Mocklenburg, (Na) Agricultural
Society, Mr.. Evans Tanner was award
ed prize of ten dollars for the follow
ing essay, entitled A Plan for Prepar-
ing Land and Cultivating Tobacco for
Shipping" lst In the fall l fallow my
land with two horse plow, following
the turning pillow with a good coulter,
as deep AZ possible. AS soon after the
first of January as the weather will ad-
init, | burn my plant land having pre-
pared my wood in the month of De-
cember, or earlier, ifconvenient, burn
ing the land well--after the burning /
cover the land with stable manure and
Peruvian Guano or otherfertilizer, and
hoe it in, not very doep, without turn
ing up the soil. After sowing tread OF
root the land we'll and cover well with
brush, regulating the thickness Of the
covering by the kind of land; if wet
cover thin, if dry cover heavily. After
the plants are up, if the flies depredate,
feed them upon tobacco seed; it is the
surest antidote known to me. After
the plants get about five inches high,
commence the preparation of my land
in the following manner. Iattach two
mould boards to common trowel hoe,
which L prefer TO turning plow; into
this furrow | drill manure and fertiliz-
ers, then run one furrow on each
side with q single horse pillow, covering
the manure. On this ridge with stick
or small pole, about three feet for ordi-
nary land and three and half for
highly improved. The plant may be
inserted in the mark made by the stick
or pole, or short distance from it.
This makes the row both ways. After
six or eight days, depending upon the
weather, run two furrows, this will
leave but small space to weed, if done
by q careful hand. About the time
design to apply little dirt to the plant,
| run close to the tobacco with bull
tongue plow, and apply the manure or
fertilizer second time, then throw out
the row with a turningplow two burrows
generally suffice. The hoe hand has
but little to do, merely putting a little
dirt to the plant. The last time | work
it, | use the trowel hoe with two mould
boards once in row, then hill it with
a large high hill which prevents drown
ing. l prime low, not above the two
first large leaves, and at ten leaves, not
higher, and let it get thoroughly ripe,
when | commence cutting. | get
hands enough to cut and fill twenty
feet barn in II day. The next morning
| put small fires, increasing them every
morning for five days, which is general
ly sufficient to cure the tobacco. BY
pursuing this my yield is generally
about four plants to the pound. may
say that if any young farmer will adopt
this plan, | venture he will never re-
pentit. forgot to mention that if the
tobacco ripens yellow it will cure up
yellow, and uice rerso.

A Time for All Things,

An exchange says IF, instead of
the closing anthem, some of our min
listers should at the close of service,
give the orders, Attention, worship
pers for hats, dive! For overcoats,
go jerk, twist, plunge Make your
selves ridiculous all!' the effect would
hardly be variation from the pres
ent style of getting ready to go out of
church. The singing of the doxology
seems to be the signal for a general
putting ON and adjustment and when
the benediction is about to be pro-
nounced the ruflled congregation look
more like jumping out of windows or
uniting in a crushing and crowding
race for the doors, than listening to
the solemn words of the good pastor.
At one of our well filed churches, on
Sunday evening, il was observed that
at least every third man was going
through these ridiculous motions while
the services were closing, although the
sermon had been excellent. Why do
not people wait until the proper time
10 do these things? There il a time
for everything, but that time does not
always occur during service"

THE SEVENTH YEAR RAIN SEASON,
Mr.. j. T.. lIickok, of Whitcsville,
Missouri, writes as follows to the edi
tor of the Farm journal. We submit
without comment:
" Would il not be we'll TO draw your
readers attention to this year 1872,
az being the regular septenuial rainy
season? d" Being forewarned is being
forearmed." In 1858 | was farming
in Illinois. We had some 10 acres OF
corn we could not cultivate in the mud.
No matter how many wet seasons in
teryepc, think we may surely prepare
for abundance of rain every seven
years. Let our farmers all strive TO
get their corn ground ready for the
seed early and plant while fresh, be-
fore the weeds have started. Then,
perhaps, one good cultivation can be
given the crop, which on new lands at
least, win give a fair yield. The great
secret in raising a good crop of this
important staple, (any season. lies in
getting ahead Of the weeds, when it is
comparatively easy, to cultivate prop
erly."

seed Corn.

No one will deny that great care
should be observed in selecting seed
corn to plant, and yet a number of far
mers never see their seed corn until il
is carried to the field at the planting
time. We think the best way is to
place a barrel in the corner of the
crib, and throw in every large and Wig
orous ear. Shell off about two inches
of the large ends, in order to get the
largest and most prolific grains. This
produces a large and healthy plant
that grows much faster than small ones
do. Many farmers may think it quite
tedious job to select an ear of corn
planted in this way; but they will not
think so after giving it a trial, and Sc
lectlng as much as possible on rainy
days. This plan once adopted will
ever be adopted afterwards. Try it
you will never regret it but fiud it re-
lnuneratiye.

From the New York Observer.
DIVISIONS.

" So there was a division among the
people because ofIIim." There are di.
visions now even among those who be-
licye i'll Him. These divisions are
likly TO continue. But let one fact be
remarked All evangelical Christians
are agreed in the one fundamental
point--sdlration through Jesus Christ
Agreed here, their differences on other
points are of minor Importance. do
not say they are of no consequence
which is saying error is as good as
truth-but, agreed on the fundamen-
tai, differences on others are of minor
consequence. Jesus Christ and him
crucified is the hope Of every Christian.
here ID your only hope, for there is
salvation in no other. Then how ut
terly worthless are the excuses among
Christians So many opinions, we
know not which is right! These opin-
ions affect not your salvation in
the least! Your hope lies, not in
those things about which Christians
differ, but in that very point wherein
they all agreed-in Christ crucified-
salvation through atoning blood, justi-
fed by faith in Christ's Righteousness
Instead of looking at the points of
difference, look at the point of argu-
ment. On this depends your present
hopes and your immortal destiny.
There should be no dissentions
among Christians. They should agree
to differ and not contend. 1t is not
true that it matters not what we be-
licve. Truth is always important, for
it is beneficial, and error is always
hurtful. Still we should remember
that differences of opinion are to be
expected, and we are liable to err as
well as others. Hence we should be
charitable in our judgment of those
who differ from us, and simply
inculcate what we believe to be true
and not turn aside to engage in con-
troyersy with others.
The differences among Christians
are no excuse for unbelief. Even if
Christians differ in opinion, that is no
reason why men should neglect the
great salvation. Amid the divisions
which distract the Church and the
world, the Bible is your guide, and il
is our hope. Here is salvation.
