SPRING.
Il. WHITMOkE,
Publisher and Proprietor.

The sweet south wind-so long
Sleeping in other cimes ON sunny seas,
Or dallying with the orange trees
In the bright land of song;
Wakes unto us, and laughingly sweeps by,
Like glad spirit of the sunlit sky.
The laborer at his tolls
Feels on his cheeks its dewy kiss, and lifts
His open brow TO catch its fragrant gifts
The aromatic spoil
Borne from the bloss0ming garden of the south,
While its faint sweetness fingers round his
mouth.
The bursting buds look up
And greet the sunlight, while it fingers yet
On the warm hillside. and the violet
Opens her azure cup
Meekly and countless wild-hOwers wake to
fling
Their earlier incense on the gales of Spring.
"a The reptile, that hath lain
Torpid so long within his wintry tomb,
Pierces the mould, ascending from its gloom
Up to the light again;
And the little snake crawls forth from caverns
chill,
To bask as erst upon the sunny hill.
Continual songs arise
From universal nature; birds and streams
.Mingle their voices; and the glad earth seems
Thrice blessed Spring. thou dearest gifts
Sunshine, and song, and fragrance, all are
thine!
Nor unto earth alone!
Thou hast blessing for the human heart,
Balm for its wounds, and healing for its smart,
Telling of Winter flown,
And bringing hope upon thy rainbow wing,
Type Of eternal life-thrice blessed Spring!

of time. The complaint which some people
make about faint sensation III the presence
of fruit, is not tanciful-they may be really
affected by it; for two continental chemists
have shown that, from the moment Of pluck
ing, apples, cherries, currants and other fruits
arc subject to incessant transformation. At
first, they absorb oxygen, thus robbing the
surrounding air of its vital clement. Then
they evolve carbonic acid, and this in far
greater volume than the purer gas is absorb
ed, so that we have poison given us in the
place of pure air, with compound interest.
Temperature affects the rate of changes,

AGRICULTURAL.

Tic notion prevails with many farmers
and others that the roots of plants actually
consume the manure in the soil-that it is
taken up and digestedsin the system of the.
plant md thus contributes to its growth.
The stock of corn or grass docs not cat, but
it drinks. All their food is taken in q liquid
state ,Water is the great solvent to absorb
and prepare the plant food. er,,.
Soil is nothing more or less than decomi-
posed rock with mixture of vegetable mat
ter,apd thc,growingrof crops takes nothing
from the weight or measure of the soil in
which they are grown. This has heen prov
ed by actual experiment, and may be proven
by others at any time.
Farmers are apt to dispute about the best
manner of applying manure to the soil,
whether son the sur kaceaor ploughed under,
tweyfoat: six OF eight. inches. The, rains
fall$on. the surface, passes into the Through
tie manure and absorbs the fertilizingproper-
ties contained in it, and thus the soil is i'm
prcgnatcd with It's juices in a proper condi-
ton to be taken up by the absorbing power
Of the roots to stimulate plant growth, or to
mature it's seed.
Some plants strike their root deep, others
shallow, but as general law, those that sup
plv nourishment to the plant range the sur
face, attracted there by tho influence of the
sun and atmosphere. Now if the manure is
placed too deep and the rain carries the sub
Stance still deeper, it is out Of reach of the
rootlcts that feed the plant and therefore its
value is lost.
During dry weather plants drop, wilt down
anisdie. This is not for want of plant food
about itsroots, but because, that food is, not
in such Condition thatthes spopgioles orroot-
let's can take up and apply it. A shower of
rain falls-thc soil is saturated-the plant is
foodissolvept-the plautis stimulate, lives
andgrows; howeverrich in plant food the soil
may be ;showcyer congenial to the growth of
vegetation the climate may bc-thcre can be
no growth without moisture. Togrow, vege-
tation requires moisture, heat and light. 1t
may be done to some extent without soil,
but not to any useful purpose. Seeds vcge-
tate better in the dark, but the living plant
requires moisture, heat and light. We re-
peat that the farmer should try to keep the
manure near the sdffaec, for every rain
that falls carries more or less fthe plant food
deeper and deeper, until it reaches depth
so low that the, sun and atmosphere have but
little, intlueuce.A Every fafiber aud gardener
is well aware Of tic fact, Chat however rich
and well manurcd his land HAY be, grain,
grass, or other plants will lot grow in it
without moisture the rpason is, that the
food Of plants must be in 4 Auil state, or the
roots cannot absorb and apply it to the plant
growth.
