TNFTNITY.

Infini.y, means the boundlessaess of
ANYTHING to which it is applicable. Ap-
piled 10 time, space, or quantity, it re-
feis to the vastneSs of this extent.
Space is infinite, for we can form no
definite idea of its extent. Our minds
are finite; hence our inability to Crap
pie with Infinity. Al things equal,
are capable of counterpoising each 9th
er; that is, by exerting power in some
way, these equals can, each overcome
the other. Therefore, as intinity is
equal to infnily, infinity itself is capa-
BILE of compfehending ininity, and it
follows that the term is applicable, on
ly 10 finite Beings such as We, and not
to the Infinite, who is the All-wise
Being. 1t follows, as we are finite Be
ings, that there is some limit to our
power; tina; is, we are able, only to ac-
comniish a definite amount, by exist
ing a definite force. As intini;y means
without limitation or boundary, and
as infinity is capable of mastering in-
fipiiy, by ezertiog an infinite amount
oE force: Therefore. nothing is infinite
to The Infinite Being who reigns ST.
preme, anu holds in sway the destiny
of all rnankind. Infnity in Matbe-
MATES, is tie limit of a variable quau-
tity, considered with another compared
with it, upon which there is q paiticu-
lar supposition made. For example,
if ny,hing be divided iDto three equal
parts, the whole will contain one of the
parts thee times.g>If each pG:S be di-
vided into three equal pats. the whcie
viii contain one of these nine times,
and thus you may continue, dd t.yt.li-
tina, when each of the last parts Will
be infinitely smaller than the whole,
and the whole infinitely Ia ger than
each of the last parts; That is, it will
be SO large with reference 10 that with
which it is compared, that we can form
no ADEQUATE idea Of the number of
times which it would contain it as a
urit of measure. Some have advanced
the idea, that by continued subdivi-
ding, we can arrive at that point when
we shall have nothing to subdiyidc.-|
This needs only to be understood 20
show its absprlity. If the point, at
which we shall have nothing TO subdi
vide, can be ieached, then the last half
of The last division is nothing; and as
alFflaives are equal, each half of the
last division is nothing; and as moth
ing X nothing nothiog: therefore the
last division consisted in dividing
nothing, and running the rule back,
the whole thing comes to nothing, and
annihilation Of matter is the result.
We would better cease operations, at
least one division, before arriving at
annihilaion.5 Infnity in Mai hen6at-
les, as in every thing else, is the point
beyopd,Nhich, our miads can not 90.
Some thugs are infinitely small,
others ale frfinitely large. All Tie
works of nature are capable Of infinite
research; and while we may contem-
plate thatwliichis finite, and-init, he
hold the wonderful works Of our Crea-
tor; when ,we, attempt to go beyond
the lire market aoGt'by the Infinite
Being, 5aiI is ceafusion,- and We are
wrecked on the eboundles5 ocean OF
mystery. ~ sl J. B. c.

ingenuity of despair has proved equal
10 the occasion. The husbandmen now
mix plaster dust, anis-seed Oil and dry
wheat, rnd plaeeis, with plenty of wa

the mixture; are soon very thirsty, and
when they have taken good drink,
the plaster sets-not to put too fine a
point upon it-solidifies inside the
creatures, and so they expire. The
plaster used is calcIned plaster, such as

the open ground is dry enough, set

never known them to be materially in

little by frost. Next to a hot-bed,
they may be easily sprouted in warm

FOREST C6IruRE.-The American

FOREST CULTU RE.-Ihe American
consul at Dundee, in Scotland, writes
to The Department OF agriculture, that
a firm in Dundee has shipped to this
country thirty thousand plants of what
is known as the Scotch fir, or highland
pine, for distribution in the great prai-
rie States OF the West. The plants are
sent in packages, each containing two
hundred and fifty. It is thought that
these trees will be peculiarly 2uitedto
the plains, as they are Very lis.rtiy and
of free growth. The same firm propo-
ses, if it is acceptable to the Depart
ment, to make another shipment Of
seventy thousand plants of the same
kind. The plants average eighteen
inches in height, and the Commission
er Of Agriculture proposes to distribute
them in the original packages from n.
York to parties who desire to test their
utility, and are willing to incur the ex-
peDse Of their transportation from New
YorS to their placelof destination.
