REGENERATION.

Regeneration differs from sancti6caton as
gum differs from the fruit, or as the babe diff
fers from the full grown man. In the order
ofnature, regeneration precedes sancti6cation,
as justification precedes specification. Re-
generation is styled in the Scriptures, as being
born from above. No doubt this being born
from above is contrasted with our natural
birth, which may be called from below. All
that are born of the first Adam are born in
sin hence, we must be born of the Spirit, or
from above Regeneration is life, sancti6ca-
tion is that life developed, or under process
of development. Glorifed saints in heaven
are those who have been redeemed by the
blood of the Saviour, regenerated by his
Spirit, justified on account of his righteous
ness, adopted into his family and sancti6ed
by the operations of the Holy Spirit In
all Christ is all. He is the chief-the king
and captain of our salvation. The only an
them that will be sung in heaven, will be in
honor of him that loved us and washed US in
his blood. Without Christ there can be no
regeneration, no faith, no justification, no
adoption, no santi6cation, no holiness, no
glorifcation, no salvation, no heaven.

GARDENS.

Few persons have correct idea of the real
value of good garden. A very small patch
of ground, well-manured and properly cult
waited, will produce more in kitchen vegeta-
bles than in anything else. One acre of land,
properly managed, will support family of
ordinary size, one-half Of the year, with eve
rything but little bread and the meat that is
necessary to season the vegetables. Three
fourths an acre of land planted in potatoes,
one half Irish and the other half sweet, will
produce, at the lowest calculation, fifty bush.
els of each kind. The remaining fourth of an
acre will produce beans, peas, okra, tomatoes,
onions and cabbages sufficient for most fami-
lies. These, together with a corn patch, will
supply family not only with the necessaries
of life, but with the luxuries, also. With o
good orchard small patch of corn, potato
patch and garden, any family may live most
three-fourths of the year. We
have heard it asserted, by those who were
cognizant of the fact, that the Massachusetts
shoe-makers support their families on two
acres of land, and whatever they make by
is clear gain. Our climate and
soil is better adapted for such thing than
either the soil or climate of Massachusetts,.
Many of our people live all the year round
on fried meat, bread and coffee. This is the
poorest kind of diet, especially for our cli-
mate. For six months of the year, we, in
this climate, ought to eat but little meat.
The Irish, in their native country, eat but
little meat and drink no coffee Ireland is
fifteen degrees farther north than South Car
olina, hence the climate is much colder and
more meat is required to keep up the animal
heat. The only giants of modern times are
found in Ireland, and the Irish are the only
people that live on butter.milk and Irish po-
tatOes.

SANCTIFICATION.

l''fella
SANCTIFICATI0N.
There are some things, both in nature and
grace, which arc inseparably connected. This
is the case with sanctication and justifica-
ton. In fact, they are the same thing viewed
under different aspects We are justified on
account of the imputed righteousness of Jesus,
which is received through faith; in sanctif'
cation we are made righteous by the opera
tions of the Holy Spirit. In justification we
arc regarded and treated as righteous, because
of the Righteousness of Christ Jesus; in sane
tifcation we are made righteous by the re-
ncwing and purifying work of the Holy
Spirit. The end of justification is the revo-
king of the sentence of condemnation and ac-
quittal of the guilty. The end of sanctifica-
ton is glorifcation in heaven. In the order
of nature, justification precedes sanctlfcation,
and in point of facts, none are sanctltcd,
except those who are justified, and all who
are justified are in time sancti6ed. In justi-
fcation we get clear title to heaven; but
not personal fitness. This is effected in our
sanctifcaton. God has instituted means,
usually called means of grace, by which he
effects the sanctifcation of his people. These
must be used, or the work will not progress

STOCK RAISING.

Cotton seems to be selfish thing. Where
it is cultivated nothing else does we'll. In the
cotton growing States, there is an aversion to
raising stock of any kind This is demon
strated by the vast numbers of horses, mules,
hogs and live cattle, as we'll as by the immense
quantities of bacon, that are annually brought
into these States A stock farm would ex-
cite as much curiosity in South Carolina as a
cotton field, in Connecticut.
The reason, no doubt, that so few of our
people engage extensively in stock raising is,
that the return of labor and capital is not so
quickly realized as it is when cotton is cult
waited. A man of scarcely any capital plants
a crop of cotton in April, and by the first of
October he is able to put part of his crop
in the market and realize the money. This
is not the case in stock raising. 1t takes con-
siderable capital to commence with, and no
less to keep it up, and no income is realized
for several years. To carry it on successfully
much care and patience are required. A
man educated in cotton growing country
has little care and less patience. If he is not
paid for his labor in seven or eight months,
he becomes impatient and disheartened, and
will leave, if it is possible, for some new
place.
Some portions of the South, possibly, are
not naturally adapted to stock raising; but
such places are few. In belt of country,
including all the upper sections of South
Carolina, large portion of North Carolina
and part of Georgia, clover and the various
grasses grow and flourish well. In York
county, it has been successfully demonstrated
that clover, as we'll as timothy and orchard
grass, do finely. The country is we'll watered,
and live stock are healthy. These things
show that there is no natural barrier to en-
gagng in stock raising as an avocation. The
only question to be settled is, "will it be as
profitable as cotton ?" For the first few years
after the enterprise is engaged in, there would
be but little, if any income. On the contra
ry, considerable capital would be necessary to
carry on the business. So soon as a good
start would be made, we see no reason why it
would not be even more remuneratve than
cotton. There would be something permanent
about it. Land would increase in intrinsic
value. Instead of being washed into gulies
and rendered worthless, it would become rich.
Another great advantage to the country at
large, would be, that less money would go out
of it and more come in. 1t would be good
thing if some of our rich farmers would en-
gage in stock raising, at least in such numbers
and to such an extent as would supp ly the
home demand. This would enable us to keep
a large amount of the money realized from
the cotton crop in the region in which the
cotton is produced.

THE DEACON,S HAT.

A rather ridiculous scene occurred in Nor
walk, Ohio, recently. The hero is prominent
and much respected deacon. The other Sun
day he started for church with an old hat on
his head. 1t was an easy hat, and the old
gentleman enjoyed it. 1t appears there are
pegs to hang hats on in the churches there.
He thus disposed of his head-gear on reaching
the church, and took his seat with the congre-
cation. When the service was over, he lin
gered, as is customary and proper for deacons
to do. He finally reached the porch, and
stopped for his hat, and any respectable citi-
zen can imagine the horror he experienced on
beholding but one hat left, and that a most
dilapidated and scandalous-look article.
lie could feel his blood boil within him as he
looked at it and thought of the mutton-head
who owned it, and had walked off with his
glossy beaver instead He said out aloud
that the owner of that hat was mutton-head,
and ground his deaconish heel into the floor,
and felt much relieved by so doing. Then he
tied handkerchief about his head, because
the old hat was much too large for him, and
he could not wear it, even if flesh and spirit
had not revolted against the spectacle He
told the sexton that that hat must have been
built in dry dock, and the only thing that
troubled him in the matter was how man
with head of that size got into the church
any way. Then he stalked majestically home
ward, with the red handkerchief wound about
his head, and the detestable hat held at arms
length ahead of him, and altogether forming
spectacle that fastened the astonished atten-
ton of every beholder.
Arriving home, he extended the obnoxious
article toward his wife, and waiting an instant
for her to take in the awful enormity of the
ofense he explosively shouted, "look at that
villainous ragw
The lady looked at it, and was astonished
81 don't wonder you are sick," he howled,
morosely; cit makes me sick to think Of the
bull-head who owns such smoke-stack palm
ing it off on me, and taking my new beaver
for himself in mistake! (He groaned this out
with whitening sarcasm.) A pretty mistake,
must say, when his miserable rag is big
enough to cover cart, and filthy enough to
make crow sick"
"But that's your everyday hat" asserted
his wife, in still greater astonishment.
"Jly hat" gasped the amazed deacon, star
ing at her with his eyes half way out of their
sockets, and then laughing Historically, and
shvering from head to foot.
Certainly it is" persisted his wife, "and
here is your best hat" taking that article
from its accustomed place, and holding it out
to him.
Without word the miserable man sank
into a chair, and after staring blankly at his
wife for a moment, slowly said:
"The ways of Providence are past finding
out. Rub my head, Matildy!

FALL FLOWING OF CORN.STUBBLE.

There are more good reasons than one, why
a corn-stubblc should be turned over before
the winter. Having been in grass the pre-
vious year, there was sod turned down
in the spring. That sod is very unevenly
mixed in the soil. If it was good heavy
clover sod, with strong roots, there will be q
large amount of vegetable matter, still left in
the soil that was unappropriated by the corn
crop. This should now be thoroughly mixed
up by fall blowing, that whatever soluble
matter remains may be absorbed with more
facility by the soil besides, the intimate mix
ture will render the soil more open and amen
able to the influences of frost, air and moist
ure. Then the refuse Of the corn crop, the
large amount of stalk and roots turned under
now, while they still contain some portion of
sap, that will cause them to rot when buried
in the moist soil, will add considerable to the
store of either oats or barley. Left standing
exposed during whole winter, corn-stubs be-
come dried up and difficult to rot, and are
found after blowing and narrowing, scattered
over the surface in all uncomfortable manner.
This may be prevented by fall plowiug, and
benefit snatched from what would be other
wise nuisance. But one more chief advan-
tage is the forwarding of the spring work, en-
abling the spring sowing to be done in good
season, that the corn-ground may be attacked
in time. 1t is not your forc-handed farmer
who gets bad crops because Of bad seasons,
late springs, and late paintings, but he who Is
always driven by his work, and has always
two things waiting to be done, and he knows
not which to do first. Such farmer is al
ways in quandary, works hardest, and has
most trouble, most anxiety, most losses, and,
alas smallest crops and least profit. .-Am

CHRISTIAN FonGIvESEss.-The following
incident was often related by one Of our mis-
sionaries in Jamaica, to illustrate the power
and practical beauty of Christianity, and the
dociity Of the African mind and character
A negro slave, not long arrived upon the is
land, and new convert, was observed to
bestow very faithful attention upon an old
man, who was afflicted by one of the lingcr-
ing leprous diseases to which the colored race
is liable. The old man had always borne
a bad character, and his influence had been
especially excrtcd against the converts to
Christianity. Both on account of his repul-
sive disease and his equally repulsive bearing
and disposition, he had no friends to care for
him in his adversity. All the more remarka-
BILE was it, therefore, to observe the asslduous
care of the young negro, who visited the SICK
man regularly several times day, bringing
him food and drink, and otherwise mlnlstered
to his wants. Thinking that there must be
some secret tie of kinship between the two,
the missionary on one occasion approached
the pair, and asked the younger man whether
the other was perhaps a relative. The answer
was no, and the aame answer was returned to
the successive questions as to whether he was
u connexion or friend. More surprised than
ever, the missionary at length asked, "Why,
then, do you take such good care of him%
The reply was, "Him's my enemyT On
further inquiry, he learned that the old man,
while in Africa had been the means of hav-
ing the younger entrapped, torn from his
home, and sold into slavery.

JUSTIFICATION.

1t is fact unquestioned by any who study
the Bible, that man is sinner. There is no
doubt that the Bible declares that we are all
sinners, ruined and condemned. Condemna-
ton has passed upon all men because all men
have sinned. In some way or other, we are
all connected with Adam, and implicated in
his first transgression. There are different
views as to the nature and intimacy Of that
connection but about the fact itself there
can be no dispute. There are too many evil
dences of it in the history of every member
of Adams numerous offspring, and the word
of God constantly proclaims it. If any one
denies that he is a sinner, he deceives himself,
and the truth is not in him. The question
which springs up in every rejecting mind i: :
"How can I be justifed?" There is no more
important inquiry than this. All depends
upon our being justified. Unless in some
way or other the sentence Of condemnation
which has passed upon us all on account Of
Adams transgression can be removed, we are
in hopeless condition. AS sure as there is
a God that rules the universe, we are doomed
to everlasting perdition. There are but two
possible ways by which our justification can
be secured. Either we must meet the claims
of Justice for ourselves, or they must be met
for us by another. The ground Of justifca-
ton is Righteousness, and the ground of con-
demnatiou is sin. All the righteous will be
justified, and all the wicked condemned. The
Justice of God demands this If we are con.
dcmncd already, it is impossible that we can
be justified on account of our Righteousness.
This would be the same as to say that we were
righteous and wicked at the same time. In
other words, it would be equivalent to saying
that we are sinners and not sinners. 1t is,
we think, evident that there is no hope of
the sentence of condemnation being revoked
by any thing that we can do. In our present
condition, not only has perfect righteous
ness to be procured for u.s. but the penal de-
mands of the law of God must be satisfied. If
we are left to depend upon ourselves for a
justifying Righteousness, our cases are hopeless.
The good news and glad tidings which the
gospel brings to us, is that Jesus Christ met
the claims of justice in our stead and for u.s.
He satisfied the law of God by obeying its
precepts and suffering its penalties. The
Righteousness of Jesus is the ground of our
justification. If we arc ever justified, it will
be on account of Him who thought it not
robbery to be equal with God, and yet for our
sakes became poor.
All that is required on our part i'll order to
be justified through the Righteousness of Jesus
Christ, is faith. We must believe in Christ,
or his Righteousness will avail us nothing.
So soon as we believe, God pronoulces the
sentence of pardon and forgiveness. Then
our sins, though they be as scarlet, become as
white as snow; and though they be red like
crimson, become as wool.
