LIT Him Up.


Lying low in the gutter,
Degraded and black with sin,
With garments tattered and filthy,
More shattered and foul within.
His face has grown ugly and brutnl
And lost is each trace divine;
The reign of his passions, had made him
Companion alone for tie swine.
''He is too far gone" they tell ua,
All they who pass him by;
'tImpossible now to reach him.
So he is left to sink and die.
He was once ''somebody's darling,"
That man 80 degraded and vile,
And the heart of some one that loved him
Was once made glad by his smile.
Thoselips that now breathe but crushing,
A mothers kiss once pressed,
Aud that hair, once soft and golden,
A sisters hand caressed.
Those eyes, now blear and sonllese,
Once lighted with loves bright glow,
And the FIRE of the soul within them,
Burned with thoughts that angels
know.
Let your tear-drops fall, of pity
Upon those darkened leaves,
Resting here-"P Possible all things"
All, "to him that believes
Friends Of temperance, this is .your
mission,
Strong in loves power to snve,
With q sympathy earnest, untiring,
Go, bring him up from the grave!

Frightened ut Night,

Children of active imaginations have hours
OF torture at night, by calling up visions and
shapes of terror, suggested by their reading.
1t is useless to scold AT them, and cruel to
laugh at them, for il is a part of their nature
which they cannot change. Sara Coleridge,
the daughter of the poet and philosopher,
passed through untold agony from this cause.
The ghost in Hamlet seemed to haunt her
chamber. Miton's picture of Death at He'll
gate rose before her in the darkness. The
horse with eyes Of flame, In Southey's ballad
OF the "Old Woman of Berkeley" was worse
than either. She said, pitilully, 80, the agon-
MES have endured between nine and twelve
at night, before mamma joined nae in bed, in
presence Of that hdeous assemblagc of hor.
rors" Her Uncle Southey laughed heartily
at her tale Of suffering. Her mother scolded
her for getting out of bed and going down
into the parlor when she could bear the fear
no longer. But her father understood the
case, and directed that a lamp should be lett
burning, and from that time all her sutferings
ceased. All parents ought to guard their
Children from such terrors.

FARM AND GARDEN.
New Agricultural Machine.

The Engiih Nechaaic says Messrs, Nc
Donne and Leuchan, of Dublin, have in
vented machine which performs the
operations of rolling, sowing, and narrowing
simultaneously. The roller is OF wrought
iron, rivited on castirOn wheels, forming Il
cylinder six feet in length by three feet in
diameter. Immediately above the roller is
q sowing apparatus, by which the seed is
Rapidly delivered, a star wheel OF four points
keeping the conductors IN constant motion.
AS the seed is strewn harrow OF four rows
of obi Iuc teeth set in a central axis turns up
the earth over the seed The harrow is kept
in motion by an endless chain or belt which
passes round the extreme end of the large
cylinder, and fits the groove of small wheel
at the corresponding end of the harrow.
Every time the large roller turns over. the
circular harrow turns nearly five times,
causing the teeth to tear up the soil about
twenty times at each of the revolutions.
Meantime the secd-conductor and distributor
rises and fails twelve times during each of
these revolutions, and there is a continuance
by which the quantity required to be sown
can be regulated. A lever is also connected
with the supporters of the harrow, and rest
upon fulcrum placed at a suitable part of
The frame OF the machine. BY means of TINS
lever the harrow portion of the machine can
be raised Oft the ground and the roller only
used; and the distributor or sower may be
worked simultaneously by means of the chain
hand, which can be closed and the flow of
seed stopped. The machine can be easily made
to suit either the purposes of sowing corn or
grass for pasuragc-
