al ats To directly promote the prosperity OF a
country. The competition OF to-day between
countries and states, is one of skill far more
than of natural resources.
The aggregate of the fifty young men whom
this college will annually send Fl ON It's lecture
rooms, laboratories and fields Of experiment,
will in few years constitute power in the
State, sensibly stimulating all its productive
energies. But they can use their acquired
knowledge. and. what Is more worth, their
trained habits of observation and powers of in-
telilgent study and experiment. for the benefit
OF the State only in cooperation. There must
be combined effort in order to secure the sym.
metrical development OF all the energies and
advantages at command. Capital must exert
itself TO retain these and other young men, by
opening 10 them congenial fields for the exer-
else of the various talents and capabilities
which they possess, and for which they will
seek profitable employment wherever 1t may
be found.
Ny belief that the policy of the State in found
ing this institution was a wise one and that
the public good demands its completion and
support, leads me to urge you to look with fa-
vor upon the appeal which the trustees now
make 10 you.
AGRICULTURE AND THE BEET SUGAR IN
DUsTRY.
The fashion of decrying Maine =. an agrjcul.
tural State is fast dying out.
The lively and increasing interest which is
tAuiUitcu III tuJTts 10 Improve farming lnui-
Gates that it is an interesting and profitable
pursuit. The best breeds ofcattle are sought
for. The labor saving machines, which have
done so much to tighten farm work, are every
where in use. Experiments are made and in
quiries instituted. A wholesome curiosity
welcomes new ideas. The papers and discus
sions Of the agricultural o,ieties and the soce-
ties devoted to specialiies is connected with
agriculture, the farmers cubs scattered
through the country, and the displays at the
annual fairs, all go to show that farming re-
pays attention and that our farmers are pro-
gressiye. They are taking the most effective
means 10 make their occupation a,tractiye to
others by proving, as they do ty example, that
it is remuneratiye and holds out encouraging
possibilities to intelligence and enterprise.
Agriculture and manufacturing 90 hand in
hand, mutually giving and receiving benefits,
and nowhere should the connection be closer
than in this State, which supplies SO many fa.
cilities for both.
The Secretary of the State board of Agricul.

notice Of the agricultural community that they

The Only Remedy.

Mr. Cecil was most happy in the art Of
illustration. Wishing to impress upon our
minds the Importance of ever making promi-
nent in our preaching Christ and his atone
ment, he told US an anecdote of his former
life. He had been sufferer for years, and
none of his medical friends had been able to
ascertain the cause. At length Mrs. Cecil
was told of physician, who was extremely
skilful in intricate cases, and whom she en-
treated him to consult. On entering the ply
scian's room, be said, "Welcome, Mr.. Cecil,
1 know you we'll by character-and as a
preacher. We must have some conversation
after have given you my advice" Mr.. Ce.
Gil then described his suferings. The physi-
clan considered for moment, and then said,
Dear sir, there is only one remedy in such
case as yours; do just try it, it is perfectly
simple" And then he mentioned the medi-
cine. Mr.. Cecil, fearing to occupy too much
of his time, rose to leave, but the physician
said, "No sir, we must not part 80 soon, for
have long wished for an opportunity of con-
versing with you" So they spent half an
hour more, mutually delighted with each
others society.
Goa returning home" added Mr.. Cecil,
i" said to my wife, you sent me to a most
agreeable man, such fund of anecdote, such
originality of thought, such command Of
language well, what did he prescribe for
you? Mrs. Cecil anxiously enquired.-
There was a pause, and then Mr.. Cecil ex
claimed, / have entirely forgotten the rem
edy his charms of manner and conversation
put everything else out of my mind.
"Now, young men" said Mr.. Cecil, cit
will be very pleasant for you, if your congre
CATION go away saying, What eloquence !
what original thought! and what an agree
able delivery! Take care they do not for
get the remedy, the only remedy, Christ and
His righteousness, Christ and his atonement,
