Nc.IImY Ihn nih E,Lrn,-

There is q constant buying and selling
Of farms going on from year to year in
orr country. This restlessness on the
part of the farmer, and this desire to
change a present location for another one
hundreds Of miles off, is SO frequently
witnessed in oar day that we cease to
wonicr AT 1t. In the time of our fole-
fathers, when-a MAJ wa settled on a
farm, he commonly continued on if
through life, and then left it for his
son. In times gone by, the same farm
WAS first occupied by the grandfather,
and soon Ivy the son and grandson.
Incn the good old homestead was rev.
crenced, and tho occupancy of it was
esteemed a great privilege, There wa. a
satisfaction felt by the successor that hi.
predecessor was his relative, cultivated
the same fields, wandered by the same
brooks, trlyerscd the same hills, and ate
OF the fruit of the same orchard. Then
there was 4 home feeling, home associ
atlons, and home attachments. Now the
farmer looks more to his peCuniarv gains
and when offered a large price for hi,
land, hesitates not to sell, He quits hi.
beautiful home, his well cultivated acres
emigrates to the far west, and com
mences a liteof hardship that he never
dreamed Of. 1t can safely be said that
where one man succeeds in this under
taking many fail, If he could only sci
his new farm, how gladly would he bur
ny back to the old home, now occupieC
by strangers, and the inclosure contain
ing the graves Of his kindred going I,
ruin With the advent of spring man,
will dispose Of their farms and remoyr
TO a iar-oH country, to undergo the pri
walton aud troubles incident upon estab
fishing a home in a new country. Gu
advice Is 80 remain where you are.
you are comfortably of, remain 50. d.
not exchange a certainty, unless power
fol reasons are brought to bear upon you
10 seek a new settlement in a distant re
glou. Stick to the old farm, for it ha
never failed 10 and you in the time o
recd.-- NcH EBgiqad H7moteod.

The Amazon Trade.

The late commodore Marry she'd much
light upon the trade capacity of the re-
gion of the Amazon in Brazil, which he
looked upon as destined TO be one OF the
most lucrative in commerce. The Phil
adelphia Ledger calls attention to the
same subject, and says that when once
the energy of tie American and British
merchant is intcll'geudy devoted to
opening this vast and productive region,
its trade VIII rical that of the East In
dies. The chief tributaries of the Anna.
zon are the Madeira aud Negro rivers,
the former flowing in from the south and
the latter from the north, The Conilu.
ence o; the Negro IS in the heart OF
Brazil, and near its mouth is the town OF
Manaos, which has hitherto been a chieI
stopping place Of the lincs Of steamers OF
sail vessels from the upper portions Of
the livers and trans,hipped at its
wharves to other steamers trading &c
