ImmOrtalitY.

No unanswerable argument can be
made in behalf ofimmortality. Oyer
the problem all thinking minds have
in all times been busy and after all
has been said we still speak of all be.
You'd death as unseen. You have
been asked to-day to estimate rough
ly the loss society would sustain
should it dismiss all thought of a
better land, The denial of a God
would quickly follow, then would
come rapid decline ofall that is lofty
and spiritual in philosophy, then
would come decline in that right
eousness which seems more an inspi-
ration of the heart than a policy of
the judgment; hope would yane in

the vast assemblage of mortals, and
then would depart from these shores
all that happiness which comes of in
tense love of life, of self, and all those
held most dear. All these sad losses
argue in favor of the idea that man
is the child of the skies and that the
scattered deal have met or will meet
in the renewed but greatly sweetened
consciousness of life. The Unseen is
not the Unreal for the time that was
when our little earth wac not even
within the borders of an angels
dream, and time was when to the
wise men of Persia or old Greece the
Republic of America was behind i'm
penetrable wells. Beholding thus
the disposition of nature to disclose
her designs piece by piece, we seem
not only invited, but commanded
by our living and loving God to be-
lieye that behind the Unseen His
loue iscOncealing the everlasting hap
piness of His children.

The Only Way to Reform.

New ORLEANS, Sept. 9.--As an
evidence of the great disfavor in
which the Democratic ring now con-
trolling Louisiana affairs is held, the
following editorial paragraph from
the Morning Star, organ of the Irish
Catholics of New Orleans, is given /:
at is impossible to reform the
Democratic party or any other party
within itself. 1t must be reformed
by outside influences of powerful
and dangerous opposition, and it is
clear that the only chance of such an
opposition here at the South must be
found in the Republican party. What
we are coming at, then, is this. In
order to really purify the Democratic
party in the South the best Demo-
Gratis ought to do as the best Republi-
cans have done in the North. They
ought to induce the opposing party
to put up really good candidates, and
then give those candidates their own
serious support. We are not person.
ally acquainted with the make up of
the Republican party here, but if
they cannot furnish good candida ties
on the spot. they should be imported
from the North"

The LiYo Stock Interest of the
Country.

1t is not only the export of cattle
to foreign countries in such immense
numbers that has astonished the world
but the importation from Europe of
ANIMALS ofevery description for breed
ing purposes is equally marvellous.
AS remarked by stock journal, the
Importation of British and French
draught horses, Jersey, Hereford,
Scotch polled and Holstein cattle.
and of the different down sheep, the
number imported are astonishingly
large. And in view of the fact that
these importations haye been going
on for years, possibly we do not need
so many of some of these breeds but
we are glad to believe that much
greater care is taken by importers, as
a class, to secure good animals than
was once the case, With some the
word imported" has still an undue
Importance; but most purchasers, we
fancy. insist on a good animal, in adj
dition to evidence of importation.
There are many risks and much eX
pense connected with importing ami
mails. and we do not count it thing
to be complained of that the enter
prising men engage in the business
sometimes make large profits. AS a
whole, they have done much for
American agriculture. 1t would have
been a long and costly process to have
improved our common stock by selec'
ton and better care without any aid
from new breeds.
The extent of our expectations to
England has created, as is well
known, a great jealousy with the
British breeders, and in order to fur
ther their interests they have resort
ed to unfair means against US, by an
sistlng that our cattle are diseased !;
and have so far succeeded as to cause
resolution of Parliament to be
adopted against the reception of our
cattle. The government, however,
acting for the whole people, have ig-
nored the proposition. A special ca
BILE despatch from London of late
date shows that the crown ministers
have put positive denial upon the
reports which have been propagated
by interested parties. A statement
made in the dispatch is to this effect !:
"The government, in the House of
Commons this evening, gave the
landlord party's attempt to shut out
the importation of American live
cattle another serious setback. Mr..
Chaplin again Intercepted the gov
eminent, and Mr.. Dodson created
much establishment by the statements
he made in reply, He said that, so
far az the government inquiries had
gone. they showed that there was alb
solutely no ground for any legislation
that would prohibit the importation
of American live cattle; that very

Rotation of Crops.

The following is from the prize es-
say of T. 0. Tourse. written for the
Massachusetts Agricultural College
The is an old practice of following
to give the land rest and thereby en-
rich it. This, however, is going out
of practice, from the fact that it gives
so great a chance for loss by drainage.
Now general farm does not offer
the same chance for losses, for it is
very easy to adopt system so that
a crop may be kept growing all
the time; for if a crop comes of
early in the season, but not early
enough to allow another crop to rip
en-, it is very easy to SOW rye, and
either feed it off in the fall or spring,
or pillow under for green manure. 1t
has been found from repeated exper-
iment that one crop will not grow on
a piece of land for a long series OF
years and give good results. This is
probably due to the fact that large
proportion Of the particular elements
needed by that plant are exhausted,
while if these are rotated with those
Of another nature the former will
again soon grow as we'll as ever. For
a rotation of crops the following may
be a good one in many locations :
First year, corn second, roots third
oats; fourth, wheat; fifth, clover,
and sixth, clover. This is for a six
year rotation, and can, of course, be
modified to admit it to the circum-
stances and location, as, for instance,
in Canada. peas may take the place
of corn, for there a large crop OF peas
may be grown, and make very val
liable one too, while further south
this would not be possible on account
of the pea weevil. The Norfolk rota-
ton, which is theoretically perfect
rotation, is as follows: First, wheat,
second, turnips third, oats or bari ey
fourth, clover. This is, however,
hardly admissible in most locations,
for so large a proportion OF turnips
would not be fed to advantage, and
might well be modified by placing
the barley before the roots and insert
ing a wheat crop between the roots
and clover.
