Some of the farmers through this sec
ton are somewhat discouraged over the
dark prospect of realizing a full crop Of
scarlet clover this season, the same of
which has been considerably damaged
by the extremity of our frigid winter.
One of our most extensive growers of
the above product informed the writer
a few days ago that he has field in
clover, the same of which from former
prospects, expected to realize about 200
bushels of seed, but from present indi-

seed. The divine history reveals to us,
if you sow bountifully you will reap
bountifully, but in this case the present
prospects of an abundant yield of the
aforesaid product seems somewhat to
the contrary. Yet mortal man often
fails in his representations, therefore,
we sincerely hope he will make failure
in this one.

from being an eX-pedagOgue of eleven
years experience, that our young brother
Walls will, at the close of his term, re-
joice to know that he had safely anchored
upon the scholastic shores, both in the
importation of instruction to the youth
