SELECTED POETRY. I
HOPE ON.
When lorruwn depress.
And blighted hopes fall,
At the leaflets of Autumn
Obey Winter'a call;
Though faded god wear/,
Let there not be a greau .
For a aw eel word of comfort
la: "Ever hope on .**
Wear/ heart a, in all age*.
Hare leant on its strength;
"Hope ever" their watchword,
Brought succor at length.
The days dark and drear/
Oft shadowed the morn.
But then catne the tweet words:
"Brer hope on!"
'fhough prospects the darkest
O'ershadow the view,
And trials and cares
All our sorrows renew,
Yet we know that by fire
Is the gold tried alone :
And, trusting (iod's word,
W'e will ever hope on.
If wo bear not a cross.
We will ne'er wear a crown;
Bo, farewell repining.
Despair is cast down.
With the Christian's soul-anchor
Ilrave the white billow's foam.
Looking upward for courage.
We will ever hope no!

AGRICULTURAL.!
Tho Sun's Heat Essential for
Corn.
Every farmer who has studied closely I
the growth of cereals has not failed to
mark the wonderful influence which hudshine
has upon their growth. The fob ,
lowing remarks upon the value of warmth
in corn culture aro frotn an essay by Mr.
llaudall :
'As coru, more than any oilier of our
cereals, requires, duiing the whole pe- >
riod of its growth, an unstinted supply
of sunshine, not only over the surface of
the field, but down in, through, and
among it, the economy of plantiug should J
always, as far as circumstances will per* ,
mit, be adapted to this requirement ; the
row in the field running as nearly en.?-t
and west as may be, that the grown and
lower portions of the stalks may have the
full benefit of the morning and cveuing
suu. During the corn-growing season
the sun during the middle of the day is
at an. altitude so nearly vertical, that its
rays find their way down through the
foliage und between tho rows very readi- '
ly. If, instead of planting their corn in
lulls, rowed l?oth ways, four feet apart,
two stalks in a hill, our farmers would
p'.ant in drills, six foot apart, running ah I
ways cast ami west, having the atalki 1
1'ioin Uu tJ twelve inches distant from
each other, they would ?o<>n find the I
benefit uf this nv?do of culture, both in 1
tho excess of crops and the early mutitri
fy of the grain. A prodigious yield of
pumpkins may be nbtavm.d front a field
thus planted ; and as the vine of the
pumpkin draws inure than eighty per ,
cent, of ita nourishment from the utntoaphcre,
they return a good deal mom than
value received to the soil, in the grateful
shade of their broad leaves during the
fierce heat of a midsummer's day.
"An old farmer, of long practical experience,
once argued to us that actual
sunshine was by no means a neccasity of
the best development of Indian corn,
proviJcd it was supplied with plenty of
common daylight. In order to test our
positions fairly, we planted twenty hills
of tho ordinary Kentucky gourd-seed
corn, on the north side of a close board
fence, ten feet high, aud running due
east and west. On the south side of
the fence we planted a like number of i
bills of the corn. As front April to
.September tho sun rose and set north of
our parallel, of course the corn on that
side got a little sunshine in spite of us I
Nevertheless, with exactly the same culture
which its neighbor over tho fence
received, it only attained two-thirds tho
height, not half the site of stalk, and
matured teo days later, yielding one
very modest ear per stalk, while the {
south side stalks gave us, in almost overy
instance, three ; ono on each stalk being
invarisbly larger than auy three wc could
find over the fence "
