THE PEARL OF tiREAT PRICE. This world their fancied pearl may crave, 'Tis not the pearl for me ; Twill dim its lustre in the grave, 'Twill moulder in the sea; Btthere's a heart of price untold, Which never can be bought with gold, 'The sinking soul 'twill save ; Ob, that's the pearl for me. The miser knocks at Mammon's gate, 'Tis not the gate for me; From morning dawn, till evening late, At his bolted door is he; But there's a gate that leads to bliss, And he that knocks by faith at this, Shall ne'er be called to wait; Oh, that's the gate for me. Let pleasuro chant her syren song, 'Tis not the song for me; To weeping it will turn ere long, For this is heaven's decree ; But there's a song the ransomed sing, To Jesus their exalted King, With joyful heart and tongue; Oh, that's the song for me. HE'S NONE THE WORSE FOR THAT. What though the homespun suit he wears Best suited to the sons of toil; What though on coarsest food he fares, And tends the loom or tills the soil ; What though no gold-leaf gilds the tonguer Devoted to congenial chat ? If right prevails, and not the wrong, The man is none the worse for that. What though within the humble cot No costly ornament is seen; What though the wife possesses not Her satin gowns of black and green; What though the merry household band Half-naked fly to ball and bat ? If conscience guides the heart and hand, The man is none the worse for that. True worth is not a thing of dress Of splendor, wealth, or classic lore I Would that these trappings we loved less, And clung to honest worth the more! Though pride may spurn the toiling crowd, The tattered garb, the crownless hat, Yet God and Nature cry aloud, The man is none the worse that ! "gdaltWaL From the American Agriculturist. What 1armers Ought to Know. Let us see what farmers ought to know and do, to raise themselves to the charac ter of professional men; and what almost any of them might accomplish in the long winter evenings, at a trifling cost for books, and a little more expense of hard thought and attention. A farmer ought to understand the leading principles of chemistry. The shoes when wvet, and choking with dust when dry. It is a vast laboratory, full of many and strange materials, always in action, warring, combining, changing, perpetually; to-day receiving accessions from the heavens, to-morrow, pouring them into Ite wide sea, to be again sup. plied to ether lands. The earth is all but a living creature; and he whose busi ness has been slanderously said to be but " of the earth, earthly," should surely understand the soil's nature, its elements, its likings, and its diseases. The farmer should understand physiel egy. Under his care, he has the noblest forms of creation-the ox, the horse, the sheep. Can he spend a life among them, and not know how the heart beats-how the nerves thrill-where lie the muscles what are the principles of action-and the seats of disease-how the fatgrows and how the bones are formed? Can he be a breeder, who has never studied the the peculiarities of races! Can lie be anything but an empire, who undertakes to feed and fatten cattle, without knowing of what the food is composed, and what parts of the body require this or that ele ment? The farmer should have a knowledge of medicine, and of the elements of sur gery; for though, in this respect, when applied to human ailments, it may prove that "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing," yet many a fine animal is allowed to become dog's meat, because its owner could not distinguish betwveen a fever and an inflammation, set a bone or bandage a wound. The farmer should be a botanist. The primeval curse of mother earth was, that she should bring forth thorns and thistles; and many other noxious weeds besides, have since been added to her progeny. How great the amount of toil expended and how serious the loss of crops, fromt such plants as Canada thistle, burdocks, turkey weed, and a host of others, let those tell who have been the sufferers. Many books have been written on such things; many plans have been given for eradicating them; but unless the farmer can distinguish them-unless he knows their character, histories, and modes of growth, how unaided does he go to his task ! Besides, botany, in all its shapes, is the natural science of the countryman. How does the seed germinatei How does the tender leaf unfold Itself? How is the blossom impregnated and the fruit formed!i What will injure, what improve each plant? All these are questions which every farmer should have studied and ascertained. And can any one be content to spend a life in ignorance of :the names and characters of the trees .and flowers that are so gorgeously spread 4reand him, painting his fields and woods with their thousand hues, and rendering this outward world a mass of beautyi The farmer should be-or shall we say, aieuld ish to be-a naturalist. No one has- so :many opportunities of observing and noting the habits and peculiarities of anknals, birds, and insects. In some en as this knowledge may be of inneimna ble service. It must always be a pursuit of pleasure, and cannot fail to refine and improve the mind and sen-ibiiies, l:th towards the inferior creation, and to wards man. But time would fail to tell of what the farmer ought to know and understand There is no knowledge which would not be serviceable to him. There is none which will not elevate him in the scale of intellectual beings: and, what, perhaps, is more important to many, there is scarcely a physical science which he will not find putting money into his pocket constantly. How many times in a life would a barometer save a whole harvest; how many blacksmith's and carpenter's bills may be escaped by the humble knowledge of the use of tools. Now, if our farmers would become self-instructors and, instead of doing just as their grand. fathers did before them, they would think and learn for themselves. No profession would become more honorable, carry more weight in society, nor be more ar dently sought after by the active and in telligent of all classes. Instead of our young men rushing from the country to the city, the 'city youths would yearn to be farmers; and instead of the chief em ulation being who should save most, the strife would be who should accumulate the most by the profoundest experiments, most successfully carried into practice. By these means, farming would cease to be the mere drudgery of " dirty-handed industry;" and every operation would be come scientific, based on great princi ples, breeding new thoughts and new results, and ending in valuable acquisi tions. Instead of the poet describing the farmer as one who " Wandered on unknowing what he sought, And whistles as he went, for want of thought." we should have farmers themselves dis tinguished authors of valuable works; scientific, at all events, if not poetic. Some such great minds we already have employed in farming, but unfortunately, that is not yet the character of the class. WIt na tjxtntcr. One Way to Fight a Duel. A Scotch major, who had been so skil ful with a sword, as to fight several duels with repeated success, but who, on ac count of his extreme desire for quarrel ing, when a little intoxicated, and for his boasted courage, was deserted and des pised by his brother officers, c.me one evening to a large company.-There hap pened to be present a Yankee, an officer of the same regiment which was then stationed. He related, among other things the failure of a certain expedition, in which he had the misfortune to be wounded. "That was because you were a rascally set of cowards," observed the major. "You are a d--d liar !" says the Yan kee. -The doiiilii' with as'much contempt as Goliah did up on David, and immediately askcd, "Are you a man to meet me i "Yes," replied the Yankee, "at any time, and wher-e you please, only with the proviso that we meet without seconds." "Well, then, to morrow morning, at 5 o'clock, at . "Agreed." The company present endeavored to dissuade the Yaukee, tellingr hitm the major had every advantarge where he had none, and he had better compromise matters erc he should have cause to repent his rash ness; but lhe still persisted. The next morning the Yankee repaired to the place somewhat before the appoint ed hour, armed with a large musket. Shortly after, the major- made his appear anee with a brace of pistols and sword. Before he had advanced far, the Yankee, in an austere tone, bid him stop, or he would blow his brains out. The major, struck wvith amazement at this unexpected stratagem, reluctantly obeyed, but e xpos tulated with him on the injustice of such ungentlemanlike proceedings. The Ytan kee was implicable, and determined to punish him for past conduct, and the abuse lhe had himself received. "Lay down your swvord and pistols!" says he, still presenting his musket, "and, to the right-about-face, march !" The poor major was again under the necessity of obeying, and uttering a volley of curses against his star, passively sub. mitted. The Yankee then quietly took possession of his ar-ms. "'Tis base, 'tis cowardly, thus to dis arm me of all defence !" says the major. "No," rep~lied his follow combatant, "I will deal honorably with you; there, take my musket (throwing it towards him,) and defend your life!l" He, quite incensed, seized the weapon with a mixture of exultation and recipitate vengeance, and rushing forward, demand ed his arms, or ho wvould blow him to-!"~ "Blow awvay and be d--d !" says the Yankee. Provoked at such unparalleled insolence in a fit of phrenzy lie drew the trigger. But alas! the musket had not been charged ! The glory of our braggadocia was so sullied, and his feelings so mortally wound ed by this indignity, that he sold his comn mission and left the place. Lovxso DIALOGUE.--" Wife, I am shortly to leave you. The doctor tells me that I am to live but a fewv hours at most. I shall soon be in heaven." " What! you soon be in heaveni Yout You'll never be any nearer heaven than you are now, you old brute." "Dolphus, Dolphus," hoarsely grow led the old man, " Dolphus, bring me my cane and let mue larrup the trollop once more before I die." " THAT scandalous scoundrel has ut terly ruined my character," complained Count Tracy, to Foote. " Thag.s all in your favor, replied the wvag, " for it was so very bad that the sooner it was des TITLES of FIRs--One of the best titles for a mercantile firm we have seen is "CALL & SETLE" which is painted in golden letters on a sign in one of our Northern cities. Customers are reminded every time they pass of their outstanding accounts.. "NEAL & PR AY" is tho name of another firm. But the following" beats all." "Two Attorneys," says an old newspaperin " partnership, is in a town of the United States, had the name of a firm which was "KETCHAM & CHEATH ux," inscribed in the usual manner upon their office door-but as the singularity and ominous juxta-position of the words led to many a coarse joke from the pas sers-by, the men of law attempted to des. troy, in part, the effect of the old asso ciation, by the insertion of the initials of their Christian names, which happened to be Isaiah and Uriab, but this made the the affair ten times worse for the incrip tion them ran: "I KETCHAM & U. CHEATHAJ. !" POLITENESS RECIPROCATED.-A crim inal was in the county jail awaiting his trial for murder, with a reasonable pros. pect of conviction. The candidate for sherifality called one day to see him, when the prisoner, wishing to compliment his visitor, said to him; " If I should be condemned to be hanged, I know of no one by whom I would rather be hung than by you." The visitor, with one of his blandest smiles replied;:-"And should I be elected sheriff, I know of no one I would rather hang than you." SHORT AND SwEET.--Divers plans of courtship are laid down in books, and none takes our fancy like the following adopted by a couple recently: " Miss Adela, will you marry me '- Well, Thomas, I 'spose [ must." "I'll be much obliged toyou if you will." Then he kissed her, and the business was settled right off. TIHE Cool. courage was remarkable of that chap who when forced into a fight, exclaimed as the bystanders rushed in between him and his antagonist, two of you must take hold of him, but one can hold me!" "DoEs not the bell tolling," observed his companion to Col. -, on hearing a funeral knell "put you in mind of your latter end?" " No, but the rope puts me in mind of yours."
