3UILDING ON THE BAND. BY ELIZA COOK. 'Tis well to woo, 'tie well to wed, For so the world has done Since myrtles grew, and roses blew, And morning brought the san. But have a care, ye young and fir Be sure ye pledge with truth, Be certain that your love will wear Beyond the days of youth. For, if ye give not heart for heart, As well as hand for hand, You'll find you've played the unwiso part And " built uponthe sand." 'Tis well to save, 'tis well to have A goodly store of gold, And hold enough of the shining stuff, For charity is cold. But pTaee not all your hopes and trust In what the deep mine brings; We cannot live on yellow dust Unmixed with purer things. And he who piles up wealth alone, Will often have to stand Beside his coffer chest, and own 'Tis " built upon the sand." 'Tis good to speak in kindly guise, And soothe where'er we can;. Fair speech should bind the human mind And love link man to man. But stay not at the gentle words, Let deerls with langnage dwell, The one who pities starving birds, Should scatter crumbs as well. The mercy that is warm and true Mast lend a helping. hand, Por those who talk, yet fail to do, But " build upon the sand." a -- "I HAVE COE TO TALK A3@UT NY SOUL" One day, as we were were just rising from the dinner-table, a young man knocked at the door. He had lived but a few months in the town, and my acquaintance with him was very slight indeed. I believe we had never spoken together but once, when I was making a pastoral visit to the family in which he boarded. The thing that most struck me then was his extreme diffidence. I was not aware that any particular im pression had been made on his mind.. Hence, it did not occur to me that his call, especi ally at such an hour, was connected with the state of his feelings on the subject of religion. Judge then of mny surprise, as lie took his seat by the fire in the midst of my family, and looking up said, " I have come to talk with you about my soul !' The words thrill edlthi-ough my t'f. Such a renirk, from a modest retiring youth who- had never en thred our door before, could-not but awaken tender emotion-. Foi- a few moments I hard. lyv knew what to say. Soon, however, I found utteran:ce, and in a few simple senteni ces gave him such direction as seemed suited to his circumstances. It was a wvord in season. God had evidently been moving upon the mind of the diffident young man, and he was in a short time led to the knowl edge of the truth as it is in Jesus. Years have since passed away, but no one has had reason to doubt that this was a genuine con version. -Is-.there no- -reader of these-lines -who might be beneffted by such an interview with ris~ pastori You can imagine what it cost a retiring timid youth to bring his mind to make a visit like this. But had he not done so, it might have proved a fatal resistance of the Holy GThost. The direction is, " Seek the Lord while ho may be found ; call upon him. while he is near." And ministers are appointed to- guido souls to the Saviour. The young man that takes such a step, is using means which God may bl'es to his spiritual amd eternal good. PAiSTR. -4 E CHISTIAN AT HOME. IHe wvho is indeed a Christian will endeav or to render himself agreeable at home,-in the family circle-and wvill there be more beloved and esteemed usually thant anywhere else. It is pure religion which perfects the happiness of the family. The unfair, un liindi treatment of the world may sometimes east a cloud, upon the browv of even the ser vants of God when engaged in the stern duties of life, but wvhen he returns to his own home, to the bosom of his family, he smiles, talks pleasantly, is cheerful, sings if he can, and thus happy himself, he renders all happy. The mother, too, may be bur dened with cares and toils, but if christiani ty is deeply implanted in her heart and also enlightens her head, she will wear a smile at home and speak out language of love which will endear her to the famtily circle and contribute to make home as happy as it should be. Religion was given for home use as much as any other, and it is important that we avait ourselves of its advantages there es pecially. I have noticed some who always seemed to have plenty of religion to make thenm kind, smiling and happy wvhen away from home, engaged in domestic cares and duties they had apparently no grace at all. They were abrupt, impatient, sour, scolding, cross and unlovely. No- sweet smile would light up their countenance all the day. 0 how sad for the happiness of home, that so many waste all their smiles and kind cheer ful words awvay from home and have noone for the family circle where they are especial ly needed. Be a Christian at home if no where else. A SIsTER' s ALUE.-H-ave you a sister? Then love and cherish her with all that pure and holy friendship, which renders a brother so worthy and noble. Learn to appreciate her sweet influence, as portrayed in the fol lowing words: lHe who has nceie known a sister's kind ministration, nor fet his heart warmiing be neath her enduring smile ,nd hove-beaming eye, has been nnmfortunate indeed. It is not to be wvondered at., if the fountain of pure feeling flow in his bosom but sluggishly, or if the gentle emotions of his nature be lost in the sterner attributes of mankind. " That man has grown up among affec tionate sisters," I once heard a lady of much observation and experience remark. " And wvhy (1o you think so," said I "Because of the rich development of all the tender feelings of the heart." A sister's influence is felt in manhood's riper years ; and the heart of him who has grown oldi in chilly contact with the world will warm and thrill with pure enjoyment as some accident awakens within him the soft tones, the glad melodies of his sister'savoice; and he will turn from purposes which a warppedl and false philosophy had reasoned into expediency, and even weep for the gen tle infence which- moved him in earlier years. .g- your heart to your Creator, and . your alms to thie .i00. ALONE, rT NoT ALOE.-How marty onflicts and burdens, with all our instinc ive yearning for aid, must we encounter ,done. The friend who was nearest to you aints, falls, is gone; and you are alone. rhe expected support of your age, the pride )f your paternal heart leaves you, and you re alone; your day declines, the shadows engthening and darkening around you, and you are alone. The guide of your youth, perhaps, just as you begin to feel how much you need his counsels and his aid, is gone ind you are alone-alone amid the growing Fascinations and thickening dangers of life. h, to have a better friend, a friend who will never leave you nor forsake you. Oh the comfort of resting on God in bereave. ment, and conversing with him as Friend and Father-as all in all to you for ever. How is the loneliness of bereavement bright. ened when you can say, "And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me." DEATH OF THE RowroUs.-I met on the sea shore, says the eastern poet Sadi, a pious man, who had been attacked by a tiger, and was horribly mutilated. He was dying and suffering dreadful agonies. Nevertheless his features were calm and se rene, and his physical pain seemed to be vanquished by the purity of his soul. " Great God !" said he, " I thank thee that I am only suffering from the fangs of this tiger, and not from remorse." How ,lect the farmer's imple life, How pure the joy it yields! Far from the world'a tempestuous strife, Free 'mid the scented field.-EvaEr.-r. TREATMT OF HORSES WEN R TED. Men and horses remarks the New Eng. land Farmer, are the only animals that sweat. So say the medical men, whose business it is to investigate the wonderful living mechanism of both. The ox cools off by accelerated respiration ; if heated in the furrow, he partially opens his mouth, drops his tongue, and by rapid respiration, or breathing, throws of the excess of heat which has accumulated in the system. The dog which runs at the side of the carriage through the immense heat of a July sun, dashes into the cold spring with impunity, and returns refreshed, having no perspiration to check, " when men or horses, submerged in a similar manner, would suddenly check perspiration and if they survived the shoek, it would be but to die with acute or chronic inflammation." In violent motion, the pers piration of both men and hors;es is increased, I)ut not sufficiently so aR to carry off the heat that is generated ; they perdpire throngh the skin the pores of whish keome opened r enlarged, and it is while in this condition that both are exceedingly litbhle to be injair dand- whei great care is necessary to preserve the health of either. We saw a noble looking animal the other ay, standing by the road side, wet with >erspiration, dotted with foam and appa ently htighly heated. There he stood, un becked by rein or halter, raithfully waiting s master's return. The cold was intense ; he mercury being below zero! impatiently e pawved the ice under his feet, champed the bit, and wildly flung his head from side o side, while his lips were contracted and ostrils collapsed, givitng hinm a fierce and unatural appearance. No blanket coveredl his wet and heated body, while the keeni morning air froze stiff the moist long hairs hatodutf i ki-ite wa'ev ently suffering severely. And this is tie ucommon sight. So little is known of the physiology atnd functions of the horse, that the man who would refuse an extravagant price for a favorite animal suffers him to stand in the eondition we have described. If the horse escaped an attack of colic or violent infkammation in some shape, it was his good. fortune, and not from anty wisdom r humanity on the part of his owner. Even in mild weather, though it may be ummer, men or horses should not remain ~uiet in' a cold. draft, when heated and wet with perspliration. Millions of the colds omplained of would be prevented, by oh aerving this simple rule, anud thousands of valuable lives preserved which are now an ually extinguished. But you, whto value the noble animal vhich you control, when you " re.itn up" for musiess or pleasure, let the mantle come wer your steed in the shape of a blanket. Depend upon it, you will find it cheaper :han physic, travelling on foot or drawing your carts yourself. WATER MELON IBUTTER.-A correspon kent of the Prarie Farmer, presents the fol lowing method of usitng water melons: " I endeavor every year to raise a good vatermelon patch. TIhey are a healthy md delightful fruit, I think. 1 cultivate the ice rind variety ; plant early in May, and again towards the close of the month, so that they may come in succession. When they commnetice ripening we comnmnce eat ing, and use theta freely during the hot weather. When the weather becomes cool in September, we haul a quantity of them to the house, split them open with a spoon, scrape out the pulps into a cullender, and strain the wvater into vessels. We boil it itn n irotn vessel down to syrup, then put in apples or peaches, like makitig apple butter, nd boil slowly, until the fruit is well cook ~, then spice to taste, and you have sonme thing that most of people wvill prefer to ap ple butter, or any kind of preserves. Or the syr-up may be boiled without ftruit dowtn to molasses, which will be found~ to be as ne as the best sugar house tnolasses. We have madle of a fall as niuch as ten gallons of the apple butter, if I nmay so call it, and molasses, which has kept until may in a fine ondition." GOOD SExsE.-armiers ought to husband their land as well as theit- timeo, and if any thing the first is mnore importatnt than the last. We ol' the South have been too pro digal in thtis respect, and the conseqiuence is, that yearly acre upon acre is worn out and thrown aside, until we begin to see thtrough ur wood lands and find them running short. rho only suggestion we can make is, to lover half your cleared land and manure nd work atnd live off the other till the leared lands are brought back to a fitness ror culture again. If we do not begin pret ysoon to renovate our old dry fields, we will have little else hut dry fields to raise ur cotton and grain upon. We want a rood deal more of the Northern systemi of orking lands itnfused among our farming ~ommunities.-Knoxville Plebian. To MAKE PREsERvEs KEEP.-The so ret of preserving them from change is to axclude the air. The easiest wvay to do this s, to brush over mu sheet of paper with the hite of an egg, and over the jar, pressing tdown around the edges while moist, and ; will cement perfectly tight. It is cheaper, seater- and better than seuling up the mouth if thoar with wax or covering .it . with a. ladder CULTIVATION OF EADDER. The cultivation of madder is now engag ing the attention of agriculturalists and scientific men. It has been abundantly manifested, that the article can be grown in the country profitably, and by devoting at. tention to it, three-fold good will be accom plished. A new crop will be added to those a now raised, the pries of the article will be cheapened to manufacturers, and we shall im no longer be obliged to depend upon foreign _ production for a supply. In Newcastle, Delaware, a farmer has 170 acres in mad der; and a gentleman in Herkimer county has for several years supported himself on ts the product of an acre of land planted with this article. A variety of crops is desirable on the part of the farmer, as thereby the capacity of his farm is more fully exercised, the crops made better by alternating, and the neces sity of reliance upon a single cereal or root crop obviated. The cultivation of willow, C madder, &c., will engage the attention of e farmers more than they now do, and we shall drive out the exported article from the home markets.-Rochester Democrat. FACrS FOR FARwER It is an error to plant seeds from a State further South. In a cold season only the seed from a colder climate will ripen well. Never keep your cattle short; few far mers can afford it. If you starve them they will starve you. It will not do to hoe a great field for a crop, or to mow twenty acres for five loads of hy. Enrich the land and it will pay you for it. Better farm thirty acres well, than fifty acres by halves. In dry weather dig for water on the brow of a hill, springs are more frequently near the surface on a height than in a valey. The foot of the owner is the best manure for the land. Cut bushes that you wish to destroy, in the summer, and with a sharp instrument, they will bleed freely and (lie. Accouuts should be kept, detailing the expenses and product of each field. When an implement is no longer wanted for the season, lay it carefully aside, but first let it be well cleaned. Obtain good seed, prepare your ground well, sow early, and pay very little atten tion to the moon. Cultivate your own heart aright; remem ber that whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Do not begin farming by building an ex tensive honse, nor a spacious barn, till you have something to store in it. Keep notes of remnarkabls. events on Vour farm. SAvNc Ma-rn.-The Michigan Far. minver gives the practice of a Scotch farmer, in the saving and management of manure, which we cannot but regard as economical of its fertilizing qualities, and worthy of general adoption except in the depth of SWinter when it may be delayed. Te pre. vent dissipation by evaporation and wash. ingr he draws it awvay as fast as it is thrown from the stable, piles it up in some conve- I nient place on the farm, first placing a layer of the fresh manure, to a depth of eight or ten inches, then a layer of common soil I about four inchtes thick, which press~es the course down to about the same thickness, then another layer of manure, which in like mannier is followed by another layer of earth, and so on till the pile is completed,. In this way, the volatile portions are pre served, and he asserts the manure is of double vaue to what it would have en lying ini the yard .r " TinER is one class of men, says Dr, John Todd," oni wvhich we can rely-I mean the farmers, They were never known to trample on law and right. Were I to com mit my character to any class of men, my family andl my country's safety it would be I to farmers. They are a class of men such I as the world never saw for honesty, intelli gece and Roman virtue, sweetened by the Gospel of God. And wvhen this nation. quakes, they and their sons are those whoI will stand by the sheet anchor of our liber ties and hol'd the ship at her moorings tif she outrides the storm." A LUAaLE RECEIP.-Tlake plaster andr soak it in a saturated solution of alumn, 1 theni bake the two in an oven the same as gypusum is baked to muake it plaster of Paris after which they are ground to powvder. It is then used as wanted, being mixed up with water like plaster and applied. It sets into a very hard composition, capable of1 taking a very high polish. It may be mixed with various coloring minerals to produce a cement of any color capable of imitating < marbe. 0 ANDID ATE S, For the State ZLegislature. JOHN CIIEATHIAM, JAMES CAMERON, 7.. W..
