From the Portland Advertiser. THE LIFE OF TgB HUSBANDMAN! *1 am a true laborer, I earnt what I eat, get that I wear, owe no man hate, envy no man's happiness : glad of other men's geod, con&nt with my farm, and the greatest ?1! n?y pride is to sec my ewes graze and iny i lambs suck."?Shakspeare. W? have come to the conclusion, that! nature's truest nobleman i9 the mt*o a ho earns his bread by the sweat of h:s face, upon his own bought and paiJ for plantation. An independent Farmer may stand uoon J his housetop and say to himself, as Selkirk ; did? | " I am monarch of all I survey. My right there is none to dispute; From tho centre all round to the sea, I am Lord of the fowl and bruto. V 7T V Hp is truly a monarch?with, a landed tidu more secure than that of feudal Lord or Baron?more easily protected and preserved, not by deeds of valor, through the shedding of blood, but by lite lawful labor of the hands. Firs house is his castle, his acres are h:s dominions. His gardens are his parks, bis grass pints his lawns, and his forests, his graves. His catde, sheep, and poultry ar't his subjects, and he becomes ar pleasure, either the executioner or the multiplier of such subjects. Tell us if the king upon the throne has more worth possessing. Hi9 happiness we know is less,, as ho increases his toils, cares and sorrows in proportion 06 the cultivator of the soil diminshes his. ? Fn the sprii^ time lie sows, and in the autumn ho reaps. Providence has assured him that spring tune and harvest shall not fail, and He has t!u> assurance of the Giver ofevery good and p"rfect gifr, that as he sows, shall he ro;*p. His gmunds ore watered is : he season- of drought, with ^the rains and dews of heaven, and in the damp eaeon tfiesun shines 'to cheer, invigorate, and give promise to his labor?. 'the severer ' tasks pf the summer nre succeeded by the lighter laborsof the winter. As we have aid in the words of Will. -Shakspe?re, he ? - n "euros that fie ea's, and gets that he wears,", and his pbi Jlosnphv i?, that of the shcperd who said that "good pas:ures - make fat heop." He may say truly, and w?tb an lamest pride? '* m *.'< *. "I oat .my own Lamb, . 'My chickens and bars, J x . 3-ahear my own ttcec? and wsar it. Wlmt conld S man want more, and hove can ' farmer, capable ofenjoviug life pos^f?ed of his farm houses his farm, and.his necessary implements of husbandry, ever sigh for a residence within the enclosure .ot a city?choosing bricks and mortar, for the elbow room of a spacious farm house, tho moke and dust of the town for the village, the three or four story brick house, for the granary or tha haycock?the purest air of heaven, for thd atmosphero of a thousand smoky houses, and ten thousand unwholesome breaths f How could a farmer moke such a choice as this ? We would pause fi?r a reply, did we not know that the only answer which could be devised, after a lung tody would bo the unsatisfactory one, that something better was anticipated only?for it would be a miracle almost, for a man to ! 1 1 ? ?' ? k?*iAi? iii?Aumcl(vn. i una mmscu itu^pici,?/i ur woim wivutiwmn- I ces after a change of resilience from Uis ! country to tha city.

P.*Rfi1VE*R>S OF INJURIES. I It is well known that the Koran of Mai hornet contains many passages copied front I the sacred writings. Among others, the ! Arabian, prophet bus given a place to'those I prpcepts ot our adorable Redeemer which ; recommend forgiveness of injuries, and i overcoming evil with good. One day the | Culiph Hassan, son of Hali,being at.dioner, | ti slave unfortunately let fall a dish of meal reeking hoi, which scalded him severely, j The sjjive fell on his knees, exclaiming, in t the language of the Koran, "Paradise is for j those who restrain their anger." *1 am noi angry wiih thee." replied the Caliph. "And i lor those who forgive offences against their," j continued the slavo. "1 forgive rhee thine," i responded ;h* Culiph. 4?Rut, above aH, or j those who return goo I for evil," added j the slave. "I set thee at liberty," rejoined i the Caliph, "and I give the ton dinars."? !
