day, by eircumstantial evidence. Thus, that SACRIFICE was instituted in the Patriarchal Age is to be inferred from the fact that Cain and Abeél made their grand debut at thealtar. Now,had not the historifn infended to acquaint ‘the world with the death of Abel, in. ‘all probability there would not have’ been. a single intimation on record, either of the institution, or the prac: tice of sacrifice. As there was no phiblic ‘event accompanying the institution of sacrifice, there is o merition of it; but as there wus a public. event “comnected with the practice of it, we. have an incidental notice of it.” . - PeETER—That seems. plausible, to. say the least. { Proceed. ! - Jacor~That there was hlso a reli“gious regards paid to thé SEVENTH DAy, because the Lord set it apart as _a commemoration of the actomplishment of the creation, js to be inferred from the original sanctification of the “day, from the calculation of ‘time*by weeks, as is found in'the history of “the Deluge, and from the manner -in which the observance.of it is enjoined upon the children of Israel-—*Remem-ber the-Sabbath day,” &c. This is the ‘lztlagllz}f,je (v)fi;p:tllingg up an antient in- _ stitution, .imd( nqt- of introducing ‘a new one. ) i i

Perer—To this' might: be - iflided that in the days of Enos men began to assume title, calling. theinselves “sons of God.” While the posterity of Seth. kept themselyes separate from the descendants of Cain, there was a religiu_us remnant upon carth; but"sd soon as the “sons of God} (et'the ‘children- of Seth) intermarried: wilh “the daughters of men” (or thedes cendants of ‘Cain and the other progeny of Adam) an almost universal defection: ‘was the consequence, until. Noah was left the sole proclaimer of righteousness in the world. Giants. in crime ‘and stature, of vigorous constitution 'al'n{ lo:ﬁ;g life, glu'enchgd’ahnnst every spark-of . piety, and violated ‘every moral restraint necessary to the existence -of society. Thus, a provision neccessary for the }nult'if)licu.tiun and tempo_ra] prosperity of the human race; to wit: great animal vigor and Jong life; demonstrated its incompatibility with the. religious and moral interests of society. * A change of the system . became expedient, and the world was drowned . with the exception of four pairs: of human beings. The {irst act of the great drama closes with the Deluge. - 5o '

. JAcoB—TI-am profoundly interested in this narrative, and crave for more. - PeETER—Four pairs, instead of one, began to replenish the New World. After the Deluge,'some gracious intimations, some ,benevolent ,pigomises,‘ are given. | As a safegugrd ftguinsh a similar detérioration,animal vigor is diminished and the life of man curtailed or shortened. This is, however, gradual ‘at first, until the inhabitants of the earth are considerably. increased. The earth is not again to De submerged; this tremfendous deluge shall never bé repeated; while time endpres tlhiere ‘shall be day and night, summer and “winter, seed .time and -harvest. An institution _called . the “Institution 'of Day and Night” is solemnly ratified; and a rainbiow of peace embraces the immersed globe—symbols ,of" high ‘and glorious significance, -as-* after times ,develope. N Ll e

Jacop—Let me add a few words. to ‘this narrative: Shem is distinguished as the-father of -blessings to a future world. Japheth, confined to narrower lmmits, hds the promise of enlargement and of -ultimate introduction to the family altar of Shem; while Canaan, the son of Ilam, foi introducing the vices of the Old World, is devoted to ‘a’long and grieyous vassalage. . Shem has’ Asia for liis patrimony, and the God of the whole earth for his family God. - So begins the second act of the great drama of huinan existence. . . PETER—I"am glad you have mentioned this addendum. It reminds me .that " sundry. minor regulz‘ltti_onsr distinguish this new’ chapter of the Patriarchal "Age’ A severe statute -against murderer; and a prohibition against the eating of blood, are of.conspicuous ‘motoriety. Animal food is conceded to man, but hlood in which is Animal life, is forbidden. Abstinence of blood was énjoined upon the descendants of Noah. In the days of Puleg, the earth. was divided among the sons of Noah. About this-time, in order to prevent their: dispersion, to consolidate their union, and té gain renown, an effort was made to build a city, and a tower which should reach up- to heaven. "Tlis 'is an evidence that wickedness had again become ‘widespread among the people. And what, a wonderful miethod God adopted to “check the proficiency of men in wickedness! Having but one language, they were enabled to co-operate in erime; but by a divine ad Imme.diate interpositiop; human ‘language was confounded—thus not,only frustrating their designs, but *compelling them to fcrm themselves into smaller associations and disperse all over the earth. | ‘ e Jacoß—A few words on the religious character of the ancient n ations, "and then I thinkwe had better come ‘down. to the Jewish age. My Bible reading informs me that Abraham ‘was the son of Shem by Arphaxael. The Persians were the descendants of Shem by Elam. The eommon parent--age of Abraham and the Persians laid a foundation for some siinilarity, in their religion. Abraham’s ancestors dwelt in Chaldea, and and at the time that God signalized Abralam, -the Chaldeans had begun to apostatize from tlre service of the true God.— Hence the expulsion.from among them. The Arabians, down to the time of Jethro, retained the knowledge of the true God. How long after, we are not'informed; but their religious institutions, as far.as we have-account, differed littlé from those practiced by Abraham, with the exception of circumeision. The .. Canaanités themselves, in’ Abraham’s time, had, not apostatized wholly from the religion of Shem. The King of Salem was priest of the Most High God; and during Abraham’s sojourning among them, they treated him with all re-

spect as a prophet of the true God.— Even among the Philistines at Gerar, . Abraliam found a good and virtuous . _King, favored with the admonitions -of the Almighty. The Egyptians, too, in the time of Abraham, were worshipers of the true God.; All the religious rites and usages of the Pagan - nations down to the time of Homer, and still later, were very similar to " the patriarchal institutions. They offered expiatory sacrifices,” .depreca- ~ tions, yows, and ablutions ; had altars, ~ priests, and sacred groves; and made -the same distinctions between clean - and unclean victims. " - | | - .. PETER—AS we now have the way e ged for a consideration of the Jew~ish age, and it is already quite Jate, I ~ wonld suggest shat we ' now refire, ~ with the understanding that at our . Dext interview the peculiarieties of . the Jewish people, lzge ‘giving of the %s., be'made the £:special theme

The Farm and Household. ~~LV\EV‘-~,\.\.‘A,V\,JNW‘;“M~.,-N\,»..\, s Taking Care of Crops. 5 . (From the Indianapolis Sentinel.) = .’ ~Now~that the storms are over and the desolation .of wealth which a short time ago seemed to be secure lies suggestive on all sides, the thougtful farmer may learn a useful lesson. A painful demonstration.is presented to many that care in saving is. quite as important as labor and industry in producing. There are doubtless many instahces where no exertion, nor skillful management couid have -averted .the consequences of bad weather.— But it will' by and by .come 4o be. the leading idea of the agriculturist to solve the problem of overcoming adwverse . contingeneies of the seasons.—. «The--trye farmer will- inguire earnestly how he may counteract the evil effects of drought in a dry season, and ‘also raise¢ a good crop in spite of excessive rains.- No trifling . progress has been made in this difection al‘ready, and much greater achfevements remain to be accomplished.’ ‘The task of inan set before him is the c¢onquest of all hostile elements, the ytilization wof - his: natural® enemies, and ‘the ‘mastery of nature’s forces. Thesingle ‘deyice of tile drainage has made a long step towards vietory over drought “and excessive moistuge-in the soili— Strangely: enough it is apotent remedy for both. : A preper preparation of soil,. the creation of- a vigorous ‘plant ‘growth is w general, insurance against « dozen ills to erops, including Jtardy maturity, frosts, and especially insect ravages. About .the best protection to insect foes. is a thriftness of graavth which .they can'not grapple -with. - Debility in the plant, as in the animal system, is an invitation to every disorder and every foe. But the particular topic which it is the special order: to consider now is the care of the crop at harvest time. | In-Cali-fornia .where -no rain can be “apprehended in the summer. (though this year was an e¢xception) the wheat is ieut, threshed, put into sacks, and the sacks are piled up where they lie unl tder dry 'skies for weeks in perfect | safety. lere the farmer must-do differently. Yet long established - usage seemed to have stereotyped the notion that when wheat is vut up in the I'shock it may then be left to take care { of itself until it suits the convenience | of the tardy farmer to put it in stack,. or thresh itin the field.: It is true that the custom of immediate threshing and saving has made greaft procgress in late years. But there are 5,000, farmers in Jlndiana to-day lamenting “their folly in ‘- neglecting wheat . shocks which. adorned the grand rolling tides which lately ship;ped the unthreshed grain to- New Orleans. - It was stated by one paper. in Tippecanoe county that Barnum’s | show -cost the :county $400,000. On that day, which' was -fair, the wheat might and should+have:been saved, but the entire farming population preferred to take the echances of the weather for their bread, and go to the show, leaving it exposed.. The result was that the golden opportunity was lost;and they paid for their day’s fun with their year’s 'work. There isn’t much good sense in taking such risks, which it is easy enough now to see.— The haymaker -in Vermont, where sweet timothy and clover saved in good order are worth almost as much as tea; provides canvas-hay caps to cover all the hay cocks and keep off "both dew and rain. llere -wheat is not always well shocked and staeked, i to say nothing of effective shelter for Jit. Any amount of wlheat has been ruined b?' poor stacking, which a little extra cate would have obviated, and the work'would have.been a good investment., Mr. Orth, writing from Austria, says that “Americans are far ahead: of that people in farm implements, and ahead of them in slovenly farming too. . - g .

FALL SOWING OF 'ONIONS. — The American Agriculturist for “August says: . “Last year we published anarticle by Peter Henderson in which he gave- the experience of a Long Island, market -gardener who sowed his onions in autumn.” We gave the. plan ‘a trial, in our own garden last fall, but the sowing. was not made until the very end of September, and ‘ the young plants did not all make | suflicient growth-to stand' the very severe winter, éven though they were ‘ wellcovered,, Still the success, though | only partial, was suflicient.to show that this method is worthy of consid-, eration, and from the number that came to maturity in our bed this sum- ‘ mer, "we have ne: doubt that it will answer ‘wherever sets, are used; but where ~onions can be raised directly from the seed there will'be no advantage from fall sowing, except for such as are to be marketed green .or very early. The ‘idea is to sow the seed in the fall at such a time as will ,allow the plants to form a bulb large enough to stand the winter, and yet. not so large as toruniup to flower.the next season; in fact, to raise onion sets, . which instead of being harvested, are: to be left in the greund, where they will be ready to grow as soon as spring opens. On Long Island, the middle of september is found to be the best time to sow;. further south it should be later, and north of that earlier. Success will- largely depend upon the time of sowing, and this for any particular locality can only be ascertained by experiment. " The covering should not be put on until cold weather has stopped the growth ot the bulbs, and may be of leaves, straw, ~marsh hay, or other ditter. Leaves applied while it is snowing will not blow about.” -

CAPABILITIES OF AN ACRE.—J. M. Smith, a market-gardener of Green Bay, furnishes the Horticulturist some interesting statements of his experiments in high eulture. e has found ‘the rule ihvariable, not a single ex‘ception to it, that the more he has spent in -cultivating and manuring the greater have been ‘the net profits -per acre: Last séason he cultivated fourteen acres, and began with a more thorough and -expensive cultivatien than ever hefore.. - .The result was -that, although there was a “terrific drouth”—one of the dryest seasons .ever known' in that "region—after spending -$3,986, or $384 per acre, he had a better balance than at any preivious year. He appears to regard constant cultivatior? and especially through a drought, in connection with copious mantring, as all-import-ant. Stable manure is the standard; with'such use of super phosphates, plaster,” lime, ashes, and other manures, as experience and good sense point out. “After you have learned how to ‘spend money to the best advantage,” he remarks, “a larger profit may be madé by laying out $3OO per acre than with less. After the second year, if your land does.not pay all its expenses, taxes, and ten per cent. on $l,OOO per acre, there is something wrong somewhere. -1 have some land that’ did not-pay expenses for .two years; -but for a number of years past have not ‘failed to pay ten per cent. on at least $2,000 per acre. I expect my whole garden to do more than that in a short time. .. He adds that he is now aiming at 1,000 bushels of onions per acre, then a crop of carrots or turnips; or 500 bushels of early potatoes; or, if strawberries, 12,800 gusrte sel T S

. VALUE OF BARLEY.—Fears are often expressed that barley.may not be a paying- crop this. year, because’ the price was high last séason. This may be so if the crop, is grown solely for sale to the'brewers, who require a fine sample, good color, etc,, and the demand is, to a great extent, capricious. But why depend on the market altogether?. Barley can be turned into pork as well as corn, It is exeellent feed for horses and poultry, and barley meal will make beef, Why mot

feed the crop if it cannot be profitably sold, or at least a part of it? With two strings to the bow, the breaking of one may be risked, and so we would not hesitate to grow barley, although the brewers may not want it. Asit requires good farming to grow this crop, and clean culture, it is not likely that the market can long be depressed below a paying point. As a feeding material - barley -stands very high, ranking very nearly ‘as high as corn. When ground into meal, and fed with cooked potatoes, it makes sweet and excellent. pork, and, as a . grain for hoxges,, it surpasses oats, and is more healthful as a steady feed than corn.

Trnuyps INHorsgs.—l have a young mare that is sound and healthy. The other morning I gave her along drive, and when I reached home I found she was a good deal distressed, and a neighbor told'me she had the thumps. The morning was very hot and murky. Now, please explain to me the cause of this, and the best treatment to give in case it should occur again. Answer:—Spasm of the diaphragm, or thumps, as it is termed, is generally caused by over exertion. Its most prominent syniptoni is a. convulsive ‘motiomw or jerking of the whole body, -accompanied by a dull, thumping noise, unconnected with the pulsation of the heart, emanating posterior to that organ, in the region of the diaphragm. In some instances the pulse of the heart is barely perceptible. The pulse is small. and "~ weak, and there is great difliculty i breathing.

- Uske or A DeEAD - Jlorse—*A dead horse, or other dead animal,” says the American Agriculturist, “should” be skinned and roughly cut up'into as “many small pieces as possible, A plot - of ground, a few rods square, should then be plowed deeply and the carcass thrown upon the soil in the center of -the plowed ground. Some freshly dry-slaked lime should then be scattered upon the heap, so as to cover it thinly but wholly. The loose earth is then to” be heaped over it a foot in l depth, and the pile covéred with boards, so that dogs cannot get-atthe heap and tear it up. If the least smell is perceived, more earth should be thrown upon the heap. In three “months the heap may bé dug over or turned ogr with the plow, and well mixed. =The bones that cannot be broken up should be takew from:'the heap, and the fine matter will be worth at least $2O per ton to use in the hill for corn orcotton. Thelarger bones may be broken up and buried among the roots of grape vines or fruit trees.” . : :

CARE OoF Hoas.-—HHogs love sulphur, and a considerablé amount of it is necéssary to keep them in fair health. When hogs run at large and find green food they supply themselves with what'is needed, but pigs kept in close pens and fed on house 'slops or corn need some more laxative food. Charcoal should be fed to Liogs frequently. Keep a supply by them in small boxes. Mix four quarts of salt, two ounces of sulphur, and one bushel of wood ashes, and keep constantly in the pens in boxes. 1t tends to reduce fever, destroy worms and aid digestion. . OxNrIONs are about ready for harvesting. Pull them when they are perfectly dry, and place them in the shade to cure. Replant the ground with celery, turnips or radishes. - FLY-SPECKS may be easily removed by using water inwhich ‘onion skins have been boiled. ‘ L A B S S ) LETTER FROM ILLENOIS.

DEAR Sir:—This once more I am happy to inform you that I and mine are,still numbered with' the living, and I hope when this epistle reaches vou that it may find you and all 'inquiring friends in high glee on ac“count of the bright anticipations of the glory land. In the first place, I will speak of things of this inconstant life which are perishable. - Crops of all kinds have now advanced and matured so. far that' we can call them good in this part ‘of our commonwealth. But as for the crop called apples, there will° not be enough of this precious fruit in old -La Salle county for twelve pies apiece for each inhabitant; and as for wild fruit, such as grapes, plums, crab-apples, ete., the supply will be very lighit, comparatively speaking. “So, you s‘ee, we are not on the mountain top of prosperity, neither are we in-the low valley of adversity. The wheat and oats are all in shock, and the heft of them will be threshed from, or out of: the shock. - Ladies and gentlemen, .and fellowcitizens: Some time ago I noticed a sketch in' THE BANNER headed as follows: “Here is a good, olgl-fashioned' text for Mr. Musselman or our worthy Illinois correspondent, Adam Christie.” Well, now, my friendly readers of one of the brightest newspapers in the States, T could write from the text abdve alluded to, but as texts are so numerous please let me -choose one for myself. And here it is: “Love one another as I have loved you.” Now you have it; all,.as it were, in a nutshell, from the very stubborn fact that this text covers every particle of duty.of man to God. “And again, if those silk tliieves of New York had that kind of love burning in them, as it did in Christ’s disciples, by the way, why, sir, such crimes upon the earth would be scarce; ~for it is said thatGod is love, therefore Jove worketh no ill to his neighbor. It is true that “in union there is strength.” But love is far greater than the latter, for if it were not so themations of the earth would not unite and fight for their country. - Therefore, this being only too true, we should be explicitly careful whom we choose, or elect, te rule over us. Therefore, our President, who is the highest officer within the -gift of the American people, should not be a man that thinks more of porter—and adulterated at that—than he does of his fellows. But such 'T fear is the case with tog many offi~cers in high trust in this generation and administration. | ° I wag sorry to read of the'death of Andrew Johnson, but it seems to be only too true that the tall, the wise, the reverend head must lie as low as ours. He was a patriot and a statesman of the highest degree, but by the nation he will soon be forgotten, for ‘we are living in a very fast age of the world. . > Lo e

I notice in THE BANNER that you are having a good time with Adventists. ' They were here preaching with us last year, and they did n’t turn one

Mr. Stoll, I would like t& speak further on this question, but I have already written enough to straighten up. | Give it a space in your paper. o It is raining here to-day. We have had more rain fall here within the past three months than for five years previous. R i

‘The Old Settlers’ pic-nic will be held in Ottowa, at the Mineral Springs, on the 26th-inst. = The State Fair will also be held in Ottowa, commencing September 9th.

A Very Pointed Sermon.

' Ef you can’t mou’n for your sins, don’t come foolin’ roun’ dis altah. Iknowsye.

Ef you’s not in ernes’, keep away from heah; den’t bodder us. Do you want us to-make ourselves hoas and weah out.ouah lungs a-prayin’ for you %"lhen you knows you’s only fool'n wid de Lord? I tell you to bemighty cahful. 1 want to see you comin’ so buhdened by the weight of your sins that you can’t.-hold up you heads. I want tosee yoti so heart-broke dat you knees knock togeder when you walk. You ‘must be low-minded. De Bible lays ‘great stress on de low. You's got to ‘get low down in de dus’.: De good lßook says: ‘Low (lo!) iu de-Book 1t “is'writ.” Now mind dat and be low.”

‘Economie Value of thié Sunﬂowf’e:xi The common sunflower is a nn‘ixtive of tropical America, and there it sometimes attains the extmoudjnary, height, for an annual plant, of t&enty. feet. ' It thrives in néarly every region of. the habitable globe. In the south of Europe and in the northwest provinces of India it is cultivated to a congiderable extent. In the; latter country sunflower-plintations :%re said to have 2 very beneficial effect in promoting the lhealthfulness .of regions infested by malaricus fevers. The seeds are valued as food for cattle and poultry. and an oil may be expressed from them which is scarcely inferior. to-olive-oil. One acre ‘of good iland will produce about fifty bushels of seed, each bushel yielding a gallon of oil. The seeds are .also used like al‘monds for making soothing emulsions, and in some parts of Europe a Efood for infants is prepared from them, In tropical America the Indians make bread of them. The leaves are used as fodder for ‘cattle, and the sgalks, when burned, yield large quantities of potash, ~ ! ?
