For the past few days we have been indulging in that, which to an editor, is a great luxury we have been in the country, and we have never more fully realized the truth of the saying that "God made the country, and man the city." Every thing in the rural districts now wears the impress of the kindnes of a beneficent Providence. Health is His richest blessing, and this generally prevails. An abundant harvest has crowned the husbandman's labors, and the rich verdure of all vegetable life gladdens the heart of every appreciative nature. We passed over the railroad from this place to Hamilton, thence to Carlisle on the Dayton road, and then by private conveyance to the residence of Mr. Stephen Hunt, which is situated in the heart of Warren, oar native county. It is true that this short line of travel took us over a district of country which is unsurpassed in the west for fertility of soil, but the wheat and oats crops, in our opinion is better than they have been for many years, even in the rich lands we have referred to. The corn never looked better, and a few timely showers will make it superior to any previous crop, for at least many years. In that portion of Warren county which we visited, the svs- . e : i, i ;.ii 1 ..." . r j and industry superior to most portions of j tho west. Many of the farms have been iu . cultivation for half a century, and yet tho' soil is as rich as it wns in itsvirtrin f.rtnit 1 -o i Anfl . M.n I . . I . V ...

He has most successfully tested the bensfits of underdrawing, thus bringing in-, to cultivation lands that were alone time; regarded as worthless, and which weie roally so in their original state. We wish our farmers could all see the success which has attended bis system of underdrawing--many , waste places would become the most pro- ' . , t ur ti ' ducttve portions cf their farms. Mr. Hunt s I is at least 300 feet above the Miami river, j and yet his crops are iu every respect equal : to those upon the rich alluvial bottoms of tuogicai .iUJAllll ll. ri On Sabbath we attended church at Union Village, the priucely home ot the Shakers. The meeting convened at half past 10 o'clock, aud when we entered, we found gome fifty of the Sisters, and about an equal number of the Brethren seated iu the most j perfect silence. In a few minutes they all; arose to their feet the seats were noisely removed, and they stood on their iesjective siJes from the centre of the room, and sung some of their peculiar hymns. A leader then made a few remarks upon the subject ' of Christian love to one another, urging the j practice of that essential duty. He then j directed that a march should be had as a ; part of the worship. Several brothers and sisters then tooK a position near the centre of the room, and sung, rather monotonous; two and two, and the brothers formed in the ' same manner, and then marched around the! room both starting in opposite directions! at the same time kcenine- time in their' t - j Uebtly hurried steD and with their bands After some ten minutes spent in this way. they were aain seated, and were addressed ' by Mr. Realf. a recent convert and a "en-' .

His stvle is sym pathetic, and doubtless interested those who have confidence iu the candor and stability of hit professions, which were profuse and positive. "We hope his practice may be as honest and enduring as bis professions were positive. Another brother made some very appro priate remarks, which were followed by singing. The leader then remarked that he thought that they had been engaged there perhaps aa long as it waa profitable, with which remark the meeting was dismissed There were quite a number of outsiders and sinners, like ourself, present. Tbe worship of tha Shakers Is impressive, aad wax carried on ia a spirit of meekneag and yet with becoming dignity. All seemed to be actuated by a pure spirit, and to be imbued with a holy xeaL Truth and candor, however, requires tbat we should aay, that ia oar opinion, judging bj a phre-

nological criterion thy ere mentally constituted to appreciate such religious exercises with more confidence tbaa many others would be. We could but 'notice, that but few of those who we suppose to be the matter spirits of the institution were present.The good order, the scrupulous cleanliness and simplicity of their dr-ss must command respect for the institution. Their present accessions are mostly from orphans, an d the unfortunate of the world. We learned from the Matron that a lady was there on that day, seeking to find a home among them, to escape the cruelties she had long endured from the brutalities of a drunken husband. She had walked four miles with three small children, that hot and sultry day under a burning sun in the hope that herself and children might have a home there. We believe however that they did not accept her. On Monday we visited their village again for the purpose of examining their system of agriculture and mechanic arts. We are under many obligations to Moses Miller, Harvey Eads, C. Ilolloway, and their highly intelligent botanist for courtesies shown us. They have some of the finest imported cattle in the United States, and we take the liberty of saying that far

mers who want some superior young catI tie, sow is the time to get them at that village. They offer their celebrated, thorough bred Blco for sale. We visited their workshops, and found every department carried on with great economy arid system in labor. We were most particularly interested in their

therefore feel no hesitation in calling the attention of our fellow-citizens to this efficient means of protection in time of fire; and to urge our "city fathers" to take this subject of catering to their wants, under serious consideration: The Steam Fire Engine. A third trial of this machine took place on Saturday, and was highly satisfactory to all who witnessed it. It took four and a half minutes to raise ! the steam. When the machinery was well' at work, a stream of water, through 150 feet1 of hose, was thrown more than 20 feet over the vane on the Old South Church spire; and all the performances of the engine showed effective and admirable working of the machinery. A horizontal stream, through 100 feet of hose with an L'.ch and an eighth nozzle, was thrown 240 feet, and, with an inch and a quarter nozzle, 225. The average pressure of steam was less than fifty pouuds. After this trial, a meeting was held by the committee of the city council which has had the matter in charge; anil there was also a meeting of the board of ance of the niacli ine was deemed sat i-factory. It was formally accepted by the authorities, and paid for as agreed. This steam fire engine is a very irportant addition to our machinery for extin guishing fires; and a well made machine ot this patent is unquestionably superior to any other iu existence.
