Mutability of Oar Earth.
The experience we possess of volcanic agency is not yet large enough to enable us to set limit to its force and as we see the rarity of subterraneous action generally proportioned to its violence, there may be appointed in the natural order of things, convulsions to take place after certain epochs, on a scale which the human race has not lived long enough to witness. The soft, silver cloud which writhes innocently on the crest, of Vesuvius, rests there without intermission but the fury which lays cities in sepulchres of lava, bursts forth only after intervals of centuries and the still fiercer indignation of the greater volcanoes, «whicli make half the globe vibrate with earthquakes, and shrivels up whole kingdoms with flame, is recorded only in dim distances of history so that it is not irrational, or even unreasonable, to admit that there may yet he powers (lrmant, not destroyed, beneath the calm surface of the earth, whose date of rest is the endurance of the human race, and whose date of action must* be that of its doom. -The earth as a tormented ball, may have rolled in space for myriads of ages before hunamty w/ts forced from its dust and as a* devastated ruin, it may continue to roll, when all "that dust shall again have been mingled with aSlies that never were warmed with life, or polluted by sin.

DRILL!
(Kulin, the celebrated Drill Inventor's last and best.)
A Force Feed Drill, Operated by Spui Gearing.
NO LOOSE COO WHEELS ABOUT IT!
Irdpossible to Choke it—The Feed Changed in One Second—Will Sow Any Kind of Grain or Seed. Whether Clean or Foul!
The grain is distributed by means of small double spiral feed wheels working in cups under the hopper these wheels carry the grain upwards to a discharge opening in the cup and orce it out, and with it force out straws and other obstructions. It is utterly impossible to choke it, and as evidence of this fact the wheat we have in our sample machine i.-» half clialf, and by turning the wheel it is carried through as well as clean wheat.
It will sow any kind of grain, and in any quantity desired. In other force feed drills to change the feed you remove one cog wheel and put in another and the cog wheels are loose and liable to be lost. In the
FARMERS' FKIi:M DRILL
the wheels are all fastened to tht' drill, and the feed is changed by by simply moving a small lever it is done in one ieconci.
