The school was large, and the scholars were the daughters and sons of the merchants of one ol lhe most populous scarports.

There were exceedingly pretty giris mortg them, and the town was noted for the beauty of its females There was' one rosy cheeked miss, rather older than myself, whose dancing wns particularly spirited and graceful. She was not tall but finely formed, and her eyes were ofgreat beauty end brilliancy. Her temper waa very lively and her conversation polished and humorous. All these were very attractive to lad who •eemed to live only for enjoymeoi. Whenever an opportunity offered I selected her for my partner in the danoe. She seemed .•nothing loth,'and we were moat happy.—

Hut I could not talk to her, for my bashfullness was extreme. I would have given one of my .arms to have been able to tell her the lender things which crowded upon my heart. if*

But 1 found it in vain and was forced to content myself with only looking unutterable emotions.'

Some months passed in this blissful intercourse. She treated me as if I was a 'promising boy,' who might grow into something. 1 this ahe did not show muoh judgement for although quite young in years I was as capable oi an exalted and soul subduing

I suoceeded, aftlt div^ft" IfTorts which cent the perspiration in streams to my forehead, (n seating myself by her tide and after stammering attempts, at last subdued into an interesting conversation.

The evening passed off delightfully, and the party arose to go home. Then watching tny opportunity, I asked leatv« to attend my fair one to her dwelling. She smilingly contented. We walked slowly along the silent streets of the town, apart from the rest the party, and now and then putting arnd Answering some questions of triviialinterest

lite Clinton Courant tells a story of a rural philospher, who had somewhat advanced in years without .Jeftrning much of the mysteries of nature, What knowledge the dd gentleman had gleaned was entirely independent of science, ife did not know whether a microscope waa "something to eat, or a new fangled farming machine A young friend, fresh from school, once paid him a visit, and was very anxious to enlighthen the old man on the wonders of the microsoope, a specimen of which he carried about him. While the old philosopher was making a frugal meal jn the field at noon, the youth produced his microscope, and explained its operation, which he illustrated by exhibiting its power upon several bogs and divers minute atoms of animate matter at hand. To his surprise (he aged pupil did not manifest much astonishment, and, stung by his indifference, be detailed to him how many Moras of living creatures he devoored at every mouthful. and ia each drop which quenched his thirst. At this bis bearer was skeptical: to prove the fact, the boy snatched from his hand a ehvttk of rich cheese whicii ha was then devouring, and placing it under the mtgnifier, the mass of writing animaktihe was triumphantly pointedat.

Hopes that cfoster around young life that swells in the heart of manhood, have fallen from aroand iu like the forest leaves, when the frost of autumn have chilled them unto death. Ambition with its hollow promises, and pride, with its lofty look, have vanished away. The world, with its deoeitfulness, pi ease re, with its gilded temptations, are gone, and alone, in utter destitution of all that time promised, it must start on its solitary journey across the valley aod shadow of death!

Make oo noise!" Let the pie tumult of life cease. Let oo sound break the soul's communion with itself, ere it starts on its returnless flight. Trouble it not with sighr iog. stir it not with the accents of sorrow.— Let the tear stand still on th» cheek of affliction, and let not the wailing of grief break the solemn silence of tha death scene. Let it hear the still small voice that call it away. Let it gather the accents that come from within the dark shadows of eternity, saying to it, "oome home." The whispering of angels are in its ear obstruct not their silvery voices by grosser sounds. A far off music comes floating to it on the air.

Heaven is opening upon its vision. The bright turrets, the tall spires, the lofty domes of the Eternal City are emerging from the spectral darkness, and the glory of the Most High is dawning around them. The white throne is glistening in the distance, and the white robed angels are beckoniog the weary spirit to its everlasting home. What is life that it should be clung to longer?

The principles of the Democratic party are glorious emanations from that great law of equality ol rights, which God gave us at our birth but how are they lobe carried out and enforced, without placing men in power who believe in them and venerate them?—This can nly be done through the organization of party for our opponents will be united, and lew men will take the trouble to organize and sustain the party, if they have not the,hopes of lis rewards.

The Edoeatioa of Yoajff Farmer*.

1 »r JL' &*-•••>

Agriculture is not only the most neeessa ry but Is oae af the most elevated pursuits of maa.

To

be visttccesslttl farmar requires intelligence. and the father who desires his sons and his daughters to succeed in thst path of life, should qualify them by a sound and jusdicious education. The prevalent idea that a knowledge of reading writing and arrifhmetic is all that is required for the culture of the soil is a great error. The rudimsots of a far more extended knowledge, especially of all the departments of natural philosophy. and of alhibe laws by which God governs the physical world. !*:to tha young farmer vastly mora important, than to one engaged in any learned professions.

The age in which we live is remarkable for its discoveries and its inventions. But all these wonderful contrivances are the mere adaptions of natural laws and natural powers to the uses and wants of man. Man can create no new power, or law of nature but his ingenuity and invcution can apply existing known laws to economical and useful purposes. It was the knowledge of the expansive force ot steam.- which led to the invention ot the steam Engine—of the chemical forces of oertain elements, to the invention of gunpowder—the electricity to follow a met alio wire to the invention of the electric telegraph.—and so of every other invention that has benefitted the world. Now in almost every Instance a knowledge of the power of law preceded invention. The more peiieotiy the farmer understands the natural laws which favor and invigorate his crops and his herds, the more successful is he in bis pursuits.

But how shall this desirable education be obtained? Shall he send his sons to the Academy or College where mind is educated at the sacrifice of habits ot industry and physical strength or his daughters to boarding school, with similar results. By no means. Let the farmer, let every farmer interest himself faithfully aud earnestly in sustaining and improving his district school.— See that the teacher has oapaoily to instruct his SODS and daughters in all they ought to learn. Honor and reward him as the man. to whom the best interest and truest welfare of his children are committed. Provide complete school houses, adapted to their purposes, with facilities for sound and easy instruction, and the best books in all the departments of knowledge taught.

Man is made for happiness. Wealth is but the means of living, not the end. The man who toils through life

Jo leave a rich

inheritance lo his children, more frequently provides for their ruin. The young man who inherits a fortune, too often yields himself to pleasures, which tend to poison life and destroy ever)* useful or estimable quality. The young should be taught, that the sweetest pleasure is the discharge of duty to God, to man, and to himself. Thus educated he is prepared to enter into society, and to bear his part in the great business of making the world the better for his existence. Riches begets a taste (or luxury, luxury disqualifies for business and leads lo idleness idleness to immorality, crime, and finally ruin. Vet 1 would not inveigh sgainat the pursuit*) of wealth, with right objects in view. The advice of Burns to his young friend, I would impress upon the heart and mind of every young man:

To such a maa, industry is a blessing, and he recognizes in the fiat of Jshovah 'in the sweat of thy face shall thou eat thy bread.*' the beneficence of a kind father. It not only provides for his body the things necessary for its comfort, but it acta directly upon his heart, making him a better citi2ea, a better father, and belter man.

Without industry, without knowledge, what would the human race be? What would the world he? Man would be a savage, the world a wilderness. lodustry without knowledge is but the toil of ihe slave. By their union, nations are enlightened, and^the great social fabric of civilized man is constructed.

Farmers, mechanics and laboring men remember how much you may contribute to the well being of Society, the progress of the world, and the happiness and wel fsre of your own oSspring by giving them a soond aad practical education. To preserve their

Prospects of tho Faxmer. iv At no period since the formation of the world, have the prospects of the farmer been so bright and so cheering as at ths present time, leaver werasuoh encouragement lleld out I

Ok induce the farming portion of community to press on in their noble pursuit— a pursuit which is better calculated to bring out the elevating and ennobling traits of the human character then any other. In sH former times it has been noticed shut every person whose cranium wss not filled too abundantly with that needful article called common sense, has made a farmer, and thatV too. without any of the requisite knowledge of the differq§! kinds of soil, or of the different kinds of grain adapted to it. Even the merest school boy was qualified for that important task without any preparation, while if he intended to pursue any other 00up&tion, he must devote long years of laborious study before making his debut. This has been the reason why farmers have never occupied that station in society, which their calling so justly entitles them to. But now a new era is dawning upon the world. Mankind are awakening to a knowledge of its importance, and are giving to it that attention it so richly merits. The old idea that farmers need not receive any eduoaiion, or an education in any way to be compared with that of those intended to follow any other pursuit, has been fully exploded, and farmers, instead of being held in contempt, are becoming the most respected of any class in society. This is as it should be, and as the "iron man" has truly said,

#The

best part of our population are the cultivators of the soil. Independent farmers are every where the basis of society, and the true friends of liberty.' And there is but one way to be independent, and that is not only to understand the business thoroughly, but to devote the ieisuro hours ol youth, and the many leisure hours of mature age, to the improvement of the mind. In this way, and this only, can farmers be truly independent, both in regard lo properly, and to their position in society. The increasing interest manifested in this branch of industry. is attributable in part to the agricultural schools, in pari to the deep and patient researches of scientific men, and in pari to the agricultural journals, through whose influence a spirit of competition, utiknown before, has been excited. The groal amount of labor saved by the use of better tools, and the invention of many useful machines, of which farmers fifty years ago knew nothing. and the larger crops raised now than formerly, are all instances of that brighter day, the dawn of which has but begun. The ready market furnished for the produce of the farm, and the high price which it almost invariably commands, are sufficient encouragement for our young men to engage in this wealthy and invigorating pursuit. Then let us not leave this ccoupation for tho hope of place* but remember that the day is not far distant, when the farmers will represent the country in the oouncils of tho nation.-— The times demand it, and it will be realized. —Dollar Newspaper, ill I""' 'i'M

f, ^^^^From the Scientific American. Feeding Dees. S.fW. In No 40, Vol. 8, of your valuable ystJtir I discover that you again stale that bens make S lbs. of honey from one 0/ sugar, and I aave seen it stated by scientflio men, and meh of note in the world, that bees would convert sugar or molasses, &3., into pure honey. Now I wish to stale that the idea is wholly erroneous. You have no need to 'revise your chemistry,' so far as quantity is concerned.

The best food for bees, aside from honey itself, is a thick syrup made of refined sugar, of which a middle oolony will remove from three lo four lbs. in 24 hours, let this be done in the fall season, and three months thereafter examine the comb into which it is placed, and you wilt find pure grain loaf sugar instead of honey-*-and just the same result will be found by feeding your, "six cent brown sugar." Take 1 lb. of brown sugsr aud make it a syrup, and when taken into the hive it will weigh two lbs heavier than it did before the feeding, but there is not two lbs. more honey, but iwo lbs. of sir rup placed in the comb, and upon examination three months thereafter it will be found lo be grained sugar but ths ssme colony will not remove over half as much of this as they wilt of the loaf sugar. Bui tha best feed is the honey itself. 1 have known a large colony to remove from 0 to 8 lbs. of honey from pans in twelve hour*, thus you may see from the quantity of syrup taken up it is impossible thst it should undergo any considerable ohange in the stomsch of the worker. A bee will fill its stomach from the pan in from 30 to 60 second*. and empty it in less time, hence it is evident that the whole theory, with regard to the capacity of the bee to change the nature of the substance taken into the honey stomach or sack is wholly false, and to show jmms the confidence I have in the above statement 1 will agree 10 give tl .!0 for a stand of bees that wiU convert sugar into pure honey, such as they get from white clover or FLOWERS in general, 11.
