We have no doubt that surface manuring may be practiced with benefit without certain limits. On lew, wet lands, where the soil is very thin, we should advise this mode of pyictice. We have seen the heavi est crops of grass from this method, of any we ever witnessed. The freshets that overflow our intervales will often leave Sediment from which the largest crops of hay are realized. Ou the other hand, •we believe that a large per cent, of the manure is \o*( by top dressing on dry land, and especially with loan manure. Wo saw a curious illustra tion of this a few years since. A neighbor kept a horse and cow, and not being in a situation to make use of the manure in cultivation, he or dered it hauled out and spread in an old orchard. The consequence was that the ground became completely bound out. Instead of a large crop of grass as was anticipated,it actually diminished. Since then ho has plow ed in his manure, and has received heavy crops. Wo re ollect of top drersing a piece of sandy loam with muck di rectly from the swamps, the con e quencc was that a few stalks of herds grass grew very tall, but there was no thickening up of the grasses on the surface of the ground. It may be regarded as a fixed rule, that plants of rapid growth, like those of our cultivated crops, require the ma nure to be incorporated with the soil to insure their quick dvelopmcnt. Trees grow rapidly where there is a covering of vegetable mould upon the surface of the earth. A cover ing of partially decayed leaves pre vents the evaporati n of moisture from going on so rapidly, while their slow but uniform decay furnishes food for the trees. Hence the advantages of mulching trees. We know of no better condition in which to secure a good crop, than by thoroughly incorporating an abund ance of manure with the soil. Mere ly plowing in manure is not always the best econemy. We have seen horse manure plowed under a green sward early in the fall where it be came a dry and inert substance of no sort of value to a future crop. Ashes and plaster may often be found beneficial as a top dressing, but in theso cases wc should prefer to use thorn with the grain crop and harrow them in. We think that when meadows arc well drained, and of easy access, top dressing will bo practiced more than heretofore in this State.— ■ Maine Fanner. SETTINU FENCE POSTS—Whore it is necessary to set wooden posts, it will be found tliat their duarbility will be greatly promoted by slightly charring or carboizing the surface before inserting them in the soil.— There are few substances more in destructible than charcoal when bur ied beneath the surface and kept constantly in contact with moist soil, or soil that is constantly wet. We have seen posts thus protected, ta ken frori the soil after having stood upwards of thirty years, in perfectly sound condition, so far as rot was <ioncernd, below the surface, while the upper part, which had been ex posed to the atmosphere, Was in a state of complete decay. The cost of charring is but a trifle, and may be effected by means of chips, brush or refuse matter of any kin!. A very slight charring will be sufficient to insure the preservation of most kinds of wood wheather hard or soft. Stakes are euqally benefited by this process.— Qer. Tel. SALTING DOWN CUCUMBERS FOR PICKELS.—Leave half-inch of stem on cucumbers—wash them in cold ■water—immediately pack with salt in alternate layers, salt next to wood —one barrel salt to five of cucmbcrs. Fill barrel full, putting salt on top —cut a wide boa'd so as just to fit inside of barrel— bore half a dozen lialf-inch holes through—place it on pickels with a stone on, which should ■weigh at least twenty-five pounds, so as to keep the pickels always in brine. Take offall scum which rises. Keep the barrels in the shade, and in four weeks take off stone and fill to top, as they will settle some. Put more salt on, then head up, and they are ready for market. It is best to have two sizes of pickels.— Country Gentleman —Our Consul General at Alexandria, Egypt, reports that between June 27th und July 17 th there had been sevonteen hundred and eighty-five death from chol era at that place. Thirty thousand peo ple had left the city. —Save the seeds- Look .to this subject Select the beSt $£ ev *ry variety as they ripen—eure prop erly, label, and store a way for future «se.

If I was wrong in this solution, I hope the ladies will correct me. If I am right, I hope they will acknowledge it. But I may be wrong. I will attempt an other solution, one on more general and comprehensive principles, applicable alike to all. male or female, who may (ail be fore teaching,to make any reasonable pre paration, or while teaching, to (Ntert them selves credibly to fit themselves better. I.A it fuund in a lack of appreciation of the magnitude and responsibility of the work ? Vague and indefinite ideas are preva lent iu regard to teaching. The highest ideal of a teaelier in the minds of many persons is one who goes to school regular ly at nine in the morning, hears scholars say their lessons, flourishes the ratan with some degree of dexterity, does a certain amount of scolding, dismisses at four iu the evening and thinks nothing more of school or anything connected with it till next morning. Few teachers indeed have anything like a just conception of the immense power they are wielding, cither for good or for evil. The present generation will soon pass away and the rising youth of our land will fdl the vacuum—will step into their positions and will act nobly or ignobly their part in the great theatre of the world, accordingas they have taught, and the influence brought to bear upon them now. The spirit of the teacher wheth er noble, broad, magnanimous or other wise, will be infused into the children, and will continue to live with them when the body of the teacher " lies moulder ing in the clay." Not only so, but from them it will be diffused through the veins of society, scattering health or disease on every side. The spirit of the thousands of teachers, who, in former times, guided the nation's youth, are present to-day dictating or suggesting to, or guiding the minds of men and women in private or public capacity, 'file stream of influence flowing from the vast body of teachers this day will move on through succeed ing generations, and where it will stop, or the amount of good or evil resulting from it can uever I*: fully known ill this world. Enough is known, however, to make a thoughtful mind hesitate before entcriug the school room, not only to ask the question—am I qualified to teach ? but the equally important question— what spirit am I «112? The eminently passive relation of children in the school room and the readiness with which they receive impressions from the teacher makes his position one of immense res ponsibility. Where arc the teachers that fully rcalir.o it ? With the desire of impressing the minds of contemplate teach ing, as well as those engaged iu it, with some sense of this responsibility and the consequent obligations they are under to qualify themselves for teaching, I write. While this is applicable to all without regard to sex, I intended it more express ly, for female teachers, for the reason that from the large accession to the ranks of the teacher from their sex, the education al interests are, to a great extent, entrus ted to their hands. And for the further reasons, that since their inducements to engage in teaching are greater than those of males, there may be more danger of incompetent female teachers pressing their way into the school reom than "in competent male teachers. If toiching becomes a profession with in the next quarter of a century, in .my opinion, it will become so through the agency of female teacheis. There is work enough now for all the female teach ers in the county or State during nine or ten months in the year, if they were well qualified—fitted for the work as they ought to be. And what is to hinder them ? A female as well as a male can, if she will, have a good education—as good as she may desire, or as may bo necessary for any school. Both the State and the county offer inducements through Nor mal Institutes, which BO tcacheryJeficient in normal culture or general knowledge of branches to be taught, ought to dis regard. District Institutes afford another and ever present opportunity for improve ment. There seems to be a kind of sen timentality prevalent among some people, which makes it improper for a lady to turn out to an Institute, on a wet day, or to travel several miles through the mud to reach one. Such must be " weak in the faith" or they would see in such acts an exhibition of fidelity to the cause which has been espoused, highly com mendable and eminently worthy of being imitated. Instances there were in Mifflin county last winter, of lady teachers, who attend ed every meeting of the District Insti tute, although part of the time they had to traVf!or six miles through rain and'mud. with few exceptions, ladies cap, if the will, find some other way of going where it is really too bad togo or walk. Titece is, therefore, now no ex cuse for any teacher, malo or female, to persist in being ignorant of these things jig or she ought to know. Where such is the ease, one or two things may be in ferred :-t-either a lack o.f brains or of a to use them ,; .either of which is sufficient to disqualify any one for the s(&ool room.

Thus said God unto Abraham ; and by these words we are instructed that to live in the presence of (Jod isthe way to per fection. Whenever we depart from that way it is by losing sight of God, and for getting our dependence upon him. (jod is the light which we see and the end to which wo should aim. In all the trans actions and different events of our life, we should consider only the order of his providence, and should maintain a sense of his presence in the midst of all our affairs. "I will lift up mine eyes to the hills, from whence couieth my help." Depending upon our feet is not sufficient for our deliverance froiu the innumerable snares that surround us ; the danger, in deed, is below, but the deliverance can only come from nbove ; thither must we raise our eyes to him from whom our help cometh. We are continually encompass ed by our enemies ; nor are we, on ac count of our infirmities, in less danger from within ; there is no hope, for us in Jesus Christ, who has overcome the world for himself and for us; his omnipresence will support our weakness. — Fenclon. How People Treat Each Other. Not one man in a thousand sees those with whom he associates as they really are. If the prayers of Hums were grant ed, and we could all see ourselves as oth ers see us, our self-estimates would in all probability be much more erroneous than they are now. The truth is, that we regard each other through a variety of lenses, no one of which is correct. Pas sion and prejudice, love and hate, benev olence and envy, spectacle our eyes and utterly prevent us from observing accu rately. Many whom we deem the porce lian of human clay aio mere dirt', and a greater number of those wo put down iu our " black book" are no farther off from Heaven, and perchance a little nearer than the censors who condemn them. We habitually undervalue each other, and in estimating character the shrewd est of us only now and then make true appraisal of the virtues and defects of even our closest intimates. It is not just or fair to look at character from a stand point of one's own selection A man's profile may be unprepossessing, and yet bis full face agreeable. The merchant, who gives curt answers in his counting-house, may bo a tender husband and father, and a kind helper of the desolate and oppres sed. On the other hand, your good-hu mored person, who is all smiles and sun shine in public, may carry something as hard as the nether millstone, in the placo whe.e his heart ought to be. Such ano malies are common. There is no com fort, however, for those whose misjudge ments of theirfellow mortals lean to the kindly side—such mistakes got i their credit in the great account, lie who ihiuks better of his neighbors than they deserve cannot be a bad man, for the standard by which his judgment is guid ed, is the goodness of his own heart.— It is only the base who believe all men base —or, iu other words, like themselves. Few, however, are all evil. Kven Nero did a good turn to somebody; for, when llome was rejoicing over his death, some loving baud covered his grave with flow ers. Public men are seldom or never fairly judged—at least, while living.— However corrupt, they ar<s sure to find eulogists. History may do them justice : but they rarely get it while living, either from friend or foe.— Ger. Tel. A Secret of Youth- There are women wo cannot grow old —women who, without any special effort, remain always young and always attract-, ire. The number is smaller than it should be, but there is still a sufficient number to mark the difference between this class aud the other. The secret of tli is perpetual youth lies not in beauty, for some women possess it who are not at all handsome ; nor in dress, for they are frequently careless in that respect, so far as the mere arbitrary dictates of fash ion are concerned ; nor in having noth to do, for these ever young women are always as buisy as bees, and it is very well known that idleness will fret people into old age and ugliness faster than over work. The charm, we imagine, lies in a sunny temper—neither more nor less, — the blessed gift of always looking on the bright side of life, and of stretching the mantle of charity over everybody's faults and failings. It is not much of a secret, but it is all that we have been able to discover, and we have watched such with great intrest, and a determination to re port truthfully for the bcoefit of the rest of the sex. It is very provoking that it is something which canuot be corded up and sold for fifty cents a bottle; but as this is impossible, why the rest of us will have to keep on growing old, and ugly, and disagreeable, as usual.— Jenny June. —Whatever weakens your reason, im pairs tlie tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes off the relish of spiritual things—ie short whatever increases the strength and au thority ofyour body over your mind—rhat thing is sin to you however jjiooce.ot it may bo in itself.
