GREENE historical View of the American
Revolutimf!' By George Washington
Greene, author of " Historical Studies,"
iographical Studies," etc. pp. 459,

lishers. 1865. For sale by J. B. Lippin
cott & Co" Philadelphia.
Too 'much can scarcely be said in praise
of this volume of lectures on various as
liects-of the Revolutionary struggle. Writ
ten and delivercd during the early part of
our own conflict, they are full of practical
present interest. But the author has
shown such sagacity in selecting his topics
and has presented them in sucli connec
tions ' and attitudes, has brought out so
many little-known, but valuable, and often
thrilling facts and phases of that great
struggle, and shown such a liVelY sYmpatly
with ;its objects, that a permapent,interest
and value attach to his work The list
of topics is as folloWs`: The' Cause's' and
Phases of the Revolution; , Congress; Con
gress and the State Governments, Finances
Of the Revolution; Diplomacy of the Revo
lution; The Army—the Campaigns of the
Revolution; The Foreign 'Element; The
Martyrs of the Revoltition; The Literature
of the. Revolution. The appendix contains
a chronological outline, statistical tables of
great value, and an address of army officers
to General Greene on the violation by the
British of the cartel for the exchange of
prisoners. .
POUNTRY PARSON : The Graver Thoughts
of a Cotlntry Parson. By the author of
"Recreations of 'a Country Parson." Sec
- and Series. pp. 322, 16mo. Boston :
Ticknor & Fields, Publishers; 1865. For
sale by 3. B. Lippincott & Co., Phila.
These discourses are not without attrae
tion in the smoothness and grace of style,
the transparency of the thoughts, and the
good sense of the suggestions. But there
is far too much of the merely thoughtful
essayist, and too, little of the preacher, in
them, to save them from dulness as ser
mons. They are not eloquent; theiradapt
edness to accomplishing_ the immediate ,
practical results of sermons is small"; they,'
iti a word, lack power. To thoughtful
minds they are instructive. One cannot
read the sermon, for instance s on the ",4-
peetancy of Creation" without having one's
finer sympathies stirred. As essays,
" Graver Thoughts," they may pass; even
then, however, with a regretful Tetuan- ,
bronco of the "Recreations" which enter-'
tained us so, four or foie years ago. As
sermons they can never attain considera
tion. •
LIFE IN HEAVEN : There faith is changed
into sight, and hope is passed into bliss
ful fruition. By the author of "Heaven
our Home," and " Meet -for Heaven:"
Boston : Roberts Brothers. 16m0., pp.
:273. Laid paper.
This is the third of a series of books
which has enjoyed an enormous circulation
in Great Britain. The design is to em—
body and popularize ; by the, aid of the lin
agination, proceeding from Scripture pre
mises, the heaven of the Bible. The in
tention of the writer seems to be sincere,
and considerable boldness and ingenuity is
shown in the effort to give vividness to our
conceptions of the place of eternal blessed
ness, but we must say the well•trieant idea
LS quite " run into the ground." Four
whole chapters are given in detailing ima
ginary conversations or soliloquies of)lai;
Paul, Newton, Milton, Pollock, and others
in heaven. We were startled by the re
semblance of the last part of the work in
plan and in presumptuousness at least, to
the absurd simulated speeches and ad
dresses put:into the mouths of the departed
heroes and philosophers of mankind by
those arch-deceivers, the professional spirit
rappers. Two whole chapters are largely
occupied with the merest repetitions in de
scribing, one after another, the parting by
death and the reunion in heaven, of parties
of various degrees of relationship, parents
and children, husbands and wives, brothers
and sisters, &c
The book is rather adapted to encourage
a morbidly prying disposition, and owes its
popularity in part to its addressing that
very weak side of our natures.

THE HUSBANDMAN'S PRAYER.
FROM ,REF. MR. PRITCHARD'S BRITISH POEMS.
Thou great Creator of this - earth
That gave to every seed'its hirth
By. Whom our fields with showers are blest,
Regard the husbandmares'request.
I'm going now to till my ground,
And scatter there my seed around,
Which T uo more expect to see,
Unless thy blessing sow with me.
In vain our seed around we throw,
In vain we harrow where we sow ;
Except thou dost our labors bless,
And give the grain a due increase:
Not one of all my barn supplies
Will 'ever from the ridges rise,
Unless thy blessing ddth pervade.
The buried corn, and shoot the blade.
Let then thy blessing, Lord, attend
On all the labors of my hand •;
That I-with joy may reap'and mow.
A rich return for what I sow.
Open the windows of the sky,
And shower down plenty from on high . ;
With fat of earth and seed sustain,
And raise a spear from every grain.
Let not our sins thy vengeance move
To turn our heaven to brass above;
Or harden into iron our earth, -
And o'er our fields to spread a dearth. '
But pour in season,on the'grain
The foimer and the latter rain;
in •
And proportion due supply
The needful change of wet..and,dry.
Forbid the vermin to devoiir,
Forbid the mildew's hlasting • Show'r;
Forbid the tempest to 'destroy
My growing croii , and promised joy.
Crown with thy goodness' . Lord,:the year,
And let -thy blessing round:am:ker.; i:;- • , . •
Let. Vales be clothed with grass-and Corn,
And hills let various flock adorM •
Give to the sons of men their bread. ,
-Let beasts with fatt'ning grasslie„fed ; •
All thincrs in plentY, Lord, prOide, • =
That all our wants may be supplied., - •
Give ns a plenty, Lord, we pray,
From fields of corn, from meads of hay;
Of fruit from orchard's grafted stocks;
Of milk from-all the milky flocks.
Thou, Lord, vouchsafe to bless our land,
And every work we tape in hand;
That so with lifted hands we may
Return thee prkises night and day.
HEALTHY SURROUNDINGS;
Although we may not, without ,great
disappointment, expect, short of Heaven,
perfectlj healthy surroundings, yet more
healthy surroundings than many farm
houses have are certainly attainable, and
would conduce more largely' than any are
aware to the health of their occupants.
The word "surroundings" leads the mind
first to the door-yard. Very important in
deed is it that the door-yard—the back
door-yard—should be sweet and clean. If
•
all the waste of the dwelling, in wash water,
dish water, and slops, etc., is thrown upon
the ground in gie back-yard, a - long' spell
of warm dampliVeather in autumn . will
daily and nightly—emphatically the last—
fill the house with the seeds of - deadly,
disease., The remedy , for this is either ear
rying the slops to a distance from the house
and emptying them on a pile of absorbents,
or conveying them away by an underground
drain. If there is sufficient descent, a drain
of six inch tile, I have proved, will answer
well if clear water is occasionally passed
through it in quantities, and copieras water
used as a deodorizer. A drain of small tile
will in a short time fill up with paste, and
be useless.
The next point of defect is want of clean
liness and purity in the cellar. If impure
air ascends by every opening fron the cellar
intolhe house, how can the inmates expect
good health?
The third place where some farmers' fami
lies fall prematurely into the •arms of death,
is small unventilated bed-rocas, filled with
the emanations from the back door-yard
and cellar, and the exhalations from the
sleeper's body, and shut tight from, night
to morning. Typhus fever and malignant
dysentery, etc., here find a congenial at
mosphere.
There is something, too, in the position
and plan of a house. Let the house front
the southeast, so that the front appartments
May be cool
.in summer afternoons, and the
back rooms be in the shade in the fore part
of the day. This gives coolness for labor,
and also for rest. Two appartments in
depth are enough; more than that neces
sarily excludes from a portion of the house
sunlight and outside fresh ventilation: An
apartment thus situated ,cannot cherish
life. How much of our sickness is caused
by unhealthy surroundings which we might
remedy or remove, is an interesting subject
of inquiry, and might with profit, occupy
the attention of every farmer .—Rural New
Yorker.
SORGHUM FOR SYRUP,
A committee appointed by the Wisconsin
State Sorghum Convention to examine and
report upon varieties of Sorgho and lan=
phee, at the conclusion of their report, re
commended "the growing of the large Sot
ghum for the main crop ;" and asserted
that "the early Sorghum is valuable and
almost indispensable to the grower and
manufacturer, in order that the labor of
securing the crop may be extended."
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTPTA nEURSDAY, MAY 25, 1865.
James Marford, of Licking County, Ohio
a broom manufacturer, writes the Rural,
that he finds the dwarf 'broom corn prefer
able to the large variety for • several rea
sons :-1. It grows in a sheath and is not
so liable to bend down. 2, It is a finer an&
tougher bruih, more durable and easier
worked. t. The same bulk of it will make
more and better .brooms.
Whatever havoc birds may make among
the fruits in summer, during April and
May they live upon insects, and the Mira
her - they destroy is immense. - Happy is
he who has his graden full of them. Wrens
,and blue birds especially should be courted
and furnished with houses of appropriate
sizes ; for wrens, boxes 4 by 4 with au inch
bole for entrance inches above the
`floor, 'for blue bfrds, '0 by 6 with 1-41
ineh hole. Colonize differerit birds in dif-
'PereidplaceS;for the wrens are oarrelsoin t e.:
—Agrialtufist.
As I have not, seen this nindre of culti
vating cucumbers in print, I will send it.
I have tried it with good 'effect. Take, a
tight barrel, with one head, and. make some
eight or ten holes, at the. bulge of the bar-
Vel, with a small bit—says :three-quarters
of an inch—Land sink the barrel in the
,
ground level with the surfaceof the ground.
TWeii - fill' the barrel with stone ,up as high
as the holds, and put on about four inches
of straw; then fill up the balance with good,
rich loam, and fill . the barrel up with water
and plant plenty of seed so that you can thin
them out to six or eight stalks. In.'case of
I:liouth put a pail of water in the barrel
abo,nt once a week. I raised off three bar
rels, planted 'this way, over four barrels of
pickles; and if they are well watered,
through'bearing season, they, - will bear well
until the frost kills the vines.
One needs a scaffold to let the vines run
on':—Say, take four poles, ten feet long,
and set them about fourfeetapart within:to
end on . - the ground, and raise the' other
some five feet high with pieces of lath or
brush laid across, and I will insure that
you have no crooked cucumbers.—Rural
