[The following signs of rain are quite philosophical and, stated as they are here, they constitute a literary curiosity that well deserve preservation. The author is supposed to be the same person who dis covered the art of vaccinnationl The hollow winds begin to blow, The clouds look black, the glass is low ; The soot falls down, the spaniels sleep, The spiders from their . cobweb creep ; Last night the sun went pale to bed, The moon in haloes hid her head; The boding shepherd heaves a sigh For see ! a rainbow spans the sky ; The walls are damp, the ditches small; Closed is the pinkeyed primpernal; The squalid toads at dusk are seen, Slowly crawling o'er the green ; • Loudquacks the ducks, the peacocks cry, Hark how the chairs and tables crack . Old Betty's joints are on the rack; And see yon rooks, howodd their flight, They imitate the gliding kite ; Or seem precipate to fall, As if they felt the piercing ball ; How vaatless are the sporting swine; The busy flies disturb the kine ; Low o'er the grass the swallow wings, The cricket, too, how sharp he sing, Puss on the hearth, with velvet paws, Sets wiping o'er her whiskered jaws; Tho wind unsteady veers around, Or settling in the south is found ; The whirling winds the dust obeys, And o'er the rapid eddy plays; The leech disturbed, is newly risen, Quite to the summit of his prison ; 'Twill surely rain, I see with sorrow, Our jaunt must be put off to morrow." American Farming. We have noted frequently, as the ocea sion arose, how far superior the American farmer is in every respect over the Euro pcan ; and how much of this superiority is due to the maintainenee of purely American institutions. The subject presses itself continually on ourattention, in connection with events as they almost daily rise. Here is a letter before us from Palestine, giving a' graphic account of the agriculture of that region. The people themselves, set ting aside their peculiar views and prac tices, are by no means a bad set. They are remarkable sober ; indeed, they affect a contempt fbr European civilization, on account of the prevailing drinking-habits of these countries. They are almost to a remarkably degree, and then their indus try in their own peculiar way is far super ior to that of Italy, Spain, or some other south European peoples. And then land is comparatively cheap. In many places it requires irrigation ; but on the whole the natural advantages are really superior to much that we have in our own western country, while the moral element in many respects is equal to what we often find among the pioneers of the far west. But there is nothing to stimulate ambi lion'; nothing to make a man look higher. He is born a laborer, he is a laborer, he must die r , laborer. Every man must know his place, and he must keep it. There can be but little invention in a society like this. The rulers are satisfied, the poor are satisfied ; that is, they may grumble and fret, but they have a sort of an idea that the sorrows and sufferings are all right in the sense that what is to be will be, and so they must endure without effort for any better things. It may be that the mer chants are satisfied, though this would be a remarkable phenomenon ; but these are by no means a numerous class, and are confined chiefly to those who send the farm products to England and bring back for the richer ones these goods which England loves so well to sell, but which these Pal estine people might just as well make for themselves if their civilization would let them understand it. Sa we find farming pretty much as it was in Noah's days.. Wheat is mostly brought in on the backs of camels, and trodden out by the feet of mules, though here and there two and three horse thresh ers have been introduced from England. Maize is cut off below the cars, and the grain tramped out in the same way. The best farms now have at least the modern fan for blowing out of the chaff. The granery is simply a hole dug in the ground, and lined with chaff to keep out the dirt. The English plows are yet unpopular. They cut a forked stick. On one end of the fork they put a broad iron shoe, like a cultivator-tooth, and a pair of oxen is hitched to the end of the other fork, the plowman takes hold of an end beyond where the forks unite. The clumsy thing weighs about thirty pounds, and even there costs three or four dollars to get ready to use. It is continually broken, and a con siderable portion of the working-time is lost in patching the thing. The farm-men work from sunrise to sunset, the actual day being about the same as ours here in Philadelphia, though the climate is much warmer than ours. For all this long ser vice compensation is twenty-five cents per day, and harvest time they get a half bushel of wheat extra. They grind their own corn, mixing wheat and maize together, making a sort of black bread, which is eaten with onions or cactus berries, and this forms almost their sole food. We talk about our taxes, our corrup tions, our robberies by men in public po-- sitions, who in some respects instead of our servants become masters. We are bad enough in these respects, we may even be worse than we are thought to be, but we are a long way from being in a condition like this. We take up this Palestine case because it represents a very different phase of civ ilization to that very often referred to. We look at Italy, Spain, Ireland, and sim ilar places which are under a severe theo cracy, or else, to these countries where drunkenness, murder, robbery, or similar crimes prevail, and look to the existence of these facts as the cause of the want of progress ; but hero is a people who are free from the particular vices, and who are not so despotically ruled as regards mental choice, and who are in so far as their ma terial prosperity is concerned, just as bad as they. The American farmer has his troubles. lle does well when he tr . 3by every means in his power to make these troubles less; but with all the worst of these he is a thou sand times better off than the farmers i of other countries, whose ,ystem of govern ment is so very much inferior to his own. —Germantown Telegraph.

IffSTERY SOLVED! THE GREAT SECRET OF THE WONDERFUL SUCCESS OF VEGETINE It strikes at the root of Disease by purifying the blood, restoring the liver and kidneys to healthy action, invig orating the nervous system. RELIABLE EVIDENCE. MR. H. H. STEVENS:- Dear Sir—l will most cheerfully add my testimony to the great number you have already received in favor of your great and good medicine, VEGSTINE, fur Ido not think enough can be said in its praise, for I was troubled over thirty years with that dreadful disease, Catarrh, and had such bad coughing spells that it would seem as though I could never breathe any more, and VIGETINZ has cured me ; and I do feel to thank God all the time there is so good a medicine as TEGETINE, and I also think it one of the beet medicines for coughs and weak sinking feelings at the stomach, and advise everybody to take VSGETINE, for I can assure them it is one of the best medicines that ever was. MRS. L. GORE, Car. Magozinc and Walnut SL,., Cambridge, Mass. THOUSANDS SPEAK, VEGETINE is acknowledged and recommended by physi cians and apothecaries to be the best purifier and cleanser of the blood yet discovered, and thousands speak in its praise who have been restored to health. REPORT FROM A PRACTICAL CHEMIST AND APOTHECARY. • Dear Sir—This is to certify that I have sold at retail 154 t/., dozen (1852 bottles) of your VEGETINE since April I'2, and can truly say that it has given the beat sat isfaction of remedy for the complaints for which it is re commended that I ever sold. Scarcely a day passes with out some of my customers testifying to its merits ou themselves or their friends. I am perfectly cognizant of several cases of Scrofulous Tumors being cured by VEGE TINS alone in this vicinity. Very respectfully yours, AI GILMAN, 40S Broadway. To 11. 11. STEvEss, ESQ. YEGETINE WILL CLEANSE SCROFULA FROM THE SYSTEM. HONEST OPINION. MR. 11. R. STF.VINS Dear Sir—This is to show that my eon was taken sick in January, 1164, with scrofula, which came out in large sores and ulcers on his lege and hip. His leg was swelled more than twice its natural size. lie bad several doctors of high standing in their profession—two from Bosten and three from Charlestown—without getting a bit better. He was obliged to lie wherever he was placed, for he had no use of his limbs whatever. When we had given up all hopes of his living we were told to try VEG.TINZ, the great blood remedy ; and he had taken it but a short time before we could see a great change. The sores run so bad that we had to change the cloths four or five times a day.— Still, he was getting better ; for he could move his limbs and help himself a little. He was soon able to sit up in bed, and, by constant use of VIP - MINE, it has cured him.— Ile has a lame leg, which he will probably have fur life ; but we all honestly believe, if we had used VEGETINE before we had bothered with those doctors, it would have saved the use of his leg, and restored it to natural health. I hope all these troubled with Scrofula will read this ten timoney of me and my sun, who is now well, and able to speak for himself. CATHARINE MAHONEY, DANIEL MAHONEY, 19 Trenton St., Charlestown, Mass. May 10, 1072. The above plain but honest statement conclusively shows the quick and thorough cleansing effects of the VEGETINE in Scrofula.

SOMETHING OF INTEREST TOTHE OLD FOLKS, ANDITO THE BOYS AND GIRLS. THE BOSTON .JOURNAL. in a recent issue says: "Picture to yourself what a magazine for children ought to be—how bright and winning in contents, how pure and stimulating in teaching, how resplendent with pictures, and then turn over the pages of St. Nicholas, and you will find your ideal realized." THE CHICAGO INTER—OCEAN:isays: St. Nicholas is an institution of which Young and Old America are as proud as England is of Punch. A house without St. Nicholas," continues the writer, "does not deserve to own any buys and girls; no dog should wag its little tail while pres sing its noise through the area railings, empha tically, we would observe that should the sun Cost - &send to shine upon that house, his solar majesty would make a big mistake." The first volume of St. Nicholas was a surprise even to the public that heartily welcomed it. num ber by number. Newspaper critics expressed en thusiastic approval ; children and parents were alike delighted, and congratulatory letters from distinguished men and women Poured in upon the sublishers and editors, CHARLES DUDLEY WARNER wrote: "I do not see how it can be made any better, and if children don't like it, it is time to change the kind of children in this coun try ;" WHITTIER, our great poet, wrote: "It is little to say of this magazine that it is the best child's periodical in the world;" and words of hearty commendation came across the ocean from such earnest workers and popular favorites of the young as GEO. MACDONALD, CHRISTINA ROSSETTI, and CANON KINGSLEY. Beautifully bound, superbly illustrated, and filled with good things from the best writers (in cluding three long serial stories,) the first volume of St. Nicholas, complete in itself, is a finer Christ mas gift for girls and boys to-day than any single book in the market, excepting Which, with its magnificent pictures, its two com plete serials, and its innummerable shorter sto ries, sketches, poems, fairy tales, rhymes and jin gles, bits of wisdom, its French, German and Latin stories—its fun and its pussies, Jack-in-the pulpit, the Letter-box, &C., &c., is even more su perbly attractive. ST. NICEIOLAS for 1874 and 1875, 4 For the convenience of libraries, and because many children find the two large volumes for '74 and '75 rather bulky to handle, we have hod these twenty-four numbers bound in FOUR ELE GANT VOLUMES, and inclosed in a neat box, under th) general title of THE ST. NICIIOLAS LIBRARY. These four volumes are sold for LS, being only two dollars a volume—a beautiful and valuable Christmas present for an entire tamily of young folks. THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE says "In the avalanche of immoral literature that threatens the children, some strong, vitally wholesome, and really attractive magazine is required for them, and St. Nicholas has reached a higher platform, and commands for this service wider resources in art and letters, than any of its predecessors or contemporaries." THE SUNDAY—SCHOOL TIMES says: "A cleaner, purer, more trustworthy periodical for children, cannot be named. The magazine does not claim to be religious, but it is on the side of all that is true and good, from beginning to end." The religious press all over the country heartily commends ST. NICHOLAS, and virtually echoes the opinion of the New York Christian Union, that it is" A DELIGHTFUL MAGAZINE FOR ALL CHILDREN BETWEEN FIVE AND EIGHTY SEVEN." Promises even greater attractions than the pre; vious volumes. A strong feature of the new vol ume is an AMERICAN SERIAL SKORY, "THE BOY EMIGRANTS,"BYNOAH BROOK Y, Giving the adventures of a party of boys on their long journey across the plains, with a vivid por traiture of their LIFE IN CALIFORNIA DUlt- ING TIIE DAYS OF THE GOLD-FEVER. Mr. Brooks brings to this work, in addition to his well known literary gifts, a thorough familiarity with the features of that wild country and the people then flocking toward it. What he has to say of them is pervaded with a subtle and intense savor of reality that enables the reader to follow the characters in their adventures with a positive sense of companionship. The contagion of the "gold-fever ;" the great difficulties and perils which beleaguered their journey across the plains and mountains, and finally the adventurous, half civilized, and yet, in a certain rude way, poetic life in the mines of California, aro all described with wonderful truthfulness and skill. Add to this the elevated tone pervading the work, and the irresistible attraction wnich such a narrative pos sesses for boys, the value of this stirring, healthy serial becomes evident. There is to be another and shorter serial, begin ning in January and running through three nutn hers : "JON OF ICELAND," BY BAYARD A delightful vivid story of an Icelandic boy's career, full of incidents, which would happen in no other country, and graphically touching upon the customs, life, and general features of that strange land. TIIE BEST GENERAL READDIG for boys and is insured by a list of present and promised contributors, among whom are : William Cullen Bryant, George .Mac- Donald, Christina Rossetti, Louisa colt, J. T Trowbridge, T. B. Aldrich, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Abby Morton Diaz, Harriet Prescott Spo f ford, Donald G. Mitchell, H. H, Edmund C. Stedman, Lucy Larcom, Charles Dudley Warner, Bret Harte, Frank R. Stockton, Eliza beth Alters W Higginson, Lucre tia P. Hale, Prof R. Proctor, Mrs. Oliphant and Rev. Edward Eggleston. Special papers are secured or promised, viz.; Astronomy for Young Folks (Prof. Proctor) ; Chapters en Windsor Castle and English History (Mrs. Oliphant) ; Talk With Girls (Mrs. A. D. Y', Whitney, H. H., Louisa M. Alcott, Susan Cool idge and Mrs. Dodge); Little Housekeepers' Pages (Marion Harland, author of "Contmon Sense in the Household"). Also, Incidents of American History, Practical Handwork for Boys and Girls, Sketches of Adventure and Travel, Fairy Tales, and Stories of Home Life. A Young Contributors' department is to be added to the well-know and approved Regular Features ; and in short, the Magazine will be made as useful, lively, and en tertaining as the purest and best writers and ar tists can make it. Some of the Finest Works of the Great Painters have been engraved for St. Nicholas, and its il lustrations fur 1876 will surpass anything ever yet attempted in Juvenile literature. 83 00 A YEAR ; $4 FOR BOUND VOLUME.
