Deep Plowing.
Some twenty years ago there was a
mania among the age icultural theorists fcr
deep plowing. Every farmer, it was said,
had a farm under his lands of great value,
where the plow had not yet reached. No
matter what the characters of the surface
and the subsoils were, the plow should go
into its beam. Bat these men are begin
ning to get their eyes opened. Mr. George
E. Waring, Jr., in speaking of the results
often years' management of "Ogden Farm' ,
in
. the Agriculturist, says : "About six
acres were some seven or eight years ago,
plowed about twelve inches deep. The
subsoil of blue clay, which was brought to
the surface, was a lasting injury to the
laud.. It still shows the ill effect of the
treatment in spite of time and manure
Certainly in this ease—and I think imlny
other similar instances could he found—
deep plowing was a grave mistake, and it
will be well for all enthusiasts who are
disposed to follow the extreme theories of
deep plowers, to study very cautiously the
character of the subsoil which they intend
to bring to the surface. I confess to hav
ing been an advocate of these theories for
mat!) , years, and I have seen them sustain
ed on certain soils, but I have slowly coma
to the belief that it is usually the safest
plan to leave the surface soil where nature
made it, and where she always keeps it in
her most fertile forests and fields.
There are some soils that would be benc
fitted by plowing twelve inches deep, but
they are scarce " The rule may be said
to be : "never turn. up over one or two
inches of unfertile subsoil in one season ;
and when so turned up the land should
receive a dressing of manure."
How a Vicious Horse was Subjugated.
The horse is a thoroughbred, au im
ported Irish Harkaway, long famous as
the Galway "orcss.country horse," but the
virtues of which breed are slightly vitiated
by an uncontrollable desire to eat a groom
on the half shell before starting out. This
horse had fits of madness, and what ren
dered these fits more undesirable was the
fact that there could be no authoritative
computation of the time of their return.
On the occasion of one of these fits his
keeper was seized by a happy thought.
He had just burned his mouth by trying
to eat one of the insufficiently cooled pota-
kies which he had roasted fur his matuti
, 1 meal. He thought it would be better
r the horse, perhaps, and certainly for
mself, if he could fool his Harkaway
-- eonntryman upon an incandescent vegeta.
rian breakfast. As the horse advanced
gierefore to eat him, he threw into his
„,,th a red-hot potato. The effect wa s
yvelous, and the attention of the Rareys
id Trapp is called to the result. The
tree bit into the potato, and all his atten
was immediately given to getting the
a fodder out of his mouth. The result
this operation was that the horse was
.. only cured crf his biting propensities,
'the never afterward attempted to injure
one by his old methods of crowding,
'eking with his hind feet or striking with
*- fore feet. He became, indeed, a more
iletely tamed animal than was ever
~,,. result of the drugs of threy or the
~... hobbles of Trapp, his only known
ritability being a dislike for roasted pots
for breakfast.

"Only Waiting."
[An aged man in an almshouse was asked
what he was doing now. He replied, "Only
waiting."]
Only waiting till the shadows are a little longer
grown ;
Only waiting till the glimmer of the day's last
beam is flown ; •
Till the night of earth is faded from the heart
once full of day ;
Till the stars of heaven are breaking through
the twilight soft and gray.
Ouly waiting till the reapers have the hiF.t
sheaf gathered home;
For the summer time is faded and the autumn
winds haVe come,
Quickly, reapers, gather quickly, these last
ripe hours of my heart,
For the bloom of life is withered, and I hasten
to depart.
Only waiting till the angels open wide the
mystic gate,
At whose feet I long have lingered, weary,
poor, and desolate.
Even now I hear the footsteps, and their voices
far away ;
If they call me I am waiting. only waiting to
obey.
Only waiting till the shadows are a little longer
grown ;
Only waiting till the glimmer of the day's last
beam is flown ;
Then from out the gathered darkness holy,
deathless stars shall rise,
By whose light illy soul shall gladly tread its
pathway to the skies.
The Valley of Humiliation.
John Bunyan says very truly that the
valley of Humiliation ii a difficult valley
far a pilgrim to get into. It has a bad
nawc, which it does not deserve, and there
are many who will avoid it if they can.—
But when one contentedly goes down into
it and tarries there, he finds with every
advancing day increasing peace. It is a
pleasant valley, and very fruitful, too, for
flowers and fruits abound. There men
have found pearls, and have heard the
voices of angels. Lilies are thick, and the
shepherd boy who, "wears more of that
herb called heart's ease in his bosom than
he that is clad in silk and velvets," is
heard singing sweetly :
"He that is down needs fear no ;all;
lie that is low no pride ;
He that is humble ever shall
Have God to be his guide."
We wish that all of cur readers woul3
fall in love with this valley. Pitch your
tents within it, for it is a bright, sunny
spot, and the winds do not blow roughly.
You will live a happy life, and a 'useful
one; and the smile of God. which is better
than the applause of men, will forever rest
upon you.
Do you not often get weary, dear friend,
in the locg and constant struggle to be
come somebody in the world ? Perhaps
you are trying to get a certain position in
society, or trying to keep a certain position
which you have already gained. The
struggle is a hard, and it may be, a vain
one. Oh, this frantic effort to "keep up
appearances?" Why do you spend your
strength for naught ? Do not hate ob
scurity as though it were a sin ; but retire
from the social gaze, if needs be, without
a murmur. If the little world of which
you formed a part ceases to chatter about
you, what does it matter ? The smile of
God and the approbation of a good con
science outweigh the babble of mankind.
So if you have not strength of wing to fly
to the topmost branch, then rest upon a
lower branch and chirp as gaily as any
bird of richer plumage which looks down
upon you from a loftier peach.
You have lost money lately and must
retrench expenses; then do so without
a constant groaning. Say a cheerful good
bye to accustomed luxuries, and be
for your many comforts. Very likely you
are better off than you deserve to be. You
are not yet as the Master was who "had
not where to lay His head." Away with
boasting and with pride ! Oh, creature of
a day, why is it your paltry ambition to
he as well off as other people—or better off
than they ? Why are you anxious to have
them notice you or praise you ? Think of
God and of duty, and quietly, yet grandly,
so live that the work of each day way be
well and faithfully done. Do not rate
yourself, and do not be at all anxious that
others will put the proper mark of value
upon your God. Fix your gaze upon the
judgment throne, and let the thought of
that great and solemn day when you must
render up your anal account chasten and
subdue your haughty spirit.
Be not afraid to dwell in the valley of
Humiliation. Jesus, when He was on
earth, dwelt there; and in it you may do
in peace and quietness a better and a more
enduring work than is done by those who
dwell in high places. Obscurity is not a
bar to usefulness, and humility does not.
hinder a man from doing good. The flow.
er blooms, and the bird sings in the shady
glen. If iu a quiet, humble way you lead
a godly lite and do what good you can•
though unnoticed by the world, you will
not lose a great reward.
The Personal Appearance of Jesus.
A correspondent of the Washington
Chronicle writes :
"On Sunday last, Rev. Dr. Newman de
livered a discourse upon the humanity of
Jesus Christ, in which he stated that noth
ing had been handed down to us in regard
to His personal appearance, many d'ffer
ent views being entertained on the subject.
Enclosed you will find a letter written by
Publius Lentullus, President of Judea,
and sent by him to the Senate of Rome,
when the fame of Jesus began to spread
abroad in the world. These are his words :
'There fives at this time in Judea a
man of singular virtue, whose name is
Jesus Christ, whom the barbarians esteem
a prophet, but his own followers adore him
as Lhe offspring of the immortal God. He
calls back the dead from their graves, and
heals all sorts of diseases with a word or
a touch ; he is tail and well shaped, of an
amiable, reverend aspect ; his hair is a
color that can hardly be matched, falling
into-graceful curls below his ears, and very
agreeably touching on his shoulders, part
ed on the head like, the Nazarites; his
forehead is smooth and large; his cheeks
without other spot. save that of a lovely red ;
his nose and mouth formed with exquisite
symmetry ; his beard thick, and of a color
to suit the hair of his head, reaching an
inch below his chin and parting in the
middle like a fork; his eyes bright, char
and serene. He rebukes with majesty,
consoles with mildness ; his whole address,
whether in word or deed being elegant
and grave. No man has seen him laugh
but he has wept frequently. He is very
temperate and wise; a man, for his excel
lent beauty and divine perfection, surpass
ing the children of men.'"

Dear Sir.—About one year since I found myself in a
feeble condition from general debility. VEGETINE was
attongly recommended to me by a friend who had been
much benefited by its use. I procured the article, and,
after using several bottles, was restored to health, and
discontinued its use. I feel quite confide ut that there is
no medicine superior to it for those complaints fur which
it is especially prepared, and would cheerfully recom
mend it to those who feel thatthey need something to re
store them to perfect health.
