Thoughtful Thoughts.
No man who is fit to live need fear to
die; Poor faithless souls that we are.
How shall we smile at our -vain alarm
when the worst has happened ! , To us
Death is the most terrible word we know.
But, when we have tasted its reality, it
will mean to us birth, deliverance, a new
creation to ourseh es. It will be what
health is to man. It will be what home
is to the exile. It will be what the loved
one gives back to .the bereaved: . As we
draw near to it a solemn gladness should
till our hearts. It is God's great morn
inglighting up the sky.
•
A'YYREAT deal has been said and writ—
ten concerning the pleasure of memory ;
but how sad a thing it would be if we
could remember all the disagreeable epi
sodes of the past.! We should hardly be
willing to have another tooth pulled if we
remembered just how that last one hurt.
And those disagreeable things that are
.said to us—things that cut to the quick;,
and stung like a - spider's bite=wliat if 1
we must always have them fresh in finem
t,ry4., What was it that, last month,
made trouble between us and those whom
we dearly love? What was the precise
cause of that old misunderstanding with
_our best friend—that kept us awake at
night, and see,* for the time to make
life no longer worth living? And oh,
what a burden existence would become if,
we, could remember all the stupid or fOol
iali things we have said or done It is
,'sell for that we cannot remember even
1 our own thoughts.
fiEtir ENE neighborly love knows no dis
tinction of persons. It is like the sun,
which does not ask on what i 4 shall shine
orwluit it shall warm, but shines and
warms by the very laws of itaoww being.
EAcu blade of grass and humble flower
has some office to perform, and each evil
thought exerts its baleful infaence upon
-the character, while our nobler impulses,
if acted upon, make us better beings.
LITTLE things are indeed of great im
portance. All nature is made up of, par
ticles, from the tiny sparkling raindrop
that helps to form the vast and boundless
deep, to the grain of sand,_ a pqrtion of
the earth.
PALTRY affectation, strained allusioni,
and disgusting diiery are easily obtained
by thosc.!ltho wish to wear them ; they
are but to 6 frequently the hadgetof igno
rance or of stupidity, whenever it wrld
endeavor to please.
•
OrnEn men's opinions are as a mirror
in which we learn to see ourselie& It
keeps us humble. The worst slanderUrs
in it some truth from whiCh wo_may.learn
a lesson which may make us iviser when
the first smart is over.
• FLarrzawas are the worst kind of trai
tors, for they strengthen your imperf4t
thins, encourage you in all evil, .correct
you in nothing, but so ahadow you and
paint your follies and vices as you shall
never, by their wilt, clisoarei_ good bran
evil, or vice from virtue.
•,"
Oen bodies are composed of particlee
of matter, our cliarebters of little words, theughts, aid actions,•and each little 113o
meet, email as it iSirl our eyes, helps to
swell the days and years in which the
child becomes a man and the man sinks
intolhe grave.
WHAT is MOTO iletfOrTilig of our 113111-
pathl than a young man with but fifteen
cents in his pocket, a girl on: each =pp
and seven ice cnuun signs in sight? ;
"Jon was probably the tint doctor; as
he had patients." 'The assertion is cor
roborated by the fact that br, tiketither

leaf indicates `the , proper time for
`cutting. Tobacco that shows both

is a right way to do the suckering.
The shoots should not be broken off,
leaving a stem or more tbsn four
inches long in the exits of the leaves,
btu:they should be broken out, close
down to the stalk: If a stem is left,
the leavesin curing -.become folded
close around so that it is nearly
impossible to , take them off in strip
ping without tearing I them more or
less. The suckets shUuld -be picked
out clear down to the lower leaves.
In cutting tobacco tot weather

more rapidlyOoming in popular:lay.'
or and the: demand vhichi is every
where growing's9 . rapidly. is celery.
And,,Still ? there are thousands:9f g:er
dens, especially among. farmer's, in
which the first stalk of celery )s yet
to grow and the gardener has let to
learn how to .cultivate and handle
it suCcessfully.. ,
1 1 'The Manner of 'cultivating 011E1 de
licious and healthful plant has ly.'en
greatly simplified within the last few
years. It is not long since it was
supposed that to grow celery in this '
country a trench some two feet in
depth must be excavated,.' which of
Course removed all the good' sail,
which must be supplied; and - the
plants then set in the bottom so they
could be earther and the stalks bleach
ed as they grow. But few s growers
practice this laborous method now.
Celery is .naturally a salt-water plant.
thriving beet in rich, moist situation.
The sees must be sown very early.
as they are . usually three weeks, n
germinating. A cool, moist situation
should be Chosen for a seed-bed. As
the plants make but sloWgrowtb dur
ing the hot and dry summer months,
they are usually not transplanted
out until 'about the middle or last of
July.
,Hence it is Commonly made a
second crop, such as peas or potatdes.
Land which has been heavily manur- .
eel early in spring •will be in better
condition for celery thane that on
which . the manure is applied just pre
viona to setting celery plants. The
plant is a gross feeder, and requires
rich as well as moist and cool - soil.
The plants should be set in slightly
,depressed rows fully five feet apart
in the row. After the let of Septem
ber the soil must be drawn up against
them frequently enough to keep the
stalks or branches from spreading.
The more and -oftener they are. ban k
ed, Observing that the
. centrill shoot
or bud is not entirely Foreod so as
to smother it, the: better. ',Toward
the last of October a trench some
eighteen inches deep and , twelve
inches widelis prepared • in some dry
place where drainage. is perfect, so
that no water can stand in it, and
the celery isdug. and packed in up
right, as it grew, considerable soil
being left upon the roots, that they
may continue f,ce l grow BO keep
crisp. This row - is,nOw covered with
boards, and Over them a layer of ref-.
use straw or leaves to- keep out the
frost. In this way-it may be left out
over winter, if frost, water . and mice
are kept out.
There are many
.different varieties
in cultivation, yet they. do not differ
so greatly from each 'other as the
varieties of most \ vegetables. - We
think the excellence of celery de
pends more upon the care which it
receives in growing,than upon the
variety yet there are some kinds bet
ter than others.—Seedtime and liar . -
rest.
THEORY AND FACY.—The London
Times, in figuring on the cost of
raising wheat in this country, plus
its transportation to • the seaboard,
plus its shipment to . Liverpool and
changes there, gravely concludes Oat
we cannot afford to sell our wheat: in
the English market at less than fifty
shillingsL sterling for 500 lbs., and
can sell it at that, price only "under
the most atpae.4* conditions, with
very great hardsinps, with'difficulties
that cannot be removed, and risks
as great as they ever were."' As the
London quotation for American
wheat at the date this was printed,
was 44 to 45 shillings per quarter,
and aathis price was eliciting ship.
tnents unprecedently large, the facts
hardlylreem to bear out the theory
that we consider it a, very severe
"hardship," to exchange our grain
for English gold, even at a figure
'somewhat below what bad ought -to
cause us such distress.

EVIL Uturn"lt OltrtnalrAtt:—We
have the Olt repeated testimony or -
many farmers, who have tried the
experiment,. that changing the locali- - '
ty of seed utoreases the pt.odnctive. •
ness of many kinds of crogs.- Itis '
therefore re's/enable '(althongh- the .;
why and wherefore are not generally ;

equally g... if not -better results ,'
may Ist obtained by a judiciotts sys- • ,
tem of selection, culture and rotation
on different sections of the same
farm. It IS my opinion, corroborated
by, experience and obs ervation, that
.1
a system of selecting seed and plant- , !,
ins" only-the most perfect of ita kind, -
would obviate all difficulty and com
plaint of poor crops and.'seed, aria
ing front this source. For example,
in planting potatoes; plant none less - ..,

follow this with a regular rotation,

three to Sire years: Select the best,
most perfect . kernels of wheat, sow
ing only . such • Also the best and
most perfect o f, all . kinds of seeds,
taking paiiiis to.:eave from the best
representatives Of the"variety. In
stead orldeterioration, as we often
hear, improvement in *both quantity

farmers who, - ,initead of' pursuing
such a course,ti ell the best because
it brings atier price in market, ,
bt z
and then they oto others-for seed, ,
or plant such as is left...of their own
after the beit is dispo s ed of, and then .1
