the gittmm Department. Crops in Butler County. Within the last three weeks vre have conversed with intelligent far mers from nearly every section of the county, concerning the crops; and from their testimony we glean the following facts : —Whcftt is somewhat injured by the weevil—some fields will not pay for harvesting ; but when we take into . account the great breadth of land sown, there will be as much if not more wheat in the coun tv than there was last season, live,was never better than the present crop. Oats and corn promise a very heavy yield ;—Grass and clover are exceed ingly heavy ; and if farmers can only sucecd in gettiug up their harvests, they will have an abundance for home consumption, and some to spare. So far, we have had very backward weather for harvesting, and in con nection with this, labor is hard to be procured, this has called into requisi tion a great amount of machinery which will U) a very great extent ob viate the difficulty with regard to the scarcity of hands. Taking all things into consideration we have great renson to be thankful to the Dispen ser of a'l our temporal blessings.— We are promised "seed tiuie and har vest"—the promise is "sure" if we use proper diligence, judgment and economy, wo shall succeed. GARDENS FOR CHILDREN.—A Michigan lady thus sensibly pleads the cause of the young people : "A great deal can be done to en courage horticultural tastes and in dustrious habita in children. Why don't farmers fence oft' little gardens for their larger boys and girls, ami allow them to have all they raise from them ? Put. agricultural papers in their hands, and encourage them to try eTcperiments in wheat growing, cultivating seedling fruits, &c. Put ft good magnifying glass into their handß ; that they become acquainted with their friends and enemies. To those old enough to cultivate, or what would sometimes perhaps be better, let them earn money in some way and purchase them for themselves.— Don't tnrn them off with an Isabella grape when it will not ripen for you; let them have a Delaware or a Concord, that they may be more sure of a re turn for their labors. So of straw berries an# ether things. Excite in them a desire for excelliug in rais ing fine fruits and vegitables. Let them get up children's agricultural /airs, and horticultural societies for drscussion, &c. Don't you think the agricultural papers will be studied, if you will raise a family of well informed men and women ? So of domestic animals: If you have a boy a dozen years old, give him a yoke of calves to train ; give the girls lambs, and let them have the fleeces as a reward for good care, or allow them to raise some good cows for themselves. Children need objects of love, and incentives ■to faithful labor, and they will love home all the more if you attach them to it by pleasant memories, and good, hind instruction." Well said. The Crops, now being or Irtely harvested, to jjidge from the reports from almost every grain and grass growing State in the Union, have never been excelled- The damage douc to the wheat by the weevil p-oves to bo local only—that is, in limited sections, and not to any ap preciable extent, gives every promiso of a full yield. The breadth of land planted with corn, in the late rebel lious States js very large, and that ,of wheat proportionably small, owing to the circumstances that the cessation of hostilities took place rather to late for the one, but in good time for the other.—We have a letter from a friend in the interior of Berks county, this State, which states that the hay •nad wheat eruld not be better—the weather fine, and plenty of hands for the work of securing the harvest. JCE.O» NEWS. —Cartful reports of the condition of the crops in Illinois and lowa have been prepared. From these reports we learu that the wheat crop, though a failure in some locali ties, will be more than an averoge yield, and of good quality. It is be ing harvested in goodc endition.— Oats, rye and hay promise well.— Corn is backward, but thrifty. In Northern lowa the tremendous rains, in the latter days of June, washed out the corn, and there the crops will be almost an entsre frilure.— The potato, in lowa, is ruined by the bug. We hear no complaints of its ravages in Illinois. Fruit promises a fair yield, perches in particular, of which there will be a great abund ance. The apple crop will be but of fair quality. Of sraalj fruits there is a generous supply. 4 'THEY. SAY. —"They" will say any thieg and everything. "They" have Baid every thing mean and despicable. "They" say things that break up crush hearts, blight hopes, ' and smother worthy aspirations. Whenever a man circulates a slander, said gives "They" as his authority, turn your back upon him: he .is no good. _ To dream gloriously, you must <act gloriously while you are awake; and to bring angels down to converse with you in your sleep, you must la bor in the cause of virtue during the 4ay. <£rtucatitmat Jlrpartiuciit THOUGHTS ON TEACHING. At the risk of being thought extreme subjective in all that I have to say, may I not ask if teachers of youth are not too remiss in not striving to keep before them some.particular end or object, in the ed ucation of those entrusted to their care? In almost every department of mechan ical labor, the workman labors with some definite end in view. lhe ship-builder adds timber to timber, meanwhile keep ing in sight the noble vessel, which shall some day ride proudly upon the sea, and bid defiance to winds and wavos. The mechanic constructs the ponderous ma chine which is to be the motive power among many others, with an eye to the fitness of one part to another It is related of Tubonius, one of Lu ther's early teachers, that upon entering the room where his pupils were, he was wont to take off his hat and bow to them, lie did this, he said, because he saw in them, not merely boys, but the burgo masters the lawyers and the doctors of the future. Would it not be well if teach cars were tfl imitate his example in theo ry, especially as in our land, places of the highest trust are equally attainable by all? But teachers arc far too prone to in dulge themselves iu their love ol ease. For instance; a child to the teac h er, requesting help to solve a problem in arithmetic. The principle involved had been sufficiently explained before the class, but the pupil's attention was direc ted elsewhere. The teacher helps him, thereby confirming the pupil in his hab it of inattention. Another pupil wishes to know the location of a Certain town. Instead of setting the pupil to work to find out for himself, the teacher at once gives him the desired information, and thus loses the opportunity of teaching the pupil the habit of applying the mind to study. A petty theft may have been committed. A slate-pencil has been ta ken from its rightful owner; or perhaps in passing to or from school, fruit has been taken from a farmer's wagon. A passing reproof will be administer, but nothiug will be said of the sin yr guilt of such conduct. It is not merely the teacher's duty to enter upon a routine of' lessons in the alphabet, reading, writing, geography or arithmetic; but he should strive to teach habits of diligence, patience, perseverance and punctuality; in short everything tha will contribute to the usefulness of tho pupil in acting his part in life. Some one has said, " Labor for com pleteness of character." I would say to teachers, labor not only for it, yourself, but labor to produce it in your pupils. As the teacher is necessarily brought into contact with so many various dispo sitions and shades of character, he will naturally find some difficulty in adapting himself to the peculiarities of (ftclj. Some will nwl retraining, while others will need constant urging, liutall faults should be gently and patiently borne with except the one great fault of disobe dience in any form. L«t it at once be distinctly understood, that you mean just what you say, and that you iuteqd to take no wavering vacillating course. Children arc generally, pretty keen judges of character. They will at once sec that you intend to be obeyed, and they will respect you the more highly for your firmness. Still it should be the teacher' aim, to rule by love and kindness rather than severity. Strive to impress on the minds of your pupils, that you do not punish merely fur the sake of the punishment itself, but for its wholesome effect upon themselves. Let the punish ment be at all times proportionate to the offence. As far as my experience goes, 1 think that teachers are less apt to err in this respect than most parents. I have known parents to fly. into a passion and flog a child severely, for only tearing a" garment, or accidently breaking a di.-h; witeii perhaps profane language or an act of wilful disobedience would go entirely napu^shed. It U almost neodless to add that person, al feelings of ill-will should not on any account ever be allowed to dictate the manner or measure of punishment. A candid and well balanced wind will not find it difficult to dccide*upon tlve coui'sc which will prove most beneficial for the pupil. As was before remarked, the teacher will be brought into. ooutact with many various dispositions. lie will need to Btudy them closely, so as to adapt him self. to each one. A mode of punish ment which will prove efficacious iu one easp, would not answer, at all, in another. A few words kindly spoken in private, to one, will be amply sufficient. Another will regard as a great punishment, a few minutes a/ter school. Corpo al punishment, should be resorted to as rarely aajjossible. I have known sonic .of the most-unmanageable, obstinate' and boys'baeome boys'baeome quiet, djMpe and obedient a course ou ed kindness and atteutiou to the3^'|titer es ts, Such boys are compldfcH&rora out by au appeal to tlv;ir ■sense of honor.
