"When breakfast was over they prepared

on thick soled boots, as - their mother had
.requested them to do. When they were
quite, ready they went , to their . mother's

" Just then, through an opening in the

the grass; some of the girls wore wreaths,
and others were making wreaths; while
the boys were gathering flowers with which
to decorate them.

,The

that, instead of releasing alarge number: of

hoped one year.ago—itis -likely to call to

as has been thii case heretOfore,. be .
largely taken, from the .producing,. elaSs.
And while .there is as:.earnest, a-- demand
upon the,farmer.to plant and sow asaarge
ly as. at any former-period, in the history of
the rebellion, the help ttpbil which he was
depending„to, perform this work will, in
part, be transferred.to other fields; of. labor.
What shall , make up this deficiency? = How
can the labor of- our farms he perforniedi
kortnnately; the use 'of. machinery, which
will. be, brought.more largely into requisi

of farm-work which cannot be greatly for

on farms , improved implements and
machines „are now,.. to be found, and it may
be. deemed advisable for those who cannot
buy, a-mower, or‘ some equally costly ma-
chine, to hire one for the purpose of_ doing

also, lie,well,:for -some one to i purchase, a

neighbors who live at .:reasonable distances
apart can ~exchange, and in -that-way per
form the heaviest part of their werk arid
there are inany ',piing men under. twenty,
who Cana most kinds of farm-latter, perform

In fattening , Cattle aud..shoep, or *leer

advantage of high feeding. _A large amount
of 'food is required to keep the- animal
alive, and the milk or i flesh and fat which
we obtain is derived from the fbodziwnin.
excess of this quantity.- .If a horse will
draw a ton, and the empty wagon. weighs
15 cwt., we can only take a load of s'.ewt.;
but.attach.-anotherlorsutand.we.can.taketa
load of 25 cwt. luother words, the effec

as much as the one.
It is so in feeding milch.cows and in fat

them fai,,is manifettly absurd, and to give

and thtis, only get a little fat; is also very',
poor economy, when by a few pounds more
food we might double or treble the amount

The Rev. Dr. ALDEN, late President of Jefferson
proposes to give a course of Instruction to a elate of
"guiles who have finished their School Education. lie wdl
meet the Class one hour a day, four days in the week, froe,
the first of November to the first of May. No text-book, e
be used; but, in connexion with the discussion of topic;
references will bemade to.the best authors, for the b, n oi t
those members of the class who have leisure for reaqi n ,
The course will be conducted in such a manner, that
who can command one hour daily, can secure all ite
tages. Dr. A: will endeavor, by questionings and oral di.-
cussione, to lead his pupils to perceive truth for thernso!'o. r ..
An experience of more than a quarter of a century spout
teaching, has convinced him that be can best benefit his p, ; -
pile by placing them face to face with truth, without the
agency of books. Words cannot, then, be easily tni s u,k,
is
for things.
Special attention will be given to the expression of tit
ought
by word and pen.
It is presumed that the members of the proposed elsim
have acquired, from the study of books, such a ds•gree ~f
mental discipline and such a knowledge of facts as will no
der them prepared'for the higher grade of instruction suited
to the most advanced Clain in college.
The fallowing subjects will receive attention:
1. Isermasorusi, Pumosomrr.
