CHAPTER 3rd.
’T’was odorfleJ kr noon a* *bfld,
'T'wa* morning’* winged bean:
’T’was a light that ne’er can shino again.
On life’s dull stream;
But there’s nothing half so sweet in life
As Love's young dream.
Moore.
“What a glorioua sunset! No human
artifct ever paintml a pictcre half to
beautiful. See! what « variety of
shades. Oh! I conld linger here for
ever!” The speaker clasped her pret
ty jewelled hands in an exstacy of ad-
miration, and her companion, a hand
some, evidently love stricken youth,
eagerly assented to her every proposi
tion, haviug, howover, his earnest eyaS
fastened on her animated face, instead
of “the glorious sunset.” That they
were by no means strangers to each
other one could readily see by the fa
miliar way in which he clasped her
hand in his, as he presently said: "Como
Bertie, let’s go to the brow of yonder
hill, yon can Lave a better view fiom
there, and besides you can hear the
musical, monotonous rhythm of the
river wave/”
“And I do so love to hear it, it sings
me to sleep every night. Oh! Cecil,
the last few weeks have glided by like
a happy dream, have they not?”
“Oh. 1 why are pleasant hours so short.
And why are mournful ones so long'”
quoted the young man by way of re
ply, giving her hand a tender pressure,
and bending his dark eyes on hers with
a look that spoke volumeR. Bertie—
for you have already recognized onr
little friend esssayed to return
the glance, but as his hand press
ed hers she felt the hot blood surge up
to Iher heart, and knew that her face
w»8 crimson. Her eyes faltered, and
fell abashed, but a second sqnoeae of
the little hand proved that the daring
youth had read their expression aright
Silence fell upon thorn, and “The beat*
ing of their own hearts, was all the
sound they heard.”
Love, in its early stages is not very
demonstrative; it is bliss enough to feel
the presence of the beloved one, and
silence is love’s sweetest eloquence. TJn
suspicious Mrs. Granville, a martyr to
that fashionable disease, neuralgia, did
not dream with what rapid strides they
were advancing on that perilous path.
Love! or she would have placed a veto
on those long lonely walks which Cecil
Chester, and her heirass daughter, took
so often together. Perhaps 6he thought
Bertie had a well-regulated, portaLle
heart like her own, and could place it
anywhere, where interest demanded.
Madame Granville, in her youth, might
have been safely trusted with the Apol
lo Belviuere, or the very Good of Love
himself, and her well disciplined affec
tions would have been in no danger,
unless the divinity wore a good parti.
No danger of her being led into peri
lous shoals and quicksands by romance
or sentiment. No arrow, unless jewel
tipped could have found its way to her
icy heart; and it is to be presumed the
lady judged her impassioned, impulsive
daughter by herself, for she placed do
restraint on her intimacy with Cecil
Chester, but allowed them to come and
go at will. Unsuspecting soul! she did
not dream that Cecil Chester hired a
friend to attend to his business, and
ran out to his uncle’s to “recruit bis
shattered health,” because Bertie had
con5ded to Lira the secret of thoir dess
tiuation on the eve of leaving town. It
seemed a matter of course to her, that
the young man should be a visitor at
the farm house, and she did not trouble
her head about it. She would ns soon
Lave suspected Bertie, Col. Glover’s
destined bride, of falling in love with
oib of the hired inon who worked in
old Martin Chester’s broad cotton fields
as with a poor young man, who, if he
was genteel looking, worked for a sala
ry! Poor foolish woman! ebo could not
see au inch beyond her own nose, and
when the denouement came, not one
of her aristocratic friends pitied her, but
said one, and all: “What a blind idiot!
ehe might have foreseen it from the
beginning.” “Catch me, letting my
Anna Maria become so intimate with
any man uot eligible.” "I will not al
low iny daughters to have a good look
ing Music Master said one. “Young girls
me so very foliish, there’s no depen
dence to be placed in the siliy crea
tures, whatever their station.”

Advice to the Girls.
Bo not estimate the worth of a yonng
man by his ability to talk soft nonsen»e,
nor by the length of his moustache.
l)o not imagine that an extra ribbon,
tied about the neck, oan remedy the de
fect of a soiled collar, or an untidy dress.
If your hands arc browned by labor,
do not envy the lily fingers of Miss Fass-
and-Feathcrs. whose mother drudges in
the kitchen, whi'c tho daughter lounges
in the parlor.
If your dress is inconveniently long,
and a gentlaman steps upon it, don’t be
angry, but meekly beg bis pardon, as you
ought.
Always cherish a partiality for the
smell of dish-water--it is more condu
cive to health and far less expensive than
“Bouquet of Eden.”
If a dandy, cigar between his fingers,
asks you if smoking is offensive to you,
tell him, emphatically, “yes.” The habit
should oven though the odor may
not.
Bo not pronounce a squash pie “splen
did!” Dor a pug-nosed poodle “sweet!”
nor a dish of boiled oabbage “superb.”
Bo not judge of the intelligence of a
female acquaintance by the number of
yards of trimming on her*drees.
Bo not waste your tears on the imag
inary sufferings of Alonzo and Melissa,
nor the trials of the dime novel heroines.
Seek rather to a'leviate the woes of the
suffering ones on earth.
Learu the use of darning cotton, as
well as of zephyr worsted and the tatting
shuttle.
—The science of citing «*d drinking
is one of the few tilings we all acquire
by intuition. Mankind can be divided
into two classes—“those who ear to live,
and those who live to cat ’’ The former,
of course, arc tho wisest men. These
classes are subdivided into many varie
ties.
—Be truthful cron in trifle*. A child
who deserts truth in trifles cannot be
trusted in matters ol'importance. “The
whole system of stretching, cutting,
scraping, chipping bits off, polishing,
beudiug, warping, overturning, paint
ing, coloring', whitening, or blackening
trie truth i* bad. ’
Services appropriate to New-Year’s
were held in nearly all the churches in
New-York on Su-.d*y. In most of the
Methodist churches the UMiri “watch-

continuing until after midnight, and at
tended by la-ge congregations. On
Monday, several o' the city cuthoriti-s

was madness to go to their help. At this
juncture, Samuel Tompkins, an intrep-d
navigator and man of nerve, put out. in

incfltc ual, and he came near losing bis
own life. Their dioutu ceased, but their
courage diti not fail. They worked vig
orously, end in the darkness found that
the ice had parted and they were in the
opening in cicar wat-r. They reached
the main shore below Glosser, more dead
than alive, and f and thrir way to a
friendly farm bouse. On the 30th rf
November tbeir father and mothtr came
very near losing thrir lives in a similar
manner. Crossing the Upper Ni-g*ra

Resting Land. What is it?
An Englishman, inquiring ;>f an
American ns to the featuicsnf Amer
ican agriculture, asked our rotation
ot crop*, especially at the gomli.
Hr. was told that it was ordinarily
cotton and corn until the land be
came worn, and that then it was
rested with small grain. “If you
call that rest, ’ said the Englishman,
“what do you call work? Growing
wheat, barley, oats, and rye, is the
hardest work to which we ever put
our land.” What, then, is resting
land?
Perfect rest i?, perhaps, impossi
ble in nature. Wc are not a Pan
theist. Yet there is certainly a life
apirit which pervades all nature—
animate and inanimate—and this
spirit is never absolutely at rest,
Wc call the sleep of our bodies
rest. But it is repose and not entire
cessation ol activity. The blood
courses as freely, the pulse beats as
steadily, certain of the mental facul
ties are in as incessant action while
we sleep as when we are awake.
Yet we are aroused from our
slumbers as perfectly refresh
ed as if ali our bodily pow
ers anJ mental faculties had been as
still as tl' in death. There is a con
dition of body then in which the
powers and faculties which are sub
jects ol la• igue, are quiescent while
others are active, and this combina
tion ol activity and repose is “na
ture’s sweet restorer, balmy sleep,”
giving refreshment arid new strength
to wearied man. Without it he
denies.
There is a harmony, a concord o f
the physical powers, in which they
move so well together, that the re
sult is refreshment, although these
powers may have been in quiet but
active exercise. As an illustration
we may select a shift at sea. The
wind is fair, but gentle. Her cloud
of canvass is spread. The sea is
quiet and almost mot : onless. The
passengers on board that ship, down
in her cabin, ate scarcely conscious
of motion. Yet she moves steadiiv
and even rapidly, bearing her freight
of human life and merchandize
Meadiiy towards the port for which
*he is steeling. It is the harmony
of all concurring elements which pio-
duces this result—the steady hand
at the helm, the quiet sea, the gen
tle wind, the well trimmed sails, the
sound end well compacted timbers.
This motion, which involves not a
strain, is less hurtful to the ship than
if she were lying wholly at test in
dock.
It is thus with our mother earth.
She is never at absolute rest. The
rains !a!i uomi her, and sink beneath
her surface, dissolving her elements.
The cold freezes her, an.I the #uu
of spring melts those icy bands, and
makes the Bowers to spring and the
gTass to become green and the trees
to pul on their leafy garments, and
the grains to grow for titan and
beast.
The earth is never at rest. It
might seen; to be at rest in a naked
fallow; but it is an error. The sun
and the atmosphere, a fleets her a-
hnve, and in the laboratory beneath
ibc nica! changes ever occur.
Can we produce in her a condi
tion somewhat analogous to sleep
in the human body ? Not absolute
rest, but such a ci edition of activity
as will give to her I he strength, and
vigor, and cla.-ticity, and spirits ol
the morning after a night of sound
sleep. We think it is possible.
Not by a naked fallow—which
(•imply kills noxious weeds—but
expose# the bare earth lo tire scorch
mg san.
Not by merely enclosing and al
lowing all spontaneous products to
spring and grow with-.ul check
This has been a favorable theory ot
some even eminent men—they have
held that by this process the worn
and wrarted soil might be unprov
ed and cvr-n restored toils original
fertility'. That this process is amel
iorating in comparison with irices
aant ai d hard cultivation cannot be
denied. 'The soil is benefited by
the slt'tdo ot woods aud bushes, at
midsummer, and it is rendered loose
tnd friable by turning in ‘his decay
ed vegetable ir after. The process
of improvement i» slow. This im-*
provrment is obtained at great ex
pense. The earth is filled with the
seeds of winds to annoy the farmer
in after cultivation. Marty of these
weeds draw mote from the soil than
they return to it. A crop of bushes
is as exhausting to the soil as a crop
of corn. They take rrr re from the
soil than they return to it. This is
line until they become a forest of
ful' sired*!tees. Then if the leaves
can be kept from being blown away
and they rot where they tail, a mod
erate improvement occurs. We
have been familiar villi northwest
Georgia since the Indians left it; a
period of thirty years. We nairowlv
watched the changes which have
occurred. One of these changes is
very marked. So mo of the best
lands have not hern cleared, and
have not been burned off. Iu tl esc
cases the bushes have sj rung up
and tormfed a dense thicket. When
I lifts*■ lands ate now dented tltepto-
duct is greatly inferior to the pro-
duel' of the same qualii v of hind a!
the first settIcnu nt of the counl.r>,
when the lands were rcgulaiiy
burned, and the forest, clear of aji
undergrowth, resembled a gentle-
man’s park. This fact is nt war
with theory, but it is fact neverthe
less.
An exception to the universal cor
rectness of the above remark is
found in the case of old fi< Ids grown
up with it pine thicket, after flic
tiers have grown ft) a sulhdenl size.
The improvement in these iustuuced
is marked. It is probnblv owing to j
the d>*n.«e shade by which valuable
salt? me generated in the soil, to I
the tap ro t which pomps up valu
able plant ood torn below, and t » j
the quantity of valuable ashes left i
when the brush heaps are burned. 1
But this process is too slow. It re
quires a number of fears ft> allow
the formation of a pine thicket. In
(I14 mean while accumulated” inter
est, or taxes would nearly or quite
equal the value of the lattd.
To return to the weeds, or natur
al growth in enclosing. All the
narrow l aved weed# exhaust land.
If we could make a selection ol
those broad leaved vvepds which
draw their nourishment chiefly
from the atmosphere, their growth
would be useful instead ol hurtful-
'fhis suggests a subject which no
one at the South, so far as we know,
has studied. Have we not some
broad leaved weeds, perennial, or
at least biennial, which we have
observed to improve the soil on
which they have grown, and the
seeds of which might be saved arid
sowed as a fertilizer? We all know
how rich a blackberry patch be
comes. This plant, for obvious
reason, would uot answer our pur
pose. There may be others that
will answer. Will not some in
vestigating nainds take up this
point and investigate it? The intro
duction, or rather the utilizing of a
now useless weed as a feitilizer
would lie a public benefaction.
Both the soil, climate, and the pro
ducts of the South are peculiar. We
must study these peculiarities, and
adapt our agricultute to them.
\Ve do not know of a narrow
leaved plant which materially or
rapidly improves land, A field
may lav in broom-sedge for years
and not become perceptibly better-
Turn it under and the decaying sod
will loosen the soil, but the positive
improvement is small. Grab gras?
after small grain, makes a valuable
pasture or good hay. But our opin
ion is that it lakes as much from the
land as the wheat or oats which
preceded it. Burn a crop of crab
grass just before plowing the lain 1
for corn in the winter, and ’.he ash
es will improve the next crop. Turn
the crab grass under, and the land
is indeed kept from washing by the j
mass of vegetable matter, but the i
next corn crop will be diminished.
When the grass i? well rotted, it
gives the usual benefit of decom
posed vegetable mailer.
The sod oi an old pasture if blue
grass or timothy, or herd’s grass,
turned under, improves the soil. Bui
there is the manure of the animal*
which have grazed upon it, the a-
mount of insect life destroyed by
the process, the benefit ‘ of shade,
the gradual recomposition ol vege- j
tabic matter, and the retention of |
moilure lo be considered. Hence,:
the turning over a fod of nutritious
grass has certainly important re- |
suit#. We mean lo say that #0 far i
as wc know none of the narrow
leaved plants have in themselves a !
valuable fertilizing power, but nev- !
rrlheless improve the soil in the in- '
direct ways jurat mentioned.
We know of two plants which!
have this positive, fertilizing power, j
The field pea is one of these. It is
one of those leguminous or pod bear
ings plant*, which draw more ftom
the atmosphere than from the earth.
If a piece of poor land be aided with
n little manure, especially super
phosphate of lime am! plaster, and
is then planted in peas alone, riie
pens eaten by hogs and the vines
left to rot Where they grew, and
this process i* repeated lor two or
three year?, it will be grcatlv im
proved, the increased p. rk will rc-
pav the (ost of the process.
Clover is the other improver. Lu
cerne dial's more ammonia from
the atmosphere, according to Yilie
than any other piamj. But this
plant is not considered in this con
nection, because the land must lie
alieady in high tilth t» pi educe it.
Next to Luce 1 He is clover. This
plant draws manure to the surface
in two ways, from the atmosphere
downwards, and by its tap root up
ward from below the suiface.
Hence, after clover all crops ate in
creased and the soil is improved.
This is resting land. Not by at
tempting to make it wholly idle, for
it cannot be done. Not by allow
ing it to be covered by a mix
ture of spontaneous plants, same
good and some bail. But by giv
ing it a gentle, healthful activity,
though the nudium of plants which
shall cleanse, shade, and,improve it
by bringing to it, the rich food ol
the at mosplmre, and the otherwise
useless juices of the deep subsoil.
This is the ship, making her port,
while the passengers scarcely know
jliat she is in motion. Thi# is the
healthful sleep which refreshes
wearied man. This is the rest
which gives to the tired earth new
vigor, and enables her more abun
dantly to reward the labor of the
husbandman.
In short, resting land, is the ml
tivation of those plants which posi
tively improve it.
