News of the 25tli of September is an account, of the resignation of Elder J. V. Beekm.au as pastor of a cTntreTiTn that village. Tor some lime past rtlie reverent! gentleman's habits have hefui stteh as to cause g.eat grief to his friends and bring reproach upon the church. Aj the close of the sermon, which was preach ed hv a neighboring pastor, Elder Beckman mazle the following address, which we give as a wattling to, all nip!!, both young and old, to avoid the sin and shame which have come u]inn this man: Asa man 1 have the highest conception as to what the life aw! character of a min ister of the Gospel should he. 1 know that lie should lean a consistent and an upright life that can he looked to by the community as an example of purity anti righteousness. Knowing that niv life lias not been such in all respects, I desire to tender to this church, for which I have labored so long, my resig nation. You are aware that I refer to my sin of intemperance. This may he my last op portunity of addressing you, and I want to ask you that you will not charge tLis great shame in the religion of Christ. It teaches, better things. Charge it all to my own (iepravjty and sinful nature. To you who haue not this habit it, Is strange that 1 should ti ns yield to temptation. I well re member the time x-lien I thought it strange that .others Mra'ik and ruined themselvis with alcohol. lam glad that there are so many younemen here this moaning, that I jnn.v lifT my voice in warning aud beg them to profit by example. You think now you rive strong and in no danger. I well re member the time when I believed the same. Twelve years ago, when I reach' and forth my j inexperienced hand and took the intoxioat- I ing cup. 1 thought I was strong; but I de ! velnped a habit that now holds me in chains, and in the most awful slavery that humani ty was e e subjected to, It holds me in its embrace when I seek my bed for Depose; it disturbs my dream* during the weary lioTirs of rifght. SmT -'-r/i - fit■- ,rri T~ I when I rise up in the morning to enter upon , the duties of the day. Profit, oh' p''ofit tig mv example. ee wha 1 it has done for tne. There was a tin! eivben Tstood as fair as any minister of th“ Church in IlUnois; there was a time when I had as bright prospects and as cheering hopes for the future as anv of mv classmates But now they are all gone be cause of intemperance. O! that I oonld bring the whole world to hear my warning voice. Young ladies, you can do much to remove thi- curse from the world by no' countenancing jtj uge among your com panions. Prelhven, I sever mv connection with von as vottr pastor with a sad heart. It would he sa l under the most favorable chettm stances. lint much more so as it is. But. I shall remain with you in the church and ta bor in the community for a livelihood; I will come to your social meetings, anil work with von in your Sunday school, and will do al l I can to atone for the great, sin I have e >mmltted. (foil knows I do not wish to injure n : s cause. Pray for me that i may yet over come this besetting sin. I trust that I slial* be able to conquer. Hut should Igo down i under the withering influence, I ask that I you remember me kindly. Whenever vou meet me. and under what circumstances, remember there was a time when you were proud of me. But t reat me as you may ac towards me as v< it choose, I beg that you will remember my wife kindly. I) J not give her pain and sorrow because of my ! wrong doing. Poor woman, she has al ' ways suffered enough. I married her a sweet and innocent girt. She has been a ’ patient and faithful wife. Again I ask tha* 1 Vi,u will kindly remember iny wife and [children. Fall filming. We do not recommend that fall plow ing he lb ne indiscriminately. The proper tin e to pli w must he determined by the intelligent farmer. Il thegroun i is lying in sward, and the plowing can he dpue early in the fall while the weather is yet warm, .so that the sod will mu rot in order that the decaying vegetable matter can be readiiy assiilli lated by the crop that is to laised oi the laud, it will be of immeuso advaut age. If. on the other hand, the plow ing is delayed, the sod will m t rut, and the desired benefit will nut be obtained. The greates advantage, arising from p owing naked fallows in the tall, es pecially where the soil is of a compact l clayey nature, is, that aiore ol the sub soil can be sslely plowed up. and the action of the frost, sun and air during the winter npun it. will disintegrate th particles of the soil, and render them available as plant food. Lastly, it is particularly beneficial to fall plow where the soil is disposed to pack and become solid, and impervious to the action of the frost during the winter. Such a soil should be thrown into ridges or narrow lands of not more than six paces in width, and thus keep the ground comparatively free from win ter, fthith find* its way into the dead furrows. To secure the best results, the furrntoa must be kept well open at the lowest points, so that the surface waters will readily run off. Low, wet. clayey lands be pin wtw] a trifle deeper than usual, so is to brine some of the subsoil to the sur face. Land plnwodTn this way can be planted nr sown much earlier in the spring, than it otherwise could be.— Such lands should he uuderdrained as soon as practicable, for the surplus wg ter as it filters through the soil into tli? drains. not only jerate ( hut fer tilize the soil, it is an economical wav to manure heavy clay lands.— Such lands, well drained and well clovered, soon become equally valuable to the farmer as interest tearing bonds. Among the various reasons for fall plowing compact clay lands are the following ones: It loosens the soil so that the frosts of winter can penetrate it deeply; it benefits land greatly that has been previously plowed when it has been too vfet; it enables the farmer to sow or plant his spring crops earlier) and lastly, because there is usually mure leisure time for doing it. As we have already sa ; d, the farmer must be governed somewhat by circumstances— by the amount of work on hand, the eai'lirioss or lateness of the fall, and upon the nature and condition of the •■oil. All tliese things, and many more* must be carefully weighed and con sidered.— Rural World. The U. S. Fish, commission under M. J. Livingston in California, have secured nine millions of eggs, which have been distribut ed to different states, provision has been made to supply the waters of every state. ■ The great o’J carrimtionUt Zank fU.-r.ev** tins neon appointed to a seat in Grant’s cab inet, “birds of a feather etc. The estate of sewing machine Isaac M, Singer amounting to some $13,0®0,000 has a fair prospect of being divided among thg Lawyers.
