Amcng- the worst evils thatwekribw off
as connected with the interest of the far- change in the rotting govern on talsystems
user is the pernicious practice of burning Europe, that the,actors of:'the present
the woods. Il ls practiced to a very great drama have not as yet thought of. A mov
ement in the pine lands of Southern Geor- ^ spectacle truly is presented to us, when
cia. It often results in disastrous couse- we view the present attitude of the behger-
quences to the fencing, and sometimes ant nations, of Europe. ", Complicate, ques-
even to the houses of the farmers. Whilst wns difficult of solution follow in quick
wc write the atmosphere is. so dense with
Smoke as to so far hedim even the sun
itself, that it may be looked upon with
more ease than the tnp.on when ordinarily
bright- It is oppressive to brfeatli it, and
must be particularly so to all affected with
pulmonary complaints. But thisris. com
paratively a email matter to the pecuniary
losses which often result. We have learn
ed of two farmers in this county, who
haVe been burnt put of house and home,
one, Mr. Green Gumming,, having noth
ing left on his premises, in the shape of a
building buffhis well-curb. Many others
ers have suffered greatly in their fencing.
• he amount of injury done to the lands
themselves, by burning all 'the vegetable
and decaying matter, no pen can estimate.
We have heard of individuals who have
not only injured themselves for life by
their excessive ex.ertions to stay the rav
ages of these .fires, but in some-cases have
even,sacrificed life itself. With all these
repeated evils .staring them in the face, the
practice is still Continued. Millions of
dollars would not replace what Georgia
fanners liave lost from this cause within
the compass of a few years. The agricul
tural press, we believe, have with one
voice, condemned the practice as most per
nicious tothe land. Yet it is, continued
■with the same pertinacity as if it were a
source of unfailing income. We are
aware that these fires are often the acci
dental result of necessary burnings to get
rid of falling trees in new lands. But
these are comparatively few, as ordinarily,
in fields,- the farmer has them at com-
It is a very convenient .way for a
succession. The two leading Christian
nation^ of Europe ; leaders in intelligence,
science, in modern progress, are at war
to sustain (the Turk against a semi-barba
rous nation ostensibly,'fighting -to secure
the right of Christian worship,, of con
science, not to its subjects,, but to the ad
herents of its national faith. Whilst we
are in amaze at the strange and-eventful,
scenes, that are passing before us, and in
doubt as to what the issue may be, we are
yet confident of one thing, that there is a
Providence in the affairs of men that will
evolve in these radical, changes its own
high purposes, and that the hand of the
Master will be seen and recpgnised when
the work is accomplished'. And' as new
complications • arise,. questions that put to
defiance all human calculations, we turn
with no little satisfaction to the well estab
lished truth, that there is a God in history,
in the moral, as well as-in the natural,
world, who will overrule to the subservi
ence of its own ends, as well tbe turbu
lent passions of men, as the discordant el
ements.of nature. Diis abler visum.

I send you this to certify to you that your Extract

of the most wonderful cores on me that has ever
been performed on man. 1 hare been afflicted for
f years with eruptions on my legs and feet: :a

groin also broke out in large biles, which
much ofieusive matter, and at the Sals*

the waves, it sometimes almost sank out of
view. Never shall we forget the auxiety
with which we followed the boat. At length
it seemed to approach the distant speck, a
,motion was made, as if the men were
catching at something in the water, as if
they were pulling soinethg on board. Arid
.then the boat turned its head toward the
ship. As yet we could not see distincly
whether the hoy had been picked., up or
sunk. The boat tame alongside and' was
hoisted.up by the side of the ship, with
the hearty pulls of almost all on board.—
We were not quite sure of the result, till
we saw the mate step upon the deck, wrap
ping in strong arms a wet, shivering, al
most dead boy. Never did we experience
such feelimg of relief as at that moment.
A murmur of approbation and joy, though
almost choked with tears, ran through the
ship ; a thrill like that \ybich runs through
heaven when a human soul,- shipwrecked,
and about to perish, -is rescued and
brought back to God !
; Every man is somewhat in the situation
of Ihatboy, struggling like a strong swim

the report we also find a table giving the

of immigration .arriving in that period

Revolution—Radical Changes.
We should not be surprised if England
herself wire not on the- point of revolution.
The London times, a leading English Jour
nal speaks in no very._ measured terms
against the aristocracy and priviiedged
classes/ The cold shade of aristocracy is
over if? }fit, it says, awl nothing can gyme
■ben/■nth’ it but the offshoots of the tree itself.
The failurcs in. the Crimea are attrioutet'
tothe system of giving place - to sprigsrif
iv i bill tv in preference to worth and. merit,
in filling/mt offices both in the army and
civil list, from the ranks of the nobility
without regard to competency. Meetings
are held in true republican style denounc
ing t/iote/st/jn arid calling for a radio?.} ve-
forrii; and it will be well for England i-
reform-.eair do-it' without the lnoire radical
work of revolution. Truly we liyg i’iu
eventful times, pregnant of'change and
Signification of “Ebie.”—The ques
tion is often asked, “Why so many storms
and disasters upon Lake Erie ? Why tlie
difference between that and the other, lakes
composing the great chain between the
United States and British America?” If
is. said to bo caused by the extreme shallow
ness..of its waters,, which * are more easily
disturbed than the deep waters.of its iieigh-
bours. Hence tbe name “Erie,” an In
dian name, signifying “triad,” ‘‘the mad
lake.’-’:.- This name.is very significarit rof
the boisterous character of Lak;r Erie.

in, not.drily high terms of the general .merit
of the work but of Thomsoii’ri decided
