AN ICEBERG.
Dana, ia his “Life before the -mast,”
gi ves the following graphic.description
of an iceberg in. jie Southern Ocean :
At twelve "o’clock we went below,
and. had just gotjhrough dinner, wlien
the cook pul Lis head down the scuttU-
and told us to come on dt-ek and see
Hie finest siglit that we had fever seen.
'“Where'away, cook ?”' asked the
first man who was up. “On' the lar
board bow.” And-there lay,- floating
in the ocean,-several niiles 'off, 'an im
mense,-irregular mass, its top tind
points covered with snow, and its
centre of deep indigo color. This, was
ah. ixieberg, anjj-.of the largest size, as
one of our men said who had been in
the Northerir Ocean. As far as the
eye could reaeh, the seam every direct
lion was- o! a deep blue color, the
waves running' high and" fresh, and
sparkling in the light, and in the midst
lay 7 " this immense mountain-island, its
eftvities' and vallies thrown-into de'fep
shade, and its points and pinnacles
glittering in the sun. All hands .were
soon on deck, looking at it, and admi
ring in various ways its beauty and
grandeur. But no description ean
give any idea of -the-strangeness, splen
dor, and really,- tlie sublimity of .the
sight. .. Itsgreat size;—for it must have
•been from two to three miles in 'cir
cumference, and several 'hundred feet
in -height;" its- slow motion, as its- base
rose and. suriR" in' • the water, and its
high points-podded against the clouds;
the dashing of th^ waves upon .it,
which, breaking high with foam, lined
its 'ba-e with a white ci'ust; and the
thundering sound of the cracking of
the mass, and the breaking and tumb-,
: Jing down of huge pieces; together’
with its nearness and approach, which
added a slight elem'ent of fear—all
combined to give to it the character
of true sublimity. The -main body of
the mass was, as I have said, off an in-
.digo .cclor^its base crusted wlthfrozen
foam ; and as it grew thin and trans
parent toward the edges and top, its
oolor shaded off from a deep blue .to
tlie whiteness, of snow. . It seemed to
be-drifting slowly’foward the north, s.o
t\at we kept away and avoided, it. It
was in sight all tlie afternoon ; and
when we got to leeward of it,-the wind
died away, so that we lay-to quite
near it far-a gfeater part of the night
Unforf-unately, .there was no. moon,
but it. was a clear nighty and we- could",
plainly mark the long regular heaviug
oFthejriftss, as its.edges moved "slowly
againstthe stars.’ Several times’ ih our
watch loud cracks.were heard* which
sounded aa-tbongh they must mo the
whole length of- the iceberg, and seye-
^.ynuiiv* Q - O ^
sprung up, and" we filled aVay and left
jt astern, and at daylight it was.out of
sight.
TAKE CARE O E YOUR MOTHER,
v Another incident has been related
.which is. highly creditable to Nicholas.
■Passing; . on a water’s, evening, .by
one of the guardhouses in St. Petfeis-
burge, he had curi-sity to _ see what
was going on in the interior. The
officer on duty was seated near a table
tranquilly, sleeping, but with *helmet
on^swordat His -side, and aceoutre-
mefits irreproachable. The Emperor
m’adfe a sign to the sentirial to let- him
fenter, and approaching the table, he
perceived on. it a paper,, on which the
following memorandum was^jFfittfe'n;

question terminated' the account; and
Hie offiefer, unable to find ah}’ answer
had fiillen asleep with the pen in his
hand. The Emperor approached
him, and having’ recognised . one. of
tlie best conducted amongst Tjis guards
took the pen gently and wrote beneath
the appalling question the significant
name of “Nicholas.”' He then
quietly withdxgw without awakening-
the officer,'or having been seen by any
other ot the soldiers on guard. The
surprisfe of the guardsman may be
imagined, who, on awaking found the
Emperor’s signature on the paper be
fore him, and learned the misterious
visit' with which he had been .favored.-
The next morning, to’ life farther sur-
pr'ise and delight, lie was presented
bv an'ordyHy,’ v.oth a . letter from
Nicholas, jn which he was adrhonish-

BOOK FARMING.
Theworld fe full of “old fogies”—
ultra, cpnservatiye ftien, who worship
the shadowy phantom of the past, aud
maintain a haughty contempt for th«
-things of the present. They obstin
ately shut their eyes to the modern
revelations of science and philosophy,
and cling with unbending tenacity to
the manners, customs and opinions of
their great grandfather. They love old
things because they arc old. They
sliuirrailroHda atul steamboats ss in—
"venlions of the devil, pref- rrir^ to
trust Ybe old grey mare of their fathers,
rattier than foster modern enterprise.
Of all the “old fogies” in the world,
the “old fogy” farmer is most unrea
sonable, and the njost intolerable
clog to the wheels of progress. The
art of the former is 4 eihinently oneof pro
gress, ' Mechanical ingenuity and sci
entific discovery have largely contri
buted to its advancement—have open
ed a field of inquiry and experiment,
which promise unlimited benefit totbe
agriculturist. Improvement is the or
der of the day in the field, and none of
the arts are more susceptible to the in
fluence of the progressive spirit of the
age, than that of the farmer.
But how is the farmer to avail him
self of this information, which shall
not only make his fortune, bat make
him a wiser man and a more useful
citizen? How, but by the press,
which is the Archimedean lever that
shall move the world ? T-he preys is
the engine of progress* the channel of
advancement, the principle agent of
art, science and pbilosophv. It will
tell every man m the laficl p eciscly
what has been done ib his art; it will
carry* to his very door the results of
tbe.chemist’3 experiments; and it bear
to him the-deductions of the practical
pperator. It carries not only the the
ories of the scholar and the mysteries
of the laboratory, but the every day
experience of the imn who labors with
his own hands. It is not t':e medium
of abstract'scrence alone, bat also of
the practical observations of the plain
unscientific farmer. It is not astilf rno-
itor dealing in abstruse learning which
is’beyond comprehension of the unlet
tered.-but a cheerful corn pan ion, which
speaks as an equal, without the vani-
ty'of learning or tlie ostentation of the
schools.
Fanner A , a plain and practic
al man sends to the newspaper the re
sults of his * experiments, in raising
corn, pigs and poultry. Farmer B
may read it if he will, and com
pare his own experience with it. This
is ope of the principle object of an ag
ricultural journal—and this is what
the old fogy farmer contemptuously
styles “bookforming.’''
Considered in relation to thisbranch
of its purpose, the agricaitnral jourmal
is simply a record of various experi
ences. When a farmer has been suc
cessful in any operation he gives it to
the world through the press, just as he
would drop m upon his neighbor and
verbally relate it. This is that horri
ble bugbear, "book farming.
But the press goes farther than this,
and gives theory as well as practice.—
It places “within the reach of the hum
blest farmer the deductions of sci
ence wliieh may benlit him in his daily-
occupation.'
* Book farming has long been a re
proach among the ultra-conservative
tillers of the soil. Whv it should be
so no more than book-doctoring, book
preaching, or - book politics, we arc at
a loss to determine. Is agriculture,
then, only a mure nrechanieal opper-
fttion, which requires no skill of judg
ment, tliat can be increased by study
and reflection—no enlarging of the un
derstanding that can be procured by
reading and experiment. Not at all.
Farming is-onlv an art—a mere me
chanical craft—in the hands of the
“old fogv;” but it is a ?cienee-a field For
unlimited research—in tlie nands of
the inquiring, progressive agricnltu-
riat—in the hands of the intelligent
‘foook faumer. .
The Irish laborer would derive no
appreciable advantage from books and
papers to aid him \the use of ins of
pick and shovel—Bis work is merely
mechanical—more of the bone and
muscle than the head; but the farmer-
let him not say that he can become no
wiser, no more skillful in his calling
by aid of books. He could offer no
stronger indication of his ignorance and
