When we ate tired hih) neiiaiiive, aud
ready to halt, we usually take a stroll.
Now, a stroll is something one can take
metaphorically as well us really or pliys
ica’.ly. Tho metaphorical is not s hrsein"
ami freshening ox tho aimon-puic. n <u.
the lessons one is apt to imbibe and treas
ure up, so spirited and complete. Vet,
ouc call stroll, ami see. hear, feel nnd
learn, without crossing a river, jumping a
| stile, chasing a rabbit, or (Jigging a fossil.
] Ho it is, that when we are tired witli the
vexations and contradictious of the busy
world's life, we just hike a stroll. Nature
!is tilway’s equal; her mind is never tickle ,
her voice is always full, lender, confiding
and true, her spirit is the nreatii of God.
To tuke a stroll, therefore, is to enter upon
a delightful pleasure, receive the hem-die
tlon of a warm, loving mother, mid behold
i the wotks of n beneficent God
Old men must have tlalfs, and young
I men, guides. The “ Vegetable World." a
work written by LouU Figtiicr, a philoso
plier of nature, is a guide most men will
fall in love with and women too.
Not that Louis is systematic in his
thought, or in the treatment of his won
derful subject. 11 is hump of order, seien
titlc order we mean, needs developing, but
then, some people think that the Creator
himself is deficient 111 that particular
quality.
Also one loves lo read uii uuoidcily
hook, if the facts, and the beautiful secrets
are declared nud unfolded. And for this
reason Louis is not only readable, but abso
lutely loveable. You see heaven iu the
countenance of a plant or flower, and feel
the electricity of sweet life in contact w ith
the most unpretentious sprout that forms
the garden hedge. Home people—very
wise they arc too, suy, that Louis Figuicr
is fickle us a scientist, and that one must
not believe all lie says
Hut what of Hint - Who an- the judges
that so pronounce They are your gray
old fossils, who sti il. as we do sometimes,
metaphorically, you know' They study
nature In a den up stair . in . I tek room,
with cob webs for window blind* and n
smoking lamp for sunshine I They sec
tho i mining brook ami hear i!s silver
rattle—in a hook.
Tho bird* sing carols ou every tree—a
ten miles’journey in the country! And
the grasses dip their graceful forms he
neuth the pearl of dew—but bless you,
they never saw tin* wee Lit beauty, except
in printer's ink !
What do they know about Louis 1 iguier,
or nature either, or anything, indeed, be
yond the eternal naving faces which they
have caged (metaphorically) in syllogistic
forms, and Illustrated in liars and dia
grams
Nature! lilosscd, tell-tale, constant,
changing. Nature! Thou art better than
books—thyself the hook of books, nud on
thy illuminated page are pictures and
texts, which, not men only, but angels,
may study ami admire forevermore
Therefore we thunk Figuicr, because lie is
so much like, though not so good ns
Nature.

THE PKE4IIITM WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising i*
a necessity to success in business; it is also
conceded. b> the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are the best medium for reaching
all parties whose trade is desired.
THE MONROE ADYEBTIBER
reaches more of the people trading with Ma
con than any other journal published in the
country; it is, therefore, the brat medium of
communication with the planting interests.
We will be happy at any time to furnish refer
ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere,
who will testify to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from partics'who reati
their cards in Tlie Advertivr. In fact, many
who have availed themselves of its columns
candidly say that its value exceeds that of s!l
other journals in which they are represented-
The AdirrUser has the freshness of youth aDd
the ripeness of age, and is therefore deservedly
successful.
CHARACTER OF ADVERTISEMENTS
No advertisements are admitted which are
not behaved to be above question and of real
Talue, and from parties so unquestionably re
liable that the readers of The Advertieer will be
safe in ordering them from any distance. T o
onr readers, the fact of its appearance bereM*
all the weight of endorsement and authority-
