Without faith there is m a' rung prayer, and to pray i longing of my soul. pray, t.ot that thou nhoul Jtt take away obita clea on my path, but that thou mayst permit me to overcome them. I pray, not that thou ahouldat disirm my euemiea, but that thou ahouldit aid me to conquer myself. Hear, 0 Got!, my prayer. Preserve to my af fection those who are dear to me.

Misfortune ia converted into happinent hy the iweet thetighl that thonu whom we love are happy. Jlappinosi ia poisoned by the miter Ihrught; while I rejoice, those whom I love a thousand times better than myself aro Buffering. For me, 0 Gotl no more happinei. Take it iroin my pain. 1 can only Hid joy in forgetting the past. If I forget those who are no more I shall he torgotten in my turn ; and how sad the thought which make one any : 1 inie ef face all I" The only salisfiolion I seek is that which lasts forever, that whicli i given by tranquil con science. O my God 1 allow me ever where my duty lie, and give me strength to accomplish it always. Arrived at the term ot my life, I shall turn my looks fearlessly to the past. Remembers ce will not be for me a long remorse. Then I shall be happy. Grant, 0 God! that my heart may bo penetrated with the conviction that iIiosh whom I love und these who are de.nl shall uo all my actions. My life nhall be worthy of their wil lies, and my iniiirm.t-t thought shall never make tl.cm liou'ih, .I . llow to Sire Rasltd Grain. Last seanon Mr. L. K. Ilcdgpatb, any the Independent, had somu late sown grain which rusted, nhd instead of doing a many would havo done, he cut the giain jtil before the stalks had tipened in taut, were yet green, and IcohcIv piled it up. Ilia idea in no doing waa to experiment a little. The wheat thus runted acd cut rip ened in the pile, and when it was ex amined the head were found filled with the plumpest ot grain, and the wheat tin ended theretorm of a su perior qua'iy. Tho wheat was cut whe.) the grain were "stiff dough," ami il in established by the experi ment that the sap from the stock continued to pans into the heads until they were filled, and the sun ripened the grain long after il was cut. This i something new n ns, and pr baby will be to maay far. tm i ot large experience; and as there i o niilerabl g ain in the country nfll'ded with rust, we would like to hear of the txperiment being repeat ed. If the result will held good in all cases, ml will be robbed of its terror to our grain producers here after and its appearance in fields, will show them that very ollen they can commence harvesting early in dsr.ip s well as dry seasons.
