Along the grass the chequered sunshine plays.

Of sorrows past and joys of long ago. 
MORAL ADVANTAGES OF RURAL LIFE. 
People residing in sparse settlements are 
not, in all cases, aware of their superior ad¬ 
vantages, morally, over the denizens of the 
city. While regretting that they are de¬ 
prived of some of the literary privileges en¬ 
joyed by the latter people, they should not 
forgot that, as an offset to this, they escape 
some of the evils universally prevalent in 
largo towns, and aro otherwise directly and 
highly favored. 
The superior moral advantages of country 
pooplo over others, is seen in the first place, 
from the fact that they are totally exempt 
from the influence of certain vicious charac¬ 
ters, common, and confined to, populous 
thoroughfares. Rural architecture does 
not embrace the subterranean saloon, the 
billiard arcade, the bowling alley and the 
thoatre; hence, the infesters and pillars of 
such edifices, — gamblers, counterfeiters, 
burglars, libertines and harlots,—aro at best, 
—or, rather, the worst —but temporary so¬ 
journers in thinly settled districts. They 
could no more thrive there, than fishes could 
perform an overland journey from ono ocean 
to another. In either case—the case of the 
scaly aquatic or the scalier mammal—the 
animal would be out of its natural element, 
and would fail in its attempts at respiration. 
In the second place the moral position of 
country people is preferable to that of oth¬ 
ers, from the fact that the temptations to 
some of those vices which are practised 
more or loss in all places, aro much weaker 
in rural than in civic communities. Dram 
shops aro neither so numerous nor so gaud¬ 
ily fittod up and tempting on the domain of 
agriculture as beneath the eye of commerce. 
Profanity sounds more revolting “ under 
the opon sky,” through which God seems to 
bo looking down, than amid the din of traf¬ 
fic, the mingled and half-stunning voices of 
bloated thrift, shriveled and sniveling integ¬ 
rity, insane ambition and obstreperous in¬ 
famy. Obscenity is more disgusting in 
“ God’s first tomple,” the sylvan canopy of 
the virgin earth, than in tho filthy streets 
whore stunted benevolence and repressed 
roveroneo abide, painted women perambu¬ 
late, and libertines stand like pseudo lamp- 
posts to darken the way to hell! Niggard 
inhospitality and sneaking avarice aro not 
only more noticeable but more hateful, 
where Nature scatters her bounties with a 
munificent hand, than where naked walls of 
towering and interminable blocks, present 
their barrenness and half conceal the light 
of day, which has that effect upon the heart 
which heat has on all hard bodios. The love 
of money—which love is the “ root of all 
evil,” and prevails everywhere,—approaches 
loss near idolatry in the country than in the 
splendid metropolis; for in tho latter place 
the temples of mammon line every street and 
even tho shaded avenues in the suburbs.— 
Hero, too, tho masses form the worshippers, 
and liko a mighty current boar every thing 
onward in their broad and sombre channel. 
In tho third, and last place the country is 
morally proferable to the city, from the fact 
that the former presents direct virtuous and 
religious influences, unknown in the latter. 
“ In its social organization, as well as in its 
physical structure,” says Rev. W. W. Everts, 
“ it may be said * God mado the country,’ 
with its domestic associations, relations of 
equality, its regular industry and habits, and 
its mutual and unrestricted sympathies; 
and * man mado the town,’ with its anti-do¬ 
mestic associations, undue distinctions of 
classes, hurried and thoughtless life, and re¬ 
stricted charities.” 
There is a strong moral influence in the 
pure air of the country; in tho music of 
humming insects, the vernal harping of 
newts, the ovening low of herds, tho livelong 
caroling of numberless birds, the shout of 
dancing cascades, and the roar of torrents; 
and in tho prospect of waving fields of grain, 
far-stretching intervals plumed with the 
richest verdure, rolling prairies, lakes sleep¬ 
ing in the sun and mountains aspiring to 
heaven. To these influences tho inhabitants j 
of tho city are strangers, and over must be, | 
until their abodo, like the millennial Jerusa¬ 
lem, as portrayed by Zacheriah, “shall be 
called a city of truth,” and its sanctified 
streets “ shall be full of boys and girls play¬ 
ing in the streets thereof.” J. c. 
Buffalo, March, 1852. 
A FALSE NOTION. 
IIow frequently do we hear it asserted by 
a large, semi-enlightened class of our citi¬ 
zens, that “a farmer needs no more edica- 
tion than to know a little something about 
Geography and Titlnnetic,”—so, I suppose, 
as to know the way to market, and how to 
reckon the worth of twelve eggs at 10 cents 
a dozen. What an unfounded and unrea¬ 
sonable notion is this ! Its erroneousnoss is 
equaled only by its evil influence upon the 
noble pursuit of agriculture, and its degra¬ 
dation of the class who till the soil. What, 
the farmer need not be educated when he 
is so often called upon to apply practically 
the information gained by the most thorough 
and extensive scientific acquirements! Shall 
not the farmer bo educated who is so inde¬ 
pendent,—who is so much retired, and far 
remote from the btjsy—the pernicious hab¬ 
its, the corrupting influences of the city,— 
who has so many hotirs to himself asido 
from labor, which he can, so consistently 
and profitably devote to mental improve¬ 
ment ? All Nature is spread out in one vast 
panorama before him. Beneath his feet is 
the fruitful earth, clad in living green;— 
round about him, the bracing atmosphere, 
pure and undefiled,—over head the starry 
heavens present myriads of night-watchers 
set in tho sky, all beckoning his thoughts 
upward. While all Nature thus conspires 
to elevate his affections, enlarge his ideas, 
and expand his soul, must base ignorance 
bind him down, among the brute ceation ?— 
j Shall tho baseless notion of a few narrowly- 
contracted minds longer prevent him from 
attaining to the stature of a Man ? 
How many more generations of farmers 
j shall be influenced by this false notion, and 
thus led on by these “blind leaders of the 
blind,” who scarcely know who they are,— 
whence they came,—whither bound, or for 
what purpose they wore created ? How long 
shall the mighty intellect be chained down 
thus, and enslaved to superstition, prejudi¬ 
cial notions, which are destitute of truth and 
reality, as of reason and common sense ?— 
I rejoice that this whimsical opinion has al¬ 
ready been partially exposed,—its effects are 
becoming known, and its only remedy is be¬ 
ing occasionally prescribed, though less fre¬ 
quently received; but I would that this 
prescription were more general, and its re¬ 
ception, and consequent results more uni¬ 
versal ! And, to assist in the accomplish¬ 
ment of this grand and most desirable 
object, is undoubtedly your intention, your 
determination, your duty. Every noble, 
true-hearted, philanthropic, magnanimous 
soul of the age should 
Lend a helping hand, 
To banish from our land— 
And not from ours alone, 
But all, in every zone— 
This giant tyrant Ignorance, 
Who holds us chained, mid never grants 
To us one ray of light. And then, 
May Agriculturists be men. 
Yates, N. Y., April 6, 1852. N. W. C. 
MUTUAL FORBEARANCE. 
That house will be kept in a turmoil 
where there is no tolemnce of each other’s 
errors, no lenity shown to failings, no meek 
submission to injuries, no soft answers to 
turn away wrath. If you lay a single stick 
of wood upon the andirons and apply fire to 
it, it will go out; put on another stick, and 
they will burn; add half a dozen, and you 
will have a grand conflagration. There are 
other fires subject to the same conditions, j 
If ono member of a family gets into a pas¬ 
sion, and is let alone, ho will cool down, and 
possibly bo ashamed and repent. But op- j 
pose temper to temper; pile on the fuel; 
draw in tlie others of the group, and let ono 
harsh answer be followed by another; and 
there will soon be a blaze which will enwrap 
them all in its lurid splendors. The venera¬ 
ble Philip Henry understood this well, and 
when his son Matthew, the Commentator, 
was married, ho sent those linos to the wed¬ 
ded pair: 
“ Love one another, prey oft together; mid see 
You never both together angry be : 
If one speak fire, t'other with water come : 
Is one provoked? be t'other soft or dumb.” 
YOUTHFUL NEGLECT. 
Walter Scott, in a narrative of his per¬ 
sonal history, gives the following caution to 
youth: 
“ If it should ever fall to the lot of youth to 
peruse these pages, let such readers remem¬ 
ber that it is with the deepest regret that I 
recollect in my manhood the opport unities of 
learning which I neglected in my youth; that 
through every part of my literary career, I 
have felt pinched and hampered by my own 
ignorance; and would this moment give half j 
the reputation I have had the good fortune 
to acquire, if by so doing, I could rest the 
remaining part upon a sound foundation of 
learning and science.” 
Louis XIV., when in his intercourse with 
the accomplished society of France, felt his 
own deficiencies, often upraidod tho foolish 
indulgence which had left his own youth 
without instruction, exclaiming, “ Was there 
not birch enough in the forest of Fontain- 
bleu T 
A LADY’S OPINION OF MOORE. 
Another light is dimmed, and the earth 
bears in her bosom another of her gifted 
children—one as familiar to us as house¬ 
hold words. Sweet summer will come with 
all her wealth of flowers, and fruits, and 
sunny skies; but he will sleep. Sad autumn 
will sigh among the pale white tombs; but 
he will still sleep on. Yes, for us, tho ma¬ 
gician has wielded for the last time his grace¬ 
ful wand, and the gifted poet, tho wit, the 
song writer par excellence, is silent forever! 
There are few of us with whom Moore has 
not, at some period of our lives, been a pas¬ 
sion ; and though wo may have learned to 
look upon many of his poems as boquets of 
lovely flowers without leaves, the memory of 
many an exquisite line will haunt us forover. 
Who shall, who can criticise his songs harsh¬ 
ly? They are the wail for the lost and ab¬ 
sent. Few are the eyes to which the unbid¬ 
den tear does not start at hearing Moore’s 
songs well sung. They find some answering 
chord in every bosom, so full are they of 
inexhaustible beauty. For perfect match¬ 
less grace and harmony of metro, what can 
excel them? 
Our language grows pliant and flexible, 
to an unknown capacity, under his genial 
pen, which literally showers roses and dew- 
drops, music, moonlight and perfume, and 
distils them upon our senses, Avith a power 
altogether enchanting and inevitable. Was 
ever man so alive to those beautiful exter¬ 
nals with which nature so loves to bedeck 
himself? Ho sought not for tho inward 
spiritual grace which sheds a starry radiance 
over our more intonated poets. He was 
content to wait for that—hereafter. To 
him it was enough to enwreath himself with 
earth’s garlands, to let his lyre ring re- 
spondingly to melting lays of love and ten¬ 
derness—to bathe our spirits in the dewy 
incense of moonlight, and let earth’s glad 
waters, “ sleep in smiles.” There seems to 
have been, among a certain set, a strange 
association of Moore with wickedness; they 
looked grave when he was mentioned, and 
seem by tacit consent, to have consigned 
him to some dark future. Without know¬ 
ing anything of the private life of our favor¬ 
ite, or that he was more erring than a man 
gifted like himself with extraordinary pow¬ 
ers of conversation, a wit. poet, ‘ the loved 
of all circles, the idol of his own,” might be, 
we take up the gauntlet in his defence. To 
us it is impossible to conceive a bad, heart¬ 
less man, with a soul imbued with such sen- 
timonts as Moore showers upon us in his 
exquisite songs. His faults were those lie 
shared with many; and were they not those 
which man forgives the easiest? “Light be 
the turf above thee,” gifted one, and thanks, 
for thy beautiful verses, which ever and 
anon melt the ice of selfishness around our 
worldly hearts. Thou bringest back to us 
the idols of our early dreams, the hopes, the 
fears, of youth and love; and, though in far- 
off England thy ashes sleep, thy soul is with 
us yet. 
“You may break, you may ruin the vase if you will, 
But the scent of the roses will hang round it still.” 
SLUMBERING MEMORIES. 
We hear that the human heart is a harp 
of a thousand strings ; but do not always re¬ 
flect upon what is thus heard—that the 
faintest touch—tho lowest and gentlest 
whisper of the more sacred and distant of 
life’s memories, will bring out a vibration of 
harmony which fills the spirit with a flood 
of bliss. We walk through the crowded 
streets and jostle each other, while the mys¬ 
teries of the inner life are waving and chang¬ 
ing like the white clouds of a summer sky. 
And that inward melody—the music of 
that world unseen—is ever breathing its 
calming influences upon the spirit which, 
without, may wrestle so coldly with the op¬ 
posing currents of life. 
The least sound, or word, or look, will 
often awaken the slumbering music of the 
heart. Often, too, it comes as if unbidden 
by a single breath and like a gleam of sun¬ 
shine through the storm, gilds the cloud-sky 
of the darkest hour. We have sometimes 
heard the music of the church bell as its 
waves came across the fields, and forgotten 
for the time the world without, the hushed 
spirit yielding and floating away with its re¬ 
treating echoes. And so with music. One 
of tho " good old songs of yore,” breathed 
from the soul is to us, worth more than 
wealth or fame. They carry us back.— 
Like a tired wanderer, the spirit revels in 
the treasured bliss of days which can come 
no more, and is young again in the dream¬ 
land of happiness and youth. There is a 
bird, one of the earliest of Spring, that never 
fails to thus wing us to the past as its sim¬ 
ple wood-note gushes out in song. It sounds 
as it did in spring mornings at the old home¬ 
stead, and we'see them again hopping upon 
the hedge where the briars grew so thickly 
between the meadow and orchard. Each 
stone, and knoll, and tree! How vividly left 
on the memory. We listen to the bird and 
dream that all around that holy spot, is as 
it then was.— Cayuga Chief. 
Newspaper Writing. —What a singular 
medley a newspaper must be. In one col¬ 
umn you will find a labored and swelling eu¬ 
logy of departed greatness, apparently writ¬ 
ten with tears and inspired by sorrow; in 
the next appears the history of the crops; 
anon occurs a witticism, next occurs a cir¬ 
cus puff, or a recommendation of ice cream, 
then follows the deaths and marriages. All 
tastes (and no tastes at all) must be consult¬ 
ed. Sorrow and fun, business and nonsense, 
must all find a place in the folio of our pa¬ 
ges, or the people will “ stop the paper.” 
In whatever you engage, pursue it with a 
steadiness of purpose, as though you were 
determined to succeed. A vacillating mind 
never accomplished anything worth naming. 
There is nothing like a fixed, steady aim.— 
It dignifies your nature and insures your 
^Dutli’s Jliusfunt.

Nothing’sso hard, butsearcli will find itout.”

HARO ULTi:US a11<1 THERMOMETERS. 
D AVIL) KENDALL, (recently of the firm of “ Kendall 
Brothers,” New Lebanon, N. Y.,) would tender his 
acknowiedgenents to the citizens of Rochester and vicini¬ 
ty, for the “material” patronage they have given him.— 
From the earnest solicitations of scientific n>en and others, 
I have been induced to change my place of business from 
Pittsford to this city, and have associated with me George 
Taylor, under the firm of KENDALL & TAYLOR. 
Our manufactory is in the upper room of the Novelty 
Building, where we shall be happy to ^-ee all who wan 1 
good instruments. The character'of Kendall’s Ther¬ 
mometer is too well known to require extended notice here. 
We have facilit'es for manufacturing as good instruments 
as can be made in this country. For accuracy of con¬ 
struction, neatness of finish, and reasonableness of prices, 
we defy competition. All our work is warranted. 
Our facilities for sending instruments in all directions 
are unrivalled—one great consideration in our selection ol 
locality, as great care is necessary in their transportation. 
D. Kendall was awarded a Diploma on specimens of 
Barometers and Thermometers exhibited at the late State 
Fair.

Rochester, Jan. *27,1852. [109tf.] 
University or Rochester, ? 
February 21, 1852. ( 
I have examined a Parlor Barometer with a zero adjust 
nienl, manufactured by Messrs. Kendall 4c Taylor of this 
cily, and have thoroughly tested it by the Smithsonian Ba¬ 
rometer, used in the University, in its graduation and oth¬ 
er particulars. It appears to equal that instrument for the 
nicest operations, the scale being easily read off to thou¬ 
sandths of an inch, and the graduation at least equally ac¬ 
curate. I can have no hesitation in recommending Messrs. 
Kendall 4c Taylor’s Barometers most fully to the public. 
The zero adjustment makes the Instrument entirely su¬ 
perior to the common wood cistern, or the bent-tube Ba¬ 
rometer. 
I also found the Thermometer, attached to their Barom¬ 
eter and another of theirs, both made with their usual 
care, to agree with that attached to the Smithsonian Ba ■ 
ronieter. They have the method of graduating their scale 
with great accuracy to any variation iu the diameter of 
Uie Thermometer tube. 
I also examined the machine by which Mr. Kendall per¬ 
forms the graduation for the firm,—a machine invented by 
Mr. Kendall’s father, and so highly commended by Prof. 
Silliman long smee in the American Journal of Science— 
a machice constructed on mathematical principles, mark¬ 
ing divisions with extreme accuracy, and capable of divi¬ 
ding to hundreths of an inch without a magnifier.
