PLEASURES OF AGRIcULTuRE.-The en-
ployments OF agriculture, independently of
their profit, are most congenial and pleasing
TO human nature An uncorrupted or unfair
nished mind sees in the progress of Vegetation,
and in the habits and dispositions, and uses
OF these animals which man has subiugated
to his sway, charms and beauties which the
objects Of art can seldom afford The occu-
patlons OF husbandry are most favorable, too,
to health, to plenty, to repose and innocence.
Can the pursuit of low and vicious gratifica-
tions, can luxurious indulgences, can the rest
less cares, the fears and anxieties of the am
bilious, be compared with the labors and en-
Joyments of him whose days are spent in SUI
perlntending the cultivation of his fields-his
nights in quiet and refreshing sleepl Such a
life is not inconsistent with highly cultiva-
ted mind. II is by no means necessary that
they who engage in rural labors should con-
tract coarseness Of manners or vulgarity of
sentiment.


The superntendence of garden is ano-
ther source of simple and innocent pleasure
Nothing is better calculated to CRAFTY the in
herent passions Of novelty, for nature is al
ways renewing her variegated appearance.
She is intimate in her productions, and the
lives ofmany may come to close before they
have seen half the beauties which she is able
to display.


short excursion into the country are, of
themselves, the source of every sensible and
innocent pleasure. But he who is engrossed
by vice; or by business will live halfa life
without admiring the beauties of a blue sllv.
basking in the vernal sunshine, or inhalin6
with any consciousness of real delight, the
balsam of a western gale.


In a proper intercourse, and behavior a.
mong our tellnw creatures, will be found
however, to consist our principle and most
constant delight. To do good, and to prevent
evil, as far as the sphere of our influence or
activity,extends, is am infollible method of in
spring in ourselves pleasurable emotions.
