PLANT TREES.-The man who plants a tree, liquidates in part a debt which he owes to his ancestors, by paying it to posterity. A sensible writer says:-"There is no part of husbandry which men more commonly fail in, neglect, and have cause to repent of, than that they did not seasonAnd send them to thy heart, that, spying sin, ably begin to plant trees, without which they can neither expect fruit, ornament nor delight from They may weep out the stains thy sin did rise; their labors.

THE REFORMER.

Happy he whose inward ear
Angel comfortings can hear,

O'er the rabbie's laughter;
And, while Hatred's faggots burn,
Glimpses through the smoke discern
Of the good hereafter.
Knowing this, that never yet
Share of Truth was vainly set

In the world's wild fallow:
After hands shall sow the seed,
After hands from hill and mead

Reap the harvest yellow.

Thus, with somewhat of the Seer,
Must the moral pioneer

From the Future borrow;
Clothe the waste with dreams of gain,
And on midnight's sky of rain
Paint the golden morrow!
