Yes, boyskwe will do all we can, in our feeble manner, to help you along. -i. SYCAMORE ITEMS. Weather fine for Fall A nice rain fall last night, which will impede the progress of the Hessain fly, that infests the growing wheat.

And still they come! i Mr. John Furrs returned last week from Linn Co. had the pleasure, on last Sunday evening, of hearing a negro promulgate tae gospel to a large audience at the F. V. school house! I don' have been told you he made the dry bones clatter.

a Mrs. E. Brown has been very sick for the last week. 1 yy Mr. Wm.

Pennington, while working in a quarry last week, mashed his finger, but Uncle Wm. Lytle beingpresent dressed the wound, and it is thought young William will recover. Allison is building a large barn, while Uncle Bobby Taylor is revising his dwelling house, and Mr. George Furrs is building- a i stone which shows that 'Our neighbors are taking advantage of the Fall, and mean old "biz." why Wm.

The young American eaglo is feeding him gravel stones to give him grit. He swapped a two year old more for one hog and a 25 year old Yes, we have found it out. Married on the 7th, Mr. D. A Coyner to Miss ty.

V. Anderson, at the residence of the bride's father, by P. S. Moore, Esq. J.

H. Lyon is ull right now. He has a new pair of boots, notwithstanding ins stomach is a little confused since attending the county fair, and the bits of dictionary he vomits in a day is no small matter. Mr. Richard Taylor, who was out here last August looking at the country, returned to his home in Hlinois, sold out there, and is now heading for Mont gomery county with his family.

Seeing is believing. Mr. S. A. Hart's cattle took four first- class premiums at the county fair.

9 will be sold on the 20th inst. M. Taylor continues to fish down Big Hill. He baits with candy. I would suggest to the young man who is intending to- break prairie on such a gigantic scale, (spoken of by Bro.

77,) to go to the Rocky Mountains to procure his team, as tho Lizards there are large, and have hoots like a tobacco worm, and ears line corn-stocKS. The young men in this country grow fatter, holler louder, ccet too expansivo for their pantaloons, and become twenty years old sooner, by some months, than in any other country on earth. Fit. What Agriculture Does. Without agriculture there is not wealth.

Gold and silver are not wealth they are its convenient representa tives; commerce produces no wealth-it simply exchanges it manufacture and the arts combine it. Agriculture is the prolific mother of wealth the rest simply handle it when produced and delivered into their hands. The earth breeds savages. Agriculture breeds enlightened nations it breeds houses and ships, temples and seminaries; it breeds the manufactory sculpture, painting and music are its offspring. The wheels of the workshops, the sails of commerce, the implements of science, the pen of genius, the pencil and chisel of the artist, the eloquent tongue of the orator, the scheming brain of the statesman, the equipages of wealth, the banquetings of pleasure all that renders earth in its tides Of life anything but great sepulchre, move and have power of being, because the fields yield their fruits to the patient toil of the husbandman.

We might manage to live without merchants, without mariners, without orators, without poets perhaps we might possibly survive the loss of demagoucs but sure I am we could not live without plowmen. 1 The state of husbandry in any country is the best test of its enlightenment. The thermometer of civilization rises or falls as drives the plow. "You must send the plow," exclaimed ft man who had traveled all over Christian mis sionary ground, "in hoathen lands; ft bnrbnrinn nation noeds but to be plowed up deepV'snbsoiled, planted, nnd the inevitable harvest will bo an enlightened nation."
