Thus, on the 25th January when the sun is on the noon- tnark the wat^h must be set 12 minutes 41 seconds past twelre, which will be the true time. The practice of setting time pieces by the rising or setting of the Sun or Moon is not strictly correct, as the unevenness of the earth's surface and intervening objects, such as hills and forests near the points of rising and setting, occasion a deviation in every place from the time expressed in the Almanack, which time is adapted to a smooth level horizon. The' only means of keepihg correct time is by the use of a noon- mark or a meridian line. / BELORER'S rARMBR'8 [1867 1857.] £XPI BEGINNING AND LENGTH OF THE SEASONS.

'' 8 and 9 — The* rising and setting of the Moon. 10— The time of the Moon's southing, or passing the meridian. This column also gives the time of High Water at Parrsboro', Hor- ton, CornwaUis, Huntsport, Windsor, Newport, Truro, &c. 365 5 3d 11— The symbols in this column indicate the moon's' place in the Signs or Constellations of the Zodiac. The top of the columns of each mQuth gives the Moon's Phases, or times of New and Full Moon, and of the First and Last Quarters, or quadratures with the Sun. Thb Farmba's Calendar is placed at the foot of the columns of each month.

These four columns are computed on the supposition that the time of High Water on the days of New and Full Moon) L'eatabliatment du port) is at Halifax, 7h. 30m. — at Annapolis, St. John, N. B., and Portland, llh. 14m. — at Pictou and Cape Tormentine, lOh. and St. Johns, Newfoundlond, 6h. 30m. All the calculations are made to mean solar time,.which h^s super* seded the old mode of reckoning by aj^arent time. The Ef hemxris of the Princival Planets — The hour of meridian pataage, right aacenaion and declination of each of the principal planets is given for the Itt and 15th of each month. For any other day than the let and 15th of the month, apply a correction at the rate of 3fn. 55.91«. per day, reckoned from the nearest given day, to be added for an earlier day— subtracted if for a later day. Spring tider are the highest, and occur at or about Full or New Moon. Neap tides are the lowest, and occur at the first and last' quarters. Ebb tide is that between high and low water, lasting, on an average, 71-4 hours ; and Flood tide is that between low and hish water, lasting about 5 1-4 hours. During strong north-west- erly gales the tide rises earlier but does not rise to its usual height, while the ebb tide runs out longer and falls lower; but upon the . gales abating and weather moderating they are later, higher and stronger. A south-westerly gale has a contrary effect ; and ah east erly gives some additional water.

AaRiccLTCRAL implements and machinery are receiving more attention trofn the public than they have formerly done, and are destined to receive far more attention than they now do. It is but a* fuw yenrs since the horse rake came into use ; now a farmer would almost as qui<-k think of getting his hay without a pitchfork as without a horise rake. It was nt one time thongnt imoossible to use a hone rake on any land that was not perfectly smooth »ud level; now a farmer would be loath to mow a meadow that is so rough that he cannot use the horse rake. If you have any meadows or old fields that are sward hound, or which bore indifferent crops of hay last season, gire them a thorough harrowing as soon as the frost is out of the surface in the spring, while the ground is soft ; then sow to each acre four .quarts timothy seed, teu pounds red clover, five bushels wood ashes, and five bushels fresh slacked lime, all well mixed, and roll it well In. This will insure you a good crop of grass, without the labor of ploughing immediately. mmm IMHPI Spflig Ephener dpal fi Merci $ Vmiu (f Han, T).

'■■■ DBAiinifa and manuring are the principal means which have hitherto been employed for improving the condition or oompoeition of soils. Almost all agriculturists ai^ now pretty well acquainted with tlie advantages to be derived from the above named methods of improvemontv and are convinced th^t all Judicious expenditures, either in the way of draining or of manuring, will or may be made to pay. Bat there Is a method of improving soils, to which the attention of farmers hM not heen, as yet, directed. We refer to that method which coub'sts in adding to soils those eart/M •ubetancaa in which they are deficient. Light sandy and gravelly soils, upon which wheat cannot be raiaed to any advantage, are benefited by additions of ciiay, peaty earth, or naeadow muck, or a mixture of all in a compost with staUo and bani manure.

At the growing of fruit Is becoming quite an oltfeet, not only for fnmily comfort, but also as a source of profit, too much cnre and attention cannot be glv<>n to youngireoe, in the present condition of our old lands, which hare l)ecn under cnltlvfttion such a length of time. When our oonutry wns new and rich, large orchards were plsnted, and grew rapidly, with little rare except an occasional trtmmint; ; bnt a great change has token place. Long cnltiTmtion has deprived our land of its natural richness, and according to some, has robbed the soil of some of the most essential ingredients re- quired to prodnee a good growth of trees. Be that as it may, a few years of experience In attempting to grow trees on an exhausted soil, will convince any one of the utter Iblly of attempting to raise flntit trees on such soil, without high cultivation and un- remitting care and attention, — they require eonstant care and watchfulness to keep them in a healthy and thriving condition. Ko doubt much depends on having the trees properly set in the first place; but let that be done right, the tree njiu not flouiish unless it is highly manured and otherwise cared for. 1 11 D 5t 13 L( 14 15 Si mmim I9&h It tH«8t. loutb. 7 49 8 34 9 21 12 1 5 1 59 norn. 54 46 36 23 9 55 42 32 25 8 23 9 25 29 32 32 26 15 «•• t f t ar sxr K K n n So Zo 1»R 3 42 .TL 4 23 ^ 5 3 J^ 5 45 n 6 28 m 7 14 / 8 3 f ilth WRtcr at , Truro, &c. 7 comfort, but jroungjtreca, Imtion mefa a were planted, k great change 1 richneaa, and ngredienta re- i of experience le of the utter ration and nn- telnewf to keep on haring the » tree ii;fll not SoiMer.

WnrrsBis the time for farmers to think — spring, summer, and fall, to work ; and the three latter seaRons' laliorwill be to little profit, if the time of the first shall have been misspent. All the plans of next season's operations should be laid and well eSh- sidered during winter. All improvementit, all designs for new operations, all the work to be done, should then be considered and prepared fi>r, so tbat when the time Ibr work arrives he will have nothing to do but to " go ahead." Then he has no time to think ; but if ho has been wise during winter he Will hSTe no need of it. It Is a piti- ful sight to look at in the spring, when all nature is in an ecstasy of delight, to see a former flying about " like a hen with her bead cut oH," trying to do a thousand things at once, not knowing which to do first, mnning here and Uiere In seareh of his rusty implements, some of which require repairs, some can't be Ibund ; the plough- ing season passing away, the planting season rapidly adTaneing, and be not prepMvd for any thing.

[1867- THE ASTONISHMENT AND DELIGHT OF THE WORLD ! PRICE, 25 CENTS PER BOX. Thirty yeara' experience in America, together teith the highest antiquity of which Russian history boasts, has fully established this excellent Family Remedy, for the cure of Cuts, Bums, Scidds, Flesh Wounds, Chilblains, Boils, Felons, Ery- sipelas, Cancers, Files, Salt Rheiim, Sprtdns, Bruises, Injuries by Splinters, Ringworm, Warts, Eruptions, Frost Bitten parts of the body. Old Sores, Chapped Lips, Chapped Hands, Excoriations of the Body, Roughness of the Skin ; and it takes out infiamiEation at once ; it heels and soothes whilst it restores the com- plexion and the tone of the skin, ranking foremost among the in- dispensable articles which every family should have in the house. The Nurse, the Belle, and the Beau, alike regard it as neces- sary at the Toilet. Nor does the sturdy common sense of the Farmer, the Me- chanic, the Soldier and the Sailor, neglect it. It is true these are slow to adopt a foreign remedy, but when once they have done so and proved its efficacy, they are reluc- tant to abandon it, and thin is common sense. Certificates from every class in the American community can be brought forward, but the Proprietors are content with the following, which originally appeared in the Christian Watchman and Reflector, unsolicited. Read what the paper says : i| " We were recently amused on hearing a child hardly old enough to talk, and who had ju»t received the merest scratch on his HaKer, inquiring for the Russia Salve of persons who had never seen the article. Wo luid ourselves supposed it was one of the numerous humbugs and catch-pennies of the day, but have been mistaken. We learn that Rev. W. Collier, a n>OBt estimable Baptist clergyman, with whom we are well acquainted, and who haa now Ijeen dead for some teii years, was presented with a recipe for Its manufacture, by a native of Russia. Mr. C, In his wailtt among the poor, while a city missionary in Boston, often applied It and found that remarkable curer« were effected. At length, so extensive was the demand, he was compelled to charge a small price for the article In order to meat the expense which was Incurred. Wehavejiist seena box of the olnti^Lent that was put up by liim sometwentyy^ars ago, which is still Just as fresh as ever. We have not written the foregoing for any selfish purpose, but to express our confidence in the excellence of Redding's Russia i^alve, for wounds and burns." The above .Salve is put up In large sized metal boxes, with «n engraved wrapper, without which, none are genuine. RKUDING A Co , Proprietors, Mo. 8 State .Street, Boston.

CAPITAL, £100,000 STERLINa NOTICE. The privilege offered to Assurers in the Star Life Oilice, arc highly advantageous. Ninety per cent., or nine- tenths of the' profits (ascerr tained every fifth year) ore allotted to the holders of Policies ; which may be applied in the reduction of the future annual premiumi or be added to the sum insured, as a bonus. Thirty days are allowed for the payment of the premium from the date of its becoming due. All claims are paid within fifty days of their being allowed by the Board, and disputed claims referred to arbitration. The dividend declared in 1848 was 02 per cent, on the premium paid, the largest bonus ever given by any Company having agencies in this country. This Society is chiefly, but not exclusively, devoted to the Assur- ance of the lives of members of the Wesleyan Methodist Sotieties, and of the hearers and friends of that connexion. Assurances how- ever, have been, and may be effected upon all assurable lives. Noth- ing need be said upon the propriety of persons assuring their lives for the benefit of their families and friends, when so many proofs are furnished by the experience of every day life. The advantages of a Respectablie Company, with a large Capital and dividing handsome profits, are too obvious to need any comment.
