From tbe New York Observer
A STORM IN THE MOUNTAINS-
BY F. WOODWARD EARL.
i.
See ! mark it rise I
The expanding sties
Are covering wiih the heavy mist,
... That now in sheets, aod now io mass
Is drawing o'er the mountain side,
- Aod filling up tbe pass. ,
Hush ! hark ! a sound,
As from the ground,
In low, but humming, deep-toned notes
Now 6trong, now faint, now full, now weak;
A moment heard, then lobt; and now
The very hill-tops speak.
The 6tcrm lias burst !
So slow, at first, .
That ecarce the ear could tell if true
The sounds that moaned above, around :
And now the leaden clouds, like night,
The whole horizon bound.
And, wild as bell,
With fearful yell,
The winds tear up the noble trees :
The thunders peal the lightnings flj-sh. :
And all the world seems wrapped in flame,
'Mid many an awful crash.
Tis past 'tis gone !
And peace alone
Lies softly on the sunny cliff,
And every vale and dell will smile
Amid the rain drops as through tears
Laughs out a merry child.

Self Made 31en. We do not wonder that
great men bare been born -mechanics;! for those
who have been brought up exclusWeJy in draw
ing rooms, intelligence is a gaoie, a recreation;
for those who haTe held tbe sword or the helm,
who have driven the plough or worked with the
chisel, intelligence becomes a passion, a force,
a branty, a worship, and a love divine. It is
from the stall, the shop, the work-room, that
the most powerful minds have issued: Moliere
from the upholster's, Barns from the farmer's,
ShakgDeare from the hosier's shop, Rosseau
1 from the wheelwright's. Loh engaged in a
struggle with physical nature, they all took re
fuge in the free doraaio of thought. Even an
inferior mind would become tempered to strength
in these mechanical apprenticeships; and if ever
tbe spirit of reform which is seizing on tho
world should extend to the act of creating citi
Eene, we doubt not that good sense will gain a
victory over custom, and that one of the most
important parts of every education will be hence
forth the due ad mix t Ere of the developement of
the mind and its action on nature.

This is to certify that I applied the Bone Flour
and Pacific Guano purchased of Hutchison, Bur
roughs & Co. one hundred pounds of the former
and one hundred and twenty-five pounds of the
latter to three-quarters of an acre of land. The
land would have produced, without manure, seven
bushels of Wheat. About one-fifth of the Wheat
was lost by lodging. The yield was sixteen bushels
f Wheat. U tho Wheat had all been saved the
yield would have been probably twenty five bushels
