If there is anything more exhilar ating than the odor of uewiy movru hay piled high upon big mows, as one walks over the main floor of a well filled Itarn, with the hot breeze rushing in at one open looranlout of the other, on one of these mid .suiuiner days, we don't knuw where amid all the sights and sounds and fragrance of town or country life, it may lx encountered. We are la. miliar with the vivifying odor that comes from the fresh running brooks of the earliest spring-time, while the snow yet lingers iu huge patches here and there along the cool sides of the little hills, slowly yielding their stored-np moisture to the fra grant rill at their base, telling us that winter is over and past ; with the fragrance of the freshly turned furrow as the patient oxen slowly phnl over the ridgy field, with a de lightful mist rising Iroin tbegrouud as each new furrow goes over, the robbins and sparrows hop aud sail iu gjee- behiud our plow promise of the delightful spring tune winch has just opened; with the luscious smell that comes from riie apples ruddy aud cheerful, as in the early October mornings' they lay in gen erous heaps under the trees upon which they were so recently the chief leauty, awaiting transport to cool cellars on their wav to tue crown ing joy of the social eveuing festiv tivities of the farm but more grate ful and more significant than these and all beside, there is the exquisite fragrance from a barn full of herds grass and clover, verual grass, aud meadow foxtail. It is mid-day. We have just eaten dinner after a forenoon fol lowing the mower and tedder". Tlie tumbles of hay, cut yesterday, have been ooened to sun and air. The great floors at each end of the barn are wide open, and an empty hay ,!U'k ,sl ust been run out of the the floor the sweet hay fevers the planks like a soft car l-t ; while way above rthe braces even to the lieains, is piled the har vest of field and meadow. We stnd on the floor aud catch the -soothing iutiueuces of the west wind laden with tnlor of field and flower as it euvelopes us like the pel-famed waters of a Turkish bath, coming atjoue and goiug at anoth er entraned. The landscape view etl fnun the big door is of marvel ous beauty.

Look! Ihe bil- 1 "osus .i an, iiuuioe. mne.. ami rain tilled! Down to the field goes the big rack; the tumbles are piled iu; ithe forks and rakes Hy; strong men sweat under the great forkfuls of hay. The clouds gather. Every moment au accurate eye sweeps the blackened heavens, ineasuriiigthe distance away of the shower, ami computing the rate at which it is; traveling. There is a strong rustling of the leaves; the breeze increases anil is laden with the odor of rain drops; hay is blown from the rapidly -moving' load; the chickens run for shelter; the farm gate is blow n tin its hinges; the sound of ithe rain is plainly heartlfc Hurry! The hay rack strikes the platform leading to the floor: the load plunges into the barn with a thud, - the. boys on the top of the load bounce as upon a' pillow, as the wheels strike the sill; down, comes the rain in torrents,. There is a merry ring of glad vojees it is the last load. ; ltYK This crop is sow n by many at the end of August, others sow iu Septeinlier. For cutting green for early feeding or for fall pasturing, it is better to sow early and make successive sowings. For these pur poses. 1 wo bushels of seed wheat to the acre is not too much, aud for a crop of grain one bushel is not too little. A soil that is too light, for wheat 'will often give paying crops of rye, but the laud ought to lie in gotwl tilth. Frequently indeed,' as a rule,, the straw of rye brings as much as the grain, where a city mar ket is convenient, and tuns often makes it more profitable than wheat When rve is to be cut green for sttK-k tjie land ought to be made rich, the yield is larger and it comes earlier. N. C. Farmer. All About Egypt. "'Egyptian troubles and complica tions, which eventuated in actual w;ar, have attracted unusual atten tion to that section of the .world of late. Egypt is a wonderful coun try, wonderful iu her autiquity, her history, her people, her rulers, her monuments, her arts, and her liter ature. If not the mother of nations, she seems to have been their school i - . ma'am to a considerable extent. Her histor' reaches back to the re motest jieriotl of time, aud is! chief ly w ritten on ancient monuments, so shattered aud fragmentary as to affprd little chronological certainty, the most skillful archaeologists tlitl' ering some thousands of years ia their calculations. ' J was an old etauitry when Jacob sent, his sons down there to buy corn. SeeuIators had cornered the, provision market in Canaan, it will le remembered, and run .corn up 'to famine pritses, and Egypt hatl to be resorted to for relief. ! Fortu uate was it for thei brethren that their, brother Joseph was iu : Egypt in advance of them. The Egyptians were skilled ih the arts and sciences, and inveuted an embalming pro cess that has handed their ; bodies down to posterity if it has not their names. The human body was sa cred thing to the Egyptians.' They believed in a transmigration of souls, and that after a spirit - hail w audered about for some thousand of years inhabiting t the btwlies of different animals, it would finally seek its origiual tabernacle,-and then, as the remarkable foresight of Mrs. Totxlles enabled her to re mark, "how handy it would' be to have it in the house." j But a demand for fertilizing pre parations beyond the auiiualover- i- ' flow of the Nile was unknown then, aud they, of course, could not fur see I a day when their precious mummies would lie ground up to enrich " a foreign soil. Now, when a poor, tired Egyptian soul, having accomplished a trausniigratojy ca reer of five or ten thousand years, during which it has made the round of the entire menagerie, ''would fain re-enter the old familiar .casket in which it had much fun, lo! it is not to be found, ami a writ of ba lsas corpus issuetl by the Supreme Court would be unable to turn up so much as its toes. The utilitarian sentiment of the nineteenth icentu ry reduces to naught a theory of existence evolved thousands of years ago ! i Those Egyptian embulmers were men of great importance ih their davi They put on as many airs as a fashionable undertaker tlos now and their charges wen; nearly as heavy, -though not quite. They graded their prices according to the wealth of the subject; If it was a king or a mighty warrior who was to lie packed away for futurity,' they work etl tiverhim for mouths ami mouths, injecting essential oils through t he arteries ami veiis, till ing the skin with camphor, 'bal sams aiid various salts, and loading the system w ith enough to start a newry graduated phamaceijtist in business. Sometimes the body was nicely: .painted, and striped and varnished, ami aiming the aristoc racy igold leaf ornaments in fancy scroll work -were added.
