About two-thirds of all the land in England is devoted to grass, either for hay or pasturage. Their grass and grain fields are much infest ed with noxious weeds; more so than the lands of our country it requires a vast amount of labour, by ham! wteitinr, an employment al which you see many engaged, to keep down those foul inlrudois. Among ihcse noxious productions, the Hitttrr Cup is perhaps the tnost common. Tho Sorrow J'limlain i 'abundant every where, and the Wild Poppy abounds especially in the Nmthern part ol the Kingdom. Hut the most dreaded of their noxious weeds is the Siuintli, having a root like the Horse-radish, and is very hard to eradicate from the soil. The cottages of the English Farmers are Unusually small, built of brick, and are com fortable without elegance. The Englith peo ple are fond of flowers, and hence you rarely e a collage, however humble, that is without the adornment of cheerful flowers around it. The improvements in the culttvati ni of the soil in England and Scotland have been im mense within the lnt lew years. This is not only shown in the draining of large bodic of MH mamh and fresh Aog Ltnd, antl the culti vation of dry moorti ami hralh; hitlyrio thought impracticable to the hand of a agricul ture, but in a more appropriate and scientific management of old antl long cultivated soils.

Every portion of England is highly im proved, nevertheless there is a vast difference liere as elsewhere in the productiveness and Bdanta'ion of the soil on different farms and 'u different sections.

We never esteem ed a Woman the less on hearing her say, " I have a good husband ;" wc never thought a man wanting in dignity, who spoke of his wile being dear lo him, nr quoted her amia bility of industry us worthy of example be fore others.

Yet aniids't all this show and adorning has the proud wife sal, the choicest piece of furniture there for so her husband regards her. Formal and stern, he has thrown around her the tlrnpcrv of tils chill heart, and it has folded about her like marble. She is ' my lady," and nothing more. No outbursts of affection in the firm of sweet praise, fall upon her cars yet pen dants of diamond drop therelrom, but their shining is like his love, costly and cold. VAe have heard such a ons say, in times jonn by, "all I'm wealth, all ibis show, and pride of .station would 1 resign, for one word of praise front my husband. He never relaxes from the lofiiucM wliich ha made him feared a mong men; he never speaks to me hut with measured accents, though he turrouuds me wilh luxuries."
