Salutations among Different Nations.
TRANSLATED FROM Tni FRBSCII-
The expressions used as salutations
among different j nations Lave, under
.their common aspect, something char
acteristic and interesting, even for the
most casual observer. '
In the East, some of these expres
sions savor in a inoro or less degree, F
the'ScriptuTesand of the serene and
' patriarchal sentiment of- tho inhabi
tants. One recognizes the immobility
, of these pastorli and warlike people,
standing aloof from all human progress.'
Nearly all have a foundation in reli
gious sentiment, and oxpress peace to
those to whom thty are addressed. The
Salutation used jby the AVah, 'Salem,'
or 'Shalum,' meanspcace, and is found
in tho word Jcrilalem. The Arab sa
1 lutes hisfriend thus, 'May you have a
happy morning;1! 'May God grant you
" his favors;' 'If God wills it, you are
: well. The last expression plainly be
trays their fanataicism.
-' - The Turks ha je a formula which can
only be used in a sunny clime 'May
ishman would iiivcr think of wishing
a friend a fine shadow.
- The. climate 4f Egypt is feverish,
' and perspiration lis necessary to health:
hence the Egyptjjin, meeting you, asks,
'How do you perspire.

in good order?' jasks the Chinaman, a
. touching solioitilde, which can only be
appreciated by 4 nation of gourmands.
'Good cheer Itgs the modern Greek,
in nearly the sairjo language that the
ancients were .wont to greet their
friends. A chartming salutation whicli
i could only have originated among the
happy, carclcss.Grceks.
- ' The Romans, jwho were heretofore
i robust, indefatigable andlaborious, had
i energetic salutatfons, expressing force
, and action: 'Slave,' Be , strong,' 'Be
' healthy;' and 'guidaysis,' 'What o
iiilVU Villi I'TlLt'li: AS V Will MIIIHIll ll
you?' or 'What, make you?'
The GenoeseJ of modern times, say
'Health and wealth,' which is very ap-
propMate for an active and commereiaf
"people
. ; -The Neapolitabi devoutly says, 'Grpw
. in sanctity;' and the Tiedmontcse, j 'I
am your servant.;' Tho 'How stand
you.' of almost 11 Italy, forcibly indi
cates the nonchilence of that suntiy
land., j ; 1
The SDaniardL I; sriravei hau?htv and
( ndifferent, wishes you 'Good morning,
to which we respond, 'At your service,
'8ir. Anotner paiutation 1 winch the
Spaniard uses, 'jGod be with you, eig-
. nor,' shows melange of respect for
' pno'a flelf and religious sentiment.
- Phe. ordinary jsalutation of the Ger-
. man is, n le gents : iiow goes ui
' and has vagueness partaking some-'
rhat of the dreamy character of the
German.' To bSd one adieu,, he says,r
fLeben sie whol'-U-'Live q uiet and hap
py .'' '., This last- plainly exhibits his
peaceful nature and love for the sim
, pie joys of life.
The travjeling Hollander asks, 'Hoe
Vart'sge?' How do you go?' 'TUc
j thoughtful, active Swede demands, 'Of
what do you think?' whilst, the Dane
"inore placid, uses the German expres
sion 'Liv veV iLlye well But tho
greeting of theole is best of all; &re
y6u happy? - i . - f
. The English 1 jiave the 'Good bye, a
corruption of the word 'Good be with
you, ana some otners; but that which
exhibits best the character ofthc Eng
lish, is 'How do you do?' as tho aotm-

"I7o more a Wayward Child."
The great revival of the last winter
has furnished innumerable incident
to whose touching interest? bo pe can
do justice. Many have been given to
the public, but byfar the greater num
ber are hidden away in Christian
hearts-, to be tearfully remembered
through life, and recalled, no doubt,
in eternity.
One such incident occurred in. a
seminary for young ladies in Western
Massachusetts. The school, aa well as
the entire town, had been greatly
blessetl. Many a thoughtless girl had
heard the still .small voice of the Spir-
hit. But some walked proudly on, no
ticing the revival my by a curling
lip and a scornful laugh, and among
them was Helen B - '. She was
a noble and interesting girl, of excel;
lent abilities, and an- amiable -disposition.
Yet while many 'about her were
coming to' Christ, she maintained the
same careless demeanor, evidently
'caring for none of these things.' It
was in vain to talk' with and to per
suade her: She could not even be in
duced to attend a prayer meeting, and
her companions at length ceased im
portunities, which effected nothingve
to annoy, and only prayed the more
earnestly, that God would'make His
strength perfect in their weakness4.
' It'wai the custonf of -the young la-;
dies to meet, for a fcATnfoments .each
evening, in their, several recitation
rooms, for prayer and other 4evotionr
a! exercises. One evenings near the
close of the term, after one of these
praying circles had assembled, the door
opened, and Helen B entered.
Her eyes were downcast, and her face
was calm and very pale. There was
something in her look which told of an
inward struggle. She to6k her seat si
lently, and the exercises of the meet
ing proceeded. Afewlineswcre sung,"
two or three short prayers were offer
ed, and then, as was their custom, each
repeated a few verses of somc 'favorite
hy mn. One followed another in succes
sion, until it came the turn of the new
comer. There was a pause, and a
perfect silence, and then, without lift
ing her eyes from the floor, 'shc.com-.
menced, j ' .
"I am a wandering sheep,
, I (lid'not lovo the CoUL"' f - r
Iler voice was loSv but distinct, and
every word, as she uttered it thrilled
to the hearts of the listeners She.rc
peatcd One stanza after another, of
that, beautiful hvmn. of Bonar, and not
an eye 6ave her own was dry,. as, witli
sweet emphasis, she pronounced the
last lines :
"Xo more a wayward child,
1 peek no more to roam ;
I lovu my heaverdy Father's voice
?I love, I love his home." .
Tltat simple hymn told 'all. The
wandering sheep, the wayward child
had returned, and there was joy that
night among the angels in heaven, and
among Christians on earth over one
more repenting sinner
Agriculture.
Preparation for Spring Cfrops.
The season of the year has arrived,
says the Southern Farmer; when the
labors of the cultivators of the soil are
to be directed towards making prepar
ations for the intended crop3 of the
ensuing year. Among the many, ob
jects which should demaad his early
at tention, that of plowing the land de
signed for corn is not tbe least impor
tant. There are many reasons why
the farmer should not delay this oper
ation till the spring months. He nas
leisure now to perform' it better, and
the land is generally in better order
f?r plowing than early in the spriug,
when the sou is so irequently in an un
favorable condition, until late in the
season, at which time the work has to
be hurriedly, and consequently imper
fectly performed, and in too many in
stances done when the land is much too
wet. Fall plowing for a corn or oat
crop ?ives to the. land the benefit of
the winter'? frosts, which -greatly aid
in properly pulverizing the soil ; and
also by exposure tends to destroy the
larfac of many insects which pufy upo n
the- growing crops. The utmost .care
should be especially exercised to guard
against all standing water ; on land
plowed in the fall or winter, j . If this
precaution is not observed, all thead
vantages of early plowing are lost.
All ditche3 should therefore bo .care
fully cleaned out, and surface furrows
opened for carrying off the water frCm
rain or" melting snows. These surface
furrows should in all cases be cut to a
depth of several inches below the depth
of plowing, so as not only to keep the
loose soil free from water, but also a
portion at least, of the subsoil. 1 1f this
necessary precaution i3 attended to,
the soil will be found early in sprras
in good condition for further.' prepar
atory culture for the reception of seeds
of any description.
Another operation of primary im
portance at this season of the year, is
the providing of ample and good shel
ter for stock of all kinds depart-,
ment of rural economy too often sadly
neglected in this , climate. We see
thousands of cattle which, through the
inclement season of winter, have fio
other protection from its keen blasts
and pelting storms, than the lee side
of a bush or a rail fence, where they
stand cowering and shiyering, with
tfceirtetifigtsKr
cold tiflnl, ,oj eovered Tfithfrotnnow
or icicfes. ' This il 'hotfdnly'a cruel
exposure to. the poor iaipimals, but oil
the part of the farmer 13 a saxl want
of economy, and the fruitful source of
the almost universal iccjmplaint heard

see every spring. Cattle or stock of
any description, well sheltered during

quire less feeding than when exposed,
so that the -practice has economy as
well as humanity to- recjommid it.
. The preservation and accumulation
of manures isuinothcx object requiring
the farmer's attention ring therfall
and. winter.. All subsfaoces suitable
for this 'purpose should be carefully
collected and husbanded, and ready
for application early inl the spring.
In this climate we do not recommend
the tilling up with straw! iix stables and
cattle yards, beyond what is necessary
for "the feeding and comfort of the an
imals. A better mode I we believe to
be, the application of all surpluastraw
'as a top dressing on clover or pasnre
land which can be made at intervals
during the winter when; the land is fit
for hauling oveR So jfchat when the
spring arrives, the lairgost "bulk of iia

Take Jare ef your Cattle. "
" y"e think it is not wep'to allow the
cattle to roam oyer the. fields too late
in the fall, browsing the trees, and
slavering with the old J -even if there
is no spew on. the ground. They may,
it "id true, pick up a part of their living,
but tjiey witste their'manufe, .and get
roaming habits. .TJieyhad better be
kept in the ' )arn and yard, and fed
fron? the ample gtore-Thich has been
provided for them-. Take good caro
of them in the early part of the sea
son, and get Chem accustomed to quiet
habits, and they will tkjt fret oft' the
flesh which they htive accumulated in
the pasture. Give them plenty of
salt, a little mesSof rooits daily, and a.
f adder of cornstalks 6r shucks. A;
variety of food is agreeiable to' them,
and promotes their appetite. Cattle
that are being stall-fed Irequire partic
ular attention. Do not surfeit them
with too large a quantity of food.
Give them" no -more at 6ne time than
they will eatup clean. Pumpkins and
apples, with snorts and meal, make a
good Variety of food. Use up the per
ishable articles first. If your hay is
not of the best quality, be sure and
cut and moisten it, and mix. the meal
and shorts with it. Giye them plenty
of good bedding and k.ciep them clean.

Curing Hams. j
As the time is ,t hand for
curing
hams,, a few words will pot be out of
place m regard to them. ' I he legs.t)t
hogs, short in. the hocks, are the best
for hams, and should be chosen in pre
ference to lanky legs. ! They may be
salted by immersion in ja clean pickle,
containing, a dittle sugar and saltpetre
dissolved, "or they may be salted by
rubbing ground solar evaporated salt
over them, turning thjjm every"" day,
and giving them a good rubbing. A
little sugar and ground' , black pepper
aidded to- the salt" will much , improye
the flavor of the meat, j It -requires a
bout a month to salt hams by the wet
process, and three weeks by the dry
system. At the end- pf this period
they.should be hung xrpffor a few days
to drip, and then they are ready for
smoking. Much depend on tne mater
ial used for smoking them, so as to se
cure a sweet flavor. Whatever fuel is
used, for this purpose,
one condition
tehould never be overlooked : it should
be perfectly dry, or else it will be lia
ble to impart a bitter taste to the meat.
Dry-corn cobs, and same dry sweet
hay are superior to all other, agents
that we have seen employed for smok
ing beef and hams.

the7saine manner as thefse of pork, and
