It has said that everything has, at least, two sides, and plowing doea not of fer an excen'Jon. One Dartv mvm,."i 10 deep, or reap a poor harvest, r uvi. "Do it. and set no and anoth harvest at Those parties seem to do anupoacw, owing question ; bnt, in raamy, " . . , ii. nt tbe same thing, i ne nrst, dj aimulv intenua to say, not - a the nroceaa first commences, but that fol- lowiug this up will ultimate in little mere than the seed, even by the aid of manure. Tha anomul in. objecting to deep plnvingJ because it brows to tbe surface lor tne seed bed cold, stiff and inert matter, does not really imply that at some time, not remote, thia way be a beneficial proceed ing. Present results are looked at by one party, and future once by the other. If land, plowed shallow for a aeries of years, is deeply broken op in the spring time, mAing tho teed bed a subsoil one, it is pretty safe to assume that tbe summer crop, whatever it may be, will sot show any improvement over the previous one produced by shallow plowing. But sop poae the deep breaking up is done in tbe fall, allowing the frosts of winter and spring to act upon thia sub-stratum, molli fying and pulverizing it, does any experi enced farmer doubt that an added lease of fertility has been secured by the process t This is a fair statement of the question of shallow and deep plowing, and properly understood, there ia little or uo antagon ism between those who are regarded by some aa occupying antagonistic positions.- EFFECTS OF THE HEAT IN NEW YORK.

Many of the laborers employed at tbe Brooklyn navy yard, in the course of the forenoon, were overcome Dy exnausuon, and the iuperintendent towards noon is sued an order suspending all work until further notice.

The ancient -Pompeiiaus, who wcro wise in their day and generation, seem to have well understood the art ol making the most of everything. Their garde-.a were very diminutive, but by painting tlie aurroundine: walls with plants and laud scapes, their little area became indefinite ly enlarged to the eye of the observer, just aa onr ahop-keepera enlarge their pre mises and multiply their goods by the aid of mirrors. It is well to glorify our liw in this way a little by throwing open um windows and taking an enlarged view of all our blessings.
