AGItICUIFiTIu: ~ Agricullun‘not only gives riches to can call her own—Du. Jamison. Punitive—Hone lialfthe zeal, energy and expense which have been exhibited for elcclinneering purposes were bestowed upon agriculture—if the people were halfas anxious to improve and beautify their fields, and half as angry with their thistles, thorns, and bad fences, as they are with their political opponents, we should have more productive fields, less complaint ofpoverty, mor‘e ability for cliarity,-and abundantly more good feeling. The real benefactor of mankind is he who heat to grow where one grew ; . . _ morning 'and evening theme, v and tofertiltze and Improve his farm is his prime tem- poral object. All national aggrandizement, power and wealth may be traced to agriculture as its ultimate source—commerce and manufactures are only subor- dinate results of this mainspring. We consider agri- culture as every way hsidiary not only to abundance, industry, comfortan fliealth, but to good morals and ultimately to religion. We regard the farmer, stripped to his employment and cultivating his lands, as belong- %to the first order of nobleman ,- we wish him bounti- . ’Iarvests, and invoke upon'hiin the blessings of God in all his undertakings; may,_peace be within his walls. ‘ Rooks, S'rouss, Can, ode—The use of stone and rock upon .s-‘Indy land is not sufficiently appreciated by Farmers.

Statistics of the (lie United Stu!cs.—The people Of the United States had, the last year, more. than three hundred and seventeen millions bushels of potatoes, and upwards ofthirteen millions neat cattle, which furnished them milk, butter, and cheese, doc. to the value ofmore than thirteen millions of dollars. They had at their millions of horses and mules and upwards of a1hundred and six millions bushejs of oats, and nine mi lions of tons of buy, on which to feed these and their‘other cat- tle. To sweeten whatever seemed acid or bitter to the taste, they had more than two hundred and eighty mil- lions pounds ol'sugar. Their land yielded to them for their indulgence, more than seventy-seven millions pounds of tobacco, and upwards oftwo hundred and seventy thousand gallons of wine with which to cheer their hearts. Such is the income of their soil only; and yetthey are over head in debt. T‘he‘k public debts alone, in a time of profounili peace, are estimated at near two hundred millions dollars. Surely there has been very bad calculation somewhere—Journal of Commerce ———-— PUSYISM—ITS PRINCIPLES AND PATRONS. Though the public journals have, for some time past, devoted so much of their attention to “Puseyism,” the rinciples which constitute that creed are not‘ generally liuown. It is. one of its leading doctrines that the authority of the clnircli is superior to that of the Severeign or the State, and that consequently the legislature has no right to interfere in ecclesiastical matters. The Puseyites maintain, that all children baptised by tlIesclIurclI are converted at their baptism, and that there can be no saving repentanhc for sins alter persons have reached the years of Iiiatirrity. They admit, howaver, that there may be reconversion by means of the Sacraments. They repudiate every thing of an evangelical nature, and place the whole essence ot're- ligion in the observance ofexternal forms. They are great sticklers for fuels, and attach greater importance to them than to the Sabbath-day. They deny the right ofthe com- mon people to road the Scriptures, unless they have first read the Common Prayer Book, and are prepared to in- terpret the Scriptures by it, instead of interpreting the Prayer Book by the Bible. They also set up tradition as a sure and infallible guide in all matters of religion, and view the inspired volume as subordinate in authority to _it. “ Puseyism” regards the Virgin Mary as, in one sense, divine, and consequently worthy of worship. The Puseyites further maintain that departed saints are to he prayed to, and that prayers are to be made for them. They believe, in other words,‘ in a modified form of [Mir ratory. Their opinions on ilic subject of trunsitlistantintion are substantially the same as those ofthe Rotnan Catholics. They look on all beyond the pale of the church with a harsh and uncliaritable eye, and though they do not go so far as to say that no dissenter can be saved, they assert the right oftlic church to compel conformity to her ritual. They do not disguise the fact, that if they were armed with the rcqutsitc civil power, they would exercise that power for the purpose ofextinguishingr dissent. Such are the leading principles of “ Puseyism.” The party has increased with astounding rapidity within the last five years. It is ,nn ascertained fact, that a great majority of the students of divinity in the University of Oxford are deeply imbued with the spirit of “Puseyism.” The leading clorgymcn in Oxford who have indentified themselves with the new faith are Dr. Pusev, Professor Hebble, Professor Sewell, and Mr. Newman. n Yorkshire its most zealous abettor is the Rev. Dr. Hook, of Leeds, son of Mr. Theodore Hook, the novelist. In London its most popular advocates are the Rev. Henry Melville, of Camden Chapel, Camberwell; the Rev. Sanderson Robins, of Char- lotte Chapel, Pimlico; and the Rev. William Dodsworth, of Trinity Chapel, Regent‘s-Park. In the Legislature onl two gentlemen have openly indentified themselves wit “ Puseyism,” namely, Mr. Gladstone, the member for New- ark, and Sir Thomas Acland, member for Devonsliire. The former hon. gentleman has written an elaborate work in its defence, umler the title of “Church and State.” But though the ‘two members just mentioned are the only members who have openly embraced “Pusey-ism,” it is well known that there are several others who are its private abettors. Sir Robert Peel is suspected of having some leanings that way, and «the Puseyitcs make no secret of the circumstance that, in the event of his coming into office, Dr. Hook, of Leeds, is on his list for the first vacant bishopric that may occur. The Puscyites have several influential organs in the public press. One morning paper, every one knows, has indentified itself with t ir cause. The “ Quarterly Review” has fairly com- mitted self with them The “ British Critic,” another quar- terly review of great influence and circulation, is entirely under their control, being edited by Mr. Newman, the edi- tor of the “Tracts of the Times,” and th of those Tracts, which hasexcited so much attention.
