BT T. S. ABTHrM.
T-V. R;ltE.tf.
Since my last meeting with Sirs. Ab
ercrcmbie, she bad been down in the val
ley; away down, in dark, gloomy,' ami
bewildering places. The hsd suffered
both aQiction and rniafortune ; heart
trials, that left a heart-ache behind, long
after the trials had passed. -
I remembered her as an attractive, in;
telligent, wordly woman, whose thoughts
rested, apparently, almost entirely in out
ward things ; a charming companion al
ways, in whose society the mind . found
pleasant recreation, if . cot interior
strength, I was now to meet her as one
who had known sorrow and adversity ; as
one who had suffered trial and pain ; and
one who had gone down in the valley of
humiliation and grief, and ascended again
into the open day.
"On which side of this valley has she
ascended ? said Tto 'myself. "On the
side from whidi she went' down, or on the
other side, where ways lead up to higher
mountains and purer regions V
' felt" some interest in the question.
Without sorrow, misfortune, or suffering
cf seme land, few ever rise out of . the
lower stratum cf life, but live on in poor
wordliness, drawing, from mere external
things, a gross aliment from which the
immortal spirit turns in loathtng. To
many, alas ! the discipline of sorrow
comes in vain. . They go down into the
alley, and wander there, in darkness
and complaint for awhile, but find cot the
paths leading up therefrom to the moun
tains of regeneration, that lift their green
summits beyond, up toward the blue hea
vens of God's love. In ascending from a
mere natural sorrow, in the pain3 of
which no spirituaWife is born, they return
on the side from which they went down,
to find the old brightness departed from
the sky, and the old beauty from the fa
ding landscape. Alas, for such ! They
suffer the anguish of death, but have co
joy in the birth cf sons or daughters, We
may hope that the cumber of such is
small ; that of those who go down into
the valley, the larger portion come out on
the other side, and dwell, in seme alti
tude, on the mountains that rise above.
These valleys and these mountains are
not a mere figure of speech. Their ex
istence is as real as the soul itself as
real as natural valleys and mountains, to
our physical bodies. And this leads to
the notice of a fact, which all persons of
true observation have remarked ; the ap
parent height and distance, at which some
of those who have passed through great
sorrows rnd misfortunes stand. We look
into their Eatural faces; their voices are
in our ears ; their hands rest in our ha nds
end yet there seems an almost immea
surable distance between us. We are
conscious that they have risen above the
meanly selfish of our nature; that they
are standing above us, and see ever a
broader spiritual lanc'scape than it is pos
sible for our eyes to reach.
These hare been down into the valley
of self-humiliation, and come up from its
sorrows and darkness on the heavenward
side. They. are ascending the celestial
heights; they are, as to spiritual states,
afar .off ad higher than we.
'Has my old if riend ascended on the
other side?" I asked myself, in eutici
pation of a meeting with Mrs. Aber
crombie. Yes, on the other side !" I was in
no doubt as to the truth, when my eyes
rested on her face, and so nnswered my
own-question. "Yes, on the other side !V
I repeated, as I held her hand, and look
ed into her calm, peaceful eyes, that
seemed as a deep well, in which yoa saw
only the reflection of heaven.
I had a distinct remembrance cf my
last meeting with Mrs. Abercrombie
three years before, and he"ld in ray
thought a clear impression of her state
and personality. Her face, with almost
every light word, rippled in sunbeams,
and her voice was musical with laughter.
She was witty, brilliant, critical and sar
castic by turns, but always interesting.
Even what she said at the expense of
others, provoked a smile You forgot,
in the ludicrous ideas that came into your
mind, the wrong inflicted upon another
even repeating her smart sarcasms, with
out reflecting oa their injustice and pow
er to do harm. '
Now, the old, sunny play of features,
and the merry thrilling tones, were gone.
The grave quiet of her roapaer, the pla
cidity of her countenance, and the low
measures cf her voice, gave, at first, an
impression of. sadness, as if she were yet
in painter darkness, or doubt. But I
soon perceived a quality of thought in her
sentences, that obliterated this impression-
If the sunlight of natural joyous
cess did not play in reflections over her
countenance, through the transparent tis
sues of her face you snw an inner light;
which drew its sustenance from the sun
cf divine light. If her voice did cot
break out in laughter, it had a tone cf
tenderness and sweetness to which it was
a stranger before. Affection and thought
had receded from a dependent interest
oa the outer world, and were cow dwell
ing in the true, substantial, and abiding
things of the inner world ; cot, however,
in any false, authoritic spirit cf separa
ticn from the world, but in an unselfish
life cf good deeds ia the world. : ,
While her conversation dwelt more in
states cf life, ..than :c external thiegs,
there was a beautiful regard for others,
ia all she said, in singular contrast with
aa indifference most palpably seen be
fore. No light witticisms passed her
lips ; no keen sarcasm, even upen the
evil; no wordy cf censure toward any
one. I noticed this with pleasure, and I
may confess, with rebuke. . She was
standing ca the other side cf the valley,
through which it might be my turn next
to pass the valley of suffering and na
tural humiiratioa was ascending a spiri
tual muunlain, and breathing, in a purer
air than swelled - my lunrs,- cr vitalized
the fclcad in my heart. rear her, though
I sat and "talked, I felt that, ' in' some
things she was afar eff and above me. '
Two years before, she had worldly goods
and troops of friends; now, she was poor,
neglected, forgotten by .many and yet,
she had risen to a higher place, and was
happier. She had been down in the val
ley, and ascended on the farther side ;
and they who would live the higher,
purer, better lifa that she is living, must
go down also.
There are some, who, in prayer and
self-denial, go down of themselves into
the valley of humiliation ; go down, we
mean, without the compelling power cf
aSiction or misfortune ; and these ascend
on the mountain side. Reader, will you
thus go down, ia a daily conquest cf evil,
through God-givea strength ? or, will
you, like Mrs, Abercrcmbie, hold on to
the selfish pleasures of natural life, until
the Father who chastens for good, break
your idols in pieces. It were better and
wiser to turn the heart, in a voluntary
denial cf -unsatisfying claim3 cf eatural
life, away from the world and its glitter
ing vanities,- than to suffer the bitter
pains that attend the death of our selfish
affections. These selfish affections must
be extirpated from the gardens cf our
hearts, before heavenly plants can grow
there; and so, in infinite mercy, our lov
ing Father uproots and remove them.
Ah! in what tears and groans do we ex
press our pain ! How we cling to, and
grasp after our fading good ! It seems
as if Egyptian night had fallen upon our
world. We are away down in the sunless
valley.". But, for the unsatisfying and
perishing good which is taken, the Lord
is reserving for us infinite and eternal
blessings. He causes us to go down in
to graves, but only that a resurrection in
to a higher arid purer life ; may follow.
He darkens the sun of cur sent uou3 and
worldly life, in order that we may lift
our eyes to tae higher heavens, where
shines forever the Sun cf Righteousness.
He leads us through a fearful valley, on
ly to show us the way to the mountains
of delight.
Let us be patient, hopeful, and confi
ding, when cur skies grow stormy, and
our ways descend into gloomy, uncertain
and dangerous places. If we look up
ward, if we put our trust in God, if we
turn our eyes toward the heavenly hill
tops, we shall not lose our way m the
darksome valley, but come cut surely on
the other side, where paths cf pleasant
ness and peace lead upward to the dwell
ing cf angels.
Dtfarf Cnerry Trees.
These are, in our opinion, destined to
be the trees cf the West. The long,
naked trunk cf the standard cherry is illy
suited to battle with the sudden extreme
changes of the weather cf our Western
Srates, and as a consequence, cherries are
among the scarcest of our Western fruit3.
Trees of a few years planting enly, if
not decayed and dead, lock as scarred
and maimed veterans who have passed
through the storm battles cf many win
ters, and are now lingering sad monu
ments of their career, amid the closing
scenes of a life cf conflict and trials.
Such facts afford little encouragement for
the continued planting of sadh trees, and
unless a remedy of some kind is adopted,
the cherry will become rarer frcm year
to year. -
' There are two remedies which will, in
a great degree, arrest the evils flowing
from our climate. One is, growing the
the trees as pyramids, precisely as we do
our evergreens, branching within a foot
or two of the ground, and the ether is
employing dwarfs only. The first requi
re more attention and skill than most
persons will give, and will therefore be
adopted only by the amateur, who confines
himself to a few trees morejfer pleasure
than profit.
Budded cn the Mahal eb s'ock. the
cherry, especially the Dukes and Morel
los, form small trees cr bushes, if pro
perly pruned, and are kept in that state,
so that the branches protect the trunk,
with the utmost ease. They beer the
second (or third) year from the bud, and
produce full crops in four or five years.
They should hi planted about eight feet
apart, though by occasionally root pruning
them, they may be planted a closely to
gether as five feet We prefer, however,
allowing them to attain greater size, and
planting them eight feet apart. Ia rich
soils the borer requires locking after.
Grown in this manner, the tender va
rieties, such as the Hearts and Bigar
reau3 are easily protected during the win
ter by covering with corn stalks cr straw.
The smaller branches are seldom effect
ed by the summer sun, and they .afford
sufficient shade for the .large branches
and what there may be cf a trunk.
The Morelb class cf cherries embraces
now some very fine varieties, and mcrel
lcs being the hardiest cf all the classes,
they are particularly suited to the West
ern States. Grown a3 dwarfs, we feel
assured that they will give Eztirfscticn.

- Birarr Apple Trees.
Five years hence, the dwarf apple will
be mere popular than at present. This
mode of culture possesses e:2 great ad
vantage over the dwarf pear, namely, all
the different varieties cf app!?3 succeed
well propagated as dwarfs, while wi:h thr
pear, but few continue to grew and flour
ish. We placed at the game time Li ad
jacent rows, ever a hundred varieties cf
each, selecting so far as was practicable,
those pears that grow best on the quince,
but cf course, taking many ia so large al
number, iL'at were quit unsuitable &
prominent cbject being experiment. They
have' both new grown four summers since
transplanting with the following result:
As was expected, the pears haTe ba
come much thinned ia the row, a part by
unsuttabieness, and a part by blight,
while many are stunted and feeble. A
considerable portion,' e ml racing such sorU
as the Buffum, Hardy, Superfine, Wink
field, Angouleme, etc., are in a vigcrcua
state cf growth, and bear abundantly.
This uneven result miht have beea
guarded against by the selection cf such
sens only as are here named, liable, how
ever, at all times to the blight.
Oa the ether hand nearly every appls
tree forms a fine, thrifty, bearing trees,
and the rows present a beautiful and uni
form appearance. A part are cn Para
dise, and a part ca Doucin stock. The
former are about five feet high, and most
of ihem, this fourth year, have bcraa
from a peck to a half bushel cf fine fruit,
and seme a bushel. The tree3 worked
on the Douctn, are six to seven feethijh,
and only a part have borne much, being
larger and more rapid ia growth and less
fruitful while young, but doubtless mora
productive afterwards because larger.
The soil is a very fertile and strong loam,
and has been well cultivated. On a pocr
or thin soil we should not lock for equal
success. We recommend, unhesitatingly,
to all who wish to grow apples ia gar
dens, to plant and cultivate dwarfs.
Where trees eihtcr ten feet are desir
ed, select the Doucin as a stock ; where
the ground is more limited, and smaller
trees are preferred, choc3e the Paradise.

Cameos.
Rome is cow the chief seat cf the art
of cameo cutting, two kinds cf which are
produced those cut in stone and those
rut in shell. The stones most valuable
for this purpose are the oriental cnyx and,
the Eardonyx, provided that they have at
least two different colors ia parallel lay
ers. The value cf the stone is greatly
increase for this purpose if it has four br
five differently colored parallel layers, if
the layers are so thin as to assist in mark
ing the device cf the cameo, For ex
ample, a specimen cf slcne which has
four parallel layers may be useful for a
cameo cf Minerva, where the ground
would be dark gray, the face light, the
bust and helmet black, and the crest over
the helmet brown cr gray.
All such camecs are wrought by lapi
dary's lathe, with pointed instruments cf
steel, and by means cf diamond dust.
Shell camecs are cut from Urge shells
found on the African and Brazilian coast
and generally show two layers, cne white
and the ether a pale coffee color, cr deep
redish orange. The r-b-'ect is cut with
small steel chissb cut cf the whhe por
tion cf the shell. Shells adapted for
cameo cutting are dense, thick, and con
sist usually of three layers cf differently
colored shell material. Ia cne variety cf
these shells, each layer -is composed cf
very many thin plates, that is, Umirated,
the image being perpendicular ta the
plane cf the main layer, and each lamiuaj
consisting cf a series cf elongated prism
atic cells, adherent to their long sides.
Tbe lamims cf the outer and inner cells
are parallel to the lines cf growth, while
those cf the TliHe layer are at right an
glef to them. In another variety known
as the cowries, there is additional layers,
formed when the animal has attained its,
full growth.
