One stealeth after , . How welcome thai one. Far away gleaming, -The dancers flit byi Here sit we dreaming Memory end I. Fair beads of amber, She couoteth the while, Ia the slill chamber, With sigh and smile; And as she te'leth Her Tosary o'er, Wild my heart dwelleth. On hours of yore. Some winged treasure. That flew from . my arms, Some perished pleasure, Each bead enbalms. All hopes I cherished, There find a tomb, One by one perished, - In glory and bloom. Sound harp and viol! Speed the bright hours! Life's sunny dial, They count by flowers. They the light-hearted! Ah! dearer to me, . One dream of the parted, Than all their wild glee. Still the past haunts me! 'Mid all hope can say, Memory chants me, A lovelier lay. INTERESTING TO APPLE GROWERS. In a letter published in the January number of the Horticulturist, the Rev. C. Springer, of Meadow Farm, Ohio, says. 'I hare gathered this year, from one acre of ground, about 160 barrels of the finest and fairest apples grown in this vi cinity or State, and about one barrel of the White Doyenne pears. The latter are now (Nov. 8th) in perfection. I had one Rhode Island Greening five inches in di ameter, weighing eighteen ounces and three quarters. My trees hare never beenju-immed, and I raise larger fruit than one who trims his trees. HOW TO INCREASE THE FRUIT FULNESS OF ORCHARDS. Alkaline, or araoniacal preparations have been applied to young trees, as well as to old ones, for the purpose of stimula ting their growth and acceleratiag their fruitfulncss, such as whitewashing their trunks and branches, rubbing them with roapsuds, and spreading round their roots, lime, gypsum, charcoal, soot, ashes, fcc. If you apply it to vines, or to young ap ple trees, there is nothing that contributes more to make them bear an abundance of fruit; nor docs this only produce a greater increase, but it 'also improves both the taste and flavor of the wine and apple. American Jgricaliurist. LIME ON APPLE TREES. An old farmer of much discrimination oserved to us recently that he had made it a regular practice for several years, to eow caustic lime around his apple trees ia the spring. He had noticed that a tree standing in the immediate vicinity of his dwelling, hd all at once put forth with renewed energy, and was at a loss for some time to know the cause. On inquiry, he found that a quantity of lime. rnica nad accidentally been spilled and rendered worthless by becoming mixed with the refuse on the stable floor, had been thrown at the foot of the tree, and to lliis as the principal cause, he immedi ately assigned the revivisence and renew ed fructification of the tree. Taking the hint from this accident, he purchased tweWe casks of lime and applied half s bushel to each tree, and found that it pro duced immediately beneficial effects. Not the health of the trees only, but the quality of the fruit was greatly improved. We would advise our readers to make a trial of this experiment and see whether it is deserving of the high recommendation it receives. Cultivator. . . MANURES. "A single grain of sa line matter in every pound of soil one foot deep is equal to 500 lbs. in the acre." This"' says a celebrated writer, "is more than is carried oft in forty years, suppos ing that the wheat and barley are sent to market, and the straw and green crops regularly returned to the soil in the shape of manure." Farmers are to apt to rely on what they have learned to regard as the recuperative or self-replenishing ener gy of the soil; a capacity, in fact, which the earth does nut, and cannot possess, unless under certain circumstances of cul ration, or a system of adequate vegetable returns for the draft made upon its pow-1 ers by. the crowing crop. Suppose a ' garden be cultivated for a series of years without a due application of stimulating manure; no one can doubt that 'exhaustion tvrvild be the consequence, and that this w ould be precisely in the ratio of the J quantity , or amonnt of crop produced. j Thi priuciple hold geud in hs apniica- tioa to agriculture generally. It is accor ding to the requirements of an inalienable natural law, aad can never be reversed LIME. One farmer saved his clover; from destruction by the slug or .snail, on land bearing a wheat crop, by a slight dessing of powdered lime, scattered through a clover 6eed machine late in the evening, when the insects were busy at work. Lime would be freqently useful if applied in this manner. Sown in moderate quantities on light land it will bring m white clover; it is said that it wdl destroy the fungus which causes the rot in potatoes. , REMARKABLE WEATHER. In tho year 301, the cold; was so in tense, that the Black Sea was entirely frozen over. In 451, the Pontus Sea, and the Sea between Constantinople aud Scutari in Turkey were entirely frozen over. ' . The Danube was frozen over in 4G2 so that a whole army crossed on the ice. The Black Sea was again frozen ever in 762, and the enow drifted to the depth of 50 feet. Carriages crossed the Adriatic Sea on the ice in 859, and in 860 the cold was 60 intense that cattle froze to death in their stalls. The Mediterranean Sea was so tickly frozen over that it was passable for carriages and horses, and merchandize was transported across it on ice. 1 133. This year the river Po was fro zen from Cremond to theses; wine burst the stisks containing it, and trees split with immense noise. 1216. The river Po was frozen this year to the depth of 16 feet. 1235. The Mediterranean was again frozen over, and a whole pine forest was killed by the cold. 1282. This year the snow was so deep in Austria, that houses were entire ly buried beneath it and many persons perished. 1292. The Rhine was frozen over, and the snow 13 represented as being of "an enormous depth.'! 1323. The Baltic Sea was frozen over so as to be passable for six weeks. 1344. All the rivers in Italy were frozen over. 1349, 1402, and 1403. The Baltic Sea was frozen over in each of these years. 1384. The Rhine and Sea of Venice were frozen over. 1423, 1426, and 1459. In each of these years the traveling from Lubec to Prussia was performed on the ice. 1620. The sea between Constantino ple and Iskodar was passable on the ice. 1670. The cold was intense through out Europe. 1G81. This year the cold was so se vere as to split whole forests of oak trees. 1690. Scotland this year was visited with an awful snow storm, which lasted for 13 days and nights, during which time nine-tenths of the sheep were frozen to death, and many shepherds lost their lives. 1692. Wolves came into Vienna and attacked men and women, owing to the intense cold and hunger. nijor m one or tnese years another great snow storm- visited Scot land, m which about 20,000 sheep and many shepherds were lost by a single uev snow. 1776. This year the Danube was fro zen over five feet thick below Vienna. Scotland was the scene of another ter rible snow storm in 1794, which is the most exlroordinary one of which there is any record. In one single night snow fell to the depth of eight or ten feet, and in some places the most lofty trees were entirely covered. By this one night's storm 17 shepherds lost their lives, and thousands of sheen, besides other ani mals, were destroyed. One farmer alone lost 1400 sheep. After the storm had abated, and the snow had somewhat dis appeared, there were found collected to gether (by its violence) in one spo', the dead bodies of 2 men, 1 woman, 45 dogs, 3 horses. 9 black" cattle. 180 h arcs anrl 1840 sheep. The above arc the most remarkable ac counts of the old world, and strantre.lv contrast with the weather of the present time; or even that of our own country since its settlement. THE DEAF AND DUMB.

MORE PROOF. Darlington, Beaver Co., Pa Februay, 1839 !1 35) Dr. D. JAYNE. Dear Sir. Mv little son, when about two months old, was seized with a bowel complaint. It continued for two weeks without inter mission, and notwithstanding the reme dies prescribed bv a respectable Phvsi- j cian, we gave up me cnuu a victim, as child we supposed, to a fatal disease. But I providentially heard of minitive," as an effectual "Jaynea Car cure for bowel complaint, aud immediately dispatched a messenger to a town seventeen miles off! for a bottle. By the use of this medicine, in less than thirty-six hour the disease was checked, and by its con stant use fer a few days, the child was restored to petfect health. Shortly after tins, there occurred a similar case in one of the families of my congregation. I prescribed "Jayne's Carminitive," and the result was a speedy cure. Ihe same child, owing: to exposure, when recently coming up the Ohio, was attacked by thai horrible malady, Croun. We landed in the night at Beaver Point, and when our fears were alarmed lKt the hoarse sepulchral cough was the forerunner of death, we gave him a lea- spoonfull of your Expectorant, and ap plied some liniment to the throat and breast; and before many minutes the hoarseness was gone, the child breathed freely and slept aweetly.

Mrs. TVinier. CpOR ANOTHER PROOF ADDED. The cures performed by Wistar's Bal sam of Wild Cherry, are really a$ton ishing to ihe world. The following we have just received from Messrs. Joslin and Rowe, Drug gists, in Newark in this State, to whom it was communicated by John Wimer, Esq. a citizeu of Burlington, : Lickin count', Ohio. . Burlingtov, O. D;c. J, 1843. Messrs. Joslin k Rowe At your re quest I herewith transmit to you a state ment of the case of Mrs, Wimer and child, as near as I am able to communi cate, which you are al liberty to publish if you see fit, as I feel a deifr to inform the world of the effects of the invaluable midicine called Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, to which, by the Divine bless ing, I am indebted for the restoration to health of my wife anif 'child. About five years ago Mrs. Wimer was attacked with a violent cough, pain in the chesi and side and symptoms of approa ching consumption. During ihe interval from lhat lime to some lime in February iasi, ene nan oeen treated by eminent physicians from Uiica, Sylvania, Homer Chatham and Newark, and with only partial relief of the most urgent symp tom?. About one year ago she eaught a violent cold, which seated upon lbs lungs, producing an alarming aggrava tion of all her previous systems. Her physician was senifor, and despile his best afforts she began to sink rapidly un der her disease. Cough, expectorant, and hectic, together with night sweats soon reduced her to a complete skeleton. In February last her attending physi cian deemed her case altogether hope less; a council was called, and after de liberating upon her cise uiiaiiii?io'i?!y pronounced her lo be beyond ihe reach of means, and expressed iheir opinion that she could survive but a short time, one or two weeks at farthest. She wsa at this time entirely confined to her b. J and scarcely able to articulate, except in wmsper. tier daily proxysms of coughing would last uninterruptedly from. inree to live hours, and so severe lhat wa expacled every proxysm would be her laat. The phyfisns in council orononnead her lungs, liver, kidneys, spine and mu cus membrane of the stomach lo be incu rably diseased. It was at this last extremity that wa happened to obtain a pamphlet Je;cribincr Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherrv. as applicable to lung affections. We imme diately sent to you and procured a bottle, and commenced its use al evening by giving her one teaspoon full, and "such was the surprising effect lhat she was a ble to pass a comfortable night without experiencing any paroxysm of coughing; and such was its ultimate effect, that, a!- ter taking five bottles, she was, contrary to the expectations of her physicians and every one who saw her, entire restored : to health, and since last summer has done the entire work of the fair.ilv. After the last attack of Mrs. Wimer. our youngest child, then an infant at tht breast, was taken down and rapidly sink mg with ihe same symptoms as iis me- ther, and having seen ihe li3ppy effect in the case of the mother, we were dis posed to make a trial of it for the child. and it was attended with the same feet success. pir- The above statement can be altcsied by our physician as well as our neigh bors and acquaintances, who mw Mrs. Wimer during the course of her sick ness.
