BROAD Toe, July 17, 185(1. bEArt GLOBE :—Carpet-sack in hand, the other morning, I escaped into the B. 'l'. one car nassenger train, with a voice calling after, "Going to Bedford ?" " 0-p-h," I responded., flattered with the putative fashionableness of visiting " the Springs." I - wouldn't lose the prestige of it, and mean to go before all is over, for the sake of variety, and to report progre3s : but mean while have met a hayfield 1:3 - the way, and concluded to live out this week in clot er.- 1 - 11 o; cr is a strictly vegetarian riici, end mi : lit be supposed inconipa tilde with the gastron omic requirements of Fremont and ii fellows accustomed to masticate mule and luxuriate in dog-soup. But intense regard 11,r truth obliges me to explain that the phrase, which is a common one, about living in clover, is only used. metaphorically. Perhaps with the exception of "Nebuchadnez•,,ar, king of the Jews, Whb pulled off his stockings to lint on his shoes, there has been no human beiirg whose mem ory is now extant, who literally did eat grass. • Having rendered the first statement coin prehensible about the hay, it is perhaps due that a word should be said of the:field, which, not to be disingenuous, can hardly in justice be styled a common hayfield. In fact, lam now tracing these lines reclining magnificent ly on the shady side of a rye-shock. Let not that shock you with misgiving as to the wri ter's -veracity. Paradoxical as it may seem to talk of epistles from meadows composed in the very shadow of rye, you should nut make wry faces on suspicion, nor shake your head ominously, as though you feared your corres pondent might be lying under the influences of old rye. To avoid circumlocution, the case stands thus—and you shall accord me some ingenu ity in being able to explain the matter entirely to your satisfaction. Last night, I watched• the moon rise over Grave Mountain, `• round as the shield of my fathers." I slept in a farm-house, and awoke to the music of grinding scythes. I sprang up, freshas a lark, with the ex clamation, "I will do it!" —The narrative intensifies, and we must put in the short paragraphs. (Short para graphs are; " fat," as the printer will under stand.) What was proposed to redone, was to make hay—to make it even (as the aphorism goes) while the sun shined. I did so. And - the consequence is—blisters. I had 'been visited with a dream of early days—a blessed morning dream of that golden time of boyhood, when the hayfield loomed up 'glorified in fancy,, dearer far than fabled Garden of Hesperides. And„lo the realization. I have been to and gone and did it. Nor do-I regret. ' I can iiosv gntO the" Springs a conscientious invalid—have `i wounds:and bruises." But let none insinuate ought about weakness of the brain.: or let them bave:this . for such te merity,—there is a dryness of the soul; indi cated by thickness of the skull, that the at trition of -"many waters" cannot cure, nor all the dienching billows of Time's majestic river.-. • ••;: . But this is digressing. • To return, as before stated, I have had a time of it. " Immediately after:higlareakfast, I found myself, "with buskins"gemmed in deW," lciwing after the mo*ers. I yielded .to the suggestion of one, and tetik his scythe. At first, I have little doubt, it was done. awkward ly; at least, so it was said. :But, "man is a creature •of imitation," and. I soon laid over the " dead loads" of timothy. I mowed a broad swath•. '•• - • ' The sounding blade . cut through a black snake; but I went on—triumphantly- on.— . 89entit with a rush, Then came the "ten o'clock piece.'" That stopped inc. Immemorial ten o'clock piece I honor thee. The Romans ate lout twice da:; - :.Ve can afford it oftener. Hence the peculiar beauty of our institutions, transcemiing _all of " Gi•eek or Roman fame—of pricelesr worth to the lean Cincinnatus of the West. O? Globe: the ten o'clock piece was not sent back to the &use untouched. On the contrary, it wasn't sent back at all. We were not dyspeptics=not we. •But we sent the basket back. Then came a change over the spirit of my dream. I thought of Burchell as he wooed his Sophia whilst raking up the windrows ; and of all the clear family of Parson Prim rose. Blessings on thee, forever, Oliver Gqd sMith, fur the truthful creation (truthful in natural glory,) of thy Vicar of ifrahefield.- Unforgotten Moses• Primrose, thou bloomest in the aromatic Eden of letters immortally °Teen. • - I went to raking hay—Arcadian pastime L--- with a nut-brown maiden, a real live one, "to bring in the other side." Dinner was got over, and the middle of the afternoon reached in tranquility. Yet we raked, whilst great crlobules of sweat rained down the glowing cheeks of the rustic maiden lvho brought in the other side. Then . was I sore stricken with blisters in the dexter and the sinister paw, and even upon several of the digitalS. I surceased.. The dream was ended. I gazed upon the receding form of the maiden toiling her way down the assymptotean vista of two long windrows. I-vamosed, cut, ab squatulated, left incontinently. I challenged the.youngest boy about for a game at mumbley-peg; classical amusement, but he couldn't indulge—had prior ,engage ment to rake after "the wagon, a few days, a few days." .With portfolio and Prince's Protean pen, I sought the cooling umbra of this shock of rye, falling like " the shadow of a great rock 'in a weary land." And now it is time that it should be more fully explained why this is to be, respected as a letter from a hayfield. You must not ask, if it is that I remark anything green ; for hay is dry, but less musty than such attempt at wit would be. It is simply because .eleven twentieths of this field is in bona fide clover, and the remainder in rye. The clover is in the majority, and the Constitution democratic. That settles it. But if there be any doubt upon the mind of the most fastidious as to the logical correctness of the position here maintained, I will adjourn dyer to an oak be yond the rye margin, and close. But first, one look at this landscape. We (the rye and I) are in a ten acre enclosure upon that side of Broad lop which slopes to ward Plank Cabin Valley. The name is not poetic ; but the scene is beautifully grand.— From Terrace to Sideliug Hill and miles northward, in this harvest time, outspreads a cloth of gold, with mosaic of forest green.-'--L- ' Befc.re us and beyond the valley ,of Little Trough Creek, is the irregular outline of Rocky ilidge and the loftieft summit of Broad lop, one enwoven mass of living verdure ; and, beyond Huntingdon, the hazy limit of Jack's mountain. The Broad Top tourist who stops short at Saxton and Coalmont, sees trestle-work at the itaystown Branch, and the black mouths of ;:undry stibterraueous excavations, besides " bumping" five miles free gratis : but he has iwt seen the monarch Broad Top in slyeeping robes of emerald and gold, as I sec him cradled in his stately arms this summer af:reruoon. The great, fiery, lovely sun is sinking west erly, znol th > shade of the rye-shoek is lost in the mammoth shadow of the mountain. Its m is creeping slowly outward over farm-house, and orchard, and' field ; until, even as I write the words, the splendor fades from the hill-top's, and Earth, the mighty-mo ther, kisam good evening to the beneficent Day-god.

An old-line Whig State Convention was held in Kentucky two weeks ago. A reso lution calling upon . all old-line Whigs to support Fillmore for President was defeated, —only one county voting for it. A resolu tion, advising every g to vote for which ever candidate in his judgment is best, was adopted. A Old one.—We laughed heartily the oth er day when a friend from one of the town ships in this county related the following in cident to us. It actually occured. A Know Nothing having taken it upon himself to' be rate James Buchanan, and the Democratic party in the usual style, a democrat apoke in defence, alluded to the long and useful pub lic services of James Buchanan, and many of his public acts, which made him eminently popular. "A great deal of his popularity was gained, too," said the democrat, "while he was Minister to England—" "It's a d—d lie," replied the Know Nothing, "Jim Buchanan never was a minister—he never preached a sermon in his life!" The intelli gent(now Nothing vamosed.amidst roars of laughter, believing that he had "won the day!" THE MURDER TRIALS.—The Commissioners of Blair county have employed Hon: S. Cal vin and Thad.
