A Farewell to Summer.
Farewell to the Summer, thy bright days have past,
And meanings are heard in the hurrying blast,
Like requiem vpiccs, they chnunt o’er thy bier,
And wnil for the loveliest child of the year. ‘'
As the wrung bosom yearns o'er the motionless clay
Whoso spirit has passed as a vision a\vay,
So mourns the sad Autumn, and sheds its cold tear,
On the perishing blossoms all withered and sere.
Why, why is there sorrow on yonder fair brow,
That yesterdoy laughed in its beautiful glow?
Has the arrow of Death cleft somo heart string in
twain,
.And sundered the links of affection's bright chain ?
The tears that are streaming so plentiful there,
Are shed for tho sunlmcr hud bloomlng-ond.fair—
They are gone, and ho weeps—Oh! ’mock not his woe,
For pure tho emotion that tenches their flow.
You may tell him of hope, of ttio Summer again—
Of the I*oBo and its fragrance, the singing bird’s strain;;
But lie’ll say that his dreams pf to-morrow have fled,
■His floworo have faded, arc w ithered and dead.
Who wonders that grief should ossaiUtis young, heart;
When he sees the bright creatures ho cherished de
part 1
Who wonders the tear drop should stream from hia
eyo, .
When he feels the cold breath of the frost-spirit nighl
Oh ! is there a being so callous and cold—
So lost to those feelings that cannot be told, •
As to smile o'er the ruin, the gloom and decay,.
That tears the lus.t vestige of beauty away 1j
•Tis true that we may gaze 1 on the thousand rich days,
That iningTe their splendor ’nealh Autumn’s blue
skies, .
xyiU inounl iip, of light.
As it drinks imtho bliss<rf\hc'gWrioua‘sight:' 1 ••
But yet in thc'bosbm atounlalii is thereat . f ,
Whose water is tinged with.shade of despair;
■lt Hows through the Capture that circles the heart,
And the spirit in vain bids shadows depart.
Oh I Summer, sweet summer, I cling to thee yet,
Thy visions of loveliness, who con forget 1
The emerald mantle that covered thee o’er,
Is the sport of the tempest, that-howls at-my door.-
’Farewell'to thy zephyr— r fnrcwcll to the song, <■
Whose music has warbled so sweetly along—
Thd dark cloud is spreading its gloom in the sky,
And I hid thee adieu, with a tear and a sigh. ■

“ClUldrei* conio to Piraycr.”
“O come, Ifct us worship and bow down; ; let us
kneel before our Maker.
The following beautiful lines were published in

Altar.’*
Come to the place of prayer!
Parents and children, come and kneel before
Your God, and with united hearts adore
Him whose alone your life and being aro, ' v

With one conseiit, the grcalful song.of praise,
With him who blessed you with so fair a lot!
Come in the morning hour!
"Who, hath raised you from the dream of night ?
Whose hand hath poured around die cheering light 1
Come and adore that kind and heavenly power!
Come at tile close of day 1
Ere wearied nature sinks to rest;
Come, let your sins be hero confessed ;
Como and for his protecting mercy pray.
Has sorrow’s withering blight
Your dearest hopes in desolation laid, •
And the once cheerful home in gloom arrayed 1
Yef pray, He con turn the gloom to light.
Has sickness entered in
Your, peaceful mansion 1 then let prayer ascend
On wings of faith, to that all-gracious Friend,
Who came to heal the bitter pains of sip.
Como tp the place of prayer ! .
At.morn, at night-r-in g(adncss,.or-in grief—
Surround the throne of grace; there seek relief,
Or pay your free and grateful homage there. '

Parents and children may meet at last.
When this your weary 'pilgrimage ia past.

Let no repugnance to a single state
Lead to a union with a worthless male; — r
Although ’tis true you’ll find many a fool

A single lady, though advanced in life, _
la much more happy than an ill-matched wife.
i-oppiiig the Question.
To us, gentlemen, this popping the question is often
no easy matter. It drives, I verily believe, a bashful
man almost into hysterics. _Many^cteJd-swcat,-inany
'U elfbking in tlio throat, many a knocking of the knees
together, have these poor rascals before they con sum*
mon,courage to ask a girl, to have them. But it is’nt
so, egad, with all—-some do it %Vilh easy impudence—
some do it,in a set speech—some do it because' they
can’t , help it—-and some never dp it at all, but get
married, as it were,-by instinct. Only give two lov
ers fair play,kick yourmatch-makingaunta tothodeUce,
and my life for it, the most demure will find a way of
being understood; even if like old Sir Isaac ; Newton,
they make love with their foot. As they get
cozier, they*wiU sit gazing in each other’s eyes,, until
at last, when they least expect it, perhaps the question
willpop out like a cork from a champaignc bottle.: It
■will pop itself. It’s all nonsense, thus lending young
folks a helping hand—take my\ word for'it, all they
wish is to .be left alone;, and'if there bo any confoun
ded youngsters about, let them bo put in bed or drown
ed, it -don’t matter-a fig wjiich. -If-lovers have no

simpleton that can’t tell whetoer a'girl loves him with
out a'Wotd on i Nodncadbrcsnrodcfity more"
than I do; but the most delicate angel of them all won’t
disguischcr little heart when you’re alone with her.—
A blush, a sigh; a studied avoidance of you in com
pany, and a low thrilling,'trembling of the voice at
times, when' no one else is by, tcll more than" the*
smiles ,of a- thousand coquettes. Ah! you-necd’rtt,

The Sod Tueasciit.— The Whig presses have
teemed with abuse of the Sub Treasury ever since
it was established. Although President Tyler joined
in this clamour in one of' his manifestoes, and signed
the act by winch it was repealed, yet we have never
seen pay thing in the shape of an argument against it.
But it stood in the way of a National Bank, and it
was necessary to undermine it in public opinion. It
has been overthrown, and what is the consequences 7
President Tylcrdccmsji—National-Bank—
tional, and recommends the establishment of a Gov
j eminent agency, exactly similar to the Sub Treasury
lin every respect, except tliat .it is permitted to sell

THE hessian flv
Extract from remarks on the'Hessian Fly,
reiul before the Calhoun County (Michi
'"’gan)' Agricultural; Society,, by the presf
dent. Judge Hickok.
‘‘The second embarrassment arises from
the-prevalence of the Hessian Flij , wii iell
has the last season destroyed, it is believed,
more than two thirds .of the wheat crop in
this country. - This formidable insect'was
first discovered on Long Island, about six
ty years ago,, ami was supposed to have
been brought from Germany in a ship which
transported the Hessian Army to Long Is
land during the Revolutionary War. It
has however, been ascertained that the insect
is indigenous in the United Stales.
“From the best accounts we have been a
ble to'obtain of- the Hessian Fly, it chooses
for its prey the weakest plant. In-this re
spect it resembles mbst other, insect depre
datory who prefer to make their repast on
the.delicate saccharine juice of plants of a
stunted growth.' It is a viperous, and usu
ally depusilcs its eggs in the gutter on the
upper leaves, and in some instances on the
under as well as the upper sides; In four
or five days (he eggs hatch, and the cater
pillars crawl down the leaf ito .its intersec
tion, with the stalk, where they may be
found beneath the sheafi so minute as scarce
ly to be seen with the naked eye. This in
sect has two gericratiolis in a y-car, distinct
ly marked, although in scattered instances
it may be found in all its various states of
existence from April to October. First gen
cration. In spring, the eggs arc lain in the
latter end of April or beginning of May, or
the first of June, they change' to the chrysa
lis or flax-seed state; at part of the
chrysalis are carried oft' the ficltl with the
grain, but most of them i;emain in the Stub
ble in their oliginal nest at the intersection
of the leaf with the stalk. 'The last of Ju
ly. or first of August, they take wings-and
dcpositeTlieir eggs the latter end of August
and in September. Second generation. In
a few days after the eggs are laid, they are'
hatched, and the caterpillars pass into, the
chrysalis dr flax-seed stale in October, and
in this state they remain during tlie winter,
and appear with wings and lay their eggs the
latter end. of April or beginning of Mav. .
“The fly is not found, or at least rarely,
oh lands that are subject to earlier a,ml late
frosts, such as our prairies, or the high lands
on, the head waters of our streams. Uut it
would seem that the other parts of the State
must be particularly subject to its ravages,
and that there is iio variety'of wheat that
_<an long, rests tffh is-finmidable -enenly.-
"Preventative. —The preventativos ivhieh
aro most likely to be efficient, are not to
sow until October; in the spring of the year,
soon after the fly has deposited its eggs,
while the plants are still wet with rain or
dew, sow the whcafficld with rustic lime, 01-
feed down the wheat close to the ground., by
a drove of cattle, or w hat is better a flock
of sheep, sufficiently largo to perform the
operation lira Tew days—not to sow a field
of wheat adjoining one from which a crop
has been recently taken—plough under
wheat stubbles iti autumn—destroy all (ho,
voluntary wheat plants that appeal- on the
stubble.ground before October, by the use of
aMlrag or-in-some,other way, aml;:cultivale

made on (wo oilier persons. The result was
we belicvQ-a conviction on the minds of all
present that'(here is in reality a magnetic
stale, quite different from the ordinary emo
tions of the.human system. .
The arm of one lady was magnetised
while she was awake mid unaffected as to
the rest of the system. The arm .extended
horizontally, in a perfectly rigid state,.and
the medical gentleman applied a force to
bend it, for sonic minutes without success,
which he said could not have been thus re
sisted-even by the strongest athlete in the
natural state. Her wrist and hand were cut
with a'pen-knife until the blood Jlu'wcd,
without the least perceptible cringing or e
molipn on the part of the lady. We have’
certainly never witnessed any thing like the
power of such unmoved endurance in,the
ordinary state of the muscles.
-Claimiyance'bcing the great point in dis
pute, for it is now generally admitted by all
who have given attention to file subject, that
the magnetic state .can be'prnduced and is
not a deception, several experiments in this
matter were tried wills Mr. Johnson, which
were certainly productive ’of-very extraor
dinary results. It Inay be as well to men
tion that the lady was blindfold throughout
the-expemnenls.-and that they were carried
on solely by the visitors, Mr. Johnson not
interfering and remaining at a distance, and
part of (he time out of the way altogether.
She .told how many gentlemen there were in
the room, several of them having come in.to

FASHIONABLE SINGLE WOMEN.
A feature that in society here must bo
striking to Americans, is the great number
of single women. With us, you know, few
women live-far beyond their minority un
mated.-and those few sink into the obscuri
ty of some friendly'fireside. But here they
have an independent existence, pursuits, and
influence, and they are much happier for it:
—mind, I do not say happier than fortunate
wives and goodmothers, but than those who,,
not having drawn a'husband in the lottery
of life, resign themselves to a mere passive
existence. English .women, married and
single, have more leisure, and far more op
portunity for intellectual cultivation, than
with us. -The objects of art are bn-every
side of them, exciting their minds through
their sensations, and filling them with images
of beauty. There is with us,-far more ne
cessity, and of course opportunity, for the
devclopement of a woman’s faculties for do
mijcsti.cJifeflthaa- here; - buUbis,—L4h«tfc,- is
counterbalanced by woman’s necessary in
dependence of the other sex here. On the
whole, it seems to me there is not a more
loveable or lovely woman than the American,
matron, steadfast in her conjugal duties, de
voted to o lhe progress of her children and the
happiness of her household, nor a more
powerful creature than the English woman
in the full strength and developemcnt of her
character. Now; iriy dear C. a word as to
dr.ess fur the woman kind of your family.—
I do .not".comprehend what our,English
friends, who come among us, mean by their
comments on the extravagance of dress in
America. I have seen more velvet and

woubLtake all (he diamonds intlie U. States
to dress a Duchess for an evening at L -
house. Vou may say that lace and diamonds
are'transmitted luxuries, heir looms.(a spe
cies of inheritance‘we know little , about;)
Still you must take,into Jhfe account'the im
mense excess of their wealth over ours, be
fore you can have a notion ot the dispaVity
between us. The women here, op to five
i'nil-forty (and splendid women many of
ihem are up to that age) dress with,
fitness; aftey that, abominably. ... Women to
