FYfkctt Hitndred, from various parts of the middle
States and New England have settled there the past year
improved their places, and raised excellent craps. The
price of the land is at the low sum of $l5 to $2O per
acre, the soil is of the gest quality for the production of
Wheat, Clover, Chrn, Peaches, Grapes and Ye enables. IT
IS CONADERED TILE DE P.l RittlT SOIL IN THE
UNION. The place is perfectly secure from frosts—the
destructive enemy of the farmer. Cropsof grain ,grass
and fruit are now growing and can he seen. By exam •
ining the place itself, a correct Judgement can be form
ed of the productiveness of the laud. The terms are
made easy to secure the rapid improvement of the laud.
which is only sold for actual improvement. The result
- has been, that within the past year, some three hundred
houses have been erected, two mills, one steam, four
stores, some forty vinyards and Peach orchards, - planted
and a lar2o number of other improvements, malting it
a desirable and active place of business.

reversed,) ho has schools for his children, divinesercices,
and will enjoy an open winter, and delightful climate,
where revels are utterly unknown. Thu result of the
change upon those from the north, has generally been
to restore th em to an excellent state of health.
In the way of building and improving, lumber can be
obtained at the mills at the rate of $lO to $l5 per

TEE SWEETEST DEEAIi
Bow my loving heart has wandered,
Up and down tho vale of dreams ;
Filling up the wild recesses
Kith a thousand glory-beams
Making all the day .. so happy ,.
With some beihty-haunted thought,
That, from out the fleeting visions,
I bad by some magic caught.
Oh, I•vo had sweat dreams of childhood—
Dreamed my heart was light and free,
And I danced admen the meadow,
With a Fhont of childish glee.
(lathering the'spirry blossoms—
Chasing butterfly and bird—
List'ning to their mystic language,
Which my spirit only hoard.
And I've dreamed of halls of grandeur,
Whore in haughty pride I dwelt,
While a crowd Or:gold-god servers
Ever at my Suitt stool knelt;
Pearls and genteWere on My bOlorki,
On my hroterown of gold—
Ott ray , lipra gof g !ulneas,
Ea, within, a heart so cold.
Then Fro dreamed of gorpoweirtples,
Where tree shrluod the GoddeA Tame
And she gave ma wreaths of laurel—
Told me that my simple name
Echoed wide o'er land and ocean—
That each thought and slightest word
Had, within some human bosom,
Deep the font of feeling stirred.
But I've bad another vision,
That hes made my warm heart leap ;
Though 'twas but a wild illusion,
I would yet the memory keep;
For the world had failed to charm Me;
With its hollow-uttered pratee, ,
And my spirit sad and
Sighed for olden, freighter days,
&in a noble form stood near me,
And an earnest voice, but low,
Ac it simply whispered, "Darling,"
Through my belt% sent a glow ;
For I knob au heart, so weary,
Now had found a place of rest—
Like a bird that long has wandercri—
Beached at bat the dear home nest,
Oaring now adown the vista
Of the starry realm of dreams,
Here and there althrough the cloud rifts,
Bright some ray of beauty streams;
And as all these haunting visions
Come ut memory's gentle cell,
Still this last one Is the brightest
And the sweetest of them all.

BREAD UPON THE WATERS
The night was cold, and dark and
gusty; storm clouds were gathering
thickly overhead, and the ground be
neath was ICY, affording insecure foot

patiently and slowly, as he had done
since early dawn. lle was not young

one desilous of reaching home.—
Mime ? Had he a home? Two hours
had certainly elapsed since night had
thrown her veil upon the earth, when
overcome by the bitter, biting wind
he sunk at last into a.huge snow drift
by the way side, and in feeble accents
prayed aloud to God in his anguw, for
her whose whole earthly stay he WAS.
And 'He who heareth the poor when
they cry unto him' answered the
prayer of the desolate. A farmer's
boy came whistling merrily along,
Band like the Good Samaritan, stopped
at the sight of suffering humanity.
'Why do you ,lie here, sir? The
night is so '6(31 d that one must move
to keep from freezing. Come, I will
help- you.'
'lt is useless, I am too tired, too
faint to go further.'
'A few rods further is mY home. I
can help you walk so far ; and there
you can get featdd and warmed.'
'Haverhill—if I could have reached
there; but I—haVe-=no more strenght;'
and again his anguish burst forth:
'My wife ! 0 God! my poor wife!'
The boy threw a strong arm around
the man and raised him to his feet,
brit his limbs . obeyed ii longer his
will, and ho dank again upon the
ground. -For a moment stood our
Good Samaritan, as in thought; then
stripping off his overcoat and wrap
ping it around the fallen one, with a
be back soon, don't move,' be
hurried away swiftly towards home
and as he paused on the threshold to
shake off the snow from his feet; he
thanked God thathe was not the Wan
derer.
The New England kitchen, with
its pesiita - filled dresser, reflecting
and multiplying the genial blaze of
g
the ldheaped fire-place, its high
backed, rush-bottomed chairs grating
as they were moved over the neatly
sanded floor; its massive beam run
ning midway of the ceiling across the
room, and its many doors, leading to
all sorts of rooms and stairways, is a
picture familiar to many. The far
mer, to stout and tall, with cheeks
blushed by the sun, and huge hands,
browned and hardened by honest toil,
with heart as stout and huge, but not
hard except in outward seeming.—
Such a kitchen stepped our youth in
to, and such a man sat in the warm
est corner of just such a fire-place,
and, looking at the new corner's glow
ing cheeks, said pleasantly :
'The wind gives you good color,
boy.'
'Yes, father,' rubbing his cheek,
'they do burn some—father ?'
ilAre 1.1
heard you tell Jones, to-day, that
you could trust me with all you had;
will you trust me with old Moll to

'So you have ears, air. Well, *tat
want you with Moll 7'
'Togo to Haverhill.
Its a freezing night, boy'
(lf knew that, sir—but *ill you not
trust me ?'
After a long jianse,, 'Yes, Moses ;
you. shall have Old Moll to go.to'HaV.:
orhill,' said the father ; but remem
ber, to morrow's work must be done.'
'lf you've arty fault to find to mor
row night don't trust me again,' and
the boy, turning to the cupboard be
neath the dressers, buttered a gener
ous slice 'Of bread, then left the roorA
with a small pitcher, and returned
with it brimming full of eider, his fa
ther elbsely noting all as he smoked
away his pipe, the New England fati
iner's inseparable companion. Mo
ses next went out andharuessed, thou
returned to the kitchen for the bread
and cider.
'Why not eat that hero, Moses ?,
queried his father
'Oh! I'm not hiimirY; I haVe had
some supper, you. know ; good, night,
father,' and he hurried away.
'Good night, my boy. Whore's
your coat? he called out I but Moses
i'VaA too far off for any other reply to
reach . 'Cho querist's ears , "than' 'All
light ?'
Moses found the wearied where lie
had left him, and, springing/rota the
sleigh he said :
'Hallo, sirl you said you were faint
—here's some of our cider, and if you
can sit up and drink it, and eat this
bread, you'll feel better;' and here's
old Moll, ready to take you to Ilayer
hill. There, don't talk but eat. It's
awful cold, and it's a long way to
Haverhill,—and stand still, Moll I'
So he went on, bobbing now here
and now there, and talking as fast as
he could, so as not to hear the Poor
man's out-pouring of gratitude as he
ate, and drank and was refreshed.—
With sortie `dificulty the stranger was
seated in the Sleigh and supported by
his companion's strong arm, the pair
rode in almost total Silence through
the increasing darkness to their jour
ney's cud; and then brief were the
spoken thanks, as if the heart were
too full for utterance. The blur of
midnight was past when MosoS reach
ed his home and laid him down to
rest, but his sleep was sweet and
sound too sound for dreams.
Years flow by and Moses had fol
lowed his father's corpse to the.buri-
ground, and left his country home
to tdil for fortune. And slowly, but
an*, did he win favors of the fickle
goddess. To him, as to all, came
dark
days, and creditors clamored;
but light came at the darkest hour;
his creditors were silenced, he knew
ndt why. lie felt ill, and when fever
Wasted and strengthless he rose from
his bed, there came to him from he
knew not where, a hamper of the
choicest liquors. He married, and on
the wedding day Mrs. Moses received
an envelope containing only a fifty
dollar_bank note _from_ IA o_kneNti--not i
whotri; He who had befriended the '
unkndsVn friendless bad, in his need,
raised up to slim au unknown friend.
. One Tittle helpless innocent God
gave him, and after his birth the
world grew fairer, the sun Shone
brighter and life became sweeter to
our Moses. And cheerily, one bright
frosty morning, be kissed his two lov
ed dues a fai;ewell for the day, as bu
siness called him some miles distant.
In these days of iron and steam a
short hour will whirl us lone, miles
from home, without the tedium of
watching mileposts or guide boards.
So Moses (ought we not to say Mr.
Moses, now that he
,has not duly
reached Man's estate, but possesses a
wife and owns a baby ? I think so.)
Mr. Moses soon reached his place of
destination, and, ere he proceeded on
his way, he entered a hotel in the
rear of the depot, for the double pur
pose of making inquiries and warm
ing him Self. An old gentleman pass
ed hint on the steps and scanned him
eagerly, than turned and followed
him in.
'Sir, T. address Mr. Mates—,.l be
lieve ; do you remember me ?'—said
the stranger.
‘I do not, Sir ; lily name is Moses
tr presume not,' continued the old
gentleman ; 'some years ,have passed
since we met, twenty, at least, and
we were both that much younger,'
and he passed his hand through his
long white hair; (my - name is Price
—will yon dine with me ?'
'Really, sir, my businbss is pres
sing.'
, So is my invitation. -I cannot be
refused: Name the hOur if you will;
but dine iirith me to-day you must,:
and the peremptory words were
spoken so kindly, and the stranger's
grasp was so friendly that a refusal
was impossible. The hour was nam
ed, and, promising to meet there, each
went his way.
Much did our friend wonder, as, af
ter his business completed, he retrac
ed his steps to the hotel and
there found the gray haired
stranger waiting in a sleigh to which
were attached two magnificent bays.
A five or six minutes' ride over the
crispy snow and they die:* up before

said :
