Wbeu disappointment fills thy cup, Undaunted, noby, drink it up Truth, will prevail and Justice show Her tardy honors, sure though slow, Bear on—bear bravely on! Bear on ! Our life if not a dream, Though often such its mazes seem ; We were not born to lives of ease, Ourselves alone to aid and please. To each a daily task is given, A labor which.shall fit for Heaven : When duty calls, let Jove grow warm, Amid the sunshine and the storm, With Faith life’s trials boldly breast, And come a. conqueror to thy rest. Bear on—bear bravely on ! The Knickerbocker for June has a notice of the poems of Charles Swain, with some extracts, from which we take the following verses on “Mary:” The graceful and the beautiful, The gentle, kind, and airy, Together met to mould the form And gift the mind of Mary. There’s nature in each careless curl, In every grace a moral ;• Her mouth—’tis Cupid’s mouth —sweet girl, And full of pearls and coral. She’s like the keystone to an arch, That consummates all beauty ; She’s like the music to a inarch, Which, sheds n joy on duty ! All happy thoughts and feeling rife Seem evermore to guide her; The very ills and cares ot life Forget themselves beside her. Each sweet expressive glance appears Of Nature’s best election ; It took the world six thousand years To perfect such perfection ! All gifts divine that could combine, All charms $f nymph or lairy, - Agreed to grace one beauteous face, And witch the world witlrMaryi She speeds as if with wings so fleet No bird’s could e’er surpass them; Yet none can ever spy her feet,- Though ’tis believed she has them ! She lends a spell to every scepe, Her step makes winter vernal ; A something half divine, between The earthly and eternal! The Young Widow ;.oi% only Thir ty-tkree. A census taker going his round last fall, stopped at an elegant biick dwelling house, the exact lo cality of which is no business of ours. He was received by a stiff, well dressed lady, who could well be recognized as a yfidovv of some years standing. On learning the mission df her visitor, the lady invited him to take a seat in the hall. Having arranged himself into a working position, he inquired ior the number of persons in , the family of the lady. “Eight sir,” replied the lady, '‘including myself.” ; “Very well—your age,madam?” . “My age, sir,” replied the lady with a piercing dignified look,: “I conceive it’s none of your business what niyjage might b£—you’re inquisitive, sir.” “The law compels me, madam, to take the age of every person in the ward—it’s my duty to make the inquiry.” “Well, if the lawicompels you to ask,l presume it compels me to answer. I am between thirty . and forty.” “I presume that means thirty-five?” “No sir, it means no . such thing—l am only thirty-three years of age.” “Very well, madam,” putting down the figures, ‘just as you say. Now for the ages of the chil dren, commencing with the youngest, if you please. 5 ’ “Josephine, my youngest, is ten years of age.'* “Josephine—pretty name—ten.” “Minerva was twelve last week." “Minerva—captivating—twelve.” “Cleopatra Elvira has just turned fifteen.” “Cleopatra Elvira—charming—fifteen.” “Angelina is eighteen sir, just eighteen.” “Angelina—favorite name—eighteen.” “My eldest and only married daughter, 6irfAnna Sophia, is a little over twenty-five ” “ Twenty-five did you say, madam ?” “Yes sir, is there anything remarkable in her being of that age ?" “ Well, no, I can’t say there is, but is it not re markable that you should be her mother when you were only tight years of age?" • About that time the census taker was observed running out of the house, closely pursued by a broomstick. It was the last time he pressed a lady to give her exact age. To the Girls. BT DOW, in. v Ladies, you caged birds of beautiful, plumage, but sickly lookB; you pale pets of the parlor, vege tating in an unhealthy shade with a greenish white complexion, like that of a potato sprout in a dark cellar—why don’t you go out in the open air and warm sunshine, and add.lustre to your eyes,bloom to your cheeks, elasticity to' your steps, and vigor to your frames? Take early morning exercise— let loose your corset strings, and run up a hill on a wager and down again for fun. Roam in the fields, climb the fences, leap the ditches, wade tne brooks, and go home with an excellent appetite. Liberty’ thus exercised and enjoyed, will render you healthy, blooming and beautiful—as lovely as the Graces and asrprolific as Devera. The buxom, bright eyed, rosy cheeked, full breasted, bouncing lass-—who can darn a slocking, mend her own frocks, com mand a regiment of pots and kettles, feed th'e pigs, milk the cows, and be a lady withal in company, is just the sort of a girl for me or any worthy young-man to marry; but you, ye pining, lolling, screwed up, wasp waisted, doll dressed, putty-faced consumption mortgaged, music-murdering, 'novel devouring daghters of fashion and idleness—-you are no more fit lor matrimony, than a pullet is to look after a family of fourteen chickens. The truth is, my dear girls, you want, generally speaking, more liberty und less fashionable restraint-j-more kitchen and less parlor—more leg exercise and less sofa—more pudding and less piano—more [frank ness and less mock modesty—more corned and less-bishop. Loosen yourselves a liltlej more liberty and less restraint by fashion. Breathe the pure atmosphere of freedom, and some thing nearly as lovely and beautiful as the God qf Nature designed. One. j One hour lost in the morning by lying in bed, will put back all the business oi the day. One hour gained rising early is worth one month of labor in a year. ; One hole in'a fence will cost ten times as; much as it will to fix it once. ! One diseased sheep will spoil a flock.

Tflie reader will please not bother us with any questions. A few days ago, a Connecticutjbroom PW er , 8 shrewd chap, from over amongst the steady ha is, and wooden clocks, and school-masters, and ot r fixins, drove through our streets, heavily laden with corn brooms. He had called at several stores and offered his load, or even a. small portion or u.j when be told them he wanted cash, and nothing else in payment, they had uniformly given him to , understand that they -rad got brooms enough, and that he might go fortfier. At length he drove up to a large wholesale establishment on the west side, and not far from the'bridge,' and once more offered bis walks. Well,” said the merchant, u I want the brooms badly enough 5 but whatjwiil yon take in pay?” This was a poser. The pedler was aching to get rid of his brooms: hedespised the very sight oi" his brooms; but he would sooner sell a single broom for cash, than the whole load lor any other article—especially any article which he could not as readily dispose of as he could brooms. After a moment’s hesitation therefore, hejscrewed his cour age to the sticking point—(it required some courage after having lost his chance of selling* his load a, half a dozen' times by a similar answer) —and frankly told, the merchant that he must have crisb. Of course the merchant protested that cash was scarce, and that he must purchasje, if he purchased at all, with what he had in his store to pay with. •He really wanted the brooms, artd he did not hes : itate to say so; but the times were hard, and he had notes to pay, and he had goods that must be disposed of.-. ~ J Finally, he would put his at .ust price the.sake of trading, and would take the whole load of brooms, which, the pedler bad labored so unsuc cessfully to dispose of. “So,” said he to the man from Connecticut, “unload your brooms, and then select any articles from my store, and you shall have them at cost.” The pedler scratched his head. An idea was there, as the seqael shows plainly enough. “ I’ll tell you what it is,” he answered at last, “just say them terms for half the load, and cash for t’other half, and I’m yo'ur man. Blowed ef I don’t sell out, ef Connecticut! sinks with all her broom stuff the next minute ”| The merchant hesitated a moment, but finally he concluded the -chance a good one. He should be getting hall the brooms for something that would not sell as read ily; and as for the«ost price, it was an easy matter to play gammon in regard to it. j The bargain was struck; the brooms were brought in. The cash for half ol them was paid over, j “Nowwhat wijl you have for the remainder of your bill T asked the merchant. The pedler scratched his head again, and this time most vigorously; He walked the floor—whistled—drummed with' his fingers on the head of a barrel. By “and by his »reply came— slowly, deliberately: “ You Providence fellers are cute; you sell at cost,, pretty much all of ye, and make money* I don’t see how it 1 is done. It must be that somebody gets the worst of it. Now’l don’t know what your goods cost, barrin ’ one article , and ef I take anything else, I may get cheated. So seeing as it won’t make any difference to you, I guess I’ll take brooms. I know them like a book, and can swear to just what you paid for ’em.” And so saying the pedler commenced reloading his .brooms, and after having them in his possession again, snugly deposited half of his former load, jumped on his cart, with a regular Connecticut grin, ami while the merchant was cursing his impudence and his ow r n stupidity, drove in jseareh of another customer. —Providence Post, \ ' The New Dress for Ladies. What Mbs. ' Partington 1 thinks. —“A new .custom for ladies,” said Mrs! Partington, when a friend spoke to her about the proposed innovation in dress. The sound of “ costume ” came to her ear indistinctly and she slightly misapprehended the word: “a new custom for ladies! I should think', they had better reform many’ of their old customs before they try io get nevy ones.— We’re none of us better than we ought to be, and” —‘ l Costume, ma’am, I said,” cried her in formant, interrupting her; “they are thinking of changing their dress.” “ Well for my part I don’ see what they want to make a public thing of it for; changing the dress used to be a private mat ter, but folks do so alter! They are always .a-changing dressesjnow, like the caterpillar in the morning that turns into a butterfly at night or the butterfly at night that turns to { a caterpillar in the morning, I dbn’t know which.” “But,” again in , temrpted her informant: “ I mean they are going to have a new dress.” “Oh, they are, are they?” replied the old lady; “well, I'm sure I’m glad ol it, if they can afford it; but they don’t always think enough of this; a good many can’t afford it; they can't 1 But did you hear of the new apperil I for wimmen that somebody is talking about?”— “ Why, my. dear Mrs. P.” said she, smiling, “ that is just what I was trying to get your opinion about.” “ Then,” replied she, '\ whydid'nt you say so in the tirst place?

CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MOBNING, JUNE 24, 1851. Best time to Cat Grain. •This is an iraportant'matter, but it is one vjrtnch we do not think farmers generally, understand as well as their interests seriously demand. Welhave urged in the Farmers 1 Department of our paper, tor ■ a nuraber]| of years past, the importance of culling grain early. We shewed, by the destruction which in previous years had been visited upon the wheat crop, by reason of the rust, when the grain had been left standing until fully or dead ripe,' that it it had been cut only one week before, it would • have made a splendid yield, without the slightest injury from this source. • The following article on the subject of harvest ing generally, and especially in reference to the early cutting of grain, is from the pen of the edi tor of the American Farmer. ', who is a thorough practical and scientific agriculturalist, and it deserves the serious consideration of all our farmers. Time of Cutting. Grain. —In the first place, your force should be ample to cut, bind, and secure, your crop; better, much better, to have a supera bundance than to have a few hands. It is wise and true economy, upon 6uch occasions, to be full handed, as well to get the grain down in season, as to be able to protect it-against the contingencies of weather. Provide yourselves, timely, with a full supply of the best implements, and be sure’that they are all in good order. In providing your harvest s/ores, let them be'good, 'and plenty, so that the harvesters may suffer for nothing required to sustain their muscular energies under'the peculiarly trying nature of their labors in the field. Working as they do, under the influ ence of the almost consuming rays of the sun, their physical powers are most heavily taxed, and unless they be sustained by refreshments between meals, it matters not how willing their hearts may be—it matters not what the degree of ambition by which they may be animated-—all will have to yield to the extra calls made upon their strength, unless extra means be taken to sustain their sink ing natures. Launches must be well timed ; full time allowed for dinner, and care taken in keeping the men lur nished with cool drinks of molasses water and ginger. A half galloh of molasses, 5 gallons of water and i lb. of good strong ginger, will make a pleasant and safe beverage. The molasses, wa ter, and ginger, to be well stirred! This drink is palatable, refreshing, and invigorating; may be drank in safety, and should be preterred to cold water dlone, which not unfrequently causes death. TO THE. TIME OF CUTTING TOUR GRAIN.— Don't delay this until the grain is either ripe, or dead ripe ; but cut it at least 7or 10 days before it is either the one or the other; ’a very good general rule as to the time of.cutting may be this: Cut when the straw immediately beneath the head has turned yellow, and become arid one or two inches irf length. From that moment the root supply or nourishment is cut off from the head. And so far as the roots are concerned, their offices cease from this Grain cut at this period of its growth, is plumper/thinner skinned, more nutritive, makes better and more flour, and weighs heavier than when permitted to get dead ripe; so that by cuting early, you will make more, and a better article, while 2 lbs. of the straw, thus cut, is worfh 3 lbs. that may be left to bleach and become dry in the ground There is another reason in fa vor of cutting before the grain is ripe, or dead.' ripe ; when so cut, it is not liable to shatter, arid much of the grain is saved, that would otherwise be lost. There is still another and more potent reason, which most emphatically calls for the practice of early cutting. ’The rust, that fell desiroyer of the -wheat crop, generally makes its appearance just before the grain ripeßs; when, if it were cut some seven, or ten days in advance of the usual time of cutting, this danger, and conse quent loss, would be avoided. Again—more time would be allowed for harvesting, a consideration of much importance. The best and most enlightened fanners of Eng land have for more than half a century been in the habit of cutting wheat before the period of its be ing ripe. In Dr. Rigby's report we find the fol lowing: -Mr. Coke , (of Holkham,) cuts down his wheat very early, even when the ear and stem are green ish, and the grain not hard. He says, that the wheat, thus early reaped, is always his best sam ple, and he gets 2s. a quarter for it more than for wheat cut»in a more mature state. “As an experienced farmer, the late Mr. John Shirifft recommended, that all sorts of grain should be cut, whenever the straw immediately below the ears is so dry, that on twisting it, no juice can be expressed ; lor then the grain cannot improve, as the circulation of the juices to the ear is stopped. It matters not that the stock below is green. Every hour that the grain stands uncut, after passing this stage, is attended with loss.” Professor Norton, who justly ranks among the ablest agricultural chemists, holds these views.— He says: “The time of cutting grain very sensibly effects the proportion of fine flour and bran yielded by samples of it. Careful experiments, have shown, with regard to wheat, that when cut from 10 to 14 days before it is fully ripe, the grain not only weighs heavier, but measures more; it is positively better in quality, producing a larger proportion of fine flour to the bushel. When the grain is in the milk, there is but little woody fibre; nearly every thing is starch, gluten, sugar, etc., with a large per centage of water. If cut 10 or 12 days before full ripeness, the proportion of woody fibre is still small; but as the grain ripens, the thickness of the skin rapidly increases, woody fibre being formed at the expense of the starch and sugar; these must obviously diminish in a corresponding degree, the quality of the grain being of course injured. The same thing is true as to all of the other grains.” Alter recommending the early cutting of grasses intended for hay, professor James F. W. Johnston adds: “ The same remarks apply to crops of corn, — [wheat, rye, oats, and barley] both to the straw and to the grain they yield. 4 The rawer the crop is cut the heavier and morenourishing is the straw. Within three weeks of being fully ripe, the straw begins to diminish in weight, and the longer it re. mains uncut after that time, the lighterit becomes and the lesssfourishing. “ On the other hand, the ear which is sweet and milky a month-before it is ripe, gradually consoli dates, the sugar changing into starch, and 1 case superior Ginghams, at 12} cents. . 1 case black and white Calicoes, only 6} cents. 1 case Linen Ginghams, only 6} per yard; usual price 12} 500 PARASOLS. .

These are some of the sad and melancholy ef fects produced by early habits of youth, viz: Weakness of.the back ami limbs, Pains in the head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal pliatioti of the. Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of. Consumption, &c.
