TO THE GLADE BARD. My friendly Babd you claim an answer, To the lines you penned for mo; How shall I my heart right honest, Openly unfold to thee? Thoughts that now my heart would prefer, May perhaps not answer you ; Still though plain should be my language, vj will strive and answor true. Pardon mo, but let me tell you, That I don’t like flattery ; And the hateful grudge you speak of — Finds not now a place in me! I will not protend to pen you, Words as sweet as you unfold ; For my heart feels silent, thoughtful, Thoughts that seem as yet uutold. And tho tongue, what folly rules it— When o’ercamo by Satan’s powers; Still wo boast, we’ve gained the victory, And build delusive towers. Self-conoeit doth wildly lure us, Pride and folly madly charm ; v But in ways of virtuo only, Can we walk secure from harm. A ufleful lesson, thus can we — By our wayward footsteps learn ; Which will guide us, if we heed it, Many idle paths to shun. May we never list to folly, Never heed her idle stream, Which is like a fleeting bubble — And dissolveth like a dream. It lulls awhilo tho unguarded spirit, In a weak and doubtful sleep ; Which will vanish like a vision, And tho soul in torment steep. May wo learn to rule our passions, And to strictly guard our tongue, This alone will make us happy, Right alone can conquer wrong. Pardon me, if I have uttered — Aught that may friond annoy ; Bo the past henceforth forgotten, Future light our only joy. Farewell my friond, and il my wishes — I do rightly comprehend ; Be my prayers, that Heaven’s blessings, May bo thine, till life shall end. Mt. Aiby, 1857. The Affection of the Horse. Riding in a stage, a short time since, over the hills of Western Pennsylvania, I asked the privilege of riding out wiili the driver. This in pleasant weather, and in a strange country, is my favorite seat. — Many consider it a disgrace to sit out with the driver; but often I find philosophy guiding the horses in a public stage. If a passenger politely askes to sit out with the driver,.it will be as politely granted ; and no situation is so favorable for learning the local and most interesting history of the country through which the traveler is passing. “ That near horse,” daid I, 11 is a fine animal.” “Yes,” said he ; “ if .1 had his mate, money would not purchase them. How old do you think he is ?” “ Probably eight or nine years,” said I. “ He is twenty-four,” said he. “ I have driven him nine years on this, route. His mate was just like him ; they have grown up together, and stood in the same stable. No person ever appeared to think more of a friend, or even a. child, than those two horses did of each other. If one was ab sent for a night or day, the other whinned, and looked and moved about the stable, oalling for his absent friend. “ Last win ter,” said he, “his mate died.” Since then he has been constantly mournful and un happy. He is constantly calling for his mate when in the stable ; and he will not permit any other horse to occupy the place of his companion in the stable. In all other places he is quiet and gentle, but will allow no one to be a companion at the stable where he had so often enjoyed the society of his departed companion. But he is failing fast, said my friend ; “he is evidently pining away with grief, and poor old Jim will soon join his mate in another, and 1 Ehpe and believe, a higher state of existence.” “Why,” said I, “ do you suppose a horse has a conscious existence after death ?” “ Certainly I do,” said he, ‘i I have the same evidence of it that I shall exist.— Have I love ? So has a horse. Have I affection, sympathy, mind, reason ? So has a horse. Call it instinct, if you please —I call it reason. True, a horse has not the organs of mathematical calculation ; but many human beings are as destitute of them as a horse ; and certainly they are not necessary for a future existence. It is the moral faculties that will survive the grave. “In those,” said he, Jim is pre eminent. Does any one love his friend 1 Certaiuly not better than Jim does his.— Does any one strive to do his duty 1 Jim is a pattern of dutiful obedience. Does any remember, and mourn for his lost loved ones 1 Poor old Jim is going down sor rowing to the grave for his loved mate.” Here my companion brushed a tear from his eye, as he reined up to the post office in Mercer county, to deliver his mail.— Piaine Farmer. Early Marriages.—She stood beside the altar when she was but sixteen. She was in love ; her destiny rested on a crea ture in fashionable clothes, with empty pocket. “He came of good family, how ever, and blood you know, is something.— She looked lovely as she pronounced the vow. Think of a vow from auburn hair, eyes and pouting lips, only sixteen years eld.” She stood by the wash tub when her twenty-fifth birth-day arrived. The hair, the lips, the eyes were not calculated to excite, the heart. Five cross young ones were about the house crying; some break ing things, and one urging the necessity of an immediate supply of the lacteal secre tion., She stopped in despair §ind sat down, and tears trickled down her onoe plump and ruddy cheek. Alas ! —Nancy, early marriages are not the dodge. Better en joy youth at home, and hold lovers at a proper distance until you have muscle, limb and heart enough to face a frowning world and family. If a ohap really cares for you he can .wait for two or three years, make presents, take you to concerts and so on, until the time comes. Early marriages and early oabbages are tender productions. j FAIiIi FLOWING. The advantages of fall plowing may be enumerated as follows : L In the autumn, the team having be come inured to work through the summer, is more vigorous and better prepared for labor than in the spring, and other farm work is less pressing in its demands upon the time and attention than in that bustling period. Let all the plowing be done whieh is possible in the fall, and still the spring work would give abundant employment to the farmer and his teams, in drawing manure, cross plowing, cultivating, • har- rowing, &c. 2. In the fall, low, moist lands are gen erally in better condition for plowing than in spring time. We say generally, for this season low, most lands are decidedly moist at present. Still, we cannot hope for any better state very early next year, and if plowed as they should be, wet lands will suffer very little from water through the winter. 3. Stiff, heavy soils, plowed in autumn, undergo, by the action of water and frost, a more thorough disintegration—clays are pulverized and crumbled, and\heavy loams aud hard pan lands are acted upon, in like manner and with like benefit. 4. Heavy, coarse swards, full of rank weeds and grasses, can be better subdued by plowing in the fall, their roots are more apt to die out, and far less liable to sprout again than when plowed in the spring.— The turf is better prepared, by its more advanced state of decay, for the use of crops whieh may be 30wn or planted upon it. 5. Fall plowing disturbs the winter ar rangements ” of numerous worms and in sects, and must destroy a large number of these pests, and also their eggs and larvae. This is a minor advantage, but one worthy of consideration, especially on lands in fested with the wire-worm. The principal objections to fall plowing are these : 1. The less of that fresh friable condi= tion readily permeable to the air and moisture, and the consolidation of the soil by long exposure to changing and stormy weather. This, on soils of a light charac ter, is a very serious objection to plowing in autumn. 2. The loss, of vegetable matter and the gases of the same, while in a state of de cay, is another disadvantage. The latter is but a small loss if the work is done late in the fall, but often.on hill-sides, a large part of the soluble and floating organic matter is washed away by the heavy rains of winter and early spring time. The soil is also consolidated by the same influences. Heavy swards thus situated would sustain less injury than light swards or stubble lands. The advantages and disadvantages of this practice may be appropriately followed by brief directions for performing the work. Do it in the best manner. 2. Throw up low lands in narrow beds and cut cross furrows and drains sufficient to carry off at once all surface water. — This will obviate one great objection to fall plowing. 3. Plow deep and narrow furrows—such will best secure the action of the ameliora- ting influences of frost upon the soil. A rough broken surfaoe is better than a smooth one for this purpose. —Rural New Yorker. A Baby in a Basket —A Small Cat astrophe I —The Philadelphia Pennsyl vanian has the following among its police reports : As Mrs. Esther Stansbury, residing in a court running from Race, below Sixth st., was about to bring a bucket of water from a hydrant, last night, she found a basket suspended from the knob of the front door. Putting her hand into the basket, she felt something alive and kicking, so wrapped up in rags that no further . discovery could be made without unwrapping the object. A piece of paper, folded like a letter, lay by the side of the animated bundle. Mrs. Stansbury immediately returned into the house, and by the light of a lamp examined the billet. It was directed to her husband. She tremulously broke the seal and read as follows : “ To Joe Stansbury—Sir—l send you the baby, which you will please take good care of, and bring up right, so that 1 it may turn out to be a better man than its dpd dy. Oh, Joseph ! what a sly old»rake you are ! Who would think that such a sober old spindle-shanks could be such a tearing old sinner 1 The child is youTS —you may swear to that. Look at it—it’s Joe Stans bury all over. You deceived me shame fully, Joe—letting on to be a widower! But do a father’s duty by the young one, and I’ll forgive you. Your heart-broken Nancy. “P. S. Don’t let that sharp-nosed wife of your’s see this letter. Gammon her with some kind of a story about the baby. N.” Mr. Stansbury was in the basement kitchen quietly eating his supper, and lit tle imagining what a storm was brewing over his head. The door of the kitchen was violently thrown open, and his wife’s voice yelled out: “Stansbury, come up here, you villain ! Here’s a mess for you!” The astonished Stansbury hastily obeyed the summons. “ Don’t you want to see Nancy, the heart broken Nancy 1” cried Mrs. Stansbury, when her guilty husband hobbled into the room. “ Nancy ! what Nancy’s that 1” said the sly old rogue, in well feigned aston ishment. “ Why, Nancy the mother of this baby. . that’s hung up at the door, Mr. Stansbury! • Oh, you look mighty innocent! Just read . that lotter, and look into the basket! . Don’t be afraid ; it won’t bite ; it’s got no teeth, poor thing. You’ll know it; for, as the hussy says, it’s just like you all over. Please goodness, I’ll expose you before everybody.” * In less than five minutes Mrs. S. had j collected a room full of spectators. —half of the inhabitants of the court, to witness the prooess of unwrapping the baby. Anxious j expectation sat on every countenance, as i the jealous lady tore away rag after rag! from the body of the foundling, the vigor- j ous movements of which astonished every- j body. = “ It’s full of the devil already,” said : Mrs. S.; that shows it’s his. You’ll soon see that it’s like him in everything.” At last all the swaddling clothes being : removed, out jumped the baby, and made , its escape through the open window. It was a big tom-cat! ‘ « that country is the most prosperous where labor commands the greatest reward. LANCASTER CITY. PA., TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 8, 1857. For tho Intelligencer. FAIRY LAND OF DREAMS BY THE GLADE BABD. There are some peaceful spirits dwell, Within the silence of our thoughts, That do in whispering accents tell, Of the fair, fairy Land of Dreams. There are some fanoied thoughts assert, In the bright chambers of the mind ; Which to our visions do impart, The bright fair, fairy Land of Dreams. Often we muse with spirits low — Recalling to our memory’s glass, The vanished scenes, of long ago, Picturing the fairy Land of Dreams. Some times when by sorrow oppressed, We feel forsaken, sad, alone; The mind again will feel released, By the bright, fairy Land of Dreams Though aching under passion’s storm, Or deep inquietude, the heart; We feel relieved by thoughts-inborn— Of the fair, fairy Land of Dreams. Thus sweetly comes a soothing power, That makes the mind again serene, And calms it, in its stormiest hour — By the fair, fairy Land of.Dredms. New Pbovidence, 1857. The Grandeur of Nature. We live peaceably' on the surface of the earth, while oceans of fire roll beneath our .feet. In the interior of the globe the ev erlasting forge is at work. How dreadful must an earthquake be, when we are told by Fliny that twelvo cities in Asia Minor were swallowed up in one night. Not a vestige remained—they were lost in the tremendous forever ! ' Millions of beings have been swallowed up while flying for safety. In the bowels of the earth Nature performs her wonders at the same moment that she is -firing the heavens-with her lightnings. Her thunders roll above our heads and beneath onr feet, where the eye of mortal man never penetrated. In the vast vortex of the volcano tho universal forgo empties its melted metals. The roar "Ff Etna has been the knell of thousands, when it poured forth its cataract of fire over one of the fairest portions of the earth, and swept into ruins ages of industry. In the reign of Titus Vespasian, in the year 70, the volcano of Vesuvius dashed its fiery bil lows to the clouds, and buried in - burning lava the cities of Herculaneum, Stabie and Pompeii, whic then flourished near Naples. In the streets once busy with the -hum of industry, and where the celebrated ancients walked, the modern philosopher now stands and ruminates upon fallen “"grandeur.— While the inhabitants were unmindful of the danger which awaited them; while they were busied with"thc plans of wealth and greatness, the irresistable flood of fire came roaring from the mountain, and shrouded them in eternal night. Seven teen centuries have rolled over them, and their lonely habitations and works remain as their monuments. They were swept away in the torrent of time—the waves of ages have settled over them, and art alone has preserved her memory. Great Nature how sublime are all thy works 1 - A Mother’s Grave.—Earth has some sacred spots, where we feel like loosing the shoes from our feet, and treading with rev erqgce ; where common words of sooial con verse seem rude, and friendship’s hands have lingered in each other, where vows have been plighted, prayers offered, and tears of parting shed. Oh, how thoughts Cover around such places, and travel back through unmeasured space, to visit- them. But of all the spots on this’ green earth none is so sacred as that where restß, wait ing the resurrection, those we have once loved and cherished—our brothers, or our children. Hence, in all ages, the better part of mankind have chosen and loved spots of the dead ; and on these spots they have loved to wander at eventide, to medi tate. But of all places, even among tho charnel houses of the dead, none is so sa cred as a mother’s grave. There sleeps the nurse of our infancy— the guide of our youth—the counselor of all our riper years—our friend when others deserted us ; she whose heart was a stranger to every other feeling but love, and who could alwavs find excuses for us when we could find none for ourselves. There she sleeps, and we love the very earth for her sake. With sentiments like these I turn ed aside from the gaities of life to the nar row habitation of the dead. I wandered among those who commenced life with me in hope. Here distinctions are now for gotten ; at least by the slumbers around me. I saw the rich and the great, who scorned the poor, and shunned them as if infected by the plague, quietly sleeping by their siefe. How the Devil Lost.—The following is too good to be lost. We clip it from an exchange paper, and respectfully call the attention to it of certain persons who feel disposed to spread in the newspaper line : A young man who ardently desired wealth, was visited by his Satanic majesty, who tempted him to promise his sgul for eternity, if he could be supplied on this earth with all the money he could use.— The bargain was concluded—the devil to supply the money, and was at last to have the sopl, unless the young man could spend more money than the devil could furnish. Years passed away—the man married, was extravagant in * his living, built palaces, speculated widely—lost and gave away fortunes, and yet his coffers were always full. Ho turned politician, and bribed his way to power and fame, without reducing his “pile” of gold. He became a “fillibuster,” and fitted out ships and armies, but his Banker honored all his drafts. He went to St. Paul to live, and paid the usual rates of interest for all the money he could borrow, but though the devil made wry faces when he came to pay the hills, yet they were all paid. One expedient after another failed —the devil counted the time, only two years, that he must wait for the soul, and mooked the efforts of the despairing man. One more trial was resolved upon—the man started a newspaper 1 The devil growled at the bill at the end of the first quarter, was savage in six months, melan choly in nine, and broke, “dead broke,” at the end of the year, So the newspaper went down, but the soul was Saved. “Tough, madam—tough did you T coking glasses. say V’ said the irascible boarder to the 1 j g. w. dewe-us. i , » , Wholesale and Retail Manufacturer of Orn-imental and landlady, as he was trying to carve what Plain Gilt Looking Qlasses, Portraits and Picture Frames of was ostensibly a chicken— << YeS , m: and every Style.

At the falls of the Kanawha the coal seams in the mountain average 120 feet in thickness. The Kanawha Star says : “ it is not believed that the quantity or quality of the coal in the mountains about the falls of Kanawha are any better, if as good, as several of the other localities named. Indeed, the Elk cannel coal has long been acknowledged as superior to Any, and the Coal River next to it. Taking, then, one hundred arid twenty feet as the thickness, which has been found to exist, much more may be dicovered where none is now knowo,) and 20,000 square miles as the area of this Western Virginia coal field, and taking a square foot in the bank as equivalent to a bushel of coal after being mined, we have 66,908,160,000,000' bushels of coal, which at two cents a bushel, amounts to §1,838,163,200,000. But to avoid even the appearance'of extravagance, let the estimate be made at only one half the quantity actually measured in the Ka nawha hills, and we have §669,081,600,000 for the value of these coal fields, without including the value of the suface as land for agricultural and horticultural purpos Good Society. —lt should be *the aim of every young man to go into good society. We do not mean the rich, the proud, and the fashionable, but Jthe society of the the intelligent, and the good. Where you find men that know more than you do, and from whose conversation one can gain in formation, it is always safe to be found.— It has broken down inany a man by associ ating with the low and vulgar—where the ribald song was inculcated —and the in decent story, to excite laughter, and influ ence the bad passions. Lord Clarendon has attributed success and happiness in life to associating with persons more virtu ous than himself. If you wish to be wise and respected ; if you desire happiness and not misery, we advise you to associate with the intelligent and the good. Strive for mental excellence and strictintegrity, and you will never be found in the sinks of pollution, and on the benches of swindlers and gamblers. Once habituate yourself to a virtuous course—once secure a love for, good society, and no punishment would be greater than by accident to be obliged for half a day to associate with the low and vulgar.
