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.

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.

Coal Wealth of Western Virginia.
—The coal fields in Western Virginia
200 miles long by 100 wide, giving a work
ing area of 20,000 square miles. 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.

Where be has been in successful practice for a number of

Medical Surgeon of the U. S. Navy, now offers himself, to
the public to attend any professional calls.
Tin* purest medicines always oil hand direct from the
best Laboratories of our country, and the Botanical Gar
dens of the world. No patent medicines prescribed or
r^cotijmended. Medicines used only which will not break
down tbc constitution, bnt will renovate the system from
all injuries it has' sustained from mineral medicines.—
Chronic and difficult diseases must be treated upon analyt
ic i] principles; which is to know and ascertain what dis
ease is. Us nature aud character require a knowledge of
the chemical constituent of every solid and fluid of the hu
man body —the changes those solids aud fluids are capable
of undergoing. To know what medicines to employ to
cure diseases, requires a knowledge of the chemical con
stituents of all agents employed in medicines, and if we
are in possession of this knowledge, it is possible to cure
any disease —no matter of how longstanding—and leave
the patient in a healthy and perfectly cured condition!
Dyspepsia, that distressing disease and fell destroyer of
health and happiness, undermining the constitution, and
yearly carrying thousands to untimely graves, can must em
phatically be cured.
Rheumatism, in any form or condition, chronic or acute,
warranted curable; Epilepsy, or falling sickness, all chronic
and stubborn cases of Female Diseases radically removed ;
Salt Rheum, ami every description of ulcerations; Piles
and Scrofulous Diseases, which have baffled all previous
medical skill, can be cured by my treatment, when the
constitution is not exhausted.
I do say all diseases, (yes, Consumption*) can be cured.
CANCER CURED WITHOUT THE KNIFE.
