a fluty :which has been sadly neglected
hisiii*,llPennsylvania. It is really dis
tress.* to the eye of taste to witness the
inialber of farm-houses in our ancient
commipatrealth, which stand exposed, as
it were in the open field, without a shrub
orlisigraiwplot, to cheer the inmates, or
evigivormuch as a friendly tree to protect

edOMong nor own people. This repel
siti &attire of barbarism should be no
longer tolerated. Every farm should be
mitlea beautiful country seat. Such or
namental feats, instead of interfering with
the - essential duties of agriculture, tend
rather', to animate and cheer the labors of
every 'homer who has a soul susceptible
ortrue enjoyment. The beautiful shade

their spreading boughs become fondly at

guard and preserve them. The touching
song of countryman, Morris, owes its
poptilittity no less to a deep-seated princi
ple in our nature, than to the engaging sim
plicity: and pathos of its numbers. Every
one who has spent the sum merdays of youth
under :the lovely shade around the paren-
MTtlottemile f will be- as ready as the poet
to exclaim
-. Woodman ! spate that tree !"
Every descendant of the patriarch who

that boorish rudeness has been superseded

Such is a brief view of what the "United States

ed, and perfectly independent journal. It will
have no party views—no political bias. The pro.
primer, by the terms of his contract with the
Ste is the U. States, is bound to the condition
that 'the paper shall contain no political discus.
aims except the debates." It will be a vehicle of
.tress, not the organ of any set of opinions. The
grand aim of the subscriber is to:establish at'tbe

smste of intelligence—n responsibk agent. uo
which the politician, the business man, the menu.
tactuner,tbe mechanic,and every one interested in
the affairs of Congress and the Government may
rely at all times with Implicit confidence.
It is believed that the establishment of sock a
reliable Journal of lotelligence, , on terms which
place it within reach of the great masses of the
people, at the commencement of what promises to
be a meat interesting and eventful period in the
' biseery of Congressional proceedings; will be
