THE AMERICAN GIRL.
Our hearts are with our native land,
Our song is with her glory,
- Her warriors' wreath is in our hand,
Our lips breath out her story.
Iler lofty hills aad valleys green,
Are shining bright before us, . .
And like a rainbow sign is seen - . ,
Her prouJ flag waving o'er us.
And there aro smiles upon oar lips ;
For those who meet her focmen ; -
For glory's star knows no eclipse,
When smiled upon by woman. .i '.
For those who brave the mighty deep,
And ser.m the throat of danger,
Wc'v smiles to cheer, and tears to weep,
For every ocean ranger.
Onr sighs are with oar native land?
Our songs are for oar freedom ;
Onr prayers arc for the gallant band
Who strike where honor lead them.
We love the taintlesa air we breathe,
'l is freedom's endless power,
We'll twine for him an endless wreath
Who scorns a tyrant's power.
They tell of France's beauteous fair;
Of Italy's proud daughters.
Of Scotland'!! lasses England's rare,
Ar.J nymphs of Shannon's waters.
We need not boast their haughty charms,
Though lords around them hover,
Onr glory lies in freedom's arms
A Kp.ki:max for a lover.

Who lias not c-bssrved. the great dillorencc
in beauty between a haudsoniely dressed tree,
and one of uncouth or distorted form of the
same species? How often do purchasers of
ornamental shrubs and trees anxiously search
for symmetrical specimens forgetting, or not
knowing, that the most irregular may be casi
ly pruned into any desired shape. If the
Dutch gardeners display so much skill in
training vegetable growth in peacocks and
hedgehogs, American gardeners may find an
appropriate exercise of their skill in imitating
the graceful and beautiful In nature.
At the present season, or daring the com
mencement f vigorous growth, this desirable
object m iy hi most easily accomplished. Ey
occasionally removing a needless shoot, but
more frequently shortening-Lack such as. are
over-grown, or pinching in thosa that threaten
to become so, and ly lopping certain portions
to induce dormant buds to push where branches
ani foliage may be deficient, a degree of skill
may be exercised, not unworthy of ccir.pariscn.
with that of the artist who develcpes a beauti
ful statue from a shapeless block of marble.
- Even Email plant s, which othr.rwis.-i grow tall
and meagre, may bV nva.ie to nssuyfir a beshy
and thrck appeirance, by p-incliing oif the ends
of the leading sheets while they ore young.
The English gardeners have acquired a skill
in managing in this way their pot plants inten
ded for exhibition, that it is really astonishing
to those who first witness the rich Snd sym
metrical mas3cs of flour and foliage whicfi
they are thus enabled to present to view. : . ,
A greet error is often committed when Coh
ering plants are placed in open "ground,
by crowding thera too closely together, giving
them too much the appearance' of woods.
They ere much the best when every plant is
allowed full room to expand. "When crowded,
the flowers are fewer and more imperfect, and
the plants and foliage slender, and greatly in
ferior in beauty to the dense and rich mass of
well developed leaves end bloom of a freely
grown uncrowded plant. ,'llbany Cu!fiva.!cr.-
fMALL POTATOES FOE SEE'S,
Mr. C. T. Alvord, cf Wilmington, Vt., snys:
"Some eight years since, at the time of plant- j
ir.j my potatoes, I came short of seel to plant, j
Previous to this time I had used Urge whole I
potatoes, or the seed ends cut ofT. for seed,
and supposed that no other would answer. I
resolved to try the experiment of planting smtdl
potatoes; the largest being about the size ol
common plumbs, but the most of thera being
smaller. I carried several bushels of these little
things to the field, and commenced planting
them, putting about liom two to four in a hill.
;The potatoes in the different parts of the
eld came up at the same time, but the vines
from the small potatoes were not as large and
fis thrifty as thosi from the large ones. At the
first hoeing, there was some difierence in the
tops, but after that the tops from the email po
tties looked as well as any of "the Ccld, and
continued through the season. 'Then I came
to dig them, I found the potatoes, where the
small seed was planted, to be a3 good, ia every
respect, as those where the large potatoes were
planted. There was as many in a hill, and the
potatoes were as large, and with as few small
ones, as those from the large seed.
Many of the farmers in this vicinity, after
seeing the experiment fairly tried, are using
Binall potatoes for see 1. This witer I have had
several applications from dealers in potatoes
forseed,who h.forai me that the farmers whew
they purchase from are generally adopting the
way of using small potatoes for seed."
PRZPAP-2 FCIi LASGE CS0P3.
We have already alluded to the importance
ot farmers bestiring themselves tho approach
ing season to make their farms produce large
crops. As it is a maxim generally established
with theni'sto make hay when the sun shines,"
they will readily see. the. importance of this
when grain commands the prices they are nojw
receiving nor is there any probability of a
Material diminution in price for some time to
eorae. The prospect of a bloody and protract
ed war in Europe, would seem to poiat Tto
Aiocrica as le producer, for the time, of the
belligerant nations abroad. A judicious and
wise farmer, will prepare for the times, and
with oat impoverishing his soil, put his farm
tinder the best system of tillage. - -. '
A few days sirico, one of the most successful
and enterprising farmers of Bucks county In
formed us that last year on ground he had ma
nured in the spring his corn produed 75 bush
els per acre and on the same quality, of soil,
without manuring, it did not average 49 bush
els per acre, lie considered himself well paid
for manuring, io the extra yield, and he is at
present engaged in manuring all the ground he
intends opnt jo with corn in the nresentseaf on.
nnb TiumoL .-. ..
Preaching well Applied. A certain bish
op ordered his servant one festival day to go
to a butcher whose name was David for apiece
of meat, and then come to the church where
the bishop. was to preach. The bishop in his
sermon brought authorities from the scripture
to prove his discourse, in this mauner, Isaiah
says thus Jeremiah says thus Ezekiel says
thus at last happening to turn towards the
door just as his servant came in, went on, and
what says David?
Upon which the servant roared out 'David
swears that it you do not pay what you owe
him you need never send to his shop again.'
I told toc so. Wife, wife, our cow's dead
choaked with a turnip.'
I told you so. 1 always sed she'd choke
herself with them turnips.'
'But it was a pumpkin '
' Wal, it's all the same, I know'd all along
how it would be. Xobody but a ninny like you,
would ever feed a cowoi pumpkins that wasn't
chopped.'
'The pumpkins was chopped. And 'twant
the pumpkins neither that choked her. 'Twas
the tray and the cud on't is sticking out of
her mouth now.'
'Ugh ! ugh ! There goes my bread-tray. No
longer ago than yesterday I told you that the
cow would swallow that tray.'
TiiE Difference. A black man once came
to Philadelphia, and attended church. lie
went iuto a good pew, and the next neighbor
asked the man who owned it, why he put a
nigger into his pew ?"
"Why, sir, he's a Ilaytien."
"Can't help that he's black !"
; "Why, sir, he's a correspondent of iiiinc",
"Can't help that he's black !"
"lie's v.oith a million of dollars."
"Introduce iiie."
"CCp-'-lIokl yer tongue, Judy ; yo kape up
such a blathering wid yer pctaly thar, that I
cant hear meself think at all." "Och," re
toiled Judy, 'an' it's yer putty self that kspes
rp a deal of Jlirinkin' winch I take to be your
tliinkin' it would be a dale belter lor the gos
soons and meself, who can't niver git a t-iiio
of the cr.it are, so absorbed do ye become wid
it, thr.t ye can't answer a question for fear iv
its ehokiTi' vc."'
: !X7"Tho Panama Star in giving the incidents
cf the rodent . earthquake there, says : "One
patriotic individual rushed to the consul's res
idence ar.d claimed the protection of his flag.
In vain a friend told him he would be no safer
there that earthquakes respect no flag. "I'll
be d d if it shant ours, though," he replied.
"If any earthquake dare touch the flag, the
whole Uui.m would raise to put it down."
Coaxing the Bear. "My love," said Mrs.
Foozle to her husband, "oblige me with a five
dollar note to-day, to purchase a new dres3."
"Shanrt do any such thing, Kate you call
ed me a bear, yesterday."
"Lor, love, that was nothing, I meant that
you were fond of hugging."
"You little , I, have no five, but here's
a ten."
u.WA farmer's wife, ia speaking of the
smartness, aptness, an i intelligence of her son,
a lad six years of age, to a lady acquaintance,
'lie can read fluently in any part of the Bible,
repeat the whole catechism, and weed onions
as well ay h;3 father" "Yes, mother," added
the young hopeful, "and yesterday I licked
XcdKawson, throwedthe cat into the well and
stole old Ilickley's gimlet."
7" The following dialogue we overheard
the other day between two juveniles:
'I say, Bill, who do you go for, for Presi
dent ?"'
"Why, Sam Houston., of coarse."
"What do you go for him for? Did he ev
er give a feller a cent to buy a stick cf candy?"
"2s o.' LCt he gave Santa Anna particularfits,
and he'll give old logy politicians blue blazes
i
if they don't get out of his way."
Bridget, where is Mr. Ludlow's boot
jack?
'Please marni little William has got it in

'Tell him to bring it in instantly.' .
IIe says he won't, nnrra cause why it has
just started for 'Jersey' with a load cf clam
shells and a broken brick.'
CT A newly married couple, some years
since, took up their abode in a place named
Poplar. At breakfast next morning the gen
tleman said to his lady, 'My dear, this is Pop

'And by pu-ting j in it,' promptly re
plied tho lady, it will become populous !
H7"Mary, where's the frying pan gone?"
"Jemmy's got it, carting mud and clam-shells
up the alky, with the cat for a horse." "The
dear little fellow what a genius he will make;
but go and get it. We're going to have com
