    "KATY VAT LIFS OXDE BLAIN.
The following parody on Tannahilo's universal
ly popular song, "Jessotho Flower of Dunblain,"
was written, it id thought, ty tho Hon. James M.
Torter, of Easton. It Is one of the best of its kind.
Ee tan vas gone down shoos t pehint the bluo moun
tains, Und left de tark night to cpmo on us again,
Yen I sthomblcd along 'mongst de schwamps and
dc fountains.
To see vonce ray Katy vat Iifs on de blain.
How schweet is te lilly, mil its prown yallow plos
sm; Und so is te meatow, all cofercd wit green ;
Eut no-ting sobnrty, and schticks in mine posom,
Like schweet little Katy vat lift on de blain.
Fho's pashful as any. shustlike her annt Chinny,
5hc s neidcr high larnt, nor yet foolish nor vain;
Und he's a great fillain, roidout any feelin,
Dat would hurt mine schweet Katy vat lifs on
de blain-.
My tays vas like noting dill I mot mit mine Katy;
All dera tings in do town dey vas nonsense and
fain
I tidn't see a gall I vonld call my tear lady.
Till I met little Katy vat lifs on de Maiu.
I ton't care how high I might get in de nation,
From all deni high places I'd coiuo town again,
Und tink it was noting to have a great station.
Yen I couldn't have Katy vat Hi's on de blain.
Brief - History ot Gcano. Tho London
Farmer's Magazine furnishes the following
comprehensive history of Guano: "Guano,
as most people understand, is imported from
the islands of the Pacific mostly of the Chin
eha group, off the coast of Fern, and under
the dominion of that government. Its sale is
mado a monopoly, and the avails, to a great
extent, go to pay the British holders of Peru
vian government bonds, giving them, to all in
tents and purposes, a lien upon the profits of a
treasure intrinsically more valuable than the
gold mines of California. There arc deposits
of this unsurpassed fertilizer in some places
to the depth ol sisty or seventy ieei, anu o er
large extents of surface.
The Guano fields are generally conceded to
be the excrement of aquatic fowls, w hich live
and nestlo in great numbers around the is
lands. They seem designed by nature to res
cue, at least in part, that untold amount of
fertilizing, material which every river-and
brook is rolling into the sea. The wash of al
luvial soils, the floating refuse of the field and
forest, and. above all, the wasted materials of
great cities, arc constantly being carrisd by
the tidal currents out to sea. These, to a cer
tain extent at least, go to nourish, directly or
indirectly, submarine vegetable and animal
life, which in turn goes to feed the Inrds,
which in our day are brought away by the ship
load from the Chiucha Islands.
The bird is a beautifully-arranged chemical
' laboratory, fitted up to perform a single opera
tion, viz: to take the fish as food, burn out
the carbon by means of its respiratory func
tions, and deposit the remainder in the shajtc
of an incomparable fertilizer, But how many
ages have these depositions of seventy feet in
thickness been accumulating 1
That alittle bird, whose individual existence
is as nothing, should in its united action pro
duce the means of bringing baek to an active
fertility whole provinces of waste and Larren
" lands, 13 one of a thousand facts to show how
apparently insignificant agencies in the econ
omy of natnre produce momentous results."
T( EKisir Flixt Wheat. There have been
received at the Patent Office one hundred
bushels of Tnrkifh flint wh!, vJ"r"r,i'"'I-,'v ?' ""
united States IJragoman at Constantinople,
from the foot of Mount Olympus. The wheat
lias alreedy been tested'in Virginia and Mary
land, and has proved both hardy and produc
tive. It possesses, in a remarkable degree,
the quality of long koepinji, as was indicated
lv a sample shown us, which was brought to
thi3 country, by Captain Porter of the Navy,
. four years ago. "Wc learn that the Sultan takes

1 11 1119 f . , i . , , .
A plan has been suggested w hich would un
doubtedly prove highly advantageous to the
agricultural interests of this country of im
porting largo quantities of wheat from the
shores of the Mediterranean and Black Seas
ior supplying our farmers with seed at about
the cost of the original purchase, freight, &c.
It has been proposed that the storeships of the
navy, which usually return from the Mediter
ranean in ballast, be freighted w ith seed wheat,
purchased by government, and sold to agricul
turalists at a nominal rate, on condition that
they shall cultivate the same, and report the
result to some proper authority, by whom the
excess of cost may be refunded to them. Yc
understand that wheat of an excellent quality
can be purchased at Constantinople, under or
dinary circumstances, for less than half the
usual , price in the Atlantic markets and the
United States. If this be true, it would be
cheaper and more profitable- to the farmer in
the end to sell his own, and purchase his seed
wheat from abroad, as the change of soil and
climate would often cause his crop to mature
earlier and give an increased yield
A Simple yet Certain Ci rk for Piles.
In view of the immense suffering by this dis
tressing complaint, 1 request spcae in your
columns to make known a certain, safe and
simple remedy, with the hope that it will be
copied bv other journals, that all afflicted mav
have the benefit of it. It is simply white pine
pitch, made into the size of ordinary pills, and
from ten to eighteen, (according to the state
of the disease,) taken during tho day, until re
lief is had. One case among the many which
have been cured was that of a person who, af
ter having failed to obtain relief from the most
eminent medical skill, and even suffered a re
sort to the knife, without obtaining relief, has
lccn entirely cured by the above, and now en
jovs excellent health. Yours, &c, II. A.

There are many truisms in the world. Take
the following as a sample in every-day Hie :
One new bonnet will make a young lady feel
happy very. One "funny man" will bother
a whole neighborhood. One goose hiss will
disturb a whole assembly. One bad novel will
waste whole reams of good paper. One drop
of oil will stop a hideous noise. One "jolly
row" will turn all the inhabitants of a street
out of doors. One pretty flirt w ill make a do
rcn plain girls unhappy for an entire evening.
One aong will set thirty people talking.
Old Babtxox Dr. Oppert, of France, has
spent two yean on the site of old Babylon, examining-the
cuneiform inscriptions on the
bricks and slates. He states that this famous
old city, in the days of its grandeur and pow
er, covered rather more than an area of 200
square miles, being about two and a half more
than the site of London. But ail this space
was not inhabited, there being immense fields
to supply the city with corn and pasture in
case of siege
A friend just returned from abroad says he

A Lady ox Beards. A fair correspondent
of the Home Journal has the following sensi- !
ble'remarks on the wholesome habit of wear
ing the beard, which has lately come into fash
ion :
"It is astonishing what change a few years
tas wrought in regard to shaving. Once, ev
erybody shaved, but now, I much mistake, if
every gentleman has not found to shave or not
to shave, a question suggested by his morning
toilet. Alas for the razor-strop man. His oc
cupation is nearly gone. I hope ho will suc
ceed in finding another, for the present gene
ration w ill be a bearded race. '
"1 was quite interested last winter in read
ing a 'Natural History of the Human Species,'
by Lieutenant-Colonel Charles II. Smith, in
which he states that the liearded races are the
conquering races. For this reason the beard
less races are averse to tho union with them.
This aversion he states to be the result of ex
perience, proving the superior activity of those
who have sprung from such races. Jenghis,
Timur and Nadir Shah, were directly, or in
their ancestry, descended from Caucasian mo
thers, and hence, also, the jealous exclusion of
European women from China. The progres
sive nations, he tells us, are a bearded and
hairy race. Samson's strength lay in his hair.
Bereft of that his mighty power was gone.
The lion is the king of tho forest. How much
of his proud beauty lie owes to his magnificent
mane. Shave him, and ho is king no longer.
"I cannot imagiue why a beard is given to
man, unless it is to try his patience, if he is to
spend his time in a daily cutting it off, as it
daily asserts its right to a manifested exist
ence. The beard is an emblem of manly pow
er and dignitv, and is certainly an element of
manly beauty. Tho Father of the Faithful
and all the old Patriarchs and Prophets wore a
beard ; so did tho Saviour, when he dwelt as
man among the hills of Judea. So, too, most
of the venerable divines who have transmitted
to us their .schemes of theology. It is a mod
cm innovation to shave oil the whole beard.
It was not common before the commencement
of the last century. Moses forbade the Jews
to mar the corners of the beard, and David,
when his Embassadors were insulted by J la
nan's shaving off one-half their beards, per
mitted them to tarry at Jericho till their
beards had grow n.
'While the beard, properly worn, is an or
nament, it is sometimes rendered hideous by
the manner in which it is trimmed. A round
mass of bristles on the chin is never becom
ing, yet sometimes tbin-clieekcd, long-faced
gentlemen elongate their countenances in this
way; ofteu these tufts impart alow, animal
expression; they never confer dignity nor
beauty. Some few are greatly improved by
full whiskers, others by a moustache. Some
look best with the beard trimmed rather close.
It requires an arti-ts eye to decide on what is
most becoming. Nature leaves a varying out
line to the beard which is more perfect than
any semi-circle cut by the razor.
"Perhaps you may think I have wandered
from my proper sphere in wi ilingabont beards.
I had no idea of doing so when I commenced
this letter ; you must charge it all to the snow
storm. I must leave the subject of ladies dress
for another day. Yours, &c,

rtA II E N EW-YORK Till BUN eTiS55-C
A Tdf. Ti:imm: is n..- in the middle of its fif
teenth year: Vol. XV. of its weekly Usue commen
ced on the 1st of September last. The American
public need not now be made acquainted with u
character or claim? to consideration. With but
subordinate regard fr prudenca. policy and pop
ularity, it has aimed to stand for Righcou.-:nc,
fur Truth, for Humanity, against fortified Iniqui
ty, Fraud and Oppression. There is not a slave
trader on this Continent, iho" he may jicer read
anything but his bills of sale and notcs-pavaMo,
who does not know nnd hate the Titinrsr; there it
not an extensive fabricator of drugged and poison
ous Liquors wno docs not consider it a very dan
gerous and immoral paper, and wonder v.hvit
publication is tolerated in a commercial, ctton
buving City like New-York. The Nm-ari Mercu
ry once foitihlv remarked that it had never kaoTVu
a hard, griping, screwing avaricious employer who
was not hostile to the Tbiui xk, nor one eminently
generous and kindly who did not like it ! Prompt
and plain-spoken in its denunciations of iniquity
and abuses of power, whilst claiming no exemp
tion from human fallibility, it may have don
temporary injustice to individuals, but it has nc
cr been unfaithful to Principle, nor deaf to th
cries of the wronged and suffering. In its column
the advocates of novel and un popular theories con
templating tho melioration of human woes. oFpe
eially those of the voiceless an4 down-trodden,
have ever found audience and hospitality; whi!
it has already resisted, and will persistently com
bat, every attempt toproscribc au 1 degrade eny
class because of diversities of Nativity, nt Ciuvd.
In dci:aiicc of calumnies tb most atrv -ioiis. auu
of boltiiities the most deadly and Ublruc, the Tri-
lii'XE has growu steadily ia public apprv-ciaviuu
from the day of its oi ijrin. lis means of senli-j
the pnHis have been augmented in proportion.

nent and of Peace with All which will hallow th
name of Whig, the TuinrxE, while surrenderinj
no jot cf its proper independence co-operated ca.
nesily and ardently with the Whig party so lnjf
ns its vitality was preserved. When in 1S50-2 au.
attempt was made to interpolate slave-hunting in
to its ereed, we sternly resisted that imposition;
when, at the close of the last Presidential can
vass, it was seen that a large portion of the Whig
preferred to defeat their own party rather thaa
allow its Anti-Slavery wing to share its triumph,
even under a conservative Chief on a Pro-Slavery
platform, wc knew and proclaimed that the Whig
party was no more. Subsequent events, includiug
tlic rise nud calumniation of the Know Nothing
conspiracy, and the speedy absorption therein of
the whole force of Pro-slavery Wliigisui. only con
firmed our wndoubting anticipations. With no
siskly lamentations, therefore, for the inevitably
bygone, but wi:h hope, and joy, and sympathy,
and words of cheer, have we hailed the beginning
and watched the progress of that mighty REPLR
LICA.K movement which impelled by the perfidi
ous violation of the Missouri Compact, and stimu
lated by the astounding outrages whereof wis
rights of the Free Settlers of Kansas havt been tb
victims by repeated and utter vitiation of their
elections bv an armed mob collected by conspiracy
and hurled suddenly upon them from the border
counties of the neighboring SIuvo State, is. destin
ed to sweep away tho landmarks of old party
fends, nnd unite the true hearts and strong arim
of tho frcc-soulcJ in one mighty effort to confin
the scourge and scandal of our country within th
limits of the States which unwisely uphold it. To
the success cf this effort, tho euergies of the Tm
Brxr. will be sternly devoted: while tho TEMPER
ANCE REFORM, including the entire suppression
of the trafic in intoxicating beverages, will find in it,
as hitherto, nn earnest and unflinching champion..
