KATY VAT LIFS OX DE BLAIN".
The following parody on Tannahilo's universal
iy popular song, '-Jesse the Flower of Dunblain,'
was written, it is thought, by the Don. James M
Porter, of Easton. It is one of the best of its kind

Enisi lTisToar or GrAsto. The London
Farmer's Magazine furnishes the following
: comprehensive history of Guano : "Guano,
as most people understand, is imported from
(the islands of tho Pacific mostly of the Cbin
cha group, off" the coast of Peru, and under
. the dominion of that government. Its sale is
made a monopoly, and the avall3, 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 are deposits
of this unsurpassed fertilizer in some places
to the depth of sixty or seventy feet, and over
large extents of surface.
The Guano fields arc generally conceded to
be the excrement of aquatic fowls, which live
and ncstla 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 everv river and
" brook is rolling into the sea. The wash of al
luvial soils, the floating refuse of the field and
forest, and,bovo all, tho wasted materials of
great cities, are constant!- being carri:J 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 birds,
which in our dny are brought away by the ship
load from the Chincha Islands.
The bird is a beautifully-arranged chemical
laboratory, fitted up to perform a single opera
tion, viz : to take the f sh as food, burn out
the carbon by means of its respiratory func
tions, and deposit the remainder in the shape
of an incomparable fertilizer. But how many
ages have these depositions of seventy feet in
thickness been accumulating J
That a little 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 barren
lands, is one of a thousand facts to show how
apparently insignificant agencies in the econ
omy of nature produce momentous results."
Tcreisji Fust Wheat. Thero have been
received at the Patent Office one hundred
bushels of Turkish flint wheat, procured by the
United States Dragoman at Constantinople,
from the foot of Mount Olympus. The wheat
has 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 koepin, as was indicated
bv a sainplo shown us, u.-KiU In vutt x-a
this country, by Captain Porter of the Navy,
four years ago. We learn that the Sultan takes
a lively interest in the affairs of this country,
and has intimated that there are other wheats
in Ills dominions which would be highly desi
rable for our government to obtain.
A plan has been suggested which would un
doubtedly prove highly advantageous to the
agricultural interests of this coui.try cf im
porting largo quantities of wheat from the
shores of tho Mediterranean and Black Seas
lor supplying our farmers with seed at about
the cost of tho 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 with 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 somo proper authority, by whom the
excess of cost may be refunded to them. We
understand that wheat of an excellent quality
can be purchased at Constantinople, under or
dinary circumstances, lor 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 tli-3 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 Simile tft Certain Ctre foti Pjr.rs.
In view of the immense suffering by this dis
tressing complaint, I request spcae'ln your
columns to make known a certain, safe and
simple remedy, with the hopo that it will be
copied by other journals, that all afflicted may
have the" benefit of it. It is simply white pine
pitch, mad into the size of ordinary pills, and
from ten to eighteen, (according to tho state
of the disease,) taken during the day, until re
lief is had. One case among the many which
have been cured was that of a person who, af
ter havim failed to obtain relief from the most
eminent medical skill, and even suflercd a re
sort to the knife, without obtaining relief, has
been entirely cured by the above, and now en-
jovs excellent health. 1 our3, &c, 11. A.
N. B. The pitch should be used in its natu
ral state, or in the condition it is in when ta
ken from th tree. Albany Alias.

' A Lady o.x 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
has wrought in regard to shaving. Once, ev
erybody shaved, but now, I mnch mistake, if
every gentleman has not found to shave or not
to shave, a qnestion suggested by his morning
toilet. Alas for the razor-strop man. His oc
cupation is nearly gone. I hope he will suc
ceed in finding another, for the present gene
ration will be a bearded race.
"1 was quite interested last winter in read
ing a XaturaI History of the Human Species,'
by Lieutenant-Colonel Charles 11. Smith, in
which ho states that the bearded races are the
conquering races. For this reason the beard
less races are averse to the 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. Jcnghis,
Timurand JSadir Shah, were directiy, or in
their ancestry, descended from Caucasian mo
thers, and hence, also, the jealous exclusion of
European women from China. T he progres
sive nations, be tells ns, 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 the forest. IIow much
of bis proud beauty he owes to his magnificent
mane, bhave him, and he is king no longer.
"I cannot imagine whv a beard is given to
man, unless it is to try his patience, if he is to
spend r.;s time m 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 dignity, and is certainly an clement of
manly beauty. Tho Father of the Faithful
and all the old Patriarchs and Prophets wore a
beard ; so tid tlie fcaviotir, 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 uiod-
n innovation to shave off the whole beard.
It was not commotr before the commencement
of (he last century. Moses forbade the Jews
to mar the corners of the beard, and David,
when Lis Embassadors were insulted by Ila
nan's shaving oil" one-half their beards", per
mitted them to tarrv at Jeric'uo till their
beards had crown.
While the beard, properly wornl is nn or
nament, it 13 sometimes rendered hideous by
inc manner in winch it is trimmed. A round
mass of bristles on the chin is never becom
ing, yet sometimes thin-cheeked, long-faced
gentlemen elongate their countenances in thia
war; o!t-?a these tuffs irr-part alow, animal
expression; they never confer dignity nr
bear.ty. Some few are greatly improved by
full vhiskcr3, others by a moustache. Son:e
look best with the beard trimmed rather close.
It requires an artist's eye to decide on what is
most becoming. Nature leaves a varying out
line to the beard which is more perfect than
any semi-circie cut by the razor.
"Perhaps you may think I have wandered
from my proper sphere in writingabout 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 tho sulject ol ladies dress
for another day. Yours, &c,
