True Loveliness.
BY CHARLES SWAIN.
•
She who thinks a noble heart
Bettor than a noble mien—
Honors VIRTUE more than art,
Though 'tis less in fashion seen—
.- Whatsoe er her fortune be,
She's the bride—the wife—for rue!
. ,
She who deems the inward grace
Far surpassei outward show,
She who values lesS the face
Than that charm the soul can throw—
Whatseeer her, fortune be,
She's the bride—the wife—for me!
She who knows the heart requires
.tVomething mom than lips of dew—
That when love's brief rose expires,
Love itself dies with it too—
Whatsoe'er her fortune be,
She's the bride—the wife—for me!
MISCELLANEOUS.
The Mechanic.
In the circles of false refinement, or
where true refinement never dwells, you
may hear the expression sometimes used,
as if in derision, or commisseration, " Oh!
ho is only a mechanic!" It may seem
strange, but there are men and women, too,
who can boast no other lineage themselves,
and who, when told ofthis poor man's mis
fortunes, or that man's sudden fall, pass o
ver the matter with the old remark of "He's
only a mechanic—no matter, God help
him—ho is only a mechanic." God does
help him, my friends—God helps those
who help themselves; and I say it boldly
here this day, that there are far more hap
py, prosperous, aye, noble men among the
mechanics of this our land, than in any
other class of equal number. "Only a
mechanic!" Why I remember there was
a certain inan called Felix in the Scrip
tures. What his pedigree was, Ido not
know, but his countrymen were a proud
race and hated the mechanics. But one
of these despised - inechanics, a tent maker,
made this same Felix tremble. "Only a
mechanic!" Why, Noah was a ship-wright
—Solomon an architect. And who built
the pyramids—who the ancient cities,
whose ruins all the historians, philosophers
aand learned men of modern times are un
blo to explain 1 The great torn ple of the
holy city—Tyre and Sidon, Balbec, Per
sepolis, Babylon & Palmyra ! Who built
them? "Ohl it was only a mechanic !"
Young Men, Help Yourselves.—"Prov
idence,' we arc told, "helps those who help
themselves." A true proverb, and wor
thy to be stamped on every heart. Pass
ing on through life, you will find many a
stream that willcross your path-;--but don't
sit down and mourn. - If you can't wade
across, throw stones to stand upon, or
bring forth a dead tree from the forest, &
you will soon make a bridge and be safe
on the opposite side. To-day you are op
posed in your project. • bon% stop:--don''
go back—lmeei the opposer—persevere—
and you will conquer—Providence will as
sist you. You have failed in business—
come out from under the toad stool of des
pondency and try again. Zounds! if you
don't help yourselves and persevere, you
will do nothing, and be punched at by ev
ery beggar and every: pauper on crutches,
who,passeg along. Your friends have di
ed ; bury them—but don't linger in the
church yard mourning because they are
gone; you may go next. Up with you ;
wipe off your tears and be happy—'tis the
only way.
In fine, help yourselves in all places;
at all times ; and Providence will assist
you, smile on you, and make life a scene
of actual enjoyment and real pleasure.
HINTS, FOR THE SEnson.—Cutting
Bushes and Destroying Weeds.—All use
less bushes & briars, growing about your
pastures and fields, may be cut this month,
or grabbed up by the roots and burnt, as
well as all filthy and pernicious weeds.
Compost Heaps.--This month and the
next two is the proper time for collecting'
materials forzanure. Marsh and swamp
mud, peat, flre scrapings of roads, lanes,
ditches, and fence sides, mould and leaves
from the woods, marsh grass, the sweep
ings of your dwelling, refuse vegetables,
the slops and suds of your kitchen, wash
room, or chamber, mixed with oyster shell
limo, and the contents of your barnyards,
pig pens and hen houses, comprise the ve
ry best elements for a compost manure.
It is preferable that the heaps be formed
under a shed, or covered with a thick lay
er of sod or mold.
Draining Wet Lands.--Any wet fields
or pastures of stiff clay, that are water-log
ged during a considerable portion of the
year, may be deeply drained during this
month and the next two, while the ground
is dry. By this means, they will bo de
prived of their surplus moisture, and con
verted into friable moulds.
.Ploughing for Winter Wheat.—As this
month advances, it will be time to think of
breaking up your ground for sowing win
ter wheat. Let it be remembered that
"deep ploughing is ono of the farmer'sbest
helps." Before wet lands are deeply plough
ed, however, they should be thoroughly
drained. -

(Kr Col. Noland, editor of the Bates
ville, (Ark.,)Eagle, tells a good story of a
man being in a very warm and tight blace:
The late Col. Allen 'Oakly, was stop
ping for the night at a 'public house. The
weather was warm, and Oakly, when he
retired to bed, divested himself of all of
his clothes but his shirt. About midnight
a terrible fuss was raised in the yard; a
catamount had been rustled up, and the
. dogs were fightina e' it. After having it
;round and round for some time, theygot
/ to the door, which flying open - , in popped
the catamount. You may guess there
was getting out of the way 1 Poor - Oakly
Aaw no chance to make the door, and
nought safety by climbing up the logs to
what should have been the loft; but it was
deficient of everything but a cross pole;
this he straddled with an expectation of
hearing, if not witnessing the fight going
on below. But like the gallent hero of
Cerra Gordo, he soon had painful evidence
that a man can be attacked behind as well
as befoie. He had waked up a wasp's
nest, and they were putting it to him in
style. One hand was necessary to hold
on with, and the other slapped some. To
come down was to incur the danger of a
mad cat's teeth, and to hold on was not a
bedlf roses: Yet Oakly did holron—
and ',lfb did, the wasps. Poor fellow! it was
no easy matter for him to ride the next

Pat -;--(after a pause.)--"Well jeinmy;
ye haven't been a great sinner,—yell go

Jim--"Oh yes, Piit.:—to be sure I stole
some of the government timber.."
Pat—(taking Jemmy's hand and assu
ming a diplomatic air,)— "Well, farewell
to ye; when ye reaches the geed place toll
them you're well .acquainted wid Pat
MeGarlin," -
'Hero Pat started for the door,
but, as if
suddenly thinking of Jemmy's dishonesty
in stealing the governmenttimber he wheel
ed around to his friend, and seriously and
earnestly exclaimed—
" But Jemmy, if anything happens to ye
that ye should go to the other .place,
tell them ye don't know divil a word a
boutnw."
Oun Momnuns.—Around the idea of
one's mother, the mind naturally clings
with fond affection. It is the first dear
thought stamped upon our infant hearts,
when yet soft and capable of receiveing
the most profound impressions. Our pas
sions and our willfulness may. lead us far
from the object of our filial love; we may
become wild, headstrong, and angry at
her counsels or her oppositions; but when
death has stilleli her monitory voice, and
nothing but calm memory remains.. to re
capitulate her virtues and good deeds,
affection, like a flower beaten to the
ground by a rude storm,. raises up her
head, arid smiles amidst her tears.
FALCUIVG.
Sowing To ps.
The sowing of the flat varieties of the
turnip, intended for the kitchen and the
feeding of stock during the winter and
spring, should be performed in Canada and
the northern parts of the United States by
the middle of July; but in Virginia, Mary
land, Pennsylvania, Now Jersey, the south
ern parts of New York, and in the West
ern States, the time may be prolonged un
til the middle of August, and in some p!a
c,es, even until September. If sown ear
lier, they are not so tender nor so finely
flavored; and if sown later, they will not
generally attain'a full - growth.
It has been proved by long experience
in this country, that old sod well rotted, or
newly cleared land, recently burnt over,
produces the largest and finest flavored!
roots. Those who do not possess lands of
this description, and design to enter into
field culture on a large scale, must render
their ground as rich as possible, by the ad
dition of manure. An acre ofground will
require from 250 to 400 lbs. of Peruvian
guano; 15 to 20 bushels of bone dust; 20
tcr3o bushels of wood ashes; or from 500
to 1000 bushels of fine, well rotted barn
yard manure.
In the cultivation of turnips there are
four things which ought to be carefully
observed. Ist, unless the land be 'folded'
or burnt over, it should be reduced to a
finely pulverised state. This may be-ac
complished-by rough, deep ploughing - just
before the freezing of the ground; 2d, to
force forward the young plants into a
rough leaf, in order to secure them from
the attack of flies. This may be done by
soaking the seeds for 30 hours in a solu
tion of 1 lb. of guano to 10 gallons of wa
ter, or a gallon of water infused with of
an ounco of chloride of lime. 3d, to have
the ground clean and free from weeds be
fore the seeds are sown, and watching the
growth of weed afterwards, and eradicating
them before they choke the crop; 4th, to
keep the ground constantly loose and open
about the plants, by stirring it when the
weather is dry. The oftener the ground
is stirred the better, provided you do not
disturd the roots of the plants.
. . .
oficial in these cases. It may be prepar.i
ed M the following way : Put two quarts
of water upon two quarts of unslackedlime;
let it stand till the ebullition is: over; then
pour off the liquor for use, and add five
'gills oflinseed-oil and two ounces of sugar
of lead. Mix them Avon . together, and
keep the solutioii in a bottle for use. When
the animal comes in from work at night,
the sores should bo washed with soap and
water, dried with a soft towel, and dress
ed with a feather dipped in the mixture.—
Tho process should bb repeated every
night till the sores arc healed, observing
to shake the mixture well every time it is
used.
POETRY SOBERED Dowrt.—l'm thinking
of the time, Kate, when, sitting by thy side,
and picking beanS, I gazed on thee, and
felt a' peacock's pride. ' In silence leaned
wo o'er the pan, and neither spoke a word F
but the rattling of the beans, Kate, was all
the sound wo heard. Thy auburn curls
hung down, Kate, and kissed thy lilly
check ; thy azure eyes, half filled with
tears, bespoke a spirit meek. To be so
charmed, as I was then, had ne'cr before
occurred, when the rattling of the beans,
Kate, was all the sound we heard: I tho't
it was not wrong, Kate, so leaning o'er the
dish, as you snatched up a lot of beans, I
snatched a nectared kiss; a sudden show
er made blind my eyes, I neither saw nor
stirred, but the rattling of the beans, Kate,
was all the sound I heard.
GATES:—Every field on the farmshould
be entered by a good self-shutting and self
fastening sate. A proper inclination in
hanging will secure the former requisite,
and a good latch, properly constructed, the
latter. Each field should be numbered,
and the number painted on the gate-post.
Let the fanner who has bars instead of
gates make a trial of their comparative con
venience, by taking them out and repla
cing them, without stopping, as often as
he does in one year on his farm, say about
six hundred times, and he cannot fail to be
satisfied which is the cheapest for use.
CUTTING AND CURING CLOVER HAY. -
Clover should be cut as soon as it comes
into blossom ; & after laying in the swarth
until it wilts, it should be put into cocks
to complete the curing. In stacking it a
way, a peck of salt should be sprinkled o
ver each ton of hay, as it is formed into a
stack. If thus cured, and this precaution
of salting be observed, the hay will be
greener, more fragrant, and less liable to
loose its leaves on being fed out to stock,
and, withal, will be much more grateful to
their palates.
