Hurrah for ihe father of all the green West, r or ine uucKoye who ioiiows me piougu : Thefoeman in terror his valor confest, Ahd we'll honor the conqueror now. His country assailed in the darkest of days, ' To her rescue impatient he flew ; The war whoop's fell blast, and the rifle's red blaze, But awaken'd Old Tippecanoe. .OerMnumee's dark waters,along with brave Wayne Green laurels he gleaned with his sword ; But when peace on the country came smiling again, His steel to the scabbard restored. But wise in the Council, as brave in the Feld, His country still asked for his aid ; And the Birth of Young Empires his wisdom re vealed, The Sage and the Statesman displayed. But the red torch of war, the tomahawk's gleam, To the battle again called the true ; And there where the stars and the stripes brightly stream, Rushed the Hero of Tippecanoe. Now hark! from the far frozen wilds .of the North, What battle shouts burthen the gale ,-.: The hosts of Old England ride gallantly forth, And Captive und Conquered bewail. His"country recalls the bold Chieftain she-loves, The sword of " Old Tip" she leclaims ; And victory heralds wherever he moves, The path of the Hero of Thames ! Hurrah for the Hero of Tippecanoe . ' The Parmer who ploughs at North Bend ! ?A Soldier so brave and a Patriot so true. Will find in each freeman a friend. Huna for the Log Cabin Chief of our choice ! For the Old Indian Fighter, hurra ! Hurra ! and from mountain to valley the voice -Of the People re-echoes hurra ! Then come to the ballot box boys, come along, He never lost battle for you ; -Let us down with oppression and tyranny's throng, And up with Old Tippecanoe. S. J. B. Birds, Caaker Worms. I see it stated in your paper of Fri daj', that the probable reason why the canker worm commits small ravages in Floh,is found in the care withw-hich the birds are protected. I was re-minded of a remark in Peabody's Life of "Wilson : " He enters into a deliberate cal culation of the exact value of the ser vices of the red-winged black-bird, which certainly bears no good repu tation on the farm, showing that- al lowing a single bird fifty insects a day, which wouldbe a short allowance, a single pair Would consume 12.000 in four months, and if there are a mil lion pairs of these birds in the United States.the amount of insects islessby twelve thousand millions, than if the red-wing- were terminated." Let anv person during the brooding season of roooins or omer Dims, rise oy oreaK of day and count the number of times the old ones return in one hour, with -worms and insects, or, if he can, let him count through the dav. and the number wiliTe found to be almost in-! credible. The practice of killing birds for mere amusement is not merely in dicative of cruelty and want of feeling, but is exceedingly detrimental fo' the interests of the community. And, now that I am upon the sub ject of insects and worms, let me add that there is a very unreasonable pre judice against toads, They are ex ceedingly valuable in gardens and otherplaces, inconsequence of the ex terminating warfare they are constant ly wasmg ajjainst bugrs and worms. Any person who has them in his gar den has a treasure there ; and if he will watch them closely, he .will find them accomplishing more in. the way of preserving his. squash anjd cucum- i ber. vines and other vegetables" than5 he 'does with all his troughs of liquid. Boston Pourier. A stir-up. A gentleman in a neigh boring town,remarkable for his shrewd . ness. had made repeated requests to the selectmen, that a very bad place in the road near his house might be repaired, of which, however, they took no notice. One winter evening it happened that as two of -the selectmen were passing, their carriage broke through the ice. The gentleman came to the door, and,- observed the men up to their knees, in snow and water,, endeavoring to extricate their carriage, thus accosted Them " Ah ! - good morning, gentlemen, !

Xw Vthme a ntrthcuf uith tit A oh Tin I rn ' JL HE Ladies' Companion, established in Mi, 1834 a popular and highly esteemed magazine of General Literature and the Fine Arts; einbuh.3h with gorgeous and costly engravings on steel, a.id. the Quarterly fashions ; and also with Fashiona ble and popular Music, arranged for the Piano Forte, and Guitar. Since the publication of the number fCr'-Novem-ber, the demand for the Ladies' Companion tins, been unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine anticipations. At the commencement of the vol ume an additional number of copies wer printed,, which was considered at the time adequate to sa tisfy all the orders which might'b'e received, and leave a considerable number on hand for subse quent calls. The publisher is more than gratified m stating that the whole of an edition of six thou sandfive hundred copies, was completely exhaus ted before the issuing of the third number of the volume; and, consequently, he was compelled to reprint a second edition of two thousand copies, making the circulation of the Ladies' Companio r. eight thousand five hundred, at the termination of the tenth volume. In consequence of this nre;.t and unparalleled increase of new subscribers, he has determined to commence the new volume for the ensuing year with thirteen thousand: horing that he will thus be enabled to supply all the de mands for the Ladies' Companion, as well as those disappointed in commencing with the tenth vol ume. Ihe proprietor .-.els grateiul tvr that en couragement which has keen so lavishly bestowed upon his magazine, and at the same time he begs to assure the readers of the Ladies' Companion, that it is determinedresolution to meet it with a correspondinfir liberality to merit its continuance. The work appears in beautiful new type, printed on the finest paper ; smoothly pressed, and neatly stitched in a handsome cover, The Ladies' Companion contains a lareer quan tity of reading than any other magazine issuC ifc in this country, and its subscription juice is onTy" three dollars a year, while the great ccmbinatu n of talent secured for the ccming year will render it unequalled by any other periodical. Svlenaid Steel .n ravines, prepared bv Mr. A. Dick, ornament the work one of which accompa nies each number. These plates arc entirely new, and are engraved at a heavy expense by one ol the best arstists in America, expressly for the maga zine. The designs are selected with a view of in teresting the general reader, and enhancing the value of the work, for, its superior juctoral embel- hments. It 13 with pnde the proprietor announ ces that the Ladies' Companion is the onlj' maga zine published, m which new and elegant steeL plates appear regularly. lhose accompanyitig other monthly pencdicals, are generally mstworn out in arxuals. In addition to the cnravin&. mentioned, a correct plate of the Quarterly Fash ions ior Ladies, will appear in the June, .Septem ber, December, and March numbers, independent of the usual embellishment. It is the detennina- -tion of the . proprietor, that these fashion plate shall appear in a style hitherto unknown.

It will continue to be a subject of more than.usrual care to him, and to the Professor under whose - su pervision it is placed, to make that portion of-the magazine deserving of the countenance of every lover of music. Tae Work in General. Of every department art equally careful supervision will be strictly exer cised by the Editors, and all appropriate expandi tures will be liberally bestowed, as it is the- de sign of the publisher, with the aid of his contribu tors and the advice of his friends to make tho-La-dies Companion distinguished for the beauty and accuracy of its typography, the variety and .high tone of its literary articles, the quality and value of its music, and the unequal splendorof its pic toral embellishments, and the accuracy of its quar terly fashions. The proprietor pledges himse'lf to use all honorable means to maintain the superiori ty which the Ladies Companion has obtained. For five years he has steadily pursued a course or improvement, and he flatters himself that his pre sent facilities are such as to give the work eminent advantages over aU'other publications. From the foregoing it will be perceived that xha Ladies' Companion embraces every department within the rango of Belles-Lettres and tha-Fino Arts : and no exertions or expense will be deemed too great to render the work equal to any other extant. The flattering and general testimonials nf nearly every contemporary journal in the United States, and in fact, many on the other side- of the Atlantic, have strongly asserted the undeniablo claims of the Ladies' Companion to the support of the public generally. There is no work tht gives its readers such a great return for their money. Terms Three Dollars a year in advance, ef'Fovt Dollars during the year. No subscription received for less than a year.
