    The Visit of the Queen.
While official persons are preparing to cele
brate tho visit of the Queen with festivities
and illuminations, a poet in the Dublin Irish
man, breathes such a welcome to the Royal
guest, as follows:
THE SECOND ADVENT.
p?hout yourselves hoarse, ye supple slaves!
Cod grant it do you good!
But carpet first the frequent graves.
Nor let the dead intrude
Make bonfires of those ghastly bones,
That ne'er have buried been,
And down in Piean-hymns the groans
Of Scull and Skibbereen!
She comes.' make every window bright!
Frepare the worthless show
' i'would wring her woman's heart oulright
To learn one half your woe,
Reveal not how they fled or died,
Who loved you to the last;
13 ut lose, in one day's tinsel pride,
The future and the past.
Even while Royal galleys wait
Fair seas and fav'ring skies,
far to the south, with doleful freight,
A lonely vessel ilies!
Oh! turn your thoughts from all theglaro
That cheats your eyes around,
And sec your noblest pining there,
Your best and truest bound.
Alas! tor them 'tis vain to weep
Assume a cheerful smile;
And rouse the tones of joy that sleep
Long silent through the Isle
ko knows not, she can never know,
What sufferings ours have been
"Then daub with red the cheeks of woe,
And fly to greet the Queen.
The Land That We Live In.
BY A. B. MEEK.
Oh! bright is the land that wo livo in,
And soft blow the breezes around
The stars make a palace of heaven,
And flowers aoagel the ground!
The orange and ches Inut are flinging
Their ordors divine on the gale,
Aud the mocking-bird's melody ringing
From the bowers that circle the vale!
Then here's to tho land that we live iu
The land of the locust and lime!
And the song for the sweet stars of heaven,
That brighten this beautiful clime!
But drearer by far to the minstrel,
Than alltha sweet wealth of this land.
Are the maidens who dwell in its bowers,
By mountain, savanna and strand!
And all its rich trophies were given,
As tributes of beauty to these;
And these are the stars of our heaven
The flowers that gladden the breeze!
Then here' to the land that we live in
The land of the locust and lime!
And a song for the sweet stars of heaven ,
That brighten this beautiful clime!
Twas hymned by a bard that the planets
Once, charmed from their passionate home,
Assumed the fair featuiesof woman,
And dwelt in tho valleys of Rome!
Bat bure, if a land e'er presented
Temptation to angels, 'lis ours,
And the vision of song was invented
From forms in those soft, sunny bowers!
Then here's to tho land that we livo in
The land of tiic locust and lime!
And a song for the sweet stars of heaven,
That brightens this beauliful clime!
A Belle of the Olden Time.
The following picture of a belle in New
x ork, in IbaO, is copied from a new nove
entitled 'The Young Patroon.'
Look now through the doorway which
partly reveals the mysteries of a half-acre
kitchen, and tell me what vou see. I do
not want to know about the mountain o
freshly-fried cookies on the hearth, or the
long row of pale and unbaked mince pies
on tne dresser, or the depth of that Shad
rach looking oven, glowing with unconr
mon heat for the reception, but rather
an, yes, see her now crimping with
white fingers the edge of the 42d pic, and
-turning round with, a face bewitching in
in unconscious beauty, to give a laughing
word to a little brother on the floor. That
round snowy arm, upraised ia playful men
ace, tnosc solt blue eyes, those glittering
teeth, rcvaled.by 'chirrups,' and that brown
glossy hair, scarce kept by force from
curling, are part and parcel of sweet little
Jessie Van Corlear. The golden beams of
the wintry sun, streaming through the'win-
dow, are bathing her beautiful form in
light and casting her moving shadows on
the floor, thrice strange and wondrous to
the little learned there. But Jessie has
another sunlight emanating from within,
the perpetual product of a loyous and in
nocent heart, gilding and permeating all
things witn its Deams;
She was made for happy thoughts
For playful wit and ia'ughtcr,
injiDg on the hills alone.
And echo singing after."

The preacher was prevented from taking
his part in the ceremony, and a newly crea

be present was called upon to officiate in
his place. The good man's knees began

ceiline. while an audible voice in a corner
of the room was heard to sav:
IIe is daawing a deed to a tract of land,'
and they all laughed.
In the name of God, amen!' he began
nirain, only to hear another voice in a
loud whisper say:
'He's making his will, I thought he
couldn't live long, he looks so powerful

'Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray,'
was the next essay, when some erudite
gentleman remarked:
He is not dead but sleepeth.'
Oh yes! Oh yes!' continued the Squire.
A voice replied, 4Oh no! Oh no! don't

Some person out of

Fair Retort.
At a hotel a short time since, a
jrirl in-
quired ot a gentleman at the table if his
cup was out. 'No,' said he, 'but my cof
fee is.' The poor girl was considerably
confused, but determined to pay him in his
own coin. While at dinner, the stage came
up, and several coming in, the gentleman
asked 4Does the stage dine here?' 'No
sir,' exclaimed the girl in a sarcastic tone,
but the passengers do.'

"Thinks I lo )Iyself.
We are indebted to a worthy and ob
serving friend for many of the following
hints.
When I see amass of chips accumulate
f 11 i
in a larmers uacK. yard, remaining year
after year, 'thinks 1 to myself, if the coar
ser ones were raked out, they would serve
for fuel, while the finer parts, with the ad
dition of soap-suds, &c, from the house,
would afford a valuable source of manure.
When I see a convex barn-yard, 'thinks
I to myself,' there is comparatively but
little manure made there.
W hen 1 sec banks of manure resting
against a barn during the summer season,
serving only to rot the building 'thinks I
to myself, that manure might be better
employed.
When I see the drainings of a barn-yard
finding their way into gullies and rivulets,
while with small expense, they might be
thrown on to a valuable swell or declivity,
thinks I to myself,' that farmer is blind
to his own interest.
When I see a hog yard not well sup
plied with articles for making manure,
'thinks I to myself,' that man suffers loss
for the want of care.
When I see a piece of hoed ground in
a mowing field, and the turf, stalks and
stones, that were carried out by the plow
or harrow, not collected together, 'thinks I
to myself,' there is something slovenly in
the case.
When I see plowing done, year after
year, in the same track bv tne side ot a
in the same
fence or a gully, till a dyke of considerable
height is thrown up, and of course a cor
responding leaness in the interior, 'thinks
I to myself,' there is a want ofjiood hus
bandry.
When I see a stone wall topped out
with a single tier of round stone, 'thinks I
to myself,' ihe upper foot in the height of
such walls ought never to have been put
on and look out for dull scythes and loss of
hay.
When I see a fruit tree loaded with
twice the top necessary for bearing well;
and this' perhaps partly dead, thereby
keeping the needed rays of the sun from
the under crop, 'thinks I to myself,' here
is an indication of bad husbandry.
When I see stones piled round the trunk
of a fruit tree, 'thinks 1 to myself,' here is
an invitation to suckers and to mice, and
if dull scythes should follow, it would not
be strange
When I see a total failure of a crop of
Indian corn, 'thinks I to myself, if that
man had bestowed all the manure and per
haps two-thirds the labor on half the
ground, he would have had a fair crop and
a tine piece of ground for a crop of Rata
Baga the following year.
u hen I see a farmer selling his ashes at
ten cents per bushel, 'thinks I to myself,'
he had better have given his purchaser
fifty cents to leave it for his corn and
grain. Maine Farmer.
Potatoes Mixing al the Root.
A correspondent of an exchange paper
wants to know if different kinds of pota
toes will mix at the root. It is, we sup
pose, a somewhat common idea amoiif
farmers, that different varieties of potatoes
if planted near each other, will intermix,
so as to produce new kinds. We are
convinced the idea is incorrect. We do
not believe it is possible for potatoes to
mix iu the tubers, any more than different
kinds af turnips to mix m the bulbs. Ao
one supposed such a mixture possible in
regard to turnips, beets oi carrots. The
different varieties may mix, to be sure, but
they must mix in the blossom, and the
seed produced by the blossoms containing
such intermixture, must be planted m or
der to obtain the new variety thus origina
ted. So it is with potatoes; the balls
which grow on the top of the stalk, con
tain the seed; and by plants being raised
from them, and in this way only, can new
kinds be had.
A Cow Worth Havhi?.
Mr. George B. Brickerhoif, of Owasco,
made from one cow, five years old, the
past spring, eighteen lbs. 2 ozs. of butter
for the week ending Saturday, June 30th.
-This quantity she averages during the
summer season. l ne summer sne was
three years old she made eighteen lbs. per
week, and she would have made more lor
the above week, but for the fact that three
of the very hottest days were included in
it. In flavor and color it was equal to

any we ever ate, ami we uouoi h u oe ex
celled by the celebrated Orange County
butter. The cow can be bought for $150.
Auburn, N. Y. Journal.
Prunin
Summer pruninp- is sometimes necessa
ry ia order to give form and proper direc
tion to nursery trees, and standard trees
may need thinning in order to expose the
fruit to light and air. Grape-vines may
need thinning, owing to a want of suffi
cient pruning in the spring or last fall.
Hut in pruning trees thoroughly, particu-
arly if large limbs are to be cut oil, it is
best to defer the business till the last of
July, August, or the former part of Sep
tember.
Late in summer and early in autumn,
tne Dark aocs not peei as it uoes early in
the summer, when it often starts from the'
tree which is injured, by going into trees
and stepping on limbs with hard shoes.
The sap will ooze out of some trees
early in the summer, which not only in
jures them generally, but it often causes
the wounded part to decay.
But in late pruning, the wood, when the
branch is cut off, becomes sound and well
seasoned, and though it may not heal over
so readily as when cut early in summer or
spring, it remains in a healthy state. 1 nis
is the main consideration. What would
it avail for a surreon to heal a wound at
the surface while it was festering at the
bottom.
Late in summer and early in fall is not
only the most favorable season for the
benefit of the trees, but it is a convenient
and pleasant s eason for the operation.

The above is the title pago of a largo and

ges.just published. In May, 1S4G, the author,
a lawyer, threw aside Chitty and Dlackstone,
nnd taking the sword and carbine, enlisted in
the cavalry regiment then raising or his State,
(Tennessee.) In the interim he kept a copious
journal of every thing thst fell under his no
lice worthy of record, relating to the life of a
soldier, the country through which he travelled
and the modes of life of its inhabitants. Also,
giving i vivid description of the different en.
gagements of our army while in Mexico, viz:
Palo Alto, Reseca de la Palma, Monterey,
Buena Vista, Bombardment of Vera Cruz,
Cerro Gordo, Cherebusco and Chepultepec,
with all the minor engagements, and a copious
detail of personal adventures, anccdatcs and
incidents of camp life, and Mexican scenery
and customs.
We feel confident that tho work will find in
the people of Cambria liberal purchasers, to
reward the gallant soldier, who has enlarged
upon the history of the Volunteers and of the
