The Dreamer.
The following beautiful lines are from a
volume of -Poems by a Seamstress," and are
aid to be truly the production of a poor Eng
lish girl.
Not in the laughing bowers,
Where, by green twining elm, a pleusant
hade,
At Euuimer'a noon is made;
And whero the swift looted tours
Steal the rich breath of the enamored flowers;
Dream I. Nor whore the golden glories be,
At sunset laving o'er the flowing sea,
And to pure eye the faculty in given ,
To trace the smooth ascent from earth to Ilea.
en.
Nut ou the couch of ease,
With all the appliances of joys at baud;
Soft light, eweet fragrance, beauty at command;
Viands that might a god-like palate please,
And music's soul creative ecstacies,
Dream I Nor gloating o'er a wild estate,
Till the ful', self-complacent heart, elate,
Well satisfied with bliss and mortal birth,
Sighs for an immortality on earth.
But where the incessant din
Of iron hands and roar of brazen throats.
Join their unmingling notes:
While the long summer day is pouring in,
Till the day is gone, aud darkness doth Lcgiu;
Dream 1 as in the comer where I lie.
On wintry nights, just covered from the sky;
Such is ray fate, and barreu though it seem,
Yet thou blind, soulless scorner, yet I dream !
And, yet I dream
Dream what? Were men more just, I might
have been
How strong, how fair, how kiudly and serene,
Glowing of heart, and glorious of mien,
The conscious crown to nature's blissful scene.
In just and equal brotherhood t o glean,
With all mankind, exhaustions pleasure keen,
Such is my dream.
And. yet I dream
I, the despised of fortuuo, lift mi no eye.
Bright with the lustre of integrity,
In unjppealing wretchednes on high,
And the last rage of destiny defy;
Resolved alone to live alone to die.
Nor swell. the tide of human misery.
And, yet I dream
Dreams of sleep where dreams no more 6hall
come,
My labt, my firt.t, my only welcome home I
Rost, unbehclJ, since life's beginning stago,
Sole remnant of my glorious heritage.
Unalienable, I shall find thee yet,
And, in thy soft embrace, the past forget!
Thus do I dream.
Snag by a Sailor at Uie Helm.
The moon shines bright.
And bark bounds light,
As the stag bounds over the lea:
We love the strife
Of a sailor's Iifa,
And we love our dark blue sea.
Now high, now low.
To the depths wo go,
Now lise on the surge again:
We make a track
O'er the ocean's back.
And play with the hoary mane.
('earless we face
The storm in the chase.
When the dark cloud., fly before it ;
And meet the shock
Of the fierce Siroc,
Though Death breathes hotly o'er it.
Tbo landjman may quail
At the shout of the gale.
Peril's the sailor's joy;
Wild as the waves
Which his vessel braves,
Is trio lot of tla sailor boy.
A friend tells us that a little girl from
the metropolis, who had visited a town not
;t thousand miles from New York, was
filled with surprise at the sight of a ?ii
milking a cow. 4I didn't know you did
it in that way, she said, with a round
eyed wonder; 'I thought the)- took hold
of the cow's tail, and pumped the milk
out of her. What's she get such a long
tail for?'
To Shake ojf Trouble. Set about do
ing good to somebody; put on your hat,
and o and visit the sick and the poor;
inquire into their wants and administer
unto i hem; s:ck out the desolate and op
pressed, aud tell them of the consolation
of religion. I have often tried this meth
od, and have always found it the best
mtdicine for a heavy heart. Howard.
Awful Warning. 'My son,' said an
eld turbaned Turk one day, taking his
child by the hand, in the street of Cairo,
and pointing out to him on the opposite
iilca Frenchman, just impoited, in all
the elegance of Parisian costume, 'My
son! look there! if ever you forget Gud
and his Prophet, you may come to look j
liKC that'.'

FFX'ooper once slurred a certain govei
nor, by attributing the disease in potatoes
to 'the mortification they felt at seeing so
Fmall a member of their faniilv' in the gu
bernatorial chair." . '
Feeding Cattle.
An Enriish writer observes that two
preat Doints in feedin? cattle are regularity
and a Darticular care of the weaker indi
viduals. On this last account there ought
to be Dlentv of trough ot rack room, that
too many may not feed together; in which
verv common case the -weaker are not only
tramnled down by the stronger, but they
are worried and become cowed and spirit
less; than which there cannot be a more
unfavorable state for thrift; beside, these
are ever compelled to shift with the worst
of the fodder. This domineering spirit is
so remarkably prevalent among horned cat
tie. that the writer has a hundred times
observed the master beasts running from
crib to crib, and absolutely neglecting their
own provender for the sake ot driving tne
inferior from theirs. This is, much often-
er than suspected, the chief reason of that
indifference m a lot ot beasts alter a win
ter's keep. It is likewise he says, a very
common and very siiameiui sigut, in a uai
rv of cows, to see several of them gored
and wounded in a dozen places, merely
fiom the inattention of the owner, and the
neglect of clipping the horns of those that
butt. The weaker animals should be kept
apart; and in crib feeding in the yard, it is
a good method to tie up the master beasts
at their meals.
Dr. Dean says, 'there should be more
yards than one to a barn where divers sorts
of cattle are kept. The sheep should have
a yard by themselves at least; and the
young stock another, that they may be
"wholly confined to such fodder as the far
mer can afford them.
Raising Quiuces- .
A correspondent of the Horticulturist,
who raises this fruit of extraordinary ex
cellence, pursues the following course:
He selects good, deep, dry, rich soil;
which is deepened by a thorough use of
the subsoil plough, and manure applied
copiously and deeply, by dropping it in
J the bottom of each furrow as the plowing
! proceeds. Large and deep holes are dug
i for the trees; each receives half a barrel of
! good compost; the branches are shortened
one-halt, betore setting; and ttie sou wen
setded among the roots by drenching with
water before the hole is quite filled. All
fruit trees, by the way, should receive this
good treatment. lie does not lose one tree
in a hundred, by this excellent practice.
The pruning is given in autumn, and
consists of cutting out, crooked, crowded,
and decayed branches. Every autumn,
manure is spread round each tree, and af
ter a light plowing in spring, salt is spread
broadcast at the rate of ten bushels per
acre. - The salt is regarded of very great
consequence, but it must be applied in
connection with free manure every year.
The ground is kept mellow and clean by
constant cultivation, sugar beets, &c, being
found well adapted to the purpose. The
principle secret of success, it will thus be
perceived consists in cultivating and doing
every thing in the best manner: while oth
ers who do not succeed, do not cultivate
their trees at all. The writer states that
a good crop of quinces may be obtained
three years after transplanting, and the
'trees will continue in a productive state
thirty years.
Temperance Anecdote.
CHRISTMAS EVANS. -
Christmas, towards the end of his days,
became a total abstainer. A brother min-
j ister, who condemned not himself in the
; thing which he allowed, could not be
! brought over to the total system. Christ
mas polished an arrow, and put it in his
1 quiver ready for use. He was appointed
to preach; and, as usual, there were gatn-
erinirs from far and near: Mr. W , of
o - - -
A , the minister, was there too; but, as
if anticipating an attack, he said he should
not be present whilst Evans preached.
And yet, such was the fascination, that he
could not stay away; and by and by he
crept up into the gallery, w here the preach
er's eye, (for he had but one) which had
long been searching for him, soon discov
ered him. All went on as usual, un
til the time came when the arrow
might be drawn, Avhich was done sly
ly and unperceived. " 'I had a strange
dream the other night (said Christmas.)
I dreamed I was in Pandemonium, the
council chamber of Hades how 1 got
there I know not, but there I was. I had
not been there long before there came a
thundering rap at the gates, 'Beelzebub,
Beelzebub! you must come to earth direct
ly.' 4 Why, what's the matter?' 'O, they
arc sending out missionaries to teach the
heathen.' Are they, then I'll be coming.'
Beelzebub came and hastened to the place
of embarkation, where he saw the mission
aries and their wives, and a few boxes of
bibles and tracts, out turning round he saw
piled up rows of casks, labeled Gin, Hum,
Brandy. 'That, will do,' said he; 'no fear
yet. These casks will do more harm than
the boxes can do good;' and so saying, he
stretched his wimrs for hell arrain. But
after a time came another loud call 'They
are forming Bible Societies!' 'Are they!
Then I must go.' He went, and . found
two ladies going from house to house, dis
tributing the Word of God. . This won'1
do,' thought he; 'but 1 will see.' The la
dies visited an aged female, who received
a copy with much reverence, and mat
thanks; 'what a comfort it wiil be to me,'
said she. He loitered about, and when
the ladies were gone, the old woman came
to her door and peeped this way and that,
and then went in and came out aerain with
her bonnet on, carrying two things unuer
.
her apron out ot sight one was her new
Bible, which she pawned, and the other
was a small jug, in which she brought
home the gin she had bought with the mon
ey. . Thatviil do,' said he, 'no fear yet;'
and back he flew to his own place. Again
came a hasty summons 1 hey are lorm-
uiff a Temperance bocietyv A Temper
ance Society: What's that? I'll come and
see.' He came and saw, and ajrain flew
back, muttering. 'This won't do much
harm to my subjects they are forbidding
the use of ardent spirits, but they have left
my poor people all the ale and porter, and
the rich all the wines. No fear yet!'
Again came a louder rap than ever 'Ueel
zebub, you must come now, or we are al
ruined, for they are forming a 1 ee-tota
bociety. What in the name ot all my
imps is that?' 'To drink nothing at alias
a beverage but water!'- 'Indeed! that is
bad news. I must see after this.' And
he did; but he went back - again to satisfy
the anxious inquiries of his legions, who
were all qui vive about the matter. 4U,
said he, 'don't be alarmed; it's an awkard
affair, but it won't spread much yet, for al
the parsons are against it, and Mr. W
of A , (sending up an eagle glance o
his eye at him) is at the head of them!'
Whiz went the arrow and down came the
bird! Mr. W cried out 'But I won'
be at the head of them any longer;' and
walking camly down out of the gallery en
tered the table pew, and signed the pledge.

Abe Eaton's Visit to the Celebration.
'Abe' proceeds to tell the story of his
to Waynesboro' at the time of the celebra
tion on opening the Railroad:
Wal, they had a mighty to do,' about it
they did. There Gov. Dudley, Doctor
Andrews, Squire Griswold, Bill Lane
(him as was so near a beaten Stanley for
Congress,) old Dick Washington, and a
heap of 'big boys,' came down to the bor
ough to have a rale jolification, They
had the damdest biggist sort of a barbacue,
cords of old 'red eye,' and the big gun
they wanted every body to jine and have
a bustin frolic. Wal, it was norated over
the hull country, and as every body was
gwine, I thought I mought as well go, too
so I slipped the mar in the cart; an4put
out for the borough.
Wal, Doctor, I had a purty easy time
of it gwine down, I did the old mar shy
ing once and while when she heard any
lumbering about; but all things considerin,
Doctor, I managed purty well. That old
mar was a caution, Doctor. She was a
perfect sicrhL anv how. she was and if
ony pistil was shot off any war about her,
all h 11 could'nt keep her in tho cart.
Some of these days Doctor, I'll tell you
how she sarved me and brother Tart.
You know Tart, Doctor I know you do.
All the accident that happened was going
up the hill by Lew Cusgrave's thar, close
by Old Pike's, the Quaker, when some of
Lew's boys popped a cap on an old smoke
pole at a patridge, when h 11, Doctor,
how she did rip! She cavorted right smart
but it was no go she ony broke one try
pin, and arter gitting up the hill I fixed
that, and we proceeded tolerably well to
the borough.
Wal, Doctor, we got thar, and I thought
I mought as well get down and lead her
by the Court House. There was a heap
of people on the green, and didn't 'zactly
know what might happen, so got down, I
did, and slipped the bridle over my arm,
and was walking along, looking at the
crowd to see what was goin' on. Thar
was bundance of folks, Doctor, men wim
men, children, and niggers in a fuss oys
ter carts, and all such sort of doins plenty.
Wal, Doctor, I was proceeding on, tr in'
to find some place to hitch the mar to,
when Holy Moses! ker slam bang! went
the big gun! The old mar started, and
snatched me heels over head, my cart
struck an oyster cart oysters plates,
spoons, pans' and bowls, went flying
down I went but I held on to the bridle,
Doctor. I did, and arter a rip or so I sor
ter stopped her headway, and made out to
fret un.
Thunder and mud! Doctor, sich a sight
I never seed the afore vou'd a thought
it had been raining nothing but oysters and
plates for week here a pan, thar a puddle
of soun bip: enough to swim my old scovy
drake the oyster man a cussin everything
an inch high the old mar snortin, ana me
folks bollerin like blue blazes! Wal, Doc
tor, I sorter shuck myself, and was looking
round to see what all the luss was about,
when I seed old Artur old Artur Spikes
vnn know- him. Doctor, and Gmeral
Moze, with their mouths wide open and
nicrh about fit to burst. 'Go it Abe,' said
old Artur and go it I did, for twant half
a second before bang! went that cussed old
rnn ao-in!
Je-ru-salem! Doctor! didn't the old mar
spit, then? She fetched one splurge, and
both try pins come out, the back band
broke, the wheels whirled one way and
struck an old 'email's cake cart down
cum cake box, old 'oman and all; away I
went on tother track! down the hill went
the old mar as if the devil had kicked
her-in eend, right slam through the tables
whar the barbicue was set out, benches
broke, niggers rolled over everybody
hollerin as if heaven and yarth had cum
together!
Je-hos-a-phat didn't that old mar rar,
and didn't I? Thar, they laughing at me,
readv to split! The .old cake 'oman had
a fork sticking slam into my leg, and the
nvjold man Artur and the Gincral holding on.Jf5
.
riz looked around, hopped up, and strucK
mv heels together three times alore l cum
down, and swore if they d only give me
lalf a chance,, I could lick hull kit and
bilin of 'em, and d -'em, they mought
et that durned big gun kick me in the bar
gain.

The Ladies. It is diverting to see the
ladies triD to and from the post-office.
There is such a marked difference in meir
loos. Some return with smiles on their
cheeAs, and the blue wafered billet doux
in their hands. Others come bacA: vexed
and tiisap pointed, and seemed to say, 'well
he might write to me,' and others again,
simper and sniffle because the letter did
not happen to contain as many tender lines
as their amatory hunger called for.
LSAlad in Salem was as&ed a few days
since by his teacher, what . patrimony
meant: 'Something leu by a lather, was
the prompt reply. 'And what would you
call it if left by a mother?' Why,' an
swered the boy. 'matrimony of course.'
tSA letter from one of the crew of the
hart Carib, in California, says: There are
some gambling houses here, and you may
see gold in them piled up in heaps tico or
three fight high!'
dWhat maAres a young man and wo
men fall in love? Because one oi them
has a heart of steel and 'tother has a heart
of flint, and when they come together, they
they stride fire, and that is love.
Too Kind. An old servant, drinAring
to the health of his young mistress, who
was that day made a bride, said, I wish
her many happy returns of the day!'
