On the Death of Edgar A. Poc.
Th ey have Iain thee down lo slumber, wheie
the sorrows that encumber.
Such a wild and wayward heart as thine can
never reach thee more;
For the radiant light ol gladness, never alter-
nates with sadness,
Stinging gifted souls to madness on that bright
and blessed shore;
Safely moored from sorrow's tempest, on th e
distant Aidenn" shore,
Rest thee, lost one, evermore.
Thou wert like a meteor glancing, through a
starry sky entrancing,
Thrilling, awing, wrapt beholders with the
wondrous light it wore;
But the meteor has descended, and the Night
ly" chadows blended,
For the fever-dream is ended, and the fe arful
crisis o'er
Yes, the wild unresisting fever-dream of hu
man life is o'er,
Thou art sleeping evermoro.
Ocean, earth and air could utter, words that
made thy spirit flutter
Words that stirred the hidden fountain welling
in thy bosom's core,
Stirred it till its wavelets sighing, wik encd to
a wild replying, !
And in numbers never dying, sung the heart's
unwritten lore,
Sung, in wild bewitching numbers, thy sad
heart's unwritten lore,
Now, unwritten, nevermore.
There was something sad and lonoly, iu thy
mystic songs that only
Could have trembled from a spirit weary of
the lifo it bore
Soniclhin g like the plaintive toning of a hidden
streamlet moaning,
In its prisoned darkness moaning (or the light
it knew before
Fur the fragrance and tho sunlight that had
gladdened it before,
Sighing, sighing evermore.
To thy ssul forever dreaming, came a strange
effulgence beaming,
Beaming, flashing from a region mortals never
may explore;
Spirits led thee in thy trancc3, through a
realm of gloomy fancies,
diving spectres lo thy glances man had never
seen before
Wondrous spectres, such as human eye had
never seen before,
Were around thee evermore .
Thou didst see the starlight quive r over many
a fabled river
Thou didst wander with tho shadows of the
mighty dead of yore
And thy songs to us came ringing like the wild
unearthly singing,
Of the viewless spirits winging o'er "the
night's Plutonian shoro,"
Of the weary spirits wandering by the gloomy
Slygian shore,
Singing dirges evermore.
Thou didst seem like one benighted, one whose
hopes weie crushed and blighted
Mourning for tho lost and lovely that the
world could not restore
But an endless rest is given to thy heart so
wrecked and riven,
Thou hast met again in heaven with the "lost"
and loved "Lonore,"
Willi the "rare and radiant maiden whom the
angels call Lonore,"
Siic will leave thco nevermore.
From the earth a star bus faded, and the shrine
of 6ong is shaded,
And the muses veil their
rowful and sore
faces, weeping sor
But tho harp all rent and broken, left us many
a thrilling token;
v e Hiall near lis numbers spoken, and re
peated o'er and o'er,
Till our hearts shall cease to tremble, we s-hal!
hear them sounding o'er.
Sounding ever, evermore
We fchall hear them like a fountain tinkling
down a rugged mountain
1 .1
i.ikc me waning ot the tempcstniingling with
the ocean's roar;
Like the winds of autumn sighing, when the
summer flowers are dying;
Like a spirit voice replying, from a dim and
distant fchorc;
Like a wild, mysterious echo, from a distan t
shadowy shore.
We shall hear them evermore.
Never nioro wilt thou undaunted, wander
through "the Palace haunted,"
Or the "cypress vales Titanic" which thy spi-
rit did explore
Never hear the "Ghoul" king dwelling in the
ancient steeple telling,
With a slow and solemn knelling, losses hu-
man hearts deplore
Telling "in a sort of Runic ihymc," the losses
wo deplore,
Tolling, tolling evermoro.
Ifu "living human being," ever had the cifi
of seeing," fc
The "grim and ghastly "countenance his "evil"
Genius wore
It wan thco, "unhappy master , whom unmerci
ful Disader
Followed fast and followed faster, till" thy
"gapno burden bore
Jill tho dirge of thy "hope one melancholy
uuioen bore,
Of never navcrinorc."

Rearing Cattle.
With many farmers the soul engrossing
subject of their mind appears to be, how
to raise grain; while the lull as profitable,
nd less laborious practice of raising
cattle, appears to be to a great extent over
looked. The first object which should demand
the attention of every fanner, is the pro
portion of stock necessary to consume the
feed which is produced from his farm.
If he buys more stock than he can keep,
he will be obliged to re-sell them while
thin, and at a great disadvantage: While if
not a sufficient number be kept, his grass
will run to waste, and he will thus incur a
oss of profit.
Some attention should be paid when
purchasing cattle, to the manure, fertility
and situation of his farm, also to the de
sign for which he rears them, whether for
milk or beef. In purchasing cattle, wheth
er in a lean or fat state, they should on no
account be taken from a farm which ex
ceeds his own in fertility; otherwise he
must sustain a material loss by their not
thriving, especiallv it old. Y hen practi
cable, cattle should be bought in the neigh
borhood, or from land of the same or infe
rior quality to his own. Neither should
they be taken from a place abounding in
pure water and transferred to one where
ittle or none can be procured. Wildness
of disposition, without being deficient in
spirit, is of great consequence; unruly cat
tle, independent of the trouble of fencing
against them, and the crops destroyed by
depredations, require much more to keep
them than those of a more gentle- disposi
tion. A cow for milk should have a small
head, a broad smooth forehead, black eyes
smooth elastic skin, white udders, not
fleshy, but thin and loose when empty, (to
contain the larger- quantity of milk,) but
large, when full. The shoulders should
not only be light of bone and rounded off
at the lower parts, but also bioad and well
covered with flesh. The back should be
wide and level throughout. In selecting
for beef, those should be chosen which
weigh most in the valuable parts, and less
in the least, such as the head, bones, &c.
The body should be as compact as possi
ble, while the breadth and depth of the
carcass should be large, in proportion to
their Height. 1 lie age ol cattle should be
ascertained. They shed no teeth till two
years old, when they get two new ones;
at three they get two more, and so on un
til five years old, when they have all new
teeth, though the two corner teeth arc not
fully until they are six. The horns of
cattle at three years old are smooth and
handsome, after which period there ap
pears a circle or wrinkle each year as
long as the horn lasts. These piVHps
must not be confounded with riglets which
are sometimes found at the root of the
horn, which are pretty sure indications
that the animal has been poorly feed du
ring its growth.
dn Awkward Mistake.
A farmer who had bought a calf from
a butcher, desired him to drive it to his
farm, and place it in his stable, which he
accordingly did. Now, it happened, that
very day, that a grinding organ and dan
cing bear, passing by that way, began their
antics in front of the farm. After amusing
the farmer for some time, the organ man
entered the farm house and asked the far
mer if the could give him a night's lodg
ing. The farmer replied, he couid give the
man lodging, but that he was at a loss to
know where to put the bear. Af.Jiv mu
sing a little, he determined to bring the calf
into the house for that night, and place the
bear in the stable, which was done. Now ,
the butcher, expecting lhe calf would re
main in the stable all night, resolved to
steal it ere momig; and the farmer and his
guest were in the night awakened by a
fearful yelling from the out building.
Both got up and taking lantern entered the
stable, when the farmer found, to his sur
prise, the butcher of whom he had bought
the calf, in the embrace of the bear, who
was hugging him tremendously, but could
not bite being muzzled. The farmer im
mediately understood the state of the case
and briefly mentioned the circumstances
to the owner of Bruin, who, to punish the
butcher for his intended theft, called out to
the bear, 4hug him, Tommy;' and hug him
Tommy did in real earnest, the butcher
roaring most piteously all the time. After
they thought he had "suffered enough they
set him free, and the butcher slunk oil",
glad to escape with his life, while the far
mer and his guest returned to their beds.
W'c picked up a good anecdote the other
day, of an old Methodist preacher, who
rode a circuit a few years ago. While go
ing to one of his appointments, he met an
old acquaintance, who was one of the mag
istrates of the county. He asked the min
ister why lie did'nt do as the Saviour did
ride an ass. 'Because' said the divine,
'the people have taken them all to make
magistrates of.'
Somebody says: The law business will
soon he worthless as a profession. Al
ready two are starved where one subsists,
and yet parents still continue to compel
their talented sons, who might be honora
bly employed in sawing wood, to study
Ulackstoiic.
