AN AMERICAN FOREST SPRING.
BY •LFRID B. STREET.
Now fluttering bree'ze—now stormy blast,
Mid rain, then blustering snow,—
Winter's stern fettering cold is passed,
But, sweet Spring, where art thou?
The white cloud floats 'mid smiling blue.
The broad bright sunshine'sgolden hue
Bathes the still frozen earth;
'Tis changed I—above, black vapors roll,—
We turn from our expected stroll,
And seek the blazing health.
Hark—that sweet carol! with delight
We leave the stifling room,—
The little blue-bird meets our sight,—
Spring, glorious Spring has come t
The south-wind's balm is in the air,
Where its long rings uncurl the fern,
The violet, nestlimg low,
Casts back the white lid of its urn,
Its purple streaks to show.
Beautiful blossom I first to rise
And smile beneath Spring's wakening skies,
The courier of the band
Of blooming flowers,—what feelings sweet
Gush as the silvery gem we meet
Upon its slender wand!
Warmer is each successive sky,
More soft the breezes pass ; -
The maple's gems of crimson lie
Upon the thick green grass.
The dogwood sheds its clusters white.
The melting snow.wreaths everywhere
Are leaping off in showers;
And Nature, in her brightening looks,
Tells that her flowers and leaves and brooks
And birds will soon be ours.
A few soft sunny days have shone,
The sir has lost its chill;
A bright green tinge succeeds the brown
Upon the southern hill.
Off to the woods—a pleasant scene;
Here sprouts the fresh young wintergreen,
There swells a mossy mound;
Though in the hollow, drifts are piled,
The wandering wind is sweet and mild,
And buds are bursting round.
The birch has dropped its tassels slight,
Cowslips are round the rill;
The thresher whistles in the glen,
Flutters around the warbling wren,
And swamps have voices shrill.
A simultaneous burst of leaves
Has clothed the forest now;
A single day's Imight sunshine weaves
This vivid, gorgeous show.
Masses of shade are cast beneath,
The flowers are spread in varied wreath,
Night brings its soft, sweet moon;
Morn wakes in mist, and twilight gray
Weeps its bright due, and smiling May
Melts into blooming June I
WHEN TO WEAR INDIA RuasEns.—We
have noticed, says the Scientific Ameri
can, “that many persons wear India Rub
ber over-shoes in dry weather to keep'
their feet warm. This is an injurious and
ovil practice. India Rubber shoes are
very comfortable and valuable for covering
the feet in wet sloppy weather, but they
should never be worn on any other occa
sion, their sole use should be to keep out
water. They should, therefore, be put of
whenever the wearer enters the house, and
be worn as little as possible, because they
are air-tight, and retain the perspira
tion of the feet. The air cannot be ex
cluded from them, or from any portion of
the body, for any length of time, without
sensibly affecting the health. It is our
opinion that no habit tends more to good
health than clean feet and dry stockings,
so as to allow a free perspiration of the
nether extremities."
THE MILITARY ON Tile remar
kable feature of the celebration of the 22d
February, in Philadelphia, was the cros
sing of the Delaware by the , Minute Men,'
Ca?tain Berry. Preceded by the Penn.
sylvania Cornet Band, the Company got l i
on the ice at Poplar street wharf, and
marched in regular order across to the
New Jersey shore, the Band at the same
time playing the national airs. On the
return, the ice exhibited weakness, and by
the time the company reached the wharf,
they stood over ahoe•topa in water. An
immense crowd witnessed the crossing and
the spectacle called up the memories of
the winter of '75, when American troops,
wearing the same uniform, wero often to
be seen upon the Delaware.
FaNces—Bainas, &c.--See that all your
fences are forthwith put in a state of com
plete repair; see to this duty yourself.
While superintending your entire lines
of fencing have every briar, bramble and
bush growing along them cut down or up
rooted; have them placed in piles, and
when dry enough have them burnt. If
however, you have any gullies on your
place, it would be well to have them thrown
therein, serve as barriers against the fur
ther washings of the rains.
FOR KICKING Cows.---Take a short
strap and fasten the ends together. Next
prepare a pin of some soft wood, about S
or 8 inches long and 14 inches in diame
ter. Take the cow by the off fore leg,
and double it at the knee joint close ; pens
the strap or loop over the knee, pressing
it back until you can insert the pain be
tween that and the knee joint, and she
cannot kick. So rays J. B. T., in the
Rural New Yorker.
A CAVE IN BLAIR Couarr.—The Holliday.
burg Standard statee that recently Vaj. B. F.
Bell, of Antis township, in order to facilitate the
operation of getting limestone to ha; kiln, loco•
ted at the foot of the knob, opposite his rest.
dence, made an opening near the apex of the
knob, so as to be enabled to slide the stones to
the top of the kiln. The workmen had nut ex•
coveted to any great depth before they made an
opening into a cave. Some little exploration
was made directly after the opening, but not
sufficient to determine the extent. One room
was found near the opening, which was found
to contain a large number of grotesque figures
and pendants of stalactite from the dome of the
cavern. It is the intention of the Major, as
soon Le opportunity offer., tothave this natural
curiosity thoroughly explored.
