Truly the prophetic eye of the bard could

Peyond the set olumbia's light
Like a ,hrigh ar is beaming,
And merry Englind's slumbering night
Is waking from i its dreaming ;
And Erid,s harp no more shall moan,
Repeal is now to handy ;
And Scotia's bagipe yet shall drone •
" Yankee Dood,le dandy."
And sunny Franci, in her green bowers,
The home of 10've and glory—
Her sword all gailanded with flowers—
That bloom m.'fleathless stcry
Iler purple hills -0f clustering vine.
And champaignes sweet and sandy—
The rose and lily ; shall combine •
With " Yankee Doodle dandy."
And Germany, tlie land of lore,
Her smothered.fires are burning,
And richer gifts ;she has in store
Than all her tnatchless learning ;
Some Korncr'ste and battle sword,'
Some Luther's voice of thunder,
Shall torch her tieart's most thrilling chord,
. And snap her tehoins asunder.

came, with evident:confusion on her connte
nance, tend when asked what was the matter,
she replied,—" I believe ''T. am married, 'and
here is a paper the minister gave me," Rniling
out her certfficate, which the merchant imme
diately recognized to be genuine, and much to
his surprise, also recognized that Mary's hus
band was a wealthy merchant of New Orleans
Whom be knew, and with whom be had had
large mercantile transactions.
After the risnal bestowment of wishes of hap
piness, and the interchange of affectionate a
dieus, Mary and her wealthy husband set out
for New Orleans and arrived there after a short
and pleasant passage. There she was ushered
into :a large house 'elegantly furnished, as mis
tress; and there she enjoyed all, 'the comforts
aneabutriance that this life can afford. Her
husband (bated upon her, and immediately 1
emplOyed a number of teachers to instruct luir
in music, and all-the several branches of useful
and ornamental learning; and by letters re
ceived in this city from New Orleans a few
daysr.sinee, 'care informed that Mary was in
the enjoyment of fine health and spirits, and
one ef the happiest of the happy. Such is the
true history of a successful, although romantic
courtship on the Battery, which has resulted

Brown flung up to me of Sally Barn's quilting,
'the jade; I've never liked her since. We was:
all talking about annextiticui, and Parson Smith
said he expected it would bring about a war,,
and, said r,. ale villain, if ho does bring .about
a war he ought to be bung. then Nance bri
dled ut) and says she, :Mrs. Tompkins, if you
di'ait 4ke the way Tyl4's „a diiing, you whigs
hadn't ought to elect 1 , 14, that's all I ' ve got to'
say. I gin her such a; look ; but she didn't
'mind it, for she know'd, I couldn't help myself.'loh, dear ! I know it's o use fora woman tog
say anything when a in his head sot
but it does make me $1 so orful, to think what
you used to be—bat as Parson Smith says,l
there is nothing on tho face of the aith but
what will change. 1N"../iy Tompkins, when wq
was first married, you' Was so leader hearted
you couldn't see me bled, and now your talkin4
about voting for Taylor, the very man whet
recommend:tithe Cabs bloodhounds to be so
on the Florida injins, poor critters. You don.'
believe a word of it ! Why, Tompkins, you
,' deny your own name afore long, at this rate:
'Didn't I hear you read it out of the ' Chronicle,
as good a whip paper you said as ever was
printed ? And didn't the editor say that such
a man au Taylor wasn't fit for the. duties and
'responsibilities of the commander-in-chief of an
army ? 'But la me ! that was afore they' thrill
of putting up Taylor; for President; they,'l)
hush it nll up now I dare say. But if I &Judd!
live.to be a hundred years ell I shouldn't, furh
get them words—they went right into my
heart, for thinks L if them poor Mexicans, has
(got this blood-thirsty wretch among 'etd, ,
they're a gone case, and pSaid as much to yen
i at the time—for I knew you Said it would takb
g e t such a man to carry on a war against ap
innecent and unoffending people like the mexi
cans. I'm a thoughtless foolish woman !-1-
, Yes, I know some people say: that women ne
er think, but I gist wish that some men that
as much as some women, if they did thqy
1 wouldn't change so oftien. But good sakes, ;I
OA believe bill Jenkini was half right whiin
he said the whip party'was like a flea; p §

ino. didn't I hear you read T,aylor's letter toth
-1 erd.ay, where he said ' himself that he didi't
want to be president at all, and thinks I that's
right; every one to his ovm,trade if it is fight
ing. Taylor only wanted td be coaxed a little!
I Well he might a stayed waning till dooms-day,
if N a bin the Whig party,,afore I'd a coaxed
him, the old' rarmint. Why,'didn't I hear Am

Now Tompkins, I do hate sick getting round
the bash as this. Why didn't he gist comej
out-in the first place, _
and say, I'm a whig , .; I
I go for a United States Bank, and all the wig
measures. By keeping a little dark about his
politics he expects to git some Joky votes! Oh,
'that is it, well now, Tompkins I always did

TEE FARMER'S COMM
Molt FARMINCL—A . corre4orident -of the'
'Frei* Farmer, fornislins an ar,tiale bf conflict
arable length, in quite a seientifie sh - o*
the influence of the 'mom on veg,etatlon, and as
a consequence, the importance Of aowingilte!4s
at - be light time of the moon.l )3elieving in
dustry, energy and good culti+tation to be the
main causes of success; and notilosing . the beret
days of the season in waiting the right tittle
'of the moon, we shall attempt tO Wei thafalee
reasoning of this writer.
'He commences by speaking of thei effeets iOf
,light on vegotaticifunationofAe leaves+-
importance ofslight--decompositioo of cartionlo
acid—oxygen and carbon—assbnilation of - ea-
bon—reflection of green :rays—inYsteries of un
hire—respiration— agrieultumf, 4eWnce, '
aria 'concludes that as light is tinfibitant to the
grO t itrth uf plants, it is very limper that' thiy
should commence vegetation at:a time When
they can receive'all the light pOssible; that Is,
In 'addition to sunlight diming the 'day, th 4
shoUld have the benefit of diooniightduring the
night. Now it has been denionstrated that
the light received from the snn,ibiceeds tlf , at
received from the moon, as Mere than a him
drcd thousand to one. If, therefore, a furrier
can find out just bow much his iyOung crop
grow in one day of sunlight, bet Will know abdfit
haw much it will grow~in a bitndred thousand
days of moonlight, or about; thre l u hundrnd
years, supposing his crop to.geeiar!hy moonliit
every night the year round. And if a Inindid
days - of sunlight are 'required perfect is
crop, then it would require only about thitty
thousand years of moonlight lb6foie his crop
Would be fit for harvesting. - Whether this
would overbalance the loss bt a; Week of flne
Weather in spring while waiting finr the right
time of the' moon, we must ; lealri! the e.inOid
and intelligent farmer to decide.! A friend;at
our elbow suggests that Adam's, 'crop 61 e4b-
Lagos could not have advanced ; , e'ty• far towards
maturity up to this present tinie.--:Cuttifa

TO' KEEP BHP§ FROM ..F1R1117.51.-I—Tho!ol
lowing plan, which I discovered by occidentis,
I think, efficacious. One oflmy,servants li4iv
ing by chance broken a looking lass, it °Oar
ed to me that the broken pieceslsaspendect by
a string, so as to turn freelyin ovirry direction
would give the appearance of nonietbing moiTin„
about, Which would alarm :the,. birds. Vac
eordingly tried the plan, an find.that no bird,
not even the most fool-hardy of them, (a iies ,
of newly-fledged sparrows,) dare aortic. neat.
They had attacked My peat. , :On susp4nd
bag a few bits of the lookingiglasi amok=
them, the marauders left the Place, I: The tiem
tits-attacked • iny—seckl ..PeUrni*which:ithe
seemed very partial to;)' a it of looking 81,
suspended in front of the tree:l-put a stdp t ,
the mischief. My grapes weru next nine.
damaged, before they were ripe, by thruiihe
and starlings; a piece of looking-glass di.ov ,
these away, and not a grape , wasi touched after,
wards. I have befOre tried many plans, Abu
never found any so effective as tbe. above.
PLOWING WELL.—No farmer we think,ivrh
has over remarked the inefficiouly of the t c
and cover" mode of plowiag,--that is, tryin
Ito throw over a slice of earth twiee as wide a
Ithe plow will perform,--will prefer; it to t, i
finitely- superior mode of drawing deep, stralgh
and narrow furrows, t'ltlis not i to pleasu
eye'only," says a late, practical Nyriter,
the plowmen of Westmorlaud, Opiaberlandi an
other well cultivated counties of k;ngland,:it ,
so much pains R i 3 drawing i their deep furtow:
as straight as a line can make "them, endlla
kg them so compact,,than no evince be we
them can bn found in fields Ofimany.,cre
but to favor a perfectly' even, and nifo
covering of the seed sowu upOu'ithe grolnd.
We would recommend to tlie,l farmer
reads this, to plow the next acre ,with perfue
straight furrows only six:inches wide; 4d it
after Viewing its superiority, lie,then goesa
to foot-wide slices, Ave shall be Vet-yr
taken.—Cultivator• ' •
