am i i Building on tho Sand. BY KLIiA COOA. Tis well to woe, 'tis good to wed, For so the world hss done Since myrtles grew, and roses blew, And morning brought the sun. But have a care, ye young and fair? Be sure yo pledge with truth? Bo certain that your love will wear Beyond the days of youth; For. if ye give not heart for heart, As well as hand fo&Utad, You'll find you've pla^d the 'unwise' part, And " built upon the sand." 'Tis well to save, 'tis well to have A goodly store of gold, And hold enough of the shining stuff? For charity is cold. But place not all your hopes Rud trust In what the deep mine brings ; We cannot live on yellow dust Unmixed with purer things. . And ho who piles up wealth alone, Will often have to stand Beside his coffer chest, and own 'Tis " built upon the sand." Tis good to speak in kindly guise, And soothe where'er we can ; Fair speech should bind the human mind, . And love link man to man. * But stay not at the gentle words, Let deeds with language dwell; Tho one who pities starving birds Should scatter crumbs as well. The mercy that is warm and truo Must lend a helping hand, For those who talk, yet fail to do. But '"build upon thertbnd.''

Covered Drains. i i At your request I shall endeavor to report. . in the following article, concisely and precisely the method of constructing the "cov- , ered drains," which I had executed during ^ the past winter on my plantation. I had ( between a thousand and fifteen hundred j yards constructed, varying ftom three and a , half to seven, and in some instances eight feet deep. The average deptlj of Jhcm was about: five feet?this depth heij^considaMd necessary to etfeet thorough drainageinM. ry instance, where the quantity of land requiring it, is of any consequence. They were from twenty-four to thirty inches wide at top, and twelve inches at bottom. The width at top should be as little as will afford room enough for the movements of the ditcher when at bottom, says Mr. Ru(fin,and I found his views in this matter, as in others^ sensible and worthy of adoption. The drains were laid off straight, and when it was necessary to change their direction, it was done at angles?which facilitates the regular laying of the materials used for fill ing them. A fall of one inch in twelve feet wan allowed In grading the bottoms of the drainn, which I deem sufficient lo enable wntev to freely escape, and carry off any particle* of dirt that may be washed down from above. The material* nsed for filling the drains consisted of green pine poles and green pine brush. - The poles varied from throe to five ' inches in diameter?it being difficult to procure them of inferior size. Attention wan paid, however, while laying them down, to selecting those of the same size, and laying thenmide by side. Two were laid on the bottom and one on top of them?the space between them and the sides of tMbrains being filled with chunks and limtS^wTfees, In order to prevent Uie bottom piles separating and permitting the top one to slip between them. A very little separation is aof. ficicnt to allow the water to escape freely. At ahefi anglo of the draine *ho poles were 1 eat off even with the angle, so as to join well with those of the aoeseeding conrve r ik- IL. st.ta tid ??*- ? * - - vn um jhjivo jjrrrn puifi oniin wniim MXntf ! twelve or fifteen inches thick, and when the depth of the drain wm m greet ea eeven or tvo foot thick, ae sufficient depth of earth would ettll iy preaerred fht the purpose of cultivation.

After this was done the top sides of the drains were sloped off about six or eight inches?the slops extending ten or twelve inches below. The remainder of excavated earth was then thrown in, which filled drains and raised them four or six inches above the Mnrrouading land, which latter wus done for the purpose of allowing fbr settling, and preventing water standing on them after heavy rains.? My object for sloping the top sides was as follows: The earth used for tilling any ditch will, arts'* drying and settling, leave the sides *u.. ?J J ?- * v? uiv uncii, uiiu prouuce cracKS lino Wliicn rain-water will penetrate, and be apt to choke the conduit below with any loose dirt it may carry with it- B? giving the s'opc, the earth, as it shrinks, settles down upon, and adheres closely to the sides. The time occupied in procuring materials for tilling the drains, and the digging them, cannot be ! accurately stated, as it wus done by piecemeal. If poles and brush are close at hand, ! the work can be carried on rapidly after the j drains are dug. I have considerable ditch. , ; ing yet to do, nud I shall try in some portion j of it, green pine rails, which I imagine will prove equally durable, with the advantage of lying more steady, and being more nearly of uniform size. On these I shall pat green pine slabs, one foot long, and one or two inches thick, orosswise?and fill with brush as before. Covered drains should be constructed with great caution to render them eiTuetual, otherwise time and labor are unprofitably employed. If properly done, they will amply repay the cost, as I can testify, so far as my work hns been tested?the cotton now growing on the land being vigorous and healthy, and the land thoroughly relieved of superabundant moisture. I was detained at mum; vviuie me worK was progressing, *nnd visited my plantation bnt oneo only during ' that time. I instructed my overseer n? to the "modus operandi" who, judging from the effect produced, executed the trust faithfully and creditably. The opportunity presented almost induces IT? descant upon the subject of draining generally; but I forbear, as long articles forbid their being read, and as 1 am aware that the opinions and suggestions of j-oung planters fail to carry with them the ; weight, and exert the influence, which those \ of more practical and experienced men do. j Want of thorough drainage is a radical de- j feet in Southern ngriculture, and it must be extensively performed befbre our ricb and extensive river and creek flats ean be profitably and successfully tilled. Health is pro- ' raoted by it?the temperature of the soil is i changed?jfkproducts increased, and its till- i ago ^rendered less laborious. I will naa, in < relation to using green pine polos for cover- , od drains, that Mr. Ruflin, whoso experience in their use extends beyond that of any ( farmer or planter in the South, says he had occasfbn to take up the poles in one of his drains after they hod been there five years, and they were perfectly sound. If sound at 1 the expiration of that time, I lee no reason .why they will not last for fifty years. We j all know they decay rapidly under ordinnry circumstences?but when cut green, the tur- ] pontine in them, after exuding tt -hoit time, , becomes hardened, seals the pores and pre- , vents the absorption of waMrto the extent that would occur with seasoned materials. ' This, in connection with their beinir constantly wet when buriod, and not sufljectcd ' Lo alternate moisture and dryness, renders { them durable. Similar reasons might apply <1 to other green materials. Winter, 1 think, is t the pro]>er season for ditching, aa the earth is full of water, and temporary sources aie nhsorbed. But, as some locations are too ' ti wet to operata on in inclement weather, it is ^ proper to mark them out and stake tho 1 ?aursc of the drains, and perform tho work 1 in summer, after the crop is laid by, ocfti < autumn, which I think pwfrr$ble.?

At his .t- ?t ?' !-v iitAil jr ICUCIIII^ ?t (jU.llllllJ Ul tlfillll WHICH ' h:nl obstinately refused to beoome butter under any reasonable or even unreasonably amonnt of " agitation " in the usual mode, wus at length emptied into a clean "salt bag" of ooa'rse linen and deposited in the ground at a depth of about twelve inches below the surface, to eooL , (te tiro following morning it was found that the buttermilk had entirely separated and disappeared, and the butter remained in the bag perfectly nice and swooL He has since frequently manufactured i bitter by this method with invariable success, in from ski to twelve hours.
