Annabel Lee.
> BY EDOAR A. FOE.
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the tea.
That a maiden there lived whom you may
know
By the name of Annabel Loo ;
And this maiden she lived with no other
thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
I was n child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sen;
But we loved with * love that was more
than love,
I and Annabel Lee;
With n love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.
Ami this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lcc;
So that her high-born kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre,
In this kingdom by the sea.
The nngcls, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me?
Yea!?that was the reason,(as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea,)
That the wind came out of the cloud at night
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
4 0
But nur love it was stronger by far than the
lovo
Of many far older than we?
Of many for wiser than we?
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
For the moon never beams without bringing
mo dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee ;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright
oyea
Of the beautiful Annabel I*ee ;
And ao, nil the night-tide, I lie down by the
side
Of my darling?my darling?my life and my
bride,
In the sepulchre there bv the sea.
In her tomb by the sounding sea.

They worship and cajole us
While maidens in our pride,
The surer to control us
When once the knot is tied.
Talk of a moon of honey,
Of roses and so forth!
Of making matrimony
A paradise on earth !
For such a mess of pottage
Her thraldom who would weave 1
For love within a cottage
A palace who could leave ?
I do not carc a copper
For sentiment and love;

For those who ape the dove.
But such a bird as I am,
Who roves as well as sings,
Has got (sometimes to try 'em)
A brilliant pair of wings.
Then I shall never marry
For money, love or ftm !

A little admiration,
A little liberty, - #

An Unrecorded Incident of the Be volution.
At this season of the year?the recurrence
of the auuiversnry of our national
Independence?our thoughts naturally
revert to the scenes and incidents of that
thne, when the souls of men wero tried,
There was, perhaps, no community more
sorely u tried," than that in the middle
part of Noith Carolina, in which Lord
Cornwall'* had his head quarters for some j
length of time; and ca the vicinage of
this great commander onoouraged to deeds
of sensual recklessness and cruelty, the
Tory part of the citizens, it also stimulated
to renewed1 ardor, and more faithful vigilance
the true and brave patriots of the
country. The congregations of Alamance
and lluflaloe, under the pastoral charge
of L>r. Caldwell, in Cuilford county, consisted
altogether of persons of the latter
class; ratio' them served without pay,
a# volunteers, in various parts of the
country, and all the men able to bear
arms, were at some time or other?in fact
xupstof the time?in service against the
T<v!m ftf ? -
uiiuiu, among tbeee men
wm Colonel Daniel Q v A tigw in
war, true, brave and severe; and at one
period be commanded, as Captain, a company
of his neighbors, who, with him,
had formed a voluntary petroU to wateh
and chastise the Tories is the surrounding
country . (
Once on s time, this company of gal- ,
lent and sedate gentlemen found than- ,
belves b the vicinity of a mill-pond, on ii
Deep River,somewhere near the Randolph ei
and Chatham lino; and as the day was tl
intensely hot, the neighborhood quiet, and q
the water inviting, Captain Q. and his men c<
bitched their horses on the margin of the p
pond, and preparod for a bathe. In the
meantime, the First Lieutenant, (a brother u
of the commander, equal in courage, but cl
more of a wag.) was sent with several ^
men to scout through the country, and ?
hunt forage for the horses ; and this pro- P
caution attended to, the major part of the c;
company, with their gallant leader, plunged
into tho water and began to enjoy
themselves hugely, and cut all sorts of
aquatic capers. In tho midst of their
pleasant sports, however, a pistol shot was
heard, and another and another, in quick r
succession; and in a moment after, there 0
were snouts ana screams, and then came u
galloping furiously back Lieutenant G. t
and his party, all in the wildest confusion, ^
and desperately spurring their horses.? f
Almost in a twinkling the bold Captain ?
was in his Middle; and following his ex- c
ample, some ran for their horses, while a
some struggled vainly to jerk on a shirt, [
or bundle up their unmentionables. There (
was no time, however, for etiquette, or attention
to dress; old Captain G., sword
in hand, scolded and belabored, and perhaps
swore a little, riding hither and thither,
and sometimes with the point of his
weapon hastening, in doublo quick time,
the mounting of his men. And.so at last
he had them on horseback, in battle order,
and thus arrayed, some with only a shirt
between them and the blazing sun, some
with pants and no shirt, and some with a
cap and pair of spurs, und some in a state
of primitive nudity, the bold Captain himself
in the latter predicament, with a face
stem as that of Mars, gave the word to
inarch, and off they went at a brisk cantor,
not an imj>osing array to look at, but a
desperate body to encounter. Just at this
moment the Lieutenant and his men,
burst into a wild peal of laughter; the
I joke was instantly apparent to all, but it
was near having a fatal termination. It
was well for the Lieutenant that he w as
111., n. . ? % . - - -- -
uie vaptain s urotticr ; and it was well for |
his party that ho had been at their head, j
Kven as it was, the laugh, for some time, ,
was all on one side, but after a while they ]
all gavo into the merriment; and so, what (
promised to be a bloody encounter, ended ,
in a gloriou s frolic. (
Those stem, bravo men would have g
their fun. Peace to their ashes, all, and
honor to their memory !?Iialeiyh Post.

From the Southern Cultivator.
Large Yield of Turnips.. ?
&
At your request, I herewith send you j
my mode of culture of the turnip.
I picked out n rich pice of bottom land (
that had not been cleared. The land was t
densely covered with trees, cane, briers,
?fec., dec. I put all hands to clearing it about
the 8th of August, 1851?not leaving
a tree or bush, and burning all the
wood and brush on the land. As soon as
I got about six acres cleared, I made
three of my strongest fellows, with three
mules and scooter plows, break un the
? a
land. A# soon as they wero through, I
made them turn across and break it up n
again?making other hands take out all h
the roots, stumps, Ac, that could be con- n
veniently got out. e
I then, on the 21st day of August, com- n
menc<xl sowing the turnips broad-ast, and o
plowiug them in shallow witli scooter f?
plows. The seed used on this ground u
was the 'seven top variety,' which wero h
given to me by a lady in the neighborhood, h
1 used a little over a quart of seed on tlie cj
six acres of land. 1 finished sowing and a
plowing in on the 23d day of August.
As soon as I finished, a storm of wind
and rain came and tbcr? was no more
train for about two months. o
ThA
._v ?.v|> mw mi suunuani one?the d
turnips large and smooth. I had up six- o
ty-lwo hogs to fatten for pork last Call. ?
I made a negro man drivs a wagon into b
the patch every day for two months or t)
more, and fiU the body with turnips,
and drivo them near the pen, where I had
a large boiler arranged for cooking, which d
was .kept constantly boiling. I used four n
bushels of meal to a wagon load of turnips, pi
adding one quart of salt to each boiler p
full?my hogs foiled finely on this feed, tc
Hud about three acres of turnips that
remained in the pateh all the winter en- ic
touched, and there was turnip grtmt e:
/'
aough to furnish the entire neighbjrfiood
le past spring. I havo saved an immense
uautity of the seed?more than 1 ever
anceived could be saved from a turnip
atch.
It is proper that I should add that I
Bed no manure on tho land, and did not
ultivate the turnips after they were sown.
Vith rich new land, and it put in in good
rdcr, with good seed, and they properly
ut in the land, I will ensure nn abundant
rop of turnips any year for mau and beast,
I am your obedient servant,

Information for Farmers.?In apiculture,
as in all other empl. yments, if
no would pursue it succesfully, wo should
mderstand it, or in other words, have a
borough knowledge of its theory. That
re may obtain that information, we should
urnisli ourselves with books of the best
iUthorn on that subject and at least, with
no periodical devoted to agriculture, and
tudy them attentively, and then we shall
>c prepared to perfect our knowledge by
experience. There are, at this enlightened
lay, strong prejudices against book-farning,
as it is termed. I pity the stupidly
of the man who thinks that if wo us*
xxtks, wo must shut our eves acrainst the
ight that is beaming upon us from al!
>ther sources. What is book-fanning!
!t is learning by means of books, new
acts, opinions, and tho result of experi
nciits, ami different modes of operation
ind we can use such parts of tlie infor
nation thus obtained as best suits oui
situations. If we would acquire the ap
pollution of a good farmer, and so pursue
he occupation as to make it pleasant am
profitable, we must study its theory unti
ive obtain a thorough knowledge of al
ta various branches. We must learn tin
lature and properties of soils, know theii
wants, and how to perpetuate their fertil
ty. The study of agriculture as a science
ind its pursuit as an enjoyment, I deen
admirably calculated to produce individ
nal happiness. It leads the mind awa>
from the turmoil ami bustle of many othe
pursuit*, and places a reliance on individ
nal exertions and the blessings of heaven
tn the lal>or of the field, under the blu<
'anopy above, when the breeze is pure am
refreshing, there is that freedom from tin
rares and perplexities of the world, that i)
teldom enjoyed in any other pursuit?

Facts About Milk.
Cream cannot rise through a great deptl

ctaiu its cream for a time, it shoul bo put
nto a deep narrow dish ; and if it be doired
to freo it most completely of cream
t should be poured into a broad flat dish
lot much excelling one inch in depth,
flie evolution of cream is facilitated by a
iso, and retarded by a depression of tern
>erature. At the usual temperaturo of
he dary, 00 degrees, Fahrenheit, all the
ream will probably rise in thirty-six
lours, but at 70 degrees, it will |>crliapf
iso in half that time; and when thu milk
s kept noar the freezing point, the cream
vill rise very slowly, because it become*
olidified. In wet and cold weather, the
nilk is less rich than in dry and warm

To-morrow ! 11
One day the minuter heard that hin
cighbor was sick, very sick. What, it
e dies in hia present state ? thought the
ninistor. He is an amiable man, a genrons
man ; in many points of character
moat excellent man; but, by hia own
oniession, he is no christian ; has never
sit the power of (tod's converting grace
pon his soul. Suppose he should die in
is present condition ! I must go and see
im. Accordingly, taking his hat and
ane, he called to see him. He knocked
t the door ; a servant opened it
? How is Mr. K.r
M Very sick, air; please to walk in."
The minister, led by tho servant, enteri
the chamber. Hie curtains were

"Very sick, sir," replied tho neighbor.
After a while the minister, in a subued
touc of voice, said, " Do you thi*tk{

" Oh, sir/* said the sick man, interruptig

44 Tv-morrowsaid the sick man.
The faithful man of God burst into tears,
and retired. The next day he called again.
The knocker was muffled?a bad sign;
knocking gently at the door, the servant
nnonivl i* "
" IIow is Mr. K .!"
44 No better sir, please to walk in."
The minister entered the chamber, and
there was his neighbor still upon a bed of
sickness.
44 My dear neighbor," said the minister,
" how do you do this morning ?" There
was no response. The man was delirious
now, and spoke in broken sentences,
incoherently. The minister, leaning upon
the top of his cane, looked at his ncighbor,
and the silent tear trickled down his
cheek, lie was about to rise up and go
, away, but the wife of the sick man exi
claimed,
I 4 Oh, my dear pastor, won't you pray
I for my husband ?"
The prayer was offered, and the minister,
taking the hand of his neighbor, said,
44 My dear friend, good-bye." Still there
- was no response. Alas! the sick man
s knew not that his wife was weeping at
! his bedside, and that his pastor had been
I praying for him. As the man of (Jod
' was retiring, the affectionate wife followed
r him to the door, and, in parting, said,
44My dear pastor, I am in great afiiic,
tion, will you not be so kind as to call
- again ?"
r 44 Madam," said he, 44 when do you
- think I had better call 1" And she said,
> 44 To-morrow."
1 Oh, that to-morrow, that tomorrow!
I Tlio .associations were more than he could
I bear, and tho man of God went weeping
3 all the way returning to his home. The
r next morning he called again. The
- knocker was still muffled, lie tapped
, gently at tho door. The servant opened it.
, "How is Mr. K.r
4* lie is said to be worse, sir."
j 44 I would like to see him."
r 44 You can't sir. The doctor has just
- left, and ho has given tho strictest orders
. that nobody should enter the room but
s those who are waiting upon him. llut

ing into tears, 44ho is worse; I fear much
worse."

madam, a few moments."
441 would l>e glad to have you see him,
too," replied the afflicted woman; but our
, physician says that tho crisis has come,
, and that tho slightest excitement may
I prove fatal; but the doctor said that if
his patient revived, ho might be able to
( sec you to-morrow."
, , Having received a message, nbout the
| going down of the sun, that his neighbor
i was still in a critical state, and too weak
to bo seen, the minister could scarcely
sleep tliat night, so anxious was lie ul>out
the salvation of his neighbor. The next
morning, taking his hat nud cane, he went
early, to make at least some inquiry.?
Tapping again gently at the door, the
servant opened it.
" llow is Mr. K. ?" was the anxious inquiry.
"Oh, sir," replied the servant, " he it

Dora's Baptism.
dy miis. clara J. iialk.
r We stood beside the clear waters of a mur
muring stream. The open sky was above
us. the broad, green fields around. Hundreds
were gathered about the water's
edge, and upon the low, rustic bridge
which the simple villager* h?d erected
above it. It was a glorious day in autumn
?a New England Autumn?when all
nature looks double beautiful. A stillness
was upon everything around. Not a breath
disturbed the deep repose. Presently a
young girl camo forth among that waiting
multitude. There she stood in almost
angelic purity, beside the man of Qod who
was to perform the oeremony of baptism.
Dora Nelson bad been my friend for
years; together we bad shared our childish
sports?together were merging into
womanhood. Beautiful she ever was, if
purity of soul and sweetness of expression
constitute beauty; but never had she
seemed half so lovely, even to me, as at
this movement I watched her aa preparations
were making for the ceremony,
she seemed almost too pure to be the centre
of thai gasing crowd. Instinctively I
turned away, fearing my looks was profanation.
Soon the voice of prayer arose
from the preacher. He spoke as he should
have spoken, touching! jr and feelingly.
He Aniseed; and taking the hand of the
young girl within his own, together they
decendcd into the waters.
A beautiful sight was that young maiden,
thus coming out from the world and
giving herself to God. Tho very act
seemed full of love, and purity, and holiness.
The spectators almost held their
breath in the very intensity of their gazing,
Then was heard aloud the voico of the
preacher, as ho pronounced distinctly,
'Dora Nelson, I baptize thee in the name
of the Father, and of the Son, and of the
Holy Ghost. Amen.' One sound upon
the waters, and all was over.
Then her sweet low voice broke forth
in song. Others joined her, 'till all hearts
seemed borne aloft, on music's wings, even

upward, almost expecting to see the
heaven open, and the Spirit of the Dove
descending to dwell upon that young
Christian. Forgive the thought if it wa*
irreverent; I could not help it. Nevei
had anything in my past life appeared tc
inc so purely solemn. It seemed, for the
time, as though Christ was in our very
midst?as though the age of miracles had
returned.
When the young girl came forth froir
the waters she was joyfully received by
her friends upon the shore. The sam<
calm, holy expression sat upon her fea
tares, only more calm, more holy still. ^
benediction was pronounced, and th<
people dispersed; but never while life re
mains, will the rcniemberancc of that seem
pass from my mind. It is graven there
as one of the sweetest, loveliest, picture:
upon which my eye 1ms ever rested.
I know not of Dora now. Time am
distance have separated us, probably for
ever. But many a time comes her pun
young face vividly l?efore me. Again '
hear her voice, again ace her buried witl
Christ in baptism. God grant that hei
early vows may have been kept pure ii
her heart from that time until now; ani
that thus they my be hereafter kept, til
she meets her God in Heaven.
