Drop the beamy harp ofiove,
Like young Korner, scorn the turtle
When the eagle screams above !

On the field of Mexico !
Dost thou pause 1 Let dotards dally !
Do thou for thy country fight,
'Neath her starry emblem rally,
God ! my Country, and her right!
Listen then! her trumpet's calling
On her sons to meet her foe !
Woman's heart is soft and tender,
But 'tis proud and faithful too?
Shall she be her land's defender ?
Lover, soldier, up and do !
Ilastc away, where men are falling,
On the fieltl^of Mexico !
Now our lov'd and trophied banner
Floats where Cortes' eagles flew?
Shall the hordes of Santa Anna
Stain its field of starry blue /
Listen then, thy country's calling
On her sons tp meet her foe!
Wreathes of fame, and smiles of beauty,
Will repay the warrior's deeds ;
Shall a quibble sully duty
When an outraged country pleads !
Haste, then haste ! where men arc falOn

Seize thy father's ancient falchion,
Which once flashed as battle's star?
When young Hope, the timid halcyon,
Fled our old ancestral war.
Listen now ! thy country's calling
On her sons to meet her foe !
Sweet is love in moonlight bowers,
Sweet the altar's sacred flame,
Sweet is Spring-time with her flowers,
Sweeter far the patriot's name !
Haste! thy brethren now are falling,

A FRAGMENT.
I saw saw her in the bloom .of youthful
beauty. The blush of modest/ was on her
cheek, and sensibility sparkled in her azure
eye. I will not attempt to 'delineate the
beauties of her person, much less to portray
the graces of her mind. Suffice it to
say, she was all that was good and Wely
in woman. Again I saw her. She stood
beside the altar, pale and lovely : her dew
lit eyo was raised to heaven, and her slight
^ ? frame trembled with emotion, as she took
jf. ' ' upon herself the holy vow of wedlock.?
- -,y Years passed on, and^again I beheld her,
she was bending over the coffined clay of a
lovely infant. A mother's anguish was
swelling her heart and heaving her bosom
with convulsive sobs, as she passed her lips,
for the last time, to the marble cheek of her
child. With a trembling hand she wiped
away the gathering tears from her eyes and
said, " Thy will, O God! be done ; what is
one ol tliy creatures that she should dare
, complain?" A more than mortal calmness
came over her. Shestood in the dignity ol
a superior being gazing on the dead form
of he?beautiful child. Again I saw her,
Slfe^tood beside the bier of him who hac
been her soother,.her counsellor?the biei
v' /, of her husband. He had been called in his
manhood's pride to lay down by his lifelesi
; r child, and she his beloved one, was left to
weep his premature death. It is true wher
sh& felt his last breath on her cheek, wher
4 she met his last look of love, she though)
Kfe a burthen! But heaven was her sup.
port?on that she leaned, and that soon
taught her to* be resigned to this last anc
greatest affliction. Calmly the bereaved
. that lovely mourner, took her last farewell
of him she had loved with the constancy o;
woman, and with a serene brow took the
f fatherless to her bosom. Once more I saw
^ her. Still fair was that lovely brow, ovei
which daTk hair parted in luxuriant bright
' iiess. But . all 1 how. St'rflnnrftlv rrf\A VirtHi

awfully still I She too, was dead \ She
too, had died in youth's bright hour ; Will
a tearless eye had elapsed her orphans to

Then, even then, her faith failed her not
even at that trying moment when deail
was busy at her heart, her iaith failed hei
^ not. She was a christian.

The Pindar or Ground Pea.?-A wri
ter in the Tallahassee Floridian urges th<
t:
extensive cultivation of this truly valuable I
plant upon Southern farmers, and broaches
a new project in the production of a valuable
oil from the nuts, lie speaks ol it as
follows:
To a few only it appears to bo known
that the product ol'this plant, the Pea, gives
out an oil in some respects unequalled as
an accompaniment to tho table?in its natural
state this oil has no rival. Clear and
mild with'a peculiar taste extremely gratifying
to the palate?rich and butterv it is
of that consistency so much admired in the
preparation of salads, anchovies, lor
table use.
Among plants the Pindar ranks deservedly
as one of the surest crops, not withholding
a generous yield even on poor ground,
and amply acknowledging the superiority
of rich land if light and friahlc. The Pea
is easily gathered, and with less labor than
any of the seeds or beans, is ready for the
Press. When hulled, which is most readily
ellected, and ground, the oil Hows most
freely, and uncommonly clean from the
press, but when submitted to the known
modes of clarifying oil, it becomes limpid
and pure, and when immediately bottled
and sealed, appears to remain in that state
of freshness and retaining the fine odor so
I hindikr rirrrnnnbli" fn fhi? nmntiinrs nf \r<?or>in_
I O J "O " *" *"W w ?v0wvv
| bleoils in the preparation of food. The refuse
alter expression is admirable for hogs,
and the vine lor stock, if not returned to
the soil in gathering the pea?if saved and
cured, which is affected with much ease, it
mixes in the cutting box well with the rye,
barley, oats and rice. The product of the
fodder is estimated at more than a ton to
the acre; and of peas, when cultivated alone
and well fifty to seventy-live bushels. The
plant is cultivated much north of us but
from fair trial, it is found that like other producing
plants, it delights in the rays of a
warm southern sun and soil, and that the
product is richer with a finer draoma than
; the oil from the same plant produced in Virginia
and the Carolinas. I have no hesitation
in stating that if this oil was fairly
introduced into the northern states, it would
lake a high rank at the table of the bonvivants.
This oil is more readilv and with
less labor and expense, procured from the
pea than it is from any other seed, bean or
pea we know of It is hulled and ground
by simple machinery and the press required
tor the extraction of the oil is neither very
powerful nor expensive. The production
of this oil for commerce challenges an early
attention of planters, and small as large caI
pitalists. Any quantity could be produced
j and prepared for market, a great part of the
labor being of that kind that would suit all;
the child, old age, and the cripple?all
might be employed in the production of this
new material. I feel confident that after
a little use it would become a successful rival
of the best table oil of Europe.
Tiik Cotton Worm.?Great anxiety
and alarm having been felt among the planters
of Concordia and a neighbouring reginns
11*1 ivlr:ir/l Intlir* :innonvnnpo .-?P tlm nr\t
ton worm, induced Professor Forshey to
make a hasty excursion to several plantations,
for the purpose of inspecting the destroyer,
and verifying"his identity with the
noctua gossyppii. The result of this investigatigation
is published in the Concordia Intelligencer,
and he confidently expresses
the opinion, " that the worm now feeding
upon the Cotton leaf in the vicinity ofVidalia
is not the noctua gossyppii?is not the
same which destroyed the crop of 184G.
He described several points of difference,
and adds: "the present-worm is not only
the same worm, but, to my eye, is not much
like it."
He also says: "I have been reminded
by those who 'think different, tliat this may
prove just as^destructive as the noctua gossyppii
to the cotton plant. I have to reply
. that I can give no assurance to the contrary.
t But if my opinion be sought, it is decidedly
in the negative. True, it is possible, a new
enemy to the plant may be introduced, but
it is not likel}r. The ncgoss has been known
, for fifty years, at least, the only great dc
troyer of the plant, and I think ii prubale
that the same will continue to be the case
at irregular intervals, so long as the plant
i shall continue to grow."
In noticing the subject, the Editor of the
i Intelligencer remarks :
f " The article by Professor Forshev, in
i this number, will draw attention. We
, deem it due to those who have not the same
I opportunity to examine the subjefct, to say
that we differ from him. The worm now
