TO E-,
The voice of the robin that sings
In the grove so sweetly, has flown;
No longer around thee it flings,
Its music by zephyrs once blown.
Yet come! gentle robin again,
And rouse the old oak by thy strains,
Nor tune the sweet mathi in vain,
For Heav'n shall feed thee with grains.
My eyes shall gently scan each limb,
Of that old oaken tree to find;
Perchance, to get a glimpse of him,
The sweetest songster of his kind.
Vet strike! those tuneful chords once more,
And break this silly silence now,
My ear and heart will both adore,
And pay, with thee, kind fHcav'n, a vow.
So sweetly stealing otn my ear,
Thy magic music soothes my heart,
And bids my passions all to hear,
. And wish to act a nobler part.
Hark! soul! and ear! and all imy powers!
My robin, robin sings once more;
In early dew and inorhing showers
May he continue ever more.

A LAY OF REAL LIFE.
Some are born with a wooden spoon in their
mouth. and some with a golden ladle.-God
smith.
Sonic are born with tin rings in their noses,
atid some with silver ones.-Silversmith.
Who ruined me e'er I was born,
Sold every acre, grass or corn,
And left the next heir all forlorn?
My Grandfather.
Who said my mother was no nurse.
And physicked me, and made ine worse,
Till infaucy became a curse?
My Grandmother.
Who left me in my seventh year,
A comfort to my mother dear,
And Mr. Pope, the overseer?
My Father.
Who let me starve to bny her gin,
Till all my bonescame through my skin;
Then called me "ugly little sin?"
My Mother.
Who said my mother was a Turk,
And took me home and made me work,
And managed half my meals to shirk?
My Aunt.
Who "of all earthy things" would boast,
He "hated others brats the most,"
And therefore made me feel ny post?
My Uncle.
Who got in scrapes. ran endless score,
And always laid thtem at my~ door,
Till many a bitter panag I bore?
My Cousin.
Whlo took me home when mother died?
-Again with f'ather to reside,
Black shaoes,clean knives. runa far and wide'?
My Steptmother.
Whto marred my stealthy urchin joys,
And when I played. cried. "what a noise,"''
Girls always hector over boys?
My Sister.
Who need to share in whtat was mine, 1
Or took it all did he. incline,
'Cause I w~as eight atnd lie was nine?
My Brother.
WVho stroked my head and said "good lad,"
And gave ame sixpence, "all lhe had,"
And at the stall the coin was bad?
My Godfather.
Who grat;s shared my social glass,
But when misfortune came to pass,
Referred me -to the pumop? Alas!
My Friend. 1
Through all this wearv world. in brief,
Whoever sympathised with irnief,
.Or shared my joy, my sole relief!?

FARMERS' HYMN,
God of the hills and verdant plains,
I bless thy ruling hand
For drifting snows and drivirig rains -1
Are sent by thy conimand.
The openinig spring is decked by thee,
Wita each delightful flower,
And every leaf and bud I see,
*Bear impress of thy power.
The ripening Snmmer's burning sun
The Winter's piercing cold
The changing seasons as they run,
Thy wisdomn, Lord, unfold.
The joy that centresin my cot,
No less thy wisdom owns,
With rural happiness my lot,
I cannot envy thrones.
Love dwells within my peaceful breast.
At every morning's dawn
*And when the sun sinks in the W~est,.
My cares are all withdrawn:
Although secluded from the mart
Where crowd the thoughtless gay
Where in the scenes that vex the heart,
'Men waste their lives away.
Bsidle the hill the parning brook
.Glad natture's fond retreat
With gratitude to Thee I looks
3nd sngr of iny reenf
For lot so blest, my voice I raise,
Almighty 'God to thee;
Thou needest not an angel's praise,
Much less such praise from me.
But I will bless thy bounteous hand,
For all thy gifts bestowed;
Before my heart could understand,
Ten thousand thanks I owed.

Morus Multicaulis.-If the sians of tllh
times are not deceptive. there will he uhe
ensuing Fall and Winter, a great demand
for the buds of the Chinese Mulberry, in
consequence of the almost total failure of
the present Crop. In this city and
vicinity, the business has been ex
tensively engaged in, and in no instance
within our know ledge. have inure thai
half the plantinas come up. In mnany in
stances, the falure of the cuttings to vege
tate k much more discouraging. And
this seems to be the general complai..t
throughout the country, wherever the eal
ture of -Multicaulis hits he,-n enatgel in
North and South. The 'Newhern Spec
tator mentions that. out of 1510 roots and
cuttings, planted by ona# individuni in that
place, only about one dozen have co-ne ttp.
Ral. Reg.
Feeding Horses eith Grain.-The pro
per qtmantitV ol'ie reslective kind, is reg
ulated by weight, for in this proportion
are the different kinds considered utirt
tions. As for example, we give to a horse
per day, half a bushel of oais, the weight
of which is seventeen pounds, and if we
wish to change to other train, as barwe.,.
rye, or Indian corn, the same weight will
suffice; andi as these trains are nutch hea
vier thtan oats a proportionate less (1ta .i.
ty by measure wil sultlice. Another rule
deemed important is this. that whenever
heavier grain is substituted for oats. a
quantity of fine cut straw should be added
as a substittute for the husk of aie oats.
This induces more perlect digestion of the
grain.
Oats are more beneficial to horses if
ground; and hay, if chopped fine.
TUCK iN YoUR RUFFLE.--"We'
few nails to make," said a hhaksmith to
his son as lie came home from school at
12 o'clock. Thomas tucked in his rulille,
and took offhis coat, and was a ilack
smaith till he earned his dinner, iand eat at
with a good relish. "Pit out your rill..
Thomas, it is schon' time no,." said lifs
farther. This is the picture of the day;
but it would answer just as well for a good
many others. Thomas expected it; and
was as happy with his rutfli- tucked in as
his mates at their play.
It woulb he no bad notion in these hard
times, for many a youtng man to ttck in et.
ruffles and -wing an axe, or hold a plouch.
ar make a nail--for many a youtg manat,
whose expectation of riches from the guins
of trade are sadly disappointed, to earn a
living in some calling which the world
honors less, but pays better-some occu
pation which while it holds out no delu
sive hope of immense wealth by a sing
speculation, assures him of competent
rood and raiment.
We would here recommend Agricilture
