I dreamed last night I saw thee Sweet spirit, thou wert there; TIM ruby lip was smiling. To step was light as air. Thy easrt seemed like a fountain Of waters gushing free. And in thie eye such glances As sparkle on the sea. It twined thy golden tresses With blossoms rich and rare, Aa3d premed thy cheek. sweet maiden, 8,, beautifal, so fair. The summer left its beauty, And waited through the vale, A fond of perfamed incene, On ev'ry passing gale. SI eimaId 6 lived forever So radant aa loi Was the valiev o' my dream; The liquid songs ofgladness. Fram birds o ev hue, Were stealing throng the shadows Of the cyprus aad the yew. The hum of varied insects Came sweetly on the ear. Ihe wandering tones of music, That evening zephyr. bear The stre'lets marmuring whisper t Was melody to me. Forever as I hastened, It told a tale of thee. It said thou wert brighter. Than the early morning hour It raid that thou wert purer Than the dew drop os the Bower. It told me thou went gentle As the sighing winad of even. And liked thy youthful spirit With the golden dreams of heaven. Ah! how Iloved to linger By that chrystal water's Bow, And hear its chaunted cadence, Its numbers soft and low, Its echoes were the voices, tif a low-breathed magic lute. Or the sweetly warbling accent. Olahe Alpine shtepherd's Gute. The spirit of'the morning Came breathing n'er mny brow: I drank its ecolng rag~rance, But oh ! that welcomie vision W as dearer fatr to me, Thain tbs odour-laden zephyr. From the mountain or the sea. G. W. I .T1jsCelidB8keew From the Newe Orleans Crescerd City. sKETcuEs or vTHE WEST. The Gola Mine.-Many years ago, whbe the now proud Queen city of the Wei was a thrivina village with log cabins an hard cider in abundance, a tall, thin visa god mortal rode a miserable apology for horse through the principal street, an stpped at the sign of the " Chained Bear, on Water street. Ho was an originali every respect. His conskin cap wa drawn over his small grey eyes, and hi nut-dyed coat was buttoned up to his chit abhough the Lthermometer, was high tu in the nineties. Buck skin imexpressiblb ornamented a pairof legs which had doub less done the State some service in runur down some wild varmnints, and his cowbit boots appeared to be matde for the doub purpose of protectiug~it feet from tI nows of winter, and carylug water to e: uinguish fires. Walking up to the bar, tI strange customer thus addressed the Ian' lord. eeHow much for my horse anid me, Iani lord-'Spose I stay a short time ?" "We charge so much a day for yA and so much for your herme," replied ti concise and intclligenit keeper of ti 'Chained Bear.' "All right-I know you as well as I'd wintered you, nted hero I'll drive n stakes. As for black Dick, he'll nt tro ble you much, old fellow-.i've learnt hi to live on abort allowancC. When lets e ed from the crso roas, I put a pe-ck corn behind my blanket, and told him -h@ t most get along with it, to whieh be atreed, but it didn't last, and he hasn't had a crib for two days-but no mauter; just give me , that green battle, landlord-I'm as dry as a rattlesnake's skin !" The red-eye was furnished, and 4hree doubloons rattled on the pine counter. a drawnArom the moleskin purse of the stranger. -Now forsomerib-timberand aspread," said the out-and-oumer, "and do you hear, landlord, leave a bole for me to get out of early in the morning, for I have got some mighty particular business on hand." I "Yes sir-yes sir-your name is" "Bill Thompson. from Snake Creek good night." The keeper of the 'Chained Bear' was at a loss to fid his customer, and racked his brain to divine the nature of the 'migh y particular' business he had to transact :ihe folluwing day. The bar room loafers had their say-old Mrs. Koownll her guess ' the knowing one.' their thoughts-hut all concluded it would be better to let old * Father Time reveal the future doings of -Bill Thompsun fronm Snake Creek.' ln mhe mo. i., the guest was missed, but he made hia appearance at the break fast table, apparently in a very good hu mor with himself and all the world A f. ter the repast. be enquired for the residence of the Rev. Mr. .--a chemist of good repute, und sloped. He soon stood at the door of the scientiae gentleman, and was invited to take a seat in the parlor, by the alable and accomplished tenant. "Haven't time to stay, thank you-just brought some lumps with me I found V'oth er day on a patch of ground I own, to see wlhat it is." said the apparently 'green,' at the same time producing three or four small lumpsof metal. The professor carefully examined the lumps, and stepping into his laboratory, soon returned with an anxious expreeston of countenance. "You say you found these lumps on your farmn" '-Sanin-picked 'em up one day last week after a tiunderin' shower." "Did you observe any similar pieces 1" -Didn't take notice-plenty of 'em. I 'spose-the boys have a lot." "Well. sir, il' -- specimens are. -nay, int precious-'etal such a stae of pr P bu gl IT You . I recko I -cam find. morning, sir, Ofcourse the news, through the town, that tryman had a gold mine - The bar-rmom of the -,Biar" was throng ed with anxious purchasers, who resorted to a varicty of devices to pull wool over the eyes of the unsophisticated countryman. Ihe lunmps passed through the hpads of thousands-the knowing ones, in bearing of the stranger, expressed doubts as to their quality-others co'tended they were copper, and not a few pronounced them stone! The excitement hourly increa.ed various offers were made for tho Snake creek farm-but the owner did mot appear the least disposed to sell. Five, ten, and twenty thousand dollars were olfiered for land not worth a bundred, but the clodhops per wai inflexible; he did'a care about selling out his gold patch. At last he was offered by a company of enterprising spe. culators thirty thousand dollars for it, on the nail, on his assurance that " the boys" had gathered a pile of similar looking lumps. The bargain was closed-the cash forked over-the eager purchasers shown the "gold patch"-but no more lumps were found ! Men were employed to dig in eve my direction, but no traces of a vein could be discovered, and the greenhorn was never seen afterwards. AN usrOaTUr~aTE AERONAUT. After noticing the several not very favor .able asccnsionstmade by M. Cosmachim, the ,Aeronaut, en the autumn of last year, from the Gardem of Plnts and the Rotode des .Brotmeaux am Lyons. the Courier de Lyon gives an account of another of his flights, thbe results of which were 'till muore disas , trous. It appears that M. Cosnmachi, hay i ing gone to Turin to exhibit his balloon I duming the fetes on the occcasion of the - marriag of the Duke of Savoy, made a a successful ascent, to the great satisfaction of I all the spectators; but unfortunately reach Sed the earth again at a place not very far a from Turin, called Montcaller, garrisoned as by a regiment of soldiers, who had never is seen or heard ofra balloon, aod who, in , their ignorance. took M. Cosmashi for sonme p fallen angel, sent to hring wo and death es upon the world. They consequenmtly set i upon him, and beat him until he became g senseless. and then tore his air-borne car, le with all its apparatus, to tatters, causing ke him a loss of at least 18,000 francs. in ad m dition to his personal injuries. The Lyorms i Journal adds, however, that the King of m Sardinia, en learning this act of stupId I fanaticism. taicted a severe punishmeni on the regiment, and compelled it to make I ample compensation to M.'ICosmachi for all his loss and suffering. me 5AuRar, cUPJostTT. e The Tuaael aud Camertn Lake! .--T hie beautiful little Lake is in Kir'derhook con if ty, in this State, and about 25 itlienih. my tant from Warsaw, which we had tba pes i- nre of visiting s few weeks since. kI m situated on a high dividing ridgsndfbt Pt- ........UC , tob a. t..h..n. at.n thd ~rof the tunnel-tbe circuin bichat the mouth is about 15( feet, t 10 at the bottom.

There is now residing in the vicinity of Lancaster (Pa.., says the Germantown Telegraph, and has been for some years, a highly respectacle old gentleman who was present at the execution of Major An dre! He was then a surgeon in the French Army, and was on a visit to this ennntry with a view to offer his assistance to the heroic band then stn ggling for their free dom. He subsequeatiy entered the ser vice, and was among the unfortunate who were thrust into the Jersey Prison Ships, and underwent the dreadful cruelties and sufferingswhich prevailed in those living s id'er.

The third office perforated by *ater is that of dividin; the manure applied to the soil, of dissolving some portions of it, and conveying them to the organs of the plant. in a state fitted for their digestion and nourishment. All kitids of water arc tot equally suit able for this purpose; rain water, which is the purest. and contains the most air of any, is ilso the best for supplying the wants of plants.

Chron. From the Southern planter. Mr. Editor,-Allow me to claim a small space in your valuable paper, merely for -the purpose of correcting a slight masap preheusion of-A Breeder" in respect to the color of the sow from which Is descended the beautiful white pig belonging to Mr. Subleti. referred to in his article in your June number. She was truly (as I am informed) the nf5pring of a white Berk shire boar. but her mother is not white, as your correspondent describes ber. She is, to use his own descriptive language, "dis tinguished by a tawny ground, marked with blackish spots"-a brief yet compro bensive compendium of what Low and others have said cf the Berkshire breed of swine, Of the genuineness as Berkshires of both parents I entertain not a doubt, but that they are of a different variety from the black Herkshires I am equally confident, not having been subjected to the Siamese cross, which constitutes the peculiar and distinctive characteristic of the last men ioned breed. The sow above referred to is now in my possession. She has a litter uf pigs by a very fine black Berkshire boar of tbel:st blood, but not one of them is marked after their sire. They are all spot ted after the manner of their mother, and partake of her symmetry and beauty in form and appearance. I hild these in just as high estimation as I do my Berk shirr pigs of Siamise descent, yet I should not think of sending them to a person or dering in the usual terms. "Berkshire pigs." because they are not of that precise varie ty I bhould presume to be intended. They are only China Lerkshires, while the oth ers are Siamese Berkshires, Admit these distinctions and all controversy about white and black varieies would be at an end. Yours, respectfully. Ca. B.

The animal ad about on three and was almost worthless for milk, tle remainder of the seasbil A year or two after, I had anoth er cow attacked by the same disease; and thinking it somewhat simikit in its nature to a felon, I became convinced of the pro priety of opening it. Therefore, when the cow lay down, (which she frequently did,) with a sharp knife, I made an incision lengthwise through the skin on the tottom of the foot. where it was most swelled and inflamed. It bled pretty freely, and in a day or twa after, I perceived maner ma kids its way out from the cut, and in a few days the animal was well. t3iuce that time, I have had a number of :owsattacked by the disea-., and (when had,) I have always applied the samo means. and idvariably with the same icc cess.

V. recommended a hickory ramrod (or piston,) to relieve choked cattle. I have known cattle killed by the use of such an instru metnt, it burtinag or breaking the pipe. The best methiod and easiest, is to take at lump of lard (cold,) about the size of a heu's egg and a spoonful of powder mix1- -'', ' ed with it. and haul out the tongue and thrbw it into the throat let the tongue go - back, and they are relieved in one minute.
