- a, New Oduas 2wpk. 2U let Midemans jCsp.-The mel ancholy fate of this young man has excite aSe great degree of interest in tbis cnm mounity a'ad we are sure that any thing re lating to his uimely death will be ead with avidity. The following article, haa dod to as yesterday by Commodore Moore was foundupon his person after he receiv ed hiadeath wound; and was written, a has since been ascertained, but a few min utes before be appeared upon the field from whence he was borne, so soon to b a lifeless corse. The few lines which w now lay before the public, were the last b ever wrote, and may well be regarded a an emanation from the grave. They shom nhat were the feelicps of young Culp they lay aside the veil which a orldlines spreads before all our actions, and expos the workings ofa young. gallant and chiv amrous spirit. He was called to the fiel of blood to atone for some real or fanciec insult. In obeying this call, he bowed ti the despotism of public opinion, and sacri fleed all of his own preconceived opinion of moral and religious duty. Ho forgo the precepts of the mother who had rearet him-forgot, perhaps, the warnings of I sister-be heard Lut the hiss of execratiol which was sure to follow a refusal to fighi -he saw nothing but the "slow unmoviu Auger of scorn," which he knew would bi pointed at him. His resolution was taken and taken promptly. It was auch an ont as any young man of chivalrous feeling would be prom pted to form; aud we do nu blame hint for it. He calculated his chan ces, he knew be might fall. that lie migh be cut off in tie very spring time of his ex isteuce. with bis fondest hopes blighted and the bright dreams of his young bear unrealized; but it as better thus. better t perish in the freshness of purity of youth better to let his name fade from the eartl forever, than to link it with the scorn o men, to nuder it forever a 'y word and mnockery. Poor Boy! He has paid th penalty of his error' May some kind an gel drop a tear over his fault aud blot a from the record. We have no hope that the immolution o this victim, to what is falsely called honor will in any degree affect those who stem up as the advocates and champions of os bloody a code. Nor will it affect a large and mnore contemptibleclassof beings, wl themselves too base and cowardly to incul the risk of a duel, are yet always foremos its promoting one, and grst to rdise ibei foul voices against any one who may have the moral firmness to decline one. Thei are callous-the blood of a hundred vic ims, abundred names made desolate, a hundred bearts crushed and broken woulk not avail to bring one sigh from ibeir bo some. Hosor requires costly sacrifice and wriy should they not be made? Bab we have no patience with these duel mon ers and duel promoters-the whole tribe are not worth the pulseless heart from which emanated the sentiments contained Thinights Befre Fighting a Duel. Can any one set dopn and coolly an' calmly think on death, without a thrill vi brating every nerve?

The following proper and jus.t remarka we copy from the latltmore Clipper: United .blates Senator.--W e regret an see it suggested in the Doily Whig, that the -* Senate of Maryland should not go into the election for U. S. Sentator at alhe approach tog session of the legimlnture. A nd why should this course he adopted! Because the whig~s have lost the state! This ts not a sufficient reason-nor woumld it have been admitted by the whigp had the result beeni reversed. We are opposed to all such movemtenas. When a political battle ii fough', thme victors are entitled to all the advantnges of their position. It is no jns. tificatin to allege that the same thing bad been done in other states. What is wroon there cannot be right here. The step pro posed ought to destroy nny party that would adopt it. The wbigs have lost the astte, it is said, by their own divisions and folly, and they sbotid be content to suffer the consequences. We hope that the Sen ate will go into the election of U. 8. Sen ator-for this was a promiinent point with both parties during she contest. Politicians abould not forget the maxim "to do 'unte ethers as they would have others to do in to them." "We took the liberty .yesterday of en. taring our disent to the recommendatior of the Daily Whig, that the Senate nl Maryland shall refuse to go into the efec. . ion of U. 8. Senator as abe next sessIon, For this the Whig advises that we shall stick to our neutrality. This is preciselj what we have done and mean to doas ed itors, and hence our condemnation of thbe eourse reeatumended by the Whig. The editor intimates that in case of thte future success of the wbig party, the senior editot I. a oppets.V 1be did not, his.future fate.would ifer from his past expe"tence. -Neither kicks nor copers, however. can mdke him prove fals. to his. principles. He cannot wink at a wrong by one. party which he would openly condemn in anoth er-and be therefore repeats, that, if the Senate adopt tite advice of the Whig. and refuse to go into the-election of Senator. it not only ought to destroy, but it will de stroy, the party in this State to which the majority of Senptors is attached. South-Carolina Iron.-This Iron for ad hesiveness, strength and malleability, is thought to be superior to any iron, foreign or domestic. It is used at the Navy Yard at Washington. anJ will be used by Gnv eranment ror gun barrels. The iron region. indeed, in York and Spartanburg, South Carolina; and in all that section, ruuning up to Lincoln, North-Carolina, is as fine as any in the world. Nor is there superi or water power any where. And yet with Sallthese advantages, Soutb-Carolina has led for years a thick-skulled opposition against the very policy which would bring into use her natural resources. and give work to her population. Perverseness, pride and pauperism are the distinguished characteristics of the Palmetto State. Philadelphia Chronicle. ' The Tims.-The almost universal em barrassment under which the country now labours. enjoins upon all the duty of recip rocal furbearance. Muhitudes of men, qualified for every kind of businesa, are seeking in vain, the means of honest sub sistencein default of which, their facul ties are stagnating in idleness. This is the necessary result of that wild spirit of ad venture which seized upon all classes *ome years ago Few escaped the con tagion which possessed men of the gra vesl pursuits and the most sober character. The thirst of sudden wealth by novel means seems like an epidemic to fall pen odically upon the community, without distiocinn orpersons. conditions. or pur suits. Man is an imitative and gregariou% animal, and few have sufficient individual independence to defend them from a gen eral, pervading influence. This should teach us charity ior the errors of our fel low men, who are impelled and hurried a long by the popular current. Few are stoic or philosophers, and let him that .star.deth take heed lest he fall. We have made these remarks %ita the view of inculcating forbearance towards those who are depressed or stricken downt by the recoil of that *pring of enterprise which a few years ago was so inordinate-ly strained. Few there are, who have no' sulerel from the stagnation or businei., and the collapse of enterprnze a hich h. ve fllowed. Semetime must elapse befo're the tide which is now. we hope, near it. ebb. will begin to rise. Thousand, ur, v aiting the turning of the waters. In the mean time, we would enjoin tu!eratio. and patience, which are dictated by poh. ev as well as humanity. Tread not upon Itei fallen, but give him a chance to rise. Encourage the spirit of enterprize. rather than add additional weight to the bur iden h) which he is already depressed. Have patience with temporary misfor tune; grant indulgene to obligations ha i - cannot be at once redeemed. The -pre sent depression last forever. The dark r est moment is that which immediatelv precedes the dawn. Already we t hink Iwe see indicatitans of returning prosper ity. Our country is large, our fields fe-r Itile nur, products valuable, our people in duserious, e-nterpnsing, indomitable. With Isuch means of prosperity, and such ele ments of wealth, the adversity which has shed so general a gloom, must soon give place to better and br.~ghter times'. until these come, we must ausi~t ir, bear ing each other's burdens, and seek by -mutual kindness and forbenrance. io miti gae inevitable. but, we truet. only 'cm poran y evil..-W1$ashaington Spectator. Daring Filliaa.-We have scarcely ever recordedl a more darinig piece of villainy than that which occurred on Sunday nighi ;nst. The villian, and perhaps the murder er, whoever he wasn, entered the dwelling of Mr. Thomas Rutter, situated in Hatno vor, near Lee street, and made- his way into a room in which a .son of Mr. Rlutter slept. In this room was kcpt an unoadedl musket. The rascal loade- the piece, anti so placed it, primed and cocked, on the mantle piece. that by the slightest touch the charge could be lodged in the head of the sleeper, if he should awake. Thus prepared the robber proceeded to his work of pilfering, and collected a considerable amount of clothing. In the mean tiene the sot awakes and enquires, is that you fathi er? to which question the robber said yes. Atre you sick? Yes. Shall I go for a Doe tor! No. 1 am going out, and thirak I will be better in a fewy minutes. The villian left the room then with his ootey, aid the son nas again soon in the land of dreams. In the morning his father waked hinm, and found the gun in the position described. and the room wanting in many valuable articles. The conversation which had passed was brought to recollection. atnd all were overjoyed at the sinigular preserva tion from the initendedl murder of the bur glar, if the contingency should have called fhr such an aet.-Baltrare Suan,111th anat. Happiness of Pags.-The following ise the conclusion of the learned and phil, sophical report on swine, by WVilliam, Lin coln, at the agriculiu'al fair held at Alba nry, a short time since. Pigs are a happy people. We may talk disparagingly about living like a pig. To live like a pig is to live like a gentleman. Although it is not permitted by the order of nature that a pig should laugh, or even smile, he enjoys the next best blessing of humanity. the disposition to grow faL.

Acti-on and reaction is a common operation in the lawsl die physical world, and occupy the relation orfanse and effect, in regard to many results. that are partially taking place. Whes tihe pLimer shall become familiar with the ac tion ofihe earthy substances upon vegetalle and animal mauer, which in the form ofmanure has beetn commingled with them. and of the re action of the manure upon die earth in impurt ing to it those fertilising elements, whichsapply foond to the apongioles of the growing plant, he will be better qu dlified to understand its effects upon, and its incalculable value to the growing crop. %rious opinions prevail among practical men in regard to rie best mude of applying manure. I am persuaded that no general rule can be proscribed, which shall be adopted to all soilp and localities Each planter must de termine for himself, having reference to the character of his lands, the condition of the ma nure, the period of the year when can'ed to the fieids, the comparative convenience and des patch of the different modesof distribution, and various other considerations, which the circa". %tances of earh individual can alone suggest to die mind. There is one rule which may be considered as generally applied to all modes of manuring, whether it is placed upon or depos ted under the surface of the earth, which is to apily the best rotted manure to those plants of quickest growth and maturity. and oeessre. The remaining modes of improving lands withiin the range of the practicable opetations of the plater, are rotations of crops, occasional rest of impoverished fieli, and the tuing lunder such green crops of oats. rye. clover or buckwheat as time and opportunity will allow. A most extraordinary prejudice prevails with many persons, that rest to the land is of no ad vautage. The common belief that weeds, grass. and other vegetable products, ohaust the soil by their growth as much as they restore to their decay, is founded, I humbly conceive, in great fallacy. If this supposition were true, lands would receive no amelioration by growing up in forests, a resultso obvious and indisputa ble, that io man in hisusenses would at :ais dav have the hardihood to deny the fact. T- timo was when the earth was destitute of planis, and when it the progress of the mutation, to which its surface was subjected, they began to grow, they must have derived their limited nourish. ment from the elements of air and water. In this primitive condition of the earth, there was no organ-c mattcr.tnd it was only after the lapse of years that the growth and subsequent deiay of both animal and vegetable substanes imparted to the earth this pecundating ingre dient, intenided by nature as a rich provision for the nutriment of the whole vegetable king domn. The great art of successful cutivation will be found to consistit'that system, which is best adapted to the preseration of our land. for washing and to the retsnacn in the soil of those elementary principles, which rma the foo of plants; fino w'er nud can therefore recommend no other than that which consists of the making and applica. tion of tmanuire, rotation of crops, rest of im poiverished fiel. and turning un der crops of small grain to the utmost limit, to which the meanis of each planter masy he extended with .ilvarntage The combined agency of this sys tem ..f husbarndry, if steadily pursued. will in a few years resuscitate our exhausted fields, chaee the entire fsaa of the country, and be. stew plenty, and comfort, and inadependence nupon the humblest cultivator of the soil. In tho preaentt depressed price of agricultural pro deuct.', restuhing fromn lthe embarrassed condition of the traading world, the planter receives but sim all remntz.etration for his labor, and conse 9: en.mtly ant unexpected curtailment of his mte-ans.
