0 LET ]US DIE IN BATTLE. FAINr would 1 die in battle, lEar from my native shore; The musket's tone should be my dirge, My knell, tho cannon's roar. I'd feel so glad and happy, To depart from friends away, No loved ones there-no sobs or sighs, To wako a wish to stay. Fain would I die in bsule, Upon the blood strewnl plain, The gore from out so many hearts Would wash away the pain. No tomb-nhtould mark my resting place, No land inscribe my name; -0, soft would be my pillow Mdi tle dying, and the slain. - o let me die in battle, Mid the vitor's loud huzzas, Mid the shriek of those who nobly fell, In Freedom's glorious casse. 0, let-me die in battle. Mid the soldie/s ci'ndred gore; o let mne die, were noem may weep, Or none my loss deplore. .Ara let it be i autumn, Away fronr friends most dear; Leb ft patting breath of summer Hover gently round my bier. With. the "Stars and Stripes" around me, To cheer my bed of death, Onknown without, friend to weep, Sweet would be my parting breath. --- STANZAS. Tis withering leaf -bath winds to sigh Around its early grave, And morning weeps her dewy tears, O'er flowers she could not save; But thou, oh ! heart! when thou at last In thy lbnc gravsfl lie Who'll shed for thee one pitying tear, Or beathe one passing 1gh? The waves a sad, sweet requiem chaunt For the wild ocean's dead, A funeral dirge the billows sing Above their stormy bed; But thou, oh, heart, so long the sport Of sorrow's whelming tide; None weep-none smile with thee, none care If joy or ill betide. Around the temple's ruined shrine The friendly ivy clings, And lowers e'en on desert air Pour out their offerings But thy shrine, lorn-and lonely heart, Uneheered. must ever-be ;. No ivy twines for thee its wreath, No.Jiower blooms for thee. LOVING SMILES. T: a ~. y warm the grass to life, Th 1e edoping flower, And eyes g:-ow bright that watch the light Of Autumn's opening hour But words thtbeteof tenderness, And smi'es we know are true, Are warmer than the summner tinme, And- brightcr shun the dew. It is not much the world can-give, With all its subtle art, And gold and gems are not the things To satisfy the heart ; But oh I if those who eluster round T~le altaand the hearth,. Have gentle words and. loving smiles, i.pw beautiful-ia earthi! KINDNESS.. As stars upontbo tranquil sea, !n mimic glory shine, So words of kindness in the heart, Reflect the sourt'e diiihe ; O then be kind, whoe'er thou art, That breathest maortal breath, And it shall brighten all thy life, And sweeten even death. Planting Cotton. Land intended to be planted irn Cotton should be bedded up as early in the wvin ter as possible, to allow the freezes to pul. v'erize the soil thoroughly and the land to settlie immediately under the taproot. Sihe rows should be laid off' with a scoot err plow ag distanices suitable to the strength of the soil, say five and a half to'-siocfeet on- botton- land,. and four to five feeti on upland, or even less than four, if'the-soiL, is thin. Cotton' should! be planted from. the fifteenth- of March to the 10th of April, as tho season' or sore of land' warmats. Seed should be well saved,. and if kept over one year for planting, will ensure a better stand and more vigorous plants, as the imperfect seed perish by keeping over. They should be sowvn at the rates of one and a half to two bushels to the acre; in direct proportion to the width of the rows, (narrow ones requiring more seed) and the stifiess of the soil; the latter case demanding also ujmre seed. Frony one- to four stalks should be left in a standf attlis time,- and the distance be. tween stands governed1 by the strength of the aoilg though thick planting in mnoderatiour on all soils-say six feet by eighteen inches on bottom land, and four feet by twelve inches on- good,' upTnd wvill be found the most prod'umtive in an average of years. The second plough ing should be done with a sweep next to the bottom, with a mould board next to the plant, to dirt the young cotton, and the balance of the rowv ploughed out with a turning plough to keep up the bed. 'The stand should then be thinned to one stalk in a place on strong land, but from two to four may be left on being thinned to supply limbs by stalks, all subsequent plowing in ordinary seasons should be done with the mould board to keep up the bed. It is doubtful whether topping cotton is beneficial in the average of years, sometimeg doing well and at others failing in neli)y similar circum atane3. Manuring in the Mill Or Will As we suppose most of thbibroad ets .manuring,.intended for this reason, is a ready done, we will devote a few thought just as you are getting ready to plant, t manuring in the hill and drill. It is t be regretted that our means at commanu do not allow-us to minister to the want of our fields with a more liberal haut But with so much surface to cover, a our Southern plans of planting seem ti require, it is almost impracticable to d all whic.h the wants of the soil may de mand, or our judgment might dictate, a right. He, therefore, may be set dowi as provident, who has provided liberal; for administering, even in broken doses to the wants of the coming crop. Ai excellent manure for corn, and one mor( or less at command on every farm, i cotton seed. We think the best plan fo their use on this crop, is to drop them a the time of planting upon the top of the corn, and cover all at one operation. The corn will come through them, and they are a fine protection against frosts or ex cess of rain, and can never be removec by working, as they are apt to be wher laid upon the surface. A very smal] handful imparts great benefit to the crop If stable or compost manures are to b used, they ought to be - well rotted, es pecially on sandy lands. This alst ought to be dropped in the same furrow with the seed corn, but not on it, but very near it, and covered up also. Some persons choose to drop this manure upor :he top of the hill. Much of its berefits nust be lost by exposure to the sun and -ains before covering, and much again nust be displaced in the first working. Those manures are both good for cot on, but we think should be deposited nuch deeper in the earth than for corn. l'he roots of corn run much nearer the ;urface in seeking their supplies; the topa -oot of cotton is the main feeder of the ylatnt, and strikes deep into the earth for ts food.- There it should be deposited, iot alone because it is there demanded, )ut because the a-t-on of the sun upon he manure thus deep in the ground, is nuch less injurious in its effects upon the 'ruit of the cotton plant. It often hap. )ens, in the precariousness of the season, hat by an injudicious use of hot or trongly stimulating manures, the weed s made to grow most luxuriantly, when little reverse of the seasons will throw )ff most of the fruit. This may be LVoided to a very large extent, by de. )ositing such manure so deep as to be )ut of the reach of such influences. rhese- precautions apply mainly to stable )r strong compost manures. Yet we dvise all manures intended for cotton to >e deposited deeper than those for corn, is better suiting the habits of the plant, md protecting against the scorching sun )f August, the month in which the fatt )f the cotton is generally settled. We Jo not say much about the quantity to be ised, as you will be in no danger of do nug too much. A handfaill of stabule ma inre, or of cotton seed eithe-r. dronuned at distances of two feet in the bottom oi a deep furrow, to be covet-ed up in form. ing the bed, will do much benefit. Lei the opening furrow for- planting be ovei the manur-e,and sow the second in th< fruill, and' t1e~ young roots will soon fin< these supplies, and before thiing time the plant will begin to showv its keeping We might talk about ether manures, bu as these constitute the stock mainly o the country, we deem it useless to saa more.-Soil. of thue South. Small IMatters in Agriculture. From all sections do w~e hear the~ cry of short provision crops, and that thert is an alarming truth ini the cry who car doubt when lie steps into a provisiot tore of one of our cities and learns thia bacon-sides are fifice:t cents, per pound omn-one dollar per bushel, and all othe Latables inl propeortin? Why is this The drought,.no- doubt, has much to di with it, but it is not entire-y owng to th< driought.. Ourr farmers and' plainters havi not given sufficient attention to the smnal matters of agriculture. Who cares fo corn, potatoes, peas, and the thousant ittle garden luxuries, that all may have when- the great stapl'o commands goo< prices V But alas! the great staple i dowvn, anad the- small matters are up. I the Apostle meant what' he said, whet he declared that those who provided no for their own household w~ere wors4 than infidels, wve fear our people are in bad plight. " Despise not small things, says inspiration-but hiow fewv heed it We talk of our three million bags of cot ton, as though it wvas the lever of thi world; let us talk more of the humbli crops. Who has planted the gouber an< the cowv pea-who has fine fields of po tatoes-who is well stocked with carrots rutabagas, and turnips-wvhose corn cril is full-who is well supplied with ft-ni for the year-who has a supply for mnedi ciual and savory purposes-and, in short who have any of the comforts of lifi around, theta that they do not expect ti pay for from the proceeds of cotton, a its lowest prices ? Again wvesay "des pise not small things."~ Were ther4 gouber peas in abundance, baconywoub not bring fit'wen cents per pound.

"Well, my good wo'man," said the doctor, "how is your husband to-day Better, no doubt." i "0 yes, surely," said the woman. "le is as well as ever, and gone to the field." "I thought so," continued the doctor. The leeches have cured him. Wonder ful effect they have. You got the leeches, of course I" "0 yes, they did him a great deal of good, though he could not take them all." " Take them allI Why, my good wo. man, how did you apply them I" " Oh, I managed nicely," said the wife, looking quite contented with herself. " For variety's sake, I boiled one half, and made a fry of the other. The first he got down very well, but the second made him very sick. But what lie took was quite enough," continued she, seeing some horror in the doctor's countenance, " for lie was better the next morning, and to-day he is quite well." " Umph!" said the doctor, with a sa pient shake of the head. " If you have cured him, that is sufficient, but they would have been better applied external ly." The woman replied that she would do so the next time; and I doubt not that if ever fate throws a score of unfortunate leeches into her power again, she will make a poultice of them. AsKING QUESTIoNs IN A HUnny. "Tom a word with you." " Be quick, then; I'm in a hurry." " What did you give your sick horse tother day I" " A pint of turpentine." John hurries home, and administers the same dose to a favorite charger. who, gtrange to say drops off defunct in half an hour. His opinion of his friend Tom's veteri nary ability is somewhat staggered, He m-eets him next day. Well, Toni." "Well, what is it." "I gave my horse a pint of turpentine, and it killed him as dead as Julas!" "So it did mine l" KINoSLY tells a very good story abolit Deacon Havens. It appears that at last harvest time, the deacon had a " mowing bee," and among the party were two in teresting sons of Belial, who were more inclined to cut eapers'than clover, One of their tricks on the old man consisted of filling the tin horn with soft soap, and slightly stopping the orifice with cotton. When the hour of 12 o'clock came, our venerable friend seized the loaded instru ment, and blew a blast which scattered the contents far and near.- To say that the deacon was displeased, would but slightly describe his feelings.~ He "was enraged ; for the first time in his life lie became excited. Says he: " Gentlemen, I ay anr dirm-tn-am ihe head th Sunday school, and have preached the gospel for five and thirty years, but i'll be - if I can't lick any man who soft soaped that trumpet." "I wIsiu I owned an interest fn that dog of yours," said a neighbor in our hearing the other day,. to another~ neigh bor, whose clog would dart towvard the r lerrs of any one whom he might be talk ing with, and then " back up again," at-e look up in his master's face, as mweiu' as to' say, " Shall:I pitch ito- Irhnt-shnfl I give him a nip on the le'eg -Avw inter est in my dog!l" said the mraster ; " what could you do withi it?" "Why," replied the other, " I'd shoot my half within the next five minutes !" DURING the examination of a witness, as to the locality of the stairs in a house, the counsel asked him,-" wvhich way did the stairs run ?" Th'le witness, who, by the way,is a noted wag, replied, "one way they run- rp,- but the other way tkey run down." The learned counsel witred both eyes, and then took a look at the ceiling. IA MAN with a red face,. and- looking rather shabby, called at a house in the F country on Sunday, and asked for a drink ot cid'er.- The good lady of the house refused,- telling him that she would not. He ti-ged, telling her that she had better, for somi~e persons had entertained angels utnwares.- " Yes," said she, " I knowv that, hut angel's don't go abont dri'nkig eider on Sunday." .A SMaRT L~a.-A boy from the coun try wvas recently taken in a gentleman's family. One evening after having beeni called up to the drawing-room, lie came down into the kitchen, laughing immoderately. " What's the matter ?" cried the cook. "Why, dang it !" said lie, "there are twelve on 'em up there, who could'nt snuff' the candle, and they had to ring for me to do it?" Orw Deacon Billings, a staunch tern peran-ce man, having accidentally swal lowved a rousing glass of gin, wvas asked how he felt after ft. "Felt !" cried the deacon, " why, I felt as though I waa sitting on the roof of our meeting-horse zed every shingle wvas a jewsharp!l" " JAMEs, nlow I want to hear your lesson," said a schoolmaster to a little urchin, who wvas not in the habit of studying much. "Gueth not, thir; papa thays little boyths should be theen and not heard." IA PATrL.NDER, with a hod full of bricks fell from- the top of a three story house to the grotund. When lie- picked himself up, a bystander asked him if the fall dfd not I hurt him? "Och, your honor," he re tplied, "not in the least, but stopping so suddenly has nearly kilt me."
