POETRY. TO SOMEBODY. r I would not wed a maiden Just for her pretty face, \ For one good siege of small pox 1 That beauty will efface. |( Tis true a fine complexion Stands always fair in mart, 11 Yet liquid rou^e utid Ully white U OfV shares a goodly pai t. b (And still a dimpled check and chin 0 Will cause a witchery within. And eyes?bright eyes.'?blue, brown or grey? 1 May turn n Solomon nsttny.) w si I would not wetl a maiden ,, Just for h_T (mltrv pelf; For ton to one you'll have a time, And curse your ve.v self, For forging with a willing liaml 0 Those strong enthralling chains That bind you to a "crock of gold" As long*as life remains. " Sighing,?you'll talk ol "lute"?"decrees? e; Anil wish her at tli' antipodes t( Ere halt of life's brief circle's o'er, Ami feel e'en that's u dreadful bore. I would not wed a maiden Whose fancy's airy Hight s< Will guide her pen "the live long day y And fur into the night; ? Whose language and whose matchless grace Throw an enchanting spell Round where the varied circles meet, i?ave where the loved ones dwell. From such I'd turn with loathing sight. C( She savors much of " (Ionian's Right; Jr llcr's is the mind without a soul? A tcill repugnant to contiol. S But I would wed a maiden ti Whose sweet and joyous smile j > Is but the index of a heart > < Unknown to pride and guile, And yet replete with light and love, 111 Like heaven's resplendent bow, w It guil< Is one's home with happiness ui And banishes ull woo. Then give me such a maiden, I With precious gifts thus laden: 'Her precincts ore a charmed ring, t* Whore life's vexations lose their sting." ci X-..I , ... n iiBi a numu iuyc such niaiucn?

The cai'j, I'linevJ^ Albert is the hest for early tise?there 1,1 are, however, many choice early kinds, A and most seedsmen claim to have a stipe- ai rior kind of their own, but when a choice variety, having the requisite qualities <>f flavor and productiveness is once obtained ol horarcful to save yo.tr own seed from the 1,1 first tliat ntnko their appearance ; they A may he much improved in this wny and |l I rough t to hour much earlier than when ,!l grown from seed raised in a Northern climate: the next best early variety is the (t Early May, and, for a succession, the early i1 mine. Tlio blue imperial is one of ilu ! most delicious niul tender pens wo hate 1 ever tasted. Knioiit'h Ilwnrf tnul tail , Marrowfat Pens are varieties much esteemed, which como in Inter, nnd tor ri< h but- ! lory flavor are not excelled by any other. I'eas should ho planted in diills from vj two to three feet apart. We have found i ii . i nt cotton seed an excellent protection when 1 placed on Cich side of the early varieties, j" Sow onion seed thick in rows, in soil ^ not too rich, if the billbs are not wanted ( to grow much.?very good onions may be grown for use if the seed is sown thinly in rich soil?thin tlioin out to three or four ( ) inches in the row. Those which are planted out should be set in well prepared ( ground six inches apart. The best vane ^ ties are the yellow Stratsburg. the White Or Silfor nL-iiiiinil ?I.a t W ?... w. hmu uiv ivuu iwr the principal crop. Potatoes will require the tint Attention, and should ho planted as early as possible. A variety known as the Walnut leaved, is one of the earliest and host. The Mercer is highly esteemed, but not so early by several weeks. The j-. ground should be well spaded and ma- ^ nured. We have found cotton seed put in the trench excellent for growing early ^ potatoes ; a few trenches should he put , in in this way. Plant in rows 20 inches ^ apart. Aspauaous beds should be set out or , old beds well forked up and enriched bv covering the tads with the l>est manure, ^ to bs followed with a sprinkling of anil, j '' as it operates favorably in improving the j, growth of the asparagus. Meat pickle or riue is still belter. If to be planted out prepare beds 4 teoV wide, deeply trenehfd. 20 to 24 inch&e deep, well enriched. c Plant the roots one foot apart, spreading -V thein well; cover them with four iuclns of incllow soil. They will be lit to cut the secoud season. House Kkuism should tie planted out; * it is easily cultivated if the ground is made [ u tuilicieiitiy fiCil aii<l WCll k proj>:?jf.ito-l by planting the young crowns and by slip* from the root*. j(| Huuuakii tuay bo sown this month in rows, ono foot apart, in rich ground, but at no reliance can bo placed in seed pro- ^ during the same variety, it is l?c*t to obtain ^ a fow root* of tho beat and largest va- J f riety grown; the root* will last for years but require an annual dressing of tho j. richest material dug in around tho plant. It U increased by slips from the root. It is familiarly known as the Pie Plant, the a jbot -talk* of which are used and is tho M. first article of the season from the garden " which can be wed for this purpose* and V is universally esteemed wherever it is .. * known. To force very early, cover with ' barrels, surrou .dod and covered with st> 1 _ uie manure. Labor (tlour Articjiork sec-d may be plenty when one year old?thev c' should oelraiwplanted in deep rich soil, *< two feet apart each ray. *jpi Cabdaqr.?For early cabtngea sow oo ie % gentle hot bed or in the frame, and ei aa Uto plants grow, harden thorn to si the full ORmwure of *he air, protee- tl # Cirtg Uiitfi from frosts 'Until Uryr can ir be transplanted in the spring. The best ft varieties for this purpose are the Eerly n ' York, the Early Bstteraes end the Large u Eaily York ; the two laat form bead# of a b I i#' & uperior size, and are tit for une quite as oon us the other. Follow these whh lio Flat Dutch, which is an excellent vaiety for Summer and early Fall use. The led Dutch for pickling. For Fall and Vintcr cabbage, the best variety are the .argo Late Drumhead and Rkkukn's ite; this last is, perhaps, the best variety ow cultivated. For Fall and Winter se, sow the seed uniil Into in spring in eds of rich earth ; incorporate a mixture f well rotted manure from the hog pen nd yard. The ground must be well orked and highly manured to obtain a upply of cabbages, and large tine heads lay be expected. Sow Kale and Musird. Cklkky may be sown during the close f this month, in rich meiiow ground, in situation w here the plant can be pro;cted. They will be tit to transplant arly in spring, in trenches which require ) be properly prepared. SriNACH tor Spring use should be sown s early as the ground can be well work J. The Round Leaved and Prickly cded are the best. It is one of ho e egolables that the ground cannot bo lade too rich, as the leaves will be more icculent and tender. Sow in drills, 0110 ot apart, and thin out to four inches. Lkituck.?The cos and cabbage lettuce institute the two families which nuinbtr iany varieties. When young the callage varieties are the sweetest, but at full . .......i. ?i.u 1 l-l.- 1 ? iwnvu linn in IVIVrSVUi lilt' UCM VlirHJ- I | os of the cabbage are the early. The , oyal cabbage, the Victoria ami the < [uinincrsiiiitli, tlio Brighton eos, White lul Paris cos, are among the best kinds hicli can be cultivated. The Victoria j ml l'aris are the two best to mature in ? uiuiiicr, as they withstand the heat. 1 ottuce thrives best in a light rich soil ith a dry sub soil. In poor and tcnu- t ous soils they never attain good size, and t in to seed prematurely, hike most other 1 ops, that soil is to be preferred which is j' ch rather from previous cultivation than t io immediate application of manure. It j of advantage to trench it, ami if it is L'cessary to apply manure it should be ell decomposed or in a forward state of eeay. For early use, sow in a warm loitered situation. Tvknip.?Sow a few in rich, well prcired ground. Tlio early white, Mat 'utch strap leaved and the early red top, re the two best for spring use and garlsi culture. .

COTTON SEED. It can I'C no longer questioned that the >tt<>11 se?si, in many parts of our couny is fast degenerating, and we hear frelent complaints from the planters on lis subject. ii The plants in many places, are not so V goroiis in growth nor in quantity and " tality produced as formerly. Wo are '! Allied that the staple of the cotton is [ ;ing seriously a flee ted by this degenera- v >n of the cotton seed; Various reasons r e assigned. One thinks it is owing to n e condition of the soil or the weather; n toilier thinks it is owing to the defective " anner of culture; "I must change my cd," says a third ; and thus a variety of mjeetures are started. The reason of is degeneration is made to appear when e consider that, year after year our farcrs, pitch their crops with seed taken 'oiilUi'Uously from the field. In the very iluro of things it must tlwindlo am be- J miu dwarfish in the course of time; and >tw ithstanding it depreciates under their ?'s, they still pursue the insane ja>licy. pon the same principle your stock of rises,cattle or hogs would degenerate and in out. \>o do not wonder, therefore, >at your cotton is seriously affected?you ^ ? nothing to improve it?to givo vigoi growth or constitution. Thcro is no need to change your seed? ^ 1 that you have to do is to pass through mr field and select your seed nom tho*o ants that exhibit inoet vigor of growth id produce the greatest number of bolls, hint those by themselves, and then call ^ jain as before ; or else select a few acres id plant it exclusively witli the best seed, j eeted as above, and in one or two years* hi will Lave aojH-rior seed, if not better ^ i.-in can be obtained any where else. If ju are too negligent or i ixy to make the ti ?cc.s*ary improvements, no complaints '? iouIU fall from your lips. The famous seeds about which so much said and for which sueh high prices are J] titl, have been brought up to this high H ate of culture by the means stated above * id by proper crossing kept up for a se- 1 e? of years. o Try tho plnn ind cated, and you will ? id a vast improvement in tho quality id quantity of your coltou.?Southern rgan. [Our Southern cotton planters, we bcsve, would find it to their advantage to le seed grown in distant localities, such i Georgia seed exchanged for Mississippi ed and vice versa. In the cultivation I rinany other plants this lias been found i work advautagimisly, increasing loth J te yield and quality of the crop.? iS'eirn- J fic At*rr'iCit*. Pleasuret of Fanner Life. iloraco (Ircely conclude# a recent agri t jitural add row in the following beautiful * yle: J M Ah for me, long leased on the storm- t t waves of doubtful conflict and arduous ? ndeafor, 1 bate begun to feel, since the a tades of forty years have fell upon me, ' ie weary, tempest driven voyager's long- 4 ig for land?the wanderer's yawning * >r the liandet where in childhood be est led by his mother's knee, and was miked to sleep on her breast. The sort down hill Of lift dispels many ilhiatoaa while it developes or strengthen* within us the attachment, perhaps long smothered or overlaid, for ' that dear hut, our J uome.' And so I, in the sober afternoon , jf life, when its sun, if not high, is still warm, have bought me a few acres of t and in the broad, still country, and bear- i ng thither my household treasures, have J resolved to s eal from the city's labors and inxietie8 a; least one day in each week, wherein to revive, as a farmer, the mem>ries of my childhood's hamble home.

And thus do I ailitly realize, but for a brief and Hitting ^ lay, the sereno joy which shall irradiate J lie farmer's vocation, when a fuller and s ruor education shall have refined and ihastened his animal cravings, and when ^ tcienco sliall have endowed him with her r reasuros, redeeming labor from drudgery J while quadrupling its efficiency, knd j rrowning with beauty and plenty our j. xmnteous, beneficent earth."
