Tlte Old Cottage Clock BY CHAKLKS SWAIN*. Oh! the oil, old clock, ol'the household stock Was the brightest tiling and ilic neatest : Its ha.>"ls, though oM. luel a loueli ol'^old. And its chime in. still the -weetest. 'Twas a monitor, tf-o, though its sweet words w. re I few, \ et they lived, though nations altered ; And its voice still stivitg, warned old atul young, When the voice ol liicndsliip faltered ! "Tick, tick," it said?""|iiiek, quick, to bed? j Ko"ten I've eiveu wu.iiiiic ; Up, up, anil go, or else, you know, You'll never tise soon i i tlte morning!" A friendly voice was 11..t oM. oM clock, A< it stood iii the corner smiling. And blessed the lime with a inerty chime, The wintry hours beguiling; But a cross old voice was the lire-ome clock, As it called at day-break boldly, When the iluwnlooked g.ey o'er the misty way, , And the eatly air blew coldly. iivi\, ntn, n .-urn? <|iiiv i\ urn m ovi, For five l'vi- given warning; You'll never lull C lit Iihli, you'll never get wealth, Culess vou'er up mhui in the luon.i: c." j Siil! hourly the sound goe.- round aid luuutl, Wil'i a tone tlnit ceases never ; While tears are shed foi tlio brgbt days il?, | Anil tllC OKI day -l lost fit; ever !

There are two classes ot' planters in our country. One w ho are strictly cotton makers, bending all their energies, and making all their skill tributary to this one great object. Corn and cereals generally, arc recoil- j darv considerations, rem iving little attention only as tliey may be necessary to sustain, in llie largest and most successful culture of j 'heir favorite crop,and stock-raising is whol- j ly neglected, or prosecuted only to a limited j extent. This class of planters make cotton to buy meat and llour, and mules and every thing, and insist that the profit is on their j side. The other class are partly planters | and partly farmers, so diversifying their labors as to make moderate crops of cotton, j raise their mules and horses, make their meat and wheat, and many other things, going' to increase their von:forts, and add to iiivii i'luma, m>i .nolle l?y W'liai UK')'in:i)' [ save, but bv what thoy may si ll, after meet- ' ing their own wants: thus leaving Ilie pro- ) ducts of the cotton crop a nett unincumbered ncoinc. This latter class are largely in the minority,and are set dow n as slow, belonging j to the old school. It is, therefore, a question, not very well settled, as to which s-idc the profits are to be. award. Public sentiment seems to preponderate very largely with the former, if we are judge by their choiee. ft is, nevertheless, in our opinion, worth the enquiry, ,it;u wo tncreloro make if. The result of 1 one, or even a half a dozen years may bo no test; the end of the race must determine w ho , are the victor*. The rapid rushing torrent foaming and chafing and exhausting itsi if. often leaves a dry dusty channel, while the gentlu rivulet, is accumuh ting as it goes, getting deeper and spreading wider as ii runs further. Thus, it often happens, are these classes typi.'iod. The one seems to he running fast and making large dividends, unmindful that the fountain is being exhausted and the supplies giving ont, llis interest iu the form of dividends may be large, but his principalis reduced. His lands are wearing out, his negroes do not increase,and i dilapidation has made its impress upon his barns, and fences and fixtures. Soon red Hills and guUtss, and brooinscdgc, and the foxes have the possesion. A no a home must be sought, expenses of transportation insured, new improvements made,new lands cleared, old association* severed, old friends given up, old comforts l?fi. behind ?nd ? boat three yenrs of'tim", tui?i many lives, by ? change and exposure sacrificed, before much uut income m?y be ulsirned. The other is ' moving steadily forward nil the tiiuo. Ilia ^ seres may not be so large but good tillage t< maIta bis crops sure ; bis time ia is not d icavily t.\e?l, so that lie has opportunity for enovatin ' and improving his laud ? having ittle necessity for improper pressure and xposure, his negroes are less worn,r.tul in* reuse; his barns in good order and full; Ids uclosures and fixtures generally in good repair. There may be smaller dividends but hen the principal remaining mitouehed. I lis ands are i.ot exhausted, and the original investment stands. No time is to be lost, therefore, in settling a new home; no sarriliee of old friends, associations or com- \ forts. These >a\ings in lime, as well as in [ | in wear and tear, are guile snfiieient to eover i i immense seeming dilVereticis in annual op. I ? , 1 i orations. The result of our observation has i been, that wealth is most frequently found with the latter class; with a large prcpon- j dorance in their favor, of quiet and eoinfort, | and of that true independenee which no one has, in so large a degree, as he who lias all j the comforts and many of the luxuries of ! life, and can claim them all as the trifls of 1 I mother earth, in return for kind treatment j ami skilful culture. Our mi ml lias been directed to this train of thought just now, mainly, by an incident xvliifli transpired not long since. We were riding with a friend in the country, and met not far from the city, a substantial planter of j the latter class which we have described.? He was coining ill to sell his crop of cotton, j and was bringing along, as a sort of appen- j dix to the eiop, a lot of beef eattle, so iat and sleek as to make one think bo was getting into the neighborhood of some Kentucky blue grass firm. Tlicy were none of the u ide horned, long legged, w ire grass stock. We doubt whether there lias been a more welcome visitor to the city sincr /i?g hilling limr. As we came back, tve met another of our very lest citizcus, but a little given to big crops of cotton, and lie asked, "it" we had met a drove of mules'" lie too, laid been up sclii:.gcotton, and buying mules. One ofthe.se men, as we bear.!, got three quui lers of a cent in the pound, more for his cotton, than the other. Which do you guess it was i We have no quarrel to make with any man, but must leave each one to do as lie ph ases."in this free countrv." Ilut we have no question, the policy is w rong, and ought to be changed, by diversifying our labors more, and s.? king out the plans for renovating and improving our lands, There may seem i<? be some sacrifice it: the beginning, but the probabilities are, that the account will foot up. in the end, in favor of the latter elss. Tiie Ct.EfsYUKA, ok Water Ci.ock.? The clepsydra, or was water-clock, was introduced into Koine in the year IN". II. by 1'. Cornclions Mcipiu Naeissa. This clock consisted of two bellow cylinders, placed one above another. I'rom the upper one, the water issued, drop by drop, into the lower one. In this was a lig 't body which floated, and as the cylinder gradually tilled with water, this light body rose, and by means of certain marks indicated the lime of the day. Jtut there w as one great ilitllcultv in all these clocks. At tl I 11... water out r.ijii<l!y, ami afti rwards more slowly, so that they required a great deal of care and regulation. In 111<.* seventeenth century much earn was given to tInimprovement of water clocks.

It consisted of a cylinder J divided into several small cells, suspended hy a thread lixed to its akis, in a frame, on which the hour distances found hy tri.,1 wuic marked. As the water flowed from one eell to another, it caused the cylinder to revolve slowly. A v? rv ingenious application of the p ineiplo of the clepsydra for inensureing minute portions of time is due to the late (,'apt. II. Kater. Insleud of water he used niercu ry.
