POETRY. Looks of Hair. (The following atanzas appeared a lew Years ago In the poet's corner of a Canadian newspaper. We think that all who read then will at once pronounce them Worthy of preset ration;] You're often heard me promise, Fred, One day to tell you where And from what treasured heads i shred These treasured locks of hair, Well now the time has come at last-, Your birthday festival, Has blithely come and swiftly pass'd, And you shall know them all. Twelro years havo fleeted since I bow'd In tearless grief, my knee Beside our dying sire, and rowed A parent's care for thee ; And I remember how yon tried, Till eren the menials wept, To wake our father when he died, And eaid, *he only slept." 1 nissnoricuria lock, nui'uaik,h-!f gray, I dipt it from hia brow. I've kept it sacrod till to-day. We will divide i?- now ; And when von look upon it,Fred, Still think you hear tho voice That with ita dying accents said, "My Father, bless my boys !" This raven braid belong'd to one Yon never knew, my brother. She only blesa'd her new-born non? And died ?our aainiod mother ! She left oe?but with us she left A fairer, tenderer flower ; But like a plant of sun bereft She witner'd from that hour. Spring bnda, around our mother's tomb Came just in time to wave ; We saw the flowers of autumn bloom Upon our sister's grave. My boy ! your tears are falling fast On yonder golden tress, )t is a relic, and tho last, Of her lost loveliness. And this long waving silken curl, Ah ! lhat you muatnot share ; You never knew the angel-girl Who gave that auburn hair. My beautiful! my bleased one ! And she, too, poss'd away ; I strove to breathe "Thy will bo done,' But it was hard to say. O ! by how weak and frail a thing May the heart's depths be atirr d ; How close and long will mumory dim To one light look or word ; And are not these slight looks with mor< Of spirit meaning fraught, Than all the mystic, letter'd lore Well! they ore happy now, dear boy, Their ransooi'd souls are free ; They fed no more earth's hollow joy, And real miserv. Our barks are struggling slow to shore By storm and tempest driven, But they have pass'd lifj's ocean o'er, And anchor'a safo in heaven. AGRICULTURAL." From the Spiritual TtUgrapk. What ia Isiliayl nr h. o. vail. Th? habitual custom among farmer* in almost every portion of the Union, \ to reserve a certain number of acres for i pasture lot, perhaps upon the poorest par of the farm, and at toe greatest distant from the cattle yards. To these field which are seldom ploughed, tho cattl are driven daily, and allowed the privi lege of ctopping the scanty herbage t< gratify the demands of a keen nppctit.' After the mowing season is over, the stocl of the farm is turned upon the meadow to feed and fatten upon the delicious at termalh. When allowed to roam at Urg< in this manner they are said to be a pMlUIO. Soiling is a comprehensive term ap plied to the practice of keeping cattlo a it seasons of the year in cool, well ven tilated stables, or in a nicely arrange* feeding yard, to which ell their food is car ried, and at auch seasons as practicable immediately after being cut. By pursuing the practice of soiling, tin same amount of land will sustain a great er number of cattle iu healthy condition* and at lower rates than if used as a pas tare. Soiling haa long been pursued in f>er many and other continental states, whih in England, at the present time, it is fount to be more profitable, and, indeed, tb< only plan which can be pursued in many sections, the high rates of rendering it es sen list to use every acre of land to th< beat advantage. Some of the more thorough and intelligent farthers in oui country are fully aware of the advan tages of soiling cattle, and are at present practicing It upon a large scale. The practice of soiling renders the use of interior Csacoa entirely unnecessary, and thus removes one of the greatest bur deos the fanner has to support. The cost of plain snd substantial fences tor the sub division of a farm of from one hundred to one hundred and fifty acres, cannot fall short of one or two thousand dollars, to ? " - "* "im Mil milium ?\p?miliurt of fitly or ? hundred dollar* for repair*. Thi* is not the only item?the lorn of time in taming team* at the end of the field*, the space taken up by the fences, and the trouble of removing noxious weeds which aAweys collect about them, should be taken into account when comparing the practice of pasturing with that of soiling. One acre of land from which the food in removed, and fed to cattle in the stable, will produce ae much ae four or fire under pasture. This has been fully proved by experiment in this country, while in Europe, it ie claimed that one acre atfjUd front trill produce ae much ee sere* pw tured. Thsss differences arise la pott from the fact that n ucb food is destroyed by being trampled underfoot; and again, that the conditions of growth do not exist so felly on eott* continually compressed by the trampling of animals. Another advantage ie gained by the opportunity afforded for a change of food, so that none be wasted. When oettle are kept in ceo), weii * soli leted stables, which are daily cleansed and wall supplied with pan wafer, they are found to thrive much better than okal M pasture, because they a re t fi ^ n ,tlitj|^ from the 01 effbett of sodden r? nUi a changes of weather are kept cooler and more comfortable during the heat of the day, and almost entirely freed from the annoyance of dies, are not liable to the worry of dogs, to being poisoned by noxious weeds, or injured by the use of unwholesomo water. They may be kept in a more thriving condition, because the . food may be regulated, whereas in pastures they have at times a greater amount than can be consumed, while at others the scorching sun wither* the vegetation, and renders the amount insutlicint for their proper support. Then, too, a field is liable to be overstocked, and prove incapable of yielding a supply sufficient for each individual of the herd. All these contingencies are guarded against where soiling is practiced. The quantity of milk yielded by a cow when first turned to pasture, the grass being young and succulent, will bo far more than will be received during the same period if the cow be soiled ; but later in the season, a greater amount and better quality of milk may be produced > by soiling. Tho objection that milk *o produced is not good, is entirely groundless, for so long as a cow is maintained in a thriving state, and fed upon wholesome food, tho secretions of milk must be perfectly healthy, certainly much more so than when the animal is goaded to a state of feverish excitement by constant attacks of fleas ; and to exercise a few bot.rs a day in a cool yard, with free permission to roam about and rub themselves, will i insure all that is necessary. Much exer- I cise is neither conducive to the health of the animal or tx> the secretion of milk.? The amount of exercise taken by the best milkers, when at pasture under favorable , circumstances, is very slight?much less than tho objectors to the system of soiling imagine. A glance at the composition of milk will support the assertion made above. The average composition of milk in 1.000 parts is exhibited in the following tablo : Water 840 Casein 40 Milk Sugar 45 Butter or oil 40 nt ? -? ? ? i no?|>naio tu lime 17 Phosphate of magnesia 4 Chloride of potassium- 0 i Common suit 2 Free soda 3 The analysis shows two classes of organic bodies, the nitrogenious and the non-nitrogenous the casein, and the mil . 5 sugar and butter. It is well known that milk is secreted from the food consumed ; ? also that the wastes ol the body bo restored throu ;h the same means. If the amount of exercise be increased beyond what is required to maintain a healthy condition, it is clear that s<>me of the food which should go to form the casein of milk will b6 appropriated to compensate , lor the waste of muscle, while tlmse elements going to form sugar of milk, and butter, will, to a great extent, be consumed in the act of respiration, thus lease; ing the amount of mi'k pioJuced. The quality and ouantity of inilk inav be very much modified by the kind and - amount of food given to the animal ; thus many fed with thiu slops, the milk will be poor and watery. If the food he dry and rich in nitrogen, the miik is rich er, and bdtter adapted to the production l' of cheese. The better quality of grasses, s stalks from sowen corn, carrots, and sugar 1 beets, when fed to cows, will cause them 1 to yield milk of oxcellent quality for but 5 teror checso making. s Every farmer niu-t?if not, lie should P be?awaro of the fact, that a change of food is highly conducive to the health of L> animals. Upon no arrangement other '* than soiling, can the most judicious course * of feeding no pursued by no other system^ p can the farmer vary the products so as to suit his acquirements. Some experience is required in order 1 to ascertain the most economical crops, and the most judicious method of using tliein when grown. In an article at a 1 future time wo will endeavor to give such suggestions as will enablo the farmer to adopt those plans best suited to his location and requirements. " Casiimkuk Coats.? In chronicling the , commencement on Tuesday last, of the . Annual Slate Fair ut New York, the , Journal of Commerce savs : litl ... . * - int> most interesting animal* 011 the grounds were three Cashmere goats, en. tered by Dr. Davis, of South Carolina.? , It ia iu the animal of which the CashI mere shawls are made, the value of which , do* not depend, as many suppose, upon r their rarity, but upon tho fact that the . material surpassoa every oilier like article , in its capacity for wenr. The Cashmere , goat was introduced into South Carolina r several years ago by Dr. Davis, who , caught them in Asia, forty-two days' ride, ^ on tho back of camels, from Constantinople. They hare la-en introduced by , him into North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee ami Florida, and are ' mixed with the native goat. The hair of i the animal, which is puro white, is most beautiful. It somewhat resembles in apI pearance the Huest portion of the fleece I of the Chi iese sheep, a few of which are , on exhibition. It is curly, soil in texture, and brilliant in appearance. The animal . is extremely delicat > in shape, though hardy. A sock made from the hair was shown with the goats. We learn that j ths meat is white and delicate, and is preferred in the parts of South Carolina where Uiey are reared to mutton. A , herd will prot**cl itself against dogs, which constitutes a great advantage over sheep in localities where dogsara trouble some.
