Flitting through the passnge way I _ Smiling sweetly, hrighf ntfd gay, Stepping lightly, little Mae' Came and stole my heart away. Roses bloom upon her oheek Under eyes demurely meek; But I never dare to ?eek To gather roses from her cheek ; E'en the thought would make tbem bloom Blushing crimson, quick they'd come Crowding, till there wa? not room For another rose to bloom. She has tender violet eyes When in ambush Cupid lies, Whence he issues to surprise Me, when gazing in tboso eyes; And they beam with radiant light As do stars on Summer's night, Still retaining pure and bright Gleams they caught from heavenly light. Lilies blossom on her brow Pure as is the driven snow, White as angel robe's they blow On her classic marble brow; Down her neck so soft and fair, On her bosom, they are there, Gleaming on her shoulders bare Are the lilies pure and fair. Every flower that blooms in May, Where the fairless love to play Till they fly the coming day, Join9 to deck my lovely Wat. Flitting through the passage way, Smiling sweetly, bright and gay, Stepping tightly* little Mae Come and stole my heart away. Jroing Jleaimtg. AN INGENIOUS BUT DISLOYAL S. CAROLINIAN. Apropos to the recent grant of the application for a'renewal" of a patent of an easychair, invented by a citizen of Sooth Carolina, the New Orleans Defta gives the fol-* lowing story, as quite correct, winter before last: Judge Evans, the late Senator from South Carolina, was a very earnest, sibcer$ and venerable old gentleman, who under an exceedingly talld and elerical exterior, concealed some very deoided points of character, among which wan ?n intedse State pride and a- strong basis in favot of the institutions, and even the weaknesses and defects of his old State. To him, Soufh Carolina was the beau ideal of everything admirable, great and good. Her errors and , defects were, to him, virtues and endow* meats. And, though it was not in the nature of the gOQd old man to hate anybody or anything, he cherished a decided and very" South Caroliniaui^h repugnance to the iosti tntions, ideas aodenstoms of New EnghgdJ For any Sonth CaroRmrfn to possess any of the qualities, the accomplishments i>r tastes of the people of hat section, was, ip -the view of the old Senator, a serious breaoh of * faith and duty to his honored and beloved old Palmetto State. Now, it happened that Judge Evans was applied to by a young South Carolinian, who had.invented some ingenious meohanieal contrivance whioh he desired to have patented. The young applicant introduced himself as the son of an old friend and feHow parishoner of the Judge, and begged his" favor and aid in obtaining his letters patent. The venerable Senator, raising his- spectacles, and fixing his eyes in wonder and amazement at the ingenious young Carolinian, in his mild but emphatic tone, interrogated him as follows: 'You are the son of Colonel H , of.St. Parish, Sooth Carolina, who was bore in the said parish T 'I am, sir,' promptly and proudly responded the young gentleman. 'The grandson jef General H , who served under General Sumter in the Revolutionajy "War?' 'Yes sir,' was the prompt reply. 'Your mother was the daughter of Mrs. Nanoy , who set fire to her Mansion id the involution to prevent the-British occupying it.' 'Yes, sir,' enthusiastically exclaimed the representative of one of Carolina's proudest families. / A ?J *>am ' flio wnfrmfirt AM *AUU JUU, WUUUUCU U1U puutviiu viv> Senator, 'have been educated at the academy in and instructed in the principles, duties and knowledge "to your position, your birth and family?' < Yes, sir,' modestly remarked the now impatient youth. 'Then sir,' exclaimed the Judge, in a tone of haughty firmness and indignation, 'how dare you to turn your back upon all the traditional principles, and ideas, and customs of your State, upon the sentiments and principles of your family, your ancestors ar>4 your countrymen, and degrade yourself to the level of a common wooden nutmeg Yankee, by inventing a machine ?' The ingenious, but alas ! high-born young Carolinian was so affected by the forcible manner in which his Senator presented the enormity of his conduct, that he abandoned his application, and returned to South Carolina with a view of standing for Congress in his District at the next election. The Cockney's Baggage.?Sut Lovingood sends the following to an exchange.? A full-blooded Cockney who is now taking notes on the United States, chanced to be on one of our southern trains, when a 'run oif took place, and a general mixing up of things was the consequence. Cockney's first act, after straightniDg out his collapsed hat, was to raise a terrible 'ubbub about 'is baggage, and among other things, wanted to know 'hif rail roads hin Hamerica wasn't responsible for baggage stolen, smashed or missing V 'Well, yes,' said the Tennessean addressed. 'But it is a deuce of a job to get your Pa7-' 'Why so ?' 'They will perhaps admit your claim, but then they, offer to fight you for it; that's a standing American rule. There is the man employed by this road to fight for baggage,' pointing to a huge bewhiskered train-hand, who stood by with his sleeves rolled up, 'I think, if my memory serves me, he has foughc for sixty-nine lots, an' blamed if he hain't icon 'cm all. They gave him the empty trunks for his pay, and he is making a hundred dollars a month in selling trunks, valises, carpet-bags, and satchels. Have you lost any baggage V 'No, no, not hat hall. Hi just hasked to learn your custom hin case hi did loose haoy. Hi don't thinklx'W loose mine, 'owcver.' Here the train band, who overheard the talk, stepped up, ttnxi inquired, 'Have you lost anything 7 'Ho no-! ho no !' replied Cockney, with unusual energy. 'Can't I sell you a trunk 7 'Thank you, sir. No," I think-1 have a supply.* Well, if you dq either loose baggage, or wanVto buy a trunk, already marked, deuced if I ain't the ipan tocaHor>?' It is needless to say that instead of raising 'Cain generally; as Ctftkney had been doing, he betook him to zealously writing notes on American customs during. the .remainder of the delay. Probably be indited something fully equal, to the London 1 imes Georgia railroad story. J?- 'How do you do,.my dear Mrs. Townl^y ? Have you heard the news about Mrs. Xuddy ? . . 'Why,-really, no.

'Now, you won't say uothin about ifey will you?' . _ ^ 'No, I'll never open nay mouth about it?= .never. Hope to die this mirfljte if I do.' 'Well, if you'ir believe it, Mrs. Fuddy told me last night that Mrs. Dodd told her that her sister's husband was told by a person who dreamed it, that Mrs. Trouble's eldest daughter was gwine to be marriecfto somebody Y~ After the above conversation Mrs. ToodleV little Bobby took a prece-of chalk from his trousers pocket aud weRt out and wrote on the garden fence: Let ffien and women dre9s and sport, For Dod ha9 made'urn so; Let girls and t>oys levc and COurt, For 'tis their nature ioo ; But mamma, you abound neyer let Suph tattling paseieus rise ; Your litjle mouf wn's never rtade * To ieUsvoh whopping he*. ? ??? 8S* 'Ah, Pat, Pat!'said a school mistress to a thick-headed nrchin, info whose-muddy brain she was attempting to beat the alphabet, 'I'il afraid you wilt nevcrlearn anything.

'Jest as you please,' quietly returned Pat, 'fool or blookhead?it's no matter as loDg as [ yer free to own it.' t ??" A Spf.cialJuror.?At one of our courts. Judge S on the bench, a number of jurors were examined as to thoir feelings on the subject of convictiqg a prisoner on 'circumstantial evidence.' The jurors very naturally wished to be excused, and tried every pretext to gehoff. One of the specials, following, in the wake of several of those who had been examined by the Judge tried bis best to avoid a seat (m the jury. But Judge S. rtieant to hold, after tht? wise, but failed, 'Would n'^ycm believe a man guilty if you . saw him running- from the murdered man 'No sir; he might be scared at seeing the body.' ~ * 'Well, suppose you wore to go euirtoroorrofr morning and sjSO the 'grass and' ground all wet, wouldn't you uonsidef it'sufficient evidence th?t there *had been a rain during the night V The witness staggered a little, but recoveriog -said : ~ 'No Judge, it might have been a heavy liexc !' Rfch Joke.?The Norfolk Day Book, tells a good joke about a party of fburfast young men in that city who hauled a baiter's wagon'one night lately, a mile or two into the country, for mischief. After being fag ged ouf, they determined to end their devilment by upsetting the wagon in a pond.? Imagine their astonishment, however, when just as they were about to upturn it an unknown voice from the inside said : 'Hold on gentlemen. Suppose you-take this wagon baek to the city again,?and when stillfurther, officer Nelson, of the police jumped out and collared the ringleader. After a short parley the officer again got in, the bloods hitched themselves up, hauled him back to town, each paid a fine and cost, and resolved that hereafter they will be a little more careful in planning their tricks that no police officer ever hears them/ One of the Lawyers.?Governor S-?, of South Carolina, was a sple did lawyer, and could talk a jury nut of their seven senses. He was e?pecially noted forhis success in criminal cases, always clearing bis client. He was once counsel for a man accused of horse stealing. He- made a long, eloquent, and touching speech. The jury retired, but returned in a few moments, and proclaimed the man not guilty. An old acquaintance stepped up to the prisoner and said: 'Jem, the danger is past; and now, honor bright, didu'tyou steal that horse?' To which Jem replied, 'Well, Tom, I've all along thought I took that horse, but since I've heard the Governor's speech, I don't believe I did. Canvassing for Votes in England. ] ?How would our politicians like undertaking such a canvas as that referred to below, in place of making their usual 'stump speeches' before election ? 'During the personal canvass of Mr. Garnett among the electors of Salford,' says the Gateshead Observer, he and his friends, calling at a huckster's shop found only a i boy, who, having learnt their business, went I to the foot of the stairs and called to his j mother (who was making beds,") 'mother, I here's a mon as wants vo'r wote for him t'be J a Parliament man.' 'Well,' shouted the j J mother, 'tell him thy fayther's not in, but ' j if he'll chalk his name on the counter, we'll j inquire into his character.' MiM Punch says: 'To find out whom a j child loves, make it a present, and notice to whom it is eager to show that present exult; ingly. To find out who a woman hates, do | exactly the same thing.' mmhhuhmbhbhbbh ? Jfamer's .geptlinentj 1 1 i THE TRUE SYSTEM OF FARMING, 11 Trying to\fojnush, is n copimon error into which the farmer often falls. His grest ea- 1 gerness in striving to be rich, js doubtless , the cause of his erroe. He is ambitious and energetic, and forms his plans on a large scale, too often, perhaps, without counting . the cost/ He iuyfi a large farirf sod wantsto be called a "forg^- farmer," without understanding or considering the true elements that constitute a real farmer. He fancies < the greatness of%6bat profession; as is too of- I ten the comraop estimate, to be in proportion to the number of aeres, not to say cultivated, but embraced within the boundaries of his domain. The fact is now. being spread a- : broad, that a large farm does not make a man either rich, contented or happy, but'on the contrary, the reverse tf nil these, unlera well tilled, when his labo? is well rewarded by ample orops and fair success in the vari" , ous departments in. which he is engaged.? Mo farmer can realize the full benefit of hjs profession without adopting a thorough system of culture. His success, commensurate -to his wishes, always depends upon the rafoner in which' he prepares his grounds, plants.his seed, -and rears his stock. Neither-of these departments?which may be considered the cardinal ODes of his profession?will take care of themselves. The soil * j may ho rich, but it needs culture. His seed may be sown, but it should be in due time, and always on soil well prepared and of a suitable quality for the prod.uctiott of the crop desired. His stock must be constantly cared for?it derives its thrift from'the soil, and sends again to that soil the sustenance 'it requires; but this is not done in a loose or hap-hazard way. The farmer's care is re- . quired, and all his better judgment must be exercised in keeping up this system of reciprocal benefits that may be realized by every intelligent and industrious former. Thorough cultivation and systematic attention to all parts Qf his b.nsinesss is indispensable to a good degree of success, 'fho very corper-stcne to this whole*system of farming, is to do what you do thoroughly? * * a.. J - - d mona nature will not ne creaieq, auu uo TCI pTM I J full returns to the half-way work that is practiced by vastly too many calling tbemj.selves farmers. If the land lias been worn, [ the extent of that exhaustion, and the.food, required, most be first considered. . When ascertained, the full meaeufe of these ire-" qnirements must be given, to bring out full . retujns. If the farmer has but a small stock, and consequently but a small amount of maj aiure to replenish his landr it is obvious that but a small-farm can be supplied with it j and good judgment at once dictates .that to oulitivate properly a large farm, artificial fertilizers must be used if good crops arc obtained ' And so with the labor: two men cannot suitably till one hundred itcres of land, when, the'-labor of two men, and perhaps four,, might be profitably emplcyed on thejseven}yEve antes. ... This is the great eTroi in farming. Two men Strive to do what four hardly do, and thus thousands of acres are run over, half tilled, and producing half crops. The land is run over till worn out, sustaining, year after year, the unnatural tax, till its energies are entirely exhausted, and it fails even to yield a fbeble erop, because-its life fjs worn out.. Much of the soil in Virginia, and Oth> 'cr-Southern States, is a type of this. Thousands of acres arA lying entirely useless and exhausted, and will ever remain 90, till the first.elemctits of its power are returned tp it.* This process is fast going on in- many of (he Western States. The soil is-'treated like an inexhaustible mine; the tillers crying, give, ' *5" in o faxrr r/Mir? ifc will h&VG glVC, glYU i HIIj IU u-rwr. j .., , : nothing to give. -The bopst ef the West is, targe farm? and large fields-ofrgraiQ; plow, sow and reap, is ^he- business of western farmers, drawing oat the" verf life of the soilj-seqdiog away in the heavy exports that are constantly gomgonward, without returning to the soil the food if requires to make it productive. The light that is being spread abroad on this subject,-is beginning to correct this practice to some extent, but in most instances very little, is returned to the soil to.keep it hlive, -till, after several years of continual . cropping, it manifests signs of exhaustion, and ultimate barrenness. When tillers of the soil understand their true interests, they .wiH cultivate no more land than they can do well? Fifty acres of land for tillage, brought to a higlf state of cultivation, pays better thau one hundred run over in the way that many do.?Jrfferson Fanner. How to Conqurer Vrcious Cows and. Horses.?I care not how vicious or upmanageable the horse or cow, may "have become I can conquor them by the application of a strong rope or chain just back of the fore legs and twisting in a good lever until they yield fully. Baulkyborses may be conquered in this manner so as to need no whipping and ft is more humane than olubbing them: or cutting them up with torturing whips.? And a horse once conquered in -this manner will not turn to his triok with the same driver as readily when overcome by whipping or mauling. ' Cows may be conquered iq the same manner and broken ot^he habit of kicking, vory readily. One of my neighbors had a very vicious cow, last spring, which they had failed in milking after the most determined efforts to succeed. I happened to hear the fact one day, and told them how to manage , .her; when, lo! no more trouble was experienced. In the course of the summer they have occasionally lain across her back, when , she has manifested any .inteution of returning to old habits. Effectual as this manner | of overcoming vicious propensities, it is I more humane than any other in which force is used. This is also a very effectual manner of subduing horses ugly iu shoeing. The smith J can make the wildest mustang stand peaoei ably by usiog the chain and lever, and the lesson will not soon be unlearned.
