OT BIB B. BOLWBB LTTTOB. There ia no death ! The stare go dowa To rise upon soma fairer shorej And bright in Heaven's Jeweled crown They shine for evermore. There U bo death t The dot I we tread Shall change beneath the cummer ihowera To goldon grata or bellow (rait, Or rainbow-tinted floweiJ. ,. The granite rocks disorganise To feed the hungry moea they hear; The foreat learea drink dally lMa From one the rlewleea air. There la n? death I The ledrcs may fall. The ftowem may fhde and para away; ~ They ooly wait through wintry hoars The coming of the May. There ! no death ! An angel form Walks o'er the earth with silent tread j Me hears our heet lored things away; And then We call them " dead." Me learea our hsartsall desolate, He plucka our fairest, sweetest lowers; Transplanted into bliss, they now Adorn immortal bowers. The bird-like voice, whose joyous tones Made glad theae scenes of alu and atrlfe, Sings now an everlasting song Amid the tree of life. And where he shea a smile too bright, Or heart too pure for taint end rioo, He bears it te that world of light, To dwell in Peradios. Dora unto that undying life, They leevo us both to eotne again ) With joy wo welcome them?the same, Except in sin and pain. * And eror near us, though unseen, Tbe dear Immortal spirits trend ; For all the boundless universe Is life?there are ao dead.

Moixa Cotton.?A specimen of this excellent variety or tho cotton plant has been on exhibition for several days at the house of Messrs. Greer ?fc Lake in this city. The stalk is of medium height, but it exceeds in quantity of fruit any 'specimen which we have overseen. It was grown by onr enterprising citizen, Judge J. W. Knott, at his residence upon the Bnburbs of the city. It is stated, upon reliable authority, that the prico of seven- ' ty cents per pound was refused in ' Savannah last season for a bale of this cotton. It is equal in staple to t h e finest Sea island cotton, whilst tho yield per acre exceeds , it. Wo understand that it was ( grown by Judgo Knott as an ex- ] ncrimcnt. The results so far are , highly satisfactory. Ho has but | six acres of it in cultivation, and i some wise men estimate that he j will pack two and a half bags to j the acre. We bog Mr. lvnott not \ to be making any such ridiculous | crop as that. Twelve hundred < pounds of this cotton to the acre would be worth, say $840. < [Macon 2 elcyraph. , R*!TTuckt promises that ere long onr belles shall not have to ' send to India for cashmere shawls. < The Angora goat is now sncoess- ' fully bred in this country, and of 1 the 3,000 or 4,000 wool-bearing < goats of the best breeds, Kentucky claims the largest share.

Meta Victoria Fuller, in a sisterly way, thus talks to country girls: The farmers' daughters are soon to he the life ? well m the pride of this country?a glorious race of women which no other land can ibow. I seek not to flatter them ; for before they Can become this they will have to make an earnest effort for one or two kinds. There are some who deprecate their candition,tkey demand more consideration than tlioy merit. A want of intelligence upon all the subjects of the day ana of a refined education is more excusable in a connKrir nrii-1 in ?? mm j gill) VUVSO uajo VI mwiiJT books and newspapers. Many girls are diseonraged because they cannot be sent 'away from home to boarding school; bnt men of superior mini and knowledge of this world, wonld rather have tor wives women well and properly educated at home. And this education can be had whenever the desire is not wanting. A taste for reading does wonders; an earnest thirst after knowledge is to attain certain a sweet draught from the Pierian Spring. There is a fanner's daughter in this very room in which I am writing?a beautiful, refined and intelligent women?in whose girlhood books were not so plenty as now, and who obtained her education under difficulties which would have discouraged any bnt one who had a true love for study. Confederate Heroism.?Whatever else written about the late war may be true or false, the following from the pen of Qon. J. A. Early, or Virginia, will never be disputed 5 I believe that the world has never produced a body of men snperi* or in courage^ patriotism and endurancef to the private soldiers of the Confederate armies. I have repeatedly seen those soldiers submit, with cheerfulness to privations and hardships which wonld appear to be almost incredible ; ana the wild cheers of o n r brave men, (which were so different from the studied hurrahs of the Yankees,) when their thin lines sent back opposing hosts of Federal troops, staggering, realing and flying have often thrilled every fibre i n my heart. I have aeon, with my own eyes, rarged, barefooted an?i hungry Conlederate soldiers perform deeds which, if performed in days of yore by mailed warriors in glitc tering armor, would have inspired the harp of the minstrel ana the pen of the poet. A Noble Boy.?A boy of fifteen, in Black Law county, Ohio, whose father died three rears ago, leaving his widow arnf son an eighty acre farm burdened with a $1,000 mortgage, has taken whole and solo charge of tire farm, hiring help only in seed time, harvest, ana threshing, paid off the mortgage, purchased a harvester, a sulky plow, a wagon and 6at a of harness, besides an eighty-dollar sewing machine for bis mother, and is uow out of debt. The lad besides attends school three months in each winter. Advantage OF LAW.? A youn^ man who studied law in Connecticut, became acquainted with the following facts, which are very remarkable, though not very singular : A farmer cut down a tree so very near the boundary line of his [arm, that it was doubtful whother it belonged to him or his neighbor. The neighbor, however, claimed the tree, and prosecuted the man who cut it for damages. The case was continued from court to court. Time was wasted, temper soured, And temper lost; but the case was finally gained by the prosecutor. The last my friend knew of the transaction was the man who "gained the causo,*' came to the lawyer's office to execute a deed on Lis whole farm, which he had been compelled to sell to pay his costs! Then, houseless, and homeless, he jotild thrust his hands into his pockets apd triumphantly exclaim, 4 I've beat him 1" Wirr is a candle-maker the voret and most hopeless of men f because all his works are wicked, ind all his wicked works are ironght to light.
