5 POETRY. TO THE FIRST SPRING BIRD. BT MRS. 1. H. SICOUB.NET. Blue Bird! on yon leafless three, Dost thou carol thus to me, "Spring is coming! Spring is here!" Say'st thou so, my birdie dear? What is that in misty shroud, Stealing from (he darken'd cloud? Snow! my friend it gathers round Deeply o'er the whiten'd ground, -Still thou singest, blithe and clear, "Spring 19 coming Spring is here!" Strik'st thou not too bold a strain) Winds are piping o'er the plain, Clouds are sweeping o'er the sky With a black and threat'ning eye, Urchins, by the frozen rill, Wrap their mantles closer still, Yon poor man, with doublet old, Dotb he shiver at the cold? XIntb tie not, a noKufUnt -Tell me, birdling, tell me true. Spring's a maid of mirth and glee, Rosy wreaths and revelry,- Hast thou woo'd some winged lave To a nest in verdant grove? . Sung to her, of greenwood bower, Sunny skies that never lower? Lur'd her with thy promise fair, Of a lot that knows no care? Prythee, bird, in coat of blue, Though a lover tell her true. Ask her if, when storms are long, She can sing a cheerful song When the rude winds rock the tree, If she'll closer cling to thee, Then the blasts that sweep the sky TJnappali'd shall pass thee by, Though thy curtain'd chamber show Sittings of untimely snow, Warm and glad thy heart shall be, .Love shall make it Spring for thee, a MISCELLANEOUS. j3 Quaker Woman's Sertnon. Dr. Friends: There are three things I very much wonder at; the first is, that children should be so foolish as to throw up stones, brickbats, and clubs in to fruit trees to knock down fruit; if they would let it alone it would fall itself. The second is that men should be so foolish and even so wicked as to go to war and kill one another; if they would only let one another alone, they would die of themselves: and the third and last thing that I wonder at, is, that young men should be so unwise as to go after the young women; if they would only stay at home the young women would come after them. Very Affecting. A farmer "going to get his grist ground at a mill, borrowed a bag of one of his neighbors. The poor man was somehow or other knocked into the water by the water-wheel, and the bag went with him. He was drowned; and when the melancholy news was brought to his wife, she exclaimed, "my gracious! what a fuss there'll be now a bout that bag." "Are you guilty, or not guilty?" said the clerk of arraigns to a prisoner the other day t "and sure now," said Pat, "what are ye put there for, but till find that out." Laming. A country apothecary said that Jefferson was a true prtriot. or alter sarvmg his country, he retired, like Cincinnatus, to 'opium cum digitalis !' Real Life. "Well wife, has the papei come yet?" "Yes, husband, and a bill came with it for one year's subscription." "Ahem! well, what kind of a paper have they got to-day, hey, pretty tolerable any thing new?" "Oh yes, got a glorious paper! It's chock full of shocking accidents, elopements, robberies. murders, and suicides, and homicides, and parricides, and aud besides there is a good love story on the first page, and a lot of deaths and marriages. I've read it through and through. Shall I go and fetch it for you?" "Never mind now, wife but what did you say in the first instance, a bill came with it!" "Yes, husband, a bill; it is in the upper draw er." "That is the most important item in the paper, wife; I'll sit right down and forward the money, and then I'll read the paper." To the Ladies. A good wife should be like three things; which three things she should not be like. I. She should be like a snail to keep with in her own doors, but she should not be like a snail to put every thing she has upon her back. II. She should be like an Echo, to speak when spoken to but she should not be like an Echo, to have the last word. III. She should be like a Town clock al ways to keep time and regularity but she should not be like a town clock to speak so loud that all the town may hear her. A Green Horn from the country stepped into a menagerie, to view the beasts, birds, and creeping things congregated, among which an ourang outang particularly struck his atten tion. Several gentlemen were conversing about the animal, one of whom expressed the opinion that it was a lower order of the hu man species. Jonathan did not like this idea, and striding up to the gentlemen, expressed his contempt for it thus: "Pooh! pooh! he's no more human species than I be!" Retort. A little lawyer appearing as evi dence in one of the courts, was asked by a gigantic counsellor what profession he was of, lawyer?" said Brief, "why I can put you in my pocket !" "Very likely you may," rejoin ed the other, "and if you do, you will have more law in your pocket than you ever had in your head." How to get a good one. An Irishman was once brought up before the magistrates for marrying six wives. The magistrates asked him how he could be so hardened a villain ? "Please your worship," says Paddy, "I was trying to get a good one." AGRICUL.TUUALT MANURING WITH ROTTEN LOGS AND BRUSH. Correspondence of the Farmer's Register." Upon the testimony of some of the most respectable and veritable gentlemen of Hali fax county, Virginia, I shall proceed to give you an account of the remarkable effects of a new and rare manure, as exhibited by an ex periment in that county, a few years since. The manure above alluded to, is only rare as to the manner of its application, for in old Virginia it very much aboundeth. The experi ment was as follows : A gentleman cut down the pine growth which had covered a piece of land, exhausted and turned out of cultivation by his father or grand father. As is usual, he suffered the logs and brush to lie upon the land the first summer. In the fall and winter suc ceeding, he commenced his preparations for a crop of corn, by running two strokes with a large two-horse plough in the same furrow, one turning to the right, and one to the left. This trench thus made, was filled with the logs and brush of the pine trees next convenient to it, which cleared a place for the second furrow; and so on, until this log and brush material was all consumed. W lth mis passed over half the land. The balance was simply flushed with the two horse plough, and well manured from the stable and farm pen. The crop grown on the beds, manured in the hill with pine logs and brush, was not only the best corn of the two, but was unusually rich in its growth, and heavy in its production. The owner of the corn was induced, from its re markably luxuriant appearance, to pull up one of the logs, during the growing of the crop, to see how it was that such vigor was imparted to it; he found the countless number of little thread-like roots, which mainly contribute to the supply of the vegetable, to have perforated the water-soaked and partly decayed trunks and limbs of the pine trees, buried below. Here, Mr. Editor, is a fountain of manure, which, in its general diffusion through our State, and in its practical good effects, as de monstrated above, bids fair to rival the boast ed marl beds of lower Virginia; and that which has been regarded as an indication of poverty and decay in our lands, may be made the instrument of their restoration and recove ry. Your obedient servant, T. CARRINGTON. JVtne! Not the nine muses, dear reader; but the matter-of-fact fellow, number 9. This number 9, after all, is not without poetry and romance. Indeed, sometimes he is a very comical rhyming character, and appears to de light in performing half-a-dozen parts in one piece on the same stage. It may be known to every learned Theban that all the products of the figure 9 produce the same result by addition of the combina tions. For instance: 999 9 9 9 9 9 9 2345 6 78 9 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 Add up any of the above results and it will produce the primitive number 9. It will also be seen that the products are formed by the transposition of the figures; as for instance beginning at contrary ends: 81, 18, 72, 27, &c. No. 9 is one of those great characters who can go through all the changes of life and bu siness, and still preserve its unity and inte grity. Parallel of the Isexes. Man is strong Woman is beautiful. Man is daring and con fident Woman is diffident and unassuming. Man is great in action Woman at home. Man talks to convince Woman to persuade and please. Man has a rugged heart Wo man relieves it Man has science Woman taste. Man has judgment Woman sensibi lity. Man is a being of justice Woman of mercy. ORCHARD GRASS. This grass is worthy of being cultivated on ac count of its uncommon luxuriance. Horses, cows, and sheep, eat it readily, and it is valuable on ac count of its excellent after-feed. It affords an abundant crop, springs early, and grows fast, makes excellent hay, and yields an abundance of seed, which is not easily shaken out. It is a hardy grass. found highly useful in most loamy soils, and thriving under the shade of trees. It comes early, is soon matured, and continues green until late in the season as clover does. If intended for fodder, it should be cut while yuong and tender.
