to her it the mountain side, [From the Edinburgh Maguzine.'] MARY ALLEN -A TALE. Oh! thou, who sleep'st where l^zel bands entwine The vernal E russ witii paie? violets drest: I would, sweet girl ! thy humble bed were nnue, And mine thy calm and enviable rest : Vor never more, by human ills opprest, Shall thy soft spirit fruitlessly repine ! • * Chau lotte Smith. The simple tale which I am now about to relate is one of those which sheds a con secrating light on the scene which wit nessed it ; and though its simple incidents happened within the memory of man, they breathe so much of the spirit of the " old en time," that to me, at least, they are in vested with a considerable portion of that sacredness, which only remote antiquity can, in its wildest extent, bestow. Strath-Almond is one of the most lone ly of the mountain defiles which inter vene between the high grounds ot the north of this kingdom. The summits of the hills which encircle it, are covered over entire ly with black moss and heath, and their sides, except in a few plots, where some hardy evergreens contrive to strmrffle out a melancholy existence, are nothing but successive ridges of bare rock. The only spots where the hand of cultivation is at all visible, are here and there on the banks of the wild brawling stream, which ram bles along the bottom of the defile ; and these are rare, being only a few acres ot arable ground around the pastoral huts which are scattered, at long intervals, at the bottom ot the hills. Mary Allan was an only daughter ol one of the inhabitants of tins mountain re treat, and was considered, as well Irom her superior education, as from the giace and beauty of her person, the female or nament of the valley. John Allan, her lather, was the wealthiest and most res pectable shepherd, or rather farmer, .n tin Strath, and Mary, therefore, was not ne glected by the rustic gallants, who were at all aware of the value of abeautilul The onlv er. wife anil a bountiful dowry, youth, however, who had made any im pression on Mary's heart was \\ dliani Lee, then a farm servant of her father's, but who latterly exchanged • ' Following the plough upon the mountain side, h-y for the more heroic occupation of follow-Alone ■ ing the arms of his native country, in the 1 ," plains of the new world. The cause oljtenance, Id change was his aspiring to the hand of I min ami ma, den, sogenerally 'fhe marked civilities payed by the lowest of her father's servants, could not fail to attract the attention. as w.dlas to excite the alarm, of the youth- ness ful suitors, who had an eve to John Allan's t"«l docks, as well as his daughter's person ; sarJS ïïïSfâiï»Â" he opportunity of a recruiting partv, who paraded a neighbouring town, without ta P „ leave of his mistress, he accepted the kiim's bounty, and set sail for the desti uatMin of his regiment, from which, it is believed, tm never afterwards returned. |"> The errief of Mary for this sudden andi unexpected departure of her lover, was al- i most insuppmtable ; but she was obliged to cherish it in silence and secrecy. Her suitorshaving got so easily rid of their dangerous rival, lost no time in plying all their efforts together fettered in the bonds of matrimony. Her father, fond of her to (listraction, was too anxious to see his dau.'hter well settled in life, to be long in o nq.lving with the unremitted solicita- 1' so many lovers ; and at last she was united, at his wish, and contrary to her ow n inclinations, to one of the young who was considered rather opulent, ami who had been most active in pcrsecu tfo.' the unhappv William Lee. Many of the old women in the glen still remember the bridal of Mary Allan ; and often have Si its ceremonies dolefully ( haunted over by a venerable granda, ne, tor the in s, ruc tion of a group of little urchins, who "erly crowding round a wintry iIe. side, with gaping earnestness, to lis ^ . * o^o "1° ne'er'could think it a gude sign," kin worn ea a gude said old Margaret Alison to me, the last bny>=h » . .• \i a after time I went, to inqmre respecting . jj .^jo, only survit mg child, 1 ne « Sflfotant it was owre gude a si B n, sa s , ..

AgvicwWwvnt. ; Farmer. From the America CHEAT, or sometimes called chess. Essex County, N. Jersey. ith'e^rom uiifavnnrabieAilventurers of wheat, or Mr. Skinner—I have been much puz zled bv reading several publications in tlie American Farmer, on the subject of the production of cheat ; and as to its origin, whether it was produced from seed of its metamorphose ol wheat to own species, or a into a weed called cheat, owing to some; unknnwn enujw, £-*4. «rftr.r£S aiuc rt» u'PHil utvintr never lieaiu of suen a utiu lunongst the wheat,or other crops of grain, i New England, or in the state of New York or New Jersey, in all of w hich states and country I have'been long acquainted. But from the last American Fanner, a plan is proposed for ascertaining the ori gin of tL same cheat, from which 1 am led to suppose that it is the same trou-jS;^. ii I j I *, • ai.,, T ..,,. u n f 4 |i(>u)l blesome weed, tliat in tlie p.uts or uu. country above alluded to. is known chess, often growing amongst wheat, anddng in fact, other winter crops. 1 claim to 1 know something of this troublesome weed,j«a* fre ii en.ly wen growing amongst our wheat. I also know that the generally received opinion, respecting its origin is, hat where clean seed wheat is sown on land liable to he winter killed, as it is'he termed bv farmers, from hard frosts i„ , ' ... i r.y. iititm nni ^ubiuarv and March, when there is noi snow enough to cover the ground and pro tect the wheel plants, that an abundance o chess is found grow in«; with the wheat.

How these should turn wheat into chess, I have no pretensions of deciding. As to chess when produced,! am confident, that it will from its seed re-produce chess, the same as any It grows up with a slender hard stalk, and with a bushy head, not un like orchard grass, and about as tall: the seed is long ami slender, more like oats than wheat. From this imperfect descrip tion, your farmers will easily know whe-the ther your cheat and our chess is the same weed. A farmer who does not sow more than 20 or 30 acres of wheat, raav easily clean his ii Id of this pernicioiisjall other weed. . A.
