Lines on the Death of Jlrs. EIIaT. SJcLcod
, Scarce four months firora her marrige eve,
-r Ere spectre death claimed her his bride.
They bore her to her narrow bed,
And heaped the soft mould on her breast ;
And tears by loving friends were shed
,Above her silent home of rest,
" May gentle angels 'round it keep,
A holy watch where now she sleeps.
She came unto our bourns fair,
As one that came of angel birth ;
And ere grim time her heart did sear,
The faded floweret slept in earth.
Bright scenes soon pass from mind away,
But grief will e'er its impress stay.
r '
And one there was who mourned her fate,
For she was his own chosen bride ;
"And as the bird that's lost its mate,
He wandered on life's busy tide,
But ere the winter's wind was spent,
His spirit to its maker went.
And one is left a mother sad,
To breast alone life's stormy wave ;
And mourn the only child she had,
Which sleepeth now within the grave.
Ah ! death why didst thou take the
To plant above in Eden bowers.
There is no stately monument,
No stone is reared above the grave ;
" To speak of many virtues blent,
In one we tried so hard to save.
, But there the Rose shall soonest bloom,
And shed its fragrance o'er her tomb.

Messrs. Branson & Farrar, Publish
ers, of this city, have laid on our table
a neat parapbJet copy of the Journal of
the last North Carolina Annual Con
ference, printed by Messrs. Nichols,
Gorman & Neathery, job printers, of
this city. Besides the regular proceed
, ings of ths Conference, it has a gocd
deal of valuable matter in the appen
dix. In the bounds of the Conference,
there are 30,362 white members, and
5,074 colored, making an increase of
2,307 white members, and a decrease
of 2,013 colored members. The de
crease of colored members is owing to
the large number who have joined the
African M. E. Church. There are also
178 local preachers, and 10,336 Sun-
r.-day School scholars.
Some of our cotemporaries- have
published the above as the number of
31ethodists in the Stats. This is an
error. Besides the North Carolina
Conference in this State, the Virginia,
llolston and South Carolina Conference
occupies portions of it. Hence, before
the war, there were about 70,000 Meth-
dist communicants in the entire State,
and about 500 local preachers. Per
haps at the present time, owing to
deaths during the war, and the number
of colored members who have left the

; African M. E. Church, there aie at
present, not more than 60,000 commun-

Sir: In replay to your inquiry of our
experuence in tne usp oi your lmpioveu
Poiulrette. purchased of you for this
year's Cotton Crop, we would beg leave to
say that the present season has been one
quite unfavorable to the action of all fer
tilizers. Several kinds of Manures were
used ly us, with the exception of your Pou
dretle, with little or no effect to the crop
Where the Poudretle was applied il gave near
half a bile more per acre, and caused the
therefore recommend the same as a con-
centrated manure for the growth of Cotton,
as well as improvement of the soil.
Yours very respectfully,

Ijt is unsurpassed as a; Fertilizer, being
equally, if not more stimulating to the first

contains properties which make it perma
