So, ye voiceless pair, Pass on in hope. For ye may build as firm Your silent altar in each other’s hearts, And catch the sunshine thro’ the clouds of time As cheerily, as though the pomp of speech Did herald forth the dead.—And when ye dwell Where tlowers fade not, and Death nd treasur’d tie Hath power to sever more,—ye need not' mourn The car sequestrate and the tuneless tongue; For there the eternal dialect of Love Is the free breath of every happy soul Hartford, Oct. 30. ]?.

Smith. TREATMENT OF CHILDREN. The moral effect of pampering the appetite of children by unceasing in dulgence, is most melancholy. Is the mother afraid of an explosion of passion, a bribe in the shape of a cake or tart, is promised as a peace-offer ing to the little body.

Ofcotton— the better species of which resem bles the best kind of Brazilian—more than 200,000 cwt. have been brought to market in one year, though the cultivation of this article lias not been pursued above seven years. The su gar cane is grown in Upper Egypt, and produces bet neon 40 and 50,000 cwt. one half of which circulates as merchandize, in a raw state. Were this article treated with proper skill and attention, it rhiglit not only be cultivated with much profit and to an immense extent, hut would be found, from its intrinsic excellence, far su perior to any W r est India produce for refiner's use. The raising of indigo lias been attempted on a considerable scale, and with great success, of late years; and of this product 60.000 oka, or 135,000 pounds, have been sold from one twelvemonth's growth.
