BRUNSWICK, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 30, 1337. POETRY. [From the Hartford Times.] The following lines were suggested on hear ing a Continen'aler refuse his grandson the Fan of his old Queen’s Arm, alleging it had been thro’ the French war, and tlie war of tlie Revolution; and should not be used to shoot birds. Wake not the slumbering thunderer From his grim and silent dream, Till the battle-word again is heard Above the eagle’s scream ; Then take it from its high repose— ’Twill point towards its country’s foes. The God of battles breathed upon That gun in days of yore, And its bayonet has oft been wet In a heart a hero bore ; Twas on the plains of Abraham, \Y here Wolfe expired ; where fell Montcalm. When in our infant settlements The Tomahawk was cast, The forest Chief, like a wither'd leaf, lias fell before its blast: Twas handed down from sire to son, As the gilt of a high and mighty one. When freedom's stripes and stars were spread Against the battle storm, At dead of night, on Hunker's height, It stood in awful form ; There, pointhig to the skies, its frown Seemed challenging the lightnings down. On every bloody battle field It flashed in deadly breath, And when it spoke through clouds of smoke. The hailing word was—Death ! In Freedom’s cause its aim was true, And these old limbs have borne it through. Waste not upon the fowls of air A shot of that old gun, It has earned a name, upon the field of fame In the War of Washington : But when my country calls again, Then bear it to the battle plain. M I Mi € E Is Ez .4 X Y . Tea, Coffee, and Tobacco. Three j plants at this moment connect three dif ferent quarters of the globe, which for a-' ges would have known little of each oth er without them. China is connected with England by scarcely any other link than her tea ; for three hundred years tobacco was the sole link between Eng land and the Western world, and Arabia is to t! is hour scarcely hound to us hut i by her coffee. Such are the slender but powerful sources of national connexion. The discovery of colfee was not made' until the latter part of the thirteenth cen tury, and, like any other great discovery,; it was the result of chance, adopted by necessity. An Arab, the Scheykh Omar, fell under persecution in his own country;’ he and his disciples fled to a mountain in the province of Yemen, where, in the de sert, all usual food failed him; a colfee betsy there grew wild, and the distressed refugee, as it was too hard for him to mas ticate', tried its effects in boiling ; he drank the liquor, found himself revived, and made it immortal. Yet recommend ed as it was by its refreshing properties, its spontaneous growth, ami still more, such is the absurdity ol mankind, by the example of a fool or knave, who called himself a saint , coffee took upwards of two centuries to make its way into the world. Even in its own country it was as dishonored as a prophet among his kindred ; and near as Egypt was, it was not till the third century from its discov ery th t it insinuated itself into the sober potations of the Egyptians, It is seldom that the world is indebted to superstition for any thing except carnivals and curdials; but the follies of the Arab devotees in the land ol Pharaohs, who win golden o pinions of men by extravagances that would degrade the mules they ride, were the first parentage of Egyptian coffee drinking. Those wretched people,spend ing half their nights in watching, and half their existence in mortifying the wither ed flesh on their tawny bodies, found cof fee essential to keep their bodies and souls together. The Turk uext adopted it. It suited his laziness, and his stupidity. The showy barbarian wanted nothing but tt> bncco to complete the curse which, to the slave and to the sensualist, turns all the enjoyments of the senses into evil. Tobacco came to add perpetual intoxica tion to his catalogue of willlul calamities. It is a remarkable instance of the perver sity of the human will when left to itself, that while coffee, with all its singular pow ers of cheering the mind and refreshing the nerves, took nearly four hundred years to make itself known in Europe, and w hile the potatoe is scarcely more than coming into use in a large portion of the Continent, tobacco took but littie more than a half a dozen years to be known as far as ships can carry it; that is now the favorite filth of savage lip within the ciroußiferaucc of the globe ; that it fills the atmosphere of the Continent with a stench ; that the Spaniard sucks it, as he says for the heat ; the Dutchman for cold; the Frenchman, because he has nothing else to do ; the German, because he w ill do nothing else ; the London and Amer ican apprentice and loafer because it makes him look like a gentleman ; and all because it is in his own nature the fil thiest, most foolish, dullest and most dis gusting practice on the face of the earth. Tiie Fkiits of Good Tillaoe. We remember to have read somewhere, ofan old gentleman who owned a large vine-! yard. Besides this farm he was blessed with two daughters. On the marriage of the eldest, lie portioned her off with one third of his firm, and behold the remain ing acres produced quite as much fruit and wine as before. Soon after he mar ried his young daughter and gave her an | equal dowry w ith tlie first, and still the j remaining third of his soil yielded as I much as his entire original plantation, j Good manners will see no mystery in this. | The moral of the story is, that as his firm j became smaller, he cultivated it more,and the same amount of labor upon a few a cres, will make it produce tlie fruit of many. There is a great difference between bad tillage and good tillage. Some far mers—no, some earth scrapers, merely scratch up the soil, and after dropping the seed haphazard, trust to the chance of the season. It is not wondered at, that such tatnperers have to scratch hard for a living. We have heard many com plain that large farms did not pay the ex pense of their cultivation—that manure is too expensive to use. The earth was therefore lazily scratched up suflicient to I destroy the face of the soil, and the seed j thrown aw ay upon it. We need not say that such farmers have but little grain to sell, and not much money in these hard times, to put out at interest. Take another case, however ; that of the fanner who makes his farm his pride, who means to show his laboratnlskdl up on every acre, and mark the dwrerence. The laud pays treble value upon its sur face for all that has been bestowed upon it. The owner enriches tlie soil, and the | soil in its return enriches its owner. Every farmer, to make his farm a | source of profit, should make it a source of pride. Whatever portion of tlie soil is ! cultivated, should he weil cultivated. The j point should be, not to have too many.; , but rich acres. The means whereby hus bandry is improved, and facilitated,should he studied and employed. By such care ful attention, a continual pleasure will he found in agricultural pursuits, which will I heighten the rewards ot good tillage. [Farmer’s Cabinet. A Cii after of Accidents. Captain Alfred Hill of Portsmouth, N. 11., who was in the iionic at the time she was lost, and was among the passengers who were 'saved, once narrowly escaped with his life from the pirates on the coast of Cn , bn. lie was with Captain Grozer of this city, at tlie time he was captured by pi rates near Matunzas, when hound to Bos ton, some ten or twelve years ago. A few hours after tlie vessel left port, a sm.ill rakish looking schooner was seen making ' toward them. She came along side, her | decks crowded with men. Hill, who, at that time, was second mate of the vessel, assured Captain Grozer that the schoon er wis one of* tlie pirate vessels, w hich infested that coast, and murdered the crew of every vessel they captured —and that such would immediately he their fate if they were allowed to come on hoard. But they had no arms, with which to make even a show of resistance, and about the time the pirates hoarded the vessel, Hill went below, and concealed himself anion * tin' carmi in the hold. The pirates cal led for the vessel’s p ipers, and ordered all the crew and officers into the forecas tle, soon after which they were taken on deck, one by one, and their throats were cut, by these hloody-tiends. Hill listened with an agony, which may he better con ceived than described, to the prayers and supplications for life of his unfortunate shipmates. Not one was spared—Cap tain Grozer was the last who was murder-* ed. The pirates were aware that one of the crew had escaped, and was conceal ed somewhere on board, but they search ed for him iu vain. lie remained in his hiding place for some hours, supposing by the flapping of the sails, an<| other noises which he heard, that the pirates might still he on board. At last lie ventured on deck, and found that lie was the only person on board— —and no vessel in sight. The deck was covered with the blood of his compan ions, but their bodies were thrown over board He found that the pirates had broken in the lumber port, and the vessel was rapidly filling, lie lost no tiling in constructing,, of a few spars, a sort of raft, upon which he embarked, just as night was coruing on, for the purpose of attempting to reach the Cuba shore,which was then in sight.

He! hastened to the nearest house, several : miles off, the dwelling of a Spanish plan ter, told Ins story, was treated with much kindness, and was furnished with the j means ot’ proceeding to Matanzas. Capt. Hill was accompanied by his wife 1 when on board the Home. She was quite; a young woman, a native of Great Britain, | whom lie rescued from shipwreck, in the English channel some years since. When the Home struck, he secured his wife, to a plank, and floated with her toward, the shore, when a tremendous breaker burst j over them,washed his wife from tlie plank, j and she was drowned.—[Boston Mercan-I tile Journal. ‘Busy Bodies.’ There is a certain ! class of individuals in every town and vil lage, whose greatest pleasure consists in ■■ i prying into tlie affairs of their neighbors, I j mid whose especial province it is to pro-; inulgate them into the world.

Exii.es of Siberia. —The Russian government lias lately published a return of the culprits exiled to Siberia in the years P-:};} ami lß:M,from which it appears that the total number in Western Siberia on the Ist of January, 1 ~:};},amounted to ;}:».921 males, and <s,s';} females. In tiic eastern division there were 42,.17.1 men, and women. In all >2,0.7^. in the course of IS;}:}, ihc number was increased by criminals of both -ex es, and in l-ol by 10,0.1/. On the first of January l>;>-7, there were.in W est Si beria, f-. 1,197 men, and 7,942 women, and in the eastern j> art .70,''9', men, and 10,223 women.—Total 97,121 individu als, being an increase of .I,' (»:>. It results from this document that the government of Caz in supplied the great est number of criminals, and the govern ment of Arch-angel and of Oloneiz the smallest : in Cazan the proportion of culprits “deserving capital punishment” is 1 in every 2,(5.1:1, inhabitants ; in Arcii angel I in 10,70.1. and in Olonetz, 1 iu 12,329. The women transported to Si beria have been for the nio-t part con demned to iiard labor for the crime of in cendiarism. In ISIG, the onlv natives of Livonis sentenced to exile for murder were females ; and another remarkable fict is, all the women exiled fi>r murder during a period of ten years belonged mostly to the eastern provinces of the em pire. The individuals sentenced for po litical crimes are obliged to reside in the j north of Siberia or in tiie cast, towards! the Icy Sea ; those condemned for loss' dangerous offences are allowed to settle : iu the south and west, and in the govern-1 ineiit of Tobolsk, where the climate is! milder. Among those exiles are many who belong by their birth, education, and rank, to the first classes of society, and possess sufficient strength of mind to he reconciled to their fate. The chil dren born of marriages contracted by those exiles with Siberian women bear no trace of their Europian origin, or of the manners of their ancestors. This ex plains why Russian noblemen, who, in Siberia, devotethcmselvcs to agricniure, hunting, manufacturing pursuits, do not differ in the slightest degree from the oth er classes of the people. The descend ants of the Tartar princess profess the Mahomcdan faith, and live apart from the rest of the population, with whom they never intermarry. The Tartars of Siberia reside all in separate slobodes, and work only for themselves. The Ger man exiles, on the contrary, have modi fied in a singular degree the manners and customs of the Russians, but remained strictly attached to the religion of their ancestors, although their mode of living approaches nearer to tlie simplicity of a patriarchal life. They are distinguished by tlieir spirit of order and industry. The Israelites banished to Siberia arc treated with more kindness and attention tlnn in any other part of European Russia. They are considered as a distinct people, as being of the same origin as tlie Germans, because all .hose who have been settled in Siberia invariably speak the German language.—[Prussian State Gazette... Newspapers. The Honorable Judge Longstreet says, “Small is the sum requir ed to patronize a newspaper, and amply remunerated is the patron. I care not how humble and unpretending is the ga ztlfe lie takes. It is next to impossible to till a sheet fifty-two times a year with out putting into it something that is worth the subscription price. Every parent, whose son is off from him at school, should supply him with a newspaper. I well remember what a marked difference there was between those of mv school-mates who had, and others, who had not access to newspapers. Oth er things equal, the first was always deci dedly superior to tlie last, in debate and composition at least. The reason is plain: they had command of more facts. A newspaper is a history of current events, as well as a copious and interesting mis cellany w hich youths will peruse with de light w hen they will read nothing else. A father of an interesting family, resid ing near Detroit, not long since stopped the only newspaper which lie had ever al lowed himselfHr family, and solely on the ground that he could not afford the ex pense. This man chews up fourteen dol and sixty cents worth of tobacco every year. “Education is a better safeguard for liberty than a standing army If we re trench the wages of the schoolmaster ; we must raise the wages of the recruiting sergeant.” [Edward Everett. CiviUTY. —Civility is the consequence of a good education, and the true mark of a polite parentage. It has the proper ty of attracting the good opinion of peo ple at a little expense, and even brutality yields to its power. It costs nothing, and often procures the greatest advantage. It is certain, tint civility has extraordinary effects; for it forces men to he honest, makes avarice ashamed of itself, softens the savage heart, anil keeps the clown at a distance. To a great prince it is an in valuable diamond in bis crown ; among the vulgar, it is a wonder, if ever found. It is a great recommendation to a litera ry man, and often procures more honor thereby than for his literary .abilities. Slander, lie who can choke the sweet flowers Os social love, and taint them with disease : or in the paradise of earth ly bliss, where the plants of virtue flour ish, spread the blight and nnldewfof des olation, hatred and distrust ; who can crush his neighbor's fame to dust, nn;l build on its ruins ; who can write infamy upon the brow of others, to prove diis own purity, is neither man nor beast; but a heartless fiend. Those who have seen their dearest interests tampered with; who know what it is to have the priceless gem of a good name sullied by tlie poi sonous breath of cold, unpitying slander ; these best can say be lias no heart. If the lightning’s flash ever darts from Hea ven to strike the guilty down, it will blast the hope of murderers such as these.— [Sir Mathew Halei Beaftiffl Extract.—“ The glory of the summer is gone by—the beautiful greenness Ins become withered and dead...

'The season of flowers will come again—the streams will flow gracefully and lightly as before— the trees will again toss their cumbrous load of greenness to the sunlight— and, by mossy stone and winding rivulet, the young blossoms will start up, as at the bidding of their fairy guardians....But the hitman heart *has no change like that of Nature.... it has no second spring-time....Qnce blighted in its hour bf freshness, it wears forever the mark of the spoiler.. ..

W. FROST, EDITOR. NUMBER 26. Cork —Many persons see corks used daily w ithout knowing whence come these exceedingly useful materials. Corks sre cut from large slabs of bark of the cork tree, a species of the oak which grows wild in the countries iu the South of Eu rope. The tree is generally divested of its bark at about fifteen years old but fore stripping it off the tree is not cut down as in the case of the oak. It is ta ken while the tree b growing; and the operation may be repeated every eighth; or ninth year, the quality of the cork con tinuing to improve each time as the dge of the tree increases.— When the hark is taken off, it is singed in a flame of a strong fire ; and, after being soaked for a considerable time in water, it is placed under heavy weights in order to render it straight. Its extreme lightness, the ease with which it may be compressed, and its elasticity,we properties so peculiar \o this substance, that no efficient substitute for it has yet been discovered. The valuable properties of corks were known to the Greeks and Romans, who employed it for all tlie purposes for which it is used at present, w ith the exception of stopples for bottles—the ancients mostly employ ing cement for closing the mouths of bot tles or vessels. Tlie Egyptians are said to have made coffins of cork, which, be ing spread on the inside with a resinous substance, preserved deadr bodies from de cay. In modern times, cork was not gen erally used for stopples to bottles till a bout the close of the 17th century, wax being till then chiefly in use for that pur pose. The cork imported into Great l i iltain is rirougrit pnncipaify'frors ltaly, Spain, and Portugal. The quantity an nually consumed is upwards of 5000 tons. A Real Patron. —We see it stated that Wade Hampton, Esq. of South Car olina, not long since paid the proprietor ot the N. Y. Spirit of the Times, one hun* dredyears subscription in advance, ing to five hundred dollars. This genteel thing is said to have been done to save thfc publisher the trouble of sending for his dues, and Mr. Hampton the trouble of filling his receipts.—lt was doubtless a delicate mode adopted by him of contrib uting substantial aid to a paper in the success of which he felt an interest. The same liberal gentleman performed a simt» ; iar flattering act towards the National In telligencer ; but, thinking, probably, that j the editors were not as likely to flourish* for a century as the more youthful editor of the Times, he did not extend his sub scription quite so far in tlieir case as in his.

There is an aggregate of 3-11) millions of acres of public lands within the limits of the States and Territories, of which 133 millions are now ready for sale, and 100 millions more can be ready as soon as it can he surveyed.
