\ Oleamoi Sunshine. BV H. W. I.ONCFKtJ.OW, 'piijs is ine place. fc'tand still my steed, Let me review the scene, And summon fromthn shadowy Past The forms that once have been. The Past and Present re-unite Beneath Time’s flowing tide, Like footprints hidden by a brook, But seen on either side. Here runs the highway to the town, There the green lane descends, Through which I walked to church with thee Oh! gentlest of tuy friends! The shadow of the linden trees, Lay moving on the grass; Between them and the moving boughs, A shadow, thou didst pass. Thy dress was like the lilies, And thy heart as pure as they, One of God’s holy angels Did walk with me that day. I saw the branches ot the trees Bend down thy t meh to meet, The clover-blossoms in the grass Rise up to kiss thy feet. “Sleep, sleep to-day,tormenting cares, Oi earth at.d lolly born Sole mly sangthe village choir On that sweet Sabbath m irn. Through the closed blinds the golden sun Poured in a dusty beam, Like the celestial ladder Ot the ancient patriarch’s dream. And ever and anon, the wind, Sweet-scented with the hay, Turned o’er the hymn-book’s fluttering leaves That on the window lay. Long was the good man’s sermon, But it seemed not so to me, For he spake of Ruth the beautiful, And still I thought ol thee. Long was the prayer he uttered, But it seemed not so to me, For in my heart I prayed with him, But still I thought of thee. But now, alas, the place seems changed; Thou art no longer here; Part of the sunshine of the scene With thee did disappear. Though thoughts, deep-rooted in my heart, r Like pine trees dork andalgch, Subdue the light of noon, and breathe A low and ceaseless sigh, brightens o’er the Past, ~ —i. As when the sun, concealed Behind some cloud that near us hangs, Shines on a distant field. [ Gift for 1845. The Lucy Walker.—The Cincinnati Bul letin says: “ We hear related numerous incidents con nected with the accident, which ate interesting, but we have no room for many of them to-day. Mr. Wren, of Yazoo, Mississippi, was thrown from the boiler deck, and tell near the bow ol the boat in a state of insensibility. When he recovered his senses, he saw his little son, six orseven years oi l, in the rear of the boat, the flames raging round the boy. The father, unable to rise, watched the movements of the son with the greatest anxiety. Soon he saw the boy leap overboard. The river was full of planksand mattrasses, and the boy went from fragment to fragment until he succeeded in getting upon a mattrass. He floated on the mattrass until saved by a rope from the Gopher. The father saw his rescue with feelings we do not attempt to decribe. Aman, his wile, and four daughters were saved without injury, though in different ways and places. Their meeting must have been most joyous. A little girl was found clinching to the wreck when the flames were so near that she had to dash water against one side of her face to protect it from the intense heat. A man was on the hurricane deck, with his wife and a little daughter, at tjie time of the explosion; he dropped the former aft into the yawl, and she was saved, but with a sprained ancle; he thew the latter idto the stream, and then plunged in and saved it by swimming.” From the 2Vt?c Monthly Magazine. Abroad and at Home—or the two-faccd Husband* [There is too much truth in lhe picture here presented. There are too many such husbands in the world.] Those people who at the club and elsewhere are acquainted with Mr. Wagstaff declare, he is the most generous and agreeable creature that ever turned out ot the city. He arrives, his jolly face beaming with good humor. He has a good word fur every body, and every man a good word for him. Some bachelor says, ‘ Wag, my boy, there is a white-bait party at Greenwich; will you be one?’ He hesitates. ‘I promised Mrs. Wagstaff io be home at din ner/ says he; and when he says that, you may be sure he will go. If you propdse to him a game of billiards in the afternoon he will play till dinner, and make the most ludicrous jokes about his poor wile waiting till his return. If you ask'him to smoke cigars he r.*rl. eo till morning, and goes home with a story to Mrs. W., which the poor soul receives with despe rate credulity. Once she used to sit up for him; but to continue the practice .would have killed her. She goes to bed now, and Wagstefl reels in when he likes. He is not ill humored. Far from it. He never says an unkind word to rhe children, or lo lhe cook, or to the boy who blacks his bools, or to his wife. She wishes he would. He comes down stairs exactly three minutes before office time. He has his tea and his newspaper in bed. His eldest daughter brings the paper in, amt his dear wife appears with the tea. He has a kind word lor both, and scrubs the little girl’s fresh cheek wilh his bristly beard, and laughs at the joke, and professes a prodigious interest in her lessons, and in knowing whether Miss Wiggles the governess is satisfied wilh her; and before she finishes her answer, he is deep in the folios of the Times, and does not care a one farthing piece what the litth girl says. He has promised lo tak * the child to Astley’s any lime these four years. She could hardly speak when he promised it. She is a fine tall lass, and can read and write now; and though it was so long ago, has never forgotten lhe promise about Astley’s. When he is away from home, Wagstaff talks about his family with great affection. In th' long days when he is a wav, their mother, God help her! is telling them what a good man their papa is—how kind and gencrims—and how busy he is what a pily! he is obliged lo wor k so hard and stay way from home! Poor creature! Sure Heaven will pardon her these lies, it any lies are pardonable. Whenever he says he will walk with her, /Arabella dresses herself in the gown he likes, and puts on a pink bonnet, and is ready to the very minute, you may be sure How often is it that be is ready to the minute ? How many scores and scores of times has he left the heart-sick girl? -not forgetting her in the least—but engaged e sewhere with a game ot billiards or a jolly friend and cigar—and per haps wishes rather to be at home al! lhe lime— but he is so good namred, such a capital fellow. Whenever he keeps his appointme; t--Hea ven help us! sh • bi ightens up as if it were Par adise co iring to her. She looks with a trium phant air at the servant who opens the door, arid round about at the neighbor’s win tows, as if she would have all the world know that she is walk ing with her hushand. Every now and then as she walks—(it is but twice or thrice a year, for Wagstaff has his business on week days, and never gets up till one of a Sunday)—every now and then asshe walks with him, the delighted creaturegives a skip, and squeezes his arm, and looks up in his face, she is so happy. And so is he, too, foi he is as good a fellow as ever breathed—and he resolves io lake her out lhe very next Sunday—only he doesn’t. Everyone of these walk days is noted down in the poor soul s little calender of home as saint’s days. She talks of them quite fondly; and there is not one ot he: female friends, whom she won’t visit t for weeks after, and to whom she will not be sure to rind some pretext for recounting the wonderful walk. Mon dieu, ladies—all the time J was descri bing that affair at Durognon’s those odious French women, and their chatter, and their ogling, and their champagne, I was thinking of Arabella faraway in the distance and alone. I declare upon my honor, she was never out of my thoughts for a single minute. She was the moral of the Partie Fine—the simple, while robed, spotless, meek-eyed angel of a wife— thinking about her husband—and he among the tawdry good-for-nothings yonder! Fizz! there goes the first champagne ci rk, Mr. Wagstaff is makings lender speech to Madame Virgini?. At that moment Arabella is up stans in the nursery, where the same moon is shining in, and putting her youngest boy to bed. Bang! there goes the second cork. Virginie screams—Fitzsimons roars with laughter— Wagstaff hob-nobs with the old lady, who gives a wink and a nod. They are taking away the fish and putting down the entrees. At that moment Arabella has her second child between her knees, (the little one is asleep wilh its thumb in its mouth, and the elder is begin ning to rub her eyes over her favorite fairy tale, though she has read it many scores of times.) Arabella his the child between her knees, and just as Wag is clinking his glass with the old lady in London, his wife at Bognor says tome thing to the child, who says alter her. “ Dm I bless by dear papa and presently he is in bea too, and sleeps as soundly as his little sister. And so it is that these pure blessings are sent —yearning alter that fellow over his cups.— Suppose they reach him! Why, the spotless things must blush and go out again from the company in which lhev find him. The drinking goes on, the jokes an d fun get faster and faster. Arabella by this time has seen die eldest child asle’p in her crib, and is looking out at tht moon in silence, as the children breathe rc-un her a soft chorus of slumber. Her mother b down stairs alone, reading ‘ Blair’s Sermons, —a high-shouldered, ho. k-nosed, lean, mora woman. She wonders her daughter don’t come down to tea—there is her cup quke cold, will the cream stagnant on the surface, and her work basket by its side, with a pair of man’s slipper nearly done, and one lazy scrawl from her hus band, four lints only, aud leu days old. But Arabella keeps away, thinking, thinking, and preferring to be alone. The girl has a sweet soft heart, and little sympathy with the mother’s coarse, rigid, strong-minded nature. The only time they quarrel is, when the old lady calls the son-in-law ab: ute; then the young one fires up and defends her own like a little Amazon. What is this secret of love? How does it spring? How is it.that no neglect can kill it? In truth, its origin and endurance are alike ut terly absurd and unreasonable. What secret power was it that made this delicate minded young creature, who had been bred up upon the purest doctrines of the sainted Mrs. Chapone, who nad never thought about love, who, simple soul, had been utterly' absorbed in her little dai ly duties, her piano forte practice, her French lesson, her use ot the gl bes, her canary bird, and her Magnall’s questions—what, I say, is it that makes this delicate girl all of a sudden ex pand into a passion of love lor a young sugar baker, simply because she meetshim three limes rid ng a gray mare on Clapham common, and afterwards (the sly rogue I) on half a dozen oc casions at her aunt’s at tea ? What is it that makes her feel that a young sugar baker is the fatal man with whom her existence is bound up, go through fire and water to marry him; love him in spite of neglect and indifference; adore him so absurdly, that a half-hours kindness irom him more than balances a month’s brutali ty? O, mystery of woman’s heart! Wagstaff, so splendid with his dinners and so generous on himself, is not so generous at home. He pays the bills with only a few oaths; but somehow he leaves his wife without money.— He will give it to any body rather than to her; a fact of which he himself is, very likely, una ware at thisminute,or of the timidity of his wife in asking for it. In order to avoid this asking, the poor girl goes through unheard of economies, and performs the most curious tricksol avarice. Site dresses herself tor nothing, and she dresses her children out of her own frocks. Certain dimities, caps, pinafores, and other fallals, have gone through the family; and Arabella, though she sees ever such a pret y thing in a shop win dow, will pass on with a sigh; whereas her Lacelot is a perfect devourer of waistcoats, and never sets his eyes on aflaringvelvetthatstrikes his fancy bat you will be sure to behold him the next week swaggering about in the garment in Pail Mai'. Women are ever practising these petty denials, about which the lords of the crea tion never think. I will tell you what 1 once saw Arabella do ing. She is a woman of very high breeding, and no inconsiderable shire of family pride; well, one day on going to Wagstaffs house, who had invi.ed a party of us to Blackwall, about a bet he had lost, 1 was, in the master’s absence, ushered into thedrawing room, which is fur nished very fine, and there sat the lady of the house at her work table, with her child prattling at her knee. I could not understand whatmade Mrs. Wag staffblush so—look so entirely guilty of some thing or other—fidget, answer a travers, and re ceive an old friend in-th is strange and inhospita ble way. She, the descendant of the Smiths of Smith field, of the Browns of Brownha., the proud daughter ot the aristocracy, wars making a pair of tromsers far her eldest son. She huduledthem away hastily under a pillow—but bah! we have keen eyes—and from under that pillow the but tons peeped out, and with those buttons the se cret—they were while ducks—Wagstaffs white ducks—lds wife was making them into white ducklings for little Fred. The sight, affected me. I should like to have cried, only it is unmanly; and to cry about a pair of little breeches I—l1 —1 should like to have seized hold ol Mrs. Wagstaff and bugged her to my heart; but she would have screamed and rung for John to show me down stairs; so I dis guised my feelings by treading on the tail of her spaniel dog, whose squealing caused a diver sion. But I shall never forget those breeches.— What I Wagstaff is flaunting in a coat oi N ogee’s and his son has that sweet, humble tailor. Wag staff is preparing for Blackwall, and here is his wife plying her gentle needle. Wagstaff feasts ofl plate and frothing wine, and Arabella sits down to cold mutton in the nursery, with her little ones ranged about her. Wagstaff enjoys —Arabella suffers. He flings about"his gold; and she tries to stave off evil days by little sav ings of meek pence. Wagstaff sins and she forgives—and trusts, loves, and hopes on, in spite ol carelessness and coldness, neglect and extravagance. This is the moral of the last story. O, ye Wagstaffs of this work!, profit by it. O, ye gen tle, meek angels of Arabellas, be meek and gen tle still. If an angel can’t reclaim a man, who can ? Alpaca.—Probably tew ladies who wear and admire the beautiiul fabric cal’cd Alpaca, are aware of the source of its production. The Alpaca is a wool-bearing animal, indigenous to South America, and is one ot four varieties which beargeneral points of resemblance to each other. The Lama, one of lhe varieties, has been long known and often described; but it is only within a few years that the Alpaca has been considered of sufficient importance to mer it particular notice. Nine-tenths of the wool of the Alpaca is black, the remainder being partly while, red anil grizzled. Il is ot a very long staple, often reach ing twelve inches, and resembles soft glossy hair; which character is not lost in dyeing. The Indians in the South American mountains, ma nufacture nearly all their clothing from this wool, are enabled to appear in black dresses, without the aid of a dyer. Both the Lama and Alpaca are perhaps, even of more value to the natives as beasts of burden than wool bearing animals, and their obstinacy when irritated, is well known. The importance ol this animal has already been consideied by the English, in their hat woollen and stuff trade, and an essay on the sub ject has been published by Dr. Hamilton, of London, from which some of these details are collected. The wool is so remarkable, being a jet black, glossy, silk like hair, that it is fitted for the pro duction of texile fabrics differing from all others, occupying a medium position between wool and It is now mingled with other materials in such a singular manner, that while a particular dye will! effect those, it will leave the Alpaca wool with its original black colour, and thus giving rise to great diversity.— lns. The CiNNAAiON Tree.—Mr. Cushing, our Minister lo China, in an account ol the island of Ceylon, makes the f illowing statements re specting the natuie and lhe cultivation of lhe Cinnamon tree : First, as to cinnamon cuUitre. This produc tion in its perfect state is almost a monopoly of lhe island of Ceylon, and its growth is confined to a very nanow tract of on the southwest side of the Island, chiefly in lhe neighborhood of Colombo. This does not seem to be the re-ult of political arrangement merely, but to arise hum some inappreciable virtue in the combina tion of climate, soil, and water, and their rela tion to each other io this island of Ceylon, and in this part of if. Some of these peculiarities ii is easy i G indicate without its being so easy to understand why the particular consequence should follow. The tract 01 country in which alone the cinna mon grows to perfection, is situated on the sea coast exposed to ft e air of the ocean. It is in a climate of equable tempera ure, which isatonce hot and moist—hot from its tropical position, and moist from the ftequency and plentitulness ot rains. The general level ot the country is low in the midst of tresh water lakes, divided from the sea by a small riband of land. And the water in the soil ot the cinnamon gardens is of extraordinary purity, so as to be for that rea son much in request in the neighboring city as a beverage. This exact combination ot influ ences does not occur any where else in the is land, at least does not in the same degree. But the crowning fact is the nature of the soil. It is in great part pure quartz sand of a greyish to a pearly white lustre. ' A specimen of it be ing carefully dried by Dr. Davy was found to consist ot 90.5 silicious sand, 0.5 vegetable mat ter, and 1 water. This circumstance impresses one very strongly on visiting the cinnamon gar dens, it seems so strange to see a plain of pure quartz sand whitened in the sun and covered over with a luxuriant growth ol tiees. In richer soils the aroma is said not to develope itself in the same concentrated form. Perhaps the name ol garden, which is applied to the cinnamon plantations, may lead to an er roneous conception ot their nature. The cinna mon tree (laurus annamoniwn,) in its real state grows to the height of about twenty feet; but the batk, which is the only valuable part, is found to lose much ol its highly aromatic quality in the mature trees. Accordingly, the trees are cut young, when the stems are only five or six feet long, and less than an inch thick at the larg est end. The bark is then stripped or peeled off in long pieces like willow bark, scraped careful ly to remove lite cuticle, and laid out to dry, du ring which it curls up in quills, as they are call ed, and it is then ready for the market, but im proves by keeping for a while. The wood is good for nothing but fuel. Owing to the mode ot cultivation, this cinnamon garden has very much the appearance of scrub oa-kj-the rich bright green leaves ot the small trees being strik ingly in contrast with the white plain in which they grow. It is possible that the fragrance of the cinna mon gro. cs may have been sensible to voyagers along the coast ot Ceylon; but Ido not believe that it often happens; no such fact was perceiv ed on board, the Brandywine. There is very lit tie of this fragrance perceptible in the gardens themselves; and the idea of its extending out to saa "is laughed al in Colombo. Astonishing Performance on the River — Sailing til Gmt P<nnr.—A most singular feat was yesterday successfully perlormed on the river between Vauxhall ’ and Westminister nridges. Mr. Barry, one ot the clowns of Ast ley’s Theatre, had announced bis intention ol sailing from Vauxhall to Westministet in a washing-tub drawn bv two geese. A large crowd assembled on both sides ol the river to vitness this strange undertaking. At about half past 3 o’clock Mr. Barry, with several ol lisfriends and attired in his clown’s dress, ar tve.l at Vauxhall Bridge, and, all things hav ing been prepared, he al once stepped into his ub an.l started upon his voyage. The tide be ,ng in his favor be went along safely enough, and had little difficulty in making the geese keep a proper course. An immense number of boats accompanied this water party, so that the ihitvplavoyaguer was in iid'daifter of dlxlWhing." Mr. Barry disembarked from his vessel at West minister Bridge, and proceeded ntnidst loud cheers to the theatre.— Londmtpoper. Remarkable Repeating Watch.— ln the Acade my ot Sciences at St. Petersburg, in Russia, is a repeating watch about the size of an egg. Within is presented the Redeemer’s tomb, with the stone at the entrance, and the sentinels; and, while a spectator is admiring this curious piece ot mechanism, the stone is suddenly removed, the sentinels dropdown, the angel- appear, the women enter the sepulchre, and the same chant is heard which is performed in the Greek Church on Eastern eve. CUTTING TIMBER. Ma. Bcckminister,—Sir: One fact I wish to state with regard to the time to cut limber. I am satisfied from aeffial observation, that tim ber cut in the month ot June, and perhaps July, will last twice, if not four times as long, either under or above ground, as that cut in winter, and it will not powder po. t. Yours respectfully, West Newton, July \’3, 1844. John Stimson. [There are many causes that tend to prove June a better time than winter to cut timber.

Lincolnton, Ga., August 12, 1544. & THE COMMITTEE selected to attend the examination of the pupils under the caro, supervision and instruction ol Mr. Joel T. Mc- Ginty, Rector of the Salem Academy, Lincoln county, Ga., beg leave to make the foliowing Re port of said exam nation, to all whom it may concern:— The Committee, in compliance with the re auest and invitation of the Trustees of the Aca demy, attended the examination held on the 18th ultimo. It would seem needless to mention that the large number of attending visitors fully con vinced our minds, that the school even now was in the enjoyment of no trivial reputation. We are glad that, in connection with this strong evi dence, after having patiently and attentively lis tened to the very interesting exercises of the day, we are enabled to afford to the public generally, and more especially to the patrons of the school, still more powerful, more conclusive testimony of the perseverance, ability, and distinguished worth of the Rector of the Academy, and the do cility, learning and laudable endeavors of his ta ented pupils. We were glad to perceive that a noble emula tion reigned throughout the classes, all striving evidently to excel rn their different studies, and showing by the promptness of their answers tnat they had well attended to their cuties during lhe term. For all this, we would now award them the meed of praise to which we know they are so justly entitled. It has been the misfortune of some of us to have been prevent at examinations, where naught save the ignorance of both teacher and pu il was displayed, where all seemed to be sunk into a deep, deplorable, aye, shameful lethargy—the teacher en the one hand, having no regard what ever for the cultivation of the youthful minds under his control and management; the pupil on the otheu, equally insensible to the benefits to be derived from a good education. Such, we are able io testify, was not the case here. -Energy— the life, the soul, the ai! of every undertaking— was here apparent. Neither teacher nor pupil feared for themselves in their responsible situations before the enlight ened assembly : tie eyes of the auditors, beaming with delight, were but indices of their hearts as they ushered the response grateful to ail— ‘‘ Weil done, good and faithful servants.” The unde*signed cannot in justi e omit men tioning the freedom and fairness displayed during ihe examination. We are fully satisfied that the teacher has taught all he professes to teach, and iis pupils have not failed to imbibe the moral truths, sound doctrine and wisdom he laid before them. No fiaudjiere—no imposition up m the communitv and patrons of the school. We take a pleasure in testifying that all was submitted to us candidly, openly and fairly. We would heg leave to conclude this our brief report, by tendering our thanks to the teacher for his services to the community and to the coun try ; and for himself and school, we pray even still greater success.

The yield is much larger, and the quality superior to the Petit Gulph or other kinds of Cotton usu ally grown in this section of country. Planters who purchase a supply of the seed may rely upon sufficient increase in product of the first crop to refund the outlay for seed.

Dear Sir—l regret it was not in niy power yes terday, when I saw you, to give you any opinion with regard to a small lot of co*ton I have grow ing from seed presented to me last spring by my friend, John W. Graves, Esq. Since then, how ever, i have been to my plantation and made com parison oi it with my crop of cotton, and now lake pleasure in saying to you, it is a superior ar ticle in noint of fineness and length of fibre, con t eining in«?te lint on the seed, and will yield much more from the same quantity of land planted. 1 am dear sir, Your obedient servant, [Signed] Johnston. Georgia, Newton County: I hereby certify that 1 obtained fronl John W. Graves, of this county, a sack of Cotton Seed, (which he represented of superior quality intro duced from Texas,) which I planted last spring, and find to exceed my most sanguine expectation. I planted it two or three weeks after my other cotton, (which is the Petit Gulph,) and notwith standing the season w s dry and unfavorable throughout the year, (the growing season) yet it is by far the best cotton I ever made. I think by the time it is alt gathered, the best part will yield 2000 to 2500 pounds per acre. My neighbors who have seen it are of the same opinion. From the trial I have made, 1 believe it will yield double as much as mv other cotton on land ot the same fer tility. ' [Signed] Jackson Harwell. 24 th October, 1814. Georgia, Morgan County: This is to certify that I am neighbor to John T. McNeil, Esq., and that he last spring got a load of Texas Cotton Seed from John W. Graves, Esq., of Newton county, and planted them on what I consider average land of his farm ; aad from frequent observation of the crop, with his other cotton, (which is the Petit Gulph.) I do be lieve it will far excel any other cotton 1 have ever seen raised in this section of country. And I also believe that the staple excels any other I have ever examined, pr to fineness and color. [.Signed] John P. Evans. This will certify that I acted a«= overseer for Air. John T. McNeil for the year 1844. My know ledge of fanning induces me to believe that the Texas Cotton, raised by Mr. McNeil this year, is a very superior article, and with me preferable to any other cotton I have evenaised. It is of long and fine staple, and well bolted, and cas iy picked out, and has withstood a drought, this year belter than the Petit Gulph Cotton. It is, in a word, a valuable cotton I have ginned eight bales of the Texas Cotton on Mr. McNeil’s Carver Gin, and find that it yieldsone pound of clear cotton from three of seed cotton ; and from my experience of thirty years in cotton growing, I have never rais ed any’l think equal to the Texas Cotton. [Signed] Allison Kent. Augusta, October 30, 1844. John IP. Graves, Esq.: Dear Sir—Having been called on by you to make a statement in relation to your Texas Cot ton, we take pleasure in saying, that for the last two or three years we have received at our ware house your cotton crops. The quality has inva riably proved very superior, both as to color and length of staple. On sale, it has always brought the highest market price. We consider it a very superior article in the cotton line. Your obedient servants, Adams &. Hopkins. Mr. John T.
