POETRY.
From the Louisville Journal.
Lady—’tis sweet to linger still,
* And still delay when thou art nigh.
To hear the music of thy voice,
And feel the transports of thine eye;
To hear those accents sweet and clear
Sink softly on my faintingear,
And o’er my soul their thrillings sweep
Like music o’er the waveless deep.
Oft as that eye or kindest blue,
Where Love’s young transports softly
shine,
Or the full soul comes beaming forth,
Is raised in gentleness to mine,
Tis like the spell sent down to bless
The dying saint with holiness
And cheer his spirits, ere it use
A young Immortal to the skies.
And when at length from joy and thee
I tear my lingering steps away,
My rebel thoughts, unsevered still,
Around their paradise delay,
And still my visions paint thee nigh
The morning star of memory’s sky
And still in blessed dreams oi thee
Hive an age ofecstacy.
Though to far distant shores I go,
Where other scenes of beauty rise
Where other lauds and seas give back
Their beauty to far distant skies,
Still as the sea-bird bies him back
To his loved home o’er Ocean’s track
and exile, still would flee
Twßßn all Earth's gLiies home to thee.
Where Evening’s lone and pensive form
Is bending from the Eastern sky
To close her curtains around the world
And hand her vestal fires on high,
Thy form seems imaged faint and far
As burns each dim unchanged star
And thy sweet tones seem breathing by
In the low wind’s mysterious sigh.
And oft as slumber spreads her vail
Ofbalm upon my dreaming sight
In the blest realms of fancy still
Thy form is beautiful and bright*
'Tis on the si’lence of my breast
A guardian spirit when attest
And gently gilds my hours of sleep
As moonlight gilds the azure deep.
Lady, thou art my light of life
My star of joy that gives its hue
To by gone hours, that brighten still
The loveliest spot on memory’s view;
And when my mingled hopes and fears
Look onward o’er the tide of years
Thou art the star, whose fadelesss beams
Illumine rapture’s wildest dreams.
The sea-boy on the troubled main
When wintry storms have swept him by,
From his lone wilderness of waves
With rapture hails the calm blue sky;
*Tis thus from life’s tumultuous sea
My weary thoughts revert to thee
And give my tempest-troubled breast
A cloudless calm—a changeless rest. ♦
In blushes morning lifts her veil
To meet the ardent gaze of day
While darkness down the awaken’d world
Sinks to his dungeon-caves away;
So down my heart does sadness fly
When fancy shews thine image nigh
And thus in visions does thy glance
Beam o’er my darkened soul’s expanse.

The Feeling of Immortality is Youth.— No
Young man believes he shall ever die. It was
a saying of my brother’s, and a fine one.
There is a feeling of eternity in youth which
makes us amends for uvery thing. To be
young is to be as one of the immortals. One
half of time indeed is spent—the other half re
mains in store for us, with all its countless
treasures, for there is no line drawn, and we
see no limit to our hopes and wishes. We
make the coming age our own—
‘The vasl,the,unbounded prospect lies before us.’
Death, old age, are words without a meaning,
a dream, a fiction, with which we have nothing
to do. Others may have undergone, or may
still undergo them—we ‘bear a charmed life,’
which laughs to scorn all such idle fancies.
As, in setting out on a delightful journey, we
strain our eager sight forward,
‘Bidding the lovely scenes at distance hail,’
and see no end to prospect, new objects pre
senting themselves as we advance, so in the
outset of life we see no end to our desires, nor
to the opportunities of gratifying them. We
have as yet found no obstacle, no disposition
to flag, and it seems that we can go on for ever.
Hazlitt.
Newspaper Readers.— Shenstone. the poet,
divides the newspaper readers into the follow,
ing classes: “The ill-natured man looks to the
list of bankrupts—the traders man to the price
of bread—the stock-jobber to the lies of the
day—the old maid to the marriages—the pro
digal son to the deaths—the monopolist to the
hopes of a wet harvest—and the boarding,
school Misses to every thing that relates to
Gretna Green!”
Single Blessedness.
Let no repugnance to a single state,
Lead to a union with a worthless mate,
Akyugh ’tis true you’ll find full many a fool
Would make old maids the butt of ridicule,
A single lady, though advanced in life,
Is much more happy than an ill-match’d wife.
Wife. — There is no combination of letters
in the English language which excite more
pleasing and interesting associations in the
mind of man, than the word wife! It presents
to the mind’s eye a cheerful companion, a dis
interested adviser, a nurse in sickness, a co n
forterin misfortune, and an ever affectionate
companion. Il conjures up the image of a
lovely, confiding woman, who cheerfully un
dertakes to contribute to your happiness, to
partake with you the cup, whether of weal or
woe, which destiny may offer. The word
wife is synonymous with’ the gieatest earthly
blessing; and we pity the unfortunate wiofit
whois compelled, by fate’s severe decree,”to
trudge along through life’s dull pilgrimage
without one. °
Irish Readiness.— An hostler was asked a
few days since, who was the owner of a very
fine span of horses which stood at the door of
the stable, and which, for convenience sake,
were owned by one man in the name of ano
ther. “Sure, sir,” said he, “if you are wishing
tebuy, Mr. Smith will sell them to you; but
if you are wanting to attach them, they belong
to Mr. Brown.”
To attempt to reason or to argue with a wo
man, is about as politic as to attempt to lay a
rail-road with snakes.
Louisville Wit— A fellow in Augusta, while
attempting to steal a gentleman’s watch-seal,
was knocked down by the gentleman’s cane.
Instead of catching seals he caught a whale.

From the New England Farmer.
Agriculture. as Compared wills oilier pur
suits.
BY FRANCIS H. GOTRGAS.
Tillage ot the earth was the first employ,
ment assigned to man, and it is of ail occupa
tions the most pleasa it and independent. It
is one which not only requires physical abili
ty, but if carried to the most profitable and
praiseworthy extent, it also requires mental
exertion —and by these very requisitions,, it
creates and preserves a healthy and vigorous
state of body and mind. No individual need
be happier or prouder than the cultivator ot
theearth—to be sure he lias his cloudy days;
the seasons arc sometimes unpropitious, cut
ting short his crops, and grasping with an
iron hand some of his dearest interests, but
wrecks ere found elsewhere than on his coasts.
The merchant, and mechanic, and manufac
turer, ail have their moments ol adversity to
dread; and perhaps v. ith nut a single hope to
cheer them on in their struggle Ifetween duty
and self; the husbatidmin is never, beyond
hope, as long as his land exists and fertility
continues to abide in its vitals—and when did
either the one or the other fail?
But it is not the security of the fartnar which
alone recommends his situation, it is the inex
haustible source of pleasure always at his com
mand. It is he, who can study to the most
advantage the mysteries oi nature —it is he,
who has access at all times to her charms;
the happy song of the bird strikes pleasantly
upon his car; the morning breeze comes grate
fully to his brow, the rising sun, the beautiful
flower and every varying folliage, the joyous
insect, and the thousands and tens of thous
ands of objects bless- d and indulged under the
guidance of a kind Father—are to him scenes
glorious and great. He is not confined to a
dwelling, to perform the mental drudgery and
make the dry calculations of the merchant;
nor to a shop, to go through the laborious and
tiresome operations of encountering the dan
gers and partaking of the toils, and hardships
of the mariner; in the charming language oi
Bloomfield,
“ No wilds has he to roam,
But bright enclosures circling round his home.”
Such is the husbandman’s lot, which so ma
ny affect to dread, and which formerly so ma
ny affected to despise; it possess .s more ad
vantage to recommend it to the notice of man,
than any other employment upon the wide
earih. It is an occupation admirably calcu
lated to improve and exalt the human mind,
from the very circumstance, that the mind is
continually called upon, to study and observe
and admire the works and providence of a
superior Being; there is not a particle of earth,
nor an insect, nor au herb, but which affords
food for an intelligent mind to tase and enjoy.
The great phenomena of nature, which have
at different times been discovered, and whose
discovery has brought about revolutions, and
effected changes, (the thoughts of which
would have before started the very soul of
man,) have been first observed and made
knowm, by those engaged in the pursuit of
Agriculture—a fact which ought to excite love
and attention to the subject.
In pursuing this avocation, man has oppor
tunities to perfect his acquaintance with many
of the sciences—which, if he was otherwise
engaged, he might not so conveniently avail
himselfof. A farm is a vast text book of chem
istry, botany, &c. proving their principles, and
continually testing the efficacy and value of
I the application of those principles—and man
in purchasing it pays nothing for these trea
sures of knowledge it contains. He mry an
alyze soils, and discover the properties and
use of herbs and plants, and do this, as it were,
in the regular course of business; without
hardly devoting an extra hour on the subject;
and moreover, a healthy system and a firm
and vigorous mind bring to the task that energy
and devotion which insures success.
It is not the least recommendation of Agri
culture, that those engaged in it are the most
independent class of men on the globe. They
are subservient to no one, on the contrary eve
ry other business is supported by them; if the
vessels of the merchant were rotting at the
wharves, the sound of the hammer was no lon
ger heard, the husbandman might still goon.
To be sure, the market for his produce might
be dull and the commodity of money' scarce,
but he might still live comfortably, and every
article of clothing and diet could be had, which
ought to be found on the list of comfort and
c >nvenience; his school master, and other
functionaries whom he must necessarily em
ploy, might be hired as in olden times, on a
salary of potatoes or pumpkins. Take it in
what light you will, the independence of the
farmer is a just and a noble dispensation of
providence; it is ho, who bears the “burden
and the heat ot the day,” and whose mind bv
the nature and constancy of his employment
is raised above the little trickeries and miser
able evasions of trade, —and it is he, therefore,
who should stand first on the roll of merit,
I cannot better close these remarks than by
observing, that at the present day the husband
man is beginning to participate largely ol the
honors and offices of his country. Men of
thorough academic education, distinguished
and wealthy individuals, are taking a person,
al interest in agriculture—setting their own
shoulders to the wheel, and encouraging and
assisting ethers to do the same. It is aston.
ing what a revolution has taken place m re
gard to this subject within the but half centu
ry; formerly our public offices were held al
together by professional men—now their seats
are occupied by manual laborers, men who
are an honor and a light to their country.
This is right and natural; the farming commu.
nity is the largest, and it would be singular if
they were obliged to select their representa
tives from any other class. Il should be recol
lected then by every individual entering upon
life, that a choice ot Agriculture as his avoca
tion will by no means close the gates of popu
lar favor against him, but on the contrary will
be a hearty and warm recommendation wher
ever he may go.
Russian mode of makin g Rutter.— Sir, —Ob.
serving in a monthly scientific journal, an arti
cle on the subject of making butter in the win.
ter, I beg leave to furnish the particulars on
that subject, as practiced in Russia since the
year ISI6. and which may, perhaps, be ot’
some service to those who may be induced to
make the experiment cithei in summer or win
,er* Being m that country in the year 1834,
I was informed by a Russian nobleman, that
the proprietor of an extensive estate (also a
nobleman of high rank) had discovered a new'
mode of making butter, and had received let
ters patent from the Emperor as a reward for
•he discovery, and which he stated at the time
as being in full and successful operation. The
process consisted in boiling (or rather a spe
cies ot boiling, called simmering) the milk for
the space of fifteen minutes in its sweet state;
observing at the same time not to use a suffi
cient heat to burn the milk: it is then churned
in the usual manner. He also stated that no
difficulty ever occurred tn procuring butter im
mediately, and of a quality superior far to ti.at
made from milk which had undergone vinous
fermentation; and that in addition to its supe
rior flavor, it would preserve its qualities much
longer than that made in the ordinary mode;
that the additional advantages were, that the
milk, being left sweet, is almost possessed of!
the same value tor ordinary purposes, and by I
some considered more healthy, as they sup- j
’posed the boiling or scalding to destroy the an- j
imalculae or whatever it may have contained, j
It the above process should, upon ex peri - i
ment, prove of sufficient importance, as to bring i
it into general use, particularly in the winter. I
it would perhaps be to the advantage of those ■
who may practice r, to have their milk scald- 1
ed in vessels calculated to stand in the kettle I
orboiler, by which mode the danger of burn
ing the milk would be avoided, for it is ascer
tained that milk only burns or; the edges of its
surface, or where it conies i > contact wiihthe
sides of the. vessel in which it is heate I, which
can never happen in double ki ttles or where
one is placed within the other.— Lon. Mirror.
Bulwer’s levels,
Induced by the extraordinary sale of his beau
tiful edition of MARRY AT'! S NOVELS, the
Publisher of those works will, on the first day ol
July, commence in the game limitless style, an
edition of the celebrated
Etiiwer’s Novels,
Comprising— Pelham, Devereux, Disowned, Eu
gene Aram, Rienzi, Paul Gilford, Last Days of
Pompeii, Falkland, Pilgrims if the Rhine,
Making an uniform edition of nearly 1500 pages
—four hundred more than Marryatt. They
will be published in semi-monthly numbers,
each of which will contain one complete work,
with title-page and cover. The whole series
i will be completed in eight numtiers, and will be
furnished to Subscribers at the extraordinary
low price of three dollars and fifty cents, pava
| ble in advance. They will be sent by mail,
! carefully packed, to any part of the U.’States
: or Canada.
i Three complete sets may be had for ten dol
lars, by directing orders to that effect, enclosing
; the cash (postage paid) to “ Office of Rcpubli-
I cation of Popular Novelists.”

Popular N>celists."’ 5
NOTICE.
I The publication of the above, as stated, will
Ibe commenced in July. The trilling delay that
took place in the regular publication of the
Marryatt Novels, and which was occasioned by
the frequent reprints of the early numbers, and
the uncommon severity of the winter, which
| prevented the making and transporting of pa
per, need not be expected in the Bulwer No
vels. The Subscriber did not anticipate the
very favorable reception that Marryatt would
meet with. He thought the sale would be large
—but not enormous—and is now better able to
judge what number of copies it will be neces
sary to print; added to which, the publication
will be commenced and concluded before the se
verity of winter commences.
In another point, the experience of the pre
vious publication has suggested an improvement
in a future. Where more than one Subscriber
resides in a place, the numbers will be sent flat,
and not folded. They will then be received by
the Subscriber in as good order as if taken im
mediately from the Proprietor’s Office. This
will be a great improvement.
In January next another republication of some
I celebrated modern Novelist, will take place, eith
j er James, Cooper, Irving, or some other of e
i qual repute. It is determined by the present
■ Publisher, that the American public shall be
j furnished with the most beautiful, and nt the
j same time cheap, edition of modern Novelists
! extant.
ivy As soon as an authenticated Portrait of
Captain Marryatt can be obtained, the Subscri
ber will have it engraved for his edition of the
Marryatt Novels.

icinc.E et Hepatic-e, formed by chymicai
analysis and synthesis of.several proximate ve

edged to have totally eclipsed the pretensions
of every other remedy, and superceded the ne

ever the above diseases are found to exist, a
well as in enlargement of the Spleen and in

Among the symptoms of Dyspepsia and Liv

the Liver, when in a torpid condition, carrying

ny persons who were subject to violent attack
of sick head-ache, have been much benefited,
and several perfectly cured in a few weeks by
their use. They are highly recommended as
a preventive and cure of Bilious complaints.
Persons who are subject to that distressing
complaint, sea-sickness, by taking a portion or
two of them a few days previous to embarking
on board the vessel, will be almost certain to
escape it. Females can use them at all pe
riods, without incurring any risk. Persons
going to sea, or to a southern climate, should
bv all means take some of these Pills with them
Their virtues will remain unimpaired foryears
in any climate. No family should be without
these Pills; a portion of them, taken occasion
ally, would be the means of preventing much
suffering from sickness. It is from neglect of
keeping up a regular peristaltic action of the
stomach and bowels, thus suffering to be ab
sorbed and mingled with the blood, unassimi
i luted fluids, that most diseases are produced.
Dr. P. feels confident that no person who gives I
these Pills a fair trial, will ever after feel will
ing to be without them. The testimony of I
thousands speaking in the highest terms of
their efficacy, might be added, but the very ■
; high reputation Dr. P has acquired as the in
ventor of the “Patent Vegetable Aledicince
Stomachica! et llepaticce,' , for the cure of Dys
pepsia and Liver complaints, is thought a suf
ficient guarantee to those wishing to make a
trial of their virtues. They contain not a par
