THE WiSBIIHIJiG ZEPHYR.
From whence, gentle Zephyr, art thou coming ’
From the wild waves of the deep blue see 1
Why art thou ever, ever roaming ?
Is there no place of rest for thee ?
I know thou art here, for I feel thee breathing
Soft on my cheek as an infant’s sigh,
The waving flowers and the light vines wreathing,
Tell me that thou art wandering by.
“ I come, I come from earth's fairest berwerw,
My breath is fraught with the scent of flowers,
My voice with the music of nature teems,
The songs cf birds, and the guelr of streams ;
I catch from the maiden her fragrant sighs,
I play with the clouds, and kiss the skies,
And I mtiWJr-a requiem wild o'er those.
Who have sunk to their dreamless, deep repose;
I steal to the captive's lonely cell.
And his heart is soothed ere I bid farewell,
For I bathe his brow, and round him fling
A thousand sweets from my perfumed wing,
And thoughts of home, and of happier years
Sweep o’er his heart till it melts to tears.
And thus I do wander about at will
’TiU I hear that small voice “peace be still,"
And then I sink with a sigh to rest
Like a soft child lull’d on its mother's breast;
But I am not quiet, e'en in sleep,
For I softly breathe o’er the placid deep,
And a wavelet here and there will tell
That a Zephyr ■will, if it can, rebel;
Bnt now, fair maiden, I come to thee
With a wing as light as thy heart is free,
Thro’ thy silken tresses I'll sport and play—
And then will I wander away, away.”
Oh! why dost thou breathe, soft Zephyr, of going 1
Can'stthou not linger forever here ?
Here are cooling streams, that are softly flowing,
And flowers the brightest that deck the year.
The spirits that dwell in those flowers are eleeping,
For the sun in his glary hath past away;
And starry eyes thro’ the sky are peeping,
I love thy soft whispers—light Zephyr, stay.
“ Oh'. think not to lure me with flowers and streams,
Or stars that shine from yon world of dreams.
For stare, and flowers, wherever I go.
More brightly shine and more fragrant blow.
For I never waste my sweet warm sighs
Save in sunny lands, beneath azure skies,
Where each blossom receives a fresher hue
As I brush from its leaves the sparkling dew ;
There are sweetness and music wherever I be,
For I am a minstrel wild and free,
And a rustling is heard 'mid the moaning grass,
And a reed-like whisper where’er I pass,
For things that have long seemed hush'd as death
Will wake and thrill to my balmy breath
With music sweet as the chanted song
Os the flashing waves as they dance along;
But now I am seeking some bright, bright clime,
Where fruits hang rich in their golden prime.
Where the soft low note of the mournful dove
Is heard like a plaintive tale of love.
Yet warbling birds, nor fruit, nor flowers,
Can keep me long in earthly bowers,
For fleeting and light I dance in air
When earth is green, and skies are fair;
'Twould be a strange thing for a Zephyr to dwell
With maidens or flowers—farewell, farewell.”
AMELIA.
Advice to a Young Lady alter
Her marriage.
BY JUDGE HEHTTELL, OF NEW YOBK.
“You are now married ; and as is usual on
such occasions, your friends and acquaintance
profess to wish you joy. Many will do so as
an act of common civility, feeling little or noth,
ing of the sentiment which the words import.
When, however, I express a solicitude for your
welfare, I think I am entitled to the credit of
meaning something more than the performance
of an empty ceremony. But, when congrat
ulating you, 1 know no better way of proving
the sincerity of my professions, than by tender
ing you my advice as to some of the means I
deem it necessary to be pursued in order to ren
der your new situation a matter ol real felici
tation.
“Young people are very apt to think, if they
think at all on the subject, that when they get
married their cares are all scattered to th<-
wiuds, and that their happiness is secured for
life. So far from the truth is such a thought,
that, when reality awakens them from the
dream of uninterrupted bliss, they find their
sorrows certainly doubled, and whether th i:
joys are to be increased »r not. depends tn stiy
on themselves ; —and they will still find caus
es enough to interrupt their happiness, though
each should do their best to prevent or coun
teract them. One thing is certain, that the
married state may be made more happy tha
the single life, or it may become a state of
perfect wretchedness ; and whetheryour pres
ent situation is to be better than that you ex
changed for it, depends much, or mostly on
yourself. It is therefore a matter first in or
der, as well as the first in importance to you.
that’you should endeavor to ascertain the
means best calculated to secure a coii’inuaice
of that happiness which doubtless you expec
ted to experience in the wedded life. On this
subject I will endeavor to assist you.
“That you were happy during ihe period
spent iu courtship, you will not deny. That
you were so, arose from the consciousness that
you loved, and were beloved in return, and
frsrn the pleasing hope or inoral certai ity you
would attain the object of your affections.
The hope is realized, and that you nre happy
now you need no one to tell you. It is the
reciprocated affections of your husband which
make you happy—it is yours which make him
so; hence, mutual affections constitute the
eource of connubial bliss ; and it is equally
true that the infecility of the married state
follows the loss of those affections. On the
continuance of the affections, then, no less
than on the choice of a husband, depends your
happiness in the wedded life. The means to
insure a continuance of those affections is the
subject next in course for your consideration.
“So numerous are the instances in which
married people have lost their affections for
each other, that the unreflecting have hastily
concluded that it is easier to acquire than re
tain them. If this be true, it goes to prove
that you should be more assiduous to retain
the affections of your husband, than you were
to gain them. But it is not true to the extent
which many believe. It is very unphilosophi
cal to argue that like causes will not produce
like effects, or that the effect 'will cease th ugh
the cause be continued. The truth most prob
ably is, that, when the affections of married
people become extinct, it is owing to then
neglect to continue the causes by which those
affections were first elicited. What man in his
senses, if he knew the disposition of the la
dy he addieased, would fall in love with a
sour,sulky, brawling.ill-natured woman? It
is the opposite qualities which he sees, or
thinks he sees, in the lady of his choice, of
which he becomes enamored. It is a coun
tenance illumined with smiles, eyes beaming
with intelligence, a mouth flowing with sweet
ness and good nature—m short, a deportment
indicative of modesty, mildness, and benigni
ty, to which he pays the homage of his heart.
If such were the cause®, by which were quick
eued the tenderness of the lover, rely on it that
nothing short of those will insure the affections j
of the husband ; for.wheu the causes subside,;
the effect must necessarily cease, and then
misery and wretettedness will become the in
mates of your household.
“More of the happiness of married people
is involved in their conduct during the first
year, than in any succeeding period of their
connubial association. —There are probably
but few instances where persons newly mar
ried do not discover, and that too in an early (
period of their matrimonial relation, each in
the other, some trait of character which had
before escaped their observation—and much,
very much, of the felicity of their lives depends
on the course they may pursue on those occa
sions. Should the newly discovered faults or
follies of the husband appear to ba such as to
preclude the hope of their being corrected,
however unpleasant the task, the wife’s easiest
course will be to endeavor to accommodate
herself to them. If she cannot bring her cir
cumstances to her mind, the alternati e is to
try to tring her mind to her circumstances.
Custom and habit tend to lessen the effect of
evils which cannot be destroyed ; and common
prudence will induce her to conceal from i.er
husband the knowledge of those faults of his
which she cannot expect to obviate, because
it will not increase his affections for her, should
ho think that hers for him are in the wane.
If a woman would correct the faults or follies
ofher husband, she can only do it by means
of her influence over him—that she has, in
general, no other influence than that which
arises from liis affections for her—that the
continuance of these depends on the contin
uance of the causes by which they were first
kindled: and you may rest assured, that what
ever female patience, mildness, good humor,
and tender affection cannot accomplish with a
husband, frowns, sulks, sharp reproofs, and
ill-natured reproaches can never achieve.
By the former he may be soothed and softened
into complaisance and willingly led to aban
don a foible or a fault ; but the latter will in
evitably tend to sour his mind, to curdle all the
milk of human kindness in his bosom, warm
his resentment, excite his opposition, and con
firm him in erior.
“My acquaintance with your husband has
indueed me to believe that his whole heart and
soul accompany his affections and aversions ;
and that depends much or mostly upon the
exercise of your prudence and discretion
whether he v ill be to you a kind and tender
husband, or ai unpleasant end uninteresting
associate.
“Perhaps you are now about to ask, if the
wife must make all and the husband no sacri
fice to promote connubial concord and domes
tic peace ? I mean no such thing—on the
contrary, so much depends on your mutual
endeavors, that, without the husband’s the
wife’s cannot succeed. But the path I have
pointed out for you to take is the surest, nay,
theonly one to be pursued to produce or con
tinue in him the disposition to a correspond! :g
course of measures. Can ihat be called a
sacrifice which promotes a domestic bliss ?
As well may he be said to sacrifice his money
who gives it for a larger sum.
‘‘You will bi disappointed if you expect
your husband’s face always to be the sporting
place of smilesand graces, or his mind at all
times attuned to the soft melody ofharmouious
strains.
“As well expect eternal sunshine, cloudless skies,
As men forever temperate, calm, and wise.”
oiCkiteSS, uisiippuiiitment, a id perplexity in his
business, and a thousand nameless causes can
not but sometimes operate to disturb his mind,
depress his spirits, and becloud his visage ;
producing perhaps unusual taciturnity, or a
strain of language nbt remarkable for its mel
lifluent cadences. This is not the occasion
on which he is to be met with a corresponding
deportment on the part of his wife. 11 is rath
er the time when the exercise of all her phil
osophy is indispensable; a time when her
temper is to be tried, her heart probed, and het
affections pu f ‘.o the test; the time when, by
her kind, soft, and sympathising language, and
a countenance and conduct bearing testimony
to its sincerity, he has to be comforted at least
with the reflection that, he has a friend in ad
versity as well as in prosperity—a partner in
his sorrows as in his joys. I may possibly be
singular in the opinion, but I could never <u
tertain the fullest confidence even in the vir
tue of that female whose sympathies could not
be excited by the sorrows of others ; and sure
ly a wife can never appear so interesting and
amiable in the eyes of her husband, as when
be sees her tn Iting with kindness 1: him, and
sorrowing for his sorrows. In short, it should
be the object of your unremitted attention to
make him feel that his home is a reuge from
his cares, a sanctuary from the frowns of ad
verse fortune, and he will seek it as naturally
as he would desire his own felicity. But,
when a husband ceases to regard his home as
the happiest place on earth, he will shun it
as he would fly his troubles ; and as it often
happens, will take the road to ruin, and seek,
at the alehouse, the gambling table, or more
indecent places, a refuge from domestic broils,
the coiistqm uces of which, 'hough often seen,
ar too disgusting for detail.
“It could not be deemed a compliment to
your husba id’s taste to suppose he will be en
tirely indifferent as to your dress, or pleased to
see you careless in this respect, either at home
or abroad. Those wives have not reflected
much who think a slip-shod slattern hazards
nothing ofher husband’s good opinion ; or that
the lack of neatness i i domestic dress is not a
certain indication of her indolence and the
disordered aspect ot her habitation. If your
husband loves you, he could not but feel some
what of disappointment, should the personal
appearance of his wife b much mferioi to that
<>f the girl he courted, or to the generality of
females with whom you may happen to associ
ate. He cannot but make comparisons, ami
it should be your care that they should not
result in your disadvantage.
“Extravagance in dress should also be avoid
ed, as ill-calculated to increase the respecta
bility of a married lady, and it sometimes oc
casions surmises nowise creditable to the fe
male character. Indeed, you ought, by co i
suiting vour husband’s wishes in this respect,
to leave him not a iloubt that your cress is
fashioned to meet his approbation more than
to attract the gaze, or gain the admiration j>t
any and every other person. It may be thought
pcrlFips, by some, that the dre-is of the wife
is, to the husband, a matter of very trifling con
sequence : but rely upon it, the effect of dis
regarding his opinion on this subject is not
al vays wholly unimportant.
•‘You h ive doubtless seen and heard enough
to know that nothing short ofcrime more im
pairs the respectability ot a married lady, than
often being seen at public places u attended
bv her husband. Should yours have no desire
to be thronged with company at home, nor
disposition to seek it abroad ; or should you
uuforta.lately aspire to live in a style inconsis
tent with his feelings or resources, I have al
ready said enough to show you that no action
of yours, savoring of opposition—no look sour
ed with disappointment, uor expression liiict r
ed with reproach, will dispose him the more
to gratily your wishes. That such means
cannot succeed with a man of sense and spirit,
is us obvious as the indiscretion through which
they were adopted.
“Abrupt contradiction of any one, though
sometimes the effect of an unguarded moment,
is generally regarded as a sure indication of
low vulgar breeding, but such conduct in a
wife towards a husband seldom fails to render
him ridiculous, and her contemptible in the
estimation of all who may happen to witness
such an instance of her folly and imprudence.
Much of the respectability of the wife is reflec
ted from the husband ; and when she, bv her
indiscretion, lessens his, she ia sura to sink
her own in public estimation.
“To conclude ; I have voluntarily and per
haps officially, offered you my counsel, and
the best my judgment can afford. Mv motive
is good ; but it depends on yourself whether
or not it will be useful to you-—But keep this
letter by you, and if, at the end ofthree or four
years, you shall think yourself not benefit.ted
by its contents, you have my assent to burn it.
“That the blessings of health, peace, and
prosperity may attend you through life, is the
sincere wish and earnest hope of your friend.”

From the Yankee Farmer.
MANGEL WURTZEL.
The culture of this root is extended among
us; and although different opinions are given
of its value, when compared with the Swedish
turnip, the preference for one dues not neces
sarily preclude the other. They thrive best
on different soils—the mangel wurtzel does
bbst in a deep, moist, clayey loam, and the
Swede on a dry soil, iueli i:.g to sand.
The mangel wurtzel is a species of beet, of
which there are varieties, differing principal
ly in color. The flesh colored is preferred,
as affording the largest produce; though the
white species, when of moderate size, has
been found to contain the most saccharine
matter. The soil for this crop shou'd be rich
and deep, and if trench-ploughed the bettei.
as roots cannot be expected to grow to a fail
size below the stirred earth. Trench-plough,
ing is merely ploughing two furrows deep, by
following with a second plough, in the track ot
the first. The surface should be perfectly
pulverized with the harrow. The seeds
should be sown in drills, at 18 to 4 inches
apart, the latter being preferred, as it will per
mit the crop to be dressed with the cultivator.
They may be sown with Robbins’, or the com
mon drill barrow, or dropped by the hand in
shallow furrows previously drawn, and then
covered an inch or an inch and a half deep.
A seed will often produce two or more plants,
all but one of which should be drawn out, and
the plants thinned to 8 or 12 inches whenever
they are so far advanced as to warrant it.
Some persons strip the side leaves to feed to
cows, when these have become large, but it is
believed that this is done at the expense of the
future growth of the root. But the crop should
b harvested when the plants have matured,
which is indicated fiy the lower leaves chang
i g their cclor, as after this period, as was
ascertained by Chaptai. a portion of their sac
charine matter is transformed into potash, and
the I’eotS become Jess n'm Hi tubs ana piiata'bte.
If sown the 20th to 25th May, the crop will
have time to mature early in October. The
product is generally equal, and sometimes lar
ger than that of rutabaga—often amounting
to 50 tons the acre, but 20 tons, or 600 bushels
is a fair crop. This root may be profitably
grown in the middle and northern Slates, tho’
the extreme North is not so well adapted to it
as to the Swedish turnip. The whole process
of culture consists in thinning the plants, keep
ing down the weeds, and the surface of the
soil mellow. They do not require to be earthed
or hilled. Tin- seed may also be sown with a
dibble, thus: take a strip of plank, 2 or 3 feet
long, and 3 inches wide; bore a hole in the
ce> tre, and fix in it an upright, handle, 3 feet j
long, with a cross piece at top to hold bv; then
bore holes at 1 1-2 inches distance, and fit in 1
pins, to project 11-2 inches from .’he bottom, I
sharpened at the I >wer points. With this the
planter makes holes upon the line of the row
with great expedition; a boy follows, drops a
seed in each hole, and coversit with his toes.
If 2 feet long upon the base, every impression
of the dibble will make a dozen holes. Seeds
planted with the dibble are most apt to grow,
as they can readily be planted at the required
depth, and be covered with fine mould.
The roots may be preserved in the winter
in cellars or pits, like rutabaga, though they
are less hardy. They are readily eaten by
all farm stock, and are found highly nutritious;
though all seem to agree in this, that they
should not be fed without other food, as bay,
straw, or other roots, and should at no time
constitute more than two-thirds of the food of
a beast. As we have remarked, different
opinions prevail as to the comparative merits [
ol this root. Experiments, made under the i
authority of the Highland Society, in feeding |
with potatoes, mangel wurtzel, and rutabaga, <
for three months, produced a like result, as j
to increase of flesh, but dealers thought the I
beef of the cattle fed upon rutabaga some 3 or i
4 dollars a beast better than the other. The !
Doncaster Agricultural Committee, thus sum ;
up the advan’ages of cultivating this crop:
“It is more sure to plant; being very little
liable to the fly or grub. It will produce more
crop. It is off the land earlier. It is useful
as a change of fallow crop, when the land is
tired of turnips ; and can be grown on soils on
which they cannot be raised.”
O • the other hand, in favor of Swedish ur
nips, it may be said:
“That the weeding and thinning are far less
expensive. That there is rather more time
allowed for fallowing in the spring.—That the
succeeding crop is better than after mangel
wurtzel; and
“That cattle feed best on Swedish turnips
when they are fed alone.”
And, we add, that with us they may be
grown as a second crop after clover.
It should be borne in mind, that the price of
labor in Britain is much less than with us;
that the mangel wurtzel crop requires great
labor, in May and June, 1> -fore the seed of the
Swedish turnip is sown; and that this labor,
with us, is a matter of no little moment. It is
probably advisable that the farmer should sow
the beet or turnip, or proportions ot each, ac
cording to the quality of the soil which is to be
appropriated to them.
A WAY TO KILL CROWS.
Mr. Editor-— I recollect to have read a few
years since ot a plan adopted by a boy in this
State to rid his father’s corn-field of that mis
chievous bird the crow, and to replenish his
purse at the same time with the price of their
heads. (I here was then a bounty by law fori
killing them, and I do not know but the law is
now in force.) He soaked some corn in ne v
rum, strewed it about he field in convenient
spots, the crows ate it, became groggy, and,
as groggy men too often do, fell an easy pr<-\
to their designing enemy.
The story seemed to be reasonable, and
perhaps it will be well to remind our farmers
of'it. If they should be induced to try this
method of getting rid of a great plague, the ex-
m t.lt r v n
pense would be very small compared with the ■
be ( fits which would result to them if it should
succeed; and this is one of the very few ways
i which new rum can be used by man to do
him no harm. A pint of now rum will cost:
about as much ns a charge or two of powder
and shot, and wi.t undoubtedly intoxicate agood
number of birds, (for it is fair to presume their
heads are not so well seasoned to the stuff as
some of our acquaintances’ heads are) and
they may then betaken and their necks wrung
and thus be finished. I wish ardent spirit
might never more be put. to a worse use than
Ins, and presume it will be an inoffensive one
to the most fastidious “ te-tataller.”
Yours, Arc.

TTAVING received a number of
ft* XX communications from individ
-5 J jJKS? uals, making inquiries respecting my
Brick Machine, invented by Calvin
Waterman, and now in successful operation in
this place, I take this method of answering
them—l invite all who feel disposed to purchase
rights, to come and see the operation ot the ma
chine, and if there be any one who says he is
disappointed in his expectations, [bind mysel
to pay the expense ofhis trip. Ido not expect
to sell a right to any one without their first hav
ing seen the machine ; but in order to a£ord an
idea of its value, I annex the following certifi
cates, one of them signed by two of the most
experienced brick masons in the Southern
States. In my absence from Macon,the Editors
of the Messengur will act as my authorized
agents.
T. L. SMITH.
We having witnessed the performance of Mr.
T. L. Smith’s new Brick Machine, invented by
Calvin Waterman, now in operation in this
place, take pleasure in recommending it to the
public. The fact of its performance is its best
recommendation. We timed it, and find that with
stew moulds and inexperienced hands, it made
an the rate of two thousand three hundred and
sixty-eight brick per hour. By moulding - ten
hours in the day, it would therefore turn out
twenty-three thousand six hundred per day
It requires six boys to bear off’, and four to sand
tile moulds, &C.—together with four grown
men. Thus fourteen hands are suffi-iont to
make the above named quantity of the most
beautiful brick per day.
JOHN SPRINGER.
DAVID F. WILSON.
Macon, April 11, 1837.
I have witnessed the performance o! Mr. The
oderick L. Smith’s new Brick-making Machine,
just-put into operation in this place ; and feel no
hesitation in pronoucing it a great and useful
improvement on any other method of brick mak
ing t have ever seen, both as to the quality of
the brick and expedition in making. By request
I timed the machine for half an hour; the result
of that trial shows that with 11 hands the ma
chine will turn out of beautiful and well tem
pered brick 2368 in an hour, or about 40 to the
minute.
