CLOSING SCENE.
BY THOMAS BUCHANAN READ.
Within the sober reaim of leafless trees
The russet year inhaled the dreamy air ;
Like some tanned reaper in his hour of ease.
When all the fields are lying brown and bare.
The gray barns, looking from their hazy hills
O'er the dim waters, widening in the vales,
Sent down the air a greeting to the mills,
On the dull thunder of alternate flails.
All sights were mellowed, and all sounds subdued,
The hills seemed farther, and the streams sang low ;
As in a dream, the distant woodman hew<_-d
Ilis winter log with many a muffled blow.
The embattled forests, ere while, armed in gold,
Their banners bright with every martial hue,
Now stood, like some sad beaten host of old,
Withdrawn afar in Time’s remotest blue.
On slumberous wings the vulture tried his flight;
The dove scarce heard his sighing mate’s complaint;
And like a star, slow drowning in the light,
The village church vane seemed to pale arid faint.
The sentinel cock upon the hillside crew—
Crew thrice—and all was stiller than before ;
Silent, till some replying warder blew
His alien horn, and then was heard no more.
Where, erst, the jay within the elm’s tall eri at
Made garrulous trouble round her unfledged young;
And where the oriole hung her swaying nest,
By every light wind like a censer swung ;
Where sang the noisy masons of the eaves,
The busy swallows ciroliug ever near,
Foreboding, as the rustic mind believes,
An early harvest, and a plenteous year ;
M here every bird which charmed the vernal feast.
Shook the sweet slumber fr .m its wings at morn,
To warn the reapers of the rosy east ;
All now was songh ss, empty, and forlorn.
Alone, from out the stubble, piped the quail.
And croaked the erow, through all the dreamy
gloom ;
Alone the pheasant, drumming in the vale.
Made echo to the distant cottage loom.
There was no bud, no bloom upon the bowers ;
The spidi is wove their thin shrouds night by night;
Ihe thistle-down, the only ghost of flowers.
Sailed slowly by—passed noiseless out of sight.
Amid all this—in this most cheerless air,
And w here the woodbine sited upon the porch
Its or mson leaves, ns if the year stood there,
Firing the floor with his inverted torch:
Amid oil this, the centre of the scene,
The white haired matron, with monotonous tread,
riied the sw.it wheel, and with her joyless mien,
Sat like a Fate and watched the fl ing thread.
She had known sorrow. He had walked with her,
Oft supped, and broke with her the ashen crust;
And, in the dead leaves, stiff she heard the stir
Os his black mantle trailing in the dust.
\\ bile yet Iter cheek was bright with summer bloom’
Her country summoned, and she gave her all,
An<l twice, war bowed to her his sable plume—
lte-gave the swords, to rust upon the wail.
Re-gave the swords—but not the hand that drew, !
And struck for liberty the dying blow ;
Nor him, who to bis sire and country true,
bell ’mid the ranks of the invading foe.
J->ng, but not loud, the droning wheel went on,
Like the low murmurs of a hive at noon ; 1
Lons, but not, loud, the memory of the gone^,,..
Breathed thr ugh her lips, a sad aaAr ’ ,
’ tremulous i
a tune.
’ “^mSad^wa^snappe and—her head was
bowed—
Life dropped thji distaff through his hands serene ;
And loving neighbors smoothed her careful shroud,
While Death and Winter closed the Autumn
scene.

THE PERILS OF MATRIMONIAL LIFE.
We turned aside from our path for a space,
to visit an object of some curiosity, which is I
one of the “lions” of the “Eastern Shore.” ,
‘Phis is an ancient vault, belonging to a mem, j
ber of the “Custis” family, branch of the same
stock with which Washington intermarried.
It lies upon a fine old farmstead, looking out
upon the bay, and occupies the centre of a
large field, the only prominent object, shelter- j
ed by some old trees. This vault is of white j
marble, elaborately carved in London, in a 1
state of dilapidation. The curious feature
about it consists in its inscription, which runs
thus:
“Under this marble tomb lies the body of the
Hon. John Custis, Esq ,
of the city of Williamburgh and the Parish of Burton,
formerly of Hungar’s Patish, on the Eastern shore of
Virginia, and county of Northampton, aged 71 years, 1
and yet lived but seven years, tchic/t tens the space of j
time he kept a Bachelor's Home at Arington, ou the I
Eastern shore of Virginia.”
This inscription, we are told by another ‘
on the opposite side, was put on the tomb by j
Ilis own positive orders. The gist of it, as our j
lady readers will he pleased to perceive, con- j
sists in the lines we have italicized ; the force (
of which will be better felt and understood
from the additional fact, which does not ap
pear, that this bachelor, who lived in his bach- I
olor condition, was actually married three I
times. Ilis experience, if we are to believe j
his epitaph, was greatly adverse to the idea j
of any happiness in the married state; yet j
how strange that he should have ventured j
thrice upon it! The natural conclusion is, j
that Hon. John Custis was a sjpgular, just, )
conscientious man, who, unwilling to do the ]
sex any wrong by a premature judgment,
gave them a full and fair trial, at the expense
of his own happiness, and pronounced judg
ment only after his repeated experiments.
Tradition had preserved aneedo‘es of the
sort of experience which he enjoyed in the
marriage state, one of which 1 will relate. It
appears that|ie was driving out in his ancient
coach with one of his wives—and to do him
justice we ehust assure the reader that he had
but one af a time—and in the neighborhood
of the very spot to which we ourselves are
tending—Cape Charles. A matrimonial dis
cussion ensued between the pair, which
warmed as they proceeded. The lord grew
angry, the lady vociferous.
“It‘was the diamond,” said one. “And I
insist,” quoth the other, “that it was the
club.” . i
“You will drive me mad!” cried John
Custis.
“I should call that admirable driving!”
retorted the wife.
“By !” he exclaimed, “if you say
another word, I will drive down into the
sea!” They were even upon the beach.
“Another word!” screamed the lady.
“Drive where you please!” she added.
“Into the sea ! 1 can go as deep as you dare
to go any day.”
He became furious, took her at her word,
and drove the horses and chariot into the
k ocean. They began to swim. He held in,
Agmiked into her face, and she laughed in his.
ou 3to P*” demandvu, • xtilt-
whit alarmed
I “You are a devil!” he exclaimed, turning
the horses about, and making for the shore
with ail expedition.
“Poh! pooh!” laughed his tormentor.
“Learn from this fact that there is no place
where you dare to go, where I dare not ac
company j’ou.”
“Even to ?”
“The only exception,” she answered, with
a chuckle ; “there, my dear, I leave you.”
She had conquered.
lie never drove in at Cape Charles again,
but groaned with the recollection of the
seven years’ bachelor life at Arlington.—Cor
respondence of the Charleston Evening yews.
A PLEASANT SURPRISE.
A young man, of eighteen or twenty, a
student in a university, took a walk one
da\ with a professor, who was commonly
called the students’ friend, such was his kind
ness to the young men whom it was his office
| to instruct.
While they were now walking together,
j and the professor was seeking to lead the
j conversation to grave subjects, they saw a
! pair of old shoes lying in the path, which
| they supposed belonged to a poor man who
i had nearly finished hi> day’s work.
‘l'he young student turned to the professor,
I saying :
“Let us play the man a trick : we will hide
: his shoes, and conceal ourselves behind these
i bushes, and watch to see his perplexity when
j he cannot find them.”
“Mv dear friend,” answered the professor,
| “we must never amuse ourselves at the ex
| pense ol the poor, lint you are rich, and
| ma y give yourself a much greater pleasure
:by means of this poor man. Put a dollar in
each shoe, anti then we will hide ourselves.”
The student did so. and then placed him
self, with the professor, behind the bushes
hard by, through which they could easily
watch the laborer, and see whatever wonder
or joy lie might express.
1 fie t oor man soon finished his work, and
came across the field to the path where lie
had left his coat and shoes. While putting
on Lis coat lie slipped one foot into one of
his shoes; feeling something hard, he stoop
ed down and found the dollar. Astonish
ment and wonder were upon his countenance ;
I be gazed upon the dollar, turned it around,
; and looked again and again ; then he looked
| around on all sides, but could see no one.
! Now he put the money in Lis pocket and
l proceeded to put on the other shoe; but what
j was his astonishment when he found the oth
er dollar! His feelings overcame him, he
fell upon his knees and looked up to heaven,
and uttered a loud thanksgiving, in which he
spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his
children, that, from some unknown hand,
would be saved from perishing.
: The young man stood there deeply affected,
| and with tears in his eyes.
“Now,” said the professor, “areyou not
much better pleased than if you had played
your intended trick ?”
“Oh, dearest sir,” answered the youth, “you
; have taught me a lesson now that I will nev
!er forget. I feel now the truth of the words,
which I never before understood, ‘it is bet

but it is about thirty.” “Did I understand
you, madam, that your eldest son was twenty
seven ?” “Yes.” “You must surely, then,
be more than thirty!” “Well, sir. (quite
snappishly,) I told you about thirty. I can’t
tell exactly. It may be thirty-one or two, bit
I am positive it is not over that.”

suddenly spread out the parapluice.

“Why, my dear, 1 expected a very heavy

TO THE LABORING CLASSES!
PIIOPO S A L S
FOR PUBLISHING THE
AMERICAN FARMER ANI) MECHANIC,!
A Weekly Paper, to be Devoted to the
( n<l iistria 1 Interests of the South, j
HOW ate the great industrial intere-t* of the South
to be promoted l What more feasible plan than
the e tabli-hmect of a Journal, devoted to their general
development and support? For the accomplishment of.
j this object—the development and promotion of these
[ ends—the subscri! er propose.* publi-hmg in the city of
| this State furnishing the largest subscription, a paper de
| voted to the interest* of the Laboring Class, in every
sense of that term.
In keeping with the object as intimated above, its aim
| will be to elevate the true arti-an to that dignity of sta
■ tion so ju*tly due those who, to so large an extent, give j
i character to a nation ; and who, by their numerical force,,
| if in no other way, govern the allairs of every enlight- j
j ened people.
And in attempting this, it shall be done with a free
; dom from that prejudice existing to such an extent
) amongst those to whose affairs we thus intend devoting
I our time and energies We wi.-h it done by a home ed
j ueation—a general enlightenment, that banishes blind
! prejudice, and makes room for that enlarged charity
* which forbid* envy, and delights in protecting each hi;
! neighbor in the enjoyment of all lawful rights of prop
j erty or station. An education that teaches indepen
j deuce of thought and action—that enables one to feel
I and act the freeman. We wi*h, in a word, to bring into
! existence a pnper^which shall only prove a benefit to the ‘.
j laborer, whether tfie scene of his operations is in the field
i or the work-shop, and shall injure no one.
We are aware of the fact that the American Me
! chame. published tor mechanics, proved a failure. This
l resulted from more than one cause. Firstly and main
ly, because of a waul of effort amongst those for whom
it labored ! Secondly, because in it* general tone, it
exhibited too little sympathy for the interests of the j
slaveholder. This, however, was more the spirit of its |
correspondents than its editor, though he, unfortunately,
solely, had to shoulder the failure, its cause, its loss. —
La;tiy, the paper, though larger than its patronage ‘

DESIROUS of supplying the large avid continually !
increasing demand for the complete reries of the lie- i
view, iti 12 volumes, now exhausted,and which it would i
require a very large outlay to reprint, the editor has j
been induced to make a selection of all the important j
and valuable papers contained in them Irotn the begin- :
tiing, condensing, re-arranging and completing to date, t
and throwing the subjects, after the manner ot the enev- ]
eiopedias, into alphabetical order. In this manner ev- j
erytbiug of intere-t and importatiee, will be preserved j
in a convenient form for reference ; and the voitunes j
will constitute the only repository for the shelves of the !
library, of such information, which by means ot the j
monthly numbers hereafter will always be brought :
down to dale. j
The volumes will embrace the gist of everything that j
has appeared in the Review relating to the Southern j
and We-tern States, (an imperfect index of which will |
be ioutid at the open ingot ine l 1 ill volume.)
To wit: Their Ui tory, Population,Geography, Sta j
ti-tics ; Agricultural Products of Cotton, Sugar, To
bacco, Hemp, grains, Naval stores, etc.,etc. Mauutai - ;
tures, detailed accounts statistics arid history of all j
branches. Internal Improvements ; contph le statistics I
of railroads, te-nits, profit-, expense, eo t-, advantages, j
rniiesin projection,construction,complet>Hl,et<:. ; plauk

lioration of slavery—origin, hi-tory and defences of sla- ]
very and slave institutions ; the valuable treatises of Har

Si: th and West in all its minute particulars, etc.,to
gether with an historical and statistical sketch of each
of the States and cities —the domestic and foreign trade,
resources, manufactures, etc. of the United States- —the
census returns from 1790, with the complete statistics ot
the census of I*so.
As not one in twenty of” our present subscri ! >ers we
believe have taken the work from the beginning, or
have pre-'-rved the numbers regularly, this edition is re
commended to tn it, and the volumes hereafter will be
bound uniformly with it. And the same care i- taken
now to print an edition of the monthly numbers so large
that a reprint or condensation cau never be required
again. .
An appeal is made to allthesubseribersot the Review \
to sustain this truly southern enterprise, and sustain us j
in the efforts we have been making for six years, almost (
unaided arid alone, in this li-Id.

j For the Removal and permanent Cure of all
diseases arising from an Impure
State of the blood, or habit
of the system.
, The value of this Medicine is now widely known,
; and every day th-- field of it* usefulness is extended
It is approved, and highly recommended by Physicians,
and admitted to be the rno.-t powerful and searching
preparation from the root, that has ever been employed
in medical practice. It> operation extends to the. remo
test parts of the system, and consists in removing dis
eased action m the absorbing and secreting organs In
man, Nature seldom effects, unassisted, the cute of any
virulent disease, hut requires the aid of a stimulant, ai
! tors tive, or antiseptic medicine. In diseases of the. skin
j and flesh, a combination of these three classes of me
dicinal aget ts is highly desirable. Ail these ptopettles
| are combined in this preparation; and in-fead of op
i orating successively upon the system, as they must nee*
; e-sarily do when taken separately, they operate simulta
neously and :t> perfect harmony when administered in
! u,is form. Its touie property strengthens the dige-tion,
| and improves the appetite, its alterative tendency car
: ties off the accumulations of morbid matt -r, and its an
| ti-eptic influence neutralizes the virus, hv which the dis
j ease is fostered. Its uniform success in curing and re
: Moving the various diseases for which it is reeonimcu

Messrs. Sands. —l regard it but jn-tice to yourselves,
] and humanity to all similarly afflicted, to say that your
I Sarsaparilla has cured me of the Chronic laryngitis.
It would Ire difficult tor me to describe the alarming
condition of my throat and vocal organs previous to
the use of your invaluable remedy. During nearly
three years 1 was forced to desi.-t from the public duties
of my profession ; and having made use of a great va
riety of pi-ofo sed specific*, besides submitting to more
than thirty extremely painful caustic applications, I had
abandoned all hope of relief, when, as a dernier resort,
I wa- led to the trial of vour Sarsaparilla.
My. I -ease was ot so long standing, and had so obsti
nately resisted the best medical skill, that 1 am conscious
it cannot truly he said, my‘ faith hath saved me,” for 1
had none : but I rru-t i fee! in some appropriate degree
j grateful for the favorable result above named. 1 have
j now been able to attend to the duties of the pastorate
I for more than a year, and having proved from actual
j experiment the thoroughness of the cure. 1 could not
! fee! justified in longer withholding this statement.
1 am accustomed to keep a,i;.>tfle of your Sarsaparilla
| a* hand, and whenever exposed to colds or extra labor,
{ still use it as a preventive. Very gratefully yours,

Messrs. A. B. fe 1). Sands :
Gentlemen—This is to certify that I have lieen af
flicted more or less ever since my birth, with scrofula,
which continued to increase until la.-t February. In !
January, my bins were so swollen I could not get on a
* or a stocking, and l had several arge sores on mv !
all the time. In this situation. 1 was about to give up
hi de-pair, when 1 was advised to try Sands’ Sarsapa- ;
riiia. 1 had m>t much faith in it, but T -ut to your !
| agents hi \ugii ta, Me, and procured a b- ule, which ■
f <fnf me so much good, that I sent and got another, and i
j continued until I had taken five bottles, j am now per- I
| feetly well. If any person who may read this letter is
afflicted with any disease of Scrofula 1 would most j
! sincerely recommend and advise them to make use of
i Sand-’Sarsaparilla. It any person wishes blither in- j
i formation about my case, by calling upon me, I can !
I convince them of the In-aling power of this medicine. ‘

Among the numerous diseoveri *.s Science has made in j
this generation to facilitate the business of life, increase ;
its enjoyments, and even prolong the term of human ex
i.-'tence—none e.an be name 1 of more real value to man- ;
kind, than this contribution of Chemistry to the Heal- |
ing Ait. A vast trial of its virtues throughout tbl- i
broad country ha j proven, beyond a doubt,.that no medi- |
cine or combination of medicines yet known, can so
surely control and cure the numerous varieties of pulmo- |
nary dis-a-e which have hitherto swept from our mid.-t
thousands and thousands eve:y year. Indeed, there is:
now abundant reason to believe a Remedy has at length j
been found, which cart be relied on to cure, the most j
dangerous affections of the lungs. Our space here will j
not permit us to puhij.-h any proportion of the cures es- j
feted by its use, but we would p esent the following ;
opinions of eminent men, and refer further enquiry to i
the circular which the Agent below named, will always j
