'•V~‘T1 l *fHE MOTHER’S LAMENT FOR THE DEATH OF # HER CHILD. •A dew-drop on a withered leaf. As Lrie-hf, aB lovely, and as bri--f, Thy being was—tlion earnest from heaven, Like dew-drops on the r-ir of pven ; When Hushed the morning’s eailv rav, Thou beanteon« one. wert passed away !

The iteam that lights the crystal tear That gli tens on the woodland rose, Ere yet dissolved to vie * less air, Upwtlrd again to hraven it roes—» Pure as that beam, that tpar tny child,. Wert thou, when last, thou look’dt on me, Aiul thv pale lips so sweetly smiled. As if death wore n<> frown for thee; And then—(O God 1 whv hast thou dpalt Such anguish totbp w idow’s breast ?) While mutely bv thv couch I knelt. And thy cold wheek to mine was prevt. Without a sigh, without a groan. •Thv spirit fled—my sou ! my sou ! JFhou art in vonder heaven now, A chp'-nhnear the Eternal throne— Oh 1 tearh mv heart to bear the blow That leaves me here on earth alone! 1 should not ween—hut tears will flow, - Whene’er my thoughts are backward cast : That thou art blessed T know—I know— But all !

Thou canst not quell tb’immortal soul! .And while the tempest round me rages, I know there's rest, at last, in heaven ; ^>Iy faith is on the Rock of Ages. The glorious promise God hath given. frojn‘The Incidento! Perm* of Will,am P. S. Flair.’’ I returned—his look was no mere lofty nor ltis step proud ; his broken frame was like some ruined tower; his hairs were white and scattered, and his eye gazed vacantly on what was passing around him. Tlie vigour of his intellect waited, and of all thaf he had gained by study nothing re mained. He feared when there was no danger and when there was no sorrow lie wept. His memory was decayed and treacherous, and showed him only broken images of the glory that was departed.— His iiouse was to him like a strange land and his friends were counted as his ene mies; and bethought himself strong and healrhful while his foot tottered on the verge off tlte grave. Hp said of his son— lie is my brother; of his daughter—I know her not; and he inquired what was his own name. And one who supported his last steps, and ministered to his many wants, said to. me as I looked on the mel ancholy scene,—“ Let thine heart receive instruction, for thou hast seen an end of all earthly peifertion. I have seen a beautiful female, treading the first stages of youth, and entering joy fully into he pleasures of life. The glance of her eye was variable and sweet and on her cheek trembled something like the first blush of the morning-; her lips moved, and there was harmony ; and when she floated in the dance, her light form like the aspen seemed to move with everv breeze. I returned—hut she was not in the dance. I sought her in the gav circle of her companions, but I found her not. Her eve sparkled not there— the music of her voice was silent—she rejoiced on earth no more. I saw a (rain sable and slow—paced, who bore sadlv to an opened grave what once was animate and beautiful. They paused as they ap proached, and a voice broke the awful si lence : “ Mingle ashes with ashes, and dust with its original dust. To the eari'n whence she was #rs! taken, consign we *he body of «.ur sister.” .They covered her with the damp soil, and the solid $!ods of the valley ; and the worms crowded in to her silent abode. Yet one sad mourner lingered, to cast himself upon the grave and as he wept he said—“there is no beauty, or grace, or loveliness that cbn- tinueth in man; for this is the end of all his glory and perfection. I have seen an infant with a fair brow, anc^a frame like polished ivory. Its limbs were pliant in its sports ; it rejoiced, and again it wept ; but whether irs glowing cheek dimpled with smiles, or its blue eye w’as brilliant with tears, still, I said to my heart, “it is beautiful.” It was like the first pure blossom, which some cherished plant has shot forth whose cup is filled with a dew drop, and whose head reclines uuon its parent stem. I again saw the child when the lamp of reason-first dawned in its. min I. Its soul was gentle and peaceful ; its eye sparkled with joy as it looked round on this good and pleasant world. It ran swiftly in the ways of know ledge it bowed its ear to instruction, it stood like a lamb before its j teacher. It was not proud fir envious, or! 1500 SADDLES, EAGLE TAVERJV, ON KEYNOLDS-STB.EET, AUGUSTA.

INMMmoMi OF THE Southern Agricvltural st. 4 T HE want of a work to which our planters could refer for information, relative to the Agriculture of the Southern section of the Union has long been felt, and has long been submitted to as a necessary evil for which no remedy was at hand. With a sufficiency of talents* and of en terprise, to conduct experiments to draw infer ences and to detail them, yet have we presented to the world, the spectacle of a high minded and enterprising agricultural community, destitute of original agricultural works, and deprnding sole ly on original communications, or Foreign publi cations for all our knowledge onjhese subjects.— Whilst others have carefully collected and recor ded the experience of their practical Farmers, we have permitted the hard earned knowledge of our farmers toperish with them. Whilst others have been straining every nerve in the cause, we have been mere lookers on, wh.lst they have advanced rapidly, we have been stationary, or at best have progressed but slowly.

And when I looked upon u, I remembered 'hat our sa viour said, “ Except ye become ps - ' little childern, ye cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.” But the scene has chanced, and I saw a man whom the world called honorable, and many waited for his smile.' They pointed out the fields that ware his, and talked of the silver and cold that he had 'gathered ; they admired the stateliness of his domes, and extolled the honor of his family. And his heart answeted secretly “ by mv wisdom have I cotfen all this ;” i so he returned no thanks to God, neither did he fear or serve him. And as I passed along I heard the complaints of the la bourers who had reaped down the fields, and thp cries of the poor whose covering he had taken away; but the sound of feasting and revelry was in his apartments and ihe unfed bejrgar came totterinc from his door. But he considered not that ihe cries of the oppressed were continually enterinc in the ears of the most High.— And when I knew that this man was once the teachable child that I had loved—the beautiful infant that I gazed upon with de- licht—I said in my bitterness, “ I have seen an end to all perfection and I laid my mouth in the dust.
