Let them sing who may of the battle fray*, And the deeds that have long since past ; Let them chant in praise of the tar ** hose days Are spent on the ocean vast; I would render to these all the worship you please I woulJ honor them even now, lint I'd give far more from my heart's full store To the cause of the Good Old Plough. 11. Let them laud the notes, that in music floats Through their bright and their glittering hails- | While the amorous tnirl of the hair’s bright curl Round the shoulder of Beauty falls; But, dearer to me is the song from the tree, And the rich and the blossoming bough ; Oh ! these are the sweets which the rustic greets As he follows the Good Old Plough. 111. Then how jocund tiie song as it comes along Front the Ploughman's lusty throat ; Did the hunter's shout, ever yet give out To the brown woods a merrier no*e ? Tito’ be follow* a u bound,yet his day is crowned With a triumph ns good, I trow, As though antlered head at his feet lay dead, Instead of the Good Old Plough. IV. lull many there be that we daily see With a sollish and hollow pride, W hom the ploughman's lot, in his huntblccot, With a scornful look deride ; Vet I'd rather take, aye a hearty shake From his hand, than to wealth I’d how ; For the honest grasp of that hand’s rough clasp Hath stood by the Good Old Plough. V. All honor lie then to these gray old men, When at last they are bowed with toil ; Their warfare then o'er, why they battle no more For they've conquered the stubborn soil. And the chaplet each wears are his silver hairs And ne’er shall the victor's brow With a laureled crown to tho grave go down, Like these sons of the Good Old Plough. From IF. B. Seubrook's Essay. liolntiou of Crops. The subject of a rotation of corps, it is hazarding but little to assert, is not under stood in the cotton-growing region ; nor perhaps in the United States. The tin soundness of the excretionary theory of De Candolle lias at length been satisfactorily determined by a Scotch chemist,* who has re-established the principle, that every p'ant abstracts from the soil its specific aliment, of which, by long cultivation in u single crop it may be wholly deprived; and that unless this aliment lie restored, it must remain unfit for profitable cultivation. When arable land is allowed to lie fallow for two or three years, its productive ca pacity becomes greatly improved. By the rotting of the grass,t which absorbs no pot ash, and tho decomposition of the sub stances by which saline ingredients are let free, it is again enabled to reward the labors of the husbandman. The fact and the reason soon led to a broader field of examination. It is now known that the injury to the land from a green crop is less than if it had been allowed to ripen. According to the chemical researches of M. Laussurc, the ashes of the plants of peas (Pisum Pativum) when green, con tain only 17.2d per cent of phosphate of lime, but that when ripe, they yield 22 per cent. The wheat plant which held 10.73 per cent in flower, contained 11.73 per cent in its matured state. The same result was obtained from other plants ab sorb the most from the atmosphere ; plants having the smallest system of leaves most exhaust the soil of common nutritive mat ter. Plants withdrawingthesamealiment from the soil will mutually injure one another, if grown beside each other ; on the contrary, if they absorb substances of different kinds, they may not only advan tageously be cultivated side by side, but be reared in succession. \Y here potash abounds, tobacco might be made to follow wheat, or wheat tobacco. In the cereals phosphates are invariably present ; the narcotic plants do not require these salts. The wool of cotton subtracts from the soil a mere trace of the phosphate of potassa ; the seed 31.31 per cent.; the wool 23.41 per cent, of the phosphate of litne ; the seed Gl.Ol percent. The ash of the cot ton seed moreover has treble the plios phoric acid, (the most vahied mineral con stituent of a soil) possessed by fibre. Corn takes from the soil less potassa and lime, bui more phosphoric acid, than cotton; and sweet potatoes more potassa but less lime and phosphoric acid. The main crops of the planter therefore, absorb the same in gredients ffpin the soil, though in different proportions. The practice of planting oats on land set apart for cotton is obvi ously injuriovs, especially if the cation stalks be removed or burnt ; for not only do you prevent a large return to the soil of the very elements it most needs, but a crop succeeds which robs it of a consider able portion of potash.j; "Alfred Gyde, who has shown that the minute excretions of plants have the same composition with their sap. He watered plants with a solu tion of their excretions nut only without injury, but to their manifest benefit tGrass contains carbon 45 per cent ; hydrogen 5 ; oxygen 33 ; nitrogen 1 and ashes f) per cent. IThe reason why oats exhausts land is here explained Acute Yankee lias invented a hen’s nest, in the bottom of which there is a kind of trap door, through which the egg. when laid, immediately drops, and the hen looking lound and perceiving none, soon lays another. C'iicerfi l Mcsic.—The poet Carpani once asked his friend Hudyn, “ How it happened that his chuich music was always of an animating, cheerful, and even gay description.” To this, Hadvn’s answer was, “i cannot make it otherwise. I write accordilig to the thoughts which 1 feel; when 1 think upon God, my heart is so full of joy, that the notes dance and leap, as it were from my pen ; and since God has given me a cheerful heart, it will be easily forgiven me that 1 serve him with a cheerful spirit.” Oh ! how many ties there are to bind the soul to earth. W hen the strong est are cut asunder, and the spirit feels cast loose from every bond which connects it with mortality, how imperceptibly does one little tendiil after another become en twined about it, and and aw it back with gen tier power. BTT* A few weeks since a good humored Irishman applied to an English merchant to discount a bill of exchange for him at rather a long, though not unusual date, and the merchant having casually remark ed that, the bill bad a great many days to run : “ That’s true,” replied the Irishman, “ but then you and n’t consider how short the days are at this time of the year.” • ■ ■■rrwrwi 'ini r—n i rrxarTU":. uarr-c- t: 3jr-trr~m City Oflicers.

Ist Monday, Baker Jefferson PROSPECTUS OF T h c € r is s si and e r . rfiMIE undersigned have adopted the above, as 5 the significant title of a Monthly Paper, which with sufficient encouragement, they pro pose to publish in the City of Macon, to be de vot ’d to the interests of Temperance, Educa tion and Religion. The plan ofthis work was first suggested, in view of the rapidly growing numbers within the ranks of the Hons of Temperance, and the in creasing demand for light, touching the objects and movements of this benevolent and Rourisb ing“Order.” We believe that a Divine agency is manifest in the startling progress and triumphs of this great moral organization. It is God's work. He is now summoning his “embattled liosts'’fora crusade against the greatest foe that ever scourged the earth. Temperance, there fore, will stand prominent upon G«r banner. But while we march under the “triple flag,’’ and solicit the patronage and fostering care of “The Sons,” yet, we shall claim the privilege of striking some good blows for Education and Religion. “The Order of the Sons,” we regard under God, as the handmaid ofthe Church, the harbinger of Religion—'“preparing the way ofthe Lord.” We shall spare no pains to make The dnisndci* a werk ot standard merit ; to give it a decided character for u-efulness, and to make it a work interesting to general readers. CONDITIONS : The Unixadt'r will be issued in Month ly numbers, containing Sixteen quarto pages each, at One Dollar per annum, parable on the delivery of the first number. The Second Num ber will in no case be sent to a subscriber unless the subscription price shall have been forwarded previously to the time of its issue. Persons acting as agents will receive ten per cent, upon all amounts remitted. Upon the re ception of twenty cash subscribers, 'he amort shall also be entitled to a copy of the work as a bonus It is especially desired that those who may become agents, or may interest themselves in obtaining subscribers, will net immediately, and forward such names as may ho pledged, at the earliest possible and :tc, as it is our wash in make our first issue hy the Ist of February if the requisite patronage can lie secured. Editors who may he,friendly to the enterprise will oblige us by giving ibis ProspeetTis ;fn inser tion, and if desired they shall receive an evtia copy of The Crusader Communications may be addressed to cither of the Editors. W. II EI.LISON, L II MYERS, J R. THOMAS, _ , G H. HANCOCK. Macon, December 30, 1818. TIIE GLOBE : .1 Congressional, Agricultural and Literary .\eicspapcr. Editors of the Congressional Globe pro-j i. pose anew publication. To deserve the patronage which Congress has accorded to their reports ofits debates, in receiving and making the Globe the official register, they intend to add promptitude to whatever merit lias hitherto re commended the work. They will publish a Daily Globe, to record the proceedings and de bates as they occur ;and a Congressional Globe periodically, as heretofore, embodying the re ports of Congress separate from the miscellaneous matter which will accompany them in the dpily print. To fill the sheet of the daily newspaper, it is designed to gather the news fr»in till quar ters, and complete the contents by drawing from every source that may be of most interest among literary novelties, and of greatest utility in scien tific and practical works on agriculture. For material, the leading journals and periodicals of France and Great Britain, treating of such sub jects. will be consulted, and, it is hoped, advan tageously used. Original essays, especially on topics connected with agriculture, will be obtain ed frpin the most enlightened and practical men of our country. The Globe, as a newspaper, and as a vehicle of information and amusement in other respec's, will be under the charge of Francis P. Blair and James C. Pickett. The Congressional department and business concerns of the paper will be under the management of John C. Rives. The public are familiar with Blair and Rives as connected with the press. In introducing Mr. Pickett as one of the concern, they will be al lowed to say a few words of him. lie is a gen tleman favorable known to the Government, for talent and judgment which distinguished bis di plomatic service while connected with the mis sion to Quito ; and more recently when Charge d’Affaires to Peru. From bis pen mainly the Globe will derive the selections and translations from the French journals and periodicals, the comments on them, and the other literary articles which will be found among its chief attractions. The Globe will be published daily during the session of Congress, and Weekly the balance of the year, and will undergo distribution in the form of a Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe and an Appendix. The Weekly Globe will he the vehicle of the miscellaneous articles of the daily print, with a synopsis of the Congressional proceedings. The Congressional Globe will embody, as it has done for the last sixteen years, Congression al pioceedings and debates exclusively. The Appendix will embrace the revised speeches separately, and the messages of the President of the United States, and the reports of the Heads ofthe Executive Departments. The Congressional Globe and Appendix will be published as fast as the proceedings of Con l gress will make a number. Subscribers may ex pect one number of each a week during the first four weeks of a session, mid two or three num bers of each a week afterwards, until tho end of the session. Nothing of a political party aspect will appear in the Globe save that which will be found in the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming to be an impaitial vehicle for all sides, cannot maintain its character if the editorial columns reflect a party hue. The Editors of the Globe have borne their share in the party conflicts of the press They claim an honorable discharge from the vocation. The Globe will inviolably maintain the neutrality which its relation to Congress imposes. TERMS: I’or one copy of the Daily Globe (daily during the session of Congress, and Weekly during the recess,) a year, : <ss 00 For one copy of the Weekly Globe, one year, 2 00 For one copy of the Congressional Globe, during the next, session, if subscribed Ibr before the first day of January, 1 | For one copy of the Appendix, during the | next session, if subscribed for before | the first day nf January, : 1 00 1' or six copies of either the Congressional Globe, or the Appendix, or part of both, 5 00 j The subscription for the Congressional Globe, j or the Appendix, after the Ist of January, will ihe $1 50. The original price of One Dollar \ does not pay* tho expenses of the publication in j consequence of the great increase of matter pub lished. 1 I Our prices for these papers are so low that wo cannot afford to crodi; them out ; therefore no person need consume time in ordering them, unless the subscription price accompanies the order.

A Weekly Paper, published in Macon, Ga HILST the Paper will hear principally a ▼ ™ Literary character, we shall endeavor to make it useful and interesting to all classes of the community, by rendering it a disseminator ot the latest intelligence—an advocate of virtue —and a cens or of vice. In pursuing the plan determined upon flic following will comprise the leading departments of the Paper, which we hope wi I carry the cheerfulness of knowl edge and the light of truth wherever it is re ceived. General Politics. —Waiving all intention of entering the arena of mere party politics, we shall be content with presenting to our readers the result of elections, nominations, proceedings of conventions, &c., of both the great parties that now divide the country, so far as tbev may be deemed ot public, interest. I Our columns will be open to the discussion of any subject connected with the public good— ‘ excluding, however, all scurrilous or merely par tizan communications. Commercial. —Under this head will be found the latest statement of the prices of Cotton at the various markets for that article—together with a carefully corrected Weekly Review and Prices Current of our own Market. Literature and Science. —Every field will 1 be traversed and every avenue pursued, that can be thought to lead to those sacred retreats, where Literature loves to bide herself from the common gaze, that her labors mav be rendered conducive to the public good. Selections from the best Literary Periodicals, both Foreign and Domes-' tic, will be made—Original Correspondence encouraged—Domestic Talent supported—and Science and Learning shall always obtain the sincere advocacy of this Press. Agriculture. —Whatever maybe deemed of interest to those engaged iri Agricultural pursuits, shall have due attention, and no efforts will be spared to n.ake our paper interesting to the Farmer. General Intelligence. — In this department will be found a general synopsis of Hie passing events ofthe day. The ensuing Congress will ho one of unusual interest, we shall therefore keep our renders advised ofthe movements of that body—We shall also give the proceedings of our State Legislature, whilst in session. In fine, whatever will have a tendency to devglopc the rich and varied natural resources of our State, elevate the moral character of its citizens, or promote the prosperity and happiness of the community in which we live, shall meet with our ardent and humble support. Holding these views, thus cursorily glanced at, we seek the patronage ofthe Merchant—the Mechanic—the Scholar—and the Philanthropist, I in our undertaking; being satisfied in our own I mind, that they will receive tin equivalent for the patronage they may think proper to bestow.
