No more her pulses come and go; Her eyes are shut to life and light; Fold the white vestures, mow on snow, Aud lay her where the violets blow. But not beneath a graven stone. To plead for iears with alien eyes; A slender cross of wood alone Shall say, that here a maiden lies In peace beneath the skies. For the morning choir will sing. Its martins from the branches litgn, And every minstrel voice of spring, That thrills beneath the April sky. Shall greet her with its earliest cry. When turning round that dial track. Eastward the lengthened shadows pass, Her little mourners clad in black, . The cricket sliding through the grass, Shall pipe for her an evening mass. At last the rootlets of the trees . Shall find the prison where ahe lies, And bear the buried dust they seize In leaves and blossoms to the skies; So may the soul that warmed it rise. If any, born of kindlier blood, Should ask what maiden lies below. Say only this: “A tender bud, That tried to blossom in the now, Lies withered where the violet* blow. (From the Charleston Mercury. 1 Cotton Prospects for 1867* A correspondent of the Hew Orleans Times, writing from the Mississippi bottoms, poiuts out llie fallacy of the beliet that the present quotations for cotton are justified by the crop of the present year, aud discuss es the work now before Southern planters in a epir.t of determination and resolve that is worthy of gen eral imitation. The present price of cotton is lowtr than it should be,' whether tlie extent of the crop or the quotations from Liverpool bo taken as a standard, aud, when it is conrfiffered that there is no hope that the crop of 1S67 will be in any way superior to that of 1866, the wisdom of holding cotton, instead qf allow ing it to be sacrificed at present quotations, is phuuly apparent. Many of the planters are, unfortunately, compelled to place their cotton on the market f«;r what it will bring. Tlieir nece>sitica allow them m# alternative, but when this temporary pressure of sales is over, speculators lor the fall will grow discouraged, the effects ot short crops will begin ti> show them selves. aud quotations will reach a figure that will re munerate the planter for the labor aud care which his crops have cost him: f,j the Editor of the yew Orleans Times: The year about closing is suggestive of deep and profound thought, not only to the great mass of the people of the South, but to the planting interests pai- ticularly. The planters at the start this season la bored under the greatest apprehensions in regard to a sufficiency of labor to carry on their plantations, even in a moderate degree, so far as quantity of t r.*p was concerned. This fear was partially overcome, but rather late for a satisfactory start in the majority of cases. The price of cotton, was tolerably satisfac tory at the beginning of the year, and the almost uni versal opinion, among well informed and 'business men, was that the price ol cotton at opening of this season would have been from tiity to seventy cents, certainly not under the former named price. Tins stimulated the planter to increased exertion, and led to higher wages being offered than the result lias justified. Instead of a moderate crop of five bales to the hand there is not two, on an average, throughout th<? eh tiro cotton-growing States, and prices have receded to *26 and 32 cents for ordinary to middling, so that we see that the crop hag fallen off more than one-half from our most moderate calculations at the beginning of the year, and prices in about l he same ratio. Thus the brightest hopes aud the most careful calculations have come to naught Provisions and the entire cost of living have been and still are exorbitantly high, and can it be doubled or wondered at that bankruptcy and universal distress is about to cover the laud. Add to these calamities, which come home to every man's door, the dark aspect of onr political future, he must be a brave man, aud highly imaginative, who sees ray of sunshine on our dark aud lowering horizon. The question naturally arises, what are we to do)- Dark and foreboding as are the prospects before us, I see but one way to extricate ourselves. The people—tie planters—must ask indulgence of their creditors and friends, who well know that these accu mulated calamities have been brought on by no fault of theirs. These indulgences obtained, and contin ued assistance offered to the worthy and industrious, we should ‘‘pull off our coats,” and “go at it” again, resolving that no such word as fall shall be found in the Southern vocabulary. We must rouse ourselves to another trial, and if possible, learn wisdom from the trials of tha present. The system of labor will doubtless have to be con siderably changed, the system of monthly wages en tirely ignored ; that certainly will not do for a planter. This year amply proves that, to the sorrow of many, the system of thirds to the freedmen is equally disas trous to them, aud they w.ll doubtless requ re a great er advautage. The employer, who has paid wages, and the unfortunate freedman iu his third, are about on an equality for ouce—both devilish poor. My opinion is, after mature reflection, that four tenths, alter deducting all expenses of the crop, would be a just and f .ir compensation for the freedmen parties, upon this basis, ought to be satisfied. Whether the freedmen will show as much alacrity (?) lor work the coming year as they have done ttie present remains to be seen. Every one can forih his own judgment. Mine is rather against it, unless tliey are encouraged upon the basis above named, or some thing like it, and there are other causes which tend to still further demoralize this unfortunate class. Whatever they may be, we cannot rely upon white labor to take their places. We must, therefore, de pend only upon black labor in the South to resuscitate our depressed agriculture aud locreaseour prosperity, if it ever is done, which some consider doubtful, at least for the next quarter of a century. P. S.—There is a question which I should like to see answered : Cotton being worth 14,‘id. in Liverpool, in gold, why is it that it brings only 26fg 33e. in New Or leans, in greenbacks, and they worth only 71 > a c. on the dollar, allowing gold at 140 ?

I mod-this Fer tilizer under cotton and as a Ion dressing for Cum, under a few garden vegetables and a por til,Ik of, my turnip crop. With all them crape I tmind it acted us finely as the manuCMUueia' claim for it. With all tbe serious disasters that befell us this year in a protracted drouth and matin cotton, Iiiv crops were largely augmented by its use. My corn crop, 1 am satisfied, was doubled by the applica tion and had the rains continued io have kept the manure diluted; I think It would have trebled thecrop of com on old exhausted land. With it this year 1 have made enough corn for the urn of my plantation, whereas I should have had to buy largely to have kept up the same workingforce next year. Its stimulating qualities were very perceptible in the rajfld growth aud early development ol all plant* upon which It was used; and if it is tbe permanent Fertiliser that la claimed for if, and doubtless it i*. I would prefer It to Peruvian Guano or other fertilizer* more volatile and costlv.

Among the “curiosities of the Post Office Depart ment,” the Charleston Mercury finds the following : -Iu thecourse of the year ending June 30/66 t four and a half millions of letters were placed in the Post Offices which could nor be delivered a3 addressed. Some were misdirected, thousands of others were perfectly illegible, and tens of thousands were mailed without any address at all. Nor were these letter* of trifling importance or of little value, for thirty-four thousand of them contained itn aggregate amount of neatly a quarter of a million of dollars, and twenty- six thousand of them contained bills of exchange and other valuables representing about $7,750,000. The Post Office Department are diligent iu ferreting out mistakes and protecting careless people against them selves, and a value ef $7,250,0U0 in ‘dead letters’ was returned safely to tlrapersons by whom it was orig inally sent.” Raw Meat and Spirits to Cube Consumption.— An English paper prints the following:—“F.

The new treatment has now' been tried satisfactorily in two thousand cases of phthisic.

A- you are aware, the pest season with ns was an. preec-i lenud tvi t« cat her in the spring, and excessive dromb—commencing in June—the latter fatal gen erally to manured crops, l applied tbe Eureka to • Held of thirty acres of cotton, two tons to tbe field, b- lng about one hundred and forty pounds lo tbe acre.' The field (stubble) was broken up well, and the Phosphate drilled by b nd in laying off to ridge. Several rows were iett without its application to test it. Tbe difference between these rows and tile bal ance of ti.e field could be discerned a considerable distance all the summer, and plainly so In gathering the crop. And I am confident that, the Phosphateon the thirty acres has paid tne fifty percent. I applied a touui i he Phosphate to corn, after ’in- com iv.ih up, before tue first plowing, end the re sult iu l!ie growing ol the corn was ihesama. Iu order, however, to make a thorough test of It with other Fertilizeis.'l procured Peruvian Guano and plm-uix Island Guano. 1 applied the Peravian Gua no lo.one acre oi com, superintending it in person, and the phosphate to two ceres tiy the side or the ti ret, in nearly equal quantities, applying about one- lourih lessail the Peruvian.

I would as leave have it lor corn and cotton as the Peruvian. I also tried It ou watermelons and vegetables with the same success.

CO.’S “NONPAREIL FRENCH GUANO W HICH is now offered to Planters possesses quali ties which are peculiar to it alone, aud render it far superior to auy other known, as has been fully proven by the “French Academy of Sciences,” anil also by practical persons of enlarged experience iu every department of Agriculture. Among the meritorious qualities which peculiarly distinguish the “ Nonpareil French Guano," may be enumerated the following: 1st. It will promote the growth of Colton, Corn, To- j bacco, or any kind of grain or vegetable, equal to a ! my experience with tbe Eureka Phosphate of Lime. No, 1 Peruvian or Mexican Guano, as has been fully | 1 applied abont three thousand pounds of it on ton tested, at tbe aame time being entirely free from the | acres of very poor land. 1 am satisfied that the land objuctionableproperties of the above, aa it is a Pcrma-1 would nut nave made more than four thousand nent Improver of the Sail, instead of a stimulant. 2d. It can be applied to tbe leaves as well as the i oots of plants, without any danger of burning them. If used properly, and we guarantee that wherever ap plied the soil will retain its moisture, and will nui bake, even the most clayey. 3d. It will prevent Worms or Insects from destroy ing either plant or grain, and wherever it is applied every kind of worm or insects will instantly disap pear, its properties being repugnant to insect life of every kind. This quality alone will be a great benefit to agriculture when it is estimated what vast numbers,’ as Southern planters know, have lost their erop by in sect depredations. iu a circular it ia impossible to fully enter into the merita of the “Nonpareil French Guano,” but we as sure tbe public that we have not exaggerated, and it only remains for those interested to test its value, when we feel confident that it will rapidly supercede aUothere. .
