Poetry.— We have received a Poem from

His nature instinctively aspires to influence
and power, and u iiler ro circumstances
could it r< st contented in so attitude of in'
feriority, Vntfepeudence. originality, and
intrepidity, added to earnest and intelli
gent conviction! unwavering devotion to
principle and purpose; a will stern and in
exorable, and a disposition tianlr, courte

ter which rarely fail to make a representa*

he was incomparably the ablest exponent
of States’ Righ ts principles, and even dur.
ing the life of that great publicist, Mr. Da

labors and responsibilities of leadership.—
ilia personal cou.age is of that knightly
order, which in an age of chivalry would
have sought the trophies of the tourn-y,
and his moral heroism fixed him immova

American Agrfculturlst-
Few persons can rnako a better pay
ing investment, ot a dollar and a half, than
to send it for a whole year's subscriptou to
the American Agriculturist which i* uow
entering upou its 27th annual volume.
Though very good in the past, the quality
of the first uumber for 18i3 shows that this
superb journal has still better thiugs in
store for this year's volume. The paper
has been kept up to its full standard of ex
cellence bv the associate editors, and we
learu from the number before us that -Ir-
Orange J udd, the long time editor in c ief
has just returned from his lengthy tour iu
Europe, rested and reinvigorated, and that
he will resume his 1 borsupon the Agricul
turist, with no diminution in the recent
strong editorial force that have so ably
conducted the paper in his absence. This
journal has already a circulation averaging
half a dozen subscribers for every Post Os»
Gee In the l/nited States and British Amer
ica, but we presume that in its new, spa
cious, and permanent headquarters, at 245
Broadway, there will" be room to supply all
new coiners. The large size of tne Agri
culturist, its great number of beautiful and
instructive engravings, its vast store of use
ful, practical, and reliable Information
about all matters pertaining to the Farm,
the Garden, and the Household; its plea
ing and iustr ictive department for Chil
dren and Youth, with its unsparing exp»-
sures of the humbugs and swindlers that
abound, all render this journal a very val
uable, and almost indispensable uid to pve
ry man, womrn and child, in city, viliage
and country. The terms, owing to its im
mense circulation, are put down to the ve
ry low price of $1 50 a year, or four co
pies for $5. Take our advice, a.ul send for
it a year, or, at least, send 15 cents and
get a post-paid specimen copy. Orange
Judd A Cos., 245 Broadway. New York, are
the Publishers.
A correspondent writing from
