Providence has iullicled upon al most every section of our country, for the last month, the severest weather that has been known for many years. The highways of travel in many sections have been stop ped. Communications between neighbor hoods have been iuterrup'ed. People have been compelled to keep close at their homes. One Agent writes: ‘‘The postponemen ts so short that owing to Lire bad weather il will be impossible for me to a'd you as 1 expected.” A State Agent informs us that •‘the contribution ftom nis State will be cut down to a small amount by the inclem ent weather, and the shortness of tiiue.” One Agent stated to us in person that there was many who wished to subscribe —that lie had hot been able to see in consequence of the extreme bitterns* of the weather. Another Agent declined to act longer, as the time was too short to obtain t! e desired results in his State. .We might quote fiom other letters to show that comphtiVl has been made; that we sought expedite the drawing bv inadequate lime. We frankly confess, that we desired to close the effort we have beun making. The object, sought is a grateful one. We have been influenced to hold on by our desire to honor the mem ory of personal relative* and friends, as well as their lost and devoted comrades.

Wc did not want to take Simms’ dog florae for Aim; but Simms insisted upon it. lie wanted to go to meet a man, and so he placed one ebd of the cliain in our hand, and left before we | had time to remonstrate. So, as it was absolutely necessary to do something with tlse dog, we concluded that it would be better to do as Simms sug gested, and take Aim home. He was a large dog, and Ais temper was not of angelic sweetness’. When wo started Lome with him, Ac seemed disinclined to go. He appeared to entertain a preference for lying down and thinking —probably about the succulence and juiciness of the bites lie bad taken out of various human legs during bis career. When we pulled at the chain he growl ed. When wc whistled he rose and shook up the hair on his spine and showed his teeth. When we attempted to drag him along by force lie flew at our leg and attempted to help himself to a mouthful, .-0 that he could in future have another cherished recollection upon which toinus. ar.d ponder. We dodged him and seized a cane, one end of which we inserted in his collar, so that he could be kept at a safe distance. Then he was suddenly seized with an intense yearning to reach Simms’ house at oucc, and he started with a jump. For three or four hundred yards the procession went on smoothly enough ; but we should, perhaps, have gone more rapid ly towards Simms’ if the dog had not been possessed by an irresistible desire to be sociable with every other dog that came within a square of him. Once Sitnms’ dog obtained too much sociability. There was a bigger dog, which seemed more anxious to commune with Simms' dog than the latter did with him. The brief interview ended with a fight. We were so much inter ested that when hostilities began wc climbed impetuously over a fence, in order, as it were, to obtain a better standpoint from which to view the con flict. We watched the fray from the other side, while we passed the chain i between the panels and endeavored to ! soothe the excited passions of the par i ties. Simms’ dog, we regret to say, whipped. Then we concluded to vary I the exercises a little by starting for hoine again. But the blood of Simms’ dog was up. As soou as wo began to cross the fonco lie made such a savage demonstration at us that we thought it would boa suicido to get down among him. We determined to remain where we were. But Si turns’ animal was ani mated by aggressive zeal. If we would not go to him ho would go to us. So lie began to crawl through the fence at the panel through which his chain went. Just as he completed the task we ad -1 journed with singular promptness to the I other side. Simms’ dog looked sur- prised and grieved, but lie emitted a savage growl and begun to crawl back again. It seemed then as if considera tions of a strictly personal but very urgent nature required that we should return to the previous side of the fence; and when we did, Simms’ dog seemed to regard it as a sacred duty to climb back at once. We like'a dog to have perseverance aud determination, and Simms’ dog had. As these gymnastics were fust becoming monotonous, wo concluded to vary them ; so we let the dog go und repaired to a neighboring tree. As soon aa the dog arrived be gazed upward for awhile and drank in the scene. Then be seemed satisfied, aud lay down at the foot of the tree to wait till we descended. lie stayed there four hours, and so did we. We couldn t desert such a faithful dog as that. At the end of that time Simms hove in sight, and, standing there be neath the outspreading branches of that noble old monarch of the forest, turned Ins fate upward and abused us scurril ously for not bringing home his dog, as we had promised to do, intimating at the same time his belief that we cher ished an intention to steal tho brute.— We should have dropped on Simms’ bead and crushed him to the earth if bis dog hadn’t been there. As it was, we overlooked the insult, and be went borne with his menagerie. Tho next time we have a dog to take home we shall kill him before we start. [From the Monroe Advertiser.] THE PATRONS OF INDUSTRY. Within the past four years there has been established and organized aa Asso ciation of Farmers known as the Patrons of Industry, that is destined, in a few years more, I think, to accomplish great good for the.whole country, but more especially for the South. The objects of tlie Association are: Ist. Systematic arrangements for pro curing, or disseminating, in the nio.it ex peditious manner, information relative fo crops, demand and supply, prices, markets and transportation. 2d. The purchase and exchange of stock, seed-, and desired varieties of plants and trees. 3. Ascertaining and testing the merits of newly invented farming implements, and those now in general use. 4th. Detecting and exposing those that are unworthy, and for protecting by all available means, the farming in terests from fraud and deception, and combinations of every kind. sth. The intellectual,social and moral improvement of the rural population, through the pleasant intercourse and impressive and instructive ritual of the Order. The Order is secret for the purpose of making it cohesive and giving it long life; without this feature where would bo your Masons or Odd Fellows? Y"et with it they staud to-d*v, aud will continue to be and prosper till old Time shall roll up his scroll and-cast it behind him for ever. Besides, being secret and working with closed doors, with the outside world shut out, gives the Order greater fervor to work for its owu members. It is an Order belonging peculiarly to the farming community, and some thing that they have long needed.— Farmers, as a class, are prone to segre gate; our calling has a tendency to isolate us from each other, and the rest of the world; and it is for this very reason that we are so easily imposed upou. The merchants, and the doctors, and the brick makers, and the brick layers have their conventions and stand side by side, while the poor farmer struggles alone with no hand to help and no voice to cheer him. Being secret, the Order can select its own members and exclude the un worthy. The Order now numbers its Granges by the thousand; aud in almost every II a year, in advance. ; Stato of the Union. It is something that we have long needed, and the farmers have received itVith openness wherever it has been received. It canto with no flourish of trumpets, but as silently as the snow upon the waters of tho river, and tho farm :rs of the whole country have welcomed it as a long sought friend. We have organized a Grange of nine males and four females, atid ask the farmers of good standing to come and join us. Our first meeting will take place next Saturday at some room or hall, to be announced by our Worthy Master, Dr. J. S. Lawton, at which time every member of tho Grange is re quested to be present.

A correspondent of the Albany Even ing Journal furnishes to that journala letter from one who was with Commo dore Maury in his last hours, and wdio testifies in a tender and interesting manner to the happy death of tha t great man. We quote: Tho last two days of Mathew F. Maury’s life was grand—a complete triumph. In perfect possession of his faculties to the last. I wish all the world could have seen that death, it was such a triumphant one. We sung hymns around his dying bed, aud after the last one, Friday evening—it was “Christ is Risen” —llo put out both hands and said, slowly and distinct ly: “The peace of God, which passeth all understanding, be with you all—all.” lie blessed every one separately, and prayed ever so fervently, and in the most beautiful language. Ho said he would be in a moribund condition for several days. Twice Friday wo were all summoned. He would look around and if all were not in the range of bis sight he would call out the names of those whom he missed. Gazing earnest ly into the face of each he said some thing appropriate and affectionate, al ways winding up with “You see hew God has answered my prayer, and I know you every one.” Ho said, “I shall retain my senses to tha end. God has granted mo that us a token of tny ac ceptance. I have set my house in or der. My prayers have all been an swered, My children are gathered around my bed, and now, Loan, what wait I for ?” He t hen repeated a prayer of cloven petitions, which ho wanted each of hjs childreu and grand children to use every day. He had composed it for himself almost forty years ago, the night after his leg was broken, and he had repeated it every night since, not missing one; and then he prayed : “O Lord, touch mv lips with hallowed fire, like saiah’s of old, that Imay testify to Thy love and mercy to me, who am but a little child in all save wickedness.*.” He then re quested that when the physicians pro nounceded him dying he should be in formed of if. As the supreme hour drew near, he turned to his sou and asked him in the language of the ruling passion, “Do I seem to dragmy anchors?” —The answer, “They arc sure and steadfast,” gave him great comfort. Just before he expired, he said, dis tinctly “Lord, receive my soul,” and lifting up both hands towards heaven like a child who wants to be taken up, 1 calling on the name of Jiis Father. So i he passed away at twenty minutes to i I one'o’clock on Saturday morning. He licit a request that his funeral should not take place until the spring, and i t theu he wished his poor body to be ! taken through the Goshen Pass, when I the r ododeurons and laurels are in bloom, and asked us to pluck their j blossoms as we passed, and shower them I over his bier as we bore him to his final resting place, in Fredericksburg or .Richmond, [From tlio Lad range Reporter.] The Tux on Printing Aluteiinls. We cor.fuss to a great surprise at tho i recent vote of tho House of Represen tatives on. the question of taxing the Press. We arc uot so much suaprised at the result as at tho vote itself. The Legislature while throwing away a good deal of its time on bills of tho*most tri vial character, and needlessly spending hudlh eds of dollars every day, still had ;an over present idea of doing some thing—not always well defined nor al ways well understood— that would re dound to the financial w Vo of the S.tntc. Knowing,his we arc noi.great ly surprised that the motion to exempt the Press frotn taxation should have been lost, but wo aro considerably as- iN0.30. tonished that tlie number voting in fa vor of it was so small. The Press asks exemption from tax ation on three grounds: The first, aud perhaps the least, is that no country ou earth, so far as our information goes, imposes a tax on the types, presses and oiher material of the printer. Every State in the Union and we believe all European countries exempt newspapers, and so did Geogia until the mongrel This body, among other notable things, such as increasing the State debt sev- eral millions, imposed a tax on printing materials. Tho present Legislature have followed their footsteps. The next reason assigned iu favor of exemption is that the printing material may be properly classed among the tools of mechanics, which are universal ly exempt. And the thirl and highest ground is that we place the Press a moug the educating powers "of the land, and claim the same immunity from tax ation that is granted to school and col lege property. We claim—aud we think we can do it without arrogance— that we are, to a certain extent and in a certain way, the educators of the peo ple. It matters not if we make money by our business; the same reasonf or taxation would apply to schools aud colleges. We would like to see the teacher who does ilfU make all the mon ey he can. We do* not claim exemp tion by reason of our poverty but as a matter of justice. And as we say there is one other rea son--gratitude for public services—that might be advanced. When the State was in the hauds’of Radicals; when her people were, being slowly but surely dragged down to the humiliation and the misery that inevitably follow Radi cal rule in the South, the Press of Geor gia made unceasing and uncompromising warfare on tho usurping government, and no one agency did as much' as this to redeem Georgia and lift her out of the dust. Tho Legislature exempted manufac tories from taxation for ten years, but bad not a solitary encouragement to offer to the Press. —Q. — * A New House-Keeper’s slide. A party who proposes to publisa a‘ new House-keeper’s Guido, sends to the Boston Commercial Bulletin the following extracts from the forthcoming work : Plain sauce—an interview with a Saratoga hotel clerk.
