NYe pail, dear girl—’tis sadder yet
Than :ili the grief* I ever knew ;
Oh ! would that I could stay the pain
That runs my aching Losont through !*
NYe both have loved the sunset skies
Iu lonely walks at still of eve;
But now they fade iu gloom away,
And in my heart their sadness leave.
We’ve gazed in silence on the grave,
Gemmed blue of night when all was lair;
But now alone I weep to see
Xo beaming hopes are pictured there.
We’ve listeued to the voice of love,
Dear girl, when naught disturbed the hour ;
But now my dreams of joy are fled
Like beauty from a withering flower.
Alas! my softly touched Guifar
With magic tones now cheers me not,
To know its strains were dear to thee
Makes sadder still my lonely lot.
The dark bird fluttering o’er our heads,
Another falliug at our feet.
Thy spirit seen in Faucv’s flight,
Alone, so calm, and sadly sweet,
Were omeus of the bitter hour,
That tore away the flowing wreath,
Love twined around my trusting heart
To scent the purest sighs I breathe.
’Tis done, and though thy future life
A landscape chequered o’er may be,
Amid the shades off eeling hopes
Remember me, remember me.

Hymn of the Hnrvcuters.
We gather them in—the bright green leaves—
With our scythes and rakes to day,
And the mow grows big, as the pitcher heaves
His lift, of the swelt’ring hay.
O ho! a field ! for the mower’s scythe,
Hath a ring as of destiny,
Sweeping the earth of its burden lithe,
As is sung in wrathful glee.
We gather them in—the nodding plumes
Os the yellow and bearded grain,
And the flash of our sickles’ light illumes
Our march o’er the vanquished plain.
Anon, we come with a steed drawn car—
The cunning of modern laws :
And acres stoop to its clanking jar,
As it rocks its hungry jaws.
We gather them in—the mellow fruits,
From the shrub, the vine and the tree.
With their russet, and golden, and purple suits,
To garnish our treasury.
And each has ♦•-ensure stored,
ah Beneath its painted rind,
To cheer our guests at the social board,
When we leave our cares behind.
We gather them in—this goodly store —
But not with the miser’s gust;
For that great All Father we adore,
Hath but given it in trust.
And our work of death is but for life,
In the winter days to come :
Then, a blessing upon the reaper’s strife,
Aud a shout at this Harvest Home.
‘l'arlarit* Acid in Native (.rapes.
The assertion has been frequently made in pub
lication in this country, that the growth of grape
vines for the manufacture of wine is a project of
doubtful success, since in the United States the
grape does not form tartaric acid in the same large
proportion in which it is found to exist in the Eu
ropean plant, its place being supplied by the vege
table acids, which alter the flavor and value of the
wine produced.
Inasmuch as the cultivation of the grape is now
prosecuted with success in the Ohio Valley, aud
since the climate and soil of the United States are
emiuently favorable to the growth and propaga
tion of the vine, as shown by the abundant woody
development, it becomes a matter of importance
to know whether the juice of the fruit grown in
the United States differs in any important particu
lar, as regards the nature or amount of acid, from
that of European grapes.
For the successful manufacture of wine the
presence of tartaric acid is all essential ; for, by
it.-* tendency to unite with the potass, also present
in the pulp, and to form the acid tartrate of potass
(cream of tartar) —a salt soluble in the pulp of the
grape, but not soluble when, by fermentation,
alcohol is formed in the juice, and which is there
fore thrown down and seperated from the wine,
forming the “ tartar ” —depends the superiority
and greater healthfulness of true wine over the
fermented liquors of other pulpy fruits whether
indigenous or exotic.
In the pulpy fruits used in the manufacture of
domestic wines, the acids present are chiefly malic
aud citric, which form with potash salts soluble
not only in the fresh juice hut also in the ferment
ed wine. They are consequently not thrown
down or seperated out of the wine as alcoholiza
tion goes on in the fermenting vats, and their
presence in the wine renders the latter unhealthy,
it being liable to become acid iu the stomach,
and to produce derangement of function in that
organ. Hence, the real superiority of the wine
of the grape above the fermeuted juices of other
fruits, depends not upon fancy, nor an uneducated
taste, but upon the production of an alcoholic
liquidjnot containing within it substances injurious
to disgestion.
Tartaric acid is as essential as sugar in the
manufacture of wine; in dry wines the tartar
predominates much more than in sweet, in which
sugar is the dominant element. This acid dimin
ishes as the fruit approaches ripeness ; aud it is
also diminished in grapes grown where the climate
is hot and dry iu the season when the fruit is
ripening. In the south of Europe, when, in the
autumn, the African winds biown 4 northward, when
the grape is ripening, those portions of the Medi
terranean shores exposed to a hot and dry wind
do not produce dry wines, but wines that are always
sweet, because the proportion of sugar and tartar
are out of relation with each other. Thus the rich,
sweet grape of Malaga lias but little tartaric acid,
and a sweet wine is the result, while the wine of
Burgundy has more tartar and less sugar, and pro
duces a more acid wine.
To determine the presence and proportion of
tartaric acid, I selected the Catawba grape as that
most abundantly grown for wine purposes, aud,
by the kindness of Mr. Michael Werk, of Greene
county, Ohio, who placed at my services several
pounds of ripe grapes, and a sample of the tartar
produced, 1 have been enabled to furnish the fol
lowing results:
Six pounds of grapes, pressed, yielded 50 ounces
of a literally clear, colorless juice of specific gravi
ty 1.074. This juice was diluted with an equal
amount of distilled water, and the mixed liquid
passed through a tine strainer to seperatethe cellu
lose and albuminous matters not dissolved ; solu
tion of chloride of calcium w ith ammonia wasadded
so long as a precipitate was produced, allowing the
liquor to rest between the additions ; the precipi
tate was then dissolved in hydrochloric acid, and
ammonia added. The precipitate was theu collect
ed and dried at a gentle heat, and weighed against
a tared Alter. By this process the malic acid pres
ent is avoided, aud the precipitate obtained is
either wholly tartrate of lime, or, if not containing
any raceinic acid present in the juice, forming a
racemate of lime. As racemic acid is only a modi
fied form of tartaric acid, and as it is not known
to act in any way differently in wines from its
congener, it was not deemed necessary to seperate
them in this examination.
The amount of tartrate of lime attained from six
pounds of grapes, or from 4; pints of juice, was
4 32-100 grammes, (nearly 07 grains,) which rep
resents 50 10-100 grains of acid, tarirate of potash
originally existing in the juice.
This would give the quantity of cream of tartar
present io each ounce of juice as nearly one (rain,
admitting the whole of the tar tar tie acid to be
combined with potassa, but as there is always
some tartrate of lime present in tho jtriee, the
amount of cream of tar tar is slightlv lessened.
The quantity of sugar determined by Fchling’s
mod fication or the copper grape-sugar test wY
19-0 per cent.
As the grapes examined had ripened verv much
in the interval between the gathering and the ex
amination, the above proj>ortiou of tartrate of
porast is probably somewhat less than existed in
the fruit. The presence of that amount shows
satisfactorily, however, that tartartic acid is the
dominating acid in the Catawba grape, and that is
produced abundantly in the latitude of Cincinnati.
1 lie sample of crude tartar forwarded by Mr.
W erk yielded, on qualitative analysis, acid tartrwre
of potass, tartrate of lime, sulphate of potass, sul
p.iate of lime, pnosphate ammonia, and magnecia.
Ihe two last mentioned salts were present in but
small amount.
Mr. Payen, having stated in his work on distil
lation, that the cellulartissue of the pulp contained
“ tannin, led.to a repeated .examination of the
juice ol the pulp; and iij every case whprecommon
i ai e was taken that the skins should not be pressed,
>o U;:u any of its liquids might become mingled
with those of the pulp, not a trace of tannic acid
could be detected, thus verifying Mulder’s state
ment that this acid is wholly confined to theqkins.
latent Office Report,
4 liisfeittration of Sut>§rriLfrs
Somebody who is evidently posted, divides news
paper subscribers into six classes, which are capa
ble of inmuerable sub-divisions.
The first class arc the uprights. These are the
men who take the newspapers, pay for them and
read them. They do the thing by system.
They pay first and then read. They are gene
rally intelligent men, and consider that they -et
the worth of their money. It seems, as fair and
just to them that the newspaper should be paid for,
as a barrel of flour or anew coat. They never en
tertained any other opinion. When the year runs
out, they are on hand again with the pay. This
class, the editor remarks, are near and dear to the
heart of the printer. Their image is embalmed in his
affections, and they are universally respected.
The second class are do-wells. They are in some
degree related to the first. They pay up durirtf
the first six months—“intended to do so before”
but forgot it. ()” They never forget if they fail
to receive the paper once a week. But these’ pat
rons will do. They won’t let the printer suffer, if
occasionally reminded of their short-comings^—
The third class are the easy doers. They believe
in newspapers—always read. They take the pa
per without urging. They come up like men ar.d
pay for the first year. The next year rolls along,
but they quiet themselves with the conviction that
they paid for the first year and on the strength of
that neglect the printer till he begins to inquire af
ter the state oi their health, pockets, 4c., when
thpy wake to the fact that they are in arrears, and
after a few weeks grunting and grumbling they
come forward with fifty excuses, and pay the old
soore.
There arc many such newspaper patrons. They
never dispute the printer’s bill, however. They
know that books well posted tell better stories than
treacherous moss-covered memories. If the prin
ter can manage to beg his way till these wheel
horses pay up, he may possibly get along after a
fashion, but it is a hazardous dependence. TLe
nrlt clsss a™ the down billers. One of these will
take a paper because “ wife wants it,” or neighbor
persuades him. When it begins to come he spends
no thoughts upon it further. In the course of the
year, if the constable visits him he may pay up
grudgingly, hut with growls and surly looks. An
ordinary dun has no more effect upon him than a
bullet has on the side of a hippopotamus. The prin
ter can’t live with such men.
The fifth class are the nix cum a rouse. They
never pay for the paper—nor anything else.—
They are always grumbling at the eidtor too. —
They don t like his paper; it don’t give no news;
never liked it; didn’t want it in the first place;
told the postmaster so ; sent back one a year ago,
and didn t fiegin (o take it for a long time after it
come bav nt had but two or three numbers, and
them hain t been read, and so on to the end of the
chapter
... they talk, but the printer can read all this
like a “ book.’ They have a niche in his memory
and he tries, through his paper, to instruct them
iti their duty and make better men of them. He
finds it an uphill buiness however, and soon mves
them up—as he should.
The sixth and last class is the scape-grace.—
Everybody knows what a scape-grace is. One of
these fellows never fails to take five or six newspa
pers. N\ hen he thinks they have come about long
enough for the publisher to want his pav, he sends
word to “stop it,” or decamps for parts unknown.
ITe never intends to pay for it, and it doesn’t take
many such fellows to starve out the printer. Such
are the varieties of mankind who “ take the pa
per?.”
Sowing- Corn tor Fodder.
There are few farmers who do not run short of
good succulent pasture by the last of August or
early in autumn. To supply this deficiency, an
acre or two of ground sown for soiling at that sea
son would be almost invaluable. Every farmer
knows how eagerly cattle devour the entire plant
of Indian corn in its green state ; and land in good
condition will produce heavy crops of it. That it
atlords an excellent fall feed, for dairy purposes,
there is no doubt; and it is clearly ascertained that
it may, on some farms at least, be profitably grown
for winter fodder. Much of course, depends on
the character of the farm, and something I suppose
may depend upon the season ; but in case of the
prospect being dark at the end of June for fall
and winter food, I see no reason why the farmer
could not profitably devote an acre or two, where
the land is fit for the purpose, to the sowing of
corn for fodder to be fed out green in early au
tumn, or to be cured for winter, as the case may
seem to require.
lor a few years past, I have observed repeated
recommendations in the agricultural papers to sow
corn for soiling purposes, and I would thus early
call attention of farmers to this subject and advise
them to look at this matter.
Sowing in drills is much the preferable mode as it
requires only about one-half or two-thirds the
amount of seed needed for broadcast sowing ; be
sides, drills, by admitting the cultivator, leave the
ground clean and mellow, and this greatly adds to
the growth of the crop, they admit of easier har
vesting, and yield about one-third more fodder per
acre.
The ground should be prepared as for any other
crop. Furrow, or mark off the ground three feet
apart. Strew the seed in the furrows at the rate
of forty or fifty grains to a foot. It should not be
sown thinner than this, as the crop will be smaller.
The greatest difficulty with this crop is curing it
properly before stacking. The leaves may become
perfectly dry while a large quantity of water re
mains in the stalks, which causes fermentation and
a complete loss of the fodder when placed in large
stacks. I have found it much the best way to
place it in long rows in an upright position under
cover.
Curing is the only difficulty with this crop, and
this may be obviated in a measure when under
stood. Ten or twelve tons of green fodder and
five or six dry inay be had from a good acre.—

Rope Walking Rivalry.— Blond in has met a
rival worthy of him. Be Lave, and the host of
other competitors, though perhaps equal to the
great originator of the rope walking mania, have
unfortunately failed to convince the public of the
fact. Blondin has regarded them from his Niagara
wire with supreme contempt. One Signor Farini
—not the Sardinian diplomatist—has established
his wire right along side of Blondin’s, and profes
ses to be able to outdo the original acrobat. He
has already outdone Blondin. He has descended
from his rope to the Maid of the Mist steamboat,
and crawled up again. Blondin only lowered a
rope to the steamboat and hauled up a stove, or
an elephant, we forget which. Farini promised to
go down head foremost, but he didn’t. This has
somewhat weakened the public faith in him. Per
haps he may hereafter adopt the inverted position,
and thus leinstate himself. The rivalry between
the two champions will probably continue until
one or both shulHe off the mortal coil (of rope) by
a plunge in the seething torrent below. Those
who wish to be in at the death should go to Niag
ara and attend on the performers until the consum
mation is accomplished. —Newark Daily Adverti

From the WetunipLa Koquirer.
A Sereiler Repudiate* ftreekiiiridge.
.Ur. Editor: —Permit me to avail myself of your
columns to address a few words of explanation to
:hose who have known me as an advocate of :ho
•lection to the Presidency and Vice Presidency of
he United States of Messrs. Breckinridge and
Lane. ;
Never have I taken the stump for the distio
flushed gentlemen I have named. Nor have I
•xeept in conversation, ever declared myself in
tdherenf of Breckinridge and Lane, I acknowledge
that 1 have named them with favor to mv friends
and acquaintances on the street, and that, if u,t
contradicted or unretracted, such sentiments night
have been imputed to me ; hut I now proceed to
1 0cor<i my abnegation of the Baltimore (Seceder's)
convention, and to predicate my affiliation with
a nat is commonly called in this community the
” *nd l.verott Ticket.” In doing so, Mr.
Editor, I cordially eorcede to eve-ry man, who
pleases, the right to differ with me, whilst I ex< r
eise the privilege of differing from others. I desire
to often and no mans prejudices, towage war upon
no mans rights. I only wish to adduce some of
the reasons which have impelled me to thiseourse,
with the earnest hope that they will not be wiih
out their legitimate fruit among those who may
deem it worthy their trouble to give them a candid
perusal. Those who know my antecedents are
well aware that the movement of the Seceders at
Charleston received mv unqualified and even en
thusiastic approval. The pertinacity of Mr. Doug
las in remaining before the American people as the
candidate of the National Democracy, in the face
of a strong sectional opposition, both alarmed and
disgusted me. His views upon the doctrine of
Congressional protection never can receive my en
dorsement, so long as I consider the constitution
opposed, both in spirit and in terms, to “popular
Sovereignty,” as Mr. Douglas denominates his singu
lar theory. In this city there are those who re
member the fact of my uncompromising hostility
to Squattery and its talented but misguided ex
ponent. Indeed, I can, if necessary, name individ
uals who have heard me declare that I never cov'd
vote for Mr. Douglas, or for any one who smaoJ:.d
of his peculiar doctrine.
Upon a candid examination of such authorities
as were available, I have satisfied myself that Ma
jor Breckinridge’s record is hi favor of the odious
theory of his great rival for the Presidency. This
discovery, at first, produced within my heart the
most unpleasant sensation. My whole public re
cord, up to that date, was with the Seceders.
Hon. Win. L. Yancey had, up to a certain period,
obtained my deep admiration. My immediate
neighbors and friends considered me committed
to support the nomination made by the Seceders*
Convention. A change, under the circumstances,
must necessarily be attended with unpleasant con
sequences. Perhaps friends would be alienated
and my own vital interests sacrificed. But I am
permitted by my conscience, and bv the well
known facts of the case, to say that I did not hesi
tate long. My own word, once passed, not to
support Douglas or any persoti smacking of Doug
las’ Squatter y, mu9t now be redeemed, and hen-e
I determined not to support John C. Breckinridge
for the office of chief magistrate of the United
States.
You will find, Mr. Editor, in a speech of .Mr.
Breckinridge iu Kentucky in last December, that
his opinion was strongly against dividing the Dr
mocrary on the mere .sectional difference of legis
lative protection. In the strongest possible terms
lie lauded the Northern Democracy by name, using
such expressions as “manly courage,” “ un’l'alto£
ing firmness,” etc., to eulogise “ hundreds of the
Northern Democracy.” Irom this circumstance,
it is evident that Mr. Breckinridge entertained, six
months ago, opinions diametrically at variance
with his present absurd position and that of his
co-adjutors. I said “and of his co-adjutors.” I
will illustrate my meaning by an example, and that
example shall be no less an individual than the
gifted Yancey. In the first place let me premise
that the Black Republican party announces itseif &
“National ” organization. They say that although
a State be not represented iu their Convention a
voluntary abnegation of the privilege of attending
merely operates as yielding the right of suffrage ro
those which are represented. Now Mr. Yancey,
in his Baltimore speech of congratulation upon the
Breckinridge nomination, declares him the nomi
nee of the National Convention.
Not a single delegate, Mr. Editor, attended that
Convention from the following fourteen Statts,
viz :
1. Maine. 8. & Carolina.
2. X. Hampshire. ). Ohio.
3. Vermont. in. Indiana.
4. Rhode Island. I], Illinois.
5. Connecticut. 12. Michigan.
6. New Jersey. 13. Wisconsin.
7. Delaware. 14. lowa.
Not to speak of broken votes from K< ntucly and
Minnesota.
Now, as far as .A ationaltty goes, Mr. Yancey
and Mr. Seward are equal. If one be national, so
is the other. If one be sectional so is the other.
The question of nationality is the same with both
parties. Their claims, in the premises stand or
fall together! Pray do not misunderstand me,
Mr. Editor ; I consider J/r. Douylas to occupy a
position equally indefensible as to Nationality.
There is however one nomination, and only one,
which is open as to none of these objections.—
Anterior to both the Douglas and Breckinridge
nominations, it claims for itself the whole ‘Union,’
for its extent, the ‘Constitution’ for its watchward
and the faithful administration of the laws, for its
motive. The record of the Presidential nominee
on this ticket is unvaryingly in favor of ‘protection,’
which is more than can be said of any of his rivals.
To this ticket then I adhere, re-announcing myself
in favor of Hon. John Bell for President and Hon.
Edward Everett for Vice President of mj country,
lor such an humble individual as myself to occupy
so much space in explaining his position, Mr. Edi
tor, would be inexcusable, were it not for the fact
that you yourself alluded, by name, to my change
from Breckinridge and Lane to Bell and Everett,
and thus necessitated an equally public explan
ation.
!or the unmerited kindness of your allusion to
myself in the editorial to which this is a response,
accept the thanks of your friend,
K. S. Tharjn.
The Reign or Terror in the N. York Custom
House.— Yesterday an agent of the collector of
the port, we are informed, was assigned the disa
greeable duty of calling upon each person employ
ed in his division and collecting from him twenty
per cent, of bis monthly salary. This assessment
was levied upon all, from the poorest laborer to
the highest in authority, and rigidly exacted.—
A threat of instant removal followed the least hes
itation. The sum of SB,OOO or* 10, 000 will thus
be contributed toward the eiection of the Black
Republican Lincoln by those who are utterly op
posed to him and his confederates. There” are
many who sympathize with, and who will vote for
Douglas, who have been forced to contribute to
ward the election of his opponent, and this is done
through an Administration elected by Democratic
votes. Who could have imagined at the inaugura
tion of James Buchanan, that this would be the
course and end of his administration ? And what
will be the result? The people will show these men
they cannot proscribe and persecute with impuni
ty. The Democratic party, and the Democrats of
the country, together with the conservative classes,
I can, united, prove theyjhave still power and strength
left them to punish tyrants and traitors, and ele
vate more worthy men to the positions they now
disgrace. There has not been a day since the com
mencement of the ptesent collector’s administra
tion of the custom house, that Democrats have felt
sure of their position—there has been a constant
succession of removals and appointments—Demo
crats always removed—Black Republicans ever re
tained and frequently promoted. With the elec
tion of Judge Douglas this maneuvering will be
brought to a sudden stop.
A Civil Woro. —“lf a civil word or two will
render a man happy,” said a French kiDg, “2io
must be a wretch indeed who will not give it. It
is like lighting another man’s candle by your own,
which loses none of its brilliancy by what the other
gains.”
If all men acted upon this principle, the world
would be much happier than it is.
The Breckinridge party in Virginia already
smashed one plank of the platform on which their
candidate was placed by their General Conventioa
—the Pacific railroad plank. Now (says the Alex
andria Gazette) the question arises, if one State
Convention, iu this way, can break up the plat
form of the whole party, what is to prevent an
other State Convention from knocking it to pieces
in some other way ? There seems to be trouble ‘
