My mother sang the strain In days gone past, in happy days That may not come again ! She sang it by the household hearth, Our father sitting by, And smiles were playing on Itis lips/ But tear-drops filled his eye’ “On earth there is no place like home,” ' She taught my lips to say, But all that made my home so dear Long since hath passed away! We hear no more her gentle voice At morning or at even ; She has an angel’s golden harp ! Her song is heard iu Heaven ! I hear it sting by others now, And o’er my soul the while Steal memories sadly sweet that bring A tear-drop and a smile! And oh ! ’fis sweet e’en now to hear Those thrilling murmurs fall, ‘Home, sweet, sweet home!’ ’tis not of earth! Heaven hath a home for all! Spring.

Caroline I.cc Ilrntz. Although but a single month lias passed since the first copy of this brill limit book was issued, yet so great has been the demand for the last anil most beautiful work from the pen of its lamented au thoress, that we are now printing the TWENTIETH TIIOlSA!VD, with an unabated demand still pressing us. Since the days of the Lamplighter, no book has sold so rapidly, or become so universally popular. Col. Fuller, of the Aetc York Mirror, in one of the most elegant articles ever penned, in regard to authors nr their productions, uses the following strong and beautiful language: ■ Ernest I,inwood. “Death darkens bis eye, and unplumes his wings, But the sweetest song is the last he sings.” In the the volume entitled “Ernest Linwood,” just issued by Jewett & Co., of Boston, we havathe dying song of the elegant and gifted Mrs. CaroSne Lee Ilentz. Moumtully sweet like the sigh of an .Eolian lyre, yet deep and oracular as the voice of many waters, it seents to have been poured forth while her soul floated down to the ocean of Rest. On almost every page we can trace the shadow of the death-angel, who bore her away when her song was ended. Mysterious gleams from beneath the uplifting veil of Spirit-land startle us as we read. The book is a broad-cast farewell—a lingering hand-grasp from one we loved. If we mistake not, its most, impressive passages are revelations of the inner life of the writer—wonderfully vivid aad absorbing, because wonderfully real. We will not attempt to follow ont, in this notice, the thread of an inimitable tale; in so doing, we should only anticipate scenes and events, which come, with beautiful linkings and tine effect, before the eye of the reader. We would not rob the book of half its charm. Sweet Gabriella Lynn will tell her own story. PUBLISHED BY JOHN P.

Do you see .that young man over yon der, leaning against the post of that hotel piaza,. twirling a shadow walking stick, now and then coaxing the hair on his lip and watching every lady that passes, not that lie cares to see them, but is anxious to know whether they are observing him; lie belongs to the “stuck up folks.” What is the occasion? Well, he happens to have a rich father, and a foolish, vain mother, who has taught him that he isn’t “common folks,” and that poverty is al most the same as vulgarity and meanness, and so he has become “stuck up;” lie dos- cn’t take pains to learn anything, for he does not feel the need of knowing any more; he docs not work, for he luis never required it, and he is so extensively “stuck up,” that he hasn't the least idea that he will ever come down—ho dosen’t know-, however. “There goes a young woman—-lady she calls herself—with the most condescend ing air to nobody in particular, and an all pervading consciousness that she has not earned the salt she cats, knows a little, very little, of a good many things, and nothing thoroughly of anything; is most puzzled lest she should be puzzled to make a selection ouf of some fifty young men, all of whom are dying for her, she sup poses; she is one of the “stuck 'up folks,” and that is about all she is. That old gen tleman over the way, barricaded with half a yard of shirt cbllar, guarded by a gold headed cane, with a pompous patronizing air—do you see him? Well he is one of the “stuck up” too. lie has been so about ten years, since he got off his leather apron, and btfgan to speculate successfully in real estate. There are other fools of this class, some “stuck up” by having at some time been constable, justice of the peace, an alderman, and in various other ways they get “stuck up” notions. They are not proud people, for they do not rise to the dignity of pride; they are not distin guished folks, for they have not the abili ty or character cnough to make them so these are just what they seem to be, “stuck up”—let them stick. Otto of Hoses. The principal seat of the manufacture is in the district of Hassaulik, which com prises about 3(> villages, and is situated in Bulgaria, about 200 miles northwest of Constantinople. This district is devoted almost entirely to the cultivation of roses, and during the season of harvesting, which is from the first of May to the middle of June, the country, for miles beyond the borders of the district, is redolent with the odor of roses. The cultivation of the rose and the extraction of the oil, occupy near ly all of the time of the people. In the distillation of the roses, the water which comes off is successively re-distilled, and finally the oil, being the lightest, rises to the top, and is skimmed off. It is limped, with a tinge of orange color. It is said to take 300,000 roses to yield an ounce of oil. This oil is brought to Constantinople in hermetically sealed copper vessels, vary ing in size from those capable of holding an ounce to those which hold seven pounds —so that, at the regular market price, $6 an ounce, one of these copper cases may be worth $500. The oil is worth six times its weight in silver. The ordinary amount of oil produced in Hassanlik, is a little less than 3,000 pounds. At Con stantinople the oil is put up in gilt bottles, manufactured expressly for the purpose in Bohemia. The rose water which re mains front the distillation after the oil has been skimmed off, is sold for 8 or 10 cents a quart, and is used by the Greeks and Armenians on all festival occasions. It lias been stated that the otto is worth in the land of its manufacture, $6 an ounce; and it is frequently sold for a considerable less amount! This apparent inconsisten cy is owing to the fact that the oil is sus ceptible of an extraordinary degree of adulteration. It was formerly mixed with sandal-wood oil, which is valued at about one-twelfth as much as the otto of roses. It is much less limpid and flowing than the oil of roses. Of late years, however, a new oil has been introduced to dilute oil of roses, and render it less overpowering. It is brought by tlie Arabs from Mecca, and is called by them “Shepherd’s perfume.” It is ex traded from a kind of geranium, nt a cost of §2 per pound, or one thirty-sixth the price of otto-of roses. Both on account of its cheapness, a cer tain similarity of odor, and its likeness in color and weight to otto of roses, no other oil is so well adapted to mix with it and reduce its strength. In the common oil of roses found in the shops, there is proba bly 15 per cent, of foreign oils; and ihe diffusibility ef its aroma is such, that it may receive without perceivable deprecia tion, in the opinion of ordinary judges, 80 per cent, per pure foreign oils, especially of the oil of geranium.—Hunt's Magazine Anecdote of n Fat Man “Bridget,” said a lady, in the city of Gotham, one morning, as she was recon noitering in her kitchen, to her servant, “what a quantity of soap-grease you have there! We can get plenty of soap for it, and we must exchange it for some. Watch for the fat man and when he comes alon tell him I want to speak to him.” Yes ma’am” says Bridget, keeping a bright lookout of the kitchen window, and no moving creature escaped her watchful gaze. At least her industry seemed to be rewarded, for down the street came a large portly gentleman, flourishing a cane, and looked the picture of good, humor. Sure, when he was in front of the house, out she fled and informed him that Iter mistress wished to speak with him. “Speak to me, my good girl?” asked the gentleman. “l~es sir, wants to speak to you, and says would you be good enough to walk in?” This request was so direct that it was not to be refused; so in a state of wonder ment, up tlie stairs went the gentleman, and up stairs went Bridget, and knocking at her mistress' door, put her head in and exclaimed: “Fat gentleman’s in the parlor, ma’am.” So saying she instantly descended to the lower regions. “In the parlor!” thought tlie lady.— “What can it mean? Bridget must have blundered.” But clown to the parlor she went, and up rose our fat friend, with his blandest smile and most graceful bow. “lour servant informed me, madam, that you Would like to speak to me—at your service madam.” /The mortified mistress saw the state of the case immediately, and a smile wreath ed itself about her mouth in spite of her self as she said: “Will you pardon the terrible blunder of a raw Irish girl, my dear sir? I told her to call in thefat man to take away the soap-grease, when she has made a mistake, you see! The jolly fat gentleman leaned in his chair, and Laughed such a hearty laugh as never comes from your lean gentry. “No apologies needed madam,” said he, it is decidedly the best joke of the season. Ha! ha! ha!—so she took me for the soap- grease man, did she/ It will keep me laughing for mouths, such a joke! Taking the Assessment. The following good story we find in the last West Baton Rouge Sugar Planter: When the' immortal Col. was As sessor of a neighboring Parish, he was wpnt to have a high old time. One day, as he was assessing the valuables of th occupants of a log cabin, situated in the Pine woods he, in his usual urbane man ner, “popped the question” to the old woman while the old man had gone out to procure some “corn cob oil” wherewith to regale liis guest. “How many horses, cattle, sheep, chick ens, &c., have you got, my dear madam, and how much arc you worth?” “Well, thar’s three old horses, but they aint wutli a cent—three cows, but they’ve been lost this spring two year*—narry sheep, ’cept my old man, and he aint wuth a cuss; but he allers votes the Demmy- crack ticket, and buys his whiskey by the jug when he can get it a heap cheaper by the bar’l. The chickens was all stole the other night, an’ I hope to massy they’ll pizen the scamp that hooked ’em.” “Very satisfactory estimate of your val uables, particularly about the old man— but here’s something worth assessing (pointing to a dirty little urchin about five years old that was clinging to the old wo mans gown) how much do you value that little nigger at?” “Little nigger! sakes alive! you infernal old rascal, do you dare to call my child wiped her face, and stifled her vexation in the thought that she should find herself amply revenged npon the other ladies in the hall. In reality, the lecture closing at Ihis moment, the andiance began to dis perse, and the gentleman and his wife al most burst with laughter at the sight of cheeks of yellow, blue, black, violet and other colors, which now made their appear ance in the street. Some of the ladies, who had manufactured for themselves ivory complexions, rosy checks, coral lips and ebony eyebrows, were so transformed that they would have excited the envy of a peacock. Marriage of Ike Princess Royal of England. We arc authentically advised that the Princess Royal of England, now in the sixteenth year of her age, is betrothed to Prince Frederick of Prussia, a young gen tleman some nine years her senior, and that they will be married probably in the course of the current year. It is only a few months since the intend ed bridegroom visited England, where it would seem he wooed and found favor in the eyes of the Princess Royal, and, what was more to the purpose, perhaps in the eyes of her royal parents. The papers of that day reported how he was conducted to the palace by Prince Albert; how lie was received in the most gracious manner by the Queen; and how he was treated there for some days as a most favored guest. A general impression was created at the time that the visit was not an ordinary one of ceremony; and the idea soon got hold of the public mind that the Prince came as suitor to the Princess Royal, or rather as visitor to his betrothed wife. An outcry was raised against the projected alliance, the Queen was lectured about the mode of marrying the daughter, and the matter ended at that time by the departure of the Prince from Balmoral. It is now apparent that the royal families of England and Prussia merely deferred the execution of their project until more pacific views be came ascendant; and tlie renewal of this subject at the present moment affords de cided proof that, in the opinion ofboth families, the accomplishment of peace is certain, and tlie contemplated alliance may have exerted no inconsiderable in fluence in securing the consent of England to the admission of representatives from the Court at Prussia to tho Paris Confer ences. Prince Frederick William Nicholas Charles of Prussia was born on the 1st of October, 1S3I, and is consequently in his 25th year. He holds the commisssion of Major, a la suite, of the- first regiment of foot guards, and Chief and Colonel Propn- ctairc of other Regiments in the Prussian service. He is the eldest son and heir of Frederick William, Prince of Prussia, brother of the King, and heir to the throne. Consequently, if the projected marriage shall take place, it may be anticipated that tlie time is not far distant when the throne of Prussia will be occupied by a Princess of England. . The young lady whose hand is about to be made the pledge of renewed amity with Prussia, “Her Rox-al Highness Victoria Adelaide (Maria Louisia, Princess Royal of England,” was born at Buckingham Palace, on the 21st of November, 1840, and was baptised on the I6th of February following. She was to be confirmed at Windsor Castle on Thursday, the 20th ult.,and as a preliminary to her marriage, which is likely to follow in convenient order the proclamation of peace, and swell the popular rejoicings which may be ex pected to succeed that event,— N. Y. Post. nigger? Clar out o’here, or I’ll knock the daylights out o’you in a minnit. Oh my! to think I should live to be forty odd next class meeting, and to hear my own child called a nigger by such a feller as you!” By this time the old woman had worked herself up to a pitch of ungovernable fury, and raising her voice to a shrill yell, she called out to the old man, to come quick and “chaw the Colonel up,” and we are compelled by an inward regard for veraci ty, to record that the Colonel’s old bay made six miles of bad road in better time than Lecomte ever did in his palmiest days. A deputy was sent to attend to the un finished business in that settlement, and the Colonel’s remembrance of that day’s work has “hoisted” him into the other ex treme, for the last and biggest fight he was in was occasioned by his entering upon his return, when taking the last census—six little mulattoes as the children of one of his constituents. Blfc Fashionable Ladies Chagtined.—The Paris correspondence of a New York con temporary furnishes the following: • It was lately announced that an exceed ingly brilliant auditory, amongst which were many very elegantly dressed ladies, attended, at Berlin, a lecture on chemistry, delivered by one of the most celebrated chemists of bis age. After witnessing a uumber of beautiful experiments and hear ing of the marvels of science,^ a young lady grew fatigued, and requested her husband to lead her from the hall. •My love,” said the gentleman, on reach ing the landing place outside, “wipe your cheek there’s a largo blue spot upon it.” The lady, much surprised, turned to look at her reflection in the mirrowed win dow of a shop they were passing, and was almost petrified to observe that the rouge on her cheeks had became blue, in conse- sequence of the chemical decomposition oc casioned by the gas the professor had used in making his experiments. She quickly Deep Tillage.—We can see no good reason why deep tillage should not be practised to a great extent upon most of our farm land. It stands to reason that if the soil is loosened but four of five inches, with a hard, impervious subsoil, that deep rooting plants cannot be nourished so well as if the subsoil was loose. Some writers object to deep ploughing, because the sub soil thrown upon the top often does injury to the crop. As to throwing the soil di rectly to the top, we have doubts of its im mediate benefits to crops; but where tho subsoil plough is used to loosen and pul verize the ground, and the next year or so this subsoil is incorporated with the sur face soil, we cannot but think it would be of material advantage. What claim does the West put up for its fertile lands over ours? Why that their soil averages from two to six feet iri depth. Docs not this deep stirring of the soil do that very thing for us? The importance of deep culture is beginning to be better un derstood and more practiced, from its evi dent security against drought. But it has many advantages to induce it adoption.— When a piece of land has been ploughed for a series of years only a few inches in depth, the bar of the plough passing yearly about the same depth, makes for itself a hard well-beaten road, irnprovious to heat, and to the roots of plants, and to water; anti renders the surface very liable to be waihed away by our heavy rains, es pecially upon our hill sides, leaving the subsoil smooth and hard exposed. |How much of our land has been injured in this way. It looks plausible that if the subsoil was loosened several inches, that the water would soak into the ground, and go off gradually, instead of forming a great fore bay, driving every thing before it. But this subsoil, unless stirred, is of no use to the growing crops. In many cases it is rich in the substances composing the food of plants and by being exposed to the air and action of frost, would increase the productiveness of the land. The supply of the various salts, so important to vegetation, and which in wet seasons are carried iuto the subsoil, by deep tillage are liberatedand drawn np by the roots of plants, andare vastly beneficial to the land. Deep culture tends to retain so much moisture in the loose particles of earth, that it operates like a sponge, preventing it from becoming cloddy, and yielding up water as it is demanded by the growing crops.— Western Agriculturist. —— Appearances.—Upon the subject of dress and appearances, the New York Times thus remarks: “ A coat that had the marks of use upon it is a recommendation to people of sense, and a hat with too smooth a nap and too high a lustre is a derogatory circumstance. The best coats in Broadway are on the backs of penniless fops, broken down merchants, clerks with pitiful sala ries, and men that don’t pay np. The hea viest gold chains dangle from the fobs of gamblers and gentlemen of very limited means; costly ornaments on the ladies indicate to the eyes that are well open, to the fact of a silly lover or husband cramp ed for funds. And when a pretty woman goes by in a suit of plain and neat apparel, it is a sign that she had fair expectations and a husband that can show a balance in. his favor. For women are like books, too much gilding makes men suspicions that the binding is the moirt important point.”
