Milledgeville, Sept. 28, 1857. 13 tf muits i\AisiMM* milE time lias arrived in my judgment when X the Planters of Hancock county, yea of the Sttite of Georgia, should protect themselves against the ruinous necessity of buying mules at ^he exorbitant prices of the present day. We have looked too much to Kentucky and Tennessee for supplies. Why ? Because mule raising in Georgia has heretofore been a farce from the fact that the Jacks of this country were small aud not competent to breed mules worthy the at tention of Stock Raisers; small Jacks and poor grazing will necessarily produce small mules, though so far as Hancock county and its vicinity is concerned, I propose to remedy the evil. I have purchased a Jack, at a heavy expense, that will in my opinion breed large mules, notwithstanding we have not the advantage of Blue grass aud clover. My r Jack, Prince Albert, is fifteen hands one inch high and three years of age, and said to be worth twenty-five hundred dollars by some of the best Judges of such stock in the State of Tennes see ; he has taken the first premium at several Fairs and at every Fair he lias been exhibited. He is of fair breeding stock and no mistake, and as I had an eye particularly to such in my selec tion, Planters may be assured there is no mistake in it. Planters that incline to raise mules I invite to call and see my Jack, aud I have no doubt of their patronage. Prince Albert will stand the Spring season at my residence, at twenty dollars, and persons at a distance who wish to breed to him. I will accom modate their mares with good grass pastures with out charge and any left with rne whose owners wish fed with other food than grass I will charge on iy the market price of such food w ithout charg ing any thing fur attention. The season will commence the first of March, and those wishing td breed to Prince Albert will do well to sendj in their names early, as I shall limit the number of marcs on account of the age of my Jack, which will make the chances of those that breed to him surer anu better for good coits. I will keep a Stallion as a teaser for Prince Al bert whieh will remedy the great inconvenience of not knowing when mares are in season. T. J. SMITH. Glenn Cove.

RACHEL—(Genf^is, xxyiii to xxx.) Twas sunseLjn tiie land where Eden was— Harau, the fort le in the times of old. And now the flocks, from far off field and hill. Home followed to the fold at Laban’s well; And, when for them the stone was rolled away, They drank, and Jacob numbered them. For such As of its life had well fulfilled a day. The .-a se si t mod the giving of it joy— Joy for the horned cattle with their calves; Joy for the goats with kids, the sluep with lambs; Joy for the birds, that tilted on their nests, Singing till twilight should enfold their young; And, from the lowly hut beyond the well. Rose the sweet laughter of the shepherd’s babe; And Zilpab’s son, and Bill ah's, on the clean Smooth floor between the household’s circling tents, Played with the children of the unloved Leah. But, in the shadow of the tallest palm, There stood a tout, apart. Th’ untrampled grass Told of frolic feet familiar there; And silence reigned within its guarded room ; Aud, by the half drawn curtain of the door, Sate one who felt her life too sorrowful To let the greeting of the sunset in. For, ou the herds that wateied at the well. And on the children that played joyous by. And on the flowers, and birds, and laden trees— Each lacking nought of life that was its own— How could she look and feel she was of them Rachel—the childless / * • * * ’Twas another eve; And other summers had on Haran smiled— An eve of golden glory, that, again, Found Jacob with his flocks at Laban's well. And now—uncovered, as at prayer—lie stood. And looked where glowed the Bethel of his dream; For, in the glory of that western sky, He saw again the ladder rise to Heaven, And the ascending and descending troop That ministered to Him who stood above— The place none other than the house of God— There, where he poured the oil upon the stone, As he came cast from Canaan. And, as wont, In tiie devoutness of ihat evening hour, He recognised THF. covenant fulfilled : For ln> had food, and raiment to put ou— His cattle and his flocks in peace were there— A God still with him who increased his store, And kept him in tlie way that lie should go, And who the holy promise would fulfil, Dearest to Jacob in that stranger land, To bring him to liis father’s house once more. Thus pra,\ ed he, with the setting of the sun. But on, there was another gift from God, Ami far more precious, tho’ unnamed with these; Whose joy had waited not the sunset’s glow To kindle it to prayer, but whose fond tire Burned a thanksgiving incense all the day ;— She whom he local had borne to him a child. And to the tent that stood Ik neath the palm— The tent apart, that was so shut and lone— The glory of the evening entered now; The silken cord drawn eagerly and far That the sun’s greeting should be ail lot iu— The rosy record of a day fulfilled Being tiie mirror of a mother’s joy— For, on the floor, rejoicing in its light, Lay the boy babe of Rachel. She, of all The daughters of the laud most fair to see— Most loved, and so most needing to bestow A jewel from her heart on him she loved— She who of women was reproached to be Barren tho’ beautiful—and thus mildest, Refusing to be comforted—behold ! God hud remembered her ! Oh mother loved— You who have taken to your breast the child New given from your beauty nnto him Whose soul is mingled in its life, the link Of an immortal spirit welded now Betwixt jou twain forever, read you here How in the Scripture is your story writ! The sands of goid, from Nature’s running brook, Were singled truly in the olden time. That which was holiest in ourdaily life Was, in inspired words, all wondrously First written—as the stars are set to bum— Small tho’ they seem, of an undying brightness. Jacob’s for Rachel was a human love— A heart won by the beauty of a maid Met with her flocks beside her father’s well. How beautiful was Laban’s daughter there, ’Tis written; and how tenderly he loved Is of his life time made the golden thread ; Aud of her sorrow that she bare no child, And of the taking that reproach away, ’Tis lessoned for the world to leai r. by heart— Sweet as a song— 1, God heakkesed unto hf.r.” And oh the bliss of Rachel in her child— Its hallowed fountain was twice Scripture-told ! Look thou, oh mother, how again ’twas writ— Tho story of thy babe as told in Heaven— “Anu God remembered her.” There are So Tears in Heaven. I met a child, his feet were bare, His weak frame shivered with the cold; His youthful brow was knit with care, His flashing eye his sorrow told. Said I, “Poor boy wby weepestthou?” "My parents both are dead,” he said; “I have not where to lay my head.” Not friendless, child ; a Friend ou high For you his precious blood has given ; Chet r up and bid each tear be dry— “There are no tears iu Heaven.” I saw a man in life’s gay noon Stand weeping o’er bis young bride’s bier “And must we part,” beeried, “so soon!” As down bis cheek there rolled a tear. “Heart-strieken one,” says I, “weep not!’ “Weep not!” in accents wild he cried, “But yesterday my loved one died, And shall she be so soon forgot ?” Forgotten! No, still let her love Sustain thy heart, with anguish riven; Strive then to meet thy bride above, And dry your tears in Heaven. I saw a gentle mother weep, As to her throbbing heart she pressed An infant seemingly asleep On its kind mother’s shelt’ring breast. “Fair one,” said I, “pray weep no more.” Sobbed she, “The idol of my hope 1 now am called to render up My babe has reached death’s gloomy slioro.' Young mother, yield no more to grief, Nor be by passion’s tempest driven, But find in these sweet words relief, “There are no tears in Heaven.” Poor traveler o’er life’s troubled wave— Cast down by grief, o’erwhelmed by care— There is an Arm above can save, Then yield net thou to fell despair. Look upward, mourners, look above! What though the thunders echo loud— The sun shines bright beyond the cloud! Then trust to thy Redeemer's love. Where’er thy lot in life be cast, Whate’er of toil or woe be given— Be firm—remember to the last, “There are no tears in Heaven.” Central Jackson’s Toilet. The genial temper of President Buchanan, his easy, pleasant manners and racy conversation, have already rendered him a great favorite in so- ciety, abroad as well as it home, and few of our public men have laid up such a stock of amusing and valuable reminiscences. There is one anec dote which he tells of General Jackson whieh is so characteristic of the old hero that it is worth preserving. The President relates that one day, during the administration of Old Hickory, he went to the White House to ask permission to present to him the celebrated Miss Betsy Caton. Gen. Jackson readily assented, and named the next day for the interview. At the appointed hour Mr. Buchanan repaired with his fair charge to the Presidential mansion, and leaving the lady in one of tiie drawing-rooms he mounted to the private cabinet of the President. To his great surprise and disappointment, he found the General buried iu his books and papers, and attired in a plain morning dress, his chin unshaven and his favorite pipe iu his mouth. The Senator f*om Pennsylvania was grievously embarrassed. He was apprehensive that if he announced Miss Ca- ton’s presence, the gallant veteran would descend all in neglige as he was. Mr. Buchanan did not like to expose the renown- f ed belle to such a shock as that, and on the other hand he equally dreaded offering a .suggestion to the fiery old hero. There was no alternative, how ever, and he had to stale that Miss ,^laton was waiting the General’s presence in the green draw ingroom. Up jumped Old Hickory at the first word, and laid down his pipe. There was not a moment to he lost, so Mr. Buchanan, in a timid and apologetic manner, ventured to observe that “the lady "could very well wait till the President had shaved himself.” The General saw what he w as driving at, and shook his frizzled head at him like the mane of an enraged lion. “Buchanan” thundred out the impetuous old man, “did you ever hear of the mau in Kentucky who got rich bv minding his own business f” "Without stopping to say whether he was ac quainted with the n markable person in question, the experienced Senator tied from the storm, and took refuge with his lovely companion downstairs. In a few minutes afterward, the hero of New Or leans entered the room with that dignity of man ner which no man knew better how to assume, and great was Mr. Buchanan’s relief to find that not only was his face quite virginal in its smooth ness. but that he was got up iu his best black suit, with boots of faultless radiance.
