POETICAL SELECTIONS. « THOM THE CONNECTICUT GAZETTE. I LOVE to view from Fancy’s hill That echoes to the bubbling rill, Sweet nature dress’d in g 1 een; The airy mound, the gloomy vale, The forest trembling with the gale, When distant clouds are seen. The sun just peeping o’er the lawn, To add new glories to the morn, Angelic joys impart; The transient dew that gives a glow, Like tears that glisten while they flow, Thrill rapture through the heart. Blue rising waves that lash the shore, The distant dashing of the oar, With sea-boys’ doleful cry ; The level beach at times unseen, And almost viewless Islands, when Fogs o'er the tcexn fly. Broad precipices, where the roar Os broken waters sullen pour Adown their craggy sides; Deep glens and mountains, far and hear, ,iluJe fountains streaming smooth and dear, blow stealing with the tde. The ruin’d fortress from afar, That shews the bloody fiend of war Once rul’d in triumph there ; Where spires and turrets proudly soar, With billows foaming round its shore, And tapers haunted glare. That point that’s in the ocean lost, Where barks are often madly tost, When heaven and earth combine To fright mankind; when torrents pour, When lightnings gleam and thunders roar, To prove a pow’r divine. Snth natural beauties thus combin’d, Give pleasure to the virtuous mind, And fill tilt soul with joy ; Far sweeter than the sensual bliss, Os rude embrace and wanton kiss, That charm but to destroy. What are the charms of fleeting fame, The honors of a titled name, Which wealth alone bestows; And what are riches, whu» is power, Unless they give the tranquil hour, That virtue only knows. PHAON.

There are few, if any, of the En glish grass seeds adapted to our south ern climate ; hence arises the scarcity in our markets of a number of neces saries of life, which this grass is calcu lated to remove, as it appears to be pe- culiar to our climate, and well worthy the attention of farmers ; it will grow on any kind of soil, and will not only yield a large quantity of Hay in the summer, but will answer an excellent purpose for winter grazing.
