AT TWILIGHT.
UY PELLEAN,
Ah softly uVr Ilia lamKciipe stenting,
Sweat twilight (limlow* slowly collie ;
Tit’ n in my heart a lonely feeling
Bring thoughts of those I’ve left at home.
Away IVo n home! tho liaad i hiokcn
That rou ii< 1 our fireside linger'd uoiir ;
Ati'l memory brings ilio last word spoken
The sad farewell and scalding tear.
’Ti- vain to weep—l yet may greet them
Again upon this earthly sltoro—
And joy shall live whene'er F meet llmm,
Where grief had dwell in days before.
And yet tliore’ii pi asiiro in Ilio sadness
Thai twilight brings with mystic spell—
It mingles with a song ofgladness,
The grief ol “ those that Hay farewell.”

Things that Change.
She loved me well whose gentle folin
This cher'slud ringb t hnro ;
Yet there will enme a time, a storm,
When she will love no more.
A thousand changes will occur,
II n kindness to estrange ;
This little curl is all of her
That time can never change;
And when the lip that once I pro.-sed,
To me no smile will give,
This ringlet near my lonely breast
Shall hid smno eomturt live.
And when some lianpy heart shall bless
The mnd> st loye I must resign,
Flow well I’ll piiziiti is little tress,
Untainted still—and mine.
I have hot lilllo joy on earth—
A hnpe of joy almve ;
Save that which any joy is worth—
The paradise of lovn.
Ad Si ill F know it will not last—
That Fate w ill only spare
Os all the joys and rapture past,

In winter when the dismal rnin
Come* down in slanting lines,
And Wind, that grand old harper, smote
ills thunder.harp ol pines,
A Poet sit in his antique room,
His lamp the valley kinged,
‘Neath dry crusts of dead longues lie found
Truth, fresh ami golden winged.
When violets came and woods were green,
Ami lurks did skyward dart,
A Love ali* and while did sit
Like an angel on hi > heart.
From his heart he unclasped his love
Amid the trembling trees.
Ami sunt it tu the Lady lllunche
On winged poesies.
’l’he Lady Blanche was saintly lair,
N or proud, hut m ck le r look ;
] i Imr him-l eyes her thoughts Isy c'oar
As pebbles in a brook.
II or fathers veins ran i.yble blood,
11 is ball ruse ’mid the trees ;
Like u sunbeam she cailm and wont
’Along the white collages.
Tli** peasants thanked hor with their tears,
When food and clothes were g veil —
“This is a joy,” the lady said,
*’ Saints cannot taste in Heaven !”
They met—the Pont told his lovo.
His hopes, despairs, ins pains,—
‘i lie Lady with her calm eyes mocked
Tile tumult ill his veins.
II- passed away—a fierce song I apt
From cloud of his despair.
As lightning, like a bright, wild beast
Leaps from his thunder lair.
Fie poured his frenzy forth in song
Bright heir of tears ad praises 1
Now rcsleth that unquiet heart
Beneath the quiet dassies.
Tile world is old —O ! very old—
Ihe wild winds weep and rave;
Thn world is old, and gray, and cold,
Let it drop into his grave!
A Fanfasle.
I sit beside my gentle one;
Her hand is laid in mine—
And thus we watch me parting sun
In golden haze decline
Across the folds the shadows creep,
And up the misty bill ;
And wo our twilight vigils keep
At our owu collage-sill.
The distant brooklet’s murmurs come
lake liell-notes through tho leaves ;
And many an ins, cl's mazy hum
Its dreamy music weaves.
Thn dove’s last note, in rippling heats.
Upon the air departs;
The breath of all our garden sweets
Is creeping to our hearts.
The russet woodbine round our porch
lu clustering rigid* twines ;
The, honeysuckle’s crimson torch
Gleams through the dusky vines ;
The sunset rays are trembling now
Amid the trill is burs—
They paint upon my darling's brow
A glory like the stars.
Hor cheek is nestling on my breast,
Her eyes are bright with tears;
A prayer half-bn allied and half-rep rest,
My listening spirits hoars.
Oil! blessed he the changeless lovo
That glorifies my life ‘.
Al doubt, all fear, all guile, above—
My own true hearted wile.

Educate the l-’aniicra.
We intend no disparagement to the
system of agricultural education proposed
in the establishment of district schools,
and professorships for that purpose, for we
hail them as valuable co-laborers in the
cause of pgriculiiiral improvement, but
wr insist there is a better, a chcnpir and
a more certain mode of educating (he ag
ricultural class than by this method. Ag
ricultural schools, wc have said, were val
uable instrumentalities for this purpose ;
we miglits have said, they arc invaluable
for the accomplishment of a thorough ed
ucation in ail the departments of agricul
tural science ; but there is another sys
tem of education which, for the purpose
of tho general enlightenment and improve
ment of the mass of agriculturists, far ex
ceeds iti value and importance all the ag
ricultural schools and professorships in the
land. Our readers doubtless anticipate
us in 1 he announcement that the Agricul
tural Press is the greatest of all agencies
for agricultural education. The learned
protc-sor may gather in his lecture room
a score, or a score of scores of the lew
wlnftjre able to command the benefit of
his ms! ructions, but the press sends its
monthly messenger, laden with lessons in
the art of husbandry, to the million. ‘I lie
former who cultivates his field in an ob
scure corner of the country, remote even
from the ordinary advantages of civilized
life, is able to receive the benefits of the
light which is developed by the experi
ments and observations of others, by the
aid of l.is agricultural journal, tnd when
lie returns to his home at night, fatigued
with the labors of the day, the columns ol
that journal afford him the only school in
which lie is üblc to study the science which
lie daily practices in his farm Ho would
probably find there, much that he knew
before, and probably some things which
his own experience had demonstrated to
be erroneous ; but at the same time, lie
would discover some thought which was
new tj him ; receive some suggestion,
which would direct him in to-morrow’s
operations, or expose some error in his
own practices. The best farmers in Hie
country, are the best patrons of the agri
cultural press, and the most enlightened
one of that number is the readiest to ac
knowledge his indebtedness in some tilings
to the agricultural journal which has beep
ids iiri-siilo companion for years. We
set it down, when we find an agricultural
journal in the home of a planter, that that
man has the spirit cf improvement in him, 1
and if he is not now a good agriculturist,
the day will c<rtainly come when he will
be, if the elements of saecess are about
him. It denotes auinvestigating disposi
tion ; a willingness to receive t lie ideas
of his fellow-man and gift the truth out of
them, and a readiness to appreciate wlmt
ever goo Iho may fir,cl in thorn. Suoh it
man is bound to improve ; and if his ob
ject be to improve in his calling, his agri
cultural paper is the best school you can
afford him. It costs only o.ie dollar ; it.
comes in an attractive form, and it affords
him ju-t as much reading matter as his
other duties a low him to aid n take at one
time. It is, in a word, just the school he
wants; a monthly souvenir, a pleasant
and au instructive companion. Ye enter
prising, public spirited agriculturists, who
long for au opportunity to ennoble your
calling, whose purse is too short to endow
professorships or establish agricultural
schools, here is an opening for usefulness.
Go to work, and put an agricultural pa
pei in the hands of every one of your
neighbors.
Sinoui.Au Coincidence.—The George
town (I). C.) Journal says : “We visited
a few days since, a spot somewhat mem
orable as having been the scene of a du
el between two Kentuckians ‘1 lie posi
tion of the duellists, about eighteen pa
ces, was marked by two trees, one of
which bears the initials of one of the par
ty's entire name cut into the bark ; the
other bears only the initial of tho last
name of the other party. The tree un
der which the party stood who was killed,
is dead, having, as we are credibly inform
ed, gradually decayed from that time.—
The other tree is singularly typical of the
condition of the other party, who is now
au inmate of the lunatic asylum, standing
as it does, with the lower branches full of
life and verdure, while its top is dead and
leafless.

Every young man should remember
that the world will always honor indus

Not am, Desolate.—Moss will grow
upon tho grave stones, the ivy will cling to
the mouldering pile, the mistletoe spring
from the dying branch, and, God be
praised, something green, something far
to the sight and grateful to the heart, will
twine around and grow out of the seams
and cracks of the desolate temple of the
human heart.

Blunders of Orators.
Orators and authors sometimes make a
person smile by their misapplication ol
metaphors ami abuse of figures of speech.
Nothing is more striking in illustiation
than the use of a clearly d> fined and ap
propoa figure and nothing is more ridicu
lous than the incongruity ol metaphors.
To ill ustrate ;
A clergyman lately reproved his con
gregation liom the pulpit —assuring them
tint 1 the hand ol Providence would no!
win/c at their peculiar transgressions,’’
A descendant (done of the Revolution
ary tires, in the National Legislatuie, ns
lonishi-d his brother legislators by saving:
“My father and grantliather both saw the
darkness ol midnight glittering in the
blaze of burning dwellings!’’
John Randolph once spoke of himself
as— ‘standing on the vacant seat which
I we now occupy.”
A celebrated barrister once exclaimed:
“1 smell a rut ! 1 see it brewing in the
storm ; and with your permission, gentle
men of the Jury, 1 will nip it in the bud!’
These citations will serve to enforce the
moral—never use a figure of speech that
is not neecess.iiy for illustration and per
fectly congiuous and in keeping with the
std ject.
Pleasure —Blessed be the hand that

rybody remember some kind hearted
man who showed him a kindness in the
quiet days ol childhood ? The wiiter ol
‘his recollects himself a| this moment as
a barefooted lad, standing at the wooden
fence ol a poor little garden in his native
village, with longing eyes lie gazed on
flowers-which were blooming there qui
etly in the brightness of a Sunday morn*
ing. Tile possessor came forth from his
little cottage—he was a wood-cutter by
trade—and spent the whole week at his
work in the woods. He was come in'o
his garden to gather flowers to stick into
uis coat when lie went to church. He
saw the boy, and breaking off the most
beautiful of his carnations—it was streak
ed with red and white—gave it to him
Nether the giver nor the receivei spoke
a word ; and with boundlesfsteps the
boy tan home ; and now heie at a va-t
distance from home, after so many years,
tire feeling of gratitude which agitated
ihe breast ol that boy, xprea-es ii-ell on
paper. The carnation has long since
withered, but now it bloms afresh. —Duu

1 Oou't Dance.
A plain, unlettered mau came from the
back country in the State of Alabama, to
Tuscaloosa, and on the Sabbath went ear
ly tocliurcli.
He had been accustomed to attend
meetings in school houses and piivate
dwellings, when each one appropiiathe la
himself the first seat which tie found un
occupied. He selected there a conven
ient slip, and awaited patiently the as
sembling of the congregation The ser
vices commenced. Presently the music
of a full toned organ burst upon his as
tonished ear; he nt-vet heard one before.
At the same time the gentleman who
owned the slip came up the aisle with his
lady leaning upon his arm. As he ap--
proached the door of the slip, be motion
ed for the countryman to come out, in
order to give place to the lady. This
movement the countiymen did not com
prehend ; and from the situation of the
gentleir an and the lady, associated as it
was in his mind with ttie music, he im
mediately concluded that cotillion, or
French contra danre.or some other dance
was intended. Rising paitlv from his seat
he sard to the gentleman, who was still
beckoning to him
“Excuse me. sir—excuse me, if you
please I dont dance!”
