• “A poet’s band and prophet’s fire,
Struck the wild warbliugs of bis lyre.”
Till' ACCEPTED.
• BV THOMAS HAYNES BAYLY.
I thank yt'u for that downcast look,
And for that blushing cheek :
I would not have you raise your eyes,
I would not have you speak :
Though mute, I deem you eloquent,
I ask no other sign,
VV hile thus your little hand remains
Confidingly in mine.
I know you fain would hide from me
The tell-tale tears that steal
Unbidden forth, and half betray
The anxious fears you feel :
From friends long-tried and dearly loved
The plighted bridemustpart :
Then freely w eep—l could not love
A cold unfeeliug heart. .
I In w you lave your cottage home,
Where in the summer time,
Your hand has taught the clematis,
Around the porch to climb ;
Yon casement with the wild rose screen,
Yon little garden too,
How many fond remembrances
Endear them all to you.
Yru sigh to leave your mother’s roof,
Though on my suit she smiled,
And spurning ev’ry selfish thought,
Gave up lier darling child ;
Sigh not for her, she now may claim.
Kina deeds from more than one ;
Lhe’ii gaze upon her daughter’s smiles
Supported by her Son!
I thank you for that 100k —it speaks
Reliance on my truth ;
And never shall unkindness wound
Your unsuspecting youth;
If fate should frown, and anxious thoughts
Oppress your husband’s mind,
Oh ! never fear to cling to me—
I could not be unkind.
Come, look upon this golden ring—
You have no cause to shrink,
T hough oft ’tis galling as the slave's
Indissoluble link?
—'And lock upon yon Church, the place
Ol Ucstlrg and of prayer;
Before tho alter hear my vows—
V ho could dissemble there f
Ccmc to my home; your bird shall have
As tranquil a retreat;
Your dog shall find a resting place,
And slumber at your feet;
And while you turn your spinning wheel,
Oh ! let me bear you sing,
Or I shall think you rpasf* trtloro
Your little golden ring.
THE MAIDEN’S PRAYER.
She rose ftont her delicious sleep,
And put away her soft brown hair,
And in a tone na low and deep
As love’s first whisper, breathed a prayer—
Her snow white hands together prest,
Her blue eyo sheltered in the lid,
The folded linen on her breast,
Just swelling, with the charms it iiid—
And from her long and flowing dress,
Escape j a bare and snowy foot,
hose step upon the earth did press
Like anew snow flake, white and mute —
And there, from slumber soft and warm,
Like a young spiritfresh from Heaven,
She bowed that slight and matchless form,
And humbly prayed to be lorgiven.
Oh God, if souls unsoiled as these
Need daily mercy from thy throne—
If she upon her bended knees,
Our loveliest and our purest one,
Site, with a face so clear and bright
V! e deemed her some stray child of lio-ht—
. A • ©
It she, with those soft eyes in tears,
Day alter day in her young years,
Must kneel and pray tor grace from thee,
AS hat far, far deeper need have we !
llow hardly, if she win not Heaven,
VS >ll our wild errors be forgiven !

Description of a Coir-llousc and Milking-
Den.
Circuit, Geo. September 1831.
Dear Sir , —l have to acknowledge the re
ceipt of your favor of the 7th inst. and regret
the occasion of its having been necessary to
remind me of the promise made in a former
.communication, on the arrangement of the
cew-pen and dungstcad ; but an unusual de
gree of ill-health for some months back, to
gether with the infirmities naturally attendant
on an advanced age, must plead iny apology
for its not being fulfilled as early as anticipa
ted. It will be recollected that in the com
munication referred to, 1 promised to give a
sketch ol the cow-house and milking-pen, and
also the calf and shcep-pen attached, and then
to state the usual mode of preparing the land
and application of manure to that, intended
for cotton. As the planting season has long
since passed, 1 propose reserving the latter
part for a subsequent communication, and in
the present, endeavour in part to comply with
your request, in giving a brief description of
the cow-house, milking-pen, Ac. as promis
ed.
As this is an appendage not common in
this climate, (never having seen one since my
residence in the up-country)! would premise,
that being a first attempt, it is highly proba
ble the plan, by a great proportion of your rea
ders, may be considered more curious than
useful. But to proceed, the cow-pcn descri
bed in the communication before alluded t ,
is stated to bo of a rectangular form, its di
mensions ‘.>2o feet from north to south, and 60
from west to east, having a descent of perhaps
If! or 18 inches in tho latter direction; a
square of t!0 feet in the south end is fenced off
tor a milking-pen, and in the north-west cor
ner of this (its north end forming a part of the
dividing fence between the stock and milking
pen) a building is erected, so arranged as to
answer three different purposes, and denomi
nated the cow-house. It is simply a log-cab
in raised on posts four feet from the ground,
the space beneath enclosed around except
t c south end, which opens into a small lot
intended for the calves and sheep. In the
floor of the house or loft a space of two ’feet
is left along the east side, under winch a
small rack is fixed for their use, there are
three entrances into this lot, one under the
north end of the house from the stock-pen, a
notlicr through the di\ iding fence between the
calf and milking pen, south of the house, and
a third from the stock into the milking pen,
thus opening a communication between 1 lie
stock, milking and calf-pens, so tint the milk
ing cattle, calves and sheep can pass without
interrupting each other. A covered shed,
nine feet wide, is attached to the cast side of
the house, divided into stalls four anti a half
feet, having a rack and trough running across
the end of each, adjoining tho side of the
house. Immediately above the rack, an ap
erture is made nearly its whole length, and
sufficiently wide to admit the dry food b ing
thrown through from the loft into it. To
the upper side oi this opening a light hanging
gate is suspended on pivots, so as to be easily
raised, having a stay to support it while pass
ing the food through into the rack, after which
it is let down to prevent poultry from getting
in ; the stalls are secured with sliding bars
while the cattle are feeding, after which they
are left open for them to go out or ih at pleas
ure. The interior of the loft is so arranged
as to hold the greatest possible quantity ol fo
rage for the winter, a narrow passage only be
ing left along the side of the calf and slicep
rack, before mentioned, this being immediate
ly under the aperture, through which the food
is distributed to the milking cows, a board of
a suitable width is laid over it with hinges so
as to admit being raised up while feeding the
calves, Ac. after which, it is let down and
serves as pert cf the floor to stand on, while
throwing the lornl through into the cow-rack ;
this precaution is necessary to prevent acci
dent ■, arising irom carelessness, particularly
as feeding the cattle, frequently take place in
the dusk of the evening. I have onlv to add,
that the door is fn the north end of the loft,
having a platform before it, which extends a
cross the water-drain, west of the pen, this bt -
ing the same height of the floor, (4 J fcct)ad
mits wagons to run along side and unload,
facilitating the operation of depositing the
fodder in the loft with little or no loss-
There are also steps to ascend the platform on
the outside, and descend on the opposite,
down into the stack-pen*
It would be unnecessary to make any com
ments on the advantages resulting from the
foregoing arrangements. If I have rendered
myself intelligible, the reader will be enabled
to draw liis own conclusions. .Should health
and leisure permit, 1 may at some future time
add some remarks derived from my own ex
perience, respecting the comparative advanta
ges resulting from comfortable shelter combi
ned with suitable food and regular feeding, in
obtaining a greater quantity of milk and but
t r, and increasing the value of the cattle.
At present, nty limits will only allow me to
subscribe myself very respectfully, dear Mr,
Your obedient servant, C.

our ruin and expulsion from business. We pled cm
ourselves to our friends to give them every satis
faction in our power as regards the quality of our
goods, the excellence of our packers and the low
ness of our prices for cash or city acceptances ;
and in return solicit irom them a continuance of
their patronage, and particularly request those
who have influence with their friends to exert it
m our behalf, as wo trust the cause is one they
are all interested in and much benefit will acme
to us from their friendly acts in this way. It has
been said, the Combination was broken tip As
it regards prices, this is true, and nil, we think,
friends or loes will allow that we have effected this
change; but we do asure our friends, that at no
period since we commenced our system of un
shackled prices were we in greater want of as
sistance than at the present moment. This com
bination of men are leaving no means untried for
effecting our ruin, that they may revive the old
system ; our credit and character are assailed in
every shape, our importations waylaid and stop
ped in every instance where threats are sufficient
to intimidate the manufactures from supplying
us:, -in fine, ™ vexation or trouble which tlm
malice ol men could devise lias been neglected in
this struggle to subdue us. We once "more call
upon every lriend of a free trade to come up to
our support, and pledge ourselves to give them no
cause to repent of their liberality.

JACKSON, to the Presidency. Its columns..:',
alike devoted to Foreign liitelligencc, -Morals,
Literaturo, and the Fine Arts. In .Morals lira
ever, it does not act upon the creed of Families,
or Bigots, hut on the contrary, inculcates those
principles of morality and religion only, \ilti u
are founded upon peace and good will to all man
kind —the fruit of which is tolerance and brother
ly affection instead of'‘persecution for opinion's
sake.” AM Bigots, Fanatics, Sunday Mail Ad
vocates, an J Church and .-tate-mm arc opposcJ
on principle, and their hypocrisy and machina
tions fearlessly exposed.

the support of which will add about $5,000 A
tbeir annual expenses. Vessels from Jhmpe
will be boarded at sea, long before they reach
the harbor, and their news disseminated through
the country with tnorj than ordinary despatch.
In incurring this heavy increase of expenditure,
the Proprietors look for remuneration a> all who
feel an interest in the affairs of the Old World,
and if they have properly estimated the po]t:.'/.ir
feeling in relation to this matter,they will!.effi
ciently sustained in the course they have adopted.
It does not become them to speak of the man
ner in which their Editorial Department is c >
ducted—lt may bo stated however, that Assi-'-
ant Editors and Reporters are employed at libera
salaries, and if the Commercial, Political, Litera
ry, Foreign and Domestic News, were not at least
equal to any other Journal, it would scarcely
have acquired in the short period of five years,a
greater daily circulation than any other paper ia
America! Yet such is the fact, and at this in
ment the Courier & Enquirer circulates daily is
the city of New York more than one hundred per
cent more papers than any of its cotcmporarics.
Daily papers sent out of the city, are not prin
ted until 2 o’clock P. M. when all the News re
ceived by the morning Mails, or by Foreign arri
vals, are inserted in a Second Edition— so tlut
the Daily subscribers in the country, literally re
ceive a Morning and Evening Paper combined;
and this being the only paper collecting news on
Sunday, it follows of couree that the news by
all foreign arrivals on that, day, will lie found in
the columns of the Courier & Enquirer only.
A Price Current and Review of the Market will
bo published weekly, and the Second Edition
will always notice any change which inay occur
in the state of our market. Whatever appears in
the Daily Paper, will of course also be publisher
in the Semiweekly.
