No farmer ought 10 undertake TO cult,
vate more land than he can stock and man
age to advantage. II is better to TIL 90 g.
cres wen, than 100 in slovenly manner.
A mans owning large farm is no ex.
cuse for imperfect tillage. What he can
not Improve, he need not undertake to cul-
tivate.-Most ofour land in New England,
if left 10 the operations Of nature, will soon
be profitable for frewood and timber.
Large pastures may be profitable with no
other labor than what is necessary to keep
them clear Of bushes. But to run over
twenty acres of plough land or moving
land for what, with good cultivation, may
be obtained from FIVE acres, is the quintes-
cenee of bad husbandry.
A large farm, without skill, capital, and
industry, is plague to its owner. 1t is
like. what somebody said of fselfrighteous-
ness, the more you have oft, the worse you
are off.
Agriculture ana .Manufactur.s.--There
is no way in which agriculture can be so
we'll promoted as by the patronage and in
crease Of manufactures. A home market
is better for the farmer than foreign mar
ket, because it is at hand, has nothing to
do with the power or caprice Of foreign ma
tons, and is more regular and better to de-
pend on.

WHITNEY'S COUGH PILLS.

NHESE pills, which are composed most
Il ly ofvegetables, are not inferior to any
thing yet discovered for coughs, colds,
asthmas and consumptions; and even in the
latter case, where n cure is not to be ex-
pected, they prove an excellent palliative
by expectoration, relieving pain and pro-
ducing sleep.
Numerous certificates of the virtues OF
these pills might easily be procured but it
is confidently believed they are sufficiently
known to render a recourse to such means
unnecessary, and where they are not known
we are well assured trial of them will be
more efiectual recommendation than a
host of certifcates.-Directions for using,
with the box.
Each box contains forty pills; price fifty
cents.
N. B. To prevent impositions each box
will be enclosed with label beariag an
impression of the good Samaritan, with the

A convent OF the Ursulne Nuns has for
many years existed in Georgetown, Dis
trict OF Columbia, and we well remember
of having in earlier days, "when life was
young and hope was ncw," fingered a.
round its gates and walls in hopes of once
more bcholding a bluc-oyed Juliet, who
had babe the world a short farewell, TO
dwell within the gloomy structure, with
the daughters Of ST. Ursuline. But it was
in vain that we wistfully gazed upon the
mansion dedicated to God and religion; for
she on whom our young eyes would have
feasted, fell n untimcly victim to secluded
life and when she emerged from the con-
vent, it was TO 90 down 10 the narrow
house of clay Ito slumber beneath the cold
clod of the valley.
About year ago, Miss Mary Jones,
! daughter of Com. jacob Jones Of the Uni
ted States Navy, who had been novice
at this institution, became a religious de.
voioe--resolved upon adopting monas,ic
life, and took the white veil. II is seldom
that this ceremony has been performed in
this country; II caused some little excite

A deep and crimson streak
Thy dying leaves disclose

Mid ruin blooms the rose.
Thy scene each vision brings
Ofbeauty IN decay;
Offear and early fading things
Too exquisite to stay.
OF joys that come no more,
OF flowers whose bloom is fled

Around me breathe farewell.
Along thy sunse, skies.
