pOTATOE.

The history of this plant is strikingly il
Illustrative of the omnipotent influence OF au-
thority; its introduction received, for more
than two centuries, an unexamplsd opposi-
ton from vulgar prejudice which all the phi
losophy of the age was unable to disspate,
until Louis XIV. wore bunch fthe flowers
OF the potatoc in the midst of his court, on
day OF festivity; the people then, for the first
time, obsequiously acknowledged its utility,
and began to express their astonishment at
the apathy which had so long prevailed with
regard to its general cultivation. That
which authority thus established, time and
experience have fully ratified, and scientific
research has extended the numerous re-
sources which this plant is SO we'll calculat-

This. of all others, the most provoking act
ot carelessness, and one likely to involve the
most serious and disastrous consequences to
the community, has repeatedly been com

teen years of age,-who. as we have be-
fore stated, can with difficulty read the di-
rection on the face Of letter-and who is
intristed with the very important duty OF
delivering letters and papers. Does not this
fact look like "want of attention to his 3u-
siness," on the part of the postmaster!
How far he is remarkable for general ac-
commod aton," is thing OF but little con-
seouencc:-nothing more is required OF him
than his duty as public officer; yet, we be-
lieye, if that was called in question it
would fall as far short of what the rules of

A DIRGE.

A DIRGE.
Weep not for her her-Oh she was too i;li'.
Too pure, to dwell on this guilt-tantcd earth
The sinless glory, and the golden air
Of Zion, seemed to claim her from her birth:
A Spirit wandering from its native zone,
Which soon discovering took her ior its own:
Weep rot for her
Weep not for hcr.--Y'er SPAR was like the sky,
Whose thousand stars shine beautiful and
bright;
Like flowers, that know what it is 10 dc
Like long-linked, sia1eess months Of Polar
light
Like music floating on wavelcss lake,
while Echo answers from the fiow'ry brake
Weep not tor her'
Wccp not for her-Shc died III early youth,
Ere hone had lost its rich romantic h'tes;
When human bosoms seemed the homes OF
truth,
And earth still slowd with bcauty's radiant
dews.
Her Summer prime waned not to days that
freeze;
Her Winter life was run not to the lccs
Weep not for her!
Wecp not for her,--By feet or slow decay,
1t never g.cv'd her bosoms core to mark
The plavmates of her childhood wanc away,
Her prospects wither; or her hopes grow
dark;
Translated by her God, with spirit shrivcn,
She pass'd, as 'twerc, iii smiles from earth to
Heaven:
Weep not for her!
Weep not for her,---lt was not hers to feel
The miserics that corrode amasslng years.
Ganst dreams of battle bliss the heart to steel,
To wander sad down Ages vale OF tears,
As whirl the wither'd leaves from EHendship's
tree, %
And on earth's wint'ry world alone to Be:
Weep not for her!
Weep not for her--she is an angel now,
And treads the sapphire floors of Paradise,
All darkness wiped from her refulgent brow,
Sin, sorrow, and suffering, banlsh'd from her
eyes;
Victorious over death, to her appear
The vistad joys of Heavens eternal year:
Weep not for her!

Weep not for her!-Her memory is the shrine
Ofpleasant thoughts, soft as the scent of How

Calm as on windless eve the suns decline,
Sweet as the song of birds among their bow

Rich as the rainbow with its hues of light,
Pure as the moonshine of an autumn night;
Weep not for her!
Weep not for her!-There is no cause for woe;
But rather nerve the spirit, that it walk
Unshrinking o'er the thorny paths below,
And from earth's low defilement, keep thee

She'll meet thee at Heavens gate-and lead

And tempt with glittering array

Yet when think of home, sueet home,
No farther does ambition roam.

Though Love should brighten many an eye
Nor love nor friendship can impart
A balm to sooth the longing sigh
For home, the land of social bliss,
Delightful source Of happiness.

To thee my fancy takes her fight;

Dispclrd by sad reality!
Yet, happier mine than his lone fate,

No Kindred heart to mourn his doom,-
No tear of friendship o'er his tomb.

BUENOS AYRES-Our advices from
Buenos Ayres are to the 22d of June, which
have been received via. Havana. Our cor
respoDdent in a view of the affairs of that
rcpublic, SAYS: The annihilation of the late
nropinciai Government, which was merely
an expedient adopted until Constitution
should be formed by the present constitu-
cnt Congress (called expressly for that OBJ
iect) and the establishment of permanent
National Executive before such object has
been accomplished, was measure which
the present exigencies of the State perhaps
demanded. But it has been looked on with
jealousy in the interior, as breaking down
many of the guarantees of provincial rights;
and the assembly and Governor o! the pro-
vince of Cordova, declaring the proceeding
inconsistent with those solemn guarantees,
and illegal, refuses to acknowledge the new
Executive until after the constitution shall
have been adopted. This event has induc-
ed the Congress to enter preciptately upon
the subject of a constitution; and while one
party is for taking up the project of form
Immediately, another is in favor OF still post
poning the question until the votes OF the
different provinces may be received, as to
the form of government most desrcable.
The Congress sits nightly and the debates
are animated and warm.
Lord Ponsonby, the newly appointed
British Minister to reside near this Govern
ment, has arrived at Rio on his way here,
and is daily expected. 1t is said he is en-
powered to endeavour a mediation in the
present difference between this Government
and Brazil. The terms on which we are
told peace is to be mediated, and which will
certainly not be altogether satisfactory to
the people of La Plata are, that the Banda
Oriental, the great bone Of contention, be G.
rected into an independent State; and that
its independence shall be guaranteed by
Great Britain. This will be a very sly mode
Of establishing new Eurotean colony in
America. 1t was original" thought that the
interference of England at all, or that of any
other European power, in this question
would perhaps move the jealousy of the A
merican States. The terms and whole cha.
racter of the proposed mediation (Which il
is believed may materially interfere with

should be placed in a state, the slightest de
