Journal,

THE BACHELORS RUTIEON.
YTVFdE SEOND NUMBER of this Period |
4 ical is now before the public. The
very kind favor with which it has been ac-
cepted, prompts the Editor to make renew
ed exertions to place the work on a firm
oundatiOn, and to make it worthy the pat
tronage it iSlikely to receive. No effort was
made to obtain subscribers, no publicity
given to design, until the first number was
ready for distribution, the Editor
was unwilling to make promises which he
might be unable to fulfil and he was anxious
that the flubAc, before it gave encourage.
lment or appreciation, should see the work
and have an opportunity to judge Gifts me-
ritS. A short notice of the Editors inten-
tionS and wishes accompanied the first num-
Der, and the appreciation and indulgence
with which his friends and the public gen.
Ierally received it, gave him hopes which he
had not previously INDUCED.
II That Alabama would give handsome
nlsupport to such publication was a matter
h of extreme doubt owing more to the com.
lmeTcial and agricultural enterprise, than tC

spirit for literary advancement. But the
avidity with which fortune has been hunted
down, has not taken away the TASTE Other

require much greater care in cultiva-
ton, as it is necessary to protect them
during winter from cold, and to renew
the vines by fresh planting every few
years, older plants generally producing
only widowed fruit.
There is scarcely any person SO sit
uated as not to be able to cultivate at
least one vine. Even those who re-
side in towns and cities, may raise their
own supply Of this fine table fruit. A
late writer on this subject says !:
fThose who have no room for single
garden bed, may have their clean brick
walk under the shade of vine of lux
uriant growth-the expense is trifling,
compared with its permanent advanta-
ges. I have known single vine, Gull
tivated in this way, to produce in one
single season, fruit which sold for
more than $50 dollars, and a neigh
Dor of mine, who keeps shoe store,
could show en- vine seven years old,
nearly seven hundred punches Of
sweet water grapes, well ripened-yet
he had no room for single garden
bed, and trained his vine over brick
pavement. Seme oc his leistire hours
were thus innocently and delightfully."-
occupied without any interference with
his business. Genesee Farmer.

VAIN ROASTING.

Can he be fair that withers at blast!
Or he be strong, that airy breath can cast!
Can he be wise, that knows not how to live?
Orhe be rich that nothing hath to gives
Can he be young, that's feeble, weak, and
wan?
30 fair, strong, wise--so rich, 30 young is
man.
So fair 10 man, that death, "a darling blast,)
Blasts his fair flower, and makes him earth at
last;
So strong is man, that with a grasping breath,
He totters, and bequeaths his strength to
death;
So wise is man, that if with death he strive,
His wisdom cannot teach him how to live;
So rich is man, that (ell his debts being paid)
His wealth's the winding sheet wherein he's
laid;
So young is man, that (broke with care and
sorrow,)
He's old enough to-day to die tomorrow.
Why bragg'st thou, then, thou worm Of five
feet long.
Thou'rt neither fair, nor strong, nor wise, nor
rich, nor young.

WASHINGTON, Feb, l8s7|
Dear Sir: Having Written three ID
tersto the Secretary of War on the SD
ject, I called to-day inpcrson to see d
President, to protest against any furtfE
draught on Middle Florida, and to sd
gest that they would have enough to
to protect their own frontiers. He d
clared he did not believe that JEs

that Florida had ever had Brigad

The present incumbent says II fear the

how hard it is to satisfy their wants.
Mr.. A believes he shall discontinue his
paper, because it contains no political
news-and B is decidedly of opinion
that the same sheet dabbles too freely
in the political movements Of the day.
C. does not take it because it is all on
one side-and d whose opinions it ge-
nerally expresses, does not like it be-
cause it is not severe enough upon the
opposition. E thinks it does not pay
due attention to fashionable literature
and F cannot bear the himsy notions
of idle writers. G will not suffer pa
per to lie upon his table, which ven
lures an opinion against slavery-and
H never patronises one that lacks moral
courage to expose the evils Of the day.
Il declares he does not want a paper
filed with the hodge-podge proceedings
and doings Of congress and the legisla-
ture-and J considers that paper the
best which gives the greatest quantity
of such proceedings. K patronizes pa
pers for the light and lively reading
which they contain---and L wonders

says that murders and dreadful acci-
dents ought not to beput into papers,
and S complains that his miserable pa
per gave no account of that highway
robbery last week. I says the type is
too small-and u thinks it tso large.
v stops his paper because it contains
nothing but advertisements-and all
that w wants oft is to see what is for
sale. x will not take the paper unless
it is left at his store before sunrise--and
Y declares he will not pay for it, if left
SO early, that it is stolen from his domi-
Gil before he is up. And, last Of all,
comes the compliments of some of the

Aresting, because it does not every
