A GREAT MIXER.

We would call the attention of our readers ia
the following communication, from Maj. John
Jones, Of Whcatland Bohemia Manor; to the cor
responding Secretary of st. Georges and Apo
quinimink Agricultural Society. respecting il COW
Of his. Maj. Jones has expressed TO us the opin-
ION, and we concur with him, that by iudiciols
crossing with our hardy country cattle, a very
valuable stock might be produced; superior in
Decd to the Imported high bred cattle, for the
dIiry, if not for the sllamblcs; and this opinion
as far as regards the dairy, is supported by his
uncquallcd yellow Flower. The Maj. states that
Yellow Flower grazcd in common with Il
lagc stock, OH land which ten years ago was dull
sale al ten dollars per acre; he did no: say that
he topdrcssc'i his pasture field last fall with 49,
600 bushels of lime, besides considerable guam
tity Of mari, which nevertheless was the fact,
AMI which will serve to show to what extent, the
spirit Of improvement exists i'll his ncighbourhood

TIE LETTER.

DEAR SIR.-My COW, Yellow Flower.
is five years old, barely twelve hands high.
and would weigh if slaughtered not more
than 35Olbs. She was sired by my hall
Devon and Durham bull, Tom Benton;
II calf out of a COW of the stock raised by
the late DR.. Samuel 5. Smith, of the t. S.
Army. at the Pea Patch island. The but
ter of our dairy, averaging about 9Olbs.
per week before she came in, was SO much
increased by her, that we resolved to see
how near she would come to the highly
celebrated, well bred Durham cows, Dali
ry Maid and Blossoms; accordingly, OH
| the 18th inst. we commenced keeping hel
milk by itself. On that day she gave 26l
1ts. by milking her morning, noon, and
evening, and on the 9Th, % qts. Tn,
weather being very warm, the thcrmom,
etcr at 80 and 90 degrees, it operated SC
much upon the cellar, where the milk wa,
kept, that to have continued tho expert
mcnt longer, would have done injustice
to the COW; we therefore closed with the
second day the Is Is gallons of milk
yielding 4 ] lbs. butter, or at the rate o
l5i lbs. per week. She was at the lin,
of this trial in her fifth week from calyn.
and grazcd in common with large stock
on land that ten years ago was dull salt
at $40 per acre,
Yellow Mary, the dam of Y elbow Flow
or, was raised in Kent county, Md. Sh'
was Of the common country stock, am
was great butter maker also She wa
very small, and weighed but u lbs. to thu
quarter when slaughtered.
| If ! remember rightly, i'll the expert
ment made last summer, Dairy Maid CAV
over 33 DTS. of milk per day, on an ave
rage for seven days. yielding in the weel
labs of butter. Blossom gave 35qts. pc
day for seven days, yielding over II lbs
per week.
Respectfully yours,
JOHN JONES.

Fools will with loud surprise
Invest
Things that are to the wise
A Jest:
Their breasts, in human life
So taught,
Regard each passing strife
Az nauyEt.
Still will III Zach care
DeCc..,,
But wiser It's to bear
Than grlevc.
Joy, grief, will soon have gone
Their round;
Soon must we take the ono
Last bound.
The rich man, bloated, tired
With within;
The poor, whose toll in hired
One vaunts to whom wealth doth
Belong,
One cnvics h.m;-and both
Are wrong.
Equals all men they deem
Below;
All! such at least we deem
Yet Love, with smile benign,
lllumes;
And every year the vine
Still blooms.

A klSS.
A kiss!-O, tits a magic spell
That wildly thrills the breast,
And bids il with emotion swell,
When lip 10 lip is pressed.
IT'S friendships pledge--affection's seal.
And though a transient bliss,
Yet still the coolest heart mus, feel
The rapture Of q kiss.
A kiss! IT'S loves own tender breath
Fond language Of the heart
The last Communion held in death,
When friends forever part,
When gloomy cares disturb the breast,
No charm can soolh like this;
The mind is sweetly lulled to rest,
Beneath a magic kiss.
A kiss, 'tis a dear delight,
Whose memory often cheers,
And shines through clouds serenely brigh
Recalling by-gone years.
Who hath not felt the bosom beat,
With an ecstatic bliss,
As loving souls together meet
In transports glowing kiss.

- commenced in Hartford, Con-, to be continued
so long rs the public will sustain it.
We have chosen for the name of our journal rath-
er Il ~poetical one-aod strange enough TO those who
are buried in dungeons and mines; but to The inhahi
tant. of the clear upper air, a familiar essence, shi-
ming into the hearts Of some who else would die of
~frgidity. Strange, also. to n class, whose condition
we propose to Internationally, the inmates of our
factories, to whom the pleasant light Of heaven comes
but seldom to cheer their laborious tasks.
We design, also, to touch on the banking system,
and portray some Of its enormities hitherto suffered
TO pass almost in silence. We must let IN a little
light upon the modern dynasties, and study their I'M
quities by the Jla=e of the "SussEAx," instead Of
tallow candles and corporation wax. Will the peo-
pie never know their rights, and knowing dare main
tain them! This is what we want to find out;-and
for The purpose of a free and fair discussion OF the
TRUTH, we issue these proposals TO the bold and Tree,
who have the heart TO reason the matter with u.s.
and to all indeed who are not afraid OF getting burnt
with a "SrNBrAa.n

ven US, on principles and measures of public policy,
without reference 10 sects, or parties, or individuais.
The causes which have Produced such fearful Inc
qualities IA tho social condition will be feariessly ex-
Hmined and discussed. We shall not fail to ask Of
the bloated sristocracy Of the land--and in a manner
100 that shnll be heard-N no ana What maue you

than the scores or perhaps hundreds Of poor men, wo-
