THE RETURN.


'Cone homs--comc home"
MRS. HEMANs' RETURN.
I conc-I como There's sound of joy,
OF music in the word:
Oh that the rapid winds might bear
Me onward like a bird!
I'm weary with those wanderings,
Oh, for the treasured sound othome,
To wake an answering tone!
Tha voices of my happy home!
The music of the heart!
How Oft those gentle whisperings come
Alas! how soon depart!
hear them when the forest wind
Is breathing forth its song,
And in the murmuring of the wave,
That bears my bark along.
Why should l waken memory
Ofthat fair, distant home?
Twill fi:ng deeper gloom upon
The lonely path roam.
Yet fancy loves TO wander forth,
And hover round the hearth
To catch those cleaning looks oflovc,
That light the scene OF mrth.
come-I come!-Why should rove,
"A dreary Wild like this,
When voice beloved recalls mc back
To share life's all OF bliss =.
l come-I come! like the weary bird
AT eve to its sheltered nest;
Like the pilgr,,n from aiar, come,
10 4 blessed shrine Of rest

The New York Correspondent of the Ma

toba. Intelllgencer writes -
II is great mistake, as remarked in the
Debates OF some of the members of Congress,
to suppose that New England and n. ork,
or the great capitalists of New England md
NeF ork, now wish for, or are pushing for,
"a high tariff" for any tariff at all, except
what Is necessary for revenue. A new re-
vo'ton has taken, or is taking place, among
the New Englanders in this matter. AS a
commercial people during the war, and sub
sequcnt to tue war, with reluctance they were
almost driven by acts Of Congress into being
manufacturing people too but now many

call it. So strong are soGe Of them, see,
that they not only exercise powerful control
over the cotton market by buying immense
quantities at the lowest prices to be able to
keep out Of the market upon rise of prices,
slowing it away in immense warehouses :;
for competition with England in the Ger
man market. at England's own door Of the
Rhine The tariff question thus is never "a
gain to present solid Northern column of
camorous friends, for success is making them
indifferent; but the next urgent cries may
cone from the waterfall Of Virginia, or the
piney woods of North Carolina. The local
ity ofthe high tariff advocates is to cross the
Potomac on the Atlantic shore, and the Wa
bash in the tier Of the States Of the West.

rArrEs,xa ANIMALS.

There are some rules which may be-
adyautageously adopted in feeding AMI

are too often passed over. or neglected.

properties may be all made available TO
the use of the animal, and not only so,tbnt

pendi,ure of muscular energy. The OK

sheep that spends hours in making its way

eat.it in as many minutes-lhc pig that
ears raw potatoes. or whole corn, when
either cooked. could be eaten in one quar-
ter of the time aow used, may indeed tat
ten. but much less rapidly than if their
food was given them IN n proper manner.
All fool should be given TO faliening anl.
NAL in such stale. that as little time and
labor as possible. on The part Of the animal,

2nd. The food should be in dbunddnce.-
From The time The lauening process com
mences. uaii the animal is slaughtered.
he should never DC wilhou, food. Health
and appetite are best promoted by change
of food rather than by limiting The quanii-
". The animal that Is stuffed and s,arv-
ed by rurus. may have streaked meat. but
il will be made Too slowly for the pleasure
or profit ofrhc good farmer.

ing how readily any animal acquires ha-
bits of regularity in feeding. and how soon

All creatures faller much faster IN ihc
dark than in the light, n fact only TO be ac-
counted for by their greater quiet. Some
of those creatures that are The most irritable
and mpatien, Of ires,rain, while feeding.
such as turkeys and geese, are found to
take on fat rapidly when confined in dark
rooms. and only le'I at stated hours by
hand. There is no surer proof that p'g
is doing well. lban 10 see him eat his meal
quickly and then retire 10 his bed, to sleep

Animals while fa,,cning should never bc

never be allowed 10 want for food.
