POET Y
On the Death Of a Wife,

Size is gone from This bosom, who gave
70 its IhrohbingS the gladness of life:
They have horne to the cold, cold grave,
My joy aud contorr-my wife.
Her smile was the May-mornng clear,
Her look was the blue sky above,
Her mind was the 6ow'ry paterre;
And her bosom the temple of love.
Her voice was the music that flows
From the shell of The echo ofioy;
And her eyes, like the fair star that throws
Benignity over the sky.
But May-morning's yelled in a shroud
Ii hath dawned on me sweetly its last;
My blue sky the yapors becloud,
And my temples laid waste by the blast
They have borne my whole world to the tomb;
Oh all EARTH for me nothing appears,
But solitude, sorrow and gloom,
And the last of mans solaces-tears.
TITS this latest solace crave;
IT'S a tribute owe to my love;
'Til sleep by her side in the grave
would weep till | join her above.
SHERIDAN.

POTATOES ON SWARD LAND FREE
FROM ROT

Mr. Breck-Dear Sir While all my neigh
bors are mourning the calamity which has this
year befaen their potatoes, am so fortunate to
be entirely exempt from detrlment in mine. in
two fields Of potatoes adjoining mine, so diseased
ale the crops that doubt whether the owners will
get sound ones enough TO repay them for the troub-
lie expended Oh the fields. Their grounds are per
teCtly similar in quality to mine: we all used the
same kind of seed, and cultivated alike as to hoe
ing, but here the similarity ends,-thelrs were
planted on old ground-l mean ground that had
been tiled for several previous years --lnlne were
planted on sW0rd land, and covered with the pillow
they manfred in the bill applied no nlannre
at the time Of planting, but when the plants were
up about or inches, put, say, gill OF plaster
on each hill. / must aScribe my exemption from
i'll luck in this case, to planting on the sward l
can conceive of no other reason. The potatoes
are not only entirely free from the prevalent at
fection, but abundant. The product | estimate,
will turn out full 500 bushels per acre-pretty fair
for the expense incurred. EN-
am anxious to learn if any one who planted
on sWard, in other sections where the rot prevails
| has been exempt from its attacks
| ! made an experiment this year in plucllhg oil
the blossoms from three rows Upon comparison
hetWcen the plucked rows and the others, the DIT
ference noticed was, the greater uniformity of the
iplurkcd ones in sIZe, while they were full as mum
erous rs the Others This would make very ma
teraI difference in the ,Cesgh of the produce of al
acre | am inclined to believe from this, that the
plucking of the LIpSsons is a judicious measure
bur then here is the query: would the difference
this makes in the product repay for the labor !

Nelo England Farmer.
DRAINING SWAMP LANDS.

farmer upwards Of 70 years of age, in this Vi
entity, having subscribed for an agricultural paper
and observing in it an ari lie upon draining swamp
lands, Immediately bethought himself of what
could be done with six acres around his own dwell
ing. 1t was a perfect frog pond, hny covered
with tamerack, spruce and aderS. Hecut a ditch
round the whole of it, with an outlet at one corn
err, and the winter following, when the swamp
WIS frozen, Went on and cut down all the wood and
brush for burning. The next summer being dry
one, he burned ofnearly everything combustIble.
The next year what was previously a swamp be-
came dry and compact enough to bear yoke OF
OXEN He then had an anchor made, with three
sharp hukcs, or prougs, which could catch under
the roots, and with This he dragged out every root
and stump on six acres. These were heaped up
into piles, aud when dry--burned.
He now marked the wet spots, and the winter
following, sedded from grayelly hill joining the
swamp sufficient dirt 10 make those spots dry and
hard. The next year he narrowed the land anC
sowed with timothy, clover, and red top, and IN
stead Of an unsghtIy frog pond, and rookery fol
hlackhirds to harhor and destroy his corn, he ha
beautiful meadow, yielding three tons ofhay Pe
acre. He has given it light top dressing of mn
uue, to warm and sNveeten it, and now wonder
thar generation after generation should have pass
ed away without having made this simple i'm
proyement.
