great credit to the artist, it is capable of doing
more than the ordinary hand loom, and can with
great ease be managed by a girl. I was much

astonishing to see the rapid march Of science.
"To the Lowell company The people Of this
country are indebted for bringing this beautiful
machine to its present high state Of perfection
they have expended nearly 100000 in building
and erecting machines; they have now put up so
looms, about one third of which are in active oper
alton; the carpets produced are of excellent qnali
ty. and will bear comparison with any manufac.
tured.
"Mr BigeIow had likewise completed a ma

inventions in point Of simplicity, and, from the

The WHEAT CRop OF THE UNITED STATES.
The Prairie Farmer, published at Chicago Ill.
says:
lfthere be not larger wheat crop in the Uni.
ted States this year, in the West at any rate, than
ever before, we shall be disappointed. In our
rambles through Illinois, Wisconsin and Indiana,
we have seen and been informed that more wheat
was sown las. fall than usual that almost with.
out exception SO far we have been able 10 learn
it has beenuninjured by the water ,he early open
ing of spring will hasten its growth so that there
will be little danger from rust and this being tho
chief cause of fear for wheat in this region we
think the prospect Is good for large crop Seve-
raj Of our correspondents, writing from Wiscon-
sn and southern and central Illinois, coincide with
these views.
From inquiry we do not think there was quito
as much sown in central and southern Illinois as
last year but probably more than any previous
year when the crop has been cut of. The season
has been so favorable that an unusual amount Of
spring wheat has been got in limo calamity

MANY years ago when Gov. Gore cat in the

was chosen member of the Council. While
attending to his duties in that capacity, he was
frequently invited to dine with the Governor, who
always treated him with much hospitality and ur-

iiteness, Mr. B. had long medtated making him a

A WING SONG.


"Huzza my boys, loud be your joys"
The People all are risin'--
From East 10 Wea, From North to South
For Clay and Frelinshuysen.
IT'S plain as day, tina, Henry Clay,
The fac, needs no disguising;
The course will walk, in spite Of talk,
And so will Frelinghuysen-
"Ths, same old coon,r his bump Of tune,
Will soon be exercising;
And sing his song, both loud and long,
For Clay and Frelinghuysen.
That coon you know, four years ago,
Was worm wood, gall nd bison
To Martin Van, and all his elan,
Who now hate Frelinghuysen.
Alas says Van, this Texas plan,
That Tyler's been devising;
As sure as rates, it elevates,
H. Clay and Frelinghuysen.
Four years ago my cake was dough,
And now this sad vexation,
Could not delay, ill after May,
My views Of annexation.
John Tyler too, with sickly crew,
Will try with advertising,
To keep the place he has disgraced,
From Clay and Frelinghuysen,
Wings one and all help roll the ball,
The loco plans capsizing,
Give us fair play, we'll win the day,
For Clay and Frelinghuysen.

nrAll the ordinary intercourse of life is big
and warm with poetry. The history Of few
weeks residence in circle of human beings is q
domestic epic. Few friendships but yield in thei'
development and decay the staff OF long trag
edy. A summer day is an actual idyll And
many moment of common life sparkles and
sings itself away in light song; wounds as the
noisoned barb OF an epgram; or falls as heavy
mournful epitaph. But in all he who has an cal
to catch the sound may find a continuous under
flow of quiet melody, bursting sometimes into
funeral chants.

Then thy soft arms thy neck enfold,
And thy sweet voice is in my ear
In every scene to memory dear

This lock Of hair thy forehead shaded,

This book was thine-here didst thou read
This picture, oh I! yes, here indeed

Here was thy summer moons retreat,
This was thy favorite fre-side seat,
This was thy chamber, where each day
sat and watched thy sad decay:
Here on this bed thou last didst lie,
Here on this pillow thou didst die!
