A COTTAGE SCENE.

Dr MRS. GoURNEY.
/ saw a cradle at a cottage door
Where the fair mother, with her cheerful wheel
Carroled so sweet song, that the young bird
Which, timid, near the threshold sought for seed
Paused on his lifted foot aud raised his head
As TO listen. The rejoicing bees
Nestled in thronss amid the woodbine cups
That DER the lattice clustered. A clear stream
Came lcaping from its sylvan height, and poured
Music among the pebbles; and the winds
Which gently mid The vernal branches played
Their idle freaks bro't showering blossoms down
Surfeting earth with sweetness. Sad | came
From weary commerce with the heartless world
But, when felt upon my withered cheek
My mother Natures BREATH and heard the tram
Or those gay insects at their honeyed toll,
Shining like winged jewelry, and drank
The healihful odor of the ilow'ring trees
And brisht-eyed viole,s-but, most of all,
When behold mild slumbcrng innocence,
And on that young maternal brow the smile
Of those affections which do purify
And renovatc the SOUL turned me back
In gladness, and with added strength, to run
NV weary race, lifting thankful PRAYER
Iohin VINO sho"sd mo some bright tint of heaven
Here on earth, that might safely walk,
And iirmer combat sin, and surer rise
From earth to heaven.

eight or ten teams with their loads can
occupy the floor at one time in unloading

area or bay, as il is usually called, which
is filled with hay, &c., which must be
over sixty feet in diameter. This is
pitched in and on from one side or place

The roof comes 10 point at the centre,
and sheds off the rain all round, some.

then shinglod round in the usual mode.

Piilsburyh.

l! is gratifying TO learn that Pittsburgh
is rapidly rising from the ashes of her late
con1agration, in renewed strength and
greatly improved appearance. A com.
munty possessing energies like those can
not but prosper. The Pittsburgh Gazette
says:
"Ninety days have elapsed since the
great catastrophe, and the change since
the night of April 10Th, in the burnt dis.
tric,, exceeds all we ever dreamed Of en-.
ergy in rebuilding. Had any one ven.
tured to sit down on April ll,h, and seri.
ously assert that in three months time
hundreds of brick buildings would have
been put up, not by one or two. but by
rows and blocks, we should have though,
him very imaginative, to say the least.
But what do we see! Why, in the briel
space of time, whole blocks of houses
have sprung up as if by magic, have been
covered in. and many Of them occupied
as places Of business. The warehouses
now in course Of erection far exceed those
which previously occupied their Sites"

Axrscnl,urn,...New plnn for n Barn.

The following is description offs large
barn buit in the town of Hancock, Berk.
shire county, Mass, by the family Of
Shakers located in that place
The barn is built on ground inclining
southwardly, in perfect circle, and is
ninety feet in diameter across it side to
side. The walls are Of stone, twenty-five
feet in height, of suitable thickness, and
laid in lime, and well painted on each
side. Round the barn, on the inner side,
are stables forming circle, the manger
within, and suitable places over it to
throw or feed down the hay the stable
and manger occupy about IL feet, and are
eight feet high; the stables open to and
from several different barn yards, in order
to make as many and such divisions of
stock as they thought proper. The COW
ering of the stables forms the barn floor,
which also extends round the barn. There
is but one large doorway for entrance
with teams and loads; this is from the
northern side, from an Offset or causeway,

OUR COUNTRY.

Our Country-'tis a glorious land,
With broad arms strctch'd from shore 10 sho
The ptoud Pacific chaics her strand,
She hears the dark Allantcs roai;
And nurturd in her ample breast,
How many goodly prospect lies,
In natures widest grandeur dress'd,
Enamellcd with her lovliest dyes
Rich prairies deck'd with flowers of gold,
Like sun-lit oceans roll afar;
Broad lakes her azure heavens behold,
Rejecting clear each trembling star;
And mighty rivers, mountain born,
Go sweeping onward dark and deep.
Through forests where the bounding fawn
Beneath their sheliering branches leap.
And graded midst her clustering hills,
Sweet wales in dream-likc beauty hide,
Where love the air with music fills.
And calm content and peace abide.
For Plenty here her fullness pours,
In rich profusion DER the land,
And, sent TO seize her generous stores,
There prowls no tyrant's hirelng band.
Great God we thank thee for this home
This bounteous br,h-land of the free;
Where wanderers from afar may come,
And breathe the air Of liberty!
Still may her flowers untrammelled spIing,
Her harvest wave, her cities rise;
And yet till Time shall fold his wing,
Remain carths loveliest paradise!

A Contrast.


Willis, in one Of his recent letters from
Europe, says:
"Ano,her contrast strikes, probably, all
Americans on first landing-lhat offemale
dress. The entire absence of the orna-
mental-of any thing, indeed, except CO.
vering-in all classes below the wealthy,
is particularly English and particularly
un-American. do not believe you would
find ten female servants in New York
withou, pardon my naming it,) a 'bus,le.'
Yet saw as many as two hundred wo-
men in the streets Of Liverpool, and not
one with hustle | saw some ladies
get out Of carriages who wore them, so
that it is not because the pride (of those
whose backs form but one line) does no,
outweigh the price of the bran. They
wore thick shoes, such as scarcely man
would with US, no gloves OF course, and
their whole appearance was that Of females
in whose minds never entered the thought
of ornament on week days. This trihing
exponent of the condition of women in
England, has large field of speculation
within and around il, and the result of
philosophizing on it would be vastly in
favor Of our side Of the water"
