Let the South proudly boast of its rich verdan

Her deep, woody glens, and her grass mantIed wales
Her rude rugged rocks, and her COOL chrystal oun-
tains,
Her bleak, icy winters, and fierce northern gales
Though nature has spread in their richest diffusion.
Her choicest of gifts DER the SOuths sunny plains,
All, what can avail the delicious protuson?
Alas It's the home Of oppression and chains.
But, dearest Vermont, the proud spirit Of freedom,
That dwells midst thy mountains each bosom yet
fills,
From tyrants at home, ana abroad she has freed
them,
Thy sons are as free as the breeze Of thy hills.
Tho wild DER thy fields winters storm often RACES
Thy SONS are warm hearted and generous as brave,
Their kindness each sufferers sorrow assuages,
And friends find y home, while their foes find grave.
Here wOrth's silent claims are not often neglected,
Here Justice presdes with unlimited sway,
Here genius and learning by wisdom directed,
Chase error and dark superstition away.
Thy daughters, Vermont, like the flowers of thy
mountains,
Retiring and modest, in besuty's rich bloom,
Have minds that are pure as thy rock grdled foun-
tains,
And smiles to dispel even life's darkest gloom.
Their bosoms enshrine every tender emotion,
Each vrtuous impulse, unshackled and free,
And pure from their hearts, the warm prayer of de-
voton,
Like incense, Great God, rises silent to thee.
Here science bestows her munfcent treasures,
With virtue and practical wisdom combined,
United with friendship and pure practical pleasures,
To heighten our joys, and ilIumino the mind
Then give me Vermont, with the bright lake before
me,
Whose smooth tranquil surface oft mirrors the sky,
Mycot on its banks, and some nylnph to watch DER
me,
Contented I'll live and contented I'll die.

Albany, June 8.
j. M. SHERWOOD, Esq, President of the ~
y agricultural Society:
DEAR SlR.--It is time that the main
question be now put" Is the plan detailed
in my last feasible Inpart have anticipat-
ed the answer If it is consonant to the
known laws of trade it is feasible, and not
otherwise. In Europe, wool and almost ev-
cry other commodity is bought and sold by
the broker exclusively, and in this country
the practice is gaining ground nor can any
sound reasons be given why the wool business
of this State, like four-ftths of all the other
business Of the country, cannot be advanta-
geously carried on upon the same principle.
But practice is better than theory. The
plan is now in operation, and so far as one
years experience can be a guide it is likely to
work well. Dr. j. p. Beekman, on his re-
turn from the State fair at Poughkeepsie, was
induced, from some facts which came to his
knowledge, to believe that some farmers did
not receive fair equivalent for their WOOL
He induced Mr.. Homar Blanchard, of Kin
derhook, man well qualified by experience,
! by his moral qualities and by business habits
to undertake an establishment of the kind
which | have been advocating The result
has been that 100000 lbs of wool have been
sold during the year. For 10000 lbs. of
which prices have been obtained ranging from
thirty-soven and half to fifty cents per lb.-
In majority of cases the wool sold has
brought as much as the year before, notwith-
standing the price of wool generally was from
eight to ten cents per pound less. In some
cases it brought more, and considering the
difference in the state of the market, in no
case less. Thus far everything is propitious.
Mr. Blanchard, after a year of assiduous in
dustry, has materially enhanced his previous
+ Iy valuable qualifications, and has done so by
acquiring and deserving the confidence and
friendship of manufacturers l have examin-
ed piles ofletters from the manufacturers, who
in all cases express their perfect satisfaction
with the purchases made, and a strong desire
that the project may succeed.
The wool is brought into the warehouse,
each fleece examined, sorted according to
quality and condition, into five different sorts
In a case that occurred while | was there, a
lot Of one hundred and flty-fvc pounds, was

in this view of the subject, enlarge upon the
importance Of an acquaintance with the natu.
raj sciences. Without this, we are poorly
prepared to answer the enquiries which nat
urally arise in the minds of our children, as
they see unfolded before them the great book
of nature, presenting to them daily new and
interesting phenomena. Fortunately, the nat
ural sciences may, to some extent, be studied
with interest and profit even amid the cares
Of domestic life. And we think many moth
ers who are not already familiar with these
subjects, would find themselves amply repaid
in the benefit they would reap themselves,
and in their increased capacity to impart use
full and entertaining knowledge to their chill
dren, if they would Systematically devote a
portion, though small, of each day, to the pc.
rusal of some work on botany, chemistry, phi
osophy, or any of the natural sciences. With
the aid Of some familiar treatise on these
branches Of science, the work once commence
ed, would be easier than many mothers might
imagine. Above all, let no young lady at the
present day think of passing away her life
Ignorant of the great book spread out before
her.
