L,ate From The ARMY.
PUILADELpUIa. March II. /

PHILADELPHIA, March Z, 1S47.
Three New Orleans mails have arrived
Tampico dates to the Esd have been rcceiv-
ed at New Orleans. Gen. Scott arrived at
Tampico on the 10th, and sailed on the 2lst
for Lobos. The troops at Tampico followed
Immediately in the expedition against Vera
Cruz, excepting the Louisiana and Baltimore
Volunteers, who are to remain in garrison
under the command Of Col Gates. Two thous-
and have embarked.
Vera Cruz dates are to the 9th; no mention
is made Of eyacuating the City, but adyices
not late enough bring intelligence of that
event.
The rest ofthe news is unimportant. There
is q long proclamation from Santa Anna, in
which he speaks of the dcstitution in the
Mexican ranks.
THE ELECTION. Jared w. Williams, it
is ascrtained, is elected Governor Of the
State ofNsw Hampshire for the year ensu-
ing, by less than 1000 majority. We shall
bear it philosophically This fixed fact
cant be got along with otherwise, and we
are somewhat used to being in the minority.
Still We are surprised at the result, but not
0Si0nished, as are the abolitionsts, Who,
sincerely believed they should increase their
vote number OF thousands. The cause OF
the change is in a nut-sholl--a majority of
the Independent Democrats have. gone back
10 their old friends, "horse, foot and dragons"
most Of them, too, have been dragooned
into it, Well it is not so bad as it might be.
The radical party is getting quite respectable
in its professions, and we shall sec how sin
cere they are. They have been forced from
their ground on the questions Of the right
way, districting the State, receiving the pub
lie money, and now they avow themselves
as good anti slavery men as the Wings and
Abolitionists, and one of their Representa-
tives has vcntured to vote in congress, against
the " three million bill" without the proviso.
Let us see if they are ready to act against
the further extension of slavery. We pre-
diet that they will prove, as they ever have
ia fact been, allies of the South and Slavery

PROFITABLE FARMING.

At n late meeting of the Massachusetts
Legislative Agricultural Society, Il. II. Derby
Esq, ofBoston, suh that he had given some
attention to farming and was reared in the
country amidst merino sheep, which his faith
err imported from Spain. Some years ago,h
bought a farm on an island in Lake Winni-
pissiogee, N. II. IT was carried on by an n
gent who had lived on il several years. At
first he gave the agent and his wife 5000 n
year, then $3.50, and afterwards two cents
pound on the butter he made, one cent a
pound on the cheese, and one cent on the
pork he raised, exclusive oftheir hoard. lie
purchased the farm for $2,l00, aud paid out
for stocking il $1,000 more, amounting in the
whole 10 $4,000. The sales he said, had been
sometimes as high as $1,000 or I,s00a year,
Some years he got little or no profit, while in
others he cleared from Is TO 20 per cent, ac-
cording to the season. On an average he got
good percentage, aud after nine or ten years
he sold the farm for $4,000, with the view of
buying one near Boston, to which he could
retire in the summer for the benefit of his
children. When his agent first came TO the
farm, he was worth about $500 or 5000
when he left il, he was worth $4,000 or Sl0,-
900!

Tzkorss the curtains poured the sunlight
With sudden gush Of joy,
Where, upon bis bed Of weakness
Lay the dying little boy
On the rising airs Of Evenisg
Balmy sounds Of Summer came
And Voice amid their music
Seemed 10 call him by his name
And tho golden waves were dancing
On the flooded chamber wall
On the sunny hair Of Florence
And the brow Of little Paul
Az the sunsets tide, recedins
Ebbed again into the sky
Passed the faint hue from bis features
And the iustre from his eye
As il up the rosy surges
OF that shining rivers how,
Went his spirit to the Angel
Who bad claimed it long ago
Ponder stiIl, and full Of yesrning
Seemed to come her gentle call
And the throb Of Life grew fainter
In the heart Of little Paul
But the fond arms oil sister
Like link around him lay
Claiming back bis fottering sPfnt
To the love which was its stay
And his own weak arms were folded
In elinging, dear embrace
Till his cheek and dewy forehead
Rested gently on her face
Slowly sank bis weary eyelidsi
One faint bresthing--that was all,
And no more the kiss Of Florence
THRILLED the lips Of little Paul
Through his childish world, he wandered
Like a stranger, still and lone
For the depth Of Manhoods feeling
Had within his bosom grown
Yet the love whose meek entresty
In his patient features smiled
Gave at last the ssinted Mother
To the happy cherubchildl
Sad and silent through the chamber
Crept the shadows up the wall;
Cold against the cheek Of Florense
Grew the check Of little Paul
