THE PRINCE OF TEZCUCO.
A Romance of Central America,
by MRS. c. n. KIRKLAND,

Almost all ancient nations have their
hero, whose adventures and achieve
ments, having in the course Of time be-
come mingled with romance, make up an
ideal of character little beyond human-
iiy, yet not without its uses in establish
ing a high national standard, and AVA
kening in ardent minds an enthusiasm
which leads to emulation. Gods and dem
igods were made thus in ancient Greece;
and less romantic England has her Arth-
ur, France her Charlemagne, and other
nations their traditionary great men,
sometimes imbued with supernatural pow
ers, always with w onderfei ones, and with
qualities the very invention Of which af-
fards some idea Of the people in whose
mfpds.fbsy 4 criginase.s The early inhab.
stants Of Central America--a race scarce
" tracsable among the present Popnla'
lion of that now unhappy region-are no
exception to the fact of heroic remem-
brance. They too had their high-souled,
indomitable Arthur-their ideal OF all
noble and chivalrous qualities-in young
prince Of Tezcuco who lived in the hf'
teenth century; modern time compared
with the pyramids, but quite arespecta-
Bile antiquity for the western world.
This hero was no knight errant who
vent about seeking for adventures by
which to immortalizs himself. Greatness
was thrust upon him sOrely against his
will: for the raneorous pursuit of an in-
veterate foe forced him into action before
he had attained his sixteenth year. HIS
hams was Nezahanlcoyoil-a diguihed
aepellation, no doubt. IN its day, and one

A Hint to Dairy Farmers.

Last week we took an opportunity of
visiting farm occupied by Mr.. Dumhrell
who has adopted the system Of tethering
his cows upon a somewhat new and prof
liable system. The land is Of light shra.
w soil, and through the judicious man.
agement Of the tenant, by the economic.
al use Of liquid manure, and by judiclous
repasturing, lie has brought the land into
high state of cultivation. The Alpha
and Omega Of his system is, perhaps, that
of root culture, which has enabled him
to keep a much greater number Ell cows
upon the land TO the acre, than ID to be
met with in the neighborhood. The greaI
difficulty which most dairy farmers mee'
with in keeping cows, probably, during
the two months preceding the hay har'
vest, has been overcome by Mr.. DUN
bren, who by lettering the cows, is ena'
bled to make the meadows of compare
lively smaller dimensions than is custom
ary, Weld food in sufficient abundance
tor his ualFf. U6 usudi " tCthO''
ing is to allowsa cow the range Of cir
Gle to the extent of the chain; aud when
it has eaten down its food within Its area
1t is removed TO another spot. Instead OF
doing this, Mr. Dumbrell te,hers his cows
with a chain of twelve or fifteen feet; and
when it has consumed the grass within its
reach, the pin is removed onward foot
or foot and half, the COW then eats
this quanty, aud is again allowed anoth
er bite of the same extent. This plan
prevents the animal from treading on the
food which 1t consumes while quite fresh,
and the Chain assists in distributing the
droppiugs. The field is thus fed over
evenly, aud all is consumed and none
troddsn upon. Mr.. Dumbrell processes
to realize good profits from his system,
and with degree OF liberality highly
or editable to his character, reserves no
information from his visitors.-Sarrey

You took me William when a gill,
Unto your home and heart,
To bear In all your after life
A fond and faithful part:
And tell me have I ever tried
That duty to forego,
Or grieved because | had no joy,
When you were sunk in woe!
MOL would rather share your tears
Than any others glee, %
For though you're nothing to the world,
You're all the world to me.

This rough hewn bench thrown;
There's snn light for me in your smiles,
And music in your tone.

Behold him toll from day to day,
Exhausting strength and soul:
Oh! look in mercy on him Lord,
For thou canst make him whole"
And when at last relieving sleep,
Has on my 'eyelids smiled,
How Oft are they forbid to close
In slumber BY our child!
I take the little murmurer
That spoils my span of rest,
And feel it as part of thee,
lull upon my breast.
There's only one return I crave,
may not need it long;
And it may sooth thse when I'm where
The wretched feel no wrong;
ask not for kinder tone.
For thou vert ever kind;
l ask not for less frugal fare,
My fare 20 not mind.
l ask not Tor attire more gay,
II such as have got
Suffice to make ME fair 10 thee,
For more murmur not
But would ask some of the hours,
That you on 'club" bestow-
OF knowledge which You prize so much,
May not something know!
Subtract from meeting among msn,
Each eve an hour for me:
Make me companion your aoul,
As I.n,ay ssfely be;

Then think when you'rs away,
