to add that a cart load Of good manure is
worth more to the commonwealth than a
thousand such resolutions. The idea.-

that it should come to this. Disdain-
fui chivairy expands his offended nostrils.
But it is further added that trade and
commerce of small aggregate of desert
ed, desolated cotton plantations'--mean-
ing thereby the magnanlmous State OF
South Carolina-'will be of little conse-
quence to the rest of the Union; and that
instead of exporting so many emigrants
and their property, for which no return
whatever is left behind, South Carolina
should take measures to invite immigrants
with their capital. their industry and .heir
enterprise to come and settle permantly
within their limits. But as we have said,
this advice will not be followed-at least
not yet. South Carolina will stick to her
two staples, politics and cotton; and as
the latter falls off she will cultivate the
other more largely. She will manufac-
ture nothing but resolutions. In proper
ton as she loses her representatives. in
Congress, those that remain, like the
Sybilline books, will increase in impor-
tance as the number grows less; if but
one should be left, the whole State would
scarcely be large enough to hold him; if
all should disappear, she would be repre-
sented in the lower House, as she already
is in the Senate, by gigantic shadow.

knew not yet of his detection, for he was
born in that section of the country, and
residents within a wide circle were then
considered as neighbors. Late in the at

American outposts, when he turned off the
main road for a narrower one that led
to a mill and dwelling on the banks OF a
small but rapid stream Let us for me-
ment look into the DIV cling and notice its
inmates One was a girl of about eighteen
a fine rustic beauty, engaged in some trl-
fling house-work but mainly listened for the
conversation of lively-looking, brown
complexion young man in half military
garb. It was evident that what he said
pleased her, for she looked at him from
time to time AS she smiled archly with fond
ness. These two were Rosa Milford, the
milers daughter, and William Towdley,
neighboring farmers son, and ensign in
the American army lying near. who is
that, William, coming towards the mill on
horseback ?

THE MAIDENs PRAYER.

by II. l.. SPENCER.
The soft, southwestern breezes flow gently DER
my check, -,
And in the quiet valley the daisy blossoms
meek,
The faded leaves arc falling with dreamy
sound to earth,
Andtbe children closely gather around the blaz-
ing hearth.
But she, the broken-hearted, looks up with tear
full eye
And whispers, 1" oh my father, in autumn let me
de-
Let me die while Autumn's shadows lie sleeping
on the plain,
While autumn's winds are murmurlng thro' the
fields of ripened grain,
While the faded leaves are floating far and wide
on every breeze;
Oh, father! dearest father let me die mid
scenes like these.
The wintry winds are loud and shrill, the snow
is falling fast,
The fire buns brightly on the hearth, as in the
days long past
But she, the broken-hearted child Of sorrow, Is
not there,
Her father kindly took her home, in answer to
her prayer.

A Few Hints for the Farmer.
WRITTEN FOR TIE OLIVE BRANCH,
BIZ II. d. White.

STONES should never be accumulated in
heaps in the fields This is slovenly prac-
ticc. It's far better to pick them up into
a cart, and convey them at once to some
place where they will occupy no room that
might be proitably appropriated, or to the
lines where they can be worked into fence.
Good stone wall is valuable species of en-
closure, being durable and efficient. The
soil occupied by stone heaps, in arabic land,
would, if freed, produce enough to repay,
amply, the cost of their removal.
CoMposT. The business of composing
may be prosecuted at all seasons. Mate.
rials are always at hand-such us rotten
wood, weeds, muck, straw, refuse hay, old
plaster, bones, decayed animal matter, salt,
lime, leaves, &c, and these the economi-
cal farmer will find means to accumulate
and work over at almost any season. 1t
should always be remembered, that in or
der that our crops may feed us, we must
first feed them. The more manure far
mer possesses, the more likely will he be to
succeed in his agrestc enterprises, and the
more extensive and permanent will be the
improvement of his farm. No one who
has not made the experiments aware of The
quantity of manure can be made OH farm,
at small expense, and without infringing on
its ordinary resources. If you have field,
the location of which admits of the water
from ponds, rivuets or springs being flow
ed over its surface, do not neglect to avail
yourself of the advantage. The wash from
the road, in spring time, are repete with
organic and inorganic substances, which,
in their application to soils, are highly sal.
utary, especially so in grain and grass.
Correct experimenters have calculated
that the urine, yoded by our domestic an

But the good woman was pacified only by
the promise of ten dollar note beside that
