The Hopes and Plans of the Slave
7....t Power. $500 -

We select the following editorial from re-
cent number Of the great and avowed organ of
the Slave Power at Washington. The article is
full Of significance. The mOnstrous anti-rePub-
lican principles which are here sanctioned and
virtually recommended for the support and PerPet'
uaton Of the institution, together with the evi-
dent reliance-whch is placed on Southern DOM
incering and Northern servility, well deserves
the gravest consideration Of the people of the
North. Ponder it, freemen, and act before it is
forever too late. Ed

S;oTc9siE Farming.

Farmers generally possess too much
land to be well cultivated. Fifty acres

one hundred acres poorly titled. The net

tiled, will be more than one hundred acres
badly managed Now. an know OF

time by the forelock in preparing your
grounds, and at proper season! Do you
plow deep? Do you use the subsoil plow
where the lands want renovating? Do
You pulverizc the soil well by narrowing
and dragging? Do you get the iairest,
best seed You can fnd9 Do You use the
best farming implements! Do you keep
them in order, or do you leave them about
the fields to rust! Do YOU hoe your
crops well, and at the proper time? and
do you harvest at the proper time!

you should all answer in the affirmative !;
and there are many more, of like ma

the beholdcr, unless he is proof against

When we travel along the highway and
see the want of taste, arrangement, sym

fences, ungraveled walks, broken down

actcrize the human family generally. 1t
is not because poverty weighs down their
energies that we behold a lack of order
and neatness around, but it is caused by
sheer neglect and s!oyeniness-a lack OF
energy to put things in their right places

Ii our ambition is throne
Regardless of our neighbors, friends3
1t is not worthy of the name,
And better that We perish now,
Than kindle Honor's lurid flame,
And to the God Of passion bow.
'Tis only real life, when We
Fill up our days with noble deeds
Pluck from the heart of poverty
Dark mclancholy's fruitful seeds;
And where the hand of sorrow pressed,
Put efforts forth to bless and heal
And plant within the torpid breast
a lively faith-a holy zeal.
They who the mandate Of the great,
Upon trembling throne obey
Who for their beck and nclding wait,
From fiery youth till life is gray
Are slaves for aye, and never know
The glorics OF frccman's life
The Joy and peace that ever flow
In Wales secure from noise and strife.
Oh, would'st tlou live, and living bless
The sons of woe, and pour within
The lonely l.eart Of deep distress:
