Oh. Rose OF May thy beauty bright,
Is blended with the light of mind;
And worth and grace and love unite,
TO form the queen of womanknd.
A happy fate must needs be thine,
Courtcd and sought and loved by all
But thou hast wrung this heart of mine
The fading wilow-wreath is all,
Oh, Rose of May for me.
Oh, Rose of May! but once for me,
Loves blossom opened to the light,
Ii smiled, it bloomcd alone for thee
1t dropped and withercd in night
Thou wilt be loved and sought for yet,
The cynosurc and pride of ALL
To me remains alone regret
The willow wreath the sable pail,
Oh, Rose Of May for nc.
Oh, Rose of May! when Love shall call.
And deck'd and jcwelId thou ar. led,
Into thy proud ancestral hall,
In youth and bcauty--to be we,

on his own stock acknowledge, and neigh
borhood is divided from neighborhood as
if by an impossible gulf We knew no
hing Of what is transpiring outside OF Our
own neighborhood, and not unfrequently
never see our nearest neighbors more than
once in six months. The wisely observi-
ent man may pick speculation out of the
conversation Of the most stupid, and i'm
prove by the blunders of others. But do
we manifest any desire to gain informa-
ton, to abandon our false notions, and to
avail ourselves Of the salutary improve
ments Of the agel The mass of agricul-
turists seem indissolubiy welded to the
customs Of their fathers.
Book Farming" is a synonym of ar
rant folly and i'll success.
This is a serious obstacle to improve
ment Iffarmers would organize county
societies for the distribution of premiums,
the interchange of individual experiences,
the discussion of new improvements, and
theories, they would add to their stock of
knowledge, and give fresh impulse to
agricultural progress. The social relations
and neigllborly charities, that such re-un-
ions would produce, are alone enough to
Justify the formation of these county soci-
cites. We must act with concert if we
would accomplish anything of moment.
shall conclude this artice by invoking
planters, however meagre their early edu-
cation may have been, or much neglected
to take agricultural papers, to throw aside
their aversion to book farming, and to i'm
prove their minds by judicious course OF
reading. Do not lag behind the age, nor
cling to customs which have long since been
condemned. But above all, employ all
your arts Of persuasion and influence, to
dissuade your sons from embar'sing in
professions now too much overstockcd.-
Agriculture opens a fair field for the exer.
else Of their talent, and affords full scope
for their ambition. Edmund Ruffin has
earned fame that time cannot erase
lie is more of a benefactor of his race than
the hero, whose claims to fame are recor,
ded in blood. Respectfully yours

The New Volume of this unrivaled and

The well established charact ter of Graham's

THE BEST AMERICAN MAGAZINE.
DOUBLE NUMBERS FOR 1852.
The reading matter of Graham's Magazine
for this year will be about double that of
former volumes, making book unrivaled
by any that has ever appeared in America

AS tn sweet notes rolled in fondest carcss,
Most beautiful, thou appeared mid the wan

The faircst bright star of eve, upoH the brow

For the deep thought could find no outward

only felt that you and were parting,
and the idol of my fond hearts shrine
That to be doomed in loves first blush TO
Alas for love to part, hope not forever
The evening light that lullcd my new dis

Faded away farin the gloomy sky,
The gentle breezes ceased their fond carcsses
While yet fingered for thy sparkling eve
10 look kindly on me till my spirit could
borrow,
From its soft glance some gladncss for the
morrow.
The late hour came the gentle moon looked
kindly,
Ger the glad earth-thc parting hour came,
looked up and gazed, but oh how blndly,
Beneath thine eyes was as one struck dumb,
