THE ANNUAL HIKING OF NEGROES The time
for hiring negroes for the year 1853 will soon ar
rive. Main street will be converted into enc vast
un-ooted intelligence Office and the owners, mas
tiers and hrers, in accordance with tho annual GUS
tom, will briefly dance attendance unpon their
black attendants An article upon this matter Of
hiring negroes, published in the Southern Plantsre
for this month points out OF the evils al eyed
to be connected with the present system Of hiring.
1t sets forth that it is injury to all parties the
hirer, the hree, the negro himself and society at
large. Formerly, the owner himself exercised
care in selecting aster for lis slave, and placed
him where, in his Judgment, lie ought to lie; but
now the negro is permitted to 'choosc his master,
it is called ii other words, he is permitted to
exercise faculty of which he has less than of any
other quality, to wit discretion and under orcum-
stances which leave him no room to give fair play
to what little he has. The consequences are what
might be expected; he either selects master who
he knows will indulge him, will exact but little la
bCr, and grant him many privileges and good
dca Of time for himself, be is brioed by money,
or the promise CT privileges, to live with some one
wh), possibly from hope Of certain profit! to ac-
crue from modicum Of labor, is willing to take
him on such terms, aid thereby plants the germ of
rebellion in the contract for obedience and stiPu-
lates himself into certain amount OF Sc ryitulle."
Inc article proceeds at some length to advocate
the position that masters should choose a good
home for their slaves, whare they would be com.

LECTURE AT THE ArHKNKum.-On Monday
evening last, Professor Scherb, of Switzerland,
lcctured at the Athen@um upon "the nature and
mission of Art and Poetry as illustrated by acknow.
lodged master pieces of different ages and coun-
tiles" Mr. S. speaks the English language very
imperfe city, and this defect impaired the effect Of
the address to considerable degree. His style was
also very incoherent and whole the lecture
was tame and spi tless After alluding to the cha
racter of art and poetry, and institutng compsri
son between the two, Mr. S. proceeded, at some
length, to define poetry, alleging that it was the
germ aud music Of life ard the voice of the soul
Poetry was from God, q development OF the practi
cal by TIE masinatiou-by faith. Faith was tue
handspring of life, and poetry was its exponent
Poetry a development of the good aad the
beautiful The beautiful and the good were the
same poetry and religion were the same in es-
sencce. Il was not the mere chyming or putting
together of words that constituted poetry The
true poet WIS Influenced by religion, and life Of
the good snd beautiful. The lecturer here gave a
very wild aud wandering account of true poet -
He described four orders Of poets; and in the
highest and most select was constituted If those
who possessed the inward love for the good and
beautiful.
Poetry useful in cultvating the jliess affec-
tons and voices Of man; it purified the heart and
comforted and strengthened the mind. Some
beautiful imagery alone saved the lecturer from
making a bankrupt OF kis literary reputation.--
There were scarcely so persons in attendance.

PRESERVING SHEEP FROM Docs
Have any of our farmers tried the fol-
lowing plan to keep dogs away fiom
their sheep:
Let me publish to the sheep-rasing
world, remedy against The destruction
of sheep by dogs, which was given me
hya highly respectable and valued friend
himself an extensive grower. 1t con-
sists simply in placing on one sheep in
every ten of the flock, bell of usual
size for sheep. The instinct of the dog
prompts him to do all his acts in sly
stealthy manner-his attack upon the
sheep are most frequently made at night
while they are at rest, and the simulta-
nsous jingling of all the bells, strikes
terror to the dogs; they turn tails and
leave the sheep, fearing the noise of bells
will lead to their exposure. The ratio
Of bells may be made to vary according
to the size of the flock. The Importance
of sheep preservation from dogs, the
writer hopes, will claim for this commu-
nication an insertion in most of the pa
pers of the Union, that remedy cheap
and simple may be fully tested.
