Homo Sick for the Country"

SINCE the Almighty placed our first pa
rents in the garden of Eden, passion and
love for the country has been natural to
the heart Of man. a correspondent of
the kniceerbocker gives vent to this feel
ing us follows:
For my part, am weary of city life,
and sigh for the Great Mother. l sec the
waving of trees, but they arc rooted in a
church yard, or grow between flag stones
| hear the notes of singing birds, but they
are pewter canarics at siNpcnce apiece. I
am tired Of water running up and down
ieadnn pipes, and through cocks and filters;
want to sec it rise like Naiad. dripping
from tue well. am haunted of 'stoops,'
and have sort of green sickness for por-
ches clambered over with greenery. l
wish for other flowers than artificial, and
desire to look upon rain, not as an incon-
venience, but as blessing to the crops.
I'd kind o like to have cot
Fixed on some sunny slope n spot
Five acres more or less
With naples, cedars, cherry trcos,
And poplars whitening in the breeze.
Twould suit my taste | gncss,
To have the porch with vines ocrhung
With bells ofpendant woodbinc swung,
In every bell bee,
And round my lattice window spread,
A clump Of roses white and red
To salace mine and me,
kind o think | should desire,
To hear around the lawns choir,
Ofwo ,d-birds singing sweet;
And in n dell I'd have a brook,
Where might sit and read my book.
Such should be my retreat,
Far from the city's crowds and noise,
There would | rear the girls and boys,
Qhavc some two or threc)
Andif kind Heav'n should bles, my store
With five or six or seven more,
How happy should be
The man who wrote the above il one
after our own heart,' and if &" Old Enick."

PROSPECTUS OF
THE COTTON PLANT,
Southern Advertiser.

Published ,ceekiy, to advocate Direct
Trade, Manufactures, agriculture, and
the Development of Southern Resources
By C. @. BAYLOR, Washington. ID. c.
The importance Of such a Journal as the
above, needs no exposition. The material
and substantial interest Of theSOuth have
been too long neglected The Cnoon Plant
is established to promote these interests,
keeping entirely aloof from party poll
tics. A complete foreign and domestic
correspondence has been arranged. The
best talent of the country will contribute to
ouT columns, which will present medium,
of general communications, correspondence,
and information for the friends of the mea.
sures we advocate. The proper steps have
been taken in Europe and America to lay
the foundation of direct foreign trade at
the South, and to introduce our coarse man.
ufactures into the continental European
market. One object Of the Cotton Plant
will be, rs the organ of direct trade, 10 stim-
ulIte the South to carry out this important
measure.
We call upon the Southern merchants gen.
orally to send us their business cards, that
we my lay them before the country, to ena-
BILE the friends Of southern commerce, man.
ufactures, &c, TO discriminate properly in
their desires to promote southern enterprise,
The importance of Washington City a
point of location for such Journal, especi.
ally in regard to opening foreign correspon-
dence and promoting our foreign relations
is apparent The opportunity of seeing
here, also, members Of CongreA from every
district Of the country, presents a means Of
general cooperation not to be found else
where.
To the Cotton, Sugar, Rice, and Tobacco
Planters, we look confidently for support
and to the friends of Direct Trade" through
out the south we say-"show your faith by
your works"

Female Her oism.

"OSE day." said Massens, "being at
Bnezenden, | perceived a young soldier be-
longing to the light artillery, whose horse
had just been wounded by lance. The
young man who appeared quite child,
defended himself desperately; as several
bodies Of the enemy lying around hum
could testify. despatched an officer with
some men to his assistance, but they ar
rived too late. Altaough the action had
taken place on the boarders of the wood,
aud in front Of the bridge. This artillery
man had alone withstood the attack Of q
small troop Of Cossacks and Bavarians,
whom the officer and men ! had despatch
ed put to fight. His body was covered
with wounds, inflicted with shots, lances
and swords. There were at least thirty.
