PATRIOTIC SONG.

A song for the day beaming Ger US
An anthem of juvenile joy;
A rapturous, heart-stirring chorus,
For this is the Fourth of July
Yes, this is the Fourth Of July,
The glorious Fourth of July:
Then send up the heart-stirring chorus,
For this is the Fourth Of July.

And just in the midst of the season,
He sends us the Fourth of July.
He sends US the Fourth of July;
The glorious Fourth of July;

BUTTER MAKING.

Mr.. EDITOR: Butter has become so
important an article in our market, that
any hints as to the best method of impro,
wing the manufacturing thereof, must be
very acceptable to our farmers; especially
such hints as may enable them to make a
superior article. Width view of graft
flying them in that respect, | hand you for
publication, the following process, which
has been in practice in the county OF Alb.
berdeen, Scotland, for al least century,
with an assurance-tha the butter prepar.
ed in this manner, sells in that market
for 80 per cent. more than that made in
the usual way:
Take two ounces of the best common
salt, one ounce Of clean sugar, and one
ounce of saltpeter; beat them together
until they are completely blended; then
take one ounce Of this mixture for every
pound of butter; work it we'll into mass,
and close it up for use. The butter cured
in this way appears OF rich mar
rowy consistence, and fine color, and
will continue pleasant to the tase for al
least three years; 1t should, however, be
permitted to stand closed, at least three
weeks or a month, before it is opened for
se,-for if sooner opened the salts are
not sufficiently blended with it. Some.
times the GOODNESS is perceivable, but il
will lotally>disappear in time. B.

The following strange story is related
in the Quebec Mercury Of May eth: As
Capt. Daniel German, of the ship Jesse,
from Limerick, was on his outward voy-
age, and when about forty'fve miles
southeast of the Island Of Anicosti, du
ring thick fog, and surrounded by field
ice, he heard the report of gun. Sup
posing it to be signal from another yes.
sci near at hand, he caused the fog bell
TO be rung, to avoid collision. In about
twenty minutes the fog cleared off, and
his sh ip was found TO be close TO piece
of ice, on which lay in view the body OF
an Indian, with a dead seal alongside OF
him. The first poor fellow, it is connect
ured, despairing of relief from certain
death by starvation, had just put peri
cd to his existence, not imagining that
aid was really SO near. They probably
went out together on the field ice TO kill
seals, and had drifted out to sea, when
the first dying from the cold, the other
committed suicide to avoid a more lin.
gering death.

SELECT POETRY.
THE LITTLE SUICIDE.


The following thrilling Song, as sung by Mis-
LucRETIA A. WRIGHT, the accomplished female TEN
peIance Lecturer is one Of the most affecting piece
thathOs been presented to the public for many years
rending lines were written upon, are as follows:
small lad, some six or eight years Of age attended
School, where he was ridculed and had the fingero
Scom pointed ut him. because his father was drunk
ard. The little fellow could not forbear the shame
any longeri he went home where he found his mo
thcr lying very i'll. With tears in his eyes, he pro-
cured rope, and went to the barn, and there com.
mitted the awful deed Of sef-dcstuction. When
found by the iucbriae father the poor little boy wa,
dead, OH who would be drunkard and thus in.
directly be the death Of his child:
Oh let me go home
There's no more trouble for me,
I'm going to roam in happy home,
Where drunkards children are free.
I've played with my mates,
With pleasure been half wild;
But now the boys suspend their joys,
To frown on drunkard's child:
Chorus.
o boys this cruel world,
wish that l could die,
I'll soon lie down in the burying ground
Mother don'tyo cry.
Yes, let me go home,
And see my mother once more;
And then away to the barn to day,
And to deaths dark door.
No use for me now,
I've played the last Of my play;
For my fathers shame bear the blame,
I'm dcspised and driven away.
CHoRUs--O! boys, etc.
Farewell to the boys,
With hearts so happy and light; ..
In study and play they spend the day,
And have happy home at night
Farewell to disgrace,
My tattered clothes you See
I'm going to live where the law will give
Protection to mother and me.
CHoRUs-O! boys etc.
Farewell to our hut,
Not fit to be called our home;
When there go It's sorrow and woe,
I'd rather go down to the tomb.
Farewell to the man, .. -.
That made my father wretch
He'll come hope and remove the rope,
From around my furrowed neck,
CnoRUs.
Oh boys, this cruel world,
now swing off and die;
So carry me down to the buryiug ground
Mother don't you cry.
Farewell little boy,
From earth you are driven away
And fed by law is the hungry man,
b.. That devoured thee up to day.
How dark is that crime,
That makes brute Of man
And drives child to maniac wild,
Prescribed by legal ban.
CHORUS.
Farewell poor little boy
No wonder you choose to die
Wc'll carry you down to the burying ground
And forthe MAINE LAW" cry.

9R@ BOAR s0Na,

Lightly row! lightly row!
Der the CLASSY waves we go;
Smoothly glide, smoothly glide
On the silent tide.
Let the winds and waters be
Mingled with our melody,
Sing and float, sing and float
In our little boat.
Far away far away!
Echo in the rocks at play;
Calleth not, calleth not,
To this lonely spot.
Only with the sea-bird's note,
Shall our dying music float,
Lightly row lightly row!
Echo's voice is low.
Study low, study low,
Ladies don't disturb me so;
Whisper not, whisper not.
In this pleasant spot.
In the school room you are bound
To suppress the slightest sound
Silence reigns, silence reigns,

several excursions among the villages and
coynGelds, which last he found in high cul
I tiyation. The houses were generally
matched, but those Of the better sort were
covered with tiles having yards and small
gardens within Enclosures.
-Four days after the interview, the pres.
ents were interchanged, time having been
required to erect places for their recep.
ton. Those for the Emperor consisted
Of among other things
A Railway with Steam Engine an
Electric Telegraph; Surf Boat; Life
Boat Printing Press fine Lorgnette;
a set Of Audubon's American Ornitholo-
gy, splcndidly bound Plates Of Ameri-
can Indians; Maps Of different States Of
america Agricultural Implements, with
all the modern improvements piece Of
cloth a bale Of cotton a stove; rifles,
pistols and swords Champaign, cordials
and American Whisky.
And for the Empress (presuming there
is one j.
A telescope; lorgnette, in a gilded
case a lady's toilet-box, gilded scar
let velvet dress a changrable silk dress,
flowered asplendid robe Audoban's it,
lustrated works handsome set Of Chi
ma; mantelpiece clock; parlor stove;
a box Of fine wines; a box Of perfumery;
box of fancy soaps.
Of the other presents, perhaps the one
most value was copy Of Webster S com
plete Dictionary to one Of the Imperial
interpreters. TO the high officers were
given books, rifles, pistols, swords, wines,
cloths, maps, stoves, clocks, and cordials,
the last of which they fully appreciated,
and, as regards clocks, when it was pro.
posed to bring an engineer from ship
board to set them going, the japanese
said there was no need for that, for they
had clock-makers in Yedo who under
stood them perfectly. They were curious
to know, however, about Ericsson's calo.
ric engine, of which they had heard, but,
from the Commodore at any rate, we sus-
pect they would not receive very favor
able opinion of its practical utility.
Whatever may be thought of some Of
the other presents, the Railway and Tele-
graph, at which the world at the time was
disposed to laugh, were happy hits. The
Rail is only about three hundred yards in
all, but being formed in circle, the car
riage can be driven at the rate Of forty
miles or more. Just at first the Japanise
were chary of venturing into the car, but
after single trial there was much good
humored competition for places. The
Telegraph still more astoniShed them, but
they will speedily understand it, and may
possibly by this time be laying down the
wires for themselves.
