3aiiy Advertiser.
Day of wrath, that day Of burning
All shall melt, to ashes turning,
As foretold by seers discerning.
Oh, what fear 1t shall engsnder
When the judge shall come in splendor,
Strict to mark, and just to render.
Trumpet scattering sound Of wonder,
Rendng sepulchres asundor,
Shall resstless summon thunder.
All sghast when Death shall SILVER,
And great natures frame shall culver,
When the graves their dead deliver.
Book where every acts recorded,
An events all time afforded,
Shall be brought, and dooms awarded.
When shall sit the Judge unerriDs,
He'll unfold all here occurring,
No Just vengeance then deferrius.
What shall say that time pendings
Ask what Advocates befriending,
When the Just man needs defending.
King Almighty and all knowing,
Grace to sinners freely showing,
Save me, Fount of good o'ernowing.
Think, oh Jesus, for what reason
Thou endur'dst sarth's spite and treason,
Nor me lose nthat dread season.
- Seeking me, Thy worn feet hastedj
on,the cross, Thy soul death tasted
4 Let such labor not be wasted.
Righteous Judge Of retribution,
Grant perfect dissolution.
Ere that day Of execution
Culpri-ike, I--heart all broken,
On my cheek shame's crimson token
Plead the pardoning word be spoken.
Thou who Mary gave commission,
Heardst the dying thef's petition,
Cheer with hope my lost condition.
Though my prayers do nothing merit,
What is needful, thou confer it
Lest endless fire inherit
Mid the sheep place decide me,
And from goats on left divide me,
Standing the right beside Thee.
When the accursed away driven,
To eternal burDings given,
Call me with the blessed to Heaven.
beseech Thee, PROSTATE lying,
Heart in ashes contrits, signing,
Care for me when l am dying.
On that awful day Of wailing,
Human destines unwilling,
When man rising stands before Thee.
Spare the cuprt, God of glory.

THE STUFF THAT CLOVER is MADE oil

THE STUFF THAT CLOVER is MADE Of
The clover plant when properly cultivated
and properly used, may be made one of the
most valuable aids to the farmer of Maine
that they have.
1t is good for feeding animals, and it is
good for feeding the soil. This makes it very
valuable. Let us see what stuff it is made
of. Various analyses have been made by diff
ferent chemists and the general results are
very much the same. The variations are
such as might be expected from the different
circumstances of growth, &c.
The most recent analysis, we believe, is
that Of Professor Horseford. After burning
the plant to ashes, he found that one hundred
parts of the ashes contained almost twenty
three parts Of carbonic acid, and little more
than one part Of coal and sand.
He then examined what was left after de-
Quoting out the carbonic acid, and the coal
and sand. He found that 100 parts Of this
last contained Is parts l thousandth of an
other part Of potash-that is, 100 pounds
would give you over l6 pounds Of potash
soda, over 40 pounds,-maguesia, over 8
pounds,-chlorine, 2 pounds,-phosphorate
acid, nearly 4 pounds,-sulphric acid, over l
pound, silica (aint) 2 pounds
| We have stated these things in the rough,
and you must remember that 1t is one hundred
pounds of the ashes, and not of the clover
ITSELF 1t takes one hundred pounds of the
clover itself to make eleven pounds Of ashes
) or eleven hundred pounds Of clover to make
one hundred pounds of ashes According to
this, the above amount of articles are to be
found in eleven hundred pounds, or little
more than half ton of clover hay.
From this it would seem that ashes which
contain potash-plaster which contains lime
and sulphuric id,--and salt which contain,
soda and clorine would make good fertilizer
for clover, and experience proves that they
are. These are the mineral ingredients, bu
: clover also contains gum and sugar, waite
which may be resolved by analysis into car
bonic acid, oxygen and hydrogen, much o
which it obtains from the atmosphere.
In ploughing under clover We return to tn
soil, substance OR dressing which has col
lected and packed away in its system or or
gans, large proportion of the ingredient
t above named, and which, when the Glove
r decomposes, gives them forth in soluble form
: for the use of such crops as may be plante'
s in its place and may need them.
e The wheat crop requires most of the sam
:. ingredients, though in different proportions
S The corn crop (Maize) requires large pro
r portion of potash, and would be benefited b
such dressing. Hence, clover which by it
J, broad system OF leaves, can obtain from tn
n atmosphere many of the gaseous material
/, necessary for its formation, and by its dee
r and strong spreading roots can gather fror
k the soil mineral matters, changing and elabt
d rating them into different combinations is we
L. fitted to be an agent in system of rotation
re and becomes an improver when properly use
for that purpose, either when fed to cattle an
r then manure used therefor, or when ploughe
s, under as green crop.

A FATAL AFFRAY.-The Vermont Journal
states that in Lisbon, n. H., on the 2Sth ult.
an affray occurred between Mr.. Daniel Priest
and a young man by the name of Quinby,
which resulted in the death Of the former r.
1t seems that the two had quarreed and upon
Quimbys attempting to enter the shop in
which Priest worked, in defiance Of the
threats OF Priest, he was seized by the latter
who was much the most powerful man, and
held IN such manner as to occasion to Quinn
by the most excruciating pain, Quimby
endured the agony as long as he could and
then threatened to stab his tormentor unless
released. Priest only tightened his grasp,
and Quimby, drawing knife stabbed him in
four places. Priest then relaxed his hold,
being fatally injured, and died in about Il
week. Quimby has been bound over for trial
in the sum of Sl5O0. The Vermont Journai
states that public opinion justihes him for
the commission Of the deed

enough to ill his pail, and then became gross

On the ey ming OF the ith OF July he was
in that vicinity, and he probably made his

REMARKABLE ESCAPE FROM FouNpERING.-
The barque swan, Of Baltimore, on the pas
sage from the city of Rio Janeiro sOlne months
back, suddenly sprung a-leak, and in order
to save the vessel, the captain bore up for
Pernambuco, where she arrived making water
fast and was Immediately run aground to pre-
vent her sinking, On examining her, the leak
WAS found to proceed from a hole in her bot
tom, through which a carpenters chisel was
projecting. 1t was ascertained that the chisel
had fallen into the pump, when the vessel
was building, three years before, and by the
action of the pump had gradually chisselled
II hole through the bottom planking, four
inches in diameter, the exact dimensions of
the pump orihce. The piece of plank, which
is three inches thick, was cut out, aud with
the chisel, and tho plate OF copper, the ia eyed
edges of which had prevented the chisel from
falling through, We're brought on here as Gu
riosities, by Captain Hinckley, of the ship
f. Bulkley, and shown to US, But for the
vessel being able to reach port when she did
she must inevitably have foundered, and her
fate, like many another noble ship, been prob
ably forever enyeloped in doubt-N. YORK

KIpN.PPING A WHITE GIRL-The Philadel- |

KIpNAPrING 4 WHITE GIRL.-The Philadel-
phia ledger states that on Friday last at an
carly hour in the morning. white girl,
fourteen years of age, the daughter of Mr.,
Samuel Goodshnll, residing within three
miles of Downington, Chester county, Pa,
was met whilst in the country by two men,
who after putting some questions to her, put
pitch plaster on her mouth, and putting
her into a close carriage, drove off towards
the Maryland line. After driving her about
L. miles from her home, they let her out
upon the road, and drove rapidly off. She
state. that the fellows offered her no insult
OF personal violence, except that occasionally
when her sobs and efforts to cry prevailed,
they threatened to knock her brains out with
the whip, The solution TO this outrage is
that the men mistook her for mulatto, and
designed taking her into the state of Mary
land. Ascertaining, however, while on the
route, that they had made prisoner of sun
burnt white girl, they concluded to make the
best OF an error by giving her leave to lind
her way home.
