Midst Crimean wilds, and Scythian gloom;
Caesar, thy Idcs Of March have come;
Go Marc, seek again thy tomb
Cease Davie, cease thy stupid talk,
And burn thy black board and thy chalk
Great Tuly, let thy tongue be hushed,
Let Catelme now be at rest
What care 'ce, for plottcrs crushed
II is but nonsense at the best
What care we for anejen! lore
The modern is sufficient bore.
All could the Bards Of ancient tune,
Ere they their harps inspired strung,
Have seen the anguish which their rhyme

any purpose; yet it seems to be indigenous TO
our soil. often making its appearance after
wheat or oat crop, forming complete sward.
Il makes good pasture. but less of it than
other grasses. We never knew it mown for
hay We cannot see. however. why il might
not be proftsbly sown with timothy or other
grasses. either for pasture or hay. 1t would
form an underground for meadows without
at all interfering with the growth of the limo
thy or clover, and would thus add considers-
bly, to the product. In England their pas
lures are composed of q number of kinds of
grasses. generally. if not always including
white clover. and if such course were adopt
ed here We have no doubt many more cattle
could be produced on given amount of land.
