Oh, weary heart thou art half way home;
We stand on LIES meridian height
As far from childhood's morning come,
As to the graves forgetiul might.
Give Youth and Hope parting tear
Hope promised but to bring us here,
And Reason takes the guidance now
One backward look--the last-the last
One silent tear, for youth is past
Who goes with Hope and Passion bacb2
Who comes with me and Memory 0n2
Oh, lonely looks the downward track
joys music hush 'd-IIopes roses gonel
To Pleasure and her gddy troupe,
Farewell, without a sigh or tear
But hearts give way and spirits droop.
To think that Love may leave us herel
Have we no charm when Youth is flown
Midway to death left sad, alone
Yet stay as twcre a twilight star,
That sends lis thread across the wave,
sec q biightning light from far,
Steal down Il path beyond The gravel
And now-bless God Its golden line
Comes DER and lights my shadowy way,
And shows the dear hand claspod in mine
But list what those sweet voices say:
The better lands in sight,
And by its clustering light,
All love from liles midway is driven,
Save her whose clasped hand will bring the
on TO Heaven

GIVE YOUR Cum A PApER.-A child
beginning to read is delighted with
newspaper because he reads names of
things which are familiar; and will make
progress accordingly. A newspaper in

substantial information connected with
advancement. The mother of family

And, to my lovers eyes,

There be beneath the skies.
My lover-husband, on whose brow
So lightly lays Times hand,-
1t seems to me but yesterday
Since | a bride did stand.
Yet near six years have rolled around
Since first upon his breast,
With all a true wife's loyal love,
laid my headto rest.
All, those fieetlng years! and in that lapse
What pages have | turned
What lessons, which the world has taught,
Have on my heart been burned
But in my home what happiness,
AS, with a MIXERS pride,

Or count them by my side.
Ny noble boy, whose lisping words
Send through my heart a tide,
And on whose mild and honest face
look with love and pride.
My daughter, on whose sun-lit face
read a spirit true,
Whose sparkling eyes are full of love
As heav'ni is full of blue.
My darling babe, whose winsome WAYS
Doth make all hearts her own
Reigning within our happy home
A queen upon her throne.
These are my jewels-oh, God, grant
That, till my life goes down,
No spoilers hand may wrest from me
One jewel from my crown.
And, God, in mercy keep them pure
From sins and snares untold,
And lead us all to rest at last

This valuable fertilizer, composed Of equal parts
Of Peruvian Glano andfne Bone DHst, is offered
TO Planters as an article in every way superior and
far more lasting than Guanoused by itself. 1t an
established fact that Gnano lacks PHOSPHATE OF
LIME, and also that one halfof its fertilizing quail
ties are dlssi pated in the air, which IS plainly TO be
perceived by the strong ammonical smell CONSTANT
ly emitted by it until its strength is gone. Bone
dust is nothing more than Phosphate Of Lime, and
this. besides being a strong and valuable manure.
fixes the ammonia in the Guano, and retains it an.
til it is absorbed by the plants. A trial of this
fertilizer will satisfy any one of its durability and
superior efficacy to simple Guano.

pounds each, at two cents per Id.
SUPER PHOSPHATE OF LIME.
This highly concentrated fertilizer is composed
Of Animal Matter, SnIphuric Acid, Bone Dust,

GROUND BONES.

The valuable qualities of these are well known
to all intelligent agriculturists. Persons about set
ting out Pr1lt Trees or Grape Vines should order
sufficient to put at least a peck at the roots of each
tree or vine, and no ether manure will be needed
in the orchard or vineyard for years. They are
ground into two qualities, coarse. and fne;-the
coarse is one and a quarter cents per pound; the
fine one and a half cents per pound. They are
put up in barrels of about two hundred pounds
each.
