POETRY.
From the Charleston Courier.
FOUR HUNDRED YEARS AGO.

Wild were Thy plains, Columbia,
Thy plains of evergreen:
And ne'er before upon thy shore
Were foreign footprints seen
But, through thy groves the savage roy'd,
Where mountain streamlets flow,
Where brave Columbus crossed the seas,
Four hundred years ago
With hearl Of steel that fear'd no i'll,
With followers true and brave,
He babe farewell his native dell,
And tried inc tfeach'rous wave;
He dar'd to roam the ocean foam,
Where stormy breezes blow,
And to Thy shore glad tidings bore,
-Four hundred years ago
Faith was the guide-faith true and tried
That cheered him on his way,
And pointed out the pathless route
10 where thine islets lay;
Hope was The star which shone afar
With bright and dazzling glow,
And steer'd his bark mid dangers dark,
-Four hundred years ago
But chang'd the scene since then, I ween-
The savage chIefains fled,
And where Of old the grim wolf strol'd,
Proud cities reared their head
And fertile plains Of golden gram
In rich uxuriance grow,
Where all was drear as autumn scar,
-Four hundred years ago
On many a crag our starry flag
Waves o'er the brave and free,
Our natives ride 10 all their pride,
On every sounding sea
And nations gaze in stark amaze,
For well the nations know
Our name and fame was not the sams
-Four hundred years ago!
And far away where the will winds play
Through The forests dismal night,
An iron steed with lightning speed
Darts like a ray of light;
And steamers glide DER the sparkling tide,
Where weary and faint and slow,
The red man drew his light canoe,
Four hundred years ago
Then, hail Columbia, happy land,
Home of the poor oppressed!
May still 10 thee the exile flee,
And find place Of rest;
And may thy power increase each honr,
Thy sons in virtue grow,
And die OF save what Colon gave,
Four hundred years ago!

HUMANITY TO HoRsEs.-A person who has
had some experience with horses says:
"When horse has fallen, from the slippery
state of the ground, the readiest method of ena-
bling him TO rise is to place piece of old rug
OF carpet under his lorefeet, and he will be able
TO get up at once. Many horses are seriously
strained BY their efforts TO rise on slippery
ground, and this is most particularly the case
with those of high spirit, and frequently those
greatest value are SO frightened by the fal
that greater injuries 10 themselves, as well a:
danger 10 those in The carriage, ensue from vair
