"While 1 nodded, nearly mapping"
The RAVEN
The drowsy hum of the murmuring bees
lowering the lavender trees,
Steals thro' hafshut lattices;
As awake or asleep-I scarce know which
lazily lOl near windOw-nche,
Whose gossamer curtains softly stirred
By the gauzy wings of humming bird.
From airy heights, the feathery down
Blown from the nettle's noddng crown,
Weary with wandering everywhere, -.-,
Sails slowly to earth thro' the sultry air;
While indolent zephyrs Oppressed with perfume"
Stolen from many bamy bloom,
Are falling asleep, within the room:
Now floating afar,-now lowering near
Dull to the eye and dumb to the ear
Grow the shapes that see-the sour DIS that hear:
Every murmur around dies into my dream
Save only the song Of sylvan stream.
Whose burthen set, to somnoent tune,
Is played by "the leafy month of June"
Al things are hazy and dreamy and dim,
The flies in lazier circles swim,
On slumbrous wings, on muffed feet
Imaginary sounds retreat;
And the clouds-elysian isles that lie
In the bright blue sea of summer sky
Fade out, before my closing eye.

PORTSMOUTH, N. c., Sept 6, 1853
MEssRs. ED1roRs:zI have observed an article in
the Raleigh Register of the 2Sth ult on the subject
of Democratic Prodgality, which betrays so much
ignorance on the part of the editor, that send you
few facts to enlighten him. He says that we had
idea that the flush times had been so very flush
as it seems they were-so flush as to require that
the Custom House officers at Ocracoke seven in
number. should receive two thousand three hundred
and one dollars and fifty-two cents for collecting
revenue of eightytwo dollars and fifty five cents
The price of living at Ocracoke must have been
Intensely high" Now, what would the editor
think Of the flush times and the price of living un-
der Mr. Fillmore s' administration, when he is in
formed of the fact that at this Port of Ocra-
coke, during the year 1851, the Custom House off,
GERS, eight in number received two thousand nine
hundred and twenty dollars to collect sixty dollars
and six cents. Mr. Corwin, the then Secretary of
the Treasury, made attempt to abolish the Office
of Deputy Collector; but the economical Wigs
made so great clamor, that he was compelled to
restore it. This office abolished by Mr. Guthrie
in the spring Of 1854, and Temporary Inspector.
who is paid two dollars per diem when actually EN-.
ployed, now performs the duty that was heretofore
performed by the Deputy Collector The salary ofthe
Deputy Collector $40 per month, and the pay
of the Temporary Inspector averages about $50 per
annum
Thus it appears that this very ertravagant admin
istration, so far from increasing the expenses at
Ocracoke have reduced them, saving to the govern
ment by this one act $40O per annum. But this is
not the only reduction made by Democratic ad
ministration.
During the administration of Mr.. Fillmore there
were three hands employed in the revenue boat at
Ocracoke Inlet, at salary of 500 per month or
$s40 per annum. In October, 1853, Mr.. Guthrie
dismissed one of the hands, thereby, saving $24O
per annum. still further reduction was made on
the LIST July last, by reducing the pay Of the two
remaining hands from $40 per month to $15 per
month, saving of 1920 per annum
The expenses. of collecting the revenue at the
port of Ocracoke has thus been reduced since Fill
more's administration from 900 to s. l6o, saving
$76O annually. The following comparative state
ment will show the difference at glance:

Ocracoke and Hatteras Inlets, in the collection
districts of Ocracoke, the only means Of ngress
and egress for all the commerce of North. Carolina
north of the port of Beaufort. As long duties
collected SO long will it be necessary to have
collector at that place to prevent smuggling, which,
without revenue officers, would be carried to a
great extent No duties are collected there as ves-
sells permitted by law to bond their cargoes and
pay duties at the interior ports where they belong,
viz: Newbern. Washington, Plymouth, Edenton,
Elizabeth City, &c. The amount collected is for
hospital money, paid by the vessels belonging to
that district and the vessels generally small
being used principally to lighter larger vessels and
manned in part by slaves, the amount Of course is
inconsiderable All vessels from foreign ports
tering this district boarded by an officer of the
revenue, their cargoes examined and manifest
dorsed before they are permitted to proceed to an
interior port.
The most onerous duties of the collector at Ocra-
coke is in his capacity of superintendent of lights
There seven light vessels and two light houses
under his superintendent all the accounts of
which are triplicate and the amount disbursed for
them quarterly is between four and five thousand
dollars. commission Of IL per cent. is allowed
on the amount of these disbursements which must
not exceed the sum of $4OO per annum. If there
were no collector at that place, it would be impossi
BILE to employ a competent man to perform the du-
ties of superintendent of lights at salary of $500
per annum.

HoRTICULTURAL FAR.-The second annual eX

will commence in connection with the Meehan.
ies' Institute Exhibition, on the first of Septem.
Der next Those who recollect the splendid
show made by that Society last year, will look
forward with eagerness to the pleasure again
in store for them. We extract the following
from the Soeiety's circular
"The object Of the Society being to foster and
encourage all departments of scientific and
practical Horticulture, we invite the aid and
ready cooperation of all who feel interested in
the growth and perfection of tree, plant, fruit
or flower, to help make the Fair alike credta-
BILE to the Society, as we'll as to the industry,
taste and skill of the hortculturists of Califpr-

accrue to communities, societies and individuals
from public exhibitions of the product of their
industry and skill, and the mutual good feeling
and harmony engendered by these annual gath
erings Of our intelligent cultivators, should be
a sufacient indueement, aside from the very lib,
eral premiums offered, to call out the active Coz
operation of a largely extended list of member:
Of the Society. The very liberal policy pur-
sued by the Mechanics Institute towards this
Society, by which the horticultural and Me-

other in producing an exhibition creditable tc
