THE CksrAL Sssrf,i. AS the cen
tai system Is being adopted in most
q our grain markets, the following,
which We clip from an excIlan .,e
may be serviceatle:
= The standard weight Of wheat
yer bnshel is 90 pounds: corn and
rye, IS pounds oats. 30 pounds !;
barley, 4S pounds. The price per
bashcl being given, to find tile price
per GENITAL multiply the price per
bnsllel by one hundred, and divide by
the number Of pounds il bnshel.
FOR instance: Al 81 80 per bushel
tor wheat, what is the prizes per cen
.al l5Oxl0O equals l4,O00x6O,
equals ~ 80, which il the price yer
csrltal. Again: The price per GENITAL
being given, to lind the price per
busIlel, multiply the price per GENITAL
by the nuinber OF pounds in bushel
and divide by 100. Example: AT
~ 50 per Genital, what is the prlce
per bushel u 100 pounds .--250x6O
equals 15,oo0xi00 equals Sl5O-
the price VI bushel. The above
rule is 90 simple aud easy that people
will soon become accustomed 10 the
new method. Already tile market
reports Of most OF the cities are given
by the GENITAL system, and it will soon
be universal.

Seward and his Ben.

Seward and his Bell.
BY COL. FERGUSON, OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
Where is the bell, the silver bell,
That lately breath'd with every chime
strangely fascinating spell,
That hush'd the traitor and his crime?
Why sounds it not the clear alarm2
Or has it lost it's magic charm?
Are there no foes that threaten yet,
No advocates of tyranny
Are there not those that dare beset
The paths that lead to liberty?
Where are the rights our fathers won
And handed down from sire to son?
Our fathers struggled long and well,
In North and South are many graves;
Ana yet, it seems, they only fell
To make their kind the slave Of slaves.
The splendid dream that led them on
Leaves not its mantle now they're gone.
A band Of patriots once We stood -
And felt we had common cause;
And freadnm rIlld tho hrnthorhoc1
With equal rights and equal laws. Q
But nothing's left US but the name
or what We we're or whence We came.
The crash Of arms, tho battles strife,
The, squadrou's laundering hoof is
The cause that stirr'd them into life
Lies bleeding and forever crush'd.
No martial tramp of banded men
ls heard from mountain, glade or glen.
The truly brave will ever shun
To pile the pyramid of woe,
And when the field is lost and won,
The vict'ry leaves them not foe.
Heroic deeds must win applause
From those who arm against the cause.
The rebel and his host o'ertbrown,
The traitor mounts the victor's car:
And claiming trophies not his own,
He hisses venom from afar.
he feeds on hatred at his case
And treason rides upon the breeze.
Dark PASSIONS throne is in the hall
Where Justice held her peaceful sway;
And traitors revel DER her fall
AS eagles scream above their prey.
While DER the Southron's sunny land
The satrap rules with iron hand.
Are they not traitors that forget
The common veal and freeman's cause?
Are they not perjured that have met
And set aside their country's laws?
or Cataline such deeds we tell
Ah! Seward, ring again thy bell.
Ring out its warnings far and wide,
Der hill and valley, field and flood,
And crush the daring fratricide
That tramples on his fathers blood.
The time, the cause becomes it we'll,
All! Seward, ring again thy bell.
