Respective producc, isa grand result
Ofthe ineessant moving, wcrkingpowr
OF this gtca, engine Of the public good
All manufactures feel is mighty force,
Their hourishlng condition at this time,
Unto very great extent is due
To their co-cporalion with the prcss.
On agriculture, layshly, the press.
Hath e'er bestowed It's aid Each triumph new
Each new invention in this nobleart
Is published to the world, commented on,
So that mankind at large the benefit
May reap Of all improvements thatsre made,
The methods that are best are pointed out,
So that the poorest farmer In the land
Can have the same advantage with the rich
And great We cannot estimate the vast
Improvement in thisa the press hath caused
Look back but few short years? Then rails
ing fruit
Was thouht but little of throughout the South
Upon this point the Southern press hath been
Unanimous. 1t has cried, for fruit;
1t has impressed upon the peoples minds
How well our soil, and air so balmy, are
Adapted to the growth of fruit and now
Where once waste fields, and barren hill ap-
peared,
Orchards and vinlards swectly bloom, and
grow,
In green, luxurious majesty, and hang
Their golden treasures on the Autumn's brow.
The no,al intrest Of the South has, too,
Been much enhanced oflate, by This same pow r
A few years back, rich homes of elegance
And pride, stood forth in stony granduer, bright
And gay with everything save floral smiles.
Twas only here and there garden filled
With lively, blushing aow'rs appeared. Be
hold
The change! Now almost every home reserves
A portion of its ground tor this wise use
To hold sweet heavens faircst gift, TO man.
What pow'r hath touched chord of purity
And upward turned our mortal ,houghtyl
see
In fancy, far away among the years
Gone by, sad and gloomy editor,
Musingly, leaning 'gainst garden fence.
The burthsns Of the day had wearied him,
In body and in brain and as he there
Reposed violet q little child
Had planted, sent sweet perfume to him.
The favor he accepted thankfully,
And looking round, hesaw the little thing
That SO much sweetness gave, and happier felt
Because the eyes, the blue-eyed violets
Had meet, because he had its fragrant breath
Whispered an idea to his soul: This earth
Might smile with flow rs, their sweet perfume,
and bright
And beauteous eyes, might greet US every
where,
II men could for a little while, forget
The wealying cares, and greedy aims Of life,
And plant and cultivate these lovely things
That always bear within their fragrant cups,
Sweet Messages Of the Creators love.
We must have how'rs, the editor replied,
And homeward with buoyant step he turned.
He sought the partner of his joys and cares,
"My DEAR said he ''lcts have some Aow'rs,
let's have
A flower garden"
ut would be- said she,
"0f all things most delightful II we could
Afford ii love-
"A few papers of seed
Said he, Twill not cost much
Thus, they began,
And while his soul was sweetIy thus inspired
He wrote string, thrilling, little piece
About the soothing influence of fow'rs
Upon the heart how much they gave Of pure,
Sweet joy, and filed the mind with holy,
thoughts,
And unto children ever were source
OF happiness, and lifted up their souls
To God the giver Of all beauteous things.
He dwelt upon the idea, that much
They added 70 the beauty, and the worth
OF the most humble home, and then he closed,
With an appeal to every one who owned
