WAITING.

With waiting and wishing our courses we
pave;
We wait for the port as we battle the wave I;
IT'S waiting forever from cradle to grave.
Waiting for morn, so serene in its light;
Waiting for MONDAY, so brilliantly bright;
Waiting at eve for repose in the night
Waiting for zephyrs in springtime that blow !;
Waiting for summer and flowers that grow !;
Waiting for winter and swift-falling snow.
Waiting is ever the bosom's refrain,
In moments ofpleasure and moments ofpain +;
Waiting, though stricken again and again.
Waitingi in childhood for youths joyous time;
I'm waiting" says Youth, "but I'll certainly
climb
To the top of the ladder on reaching my
prime"
In manhood awaiting the time when we may
Find rest on calmer, a happier day,
When age shall relieve from the worrying
fray.
Waiting when fortune sheds brightly her
smile;
When choice are the pleasures the pathway
beguile,
There always is something to wait for the
while.
Waiting in poverty, anguish and grief;
Waiting for Heaven to send us relief,
Telling the heart that the trial is brief
Aye, waiting for joys that will never appear
Waiting for voices we never shall hear;
Waiting for moments that never are near.
Naiting when SHINING and worn in the strife
GERS of penitent throbbings the bosom is rife,
nited SEA dawn of holier life.
nited States last for the spirits release;
,ay Gov 40 a rest in the dwelling of peace,

WHITE AND YELLOW Conn. An old
subscriber wants to know "'the difference.
if any, in nutriment between white and
yellow corn for man or beast" There is
no specific difference, so far as color is
concerned. Yellow corn is better food
for stock because the grain is less flinty
and easier to masticate. and consequently
TO digest. 1t is often noticed in the
spring that horses will leave white corn,
while taking yellow corn freely. Yellow
corn is richer, perhaps, in the essential
bills. such as fusil oil, &c. The idea,
however, that yellow cornmeal is more
nutritious than white proceeds from the
fact that yellew corn is usually grown on
richer and more southern soils white
corn more exclusively at the North
Northern corn is Hinty aud has larger
proportion of the csrbon-making pro-
ducts, starch. &c Southern corn is
richer in the nitrogcn-yielding products.
Hence the difference is primarily in soil
and climate, and not in color. At the
North yellow cornmeal is preferred be-
cause yellow corn is raised at the South
but here in Maryland. where we grind
our own corn, we prefer bread of white
eornmesl. because il is equally nutritious
more paiatabie. being less rank in
taste II ground alike, yellow meal is
probably as diges,ibIs a. white. but,
yellow corn being softer, j, makes iiner
meal with the same set OF burrs than
white corn. aud, consequently. gives a
heavier bread Ia baking
