THE FARMER. Sod of the soil, inured to toil, Heboid the cultivator, Load forth his band to till the land, The happiest man in nature. O'er Lawyer, Fop, and Dr. Slop, And Captain Flash transcendant, Of Government the chief support, On him we're all dependent. Without his aid the pi inter too, Would be .slim as any taper; In vain he'd fret, some cash to get, To pay for types and paper. Then let us toast, our country's boast. Our country's strength ihe farmer! "May he .want bread the ninny head; Who won't re spect the farmer. THE KISS. rGive me, sweet maid, one gentle kiss; To my fond heart 'twill nectar provt Kot tamely thus, df-void of bliss No this is not the kiss of love! ' So gentle sisters calm embrace, So kiss tho placid wavs the shore, So zephyrs kiss ln floweret's face, WTith baby fondness nothing more. No, this is not the kiss that wakes The boiling blood in every vein, That every nerve with rapture shakes, Till ecstacy's alive to pain. Nol so did Psyche's fevered lip Prised on the glowing cheek of love; Nor this the way that roses sip The dew descending from above; Not so tin quivering ivy grasps With clinging arms, the oak, her spouse, "Whose form with bridal warmth she -clasps Just such as hashfulucas allows! Go. lov-lv mil! go, frigid maid! You know not Love, nor feel his fires W: en all the senses are betrayed, Zti uew burn, undefined desires! Slay "lay forgive, that burning kiss T'-ai trembling pressure speaks the whole; Thou didst but feinr,, and this, and this, Is nectar to my thirsty soul! Unheeded now the lightning flash, IT n felt the whirlwind raging by, Unheard the thunder's loudest crash, Life knows but thou ami eotarv!

We have received from William A. Mears, Esq. who is un questionably the most enterprising and successful agriculturist we know of in North Carolina, an account of his experi ments in cultivating the Gama Grass, to gether with a description of the plant it self, which we hope will be the means of directing the public attention to it, and enabling many of our readers to find it on their lands. It has always appeared to us a fact discreditable to our State, that Hay should be imported here from the Eastern States. And we doubt not that this experiment, the first made in North Carolina, will lead to our independence in that regard, and be of incalculable ad vantage in promoting the wealth of the eastern parts of the Southern States.
