Where first within thy timid ear brea'hed love's burning dream ; 13)6 birds we loveu still tell (heir tales Of music on eacn spray, And still the wild rose decks the vale But thou art far away. In vain thy vanished form I peek, By wood and stream and dell. And tears of anguish bathe my cheek Where tears of rapture fell ; And yet beneath these wild wood bowers Dear thoughts my soul employ, For in (be ineoMcies-of pact hours, . There is a mournful joy. Upon the air thy gentle words Around me seem to tnriil, Like sounds upon the wind harp's chords When all the winds are still. Or like the low and 60ul-like swell Ot i hat wild spirit tone. Which haunts the hollow of the bell When its sad chime is done. I seem to hear thee speak my name Id sweet low murmurs now, 1 seem to feel thy breath of flame Upon my cheek and brow ; On my co d lips I feel thy kiss, Thy heart to mine is laid Aksthat such a dream of bfibs L'ke other dreams must fade ! MISCELLANEOUS. From the !mericcui Farmer. RENOVATION OF WOUN OUT LANDS. We copy with great pleasure the follow ing excellent paper from the pen of If. K. Burgwytm, Esq., of Northampton County, N. C. from the May No. of the Southern Cultivator, in which paper ittias been pub lished, in anticipation of the "Patent Office Report," for which it was written. We a;ree with the enlightened editor of the Cul tivator, that if the "Report" contained noth ing else than the essay in question, the mo ney which will be expended in printing it, will be profitably laid out. What Mr. B. stales is not theory, which may or may not be true, but are the results of his own prac tice and experience, and, therefore, impltcitly to be relied upon. In reading Mr. B.'s excellent communica tion, we regret that lune and marl were not available in his district, as either, if used in connection with bis pea-leys, would render his soil infinitely more productive. It is possible, however, that the slitf clays which underlay the lauds of his neighborhood, and which are brought to the surface by his deep ploughing, contain notable portions of lime, potash, aud sslts of iron in various stages of oxiJition, and may thus afford healthful supplies of the two first named substances; but even in that case, benefit would result from the applications of lime in the quanti ty so propei ly suggested by the discrimina ting n.irtd of Mr. B., or, even less quantities "A quantity of lime," says Mr. Tcvis, "which does not exceed the thousandth part of the tilled surface layer of the soil, a like proportion of drawn ashes, or a two hundredth part, or even less, of marl, are sufficient to modify the nature, change the products, and increase by one-half the crop of a soil des titute of the calcareous principle." In an other part of his valuable essay on the prop erties and modes of applying lime, he speaks most approvingly of the practice of the far mers, La S'trthe, France, who apply, every third year, Hi bushels per acre, in compost made of one part lime, and seven or eight parts of good mould or earth. In those districts of country where both lime and marl are to be had, but where the toil has been exhausted by improvident cul ture, by adopting the deep tilth and pea-ley system of Mr. B., and by liming or marling, the proprietors of such lands will greatly add to their productive capacities. We invite your attention to the following: Improvement of Worn Out Lauds by the Use of Peas and Clover. By II. K. Burgwynn, Esq., of Northampton County, Jf. C. Having heard from various reliable sour ces of the great success of Mr. Burgwvnn in renovating worn out lands in North Caro lina, we were particularly anxious to obtain, from his own pen, an account of bis practice in this important matter, for the Agricultural part of the Patent Office Report. At our re quest, Mr. B. sent the following able and in structive esay, which we take the liberty to publish in the Cultivator, kimullaneously with iu going through the press at Washing ton : "There are large bodies of land lying in Eastern and Middle Virginia and North Car olina, which have been to much reduced by continued cropping, planting tobacco, cotton, and sowing oats, as bo longer to pay the cost of cultivation, and are 'turned out as waste lands.' These really still possess a good saarc of fertility, and, by a very rqoderate expenditure of labor and attention to com mon sense principles of agriculture, may be reclaimed, and have their productiveness in creased from 190 lol50 percent. They can he rua-Je truly valuable ; and I do not hesi tate to say, as the result of m? experience, mat they will give a greater profit in the course of five years1 cultivation than can be uenved from any except our rich river lands. "This is ihe method 1 have adonted. and by which I have increased the products of ucb lands from 1 1 to 2 barrels of corn to 4 barrels per acre. The increase of wheat is I'tortoitionably greater than that in corn. oi y system of culture is substantially as for low?: 'If the 'broom straw iu which these wate lands always grow up, retains any sap, uy which, when turned under, fermentation will ensue and cause the straw to rot, let the hud cs it is, be plowed with the largest size p.uvs, drawn by three or four horses, running j -;7py -'sjg' " uvm J il? IB LI. inchesand turning everything under. If uiHiVM UU UO. ll will oaM ml itv - s- mwT'tnffm thai-ease bura iTOffiml plow wwertii puuioiey ; louow-eacn plow, and goeor 8heVdeeper. -Thig will make tle s'ff clawhich laKsVerry where un deflieV our land, inofe open lo genial in fluences of the sun and air j and enable it to.get rid of the aorpUis water of winter, and heavy ralnB in other periods of the year. 'About.the middle of Jiine following, wberi ihe weeds are 'about half grown, and before they have formed their seeds, sow the land broadcast at the rata of a bushel per acre, of any of the numerous varieties of peas among us, except the black. eyed,' which having very little vine, affords little shade. In all cases, I prtfer those which have the most vine, and ripen earliest. When the land has much of weeds or grass upon it, turn under the peas with any kind of plow, running not over three inches deep. If the land is bare of weeds, I prefer covering the peas with a large h?nvy harrow, running both ways first lengthwise, and then across tTieTieds. As it Is important ld give the pea 8 a start over the weeds and grass, I soak them six hours in water, and rub them in plaster of Paris ; and when they begin to leaf and branch, say when 12 inches high, I sow plaster at the rate ol a bushel per acre. This stimulates their grrtwth, and they over- power the weeds anil grass. 'When about half the peas are ripe not half ripe' hogs should be turned in to trample and cut up the vine.", otherwise it is extremely difficult to turn them under. So soon as this can be dor.e, the hogs should be taken off for the peas are useful for sha ding the land from the summer's sun a most important matter in all improvement ! and jri vinil to the tbin soil a large mass of vine-leaves and other vegetable substances, j From experience in the use of both, I think peas not infeiior to clover (to which family, indeed, it belongs,) as a specific manure for i wleat , . , . . , ! der' you have a pea ley,' over which sow a bush el and a half of wheat per acre, and six quarts of clover seed. Harrow them in thornujjh'y, and let the work be finished by the middle ol October. The return wiil, of course, depend somewhat on the quality of the old field;' but I venture to affirm that it will amply repay nil labor and ou' lay. and astonish by the great result apparency from so trivial a cause. I am familiar with the great increase of crops from the use of lime and clover, and I do not mean to compare the two mciiidsof renovating land as equal : but where lime is not to be had, there is no application that can compare for a mo ment, on well drained land, (if it need draining) with plaster, peas and deep tillage. No gold mine is so valuable as a good marl pit. I am however, confining myself to interior districts, where neither lime nur marl can be had. 'After the wheat comes off in June following, the clover if sown early in October, wiil have grown so as to ulude the land pretty well, even on the waste lands I speak nf. It 6hou!d not bo grazed the first year at ah; in the February after, top-dress it with all the manure to be had, not foTVeitin? to auolr all the t,U tk witLin rh This tune of the year (winter) is the best fr j applying manure in our country, where the h"t j sun acts so injuriously on a bare surface. The ! roots ol the young clover Deing pro:ecifO irom j naru irost anu suuaeu cnanjjes uy me manure, n j shoots forward With the eeriest warmth of sprii g j and smothers all weeds. When weeds mature I their seed, they draw upon the fertility of 1-tnd equal to most crips. Clover gives a cr.p cquil ' to any other, and is all returned to Ihe land in! dreppines of the stock while grazii'.s upon i:. As proof of i s profi', for three years I have never fed my working horses on grain or fodder, fr m the middle of May till the clover fails. They are turned on the clover field after the day's work is over, and taken up in the morning in good condi tion for service. I have never lost one by thi management ; in fact, they improve from the lime they are thus treated, and work better. Alter the clover has been on the land two summers, during which period it has dropped three crops of leaves and stocks, and thereby greatly improved the land, either turn it under as before in September or Ocober, for wheat, or later in the fall for corn the ensuing' year. In the former case, you will find your land as thirkiyset as be fore with volunteer clover, whirliougnt to remain as a pasture lor toe summer, alter me seconu crop of wheat comes oft If corn, instead ol wheat, be crown, sow peas broadcast among ihe corn at the last plowing, soaking the sepd and rolling them in plaster as before. After the corn crop, do not suffer the land to lie ou'. ISoer- ror can be more opposed to good tanning thn that which assumes that land is improved by ly ing out" and permitting a crop of weeds to mature upon it. 1! we had duly renecrco, tins error would Ion erg nee have been apparent, in the con tinued quantity of thousands of acres lying waste around us, not a tehit improved by 'lying out.' After the soil has once been brought up by peas. subsoiling the deep ploughing and clover all within reach of the farmer even in the interior it will not again relapse, unless the former barba rous and senseless practice of exhaustion and negligence be again adopted. If lime can be had even at the cost of 20 cents a bushel, I would in all cases spread it on the land, after the first crop of peas had been turned under, to the amount of fifteen or twenty bushels per acre. This quanti ty will greatly benefit the land, and enable the owner shortly to repeat the application of a like quantity." STILL THEY COME.
