COMPARATIVE EXPENSE OP THE
HORSE AND MULE TO THE FARMER.
Mr. Editor Tor tlie lasl four or five vears I
have devoted tnj UMie mostl) lo farming and during
that tunc liarc paid a good deil of attention to the
feeding of my horses a.id therefore have learned
pietty well the excuse of keeping that ammil on
the farm. I hive long since come to the conclu-
sion that the mule u out J he much cheaper as a
wurkirg animil on the farm than the horse and
hive therefore determined a? soon as 1 can dis
pose of mj horses without too much saenrice in
price to procure a full team ol them and isj them
in all my larmmj operations. nen i hm- iiuo
consideration the utj great saing to the firmer
b the use o! the mule lnsteid of the horse it is a
natter of great surprise to me that our rmproMiig
and intelligent agriculturists shoiiM Iu;e delayed a
tiling of such inij ortanco as thi-s to th a tun.

I propose r.oiv Jlr. Editor to give vou a calcu-

use of mules 'nstead of hoises and for that pur-
pose. I ill tal i "cim of tea for a period of twen-

Accnidmg to tins estimate we have the s irprt-

ia mules instead of horses ; but large as this sum
is it can be fairly augmented tu upwards of four
thousand dollars by taking into the calculation the
preaier longevity and exemption from diseases of
the mule which items are not set down in the a

A REMEDY FOR COLIC IN HORSES.
Vr. Puffin I have intended for some time to
request ihe re niblicalion of "A Remedy for Colic
in Horse-" which jppeaied tn the Southern Plan-
ter Vol HI ac 47.
I have used ihe medicine with entire success for
seven years tnd 111 several of the severest cases I
1-vcrsavr. I had lost two of the best horses 1 ovvn-

out of a hundred that are said to be grubs th 1 hor-

Look forth nor fear the summer sho.ver
Has burned to the sea.
In solemn stillness glides the moon

Prom light to shaJow play ;
The fleecy clouds like spirits bright
Haste o'er th" midnight sky
And rain-drops tremble in the light
That falleth from on high
Then look forth maiden of my heart.

THE MAIDEN.
Br JOSEPH R. MEEKER.
One sunny day in the month of May
I met a Maiden fair;
Her heart was light and her face was bright
As the glow of the morning air
And ehe tanj a song as she tripped along
And 1.1 her dark brown hair bowers
She wove 3weet flowers from the wild-wood
Ai.d she laughed as she placed them there
And not the powers of those bright flowors
Could vie with her beauty rare.
A jear has 1own and the same bright ono
Now stanJs at the altar's side.
Her plighted vow is sacred now
And she smiles a happy bride
Her heart is light and her smile as bright
As when in her hair she wove
The ('elicato Cowers of tho wild wood bowers
The emblems of Maiden love.
As the half blown rote doth its leaves unclose
Vhero the rooming sunlight stream
So a Maidcd's heart anow will start
Vhcn loTe illumes bcr dreams.

the effort to pull him on shore. The water
in the canal running swiftly at this point Cap

ten to our assistance. In the meanwhile vvc
were deceived twice hy portion-) of her dress
which hud been detached and were floating
on the surface. winch wc drew uul in the vain
j hope that they might Mill be connected with
the body.
Disappointed in this wo Knew not wnai
course to adopt ncarlj all the passengers
had collected together on the bank hut no
one could even guess where the body lay
The boat below came up at this moment fur-
nishing additional light and assistance dipt
Vateman ordered one on boaid to draw up
the line under the hope that it might come in
contact with tho body and raise it to the sur
face. This actually happened and after a
short time it was broiignt to shoie taken up
to tho Packet Boat and every eii'ort madu to
restore animation but in vain. She had been
too long (about ten minutes) under the water
which was cMrcmel) cold. Unfortunately
among so many passengers there was not a
smgle Physician. and our little medical knovvl
edge extended no farther than to have her
wrapped in warm blankets placed near tho
stove and rubbed briskly lor some hours.
These cflbrts proved unavailing death had
secuicd his victim.
Several circumstances make this visitation
peculiarly painful. She wni a foreigner
the wife of Captain James Killer of the lint
ish merchant serv ice h id just t cached Itich
mond in the morning and was on her way to
join her husband who had purchased a Linn
in the county ol Mercer and was engaged in
prepating a houso for her accommodation.
Two interesting boys of si and three jeurs
of ace. her only children were with herjand
an English gentleman and his wife under
whose protection 'he was travelling anu
whose gtiefanil distraction excited ihe sym-
pathies of nil. while they bote elruiig tesli
mony to the virtuos of the unhappy woman
But what most deeply touched the feelings
was Ihe delicate condilion of tho sufferer.
Fearing that the striding air of the cabin
would hasten her daily expected cotilineiiient
she got up from the Ladies' Cabin saying she
would "go to the door and get a litllo pure
air" and being unacquainted with the nai-
row pass-way in front of the second cabin
stumbled and fell overboard. Tim splash was
heard but supposed to have proceeded fiom
something thrown from the kitchcn;uinil her
cries as she first rose some twenty jards in
tho rear of the boat revealed tho secret.
In conolusion permit me to say that I have
never seen more sympathy in any crowd.
All offered thoir services. The captain of the
boat with his hands (one of whom Mr. Tims
merits the gratitude of every human heart
and who was finally restored to life) did eve-
rything that could bo done. A subscription
was immediately raised to send (he two inter
eating and intelligent children to their father
and to give decent interment to the body
which was brought up to Lock No 2o where
a kind hearted old gentleman Mr. Mosby
(who was on board) generously otiered to
take charge of it and attend to the last sad
duties. The children were also lelt with the
gentleman and lady already mentioned Mr.
William Holroyd and wife) and our hearts
bled to hear their piercing cries as tho boat
moved off; for until then though oftentimes
enquiring for their mother.they had not heard
cf their loss.
