BETTER MOMENTS
uv .s. r. WILLI";.
My mother' voice! how often creepi
lu. cadence on my lonely hours !
Like healings sent en wings of sleep
Or dew on the unconscious flowers.
1 might forget her melting prayer
Whilr pleasure's pulses madly fly;
But inthe still unbroken air .
Her ent!o tones ccme stealing by
And years of sin and manhood flee
And leave me at my mother's knee.
The book of nature and the print
Of beau'y on the whispering sea
Give still to me some lineament
Of what I have been taught to be. .
My heart is harder and perhaps
My manliness has drunk up tears
And there's a mildew in the lapse
Of a few micrable years ;
But nature's book is even yu
With all my mother's lessons writ.
1 hive been out at even-tide
Beneath a moonlight sky of spring.
When earth was garnished like a brido
And night had on her silrer wing-
When bursting buds and growing grass
And waters leaping to the light
And all that make tlio pulses pass
With wilder fleetnes' thronged the night
When all was beanty then have I
With friends on whom my love is fluug
Like myrrh on wings of Araby
Gazed up where evening's lamp is hung.
And when the beau'eousfpiritihere
Flung over me its golden chain
My mother's voice canto on the air
Like the light dropping of the rain
And Testing on some silver star
The spirit ora bended knee
I've poured a deep and fervent preycr
That our eternity might be
To rise in heaven like stars at night.
And tread a In in? path of light.
THE PRINTER.
From the St. Louis Reveille.
Click click click goes the type in his stick.
Noting human events as crowding thick
They daily before him arise.
The burst of joy and the wail of .sorrow
The deed of wrong and the hope to-morrow
He scans with eager eyes.
The His of this ever-changing life
Like shadows flit a teeming throng;
And each page he turns is ever rife
With its moan its jest its tear or song;
Ho marshals its doings condenses it s hum
Wakes it again with the sound of his drum
Laughs at its freaks lives carelcssand free
And merrily hails life's last "Reveille."

WEEVIL IN WHEAT.
To the editors of ths Tenncsset State Agrl'
cidlurist:
Gentlemen. Having made a small ex.
perimenl upon the weevil wheat I state the
facts for jour information. In 1S43 1 filled
a hogshead with wheat shortly after har-
vest throwing in a handful of common salt
with each half-bushel. It remained perfect
ly dry sound and free from weevils until it
was sowed in October. In 1844 a pan of
the crop was cleared out immediately after
harvest and spread in a dry garret: the wee.
vils soon ruined that. A patt was put in a
granary in the chaff and was partially inju-
red by the weevil. The residue was placed
in a hogshead as before a pint of salt being
sprinkled on each bushel; and it is now as
sound and diy as when put up. The salt is
not absorbed and may be sifted out and ns
ed for stock- without loss.
This idea I derived Iromthe Agriculturist
and it alone has already saved me several
times the value of my four years' subscrip-
tion. Very respectfully
Yours ob't serv't

them are of German descent from Pennsyl-

mospectus or THE !
TEXAS NATIONAL REGISTER.
EARLY in December ncxt.the'undersigned will
commence the publication of a weekly newspa-
per at the town of Washington to be called the
Tlxas National keoistcr.
The interests of the publishers are directly in
volved in the general prosperity of the country ;
and as such they will labor in their appropriate
sphere and in a becoming manner to disseminate
uselul intelligence encourage puoiic virtue ana
sustain faithlul government. They have no cause
to advance which is not common to every good
citizen ; and the course they have prescribed to
themselves will they confidently believe be ap-
proved by every patriot in the several quarters of
the Republic. They rest their claims to public pat-
ronage solely upon the mannerand spirit in which
they shall discharge their duties as conductors of a
public journal.
In the editorial department politics will not be
regarded as the science of partizan jugglery ty
which the temporary success of & faction may be
secured or the personal advantage of the aspirant
promoted ; but ratheras a code of principles which
ought to be ooservea tor tne preservation 01 our iree
institutions and the maintenance of a firm effi
cient aud beneficent government.
The undersigned begin tneir career wholly un-
trammelled. AH public measures acts and pro
ceedings whether executive or legi.-Jatiie under
lie present or succeeding administration wit be
carefullv examined disnassionalelv discussed and.
if approved freely commended if the contrary they
will oe as learlesy condemned.
As the judiciary in its importance and dignity is
in no wise inferior to either of the other divisions
of the government its upright and independent
action will be especially sustained.
The undersigned hare no animosities to gratify.
Ihey therelore unreservedly pledse themselves
that their columns shall not be disgraced by any
indulgence in tnal personal abuse and emDiltered
vituperation which have so unfortunately char
acterized a portion of the public pres. They
desire to matce their sheet a national paper not
only reputable to themselves as men and members
of society but creditable to the country.
The form and size adopted together with its
permanent location at the seat of government will
render tne Kegister a convenient repository ot
valuable matter which may be readily preserved
and filed orbeund for future reference. It is inten
ded to accompany each volume with a title page
and index.
An abundant supply of paper and other materials
has been provided w'hich willsccnre rezular is-ues
and obviate the necessity of occasional suspensions.
It is deemed best for ell parties that the cash
system without qualification should be adopted
Subscriptions therefore will not bo received nor
advertisements inserted unlca paid for in
advance. The ousiness stipulations between
the p"blishers will require a most rigid adherence
to this requirement. Exchequer bills will until
further notice be received at par.
The names of subscribers should be aecurattly
and legibly written and the post-oca to which
their papers are to be sent particularly specified
An extra numserof copies will be printed to supply
subscribers who may desire to have Use paper com-
plete from its commencement.
All communicati ns with the office must be ad-
dressed to YV. D. MILLER Editor ofthe National
Register Washington Texas.
