From the Cincinnati Mirror and Chronicle. THE MANIAC, Wreck of beauty ! thine the sadness Which no human tongue can tell; . For the fearful blight of madness Hath upon thy spirit fell And thy pale lips ever moving With high words or muttering low, Curses on the "traitor proving," Tell a tale of guilt and woe. Fallen beatify! once no weeping, Sorrowing, or shame, or care, Gave thy days and nights in keeping To the vigils of despair. Then, oh then, witli glad laugh ringing,'' Well, do I remember thee, O'er thy llowery path-way springing, Like a wild fawn, fleet and free. But the spoiler came to nestle All those early joys among, Giving birth to thoughts which wrestle With the virtues of the young. Trusting maiden ! wrong the feelings, Which that wily tempter's art Brought, and twined by subtle dealings 'Round thy young and guiltless helrt. Wretched beauty! vain thy curses, For they can not kill the past ! Or blot out the sad reverses Guilt hath round thy fair fame cast. Spare thy curses forkeen anguish Must its hated visage rear O'er him 'till his false soul languish Ir. 1 r ,

Shout, reapers, shout your "harvest home;" Shout praises to tho glorious Lord, Who pour'd the rain, who warm'd the sun, Whose bounty has our garner stor'd. He bade the spring with zephvr breath Blow mildly o'er each frozen glade, Till bursting from the bonds of death ' Uprose the green and spicy blade. In vernal showers his goodness flowed On every hill, on every plain, His providential care bestowed The early and the latter rain. He beckon'd to the farthest south, And call'd young summer into birth, .then crown'd with blessings sent her forth I O shine upon the gladdened earth ; And bade beneath her genial heat, The soil its varied riches yield, That man might from his labors reap The income of each fruitful field. And next, as onward roll'd the year, Brown autumn, with her plenteous horn, fenook trom her lap the ripened ear, The bearded grain, and yellow corn. And when by fruitful increase spent, The land from labor sought repose Old winter from the north he sent, ' To wrap her in his hoary snows; And bade him in his icy chain Bind earth and air, and field and flood, lill balmy spr.ng should breathe ain Her fragrance o'er each flower and bud. Thus all the seasons in their turn At his command their treasures pour Inatman with grateful heart might learn Hie bounteous giver to adore. Then turn each eye, and bend each knee.

From Niles' Register. The value of the products of our country is of a mighty amount. The annual aggregate is not less than fifteen hundred millions of dollars! A writer in the Charleston Pat riot, speaking ot cotton, says Tke quantity which will be exported the present season, may be fairly estimated at 1,230,000 bales, of which the western states will probably export about 745,000. Now, if the average price assumed be 10 cents per 1 ii i i . - lounu, ior au kinds, throughout the year, be admitted, the result would be ' a value of nearly 76 mill ions of dollars, which is six millions beyond our original estimate. The probable crop of the western states will te about 4o,Ov0 bales, the average wcioht per bale, about -130 lbs. at 10 lMCenl3, $50,710,000 the probable crop of the Atlantic states will be about 4S5,000 bales, the average weight per bale, about 325 lbs. at 10 cents OOll AAA . 63,939,000 i iic quantity consumed in tin TTnilnl S and the value of thcse,vlien man ufacturetl, is more than forty mil lions ol dollars. Our manufactures ol cotion now embrace a great variety of goods though so lately connnea to "sheetings and shirt ings, and shirtings and sheetings." It now includes nearly all nine tenths, perhaps, of the calicoes, or printed goods, consumed, that cost o cents, or less; and will soon ex tend to such as cost 31 cents the yard, at retail and here, ncrliane iv "in, lur a wiiiic, stop but not long: and it takes in a wide nwv ol very Itght goods, as well as beverteens and other heavy and sub stantial articles for the use of work ing men, and others, who wish to clothe themselves cheaplythe prices of all which arc very moderate. As to tho light goods, "in which it was supposed that we could not excel, we know a large establishment that uses only 1,000 lbs. of yarn, but makes from 7 to 8,000 square yards of cloth, weekly. Many great mills are building for the manuficture of cotton goods for the British East Indies, China, the. PhilUppincs, &c. It is within bounds, we think, to say that, including machinery, buildings, &c, the cot ton manufacture of the U. States, in its first circulation of values, only, amounts to not less than fifty mil' lions of dollars per annum. I'ilfi Wnnl r-mn rC Vear was nmlml , ' " -r ....

The Catskill Recorder thus speaks of this article which is manufactured by a company in the City ofNcwioru: "The cement, which is at first like ordinary mason's mortar, becomes by age and exposure as hard as granite itself, and resists the action of frost underanycircumsiar.ee. We were shown cisterns, well curbs, sections of an aqueduct, and a monument, which were snid to have stood in the open air through the last winter, and the summer thus far. These, when struck smartly with a trowel, gave out fire, and a clear ringing sound, which indicates the abscence of any flaw. The cement is first moulded, then polished with a trowel, and afier it has had time to harden, glass itself could not be more absolutely impervious to water. In all situations where it is desirable cither to confine or shut out water, the cement answers every purpose, and is withal, as wc are informed, a very cheap material. In the process of hardening it suffers no contraction, and in constructing from it works ofanykindno other care seems necessary than to protect them from being mutilated or defaced, while in a green state. This material is now cmployed for a variety of uses, and everyday calls for its application to some new purpose. We think that it will yet he extensively used in the construction of docks, aqueducts, canal locks and rail roads. The facility will, which it may be moulded into blocks of a uniform size and shape, seems peculiarly torecommend it for bedstones on which to lay the rails; and in answering such a purpose it may very materially reduce the expense of rail roads as at present constructed.
