Crookshank, Thomas Barlow, John Ward, junior, Lauchlan Donald- son, and W. F. W. Owen, Esquires. Commissioners for Vartridge Island and the Beacon LiglU Houses: — John Ward, Junior, and Lauchlan Donaldson, Esquires. Cape SaUc Seal Island Light. — ^The first Light, in approaching the Bay of Fundy, is on the South Point of the Seal Island. This light is elevated about 80 feet above high water mark, and may bo seen in approaching the island from any point of the compass. A very dan- gerous rock, under water, but upon which the sea always breaks, call- ed Blonde liock, lies about two miles S. S. W. by compass, from the Light House. Between this rock and the island, there are some dan- gers — ^the ground is rocky throughout ; and large vesssels, therefore, ought not to attempt passing between them. Brier Island Lighi. — In advancing up the Bay, the next light is situa- ted on Brier Island, about half a mile N.E. from the N.W. point there- of, with an improved Lantern and Lamp. This light will therefore be much more beneficial to the trade of the Bay than formerly. Annapolis Gut LigfU. — The next Light on the coast of Nova Scotia is placed on the West side of the Gut of Annapolis — from Brier Island North Eastward. The coast is very boiu and not ii;dented : the Light is, therefore, chiefly intended as a guide into Annapolis Basin. The lam^s and lanterns were renewed in the Spring of 1835, and reflectors furnished, so that the light is in excellent order. ** The above three Lights are each single, fixed, and show tohite Lights. ' Gannet Rock Light. — This Light hears from the Light on Brier Isl- and, N. W. i W.21 miles. It is intended to warn vessels of their ap- proach to a very dangerous range of shoals and ledges, which extend from the Old Proprietor to the Seal Island off Machias, a distance of about 20 miles.

Note. — Between the Northernmost and Southernmost of the Murr Ledges, there is a range of dangerous rocks and shoals, many of them always above water, and which extend westward from the light house about four miles ; from this range, farther Westerly, about 8 miles, lies a dangerous breaker, called the Roaring Bull. This may be avoid- ed by keeping three remarkable headlands, near the S. W. end of Grand Manan, open.— The red glass having been removed from tlie Lantern, the minute.

Head Harbour Light. — Next in order aAer passing Grand Manan, is Head Harbour Light. This is placed on the N. £. extremity of Campo Bello, and is a guide to vessels entering the main channel to West Isles, Moose Island, and the inner Bay of Passamaquoddy ; it enables vessels also at all times to enter Head Harbour, it is a fixed trAtte Light. Point Le Preau Lights.— Vpon this projecting Head Land, two Lights have been lately placed, one above the other, and distant eighteen feet. — Both lights can be seen from every point of the Compass, where they may be useful — both are fixed and tehite. Partridge Island Light. — This Light, at the entrance of the River and Harbour of Saint John, having been established upwards of forty years, requires no particular notice, further than it is a fixed white Light. Beacon Light. — Within Partridge Island, and upon a Spit or Bar, which extends abouthalf a mile S. S. E. of Sand Point, and which dries at two thirds ebb, stands the Beacon Tower. Upon this Tower a Light is established, which is eminently useful to tlie coasting trade of Samt John, and to all other vessels having pilots on board, as it enables them to enter the harbour at all hours of the night. — It is a fixed white Light. Quaeo. — A revolving loldte Light is placed on a small rock off Quaco Head, shewing twice full and twice dark in a minute. The light can be seen from any quarter where a vessel can approach. West Qmddy Light. — This is an American Light, and is placed on the West side of the entrance into the Saint Croix by Lubec and Eust- port ; — a new light house has lately been erected here, and the Light much improved. Two fixed white Lights, upon the Machias Seal Island, were put into operation in 1833 — they are elevated about 45 feet above high water, and bear from each other E. S. E. and W. N. W. distant about 300 feet, by which they will be immediately distinguished from all other Lights upon the coast, (British or American,) — the following are the bearings from them, viz : — To the Southernmost Murr Ledge, (St. Mary's) E. Z. E. easterly. " Gannet Rock Light, E. by S. ^ S. 13 miles. " Southern head of Grand Manan, E. by N. ^ N. " Northern head of Grand Manan, N. E. ^ E. " N. £. Rock, distant 2 miles, N. E. by N.

[Cf Vessels in standing in to the Northward, between these Lights nd the Gannet Rock, should tack or haul off the moment they bring hese Lights in one, as they will then not be more than three-fourths fa mile from the Murr Ledges, if more than five miles to the East of e Lights.

Mind makes the man — .■THtf; tt<-,{H . Want of it, the fellow. ■.*-fjiif»?f.{r«fe !,-*• This motto, somewhat altered from Pope, has a peculiar bearing upon the agriculturist. The farmer possesses all the privileges, and most of the advantages, of other clasi^es of the community; and if he will improve his mind, his influence will be as potent, and his example as salutary, as the influence and example of any other profession. The richest natural soil will produce neither bread nor meat without ciiliiire. The highest natural gifts of intellect will not profit tlie pos- sessor, unless, like the rich soil, they are cultivated with assiduity and care. Good culture not only improves the mind, and fils it for high mental gratification and enjoyment, but itlightens the toils, and greatly increases the profits of labor. Franklin owed his fame, his fortune, and hi.'? usefulness, to his early habits of study, of industry, and of vir- tue. Without these early habits, he probably would have risen to neither fame nor fortune. Some minds, like some soils, are naturally richer ihtin others; yet even apparently sterile minds, like infertile .soils, may, by good culture, be made to yield great returns. Let the young farmer, then, atipire to the highest lienors of the nation, by en- deavoring to improve his intellectual faculties ; and if he does not at- tain the goal of his wishes, he may be sure of greatly improving his condition and of benefiting others, provided always, that he is indus- trious and honest. Let, then, no young aspirant for fame and use- fulness, shun rural employment, because it does not feed his hopes of distinction, and let no one engaged in this employment, forego the opportunity which his condition present.*, of cultivating his mind, as the surest means of sinking tho fcllotc, and rising to the dignity of the man. Who would not be a Fakmer ? — In that glad season, when the earth is all around bursting into life and beauty, and nature is keeping holiday — \vhen winter is over, and vegetation is waking again from it*! deathlike sleep — when the birds slug tlieir matin song from every bush, and man himself wakes to new life amid tho activity around, wAo irmddnotbea Farmer? For him, and almost for him (done, bloom the fair flowers in nature's field — for him tlie feathered songster pours !ier sweetest note, and for him tlie face of creation wears a constant smile. nm 6 i f PROVINCIAL ALMAXACK. Not Ro with the inhabitaDt of citiet*, or with the professional man or the man of business, any where. These are shut out from the blessed influences of nature. Their business is with men — restless, ambitions, and oflentimes dishonest men — they themselves are all engaged in the eager scramble fur wealth and distinction, sometimes caring little whom they thrust down with their imhallowed trend, so they may mount upon the wreck, and they lose the salutary lesson of benevolence which may be learned from the ways of Providence in the outward woiid. They must maintain a constant struggle with temptation, or yield to its power. Accustomed to so much of evil, they are sometmies al- most tempted to deny the existence of good. But the farmer pursues the " even tenor of his way," undisturbed by the passions of men. His dealings are with nature, and he may, if he will not shut his heart against it, learn true wisdom from its teachings. In the springing grass, the opening flower, and the ripening harvest — in sunshine and in shower — he may see a token of God's love and goodness, and in the quiet of his own home, he may almost forget the existence ofevii. Thus widely different are the conditions of the two classes spoken of Yet we sometimes find farmers discontented with their lot, and eager to join with theii' fellows in the feverish excitement of trade and spe- culation. And very often we see yoimg men impatient to leave their paternal acres, and to seek, as they vainly think, some more honora- ble or genteel mode of earning a Uving. They had rather show a lily-white hand to a lady, as they measure off" a yard of tape, than ex hibit a manly, muscular frame, with a hand which does not shrink from contact with implements of husbandry. It has, indeed, become one of the greatest errors of our time, that young men are deserting the true nobility of the country, for the sake of wearing a more deliaite complexion, or living, as they vainly hope, more at their ease. Hence it is that all trades and professions are overstocked, that we have more lawyers than clients, more doctors than patients and more parsons than parishes. We hear men complain of hard times, mechanics can- not find situations, yet the country is actually suffering, and very se- very too, for a want of proper attention to farming, and why is it? Because many a man who should have followed the plough, has be- come too proud for that, and in his aspiration to be a gentleman has undertaken to wield a pen or administer cataplasms and boluses. To this aiate of things, too, is to be attributed to some extent, the present scarcit)' and high prices of provisions. The production has been al- lowed to fall below the consumption, and this great producting coun- try, with its spare population, nas presented the strange anomaly of importing b^ead-stuffs from the thick settled countries of Europe. It is all wrong. Young men should be taught to regard the employment of their father* as one of the most honorable in Uie world. Your farmer is the independent man. What cares he for hard times, or high prices ? Banks may fail — merchants' notes may be pro- tested, and their drafts dishonored, but " Seedtime and Harvest," that old and stable firm, shall never " fail" — drafts upon tliem are answered at sight, and the bank of nature, where the farmer makes his deposites, is •' good as gold," and always discounts liberally. He laughs at, or more likely pities, those who are left at the mercy of the times, and compelled to eat the bread of carefulness. Beet at eight pence a pound, and other edibles in proportion, does not worry him He ( m, m^^ ■^r iional man or in the blessed ss, anibitioHH, ngaged in the ig little whom may mount troience which ilward worid. or yield to aometmies al- rmer pursues lions of men. shut his heart the s])ringing sunshine and dness, and in stence ofevii. iea spoken of. lot, and eager trade and spe- to leave their more honora- rather show a tape, than ex 9t shrink from become one deserting the more delicate rease.

While want afflicts the rest of the world, he may snap his fingers in his face, as much as to say, " Who caret for you?" :'<:}{ Potatoes. — ^The potato is unquestionably the most valuable root cultivated by man. It is grown with little care, yields good crops, can be grown in almost every variety of soil, and its nutritive propertieB are not exceeded by any other root eithei' for man or beast. Iltouf h it can be cultivated with little care, and though almost any soil WiH produce potatoes, there are few crops that in both quantity and quality better repay an extra attention they may receive than this root. The potato, like most other cultivated plants, delight in a strong rich loam, and other circumstances being equal, such a soil Will usually firoduce one fourth more than one very tenacious and heavy, or very ight and sandy. In new settled districts large crops of potatoes are grown in soils that contain great supplies of vegetable mould, but ex- perience would seem to justify the opinion that in such soils the qua- lity of the potato is rarely first rate. A grass ley -clover is the best — has been found when properly prepared and manured, to be excelkut for this crop ; and if the soil is rather moist than otherwise, it is con- sidered as increasing the chances of a good yield. Countries that have naturally a cool moist atmosphere are found to produce far better po- tatoes than those that have a dry and high temperature. Thus Ireland, surrounded as it is by the ocean, and necessarily of a low and equable climate, is famous for its potatoes ; and of this continent, the part most famed for the quality of this root is New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, which districts are noted for the moisture of the climate. With any part of the uorthern or middle States, however, the fault of not having them in sufiicient quantity, must be traced to the negligence of the farmer, rather than to any deficiencies of soil or climate. The preparation of a field for the potato is simple. If a grass ley sufiiciently rich without manuring, a rare case with this crop, tiie sod may be carefully turned over, rolled down, and then the surface earth loosened with a fine harrow, in which the tubers or sets are to be f>lanted. if it requires manuring, let the manure, and this should be ong rather than short, be evenly spread over the ground ; with the plough make a furrow, and into tliis let one hand haul the manure to the requisite width, while another drops the seed potatoes on the ma- nure so placed in the furrow. This row is covered by the plough, and the operation is repeated until all are planted. Corn on the ley is generally preferred, and roots well manured aAer the corn. The first in the rotation may depend on convenience, as the turf is excellent for either. Beans and Bean Pole$. — Most bush beans should be planted in rot- ten, poor ground — otherwise they will run too much to top, and too little to fruit. But pole beans require a rich soil as they are designed to run luxuriantly. The best pole bean that runs — indeed the best bean of any sort — is the Sieva or Butter bean ; but this requires a long season, and will not generally come to maturity in our climate, unless it can get a fair start pretty early in May. We succeeded, however, last year in ripen- ing them, although not planted till June. The seed was sent us from ■ ■\ .»..«<»'" :&^&^' ./t: PROVINCIAL ALMANACK. 1 Philadelphia, and were different from the common Sievu bean, being speckled with purple. The common sort ir^ entirely white, and we suspect is not so early. With regard to poles — these are an object to most gardeners, espe- cially to persons in villages, who have to go considerable distance to e\U au,d bring them in ; and those which are procured seldom last over a single season. The best sticks for beans are cedar poles. Those who reside near cedar swamps would do well to cut therefrom a sup- ply, o^the right size, iiouse them in winter, and they will last several years. When cedar poles are not to be had, it is a good plan to take a straight rifted cedar log, and split it up into sticks about two inches squaro> These may be made round by Ji draw shave, and will answer an excellent purpose for years. They will cost less than two annual visits to the forest for common beau poles. The poles should be in- serted in the hills firmly, before the beans are ])lanted. Let them be dropped in a circle round the pole, and covered. It injures tlie roots of the plant to drive downtlie poles after the beans are up. — Maine Cultivator. Earlv Peas. — If you desire early peas, reader, let us advise you not to plant the little hotspur variety. Of this you may, perhaps, ob- tain a mess a few days earlier than of the early Washington variety ; but it is but a " mess '■ — one, or at the farthest, two stinted gatherings, and there is all the reward you get for your labour and pains. Better raise what is worth gathering whilst you are about it, even if you have to' suffer the mortification of having your neighbour boast of eating green peas, five or six days earlier than you. The Early Washing- tons are nearly as early as the Hotspurs, and when they are ready for gathering, there is something of them : the pods are larger, atid the peas in them are more luscious. Besides they will continue to bear for three or four weeks before the vines die. On the subject of Peas, suffer us to say a word in recommendation of the Dwarf* Scimetar Peas. These are not very early — nor are they late : but they yield more abundantly than any other sort we have ever cultivated; and they are decidedly the richest peas grown. They are superior to the Marrowfat, and yield three times as much. Ordinarily, they grow but about three feet ih height, and the pods are formed cu- riously in thick clusters attlie top of the vines, and are gathered with great ease. For two years past, we have gathered quantities of these peas, when green and tender, at the right age for boiling, shelled them, and spread them out in the shade to dry — stirring them occasionally. In the fol- lowing winter we have caused them to be soaked till they swelled up to their summer size, and then had them cooked as usual. Thus we have green peas in winter, about as tender and luscious as you can have them from the vines iu tlie month of July. The luxuiy is worth the pains. — lb. SuGAK Beet for Milch Cows. — ^It may not be generally known, that by giving cows a peck of sugar beets twice a day, cut up with their hay, we will be enabled to get just as rich milk anil butter during the winter os in summer, when the pasture is at its best.

From our own experience, we have no doubt that this addition of beets to the ordinary feed of the cows, would make a weekly ditlerence of two pounds each in their product of butter. From the first of November to the first of May, there are twenty-six weeks. This number of weeks at two pounds additional butter, would give us fifty-two pounds for each new cow during the period named, or 520 pounds for the ten cows ; and if we set down the butter as being worth is. 'Sd. per pound, it will give us £32 10s. as the value of additional yield brought about by the feeding with the product of an acre in beets. But this is not all — the proprietor of the cows, in the spring, would have the gratification to know that he had treated his anmials well, and tlie satisfaction of seeing them in good condition. RiiuBAtiB. — This excellent plant which should have a place in every garden, is very easily raised, requiring nothing more than a rich loamy situation. It is ?.n orchard in miniature, the stems of its leaves aftbrd- ing a substance which is an c.xcellent substitute for apples, to make sauce or pies. The sauce made from it, is very wholesome and palatable, and will be a good preventive of bowel complaints. It is said that by stewing it with sugar and preparing it in the same manner as for the table, it may be bottled and corked up tight and preserved till winter. Indeed, we do not see why it may not be kept ag long as apple sauce, or any of the berries that are preserved in this way, without being bottled up. Some of our good housewives had better try the experiment. A HINT IN Housewifery. — In summer and autumn your soap grease is apt to accumulate beyond your immediate wants ; if put away it is apt to be devoured by maggots, and if made into soap, you may not have pine or other appropriate vessels enough to hold it. Having suffered loss from being placed in such circumstances, we were much gratified with a piece of mtelligence accidentally received, which re- lieved us from the disagreeable dilemma. By the boiling your soap widi salt, about a quart of the latter to three gallons of the former, you can separate lye and water enough to make the soap hard. After boiling half an h. ur, turn it out into a tub to cool. Cut the cake u which swims on the top into pieces, and having scraped off frotli and other impurities, melt again, (without the lye and water underneath, , of course) and pour into a box to cool. You may then cut it up into hars of proper dimenaions for drying. By adding a proportion of rosin, well pulverized, at the last boiilng, you will have yellow soap like that made for market.

A new way to fatten Turkioi.— The Plonghkeepsie Eagle teils a story > of a man in New-York, who shut a turkey up in a box four feet by two, and three feet high. and excluded light as much as possible.

Now we do not know whether the story is all a hoax or not; but this we do know that the more quiet you can keep animals while fattening the better they will fatten. If kept in the dark, their attention will be less called upon, and as darkness also in some measure induces sleep, the animal doses more, and there can be no doubt, that less food will be necesvsa- ry than when out in the open air roving about. OBSERVATIONS ON THE WEATHER, BY AN EMINENT PHILOSOPHER. When there has been no particular storm about the time of the Spring equinox — March 22 — if a storm arise from the east on or be- fore that day, or if a storm from any point of the conipass arise near a week after the equinox, then, in either of these cases, the succeeding summer is generally dry, four times in five. But if a storm arise from the S. W. or W. S. W. on or just before the Spring equinox, then the summer following is generally wet, five times in six. Mists. — A white mist in the evening over n meadow with a river, will be drawn up by the sun next morning, and the day will be bright. Five or six fogs successively drawn up portend rain. — Where the mist which hangs over low lands, draws towards high hills in the morning, and rolls up to the top, it will be fair ; but if the mist hangs upon the hills, and drags along the woods, there will be rain. Clouds. — Against much rain, the clouds increase very fast, especial- ly before thunder. — When they are formed like fleeces, but dense in the middle, and bright towards the edges, with the sky bright, they arc signs of a frost, with hail, snow, or rain. — If they form high in air, in thin white trains, like locks of wool, they portend wind, and proba- bly rain. — When a general cloudiness covers the sky, and small black fragments of clouds fly underneath, they are a sure sign of rain, and probably will bo lasting. Two currents of clouds, always portend rain, and in summer, thunder. Dew. — If the dew lies plentifiilly on the grass after a fair day it is a sign of another. If not, and there is no wind, rain must follow. — A red evening portends fine weather ; but if it spread too far upwards from the horizon in the evening, and especially morning, it foretells wind or rain, or both. — When the sky in rainy weather is tinged with sea green, the rain will increase; if with deep blue, it will be showery. Heavenly Bodies. — A haziness in the air which fades the sun's light, and makes the orb whitish, or ill-defined ; or, at night, if the moon and stars grow dim, and a ring encircles the former, rain will follow. — If the sun's rays appear like Moses' horns, if white at setting, or shorn of his rays, or goes down into a bank of clouds in the hori- zon, bad weather is to be expected. — If the moon looks pale and dim, we may expect rain ; if red, wind ; and if of her natural colour, with a clear sky, fair weather. — If the moon is rainy throughout, it will clear at the change, and perhaps the rain return a few days after. If fair throughout, and rain at the change, the fair weather w ill probably re- turn on the fourth or fifth day. WiND.--If the wind veers about, much rain is pretty sure. If in changing it follows the course of the sun, it brings fair weather ; the contrary, foul. — Whistling, or howling of the wind, is a sure sign of rain. «,^-*^ '"-"^tmmt^^ - i.fww fljifihut^ "■*^. \. .^ PROVINCIAL ALMANACK.

All aged and decrepid persons ought to eat often, and but a little at' a time ; because weak and wiisted bodies are to be restored little by little, and by moist and li(|[uid food rather than by solid, because moist and liquid lood doth nourish soonest, and digest easiest. Keep constantly to a plain diet 5 those enjoy most health and live longest that avoid cm iosity and variety of meats and drinks, which onl\' serve to entice to gluttony. The less food the sick person eats, the sooner he will recover; for it is a true saying, the more you fill your bodies, the more vou hurt them. All men find by experience, that in a morning beiore they have eaten, thev are light and pleasantly easy in their bodies ; but after they have indulged their appetites with plenty of food, they find themselves heavy and dull, and often sleepy, which sufhciently shows that those full meals are prejudicial to the welfare of the body. The most unhealthy are found among tliose who feed high upon the most delicious dainties, and drink nothing but the strongest and most spirituous liquors ; whereas others who want this delicate fare,i are seldom sick, unless tliey have such unsatiable appetites as to eati too much. To sup sparingly is mo.9t healthful, because of the experience of an infinite number of persons who have received the greatest benefit/ from light suppers. The stomach not being overburdened, the sleep] is more pleasant. From sparing suppers, the breeding of those hu- mours is prevented, which causes defluction, rheumatism, gouts, drop- sies, giddniess, and corruptions in the mouth from the scurvy. Many indispositions are cured by fasting, or a very spare diet. Two meals a-day is said to be sufficient for all persons afler fifty years of age, and all weak people ; (but it will be better to eat a little i||. at a time and oftener) the omitting of supper conduces much to the ^S^^, benefit of the weak and aged. Misers, wno eat and drink but little, always live long. Nothing is so great a friend to the mind of man as abatinence. It strengthens the memory, clears the apprehension, and sharpens the i! judgment, and, in a word, gives reason its full scope of acting ; and when reason has that, it is always a diligent and faithful handmaid to-i!% ;.- "f \ 1 ! 1 i' pRorrivciAt. ai-mA-NAck;- ii.itl: l';ibl>linp .' wlio Imtli wminils williotit c.insc; / win) liatn rcd- '"tiic cvi'^"' "ay- H(»loii!(i!i; uiiifli 'lucstion he ))i('Hoiitly an- w pvviM's — "tlicj who tarry loiii.^ ;il tin; wiiij ; they who f't'ck nt'ti-r inl'.cd wine."
