There will be two Eclipses of each of the great LuMirfARiEs in heaven this year. I. The first will be of the Sun, at the lime of new moon in March, a great and total eclipse, but invisible in North America by reason of the Moon's south latitude. II. The second will be a partial eclipse of the Moon, at the time of the full on Monday evening, April 9th visible. b. First contact of the Moon with the Earth's Penumbra 6 Eclipse begins 8 Middle. ••• 9 End of the Eclipse 11 Last contact of the Moon with the Earth's Penumbra ing of the 10th. Digits eclipsed 7° 14' on the Moon's south limb. III. The third will be a great eclipse of the Sun, on the aftCi- noon of Tuesday, Sept. 18th, at the time of New Moon, visible throughout all North America, Greenland, the Arctic, eastern part of the Pacific, and western part oi the Atlantic Oceans : central and annular in a path about two hundred miles broad, over the north-western or Wisconsin Territory, nd the States of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Virginia, Maryland and Delaware. At 'the time of this eclipse, the Moon will be at her apogee or great- est possible distance from the earth, causing a ring of the Sun to appear all around her dark body at the time of greatest obscura- tion at all places in the path of the annular eclipse. At Halifax, its phases will be as follows : m. 55 ^ 16 9j 30 a morn- Beginning Greatest obscuration. Sun sets Eclipse end ■ m. 51 ! Apparent time. 6 22J Digits eclipsed 10° 40' on the Sun's south limb IV. The fourth »^d last will be of the Moo>, at the timo of the full, in October ; invisible, as the moon will be below the Lhorizon. > # FARMER S ALMANACK. 18o< EXPLANATION OF THE CALENDAR PAGES. First Column, contains the days of the month. Second-, the days of the week. Third, Sundajs, Anniversaries, Weather, &c. Fourth, ilinini? of the Sun. Fifth, Setting of the Sun. Sixth, Sun's Declination taken from the Nautical Almanack, in hours and minutes, at mean noon. It denotes the apparent position of the true Sun with reference to the equator, and the true equinox, at the instant the Greenwich mean time clock, or chronometer,' indicates Oh. Om. Os., or when the hour angle of the true sun is equal to the equation of time. Seventh, Risinf; and Setting of the Moon. Eighth, Moon's Southing — when the moon comes to the Meridian of; any place, or twelve o'clock hour-line, she is then due south with| respect to that place, and this is termed the moon's southing. This column also shews the time of High Water at Parrsboro', Horton, Cornwallis Windsor, Newport, ^c. JVinth, Moon's place in the Signs. The meaning of these characters maybe learned from the " explanation of characters" on page 2. Tenth, Time of High Water at Halifax, of that tide which arrives when the moon is nearest to the meridian — the time of the tide which happens when the moon is fartherest from t'.e meridian maybe easily ascertained by the addition of half the difference of the times of high water on the preceeding and following days. The top of the columns shows the Moon's phases, or the times of New and Full Moon, and of the first and last quarter, or two quadratures with the Sun. To find the length of the day, add 12 hours to the time of the Sun's setting, and from the sum subtract the time of rising. The Farmer's Calendar is placed at the foot of the columns of e^ch month. All the calculations are in Apparent or Solar time ; that is the time shown by the Sun. If you should wish to set a clock which should| keep Mean time, observe when the Sun is on the Meridian by a noonj mark or Sun dial ; then if the Sun is slow, add the Equation, ifi fast, subtract it, from 12, o'clock and it gives the true clock time.l A table of the Equation of time , will be found on the next page after the Calendar. Thus you will find at .ipparent noon, June 1, the true time is 11 h. 67 m. 25 s. June 30, it is I2h, 3 m. 22 s. As for the Weather, we are still determined to have now and then a guess at it, hit or miss, our prognostics are founded on the wea- ther table published in the Almanack some years since, and we hope that at least, they will be found as often right as wrong ; at anyi rate, we shall endeavour not to confound winter snows with summer showers. > ♦ should: nooa ion, ifi time. ;e after 1, the • I then aji wea- ^e hope I at anyj with I Month.

It is a jmonth wiien one may often find the day terminating in a storm which seems to fill the skies, blocking up the roads, and piling the snow in heaps penetrating every window and door crevice and saluting us with its fine Isilvery shower ; the night setting in with it^ murky darkness, and com- Ibiaingwith the raging elements to envelope the world in a gloom which 'drives man and beast to the -helter of home. Thus ends the day and we' Tet ire to rest lulled by the music of the howling storm. The morning! comes and what a change ! the sun, as if nothing had happened, shows his; smiling face over the eastern hills, and his liglit sparkles from the thou- sand diamonds of the snow drifts. The custom Oi sending Valentines is not much practised here, but is carried to a great extent in England. Two hundred thousand beyond the usual daily average p^^ss through the two- penny post Ofiice in London, on St. Valentine's day. -V <>» Ill Month. MARCH, 31 days.

Farmer's during this month should be very attentive to their milch cows, and see that they are neitKer stinted nor over-fed. One that is well fed will keep her flesh and give twice as much milk as two that are put on short allowance. Parsnips, carrots, pumpkins, ground oats, and Indian meal, are capital articles for feeding cows which give milk, when thus fed they yield milk in great sjuantity. Let the milker be mild as a moon beam, in the mnr.ner of milking. If the work is performed with a hand as harsh as a hand saw, the cow will be as cross as a catamount ; but if a soft hand be gently applied, the animal receives pleasure, and al- lows the milk to flow plentifully. The earlier you can sow lettuce, early peas, and radishes the better. Set out cabbages for seed, selecting the best, and cabbage stumps, for early greens. ii Hiin mw— ),< IV Month. APRIL, MO days.

He holds in fee nhnple a certain part of j this planet, runnin;; froni tlie surface down to the centre, to;iether with the atmosiphere above it. The firmer i? indepeiulent of all but Providence— ;he calls no man master ; he is not only a friend of humanity, but he is'i 'kindly disposed towards brutes. An ox is to him in the light of a friend, ■ja cow is a benefactor, arul a calf is almost a child. He is clothed by, the sheep, and the cosset lamb i;! a foster brother of his children, who have a heavy day when their mute friend is sold to the butcher. In spring he covers with earth three or four kernels of maize, and in au- tumn he finds ears enough to furnish the materials for many loaves. He hides in the soil a seed, no bi^-jger than a large bed bug, and in a few weeks a vine appears with fieveral pumpkins attached to it, ^if the capacity of 4 gallons.

This latter as well as winter wheat, has been much neglected for some years, from an idea that that it is not a| safe crop, but try it again, be assured that the raising of wheat may be made very profitable. You will find much iiinoceut and profitable amuse- ment in your garden, and will please to plant bush and pole beans, havingi enriched the soil witfi manure. With regard to pole-beans you will do^s well to set the poles first, and then plant the beans round the poles. In the open ground, plant cucumbers, cabbages, caulillowers, late peas, early corn, squashes, melons, &c. Hoe and bush, such peas as have come forward, and weed all the plants which have made their appearance I suppose by this time' your garden looks neat and tidy ; no sticks, stones, last year's weeds, or rubbish of any kind lying about , and that your beds are a s smooth as a carpet, and laid out with taste and judgment. y I!

At an early hour we hear the merrj'^ ringing of the stone upon the steel,' as he is sharpening it. How beautiful now is the meadow — the orchard — the wheat field — and tl.e forest : How various and how brilliant the flowers ; how fragrant the air — how balmy, yet how healhful the breeze! The sultry season of hay making is to the farmer a season of sweat and toil, but not of repining hardship. The farmer is no*^ of that class called grumblers. He does not it is true rise with the •• first song of the lark," but what is quite as well, to the music of his own domestic stock, who by this time are assisted by their young broods. Who would lie snoring in bed and lose the beauties of a summer morning .? Up, up and you will wonder that you ever doze till sunrise. Away to the hills and see the mn get up and chase the mists before him, and hear the thousand throats pour forth their morning songs. ■ m In* V I ^$. VIII Month. AUGUST, 31 days.

The ripened grain waves over the fields in gentle andgra^'eful undulations, now ready for the sickle ; the reapers commence their early task , and in regular platoon pursue their Blow inarch from end to end of the field, each leaving his row of the yel- low grain laid handsomely on the ground behind him. How is it with the garden } I suppose you have had plenty of cherries, strawberries, &c. in their season and that your peach trees have now the inviting appearance of rich loads of ripening fruit Your flowering plants, 1 suppose, have long delighted you with their fragrance and beauty, and you have your care and attention well repaid. Continue to gather the best specimens of seeds to propogate from, ind be careful not to let any weeds ripen their seeds. Put on a good stout pair of leathern gloves, and declare a war uf exter- mination against the thistles in and about youi premises, before the seeds become ripe.

The corn, load afier load, is brought from (he fields, and piled on the ■grass by the bam, to be husked out these fine evenings by moonlight , isomelimes our farmers make a regular husking frolic of it, by inviting the ineighboursto r.saist in the labour, or rather the sport, and the whole crop' ^ is thus disposed of in a single evening. This is perhaps the best way, pro-' !vided you conduct it on the temperance plan, as there is then no danger of injury to the grain by svv-ealing in the heap. If you pans along the sling iaod toddy every 15 or 20 minutes, and guzzle till you are all so boozy that f'you cannot te.'! n white ear from a red one, you will waste more by it, than Y/ould be lost by letting it moulder in the heap a day or two longer.

Protect your cellar with a Farmer'' s Bank, and [then, if you work it right, you will not be obliged to hire money from |Other b.inks. If possible, let water be brought into your cattle yard, to that its tenants may not be compelled these cold mornings to ramble over ,frozen fields, or run the gauntlet along slippery liighways, harassed by men, doi.>s, and t^leighs, undergoing as many perils as Bunyan in his " Pil- grim'jj Progress." Winter squashes, cabbages, &ic. s^lioidd now be brought from the garden and prescved for winter. Siilf, heavy soil should be thrown up in trenches. Trim up, look about jou, and see that all is neat, tidy and well prepared for winter. See that your house is tight, rnenJ (Joneep. b. v. Mary|'' '^^ 'wM.
