Seed Corn. — The following' method of preparing seed corn has been practised with great success, in preventing the ravages of the wire-worm or grub, and of birds : — To three pecks of seed corn put a pound and a half of copperas ; let the water be about blood warm ; let the corn be soaked in tiie copperas water about forty-eight hours before planting. As yon use out the corn for planting, add copperas, water, and corn, in tiie same propor* tion. Ther0 is not the least danger from making the copperas water too strong. Removing Scions. — The best method of removing scions of fruit-trees from a distance is, to stick their hmcr ends into a tur- nip or potatoe, and then pack them in moss or hay ; in this way they may be sent from England to America. On their arrival, they should he half or three quarters buried in moderate moist soil in the shade, and kept there till the season of grafting. A '^reat means of success in performing the latter oppcration, is to have the stock advanced somewhat beyond the sicon: another is to put a hood of paper over the graft, to guard it from the vicis- situdes of the atmosphere, and in some degree to increase the temperature. In some nurseries, newly-grafted dwarfs are earthed up to the top of the ball of clay, and the scion slightly protected by a little dry litter, fronds of tir-tree, or af fern. Bees. — The cruel system of smothering Bees may now be to^ tally dispensed with by a plan recently adopted with complete success, called " Drivhi^," and which is easily accomplished. At dusk, place a metal pot near where the old hive stands ; have a new hive prepared, with cross sticks, with cream and sugar besmeared inside ; invert the old hive into the pot, and quickly place the new one over it ; tie a cloth round the meeting of botii hives, so as prevent any of the Bees escaping; then keep strik- ing the bottom of the metal pot, with an iron instrument, and in less than ten minutes all the bees will be driven by the sound from the old to the new hive ; then untie the cloth and lift the. new hive to the place where the old one stood, at the same time^ quickly covering the honey hive with a white cloth to prevent any of the bees returning to it. In the morning, lift a corner of the cloth so as to make a small aperture to let out any of the bees that should remain, and by striking the pot as before, they will instantly depart, and join their companions in the new set* tiemcnt. It may be necessary to f^ed the bees well for a few days with sugar and they will proceed to work immediately after. In the departure of Calvados, South America, they have a method of managing their Bees, which is worth the attention of ipiariaus, ia coontries where the hives are trfiasported from ^^ V V « j I ilf 28 - place to place for change of food. In one half of this depart' ment, called the Bocngo, large tracts of high hinds are covered witii buck-wheat, and there the Bees produce excellent wax, but bad honey, In another part of the district, in the plain, where kaint-foin is extensively cultivated, tlie honey is delicious, but the wax is bad, and difficult to bleach. It is the custom of the cultivators of the Bocago, as soon as the saint-foin begins to flower, to send their hives down to the plains, and to lengthen them by means of an empty hive, to which the Bess are allowed access, by the removal of the top of the old hive. This opera- tion they call catotler. As soon as the saint-foin ceases to pro- duce blossoms, they take their hives home, separate the new hives from the old ones, and drive the Bees out of the former into the latter ; an operation which is easily performed, by inverting the one under the other. By this means they effectually sepa- rate the honey-comb prepared from the saint-foin from that ex- tra ted from the buck-wheat, and make use of either according to their convenience. The usual practice Is to leave the honey from the buck-wiieat for the winter provision of the bees. To Butler Makers. — Few articles of living are more indispen- sably necessary in a family, than good butter ; and few that are more nauseous and unhealthy than bad butter and a very great proportion of the butter brought to market is bad. And much that is called good, is very bad when compared with that which is really good. This must, in a great degree, be owing to a want of knowledge in those who make it. If those who keep cows would adopt the following method of making butter, they would have more and better butter than they can have in any other way. Let your milk pails, pa^s, and churn, be always clean and sweet; and let the milk you keep over night, be churned with what you milk in the morning wliile the latter is warm. In this way your butter will be sweet; and if you work out the butter milk and salt it well, it will be solid and good, aad command the highest price in market. Many persons while churning are in a habit of putting water into the chum, and also and { of washing their butter witli water ; this is a bad practice, and food should be avoided by all who wish to have their butter remaia sume sweet. To pickle Beef, Pork, &p. — ^To four gallons of water, add one pound and a half of Muscovado sugar, two ounces of saltpetre, and six pounds of bay or common salt. Put the whole into clean pot or kettle, and let it boil, being careful to take of all th scum as it rises.— VVhen there is no squm, take liqi^or off, and lei it stand till cold ; having put the meat you wish to preserve int the vessel you intend to keep it in, pour in the liquor till th meat is quite covered, in which coudhion it must be kept. Jf you intend to preserve your meat a considerablQ time^ il w^l agi bol Th pai ten firs the / Stat witl grai C old bus] mov dest 2 salt, pact T a tot as th diani linen a ba vent and the imm Ci cow and % quan Pr orti ix- ix Our ts ap ffect pril rougl larei ■,:^i ^^ \ I alf of this departi hinds are covered excellent wax, but n the plain, where y is delicious, but the custom of the lint-foin begins to IS, and to lengthen B Bess are allowed hive.

And much red with that which rec, be owing to a If those who keep naking butter, they ley can have in any I churn, be always eep over night, be ig while the latter is et; and if you work solid and good, and Hany persons while atheclnun, and also a bad |>ractice, and] I their butter remal 18 of water, add on( > ounces of saltpetrej utthe whole into efnl to take of all th( ike liquor off, and lei wish to preserve int< in the liquor till th< must be kept. considerablQ tiine^ m J '^j.' 29 will be necessary once in two months, to boil tlie pickte oyei>- again, clearing off the scum that rises, and putting in, when boiling, two ounces of sugar, and half a pound of common salt. Thus the pickle will hold good for twelve months. It is incom- parable for curing hams, neat's tongues, or beef which you in- tend to dry ; observing, when you take them out of the pickle, first to clean and dry them, put them in paper bags, and han^ them in a dry, warm place. Rural Economy. — An experienced farmer of the Netherlands states, that an ounce of saltpetre dissolved in a pint of water with an ounce of (lour of sulphur, and scattered upon grain in a granary, is an infaliable means of preventing it from spoiling. Calerpiltars in Gooseberry and Currant Bushes. — ^If a piece of old woollen-cloth is hung in the middle of Currant or Gooseberry bushes, all the Caterpillars will go into it-— and by frequent re- movals, and immersion into scalding water all may be gradually destroyed. lb keep Pork fresh. — Take out the bones, and without any Salt, cover the pieces with Spanish brown (or red ochre,) then pack them in bags. Pork tlius packed will keep sweet a year. To relieve Callle that are choaked orhoven by Clover. — Provide a tough piece of grape vine, about a yard and a half long and as thick as a man's finger, with a knob from one to two inches diameter at one end. Surround this knob with a piece of linen or leather, which when stuffed with wool or tow, will make a ball of three inches diameter ; and secure it well, so as to pre- vent its slipping over the knob ; roll it in soft soap or grease, and having secured the creature, and holding its tongue, thrust the ball down its throat quite into the stomach, and it will be immediately relieved. Cows — Keep no more cows than you can keep well. One cow well fed will give as much milk as two treated indifierently, . nd produce more butter. Sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkins, nd ground oats, are unquestionably among the best aiticles of ' food for milch cattle. These cause the milk and butter to as- ume a fine flavor and a rich colour, and at the-samc time the- [uantity and-quality are greatly increased. Preservation of the Apple Tree. — Take nearly the same pro- lortions ; of lime, three pounds — soap, one pound — cow-dung, ix— ashes, one— salt, one — brimstone, a quarter of a pound— ix tliem into a soft mortar. Rub this composition freely over Our trees with a mop. Then the wood lice will die, the tree hold, ts apples, and the woodpecker will not touch it. The powerful! ffects of this composition will soon be visible. The m inth of pril is the best time to try it. It will be well to scrape off the ougli bark of the tree, before the compnsiiiun is applied, taking.< are not to wound it. Cv2 i^. m I ^ 'I % t w .■i 30 Fences. — ^^Vhile repairing your fences, remember that a fenec "wen made will stand muc)i longer than that which is poorly made. AVhile you drive your business before you, and do your work well, all will be easy ; but suil'er it to lag or slight it, and soon it becomes a grievous burden. Cctlerpittars. — Destroy utterly every caterpillar— leave no nest ondemol'ished on 3'uur fruil tress. This may be done by burning brimstone under their nests — by sprinkling ashes or fine sand on them aud the limbs where they are, when wet— or by putting a mop or wisp of tow on a pole, and brushing their nests with brine. Cutlnig of Bushes. — We see, with regret, pastures in many parts of our land overspread n ith a noxious growth of a shrub' bery and weeds, which destroy much of the feed. That all ve- getables may be subdued by repeatedly cutting them, is a posi- tion which does not rest on mere theory ; more than twenty years' experience lias removed every doubt from my mind. — The whole sHccetis of this business di'pends on cutting them at a proper season. If we would destroy the plant, and prevent it» future growth, we must cut it when the root is most exhausted.— This is jusr before the fruit ripens. They should always be cut after the blossoming, and just before the seed is ripe enough to vegetate. Cider. — Apples which fall early should be gathered and madel into cider ior immediate ose, and for vinegar. Suffer the fulll apples to hang on tlie trees till ripe, then gather them and keep them housed till ihey are mellow They should be sorted be fore they are ground, and all di> t and rotten apples removed.— | Let the mill, press, and vats, barrel?, Ike. be clean and sweet. — The juice should stand in the puinace twelve hours at least, which will give ti;e cider a higher colour and render it richer.

Cure for Bwrns.— Several very bad and dangerons burns havi recently been cured with a soap or ointment, composed of equa parts of oiive oil and lime water, to which a little axunge was ad ded, to give it cons; (ence.

Previous to every new application, (once in six hours) the wound was cleansed with warm milk and water. We are , inclined to think that Castile soap suds, would answer better as a cleanser. To take out grease from a carpet or any other woolen cloth. — Dis- solve a piece of pearl ash, of the size of a pea, in half a tea cup of warm weter, or a piece twice the size, in a full tea cup. Pour some of the solution on a grease spot, and continue to rub it hard with a clean brush or woolen cloth, until it is nearly dry, and your carpet or garment will be as- clean a3 ever. Cure for the Piles.— Take a piece of sheet lead, such as com- monly comes in tea chests, upon the inside of which you are ta put hog's lard, and with a leaden weight rub with this salve for a few times, anoint the part alfected, which in a short time will re- move, what to those who are in like manner troubled, is a desi« derutum, devoutly to be wished. To destroy Cockroaches spirits of Turpentine is found to be an effectual remedy against tlie depredations of Cockroaches.^ Apply it with a feather w'here they take shelter, and tJiey will soon leave the room. Cure for the Cholera Jl/ortus.— Half a pint of Corn roasted al- most black, grind it fine, put it in a clean tin vessel, and pour o- ver it a quart of boiling water, simmer it ten minutes, strain it and add a little sugar ; give three table spoons full every quarter oi' an hour ; the stomach will contain it in most cases, after the second time given. When the sickness of the stomach has sub- sided, give a dose of physic that is least nauseating to the patient, two tea spoons full of Rhubarb powders, Epsom salts, or cream of Tartar. This simple Indian remedy, if taken at the commencement of the complaint, will effect a cure. Warts — Away with the idea, ye sons and daughters of reflec- tion, tliat charms and witchcrafts are necessary to remove your warts ; rub them with spirits of turpentne and they will soon les- sen — gradually decrease— j'ca, vanish forever. To destroy l\ats and Mice. — Take equal quantities of unslacked Kme and powdered oatmeal ; mix them by stiring, without ad- ding any liquid, and put a small quantity in a place infested by rats and mice, with a dish of water near. It is said that they will swallow tin? preparation, become thirsty, and the water whicb they di ink will swell the lime and destroy them on the spot. Iloncy a cure for the Gravel. — A number of years ago, says a correspondent, I was much afflicted with the gravel, and twice in serious danger, fiom small stones lodging in the passage. I met with a gentlemait who had been in my situation and got rid of that disorder by sweetening his tea with half honey and half su- gar. I adopted bis remedy and found it cCcutual. After b' in^ I ■11 Si r f ■^^ ■if .!! V : * , i 32 fuTiy cl«ar of my disease for about ten years, I decliucd taking honey, and in about three months I had a violent fit of my old complaint. I then renewed my practice of taking honey in my tea, and am now more than three score, and have not for the last twenty-seven years, had the smallest symptoms of the gravel. I have recommended my pre4icription to many of my acquaintance, and have never known it to fail. To cure saltrhum, chapped hands, burns, iic. — Take one part bees wax, three parts tallow, two of sweet oil, and one of Castiel soap ; simmer them together, and when cool it will constitute a salve the efficacy of which has been repeatedly tested within our own observation. Ringworms.— A salve made of hard soap (called by some rosin soap) and ginger, rubbed en ringworms, will cure them. VARIETIES. Anecdote.— While the Edystone light-house was erecting, a French privateer took the men upon^he rock, together with their tools, and carried them to France ; and the captain was in expec- tation of a reward for the achievement. While the captives lay in prison, the transaction reached the ears of Louis XIV— he immediately ordered them to be released, and the captors put in their places ; declaring, that ' though he was at war with Eng- land, he was not so with all mankind.' He directed the men to be sent back to their work with presents ; observing, ' that the Edystone light-house was so situated as to be of equal service to nil nations having occasion to navigate the Channel between Eng- land and France.' Anecdote of Moreau. — Moreau no doubt gave great offence to the revengeful Corsican, when, speaking of the Tree of Liberty, he said, there was nothing left of it but 7 Vcorce, the baik. (Lc Corse, the Corsican.) Eccentric Barber. — An eccentric barbet some years ago opened a shop under the walls of the King's Bench Prison. The win- .dows being broken when he entered it, he mended them witli paper, on which appeared, • Shnve for a penny,'' with the usual invitation to customers ; and over the door was scrawled these lines :— Here lives Jemmy Wright, Shaves as well as any man in l^ngland-, Almost — not quite. Foote (who loved any thing eccentric) saw these inscriptions, and hoping to extract some wit from the author, whom he justly concluded to be an^ odd character, he pulled off his hat, and thrusting his head ihrough a paper pane into the shop, called out,^ I, I decliucd taking olent fit of my old aking honey in my lave not for the last IS of the gravel.

A Waggoner and Atlornies.'— Two country nttornies, overtaking a waggoner on the road, and thinking to be witty upon him, asked why his fore horse was so fut, and the rest so lean ? The waggoner knowing them answered, " that his fore horst was a lawijer, and the rest were his clients." Drawing the long boiv. — Some people are wonderfully fond of the hyperbole, and especially when by the use of this figure they can aggrandize the place of their birlii ; my friend Tom Startle is of this disposition, and generally takes care to let every body know it. 1 rem&mbcr Tom in a company once took an opportu- nity to go off upon the fertility of his county, and told tlie gen- tlemen, that i\w turnips in that place were so much bigger than the sheep, that they frequently cat a liole in them, and buried themselves tiiere from the cold. * That I know to be true, (say* a gentleman present), for 1 was once at dmner upon a boiled leg of mutton and turnips in your very parish ; aud from the very first turnip I cut, out jumped a sheep.' QUINN AND FOOTE. As Quinn and Foote one day walk'd out To view the country round, In merry mood they chatting stood, Hard by the village pound. Footc from liis poke a shilling took^ And said, ' I'll bet a penny, In a short space, within this place, I'll make this piece a guinea.' Upon the ground, within the pound, The shilling soon was thrown : ' Behold,' said Foote, ' the thing's made out, For there is one pound oue.' • I wonder not,' says Quinn, ' that thought Should in )'our head be found. Since that's the way your debts to pay, One shillhig in the pound.'

A crab there was, a dashing youns; blade, And he was in love with a lobster maid ; ' But the lobser maid was a terrible prudo. And she told her mnmma that the crab was rude- Said her dear mamma, " Prny what did he do? Did be give you a kiss or a billet doux / '* Oh ! no," said she, with a toss of her head, " But he ogles me so — 'tis so shocking ill-bred, That 1 vow, if he still persists in his suit, I'll box the ears of the impudent brute." But an oyster dandy saw the maid — "Oh! split me," said he, ''miss, if am afraidl" So tighter he braced his corset shell, And he struted away with a Broadway swell; And he told the maid, as he twiri'd his seal. He'd "die at her (eet, if a dandy could kneel." " Oh ! sir, said she, " since that can't be. You know you can hang yourself on a tree !" And the oyster rav'd — " But no," said she, " You never shall die of scorn from me." So she gave him her ruby red hand to kiss^ And he felt like a fish in a sea of bliss ; But the crab, he cock'd his hat in their faces, And challenged the oyster to fight at two paces. The ground was mark'd, and they took their staled, And a barnacle gave the word of command. They took their aim, and the oyster fell! But alas ! the worst of the tale is to tell : For while he lay welt'ring in his shell, A giddy young muscle that pass'd that way^ And saw the end of the fatal affray, Declar'd that the lobster's love was a sham, For he'd just seen her married that morn to a claqi; COMPANY AND CHEERFULNESS Are necessary and of use; but a constan course of mirth beirays such a levity gf inia<)> that your pres«ac« will never be Ueeirfd f'i „■ .1 W W i bas a thoucand vir<| that noble virtue, | en for want of piac- rd, which cuts both! ■son, do the greatett| W lilt to divert others ^bose regard ceanei the Instant the laugff is over, and should your wit offend you may be assured of an >nemy.

FAITHLESS NELLY GRAY : A PATHETIC BALLAO), Ben Battle was a soldier bold, And used to war's alarms ; But a cannon-ball took off his legs, So he laid down his arras .' Now as they bore him off the field, Said he, ' Let others shoot, For here I leave my second leg. And the ' Forty-second Foot." The army-surgeons made him limbs; Said he, ♦ They're only pegs ; But there's as wooden members quite As represent my legs !' Now Ben he loved a pretty maid, Her name was Nelly Gray ; So he went to pay her his devours, When he'd devour'd his pay ! But when he call'd on Nelly Gray, She made him quite a scoff; And when she saw his wooden legs, Began to take them off! O Nelly Gray ! O Nelly Gray ! Is this your love so warm ? The love that loves a scarlet coat Should be more uniform.' Said she, ' I loved a soldier once. For he was blithe and brave ; But I will never have a man With both legs in the grave !
