I arn-,htippy again to ink= pair that the citizens of Pittsburgh take a deea• interest in our proceedings, The intelligent and warthy , editots of the different journals have genet: . ously, and I must :lay nobly tendered-their assist ance through'the,colanans of their excellent Tisperif —mad I; as a.titember of ',the, Society, feel grate ful tii them faitheir kind o ffer s , of assistance: Mfell,"my fellow citizens:, as Said in the cam mencetnent have.met to,discuss the - utilil y of- - introducing . inoprovement into • 'the „various branchei'orragricultnre.in this sectioil of the country..., Trust say.t.hat-it is a subject - of great import-auks:l- fact it is a subject which the citi. pits -of Allegheny county ought to have investi• gated long ago. Alleghehy county is -placed in such apcisition as to be looked up to as a Vattern to the rest of the - counties lyingwest of theAlle gheniesßat - I amoriy . to say, that With regard . to her :A -s giicuittiral improiements, she has set them but a poor pattern, as yet. 13ut the time,l 'think, has .m length arrived for her to arouse from her lethargy:, and put forth her full powers of im provement, and dins . "set that glorious example which'-ber....froud position •deinands. -Sha has every advantage and resource within herself to As regards the farms in-this county, yoillare reH aware, my dear sirs, that a , great portion or them have depreciated at least- SO per cent in their fertility anC;productiveness. That is from -the time they were first opened out until- the pre sent time, and it sortie remedy is not applied they will gri - on depreciating until they"re„ completely worn- out. So far there has been a perfect soil. destroying system carried on by many. Does not behoove us then, dear sirs, to Mouse ourselves to improvement so. as, to endeavor to find some means.to prevent - that detneCiatiOn 'which I have• sExiken_ of, • =I-'must say,that • there is not one of you, in riot there is not a fanner :throughout our' county, lnithasit in his power to make improrie. Merit or go into a. system of improvement, with out auradditional expenses upon himself. All he Vas todb is to make the effort with spirit and • energy, and. he will eventually,succeed. A farmer, to becotne, prosperous in oar county must lay down some system of improvement according to the means he has of giving vigor•and force -to i:. He must not despair if he it not successful in his first efforts 'perseverance will catty him through, and make him successful in the end. I have Often : remarked that when a young farmer • has set-out in•life with a, full determination to persevere - and • become independent, 'that he his eventually:done ' so in a great measure r —and the reason:of bis nue cess tytu3 because he had laid a system—and gen_ . erally a sound one—and has sought information , throttfiti - every'. avenue by which it could be oh-. tained,' for, the...purpose of carrying his system out. • rlf your inquire, for insiance,anaong this class of frinriers,• you will find-that almost every one of 2 them - are subscribets to some of:the excellent ag. licultinal - .works Which 'nre published in various - pins' ofour_ country, and through that Bourne they gain ',:a great deal of knowledge and informa tion,,which, added to their practical experiments, is in is great measure the cause,or their success. r I am' sorry to -say that - inany of our farmers are bitterly _o . pposed to book farming, and condemn it altogether. I for one will not agree with them. Rot I consider that the true science of agriculture . cannot exist or,be carried on without scientific agricultinal publications. They are just as ne. cessary to Make a professional farmer, as medical -.works ovlavv books are to make a doetor or a lawyer. -They- ari a source - thrOugh which a. farmerwill gain a great deal of ,information and kno.wleilget he Will see larits of improvement-in theni.thathe never dreamed of.

I think it has . been fully proven , by icientfiic 'experiments, that where manure is expoied to the actionof the atmospheric air, it loses' its• productive qualities in the gases which - are all extracted by , exposure. What benefit then can. our fanners expect to derive from manure that bag been 'exposed some three, four or five months to all the lieaq rains snows and frosts of winter. -Manure, .to bi- beneficially applied, -ought to be ploughed under as soon as it is hauled from the ern yard, when it still contains its mois ture and its productive - qualities. , If time would admit, Vc.ould advance a number of reasons against this injudicious course. .1 am anxious to see it -rectified:. • For the Morning - Post. • will'notintruda - upon your time much longer: I Will touch alightlY.,upen 'aur.'present breed of stock, andtive you• my.. humble Niewit'of it, and' then lem done: For instance; to commence, our breed_Of horses Witt come first upon the; list.

How few of our farmers, with the breed of horses they, have at present, could go into a system of deep - tillage, without putting three horses to theit - ploughs._ ' As regards our stock of milch cows, I believe ; with good management and proper care we can improve our common_ stock to be neatly as g ood, if not:Ainil ,to any "of the imported breeds: „I have seen a number in this section of the country-' that have been bred from imported breeds.

I Will not say anything further upon stockat pres- I ant. I have merely given you a few of my views, and I will, admit that I may be in error as regards some .rif them. Ido not presume, gentlemen, to be a scientific or practical farmer. I could proba bly give you a better ides of steam boating than of farming. SOAR MGR 1 SOAR.

A Wild Woman. [Farm the Victoria (Teras)Achocatel . We know not but our reputatiowfor veracity 'may suffer by the following statement; but as we have been laying off for the last two years to give it, we think there is no use of waiting any longer. It will require some credulity to believe the story; - but we can assume the reader that what we shall State could be established by the testimony of some of the. oldest and most respectable citizens of our neighboring county of Jackson. . For the fast tenyears there has lived and inhab ited the thickets of the Navidad bottoms in Jacks son County,, an - animal universally believed to be a womant and though diliigent search has frequents ly been made, not a living soul has ever been able to see it; though on one occasion, several years ago, a party driving cows through the bottom, came so close upon its camp or den, as to compel it to dropa kind of 4asket or trunk, which upon examination, was found to be a perfect curiosity containing a most astonishing variety of little trin kets, sUch as pins, needles, knives, brushes, and several articles, whose uses were entirely unknown and all alike most ingenious and exquisite Ifvork manship, and also a sir dl pocket Bible, with "New- York" written hi it in a beautiful small handwriting, together with two guns, one of which it had stocked.:,having stolen an old gun barrel from; the settlements. The principal reason for believeing it to be a woman, arises from its track, which has often been seen, and_ which resembles exactly that of a small and.delicate female. It frequently visits the neigh boring houses of nights for the purpose of picking up such articles as it can lay its hands on—cloth ing particulatiy, whiCh it is supposed, from the quantity missing from time to time,it has enough to set up a respectable millinary-shop and cloth ing store. • About a year ago, it went into the house of Sam A. Rogers, when be was absent, opened his medi cine chest, took a portion of all the medicines .in it,'.carefully- putting back the, stoppers, and 'com• milting no other damoge beside that of taking see. oral articles of clothing, which, after going to the edge'of the bottom, it appears to have sorted out —andleft such articles hanging upon a atick ale it did not seem to require. It also came to Mr. Rogers' place vcently, 'and brought back a wood. en bowl taken about a year since, and a trace chain -that bad been missing for eight years.— These are but a tithe of the many eccentricties of the man, woman, or animal; but they serve as a speciinen. So sure are the people on the Navidad, that it is a wild huntan being, that we understand a re ward of forty coWif and calves has been offered to any one who-would capture it. It is supposed by some that - there was once a man and woman, but that the man had died. - Ilow true this conjecture is, we cannotsay; but there can hardly be adoubt but a wild man or woman has inhabited the Nevi dad Mustang bottoms, near Tesanahr many years. It cannot be allegro. male or female,.because the track forbids tlie conclusion. We, ineline to think it a Mexican woman. • -'• CerrsoanrA:TENT—We yeetenini.saw-i - Tent built for one of the messes in AnkrinitalCompany.

The offorts of the pensioned presses of this city to place us in a false position, by coining their counterfeit sentiments, and insisting that xe have uttered them, is so notorious,- that any attempt of ours to further expose the scoundrels would be a work of supereiogation. The Gazette, of yester day has an article of this character. We will not undertake the task of unraveling the sophistries of the Editor, or exposing his his falsehoods, for the public are tired of the subje:t. The difference between Deacon White and ourself is simply this , he is the tool of capital; and we are the 'fiend of labor. He lies most basely when he says we wish to array the workingman against his employ. er, and excite a morbid and unhappy feeling among men. We wish no such thing. We wish to see capital just to labor, and then weknow that labor will be conciliatory to capital. The editor ac knowledges that "there are %stances of oppression among capitalists." This acknowledgment is all that we want from him, for against this only are we antagonistical. The Ten Hour Law, Which was intended for the protection of the laboring masses, was evaded in its spirit by some capitals ists; and when the operatives would not succumb, the factories were closed. We ask the apologist of eapital, this Editor of the Gazette, by whom then was excited morbid and unhappy feelings? Messrs. Myers, Hunter and Veogtly, in obedience to the spirit of a most glorious and humane law, opened their cotton mill, and run it successfully. They were just to later, and labor was just and concili atory towards them. The free and unbought pres. ses of the country have heralded their praise, and the unanimous resolutions of public meetings of operatives have covered them with benedictions.— But was there ever one line of approval in the Pittsburgh Gazette? If there was, we have never seen it. Pittsburgh was made what she is by labor. It was the sturdy arms of her mechanics and working men, that have built up ber greatness. They have created all her capital, and given to her a world• wide reputation. Now, all that we want is to see those industrious artisans edequately rewarded. Capital must progress, or it perishes; and in its progress it should be just and conciliatory to the men who have made it. Justice demands that the hours of toil should be limited. Justice says Ten Hours are much is human bones and muscles ought to endure in this age of mechanical triumph. Justice declares that those men and those presses who have apposed the Ten Hour System, are not the friends of the children of toil, and we say so also. For speaking the truth we are made the teget of the servile creatures who fawn upon cap ital, that thrift may follow We defy them, and despise them all. If we understand the Post aright, it makes capital and labor antagonistical—capital is an oppressor— labor is the oppressed object. It therefore arrays labor against capital—the working man against his einpleyer. It affects to despise capital, and denoun ces capitalists. It excites a morbid and unhappy fi cling among men, whose interests instead of being dissimilar, are in a great measure identical. (Gazette. We could feel in our heart some sort of charity for the editor of the Gazette, if we entertained a suspicion that he really believes what he states in the extract we have quoted. Ho professes to have read our paper, and we dare say he has studied eve ry line growing out of the controversy relating to the Ten Hour Law. Has he not noticed that we have repeatedly declared that there was no natural antagonism existing between Capital and Labor. If there is a single question in political economy upon which we have come to a fixed and determined con clusion, it is this, that the interests of Labor and Capital are the same. To prove that we have fre quently declared such an opinion, we quote below a few extracts from our files: From the Post of February 6 " If ever human labor and machinery wore an tagonistical, they have now ceased to be. But for this reason, should machinery be cast aside, and mankind go back to the primitive mode of labor? No ; for if God did not intend the labor of machi nery to be a benefit to His people, He would have withheld the knowledge of it from them." From the Post of February 13 " We have always been of the opinion, that Capi• tal and Libor were identical. Bad men only will attempt to array the one against the other. They only become antagonists, when Capital attempts to oppress Labor. In the hands of good men, Capital can be applied to noble and useful purposes. • • Here is a union (li3 the Star Factory,) of Capital and Labor, which works as harmonious and perfect as a piece of machinery. In many of the large estab lishments of this city, the best possible feeling ex ists between the employers and the employed." From the Post of February 24 " We always believed, and still believe, that the rights and interests of Labor are harmonious and identical with the rights and interests of Capital, when viewed in the proper spirit." In addition to these, we appeal to every candid reader, whether the whole tenor of every article that has appeared in the editorial columns of the Post, has not recognized the unity of the two great elements—Labor and Capital P It is to us evident, that the editor of the Gazette wilfully and maliciously misrepresents us. It is pain ful to us to think, that in discussions of important political questions; we are bound to defend ourself against the smelts of the , editor of the Gazette; for though the Editor has nocharacter for iotegrity,_ this Soiximunity 2 ; where' he is known, he is at the head.azif a tialier ioasesaing mach4nrioeoce here and ahroad. • = - '• Two of tl)e Pittoburgh t to tom( Journal.antl-the,Post—arp eogago in totivo e pAyjdNIALO"..., to„ sOottakic nod Ot.*ipli'Vt*atti4 egithets4re. brio dr iCtrettCobantliOteo. :11VtoKilttiejig4tib edm " fr. ,Wwiindertsie - ao the PiiiehOghetellihe tiieh,iitihfinelhifitr I)(4We-deeda:To jautistk - (Louisville Courier., OCT You need not make the matter worse than it reallyisjmy good fellow.: It was a " Cottorilcar,”- .and nothing more. r„ We;tdvocated - •the Ten Hour mwiiinified by the leghilature for the"pretection” of Labor—the whig editors opposed it.

The only approximation to its cause, that we can come to is, that he sometimes writes with his green spectacles on, and sometimes with them off. The Deacon is an oddity in religion, morals, metaphysics, politcal economy and the art of pill making. The People's Protest. We have on hand papers with several hundred ad ditional names, protesting against the attem'ts of a few individdals to injure the Morning Pbst, on ac. count of our advocacy of the Ten Hour Law and the Rights of Labor. Wo designed publishing these names in this morning's paper ; but . opon reflection, we conceive that there is no necessity for so doing. A majority of those who signed the " certificate of character " have informed us that that their names were obtained to that paper, in consequence of false representations having been made by J. K. Moore head as to its contents and character. In this "cot ton war,, " we have been sustained—gloriously sus tained—by the pure and incorruptible democracy, and by honest men of all parties. The villainous at tempts to break us down have only covered their authors with disgrace and contempt. LOCAL MATTERS. REVESEND CIIMILCI AVERY:A ReMCllideente A friend has furnished us with the Report of the Select Committee appointed to visit the mann factoring districts of the Commonwealth, for the purpose of investigating the subject of the em ployment of children in manufactories. It was read in the Senate, February 7, MS. If we recollect aright, this Commttee hrs appointed on motion of Mr. Darragh. We wilt only given small portion of the Report. To the Rev. Charles Avery the following - questions were put, to which we Stipend his answers it Question—ls the labor for children excessive ? Answer—Far from it; it approaches nearer to amusement. Question—Do they appear tired when they leave work, or complain of pain from over work Answer-1 have heard of no complaint whatever, and am certain there ii no canoe. • , . _ Question—la any attention paid to theii education or morale ? Answer—This is under the control of parents; who can send their children to school wherever they please, free of expense. We do what we can to inculcate the morality of the Gospel ; many attend our Sabbath Schools. '' Question—Are children more - 11 - Willy when they first come to the factory than after they have been in the mill some timer State any knowledge you . May have of the effect or the work of children in the factory on their health Answer —I know'or no difference is the health of the children., Question—Whn effect has the Compromise Act of 1833, regulating the Tariff, upon the interest of the manufacturers I Answer—The present policy of the General Gov ernment is fatal to the manufacturintsystent, Comment is hardly necessary. We must remark; however, that these answers were given in all lied oneness. The Punch style wss not in vogue among literary men at the date or this report; therefore, the Rev. gentleman could not have meant to inflict sarcasm on the Legislature. In regard to the fatal consequences attending the manufacturing system of the State, alter the adop tion of Mr. Clay's Compromise, we will simply say that there is a rumor in this vicinity, that the share of profits awarded to Mr. Avery, at the time of the withdrawal-o( Mr. Arbuckle, is set down as amount ing to one hundred and twenty thoutanddollars. We judge that the Eagle Mill owners were not destroy ed by that or any other Tea. Dar Let Working Men and Working Women and girls remember that Gr.o. DAME, the Whig Sena tor, the Jovrisisz and the Gsztrzr., Whig organs, have declared their hostility to the Ten Hour Law. In justice to Swartzwelder we will say that we believe him to be a friend of the measure—but he is not the Whig party. We wish he was, for he is honest and conscientious. There is no longer any mistake as to which of the great parties the working men have to depend upon for laws which they require for their protection.
