Effects of Ashes.
Peter Crispell, of Hurley, Ulster county,
states that he raised last year, on one acre of
land, three tons twelve hundred and eighty
pounds of hay, at one crop. The hay was in
merchantable condition, and of good quality,
as will appear from the fact that it was sold at
eight dollars per ton, and was all weighed on
the scales. The soil where this crop grew
was a dry, loamy alluvion, and had been in
grass many years Last spring Mr. Crispell
spread on a hundred bushels of leached ashes
to the acre, which cost eight cents per bushel.
The ashes increased the quantity of hay nearly
one-half, and from former experiments in the
use °Wheat, it is known that their effects con
tinue for several years.—Mr. Crispell has
made some trial with both leached and un
leached ashes, and the results, in his case,
would :seem to show that the unleached are
'not more valuable than the leached: Ile
thinks that ashes which have lain some time
after being leached are much more valuable
than whet they are applied immediately after
leaching. He states that this is also in accor
dance with the experience ot several of the
Long Island farmers with whom he' has con
versed.
GARDENING.—There is not in life a more
delightful occupation than gardening. To
breathe the pure mild air of spring, to prepare
the beds and borders for vegetables, plants
and flowers ; to sow the seed, and set out the
various slips and cuttings, arranging every
thing with order and taste : to lonk earnestly
for file first leaf and bud and flower ; to watch
their growth. to enjoy their beauty and fragran
ce, to show them to one's friends, to talk about
them, to have them admired, and to know that
all is the work of your hands or directions—
this is an enjoyment. scarcely to he equalled,
and accessble, in this country, to all. Let
none then fail to secure it. pe.filways thought
it evidence of a good wife, to see her often in
the garden, and fond of inspecting and atten
ding to its proper cultivation• and management.
Depend upon it she is a blessing to her hus
band and family. We would advise our young
friends, who want to marry, and they are, in
truth, a goodly number, to avoid those young
ladies who seem to have an aversion to the
primitive, useful, and beautiful art of garden
ing. We never knew a lady or gentleman,
who was extremely fond of, flowers and shub
herv. who had not a warm heart and generous
disposition.—Miss. Guard.
CULTURE OF Mvsnato.—James FI. Parme
lee. of Duncan's Falls, Ohio, raised last year,
twenty-seven acres of the black or brown mos
tarn. It appears that it was planted in hills
one foot apart one way and two feet the other,
the crop being well worked during the season.
The twenty-seven acres produced, by Mr.
Parmelee's account, 457 bushels, or nearly
seventeen bushels per acre. It may be sown
as soon as the ground is in proper condition to
work.
, ZINK is a rUSible metal, softer than iron,
though its fracture appears similar. It is com
bustible, and readily solUble in acids; and in
combination with other metals, forms some
excellent alloys.
MAGNESIA, is a pure white earth—has a grca
affinity for acids,. and constitutes the basis o
of the common Epsom salts, which is a sulphit

Monials of well-known and in some instances

efficacy in removing all obstructions, and restoring sll

imposed so many obligiitions in him by past confidence
that he cannot risk its continuance, by stopping to kick

NO. 3 CAN'T BE OUTDONE !
TIM undersigned are under many and deep obliga
tions to their numerous friends for the very libe
ral patronage they have received, for which we tender
you many thanks; and we have no doubt of a continu
ance of your smiles and furors" so long as we con
tinue to sell goods cheaper than any store within 100
miles of us.
We now have the pleasure of informing our friends
and customers and the public generally that we are re
ceiving direct from N. York, a larger and better assort
ment of Goods, that we. or any other merchants ever
brought to this market, consisting of
Dry Goods 4- Groceries, Glass 4- Nails,

We gave notice in our last advertisement that "we
had Henry Shelden 4- Co., floored—" since which time
some of our neighbors have been firing their little pop
gun-a at us, but its of no use—men who have stood at
the cannon's mouth as long as we have, cannot be
frightened by such small trash.
We can assure our worthy neighbors who have fal
len so deeply in love with the terms "bluff"and "hlor.
ling," that it is our intention so long as we remain in
business to always have a FLUSH of Goods, and after
the gross attempt made in 1842 to prevent our buying,
we aro not so green as to go to the city without a
FULL HAND, which in addition to the experience of
one of our firm in the city trade (having been for some
time a clerk in N. Yotk city,) enables us to buy goods
cheaper than merchants generally from the country can.
So just come on, all ye who want to buy cheap for
CASH, call at no. 3, shake " the ready" nt us and you
"are cough!—" or if you have a load of produce "girt
us the wink" and we ate artcr you.

wish to inform our friends that we are not to close busi
ness in the spring, as reported, but shall continue to do
hattle for the friends of Cheap Goods, as long as it will
benefit the county of Bradford. It is told in this way—
We have, we ran, and we will.
