DRAINING AND DITUDING.—ThiP is pnSSibly
one of the hest seasons of the year for earrying
on these operations, and we would therefore ad
vise the owners of lands to avail theinsel% es of

been to a wet condition. moonily. of their surplus

the roots of plants have to struggle for existet.•e
in a hod of puddle—aquatic plants may there
exist and flourish, but it is iniposihle that the
grain crops or artificial grasses ran thrive under
such disadvantageous circumstances of position.

time will tame to your aid to carryout that will.
Recollect that unless you provide food for your
crops, suntectproducts mtist he the consequence,
or the soil and the plants. - stand just as much in
need of eating, as do man and beast.
LATE CORN.—Any late corn. with may not
have received its last working. should be attend
ed to without the least delay, and laid by with
an open . and clean soil, by aid of the cultivators
and hoes—the plough should not he used now
when the roots of the plants are coursing their
way across every furrow, in search of food, and
will not bear being torn asunder at this advanc
ed period,of their growth.-every rending asunder
of roots now serves to decrease the format:on of
kernels.
SREr.i.—This let it be recollected, is one of
the months during which the fly despoils i:s
eggs in the nostrils of sheep.—and that those
eggs ate hatched therein. and produce the disease
called worms in the head. which kill so many
cheep. A little prevention now will save you
much labor and losses hereafter. For each
sheep you may have, place in a trough under
cover, a gill of tar, sprinkle °vet the tar as many
gills of sail as you have sheep. The sheep
will resort to the trough daily, to lick the salt,
and, in doing so, will daub their noses with the
tar, and thus be provided with a preventive
remedy against the fly. This strewing of tar
and salt on the bottom of the trough; must be
confined weekly for three or four weeks, when
the the period of danger will have passed. If
. 2,:0u value your sheep—and what good farmer is
there that does not—see yourself, that the hand
you entrust with the duty, faithfully performs it
--and that a fresh supply of tar and salt, is
weekly provided. To do it once, and not re
peat it weekly, is just as bad as if it were not
done at all.
FALLOWING FOR WWEAT.—We have long been
impressed with this belief, that many (milers
delay sowing W heat too late, and to that t !tenni
stance, in part, may he ascrihed the evils re
sulting front winter killing. If the seed be sown
late, it is imposible that the roots of the wheat
plant can attain that length and strength re
quisite to enable them to. resist the upturning
action of the frosts of spring—we say yring,
because we believe that it is in spring months,
during periods of alternate freeting and thawing.
when the injury resulting from what is termed
winter lollin ,, is done. In ordinary winters, we
are justified front personal observation in saving
that such is the fart. Dread of file/fess/an Fly,
that course said to have been entailed upon US
by those mercenary legions, sold by two of the
petty German principalities to George 111. du
ring the Revolution, have it lluenced many in
postponing the pericd&of sowing wheat. We
are pleased, however, to observe the number of
late seeders becoming less every year, and wheat
growers are adopting the more philosophic view
of the matter, in order that the plants may have
time to throw out a protecting series of roots
beforo frost sets in. ripropos. As the Med
iterreanean wheat is said to possess the proper
ty of resisting the fly, to a very great extent,
and delights in early sowing, ought not this
variety to be adopted to a great extent ?
Taking intb view all the operating circum
stances, we can see no good reason for delaying
'the commencement of seeding wheat. beyond
the 15th of September, and believe that it would
be judicious rule to finish by the 26th or 25th
at farthest.
SEEDING OF RYE.—The earliet Rye is got in
this month the better. We should not eppe
bend danger from its becoming too rank, because
if it did, that is easily remedied, by turning the
sheep upon it in the spring and eating it down.
One of the largest yields of Rye' on record, is
mentioned by Mr. L'llorninedien :—A neighbor
of his inanured 20 square rods ofground with four
thousand manhaddan fish, and sowed it with
Rye. In the spring, it was twice successive
ly eaten off close to the ground, by sheep break
ing in, after it had acquired a height nine inches
the first time. and six the latter. These croppings.
however only served to make it pow thicker &
stronger than before and when harvested, it pro
duced 16 bushels, or at the fate of one hundred
and twenty eigh bushels to the acre We do
not mention this isolated case of extreme yield.
to encourage the hope that any thing like it could
be raised on a large scale; but simply to show
that eating off by sheep in the spring may be
practed without in the least endangering the
yield of kernel, and that therefore, the eviel
of rankness, and consequent lodging, 'may be
obviated to the manifest advantage of the Rye
grower, because he may thus secure himself
with pasturage for his sheep at a season of the
year where provender is most needed. Green
Rye, it is well known, WI green food for stock.
genera'ly. and particularly for milch cows and
suckling ews, is valuable on two accounts—
first. because it is among the earliest green food,
and secondly, because. (tom its seculent nature,
it tends to encourage the secretion, and secures
a generous flow of rich milk, making the first
description of animals liberal etmtributors to the
pail, and the latter most bountiful suckling
mothers.
It may be worthy to make a passin4 remark
upon the nature and quantity orgie-tnanure used
in the production of the eKtraordinary yield of
Rye to which we have alluded. The quantity
</ Intl on which the 400 Manhaddan fish was
applied, was 20 square rods or 5445 square
feet, so that there liqrilearly j of a fish upon
every square rout aground. a quantify which
-we believe too large. that if
the Rye have not been twine stteces•ively eaten
down, that though there might have been lots of
straw, th..re would'have been but very little
grain. • Fishiliough esteemed a manure of short
duration is admitted to he powerful while it may
last, Unfortunately there has been no very nice
analyses made of fish, vet it must be admitted,
if we are to form an opinion from analozy. that

did not more generally - avail 'theMselves of this
resooree to restore fertility to their too generally
worn out soils. Having mentioned that fish
is looked upon as a manure of sh. rt duration,
- we will remark, that we see nothing in its con
misuent elements of an evanescent nature except
the gelatinous matter, which being soluble in
water, is subject to easier decomposition.
The quantity of seed per acre is from 4 to 5
peeks of Rye.
DESTRVCTIoN 'OF BRIARS 'AIcD

whole put into piles, and when dry enough have
them burnt.
TIIRA , 4IING OUT (;RAIN.—As soon as your
grain will set to work and have it got
out, in order that you may avail yourself of the
rise of the market should occur, of disposing of
your surphissage. Wheat growers on the At

larger quantity thairformerly, to seek the markets

Prior to placing your grain in your Granary,
have that thoritughly washed with, ley, walls
ceiling and floor, and then white-washed—and
stop up every hole and crevice through which
a rat or inou , e might get his destructive car-

TURNIPS.—This root may he sowed tip to

sowed a fortnightago.

hitherto prevented from doing so, may sow up

maturing its seen, and of affording a full sup
ply of those delirious breakfast cakes, which

STLBLE Fisams.—A bushel of plaster, per
acre. strewn over the stubble fields will encourage
a fine growth of clover, and thereby improve the
soilrfor fu ore cultre.
Pomons-11 the late Potatoe have not alrea
dy received their last working, give it to them
forthwith—let the furrow be flat at top, not
rounding. Your ploughing done, strew over
each acre of the Potanies, 4 s bushel of lime and
silt, as a preventative against the potato rro—
and by the Way, you might, with decided
advantage, add a bushel of soot, or ashes, to the
mixture.
CLOVER STUBBLES, AND YOUNG CLOVERS lELDS*
I—These should each be treated to a bushel of
plaster per acre.
SAnrixo OF STOCK—See that your cattle
receive a modrate allowance of salt at least
twice a week. An equal quantity of salt and
lime, the latter to he slaked, will answer as
well as the salt by itself.
Thum Cows.—As the season is coming on
apace, when the pastures will be almost denud
ed of mass. the milch cows should receive
messes in the barn yard of sufficent succulence
to enable those necessary appendages to the
homestead, to yield a goodly supply of milk. It
should, therefore, have been your duty to have
an acre or so in a lot contiguous to your cow
yard, in broadcast corn, lucerne, or millet, to
cut for tbein.
SERVING OF COWS AND TWO YEAR OLD Thor-
Ens.—Procure the best bull your nighburhood
affords, and have your cows and to year old
heifers served. By having this attended to
now, these creatures will come in next May, a
time when your pastures will be in condition
to afford sufficient food to sustain the new
claims, then to be made upomthem. We have
advised you to procure the service of the best
bull in your neighborhood—and we will add,
that by-selecting a . Durham. Devon, or Ayrshire,
you will go far towards improving your stock,
as calves from such a cross will - ha infinitely
superior to any which could spring front native
bulls, and will therefore be more valuable to
you, should you design to raise them—and, if
intended for the butcher, will bring you more
money. So that in whatever light we may
view the subject, it must be apparent that your
interest lies in doing as we advise you.

FROM JAMES W. ESTILL
SALIM, Columbiana ro., Ohio, April 1841
Dn. D. JAYNE—Dear Sir I feel bound to you and
the public. to avail myself of this opportunity of giving
publicity, to the extraordinary effects of your Expectornt
on myself. Having been a ffl icted for several years with
a severe cough, hectic fever, and its concomitant diseas
es, I seemed only doomed to linger out a short but mis
erable existence, until the fall of CS39. when being more
severely attacked, and having resorted to all my former
remedies, and the prescriptions of two of the most respec
table physicians in the neighborhood, without deriving
any benefit, or the consolation of surviving but a few
days, or weeks at farthest, when the last gleam or hope
was about to vanish, I bad recommended to me your Ex
pectorant.—and blessed be that Being who does all
things in the use of the means—and contrary to the ex
peCtations of nip physicians and friends, I was in a few
days raised from my bed, rind •was enabled, by the ,me
of a bottle, to Attend to my business, enjoying since, bet
ter health than I had for ten years previous.

-The Treasury of History,
Comprising a general introductory outline, of Universal
• History, Ancient and Modern, and a series of so
perste histories of every principal nation that
exists, their rise, progress, present con

&e., &c., &c, •
BY SAMUEL MAUNDER,
Author of the "Treasury of Knowledge," "Biographi
cal Treasury," &c. including
THE HISTORY OF AMERICA,'
.EDITED DI lOU ITIMAN,ssq,
The republication of this valuable work has been
undertaken partly on account of the high favor with
which it has been received in England, bat chiefly in
consideration of its intrinsic value, arising from the
felicitous atlapdiiin of the plan to a want that has'been
long and generally felt and from the judgramt and
fidelity manifested in its execution. The idea of giv
ing in a single work, of no very formidable dimensions,
a sufficient outline the world's whole history, and
similar outlines of the history of every nation, is so
obvious, judicious and appropriate as to require no
eulogioni. Every person who cares at all for the
acquisition of useful knowledge must desire to posers
such a general knowledge of past events, not only in his
own country but in all countries, as shall enable him
to understand the perpetually recurring allusions that are
found in almost any course of general reading; because
for want of such ujidcrstantling there is always a serious
diminution both oT pleasure and profit. even in the
perusal of such works as are designed chiefly for louse--
mem. For instance, most of Sir Walter Scott's novels
are founded upon history, and abound with reference to
historal events and personages, a want of some acquain
tance with which detracts seriously from the interest and
delight they arose well qualified to awaken; and so of
most other works belonging to the better class -of what
is called light literature. Hu the difficulty has been to
obtain this general knowledge without going through
many books, requiring a greater expenditure of time and
money than most persons are able or willing to afford;
and toobviate such difficulty has been the purpos of Mr.
Maunder.
His plan has the mecit of completeness, and is un
doubtedly the best that could have been desired. H.
gives first a general sketch of ancient and modern his
tory—a rapid and comprehensive bird's-eye view, as it
were of the rise and progress of nations, the most im
portant incidents of their career, and their relations to
each other; and after this be takes up the nations
separately, furnishing a concise digest ofall that is im
portant or desirable to know concerning each, and thus
affording a sort of key to the changes and events that
were more briefly indicated, rather by their results than
theri incidents, in the geheral sketch or ontline. Thus
the salient points of history are brewed within a man
ageable compass ; and an excellent foundation is laid for
more thorough and extensive reading in refererfee to
any portion of the world or any epech of which a com
plete knowledge may he desired.
In the execution of this plan the author has been very
successful. His notices of historical events,though brief,
are lucid and satisfactory; and he traces the connection
of effect and cause with singular acumen and generally
wi th mos t commendable frecdom from partiality or . bias;
thus supplying a very good, idea of the philosophy of
history as well as of the facti which history records.—
In a word, the work will be found ihvaluable to the ge
neral reader, and a very useful help to the student.

The aide-spread fame of these splendid Period ica l,
renders it needless to say much in their pr. As
literary organs, they stand far in advance of any ao r t a
of a similar stamp now published, while the political
complexion of each is marked by a dignity, cond om 4
forbearance not often found in works of a pony d al.
acter.
They embrace the views of the three great fum e ,
England—Whig, Tory, and Radical.—" Blackw ft ie
and the " London Quarterly" are Tory; the. Edi,
burg Review," Whig : and the " Weettninister," p.
cal. The "Foreign Quarterly "is purely literary,
ing devoted principally to criticisms on foreign coa t i.

The prices of the RE-PRINTS are less than °flotilla!
of those of the foreigacopiea, and while they are equ,
ly well got up, they afford all that advantage to tLe
American over the English reader.
