Forty or fifty yctars ago. when some people lovad labor bett•r than at prt•-•ent, two or thrst.e weeks were often spent in mowing the annual growth, of bushes m the row-pastures, whcic the plough would do the butoners much more thoroughly. No service or drudgery can he bett✓r calcula ted to make boys dislike farming titan this eternal rePetition of clippint , huslics without prospect of reducing them. T h e labor is about ao interesting as that of turnint , a grindstone by hand, or churning cream in cold weather in a dash•churn. Wherever the pinueli ran be made to an in a hush-pasture, it should be preferred to any in strument that barely. cuts the bushes. These' will make good manure when well buried, and it is more pleasant labor to plough than to mow them, Farmers often say we have more Find near home than we eau mmure, and it is folly to plough up our pastures unless we ran ma nurethem : we' are only making them!pnorer. This is not sn where a grain crop is not taken off. Every ploughing makes lands richer, pro vided there is vegetable matter to be buried in the furrow. None ploughing will not kill all the bushes, a second ploughing may finish them ; and it is 'lever to kill half than to let them,. all stand. lasture•lands that are turned at this season should lic s sowed directly with gras•seed : no grain shonld be thrown on. If plaster of Paris snits the soil, a couple of bushels apread 0:1 an acre will give. tha grass a good star:: but on.. some soils pla.iter seems to do on !loud. A man may plough one or more acres in a large pasture without the labor of fencing off as in case of planting ; for his cattle may a eneral ly be taken from his summer pssture in !his month, before they can injure the new grass.— When lands are seeded down to grass, !bey should be harrowed well and laid as smooth as may be, that they may he better fitted for anoth er ploughing a few years hence. If no manure can he spared, the land should be turned occa sionally, and more especially where there are bushes. In most cases we obtain better feed the next summer than if we had not turned over the soil; but we should not -turn in the cattle quite so early in the spiing. Hour doctrine is correct, that grass does not exhaust lands, it must be evident that by repeat ed ploughings, and turtling under the vegetalde growth, we are making our pastures richer and richer. But how few will plough without sow ing grain ! Many are loath to make the cx pniment. The plea of the slothful is, " we cannot en rich our farms, because we have not manure." This plea will not hold where a man has a team and a plough. Truspin ME kDoT: INTO ENGLI 4 II.—List September oc carted as Emmy loads of loam and soil from the roadside on to a meadow near by. as one man could do in one day with a yoke of The grass on the meadow was coarse, CEEEI and as we had an abundnare (d bay, we prefer red not to Winn' thi6, but to here it green. One man with oxen would cover nearly one fourth of an acre in a day, as the long grass helped to fill up the hollows betwieo the has- socks. After this was evenly spread over the grass, so as to cover it completely, a few toads j of compost manure were spread on the top. and then herds grass and red-top were sowed and brushed in. It was near the middle of Septem ber when it was sown. This summer the piece gave a fine crop of English hay, and the clover which was thrown, on in the spring now looks finely for fall feeding. This land was thorough ly drained, and the mud from the ditches help-. ed' us to form the new surface. Thus where there is soil near a meadow that is made dry enough to be carted on, one man in a week, with a si n gle yoke of oxen, will carry on enough of soil to convert a whole acre of poor meadow into English mowing.' Say the ex pense is two dollars per day, or twelve dollars per acre,—and such land needs not much ma nure: it will nearly maintain itsell in grass, if the rowen crop is turned under once in a few years. This Lind, thus prepared, is worth more than one hundred dollars per acre twenty miles from Boston. How much of such land we have within thirty miles of Boston, which now bears 'a bur den that will hardly pay for fencing ! It re quires no expensive process to double the quan tity, of hay now cut in Massachusetts. low Lends. Now is the time to improve upon lands that lie too low to be tilled for grain. We know of many farmers who are determined to make trial of our mode of treating these lands. We beg of all our brother farmers to make the trial of at least one acre each. We know what will be the result, for we have been practising on this plan for years. We bring our low lands directly into grass from gram- without going through with the very unprofitable process of planting such lands with corn or potatoes. We have formerly said much on this subject, but we think it must not yet be dropped ; and, especially, as we have very many new patrons who wish t , know our views in full on a sys tem of seeding lands to grass which never has been extensively practised in any part of the world. Any farmer may try a single acre without fear of ruin, for he may plough din a day, one more day will serve to carry on his manure and seed it to grass. If he dare not venture so far out of the common course of hushaudary, let him try one fourth of an acre, and finish up the business in half a day. Every farmer of fifty acres has some land too low to be planted. Every one has lands which lie cannot make so productive as he whould wish. If we pursue the systern of planting each field before we lay it to grass, the process requires so much manure we cannot do lustire to all our fields : some must lie nearly unpro ductive, merely for want of due attention. In general, the time to plough is when there is sot - fiend:l , r on the ground that may be turned in green. This is cheapest, the easlest. the safest mode of enriching our worn-out By adopting this pl.m we can easily make, all our tilia , e lands fertile. We can go through each field with such rapidity that the whole farm may feel the benefit ofoor presence.. 13y ploughing in a green crop of rower at this bole. hut very little manure is required to addition fur an,acre, and ivc arc thus enabled to reed down four acres for one for the next season's In addition to this, the sod keeps the land light !ouch longer than if it had been pulverized by plaiting; consequently the land will no' need to be ploughed again so soon. ' But Most of Ds have lands so low that we cannot think of planting them. They produce nedies, skunk-cabbage. buckhnrn, polly-pod, bond's bane, moss• or low blueberry' bushes. that are all worth rather more n he covered up by the ColDeh than to be mowed or fed. Many such fields as these may be easily plotwhed. and now is our time. Our cattle are strong., Rod Are kept new at small expense, com pared with 'sprint , keeping on hay. We have now more leisure for ploughing than at any sea son when We have any thing that is green to be covered up. METuou OF SEEDING ON VIE FURROW.— We will a mil remind our early patrons and in form our more recent friends of our mode of ,eedinc on tl.e furrow at this season of the year. We take a good plough that will lay the furrows flat; we next roll them down hind, then carry on a duzedloads or more of compost, or fine in-inure. and harrow thoroughly. Ast length wise of the furrow, then a litile angle-wise.— We then sow herds-grass seed and red-top, and cover it up with a brush-harrow. It us hest to sow clowil a. soon a. possible after ploughing, as the seed is more likely to vegetate. In winter we sow on some clover-seed. and that will he forward enough for fall feeding next season. Clover will not remain long in such laud, hut me think it best to fill up the ground with good grass, to kimp out the poor. By the time this top-rooted plant dies, the whole space will he filled by the spreading herds-grass and red top Preparation of seed \lint. _ I have noticed several communications in our velualile paper, al mot the preparation of seed whe.tt ; as they all differ somewhat from the method I have adopted for the last three years with much success, I beg leave to give you inv mode of preparation. I place a half e liesehead nearly full,of water in my barn—add glanber salts until the water ceases to dissolve them ; then take half a bushel of wheat in a bale basket, sink it gradually, stirrinz it with a paddle, untillevery particle of filth is washed out, whir h'Avill float on the brine; raise the basket suddenly to throw off the filth, let the brine drain from it. place the wheat on thereat and roll it in newly slacked lime, then run it a side to let it dry a few hours before seeding ; skim the floating filth from .the brine and strain it throu gh a colander or IMO seive.— lly this mode one hand can wash as fast as ten ploughs can put it in. In 1813, I' received 100 bushels of seed wheat from the Western shore ; after seeding more than one half. 1 discovered smut in it, and pre pared 30 bushels as stated, =shine °Min quanti ty of smut and other filth. In 1844 Ifound the smut much increased in the wheat not prepared ; in that prepared after a careful examination. I found only one smuthead ! I then examined the grain, and thought Iteould see a perceptible dif ference in favour of the prepared wheat. In the fall I seeded 75 bushels of that wheat, washine imly 12 bushels. In 1815 1 examin ed carefully the 12 bushels seeding, and found no smut; I did not - examine that not prepared, but found none in cleansing it for market. 1 again compared the grain, and observed if any I thing, a great difference in favor of the prepar ed wheat. I also discovered a like difference in a white wheat that I was seeding. Last 1,11 I prepared my entire crop s 162 bush els, using . 200 lbs. salts, and nearly six barrels of slacked lime. '1 seeded two small parcels of wheat, one from Pennsylvania, the other from the southern part of this ititte, both containing a large portion of smut ; if these prove clean, the coming harvest. I shall consider this preparation Roof against smut. As we have discovered an antidote for this pest, I now no longer fear it and will recommend to your subscribers in this, part of the country, the change of their seed wheat at least every two nr three years, for I am fully satisfied from experiments I hive made, that great gains will result from it.—Farmer's Cabi net. MENTAL. AnarrsTios.--Wonderfully does the mind of man suit itself to occasions, and become accommodated to every circumstance. It will rise superior to the strokes of fortune, he happy in adversity, and serene in death.— The consciousness Of rectitude will not onlyi enable it to endure evil, but divest misfortune of its every terror. Tenderness will yield to an unbending firmness, and the eve in which the tear of emotion has so often started will disdain to weep. Ile who remarks the vicis situdes of fortune, and how quickly prosperity may be succeeded by a fall, can alone appre ciate that property of the mind by which it be comes elevated in triumph and . extracts from adversity its hiddenjewel . N ot rightly allow ing for the action of this property, we err often in imputing misery to the cheerful, and felici ty to the sad. Belisarius, blind, and the sport of his enemies, might have yet been happier than the emperor of the east. The principle of adaptation to every thing which can be the lot of man is a good genius which follows him throughout his being. and its workings are alike evident, whether you regard his mental or physical relations to the phenomena which en , compass him ; it is this which gives a zest to his pleasures, a solace to his cares ; it gilds for him the sunbeams of the morning, and when night approaches. it smooths" for him the raven down of darkness till it smiles." PARSNIPS FOR Moos.—W hile carrots appear to be excellent food for horses and cattle, and very poor food for hogs. parships are found to be very fine for hogs. A writer in the PRAl rue FARMER. says, that parsnips are preferred by hogs to all other roots. make excellent pork, and will fatten them in six weeks. A hog 22 months old, weighing when alive 750 pounds, was fattened entirely on-raw parsnips, and sour milk " and liner rneat was never seen."

The Treasury of History, Comprising a general introductory outline, of Universal History, Ancient and Modern, and a series of se perste histories of every principal nation that exists, their rise, progress, present -con dition, &e., &c., ,ke , BY SAMUEL MAUNDER, • Author of the " Treasury of Knowledge," " Biographi cal Treasury," &c. including THE HISTORY 'OF AMERICA, EDITED ET JODI( INMAN, Esq The republication of this valuable work has been undertaken partly on account of the high favor with which it has been received in England, but chiefly in consideration of its.intrinsic value, arising from the felicitous adoption of the plan to a want that has been long and generally felt and from the judgment and fidelity manifested in its execution. The idea of giv ing in c single work, of no very formidable dimensions, a sufficient outline )f the world's" whole history, and similar outlines of the history of every nation, is so obvious, judicious and appropriate as to require no culogium. Every person who cares at. all for the acquisition of useful knowledge must desire to posess such a general knowledge of past cventr, pot 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 understanding there is always a'serious diminution both of pleasure and profit. even in the perusal of such works as are designed chiefly for amuse ment. 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 are so well qualified to awaken; and so of most other works belonging to the better class Of what is called light literature. lint 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 to obviate such difficulty has been the purpos of Mr. Maunder. Itis plan has the merit 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 wercynt the rise and progress of nations, the most im portant incidents of their career, and their relations to each other; and after this he takes up the nations separately, furnishing a concise digest of all 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 general sketch or ontline. Thus the salient points of history- are brought within a man ageable compass ; and an excellent foundation is laid for more thorough and extensive reading in reference to any portion of the world or any epech of which a com plete knowledge may be desired. In the execution of this plan the author haii been very surri, , f Li I. His notices of historical events,though brief. are lucid and satisfactory; and he tracer the connection of effect and cause with singular acumen and generally with most commendable freedom from partiality or bias; thus supplying a very• good idea of the philosophy of history as well as of the facts which history records.— In word, the work will be found invaluable to the ge neral reader, and a very useful help to the student.
