Ilenee, it is easily got rid of by any means tending to prevent its going to seed.— The Canada Thistle is also an annual so far as the plant is concerned, but its root is perennial aud jointed, each joint, like that of the elder, j prodiM'iug a distinct plant, lleu*e when the, ground containing Canada Thistle is ploughed and harrowed, the roots are more widely dis persed, and the plants greatly multiplied.— This pest is extensively sjtread in the Northern part of the State of New York, from whence it lias been introduced into Pennsylvania, and several other of the Middle States. Some- j times the seeds have been mixed witn those ol timothy and other grasses, and sometimes they have been transported, attached to the wool of sheep driven from the North. Whenever the weeds gets hold of the soil, its creeping roots so tenacious of life, make it oue of the worst j pests known to the farmer. j A great many devices have been resorted to for t he eradication and destruction of the t'auuda j Thistle. Some aim at the entire removal of j the root by extirpating machines contrived to 1 cut oil'and harrow up the roots. Others rely upon mowing down the thistles when they are j in full bloom, as a most certain method.— I After cutting down, some common-salt applied to the stems or crowns of the roots, makes the destruction much more sure. It is an admitted fact, that the life of trees and plants, when these are not in the torpid state in which they , arc enabled to exist in winter, depends upon a 1 function performed by their leaves ortwigs.de- | prived of the use of which for a given time, ! during the season of their growth, trees and , plants inevitably die. Low and frequent | rutting down in summer about the blooming iieriod will doubtless destroy plants however j tenacious of life thev may lie, since the roots j are as i.meh indebted for life to their leaves or twigs, as the leaves are to the roots. Neither ! long, without the aid of the other important members of the system. Much in teresting and practical information relative to ! the various expedients resorted to in Luroje fir the eradication of thistle, eonch-gr. si and other weeds with creeping and tenacious roots, will be found mentioned in the Farmer's, Encyclopaedia under the heads of Thistles. Ac. j G. EMERSON. Orchards, Apples, and the Market. " David, I am going to quit the nursery ! business. In twenty-one years fruit will lie a > drug in New York city. H bv, everybody is [ setting out orchards. Just look around this neighborhood I There is deacon Jones has j just set out 500 trees; Tom Smith 400, and his brother Jim will have 1000 next spring, and j so 011 at that rate all over the country—graft-; ed fruit, too, none of it for cider. Now what do yon suppose is to become of all these apples I tell you what it is, David we must wind up the nursery business or we shall break flat. Every body is going crazy about fruit. Every bodv will grow it, but uo body buy it, a few years hence." This prognostication was made more than twentv years ago by a sensible man engaged in propagating choice fruits for sale in Central New York, and 110 doubt the speaker honestly believed the days of the nursery man were well nigh numered. Brother David, however, was of a different opinion. He did not believe it wnn mi i-asv to overstock the market with such fruit *as no other than American soil and climate can produce. He did not believe 'ere twenty years' time would elapse everybody would have an orchard, the products of which would be so unsaleable, and the business so un profitable, the owner could have no desire to plant more or better, or newer varieties of trees ; consequently he urged that the business should lie perseveringly continued until the dawning of the evil day was more visible in the horizon. What has been the result ? A sale of 40,000 apple trees and 7.000 of other fruits during the planting season of last year, and the prospect for the next equally good. The very men who had planted 500, have increased 1000, and some of them have doubled that ten-fold; and yet the market is now better than it ever was before for all the choice varieties of the pro duct of orchard, vineyard, or garden. The market is not vet glutted, nor can it be while millions of mouths continually water for the luscious fruits which contrast so advantageously with the sour crabs, "five to a pint," which tilled the market twenty years ago. The market cannot be glutted with such trait as the Newtown pippins, Roxbury russets, Rhode Island greenings, Baldwins, Bellcflucr, Swaar, Dominc-, and a great variety of other excellent winter keeping apples; while the luxury-loving mouths of old England arc within two weeks (we have done counting distance by miles,) of the fruit bearing hills of New England. Nay, not only New* England ami New ork. but the ever bearing trees of the rich plains of that once far away western wild, known in our boy hood as New Connecticut. But still the market is not glutted, nor will it be, though all Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, and Wis consin, shall pour in their golden treasures of golden pippins from their unbounded plaius of the richest fruit licaring land the world ever saw, while that same world full of people possess the taste they now do for choice, deli cious fruits. Our advice, therefore, is, as it has always been, to every man who owns an acre of land— plant trees. Don't be afraid of overstocking the market with any kind of fruit, except such as your fathers used* to grow, and some of you still j>erj)ctuute; because the refined and im proved tastes of the world demand, and will have, if it is procurable, the best that can be grown.— Oswego Journal. Practical Hints about Poultry. Whether the large sized varieties of fowls which " are all the rage" now amongst fancy breeders and dealers, are really preferable to the old-fashioned barn-vard fowls, is a subject of which there are two opinions among those who have tried both. To say nothing of the enormous prices which they occasionally com mand, they weigh heavily in the market scales, or till a large platter 011 the dinner table. But on the other hand, they are great gormandizers themselves, and are generally considered diffi cult to raise. Roosters should be changed as often as ouee iu two years, if not annually; and pains should be taken, in replacing thein, to procure strong, healthy and perfect birds; the hen will lay better, aud hatch more chick ens. % Ouly a small number of hens should be ki pt in oue house, or together. We have known repeated instances iu which keepers of poultry have heroine disgusted at their failure to lay, awl have determined to kill them off.— They have commenced reducing the number, which was jerhaps forty or fifty, and when they got down to half a dozeu, wore surprised to find every one of the hens laying, and the supplies of eggs for the family better than the whole number furnished. As to profit, we doubt whether, if all their food be bought, the cirgs and chickens produced by any breed, and sold at the regular market prices, for the table, will pay the expenses of keeping, but it by no means follows from this, that liens are not a source of profit on a farm. They cat much of what would otherwise be entirely lost and wast ed; and a small patch of buckwheat, sown at a trifling cost, and left on the ground where they can stroll over it and feed at their pica sure, will keep them as fat as butter. Ihe main point is, the great value of the manure of poultry. The hen-roost is the place where most farmers should go for their guano. If obtained there, it will invariably prove of good quality. There need he no fear for those who get their guano from this source, that it will turn out to be spurious or inferior. We doubt whether even intelligent farmers would estimate at more than one-hundredth part of its amount the quantity of excellent manure, which can bo made in this way in the course of a year. The hen-roost, duck-roost and turkey-roost should be supplied with several loads of peat, swainp mnek, or both, spread evenly over the surface of the floor, and on this there should be scattered a thin layer of sand or gravel. On rainy days, when the work can be done as well as not —and as often as practicable—this should be all shoveled over, and the manure thus mixed with the other ingredients. The compost soon becomes strong, when it can be removed, and fresh supply of suitable material thrown in. The house is kept sweet, clean and healthy for .the fowls; and if any farmer will adopt this plan, and practice it faithfully for five years, and keep an accurate account of the crops raised directly from the compost made with the poultry manure, and from the manure made by feeding those crops out in their turn, he will be amazed at the amount of each which he will have real ized, and at the permanent improvement of his fa rm. — Londonderry St a nda rd. Domestic Receipts. To CLEAN RINGS, BROOCHES, AND OTHER JEWELRY. —I'ut a little hartshorn into a saucer; dip into a clean, soft rag, from an old cambric handkerchief. With the rag, go carefully over the jewelry, on both sides. Then dry and polish, with another bit of soft rag; and finally, with a soft piece of old silk. Precious stones, mosaics and cameos may be cleaned in this manner. To brighten pearls, tear off a small bit of pin-paper, (such as rows of pins are stuck in,) roll it up, and, with the end of the roll rub each pearl, separately; renewing the paper frequently. To REMOVE ACIDS, AND OTHER STAINS FROM SILKS, GLOVES, AND WOOLENS.— The applica tion of hartshorn, rubbed on with the finger, will generally remove the stain-spots that are i sometimes found 011 new silk, and on new kid gloves. There are few stains, indeed, that may not lie obliterated by hartshorn. If too strong, dilute it with a little water. Pour out, iuto your saucer, but very little hartshorn, at a , time, as it evaporates almost immediately, Reddish stains, on black silk, or worsted, can, almost always, be removed by hartshorn; and | the original black color will immediately re | appear. INDIAN HASTY PCDDING.— Put two quarts of 1 milk iuto a clean }xit or saucc-pan. Set it over ; the fire, adding a level tea-spoonful of salt, and, , when it comes to boil, stir in a lump of fresh ; butter about the size of a goose-egg. Then add (a handful at a time) sufficient Indian meal to make it very thick, stirring it all the while with a mush-stick. Keep it boiling well, and continue to throw in Indian meal till it is so thick that the stick stands upright in it.— ' Then send it to the table hot, and eat it with I milk, cream, or molasses and butter. INDIAN MUFFINS.—A pint and a half of yellow Indian meal, sifted.—A handful of wheat flour.—A quarter of a pound of fresh butter.—A quart of milk.—Four eggs.—A very small tca-spoonfull of salt. Put the milk into a sauce-pan. Cut the butter into it. Set it over the fire and warm it until the butter is very soft, but not until it melts. Then take it off, stir it well, till all mixed, and set it away to eool. Beat four eggs very light; and when the milk is cold, stir them into it, alternately with the meal, a little at a time of each. Add the salt. Beat the whole very hard after it is i all mixed. Then butter some muffin-rings on | the inside. Set them in n hot oven, or on a j heated griddle; pour some of the batter into ! each; and bake the muffins well. Send them hot to fable, continuing to bake while a fresh supply is wanted. Pull them ojen with your fingers, and eat them with batter, to which you may add molasses or honey. REGULARITY IN FEEDING ANIMALS.— It is very desirable both for the thrift of the animal and the orderly progress of the labors of the farm, that all domestic animals, as far as pos sible, bo fed, watered, &e., at the same hour and minute every day. It has been found by experienced and intelligent herdsmen that, when thus attended to, they learn to expect their fodder at the stated time, and remain quiet and uncomplaining until that period comes around. This is true of all domestic animals, and should be heeded by the farmer. Let him so arrange his laliors at the barn that every operation may be performed at a stated time, and he will find matters te produced.

AYKK'S CATHARTIC PILLS liuvc been prepared with the utmost skill whieli the medical profession of tills age possesses, and their effects show they have virtues which surpass any combination of medicines hitherto known. Other pre parations do more or les good : but this cures such dan gerous complaints, so quick and so surely, as to prove ait efficacy and a |>ower to uproot disease beyond any tiling which men have known before. By removing the olistruc tiona of the internal organs and stimulating thcin into healthy action, they icnovate the fountains of life and vigor—health courses anew through the body, and the sii k man is well again. They are adapted to disease, and disease only, for when taken by one in health tlicv pro duce hut little effect. This is the perfection of medicine. It is antagonistic to disease, and no more. Tender chil dren may take them with impunity. If thev are sick they will cure them, if they are well they will do them 110 harm. Give them to some patient who has lieen prostrated with bilious complaint; see his bent-tip, tottering form straight en with strength again ; see his long-lost appetite return : see his clammy features blossom into health. Give them to some whose tool blood has hurst out in sen it 11 la till his -skin is covered witli sores ; who stands, or sits, or lies in anguish. He has tieen drenched inside and out with exery every potion which ingenuity could suggest. Give hint "these l'ills, and mark the effect; see the scabs fall from his body ; see the new, fair skin that has grown un der them ; see the late leper that is clean. Give them to him whose angry humors have planted rheumatism in his joints and bones ; move him, and he screeches with pain ; he too has been soaked through every muscle of his body with liuaments and salves ; give him these Pills to purify his blood ; they may not cure him, for olas ! there cases which no mortal power can reach : but mark, he walks with crutches now. and now he walkes alone : they have cured him. Give them to the lean, sour,haggard dyspep tic. whose gnawing stomach has long ago eaten every smile from his face and everv muscle from his body. See his appetite return, and with it bis health ; see the new man. See her that was radiant with health and loveliness blasted and too early withering away : want of exercise, or mental anguish, or some lurking disease iias deranged the internal organs of digestion, assimilation, or secretion, till they do tliey do their office ill. Her blood is vitiated, her health is gone. Give her these l'ills to stimulate the vital principle into renewed vigor, to cast out the obstruc tions, and infuse a new vitality into the lilooii. Now look again—the roses blossom 011 her cheek, and where sorrow sat, joy hursts from every featftre. See the sweet infant wasted with worms. Its wan, sickly features tell you without disguise, and painfully distinct, that they ing its life away, its pinched-up nose and ears, and rest less sleeping*, tell the dreadful truth in language which every mother knows. Give it the Pills in large doses to sweep these vile parasites from the body. Now turn again and see the ruddy bloom of childhood. Is it nothing to do these things ? Nay, are they not the marvel of this age ? And yet they are done around yon every day. Have you the less serious symptoms of these distempers, they are the easier cured. Jaundice, Costivenesa, Jiead ache, Sideache. Heartburn, Foul Stomach. Nausea, I'ain in the Bowels, Flatulency, Loss of Appetite. King's Evil, Neuralgia, (lout. and kindred coniploints all arise from the derangements which these I'ills rapidly cure. Take them perseveringlv, and under the counsel of a good Physician if you can ; if not, take them judiciously by such advice as we give you, and the distressing, dangerous diseases they cure, which afflict so many millions of the human race, are cast out like the devils of old—they must burrow in the hrutes and in the sea. Price 25 cents per box—s boxes for sl. Through a trial of many years and through every nation of civilized me, AVKB'S CHERRY PECTORAL has been found to aflord more relief and to cure more cases of pulmonary disease than any other remedy known to mankind. Cases of apparently settled Consumption have leen cured by it, and thousands of sufferers who were deemed beyond the reach of human aid have been restored to their friends and usefulness, to sound health and the enjoyments of life, by this all-powerful antidote to diseases of the lungs anil throat. Here a cold had settled on the lungs. The dry, hacking cough, the glassy eye, and the pale, thin features of him who was lately lusty and strong whisper to all hut him CONSIMITION. He tries everything ; but the disease is gnawing at his vitals, and shows its fatal symptoms more and more over all his fame. He Is taking the Cher ry Pectoral now : it has stopped his cough and niada his breathing easy : his sleep is sound at night: his appetite returns, and with it his strength. The dart which pierced his side is broken. Scarcely any neighborhood can be found which has not some living trophy like this to shad ow forth the virtues which have won for the Cherry Pec toral an imperishable renown. Influenza, Croup," Bron chitis, Hoarseness, Pleurisy, Whooping Cough, and all ir ritations of the throat and lungs are easily cured by the Cherry Pectoral if taken in season. Every family should have it by them, and they will find it an idvaluable pro tection from the insidious prowler which carries off the parent sheep from many a flock, the darling lamb from many a home.
