- Tlvo broihiil from the Emerald Isle, a I
few years since purchased a piece of 'land
not far firma the Kennebec, and went town*
to clear it upi 'After cutting down the large
growth, and burning over the underbrush,
they proceeded to contrive a plan to get the
fallen trunks together in a pile for the put.-
pogeof burning 'also. •
The land lay upon the bill-side, and they
concluded that if' they could roll,a large log
which lay near the, summit, and place it
about half way dowii; they might pile the
balance against it and thus, secure the object.
But how were they to prevent it, when
'once under way, from rolling to the bottom,
and thus defeating their plan?
To accomplish this, they obtained a rope,
and making one end fast to the log, one of
them was to hold to the other end to pre
vent its, going too far, whilst the other was
- to start it. .Fearing that he might not be
Ate to prevent the ropefrom slipping through
his fingers, Jimmey, who was the steersman,
tied it to his tiody - r 1
"Start him ai7, Phelim," said he, after
convincing himself that all was right and
tight.
Phelim did . starthim, and as the log corn
-me-aced its progrees, the rope caught in a pro
jeel.ting knot,-and began rapidly to wind up.
It soon drew poor Jimmey chock up. Firs
he went over the log, and then the log wen
over him, and so they continued their cir
cumgyrations and somersets.
Phelim watched their progress for a mo
ment and then sung out, "Stick to ltim,Jim
they—faith you're a match for,,him,any way
you're atop half the 'time, by me soul !"
ED .= ADVICE TO THE gints.—Dr. Beeswax,
in his admirable "Essay on Domestic Econo
my," talks to the young ladies after this fa-
shion :
. "'Girls, do you want to get married—and
do you want. good husbands ? If so, cease
to act like fools.—Doa't take pride by saying
you never did housework—never cooked a
pair of chickens—n'qver made a bed and so
on. Don't turn• up 'your noses'-at honest in
' dustry—never tell yOur friends that you are
not .obliged to work.:, When you go-d`shop
ping, never take ydur mother with you to

11:7Wity ARE coals so productive of grand
mechanical effects Because of their great
hidden powers, which we can at pleasure
call into action. Thus, it is well known to
modern engineers, that there is virtue in a
bushel of coals, properly consumed, to raise
seventy- millions of pounds weight a foot
high. This actually is the average effect of
an engine sit this moment working in Corn
wall.. The Menai Bridge,. one of the, most
stupendous works-of art that has been raised
by man in modern ages, consists of a mass
of iron not less than four millions of pounds
in weight, suspended at a medium height of
about 120 feet above the sea. The consnmp
tion of seven bushels of coal would suffice to
raise it to the place where it hangs.
-The great pyramid of Egypt is composed
of granite. It is 700 feet in the side of its
base, and 500 in perpendicular height, and
stands on eleven acres of ground. Its weight
is, therefore, 12,760 millions of pounds, at a
medium height of 125 feet ; consequently it
could be raised by the effort .of about 830'
chaldrons of. coal, a quantity consumed )n
some foundries in a week.--./. F. Herschel.
Wur WAS part of the marriage/cere
mony performed at the church-porcht Be
cause of an old law, by which, nowhereelse
but before the lace.of, and at the dtior of, the
church, could the marriage dowei havebeen
lawfully assigned. Chaucer, who nourished
during the reign of Edward ILI. allude; to
this custom in his Wife of Bath, thus—
fa' Win- is the day before Lent called
Shrove Tuesday ? Because of its corruption
from Shrive, an old Sazon word signifying
confes4ion. Hence, Shrove Tuesday means
Confession Tuesday, on which day all the peo
ple in every parish throughout the kingdom,
during. the Rouiish times, were obliged to
confess their sips, one by one, to their own
parish priests, in their own parish churches.
ay' Wny is the German " silver " im
properly so named ? Because it is nothing
more than the white copper long known ,in
China, and does not contain a particle of sil
ver ; it is only an alloy of copper, metal,
and nickel. Although non ., only coming in
to known use in England,'. it has been no
stranger to the manufactories of Birmingham
for at least twenty years or more.
Jo- Wily is the cushion-dance so called ?
fiecause it partly consists of women, kneel
ing on a 'cushion to be kissed by the male
dancers. Selden speaks of the " Cushion
Dance, and all the company dance, lord and
groom, lady and ki:chenmaid ; no distinction
—omoinen gatberem, iolly,-polly, hoite come
toile." The Quintain was also common at
weddings.
WHY , DO some fishermen cut the gills
with a knife as soon as the fish is taken 'I—
Because: an injury received by the gills of
fishes is attended by a consid6able effusion
of blood ; and a fish, so killed, will keep
much longer in a fresh state, chat one on
which this operation of bleeding has not
been performed.
Ca. Wiry is the day before Shrove Tues
day called, Collop Monday ? Because iewai
the last day of flesb-eating befote Lent, when
our ancesters cut their fleshrneat into collops
or steaks, -for salting or liangicieup till Lent
was over: hence, in many places, it is still
a custom to hare eggs and collops, or slices .
of bacon, at dinner on this day. ;
LICr WUY ear. pancakes eaten on Shrove
Tuesday ? Because they are taken troth the
heathen Fornacalia, celebrated on the 18th
of February ) in memory of making bread be
fore ovens were invented by the goddess For
nax.—Fosbrooke.

Da. Sways[.—Dear Siel—Beheving it a duty I
owe to the public., and in Justice to you, I hit re
thought proper to make known one of the most ex
traordinary cures, In my own ease, that has ever
been truly recorded. In the mouth of October last
I was afflicted with a severe. gathering In my breast,
which formed a large abet's, and also communicated
to my Lungs. and very much afflicted them, and die
cherged largoluantltiee of corruption, external and
internal, that is, large quantitiem passed through my
Lunge. which I threw up. My breath could also pees
through my Lungs, and out through the cavity of my
breast with apparent ease, attended with a violent
cough, day and night, loss of appetite, and extreme
debility, so that In/ physicians thought my ease en
tirely hopeleseend beyond the power of medicine.-.
I remained in phis wretched condition for a long time
nDUI I Well wasted to a mere skeleton, and there
seemed to be no hope for me. but having read In the
public papers of the many wonderful mares performed
by your COMPOUND SYRUP OF WILD CHERRY,
I immediately atoll° Baltimore for five bottles and
commenced Renee, and to my great aothifortfon and
ansioue family, the'abeess or opening In my lungs
began to heal, and , the cough subside, and on using
ten bottles I was restored to perfect health. I feel
very grateful and firmly believe, that to your valu
able medicine. under the blessings of Divine Provi
dence, lam mdebted for this great change, and I am ,
happy to say that I am now enjoying as good health
as I ever have.
orithe satisfaction of those who are not acquain

of gentlemen welt and favorably known to a large
portion of the citizens orMaryland and Virginia, and
will doubtless induce all who are similarly &alined to
try your wonderful and losslualle Compound Syrup

page 35, statee the same great feet, and deseribei The
met bodof preparation. There are few higher authori
ties than Dr. Pereira,
Dt. Combe, in big vaineide writings on the "Physiol
ogy of Digestion," observes that ''a dimunit len of the
due quantity of - the Gastric Juice is a prominent and
ail prevailing tense of Dyspepsia;" and he states
that 'lt distinguished professor of medlcin,. In London,
who Was severely afflicted with this complaint, find
ing everything 'else to fall, had recourse to the Gastric
Pulee.obtained from the stomnch of living animate,
which proved completely successful."
Dr. Graham, author of the famous worse on "Vege
table Diet," says: "It Is a remarkable fact In physi
ology, their the stomachs of animals, macerated in
•reater, impart to 'the duld the property of disthivins
various articles of food. and of effecting a kind of are
titicial digestion of them in no wise different tram the
natural digestive process."'

discovery of PEPSIN forms a new era to tire chemi
cal histoty of Digestion. From recent experiments.
we know that food Is dissolved as rapidly in an arti
ficial digestive fluid, prepared from Pepsin, as It Is In
the natural Gastric Juke itself."
Professor Dungnoon of the Jefferson College, Phila
delphia, in his great work on human Physiology, de
'ewes more than flay pages to on examination of this
I subject. His eiperunents with Dr. Beaumont, on the ,
Gastric Juice,ohlained from thelivlng human stocaach
and from animals are well known. "In nil cases,"
he says, "digestion occurred as perfectly in the arti
ficiality In the naturaldigestions„ '
Dr. John W. Draper, Professor of Chemistry In the
Medical College of the University of New York, in
hip "Text Book of Chemistry," page MO, says: "It
has been a question whether artificial digestion could
be performed—but it is now universally admitted that
it may be."
Dr. Carpenter'sstandard work on Physiniugy.which
Is In the library of every physician, and is used as a.
Text Book in all the Colleges. Is full of evidence slant;

power of Pepsin,
and the fact that it may he readily

remedy for disease- of the Stomach, and deficient se
cretion of Ga s tric Juice.
All modem works on Chemistry, Materta Medico,
and_Physiology, and all g ood Medical Dictionaries.
describe the character an dproperties of Pepsin, and
state many interesfing details respecting it.
Thd fact that an artificial digestive Fluid, or ()maple
Juice, perfectly resembling the natural fluid. may he
readily prepared, does not admit of questions The
only wonder Is, that It has not been applied to the
cure of Indigestion and Dyspepsia—so - naturally does
such a use suggest Itrielftn the mind.

CULTURE OF BROOMCORN.
The editor of the American Farmer, being
applied to for the best mode of Cultivatin g
Broom Corn. makes the following, reply, ft . '
which, as this crop is becoming one 01
portance to farmers, we lay before our rel. V,
ders :
1. Cukeeorion.—Broorn Corn should been!. t ,
tivated the same as Indian Corn; the ground
should be well manured, thoroughly and ' ,.'i.
deeply plowed, and harrowed until made of
fine titth ; the grobnd should be listed 3 feet ":=
by 18 inches wide. In every intersecting list
drop front 20 to 30 seeds, and cover. When -
the plants come up and show themselves
across the field, or lot, plow between the •
rows, and dress around the plants with the
hoe, so as to eradicate all grass and weeds,
and have the soil open to attnospheric 'nib.
ence. The second working should be at 1i)
or 12 days after 'the first. This should be
done with the cultivator through the rows,
and around the plants with the hoe. At the
second working, thin out the pl an t s , so as to
leave front Bto 10 in each hill. The third
working should he given in a week. or. ten '
days after the second, with the cultivator and
hoe, as above recommended for the second.
2. Richness ofroils. —A good crop ofhroor,
corn can only be raised on rich land, except
the land be liberailly manured. Any manure
that is good for Indian corn, is (10;ia for broom
corn ; each requiresto be Well All.
3. Of soils.—Loamy or alltvial soils, rich.
in vegetable matter, suit it belt; and such
soils, unless they have been' recently limed,
will be greatly improved by applications of
lime, marl, or ashes.
4. Bending tops.—The tops should be :urn•
ed down about 2t t feet, say ; n week before the
broom corn be gathered, to facilitate drying.
5. Time of plantmg.—The same as For
Indian corn.
6. Time of harvesting.—About the. middle
of the first frost. The stalks should be cut
about 8 inches fiom the brush.
7. Curing.—The brush When cut, should
be dried on scaffolds, under cover, to preveut
injury to its color, from exposure to the
weather, as the brighter the color the better
price will it bring.
S. The seed should be taken froM the brush
before being taken to market.
Cleaning seed.—At the Eastward, some
use a broom corn hackle or scraper, made for
the purpose; while others use a currycomb.
9. Value of brush, as in quality, frog 41e
'Pets. per pound, the price depending upon
the care bestowed on its culture and curing.
10. Product per acre ranges from 400 to
•1000 lbs., the product depending on goodnes,
of soil, degree H of inahuring, season, anti
cleanliness of culture.
SEED PLANTER
Col. William Redick, of, Union Town, Pa.
has obtained letters patent for a Seed Planter. '
recently invented by him. This machine
scores out the ground and plants two row ,
of corn each rime it passes over the field, r'
dropping and covering more perfectly than
can possibly be done by the hand hoe,.sa.
wing the labor of the hands that would be re.
quired to drop and cover, and one man and
horse scoring scoring out, dropping and covering as
much in one day, as the same man and horsy
could merely score out, (both ways for check .
rows) in four days. It is constructed fc
three modes of planting, in check rows step
hills or in drills, can be changed from one
mode to another by moving slats in the tint.
torn of the seed box. The quantity also, can
be regulated to plant thick or thin, in either'
mode. In planting in step hills, or drillc,
the horse only performs double as much
work as with the plow; because it has to be

TRANSPLANTING FRUIT TREES
Land to be set with fruit-trees should be
plowed in the fall, or very early in the spring;
it should be plowed very deep or subsoiled.
When the ground is quite ready, get your
trees, and set them the same day, il you can;
never buy trees that have been dug over
winter, and "laid by the heel;" nor. plant so
late in the season, as when the leaves have
started ; trees of this kind may live, but yed
lose the growth of them the first season.
whereas, by the right kind of management,
transplanting will hardly put, them backtat
all. We have often planted trees which
grew four feet the first year. Holes• should
be dug of sufficient width and depth to ex
tend the roots to their original capacity.—
When the trees are placed in the holes, spread
out the lower roots and cover them with fine
earth, as also all the rest in like manner:
get the roots into the earth so that they will
stand interspersed, in regular system, with
'the soil, as the roots of a growing tree al
ways do. The practice of thrusting the roots'
of a tree all in a heap, the❑ piling on hard
earth, manure, .lke;, and stamping it down
hard, is sometimes 'successful, but no scien
tific cultivator would recommend it. After
trees are set, the ground should be stirred
around them while the heat of the season
lasts, as often as once in two or three weeks;
and it great drought should prevail, they
should be occasionally 'watered ; this ihourlil
be done by making holes with a stick atnong
the roots, and then poor on a pail_Of water.
TO PROTECT, TREES
Meadow mice or moles-often destroy trees
by girdling. As they work under the snow,,
treading doWn early snows around trees is a
preventive. Heaping up ti cone of earth
around a tree, in the fall, is generallk sure,
On grass land, a cart-load of foam will suffice
for several trees, and if spread around" them
in spring, will improve the soil.
Trees may be saved ; by tying around them
shingles, laths, old barrel staves,'boards, old
leather, canvass, cloth, birch; &c. In Eng
land, soot and milk applied as paint, prol?co

off in the spring, remote it, with soap-suds.
