That day leaver; it is seldom that ono now meets with an American ship abroad. Visit our deckle Where once hundreds gf splendid ships were:eating on the stocks. ready for launching, and you cannot fail pi be struck with the small number of vessels that are now being constructed. Our ocean commerce has been transfer red to foreign liOttoms, and in New York, our great emporium, which is by its natur al position destined to be the centre of trade, you sa only English, French and tierman flags floating- over the splendid steamers that daily leave the port. We have bmugig our country back to a fair condition after the terrible disorder bits which it wan thrown, and this in the face of difficulties which to many appeared insurmountable. Why, then, can we not restore our commerce not only to its ancient standard, but place it in advance of our great commercial rival that is now fatten ing on the resources of this country, which should be used for our own greatness". • • • • - • • • , Your remarki relative to the number of swarnernrunning from , our ports to ripe are very - fiertinent to the subject be. fore us. is not only the trade the. vessels monopolize •to which we object but also the \longer they may bring us the event of a War.

It is nruost mortifying sight to our countrymen not to see the stars and stripes hoisted on • single European steamer, and their chagrin is all the more Intense when they feel that it wants but a little legislation to put our Commerce on its legs once more. One strikfeature in the legislation U of the.nited totes has hitherto been to il protect its s hy ping interests to such an extent that we could depend not only upon any nuMber of seamen in awe of war, but we could withdraw them from England. Onr seamen now, as well as our ships, are becoming the property of Great Brit ian. In a few years they will be losing their nationality, for the navigation laser of England are ea protecting and towering .to seamen that the best of ours are desert ing their Hag, under which . there is scarce any employment to be found. • • i have heard the Western men, who lisit far from sea ports, say. "What does it matter whether fur commodities are car ried in foreign or home bottoms, as long as they do go?" They would find out the difference if a war should spring up be tween France and England—by no means an improbable contingency-I.nd the mer chant vessels of both nations should. for a time, disappear from the ocean. • • What would then be our condition with no vessels of our own? We should have to call In the aid of Germans. Italians, Portugues, and Spaniads, to enable us to get our commodities to a market. At the very time when we shouldhe in a condition to take the advantage of our commercial rivals we should be again in the condition of a blown horse. witnessing the success of inferior racers.

We have more resources than any other nation on earth. As a people, we have greater energy, shrewdness and adapta bility of character than any other. Our agricultural products exceed all that is [ - known, elsewhere.

Look at the great bon workshops of our ' country, and see how they have languish ed for want of something to do. We have facilities for building iron and wooden ships known to no other country, and the best timber, coal and Iron in the world. Yet all these things count for nothing, as we can not build a ship on anything like equal terms with the British, and until the onerous duties aro reduced our ship builders will be idle. L.think our people only want the chance to be even with England once more, anti - would be Willing to kw a little In the en deavor to catch up.

Therefore, ,whilst we 'should avoid all unnecessary haste and excite ment at this alLimportant moment, let us push ahead vigorously and patiently our judiciously conceived plans of operations,, doing what we have to do in a workman like manner.

Let them treat each hill to a mizture of rich manure, either at the time of planting the corn, when it first COMPS up. brat the first working. Refer. ring to further remarka upon the culture of this great crop in our country, we will now only further allude to the subject by urging dpon the corn-planter as an imper ative duty 'to keep the eorrdiehtclean from the beginning to the end of fill. work, so that the strength of the soil may not be wasted upon grass and weeds, which will endeavor to assert their claims for posses. sion, if not met with a bold front at the outset.

A half yard of the green will be sufficient, as it requires little; also some half worn calico cut into blocks ten inches square, which will form the foundation. Now take a bit of I ,4een, one and a half inches square. and pin it on the calico exactly in the center. Here will be the starting point. Cut the red and black cloth into strips one inch in width. Sew a piece of the rod strip as long BA the little green square on the opposite side of it, making the stichee gothrough the cali co, just as you would in making folds; afterwards titre-lack thew *trips towards the edge of the calico, and pin them to keep them straight. Now take of the black, wo strips, each as long as the green square. and the ends of the red *drips al ready sewed on. These are to be sewed on the remaining ends of the green square,: making them extend along the ends of the red attics. Turn these back in like manner as you did the red; thus every time you wilrcover up the seam. Now, again. a striP of the red must be sewed on the red,haVina It extend along the black ends; and then' a black strip must like wise cross the red ends; and so continue using color about until the calico block is _covered, when it will be finished. When turning hack tht, strips, leave them full. so as to imitate quilting, as you quilt and piece both at once. After making enough blocks for a quilt, join them together to suit your fancy, either putting the red sides together or rpd and black alternately.

I= Treatment of Soft Corna.—A small piece of al ammoniac dissolved in two tea spoonfuls of spirits of wine, and the same quantity of water.

A good remedy for soft corns is common chalk rubbed on the corn every day, and a piece of cotton wool worn between the toes af fected, to prevent pressure—the chalk ap pears to dry up the corn.
