• CHEMICAL UNIONS-
Every fanner should knew enough of
chemistry, ! 1 ) tell thfl combinations that forma
the different vegetable creations. Every plant
nod Vegetable is formed of the same substa'm
ces^,bnly : united id ’different
All - 100,,8re formed of only fifteen elements.'
The names of these elements wo have often
given f but as a Valued subscriber has asked
ns, “What is the l?est way fora former of
limited means, loocqoire a knowledge of Ag
ricultural Chemistry ?” we will repeal what
wo have often anid, by recurring to the first
principles of Chemistry ; and if our “subscri
ber,” of Sullivan, will learn this lesson fully,
lie will be prepared to be bis own teacher af
terwards, fay experimental training.
The fifteen- simpje elements are oxygen
hydrogen, niirogcn, chloi‘ihe, carbon, potash,
sods, lime, alumnia, magnesia, iron, manga
nese, silex, sulphur, and phosphorus.
Some of these names may be heller under
stood by calling them differently. Thus to
cal) chlorine, muriatic acid ; carbon, coal 1 or
the part of n thing that will burn j alumnia,
clay, and silex, sand—they will perhaps, be
belter understood. The other substances
are probably understood by their chemical
namds.
Now’, by different combinations of these
substances, are all other substances formed
Thus oxtgen and nitrogen from the air we
breathe; nitrogen and hydrogen combined
form ammonia, or hartshorn; chlorine and
ammonia combined (root sal ammoniac; ox
ygen nod sulphur from sulphuric acid ; sul
phuric acid and soda from ghiuber salts; sul
phuric acid and magnesia combined from ep.
sum salts; sulphuric acid and alumnia, or
clay, form alum ; sulphuric acid and iron
combined from green vitriol ; sulphuric acid
and zinc combined for while vitrol ; sulphur
ic acid and lime combined form “Plaster ol
Paris;” oxvgen and phosphorus combined
form phosphoric acid and lime combined
form bones, or phosphate of lime ; oxygen
and carbon combined form carbonic ncid,
(so fatal in rooms where burning coals arc
kept;) carbonic acid and lime united form
chalk, and limestone, called carbonate of
lime, potash and aquafortis combined form
saltpetre ; soda and chlorine com! ined form
common sah. Potash, soda, and ammonia
are called alkihcs as they possess a sharp,
bitter, hurniiiir laslc. Potash is derived from
the ashes of land vegetables; soda from sea
plants, and ammonia from animat substan
ces.
Now, by these changes nn<l combinations,
all plants ami vegetables, as well as animals,
ere formed Thus, a slick of green wood is
formed by ibe combination of oxygen and
hydrogen ; the sap, or water, carbon or coals;
and the ashes, or earthly matter, are drawn
from the earth. By burning it, the water is
changed back into the two gasses, and thrown
off into the atmosphere. You have coal, of
carbon IvL. This, though apparently dry,
still contains water in the shape of oxygen
and hydrogen uisu:i.<ed, and in a solid, dry
form. Burn the e.nVi- or coal, and the
balance of the ox;, l • .ml hydrogen is driv.
en o/T. and the rei,..i.f.s me earth. Analyse
these ashes, and wo shall find all of the fif
teen elements, except the gases, which haw
escaped ;.•• • 'V- atmosphere. To ascertain
the amouu, ol gas in a “lick of wood, weigh
the st'tct,. then char it in a pit, and weigh
again : then reduce it to ashes, and weigh
them. In the firs', operation, you get the
weight of the gases united into sap, which
are thrown off: in the second, the weight of
the gases unoombtped, existing in n solid
state. So with lime, which united With car
bonic acid, forms limestone. A bushel of
limestone weighs H2lbs j burn it, and it
weighs only 75 lbs., showing that 67 lbs. of
carbonic acid and water have been thrown
off; add 20 lbs. of water to it, and it will
crumble into drv powder, weighing 93 lbs.,
shewing that the change of 20 pounds of
water into solid dry substances, has been ef
fected with a loss of only two pounds.
In analyzing the ashes of wood, we find
what earth is used in forming the plant or
tree. The apple tree shows a large propor
tion of alkali and lime ; the peach, iron ; po
latoes, potash; wheat phosphate of lime;
clover, lime ; and the cranberry, of potash.
When the farmer has got thus far, perfect
ly, he knows what composes his crops, and
that his apple trees need ashes ; the peach,
iron scales; potatoes, leached n-.lu; hone
meal; and clover, lime. When he '■urn
pletelv learned this lesson, wo will, perhaps
give him another,— Ohio Farmer.
Simple Remedies.—Cotlon wool, wot with
sweet oil and paregoric, relieves the ear ache
very soon.
Black or green tea, steeped in boiling milk
and sweetened with loaf sugar, is excellent
for the dysentery.
A good quantity of old cheese is the best
thing to eat when distressed by eating too
much fruit, or oopressed with any kind of
food. Physicians have given it in cases of
extreme danger.
Blackberries nrc extremely useful, in eases
of dysentery ; to eat the berries is very
healthy ; tea made of the routs and leaves is
very beneficial, and a syrup made o( the ber
ries is still better.
Whortleberries, commonly called huckle
berries, dried nre a useful medecine for chil
dren. Made min lea and sweetened, they are
very beneficial when the system is in a res
tricted stole, and (he digestive powers out of
order. —Ohio Farmer.

Judicial Discriuimatiom.— Sume of the

manner of the Dutch Justice, before whom
three inebriates were brought up,
“What did you get drunk on? said fie

“Blackstrap.”
“You .be,one big rascal ip drink such, poor

Rum was the next fellows weakness, and
he was fined two dollars, rum being a mnre
respedable tipple in the estimation oflhe
Justice.
“And what makes you trunk my friend?”
said he to the third culprit.
“Punch.”
“Go long mils you, I fines you just noth
