TUNER iDEA OP FARMING.
A - Meld Trench tool Illiforolarlbatit, a
writer of considerable promineimaqintradtices
among its characters a French gentleman who
is as large proprietor in the province of Alsace,
benided on the west by the Vosges mountains,
and on the east by the river Rhine. Although
of aristocratic birth on his father's side, he
has married into the family of the former own
er of the property, and all his revenue is de
rived from its cultivation and from the mill
witioh belongs to the estate. He is the "model
farmer" of the whole region, and we translate
the following account of his system of manage
ment, as he gives it in showing a Parisian visi
tor over the farm ;
There is not so much live stock," said M.
Ilonnore, "and if I keep it all, it is not for
the purpoee of carrying out io real life the joy
ous hyperboles of Rabelais. The farm is about
72500 aeres in extent, and belongs to my son-in
law, my. children, and myself; in spite of the
proverb, we have put all our eggs in the same
basket. One half the domain is in culture, the
other in meadow, according to the laws of goad
rural economy. wow, 1250 acres of arable
land, in cur country at least, require fifteen
plows, and as many yoke of oxen. Twenty-five
horses are needed for the harrows, transpor
lation„the service of the mill and the wants
of the family.
"It is agreed that 2-4 acres absorb every year
the manure of one cow or six or seven sheep,
and for this reason I am keeping 1800 of the
latter and 230 head of horned cattle. Of the
hundred swine you have seen in the manure
yards, 60 go to market; our workers of both
sexes will consume the remainder from one
year's end to another, for on the farm and in
the mill, we are employing fifty persons. The
poultry yard and pigeon cotes. which together
contain a population of more than a thousand,
serve to vary our daily bill of fare, and any
thing over goes to Franenbourg for sale; the
expense of this little world is almost nothirg,
thanks to the broken fragments from the house
and the siftings from the mill. Oar products
consist in grain and roots, such as potatoes and
beets, and we also raise some tobacco and hops.
The net income of the farm averages, good
years and bad, $2O 000. The mill with the ma
chinery now in operation, brings us in very
nearly $lO.OOO, and my son-in-law and I share
these rtturns in proportion to our capital and
respective labor. The products of the poultry
yard, and some other little revenues, compose
the budget of my wife and daughter, which is
proper enough, since they conduct themselves
like good farmers' wives, and their assiduous
- supervision economizes for ua.some thousands
of trance every year."
"These results are fine," said Gerard, "but
I am surprised that people of the world, rich
enough to live at Paris, deprive themselves of
gaiety for the sake of calculations so absorbing
and a life eo narrow."
"No, it is Parisian life which is absorbing ;
and the horizon of your first stories which is
confined and narrow. All that the accumulated
population of a capital produces which is good
or „grand or pretty, reaches us with two days'
delay; new ideas, useful inventions,good books,
well edited journals, eloquent discourses, sue
-ceasful plays, and even the last fashions in hats
anil mantles, arrive at Franenbourg nearly as
soon as at Montmartre. And we have what
you Patitia s lack, health, good humor, the
open air, long walks, the sunrise over the
Rhine, the sunset behind the forest ; we have
families large and well—the pleasure, ever new,
of seeing glow and flourish what our own bands
have sown—u life of liberty and plenty—the
right of inviting a dozen friends every evening,
and of extending the dinner table indefinitely
without its costing us anything ; and finally,
we have the privilege of giving real assistance
to people really poor, whom we relieve from
their misery, instead of plunging them into
idleness."
Gerard confessed- with good grace that be
had never seen anything of the kind at Paris.
"But you know," said he, "that agriculture as
we now understand the word; is an admirabn
thing. -
K. Honnore smiled strewdly s and answered
"'lt is the easiest thing to learn, and the most
pleasant to practice ; it beautifies and strength
ens the body ; it gives the mind leisure to think
If friends and of public affairs ; it teaches
courage, probity and hospitality.' It is not I
who say this, but one of my old friends, a cap
tvia w ho retired to hie farm, as nave done at
the end of. his campaigns. His name was..'"ii
nophost, odd be was to my ihinking the rpost

'•Why!! Because, in the first place, such a
capital is necessary as they -generally lack.—

on t h e contrary :that the division
of property - was a source of 'riches."
“Nothing is more true within a certain limit.
The FreaMh revolution doubtless accomplished
a good.work in dividing .the estates,of the :no
billy and clergy, which had been managed
contrary to the plain teachings of common
sense. The acoessiou of elf Citizens to landed
property elevated the populs.t. mind and aug
mented the , profits of the Wench tug. The
Civil-Code, which divides and'sub divides con
tineally the estate df the father among his
-children, - consecrated a principle of eternal
Juitiee. But these benefits of 1789 ptodueed
at the end of two generations,' an evil which no
one foresaw. Neerarolbsciiiiiring no* that the
large farm has its advantages: Without it
there is no pasturage, and_no breeding ; with
out breeding, no stock; . without stack,_no
nuts; without manure, - no 'fertilitY.4-omitting
many.other disastrous consequences,- such as
the enhanced price of meat-, the decadence of
-our-cavalry, &c. And while economists honest;
the peasants„ still animated by the spirit of 'B9,
are on the latch about domain of more'
than 250-aeres. •As emin as it is known "that
the proprietor is in -emberrassment, M. Jeffs,

T . LYON'S PURE OHIO CATAWBA
BRANDY.
L
THE OHIO CATAWBA. BRANDY .has, for eaveral
yearn, been manufactured from tne purejuice of the
AMERICAN CATAWBA and ISABELLA. GitAPE and
has attained a rare popularity throughout the West and
South, where great quantities of this superb article is
sold for MEDICINAL and FAMILY purposes. It not
only equals, but excels the most choice IMPORTED
BRANDIES in P OMIT Y, QUALITY and RICHNESS OF
FLAVOR, and wherever it has been introduced it had
invariably met the most unqualified favor and extended
sale.
The want of really pure Brandy has long been felt. In
this country and the opportunity to procure an article
of such quality as to supercede the sale and use of the
many vile compounds so often sold under the name of
4, Brandy," can be regarded only as a public goad.
L. LYON'S OATAWBA BRANDY pogsesses all the
choice qualities of the best imported liquor, mid is posi
tively known to be of PERIAOT PURITY and of 1317-
PERION FLAVOR.
In support of the above statement we refer to the
certificate of the undermentioned well-known chemist;
Dr. A. A. Hayes, Assayer, Boston, Mass.
Dr. James It. Chilton & Co., Chemists, New York.
Dr James B. Nichols, Analytical Chemist, Boston,
Mass.
Dr. J. V. N. Blaney & Dr. G. A. Marriner, Analytical

Dr. Coz, Chemist, Cincinnati, Ohio.
Dr. Charles tlpham Sheppard, Charleston, S. C.
Messrs. Gentry and Blackwood. Chemiete, Tenn.
Dr. N. A. Pratt, Savannah, Georgia.
All of whom have analysed the Brandy and recommend
it as a perfectly pure article and as an invaluable medi
cinal agent. ,

this Brandy for the city of Harrisburg and Dauphin co.
