AGRICIALIPURAI"
RIPE BIZEAT)
Bread made of wheat flour, when taken
out of the oven, is unprepared for the sto
mach. It should go through a change, or
ripen before it is eaten. Young persons,
or persons enjoying vigorous health, may
e.tt bread immediately after being haken,
without any sensible injury trout it; but
a g ed or weakly persons connotand none
eats cat Without doing harm to to this diges r , I
tivC orgrns. Bread, after being baked, goes
through a change similar to the eltriage in
newly brewed beer,.or newly churned bin
ter-milk, neither being healthy until after
the change.' .During the change in bread,
it contains a large portion of carbon, or un
healthy gas; and imbibes a large portion
oxygen or healthy gas. Bread has, accord
ing to the computations of physicians, ore
fifth more nutriment in it when ripe, than ,
when just out of the oven.
It not only has Arturo nutriment, but im
parts a greater degree of cheerfulness.--
Ile that eats old ripe bread, will have much
g reat e r flow of animal spirit's, than he
would were he to eat unripe bread. Bread,
as before observed, discharges carbon and
imbibes oxygen. One thing in 'connexion
with :this thought shotild be particularly
noticed by housewives. It is this, to let
the bread ripen where it can inhale the ox'-
yen in a pure state. Bread Will alvSays
taste of the air Math - surrounds it while
ripening ; hence it shindil ripen where the
air is Pure. It should never ripen in a
cellar, nor in a close cupboard, nor , in' a
bed-Morn. The noxious vapors RI a cel
lar or cupboard never shoeld enter into and
form a part of the bread we eat. Bread
should:be light, well baked, and properly
ripened before it should be eaten. Bread
that is several days old, may be renewed
so as to have all the frealtheas and light -L
'less of new bread,liy simply pilling itin-.
to 'a common steamer ober the fire, and
steaming it half or three qoatitre:4_,An
hour. Tho vessel under the steamer con,
taining the water should nut be mute' thin
half full, otherwise, the water may boil •up
in the steamer and wet the bread; After
the bread is steamed. itrahould be takes out
of the steamer, and wrapped loosely in
cloth to dry, and cool, and remain so a
short time, when it will be ready tcebecut
and used.. It will be then like told new
bread.--American Farmer.
TO PREPARE BONES FOWM,kNIPRE.
As mills fur grinding bodes are- very
costly, it is a great desideratum for the far
mer to kndw he can diliciWise' pr picid
theta fur his crops. By the folloWing
pie method he can reduce them to a fine
powder and' increase theirrehur fourfold
"'rake MO pounds .of bone mid place
them in a kettle, or in in old tub Unfit for
-further use, or oven in a hollow scooped
in the ground, - and made tight by tilting
with clay. Next take from 30 to 35 lbs . ,.
of oil of vitriol, (sulphdrie acid,) mixed
with one-third to one-half its Weight of wa
ter, and pour over the bones.. In a day or
two the, bones will dissolve into a liquid
paste, to which there must be added, by
stirring. in,. wood ashes, or fine mould, /tor
til it is of the consistency of thick mortar.
Put the mixture tinder curer out of the
way of rain, and in a few weeks it will be
comesa light dry powder, which may be
applied by the hand or otherwise to any
kind of, land that may require it. In pre
paring this mixture great care must be ta
ken to keep the oil of vitriol front touching
the clothes or skin, as it will burn them as
badly as fire. . .
oil of vitriol for this mixture must
be of a firte-rare quality, otherwise it will
require a greater quantity to dissolve the
'bones. The mixture answers best for' a
turnip crop; but it' is highly valuable for
other roots, as well as for grass and grain.
It should be applied at the rata of 20 to 40
bushels to the acre, sown broad-cast on
grass land in the spring, or on grain and
turnip crops after harrowing in the seed.
For . garden or field crops planted in rows
or drills, as roots, corn, beans, peas, Ate. it
may be_applied in the hills or rows at the
time of sowing, or it may be afteiwarda
sprinkled around the plants at the time of
hoeing.
'CHARCOAL FOINPEACII TMICE.B.-..Mr. M.
Cleveland, of Hartfonl, states in the Amer
ican Agriculturii4, that having a favorite
young Peach tree, the leaves of which
were turning yellow, he removed the turf
and soil near the roots, in a circle of about
two feet in • diameter around the tree, and
filled the space, to a level with the sur
roundintsoil, with finepieces and dust of
charcoal, which remained in the bottom of
a boa. Th , •o result was surprising. 'l'he
tree pt on fine healthy leaVes instead of
the yellow *nee, and all other signs of
sickness departed in 'a wonderfully short .
apart of time. The tree again commenced
growing,- and reatained perfectly !healthy
until some years after, when it was .de•
airoyed by die weight idiot crop of fruit
assisted by a swat wind. !Cis worthy
of note that this fruit. both iu quality and
site, was is much improved as the appear
ance of the tree itself.

A Commentary for the People.
IRtirOW publishing, the ECLECTIC C 05151 pi
itIMI TART on the Bible, from the works DI
Henry and Scott, and above one hundred other wri
ters. ,The work is printed online paper, and with
large clear type. It will be completed in 24
parts, of SO pages each, imperial Syo, all of which
are now stereotyped. It will be beautifully illus
trated by accurate dews of scriptural scenes, de
signed expressly to embellish a Commentary, and
executed by the most eminent artists. Tables
and charts are likewise added, where necessary
for purposes of illustratio ri, and the whole compri
sing an valuable a series 01 illustrative engravings
and embellishments, as has ever been united in a
ny similar work. It may be used with any edi
tion of the Bible. Will be published semi-monthly
at 25 cents each part.
The design of the Committee of the London
Tract Society, under whose supervision the Eng
lish work was prepared, has been to cover that
ground where all evangelical denominations meet,
and to make a plain and practical exposition of re
ligious truth and duty. - •
This work is based upon the commentaries of
Henry and Scott, and more than one hundred oth
er writers in the various departmenicof Biblical
Literature; the most important observations of
these eminent divines being quoted, constituting
a digest of the most valuable •melts at which the
learned men of allagechave arrived, in their crit
ical study of the Holy Scriptures. Reference has
been had to the wants ot Sunday School teacher*
and of families engaged in the systematic study of
the scri Inures.
Perhaps there never was a juncture of time when
true religion more greatly needed a safeguard
gai nat attacks which are both boldly and insidi.
°wily aimed at her vital principles; perhaps true
religion
,was never in a more perilous position be
tween open enemies and pretended friends, than at
this part rc ular crisis ; and surely never was it
more incumbent than now, on every true friend of
her holy precepts, every conscientious master of a
home-hold, every anxious. parent, guardian and
protector, to be provided with the antidotes to the
poison, which is so unscrupulously scattered a
broad, or an argument against each dangerous fal
lacy which.is propounded to the injury and detri
ment of that religion.which lathe faithful oracle
of the Divine Creator, and she beat exponent of his
will. '
The object of the compilers has bees to provide
a come . nieMs*eumrotet rn size, moderate in price,
and eui:ed to &nations , of every station, rank and
denomination.

MOST WONDERFUL CURE.
Philadelphia, Dec. 4, 1847
Penetrated with a deep acme of gratitude for
the benefit experienced by the use of Thomson's
Compound Syrup of Tar, and that others who,
like me, have languished through years of affliction
and suffering, without being able to find a remedy
may know where it can be obtained, 1 voluntarily
make the following statement.
About four years since, alter being affected with
a violent cold, it left upon me a troublesome and
severe cough. Whilst the cough continued, w hich
was with scarcely an intermission during this
long period, language fails to tell y% hat 1 have suf-
Mred from debility, pains in the breast and side,
night sweats, difficult expectoration, oppressed
breathing, and in tact all those symptoms which
mark a severe pulmonary affection. The relief
occasionally obtained by the discharge of the mat
ter which obstructed the healthy action of my
system, but increased my leers, as the purulent
matter discharged, was trequently streaked with
Stood.
During this time I was under the treatment of
several physiciuns,and took many of those prepa
rations tecummended as serviceable in the cases
of others, but without relief : and 1 at length con
cluded that a cure in my case was hopeless. But
how agreeably slinfiged is now my opinion I I
have used fur about three weeks Thomson s Com
pound Syrup 0! tar. By the use of one bottle my
cough has been relieved and my system reinvigo
rated, and by continuing the use of it up to this
time, I urn satisfied that my complaint is entirely
removed Lind eradicated.

Gro. E. Smainvroti,
Dear 'Sir—l reel bound to the afflicted to give
publicity to the extraordinary effects of your in
valuable External Remedy, called Hunt's Lini
ment.
My daughter, a girl of twelve years old, had
been afflicted with IVAile Swellings, ni one of her
legs, directly below the knee joint, for several
months, during which time her sufferings have
been excruciating and deplorable. I called on
Physician; who, during frequent visits, made use
of every means in his power to orrest the tell de
stroyer, but all without effect The leg continued
swelling, until it opened, forming various dial
greeable ulcers, rendering amputation necessary
unless immediate relief be bad. Fortunately, how
ever, on the lint day of December last, your agent
having been in our village, and hearing of the suf
ferings of my daughter, he sent me one bottle of
your Liniment, the use of which alone, thank God,
has not only arlitated_the further progress of the
disease, bolas cured the leg perfectly, removing
all pains and ewellinp, and restored the leg to its
proper use.
I am under many obligations to your kind agent,
who thus, by one bottle of your invaluable medi
cine, saved the leg of my, daughter from ompaa
lion. Your Linimenf should find its way into ev
ery family. MOSES PHILLIPS.

is troubled with pain accompanied with a dull
