AGRICULTURAL. ‘.IRIBII ItOSE .1117TTER: .A notice was published initlie Cultiva tor for July, as to "Irish Rose Butter," said to be the article which the govern ment required to be conformed to in con tracts.for supplying the navy. I have lately received letters from England and Ireland in relation to this Irish butter, and the reeult-is, that so far as I can learn, there is no such butter manufactured in Ireland for their shipping, as "Rose But ler," A letter from Clonnel, Ireland, Bays : ...kV° never heard - of :-tßose Butter"—but we know Ono of the Waterford houses breeds the best quality he ships with a Another letter says. "Ho understands that:there is "rose batter" which is put up witfilety little salt, and is nearly as gotid as.fmsh butter; but it is not fit for ••••. ; A;teiter 'from Cork, from which port the Muter for the British navy is purchased, beinemade in, the counties of Cork, Lim erick, and Kerry, says, "The term "rose butter" we know not the derivation of.— There is may one description shipped hem, end ell is brought id" for inspection, to a Italie market in this city." The letter front. Cork gives the method of manufacturing butter for the British navy, which I will give for the benefit of your readers, trusting that it will be useful to our dairyman, and may perhaps enable some of then► to compete for the supply of the Navy, with the one country referred to by your correspondents. The writer says— "The butter brought here, is packed by the farmer iu original packages, which 814)1;01W good casks of about 60 or 70 lbs. uett'each.capable of containing pickle, the pickelleries and cooperage, (with some 1 or 2 lbs. of the salt on each package ad ditional, to keep the pickle at full strength) should be done at the port of exportation as' here: The quantity 'of salt mixed in the making of the butter, to be 1 lb. of salt-to 10 or 11 lbs. of butter, and the but termilk to be well worked out of the but tar, without using, however, the hand too much. In packing, care should be taken to pack it as closely as possible. This. we believe, is the only instruction that can be given." H. tsinita-Daapasto.—Mr.Johnsto - n is of I opinion that the winter-killing of wheat is caused by two great a retention of water 1 inthe tail and subsoil. In this we fully agree with him: To obviate the evil he had resorted . to under draining with tdes. of which he laid 700 rods. The tiles are made by Mr. , Whartenby. of Water loo, after a pattern procured by Mr. J.. from Scotland. They cost at the kiln twenty cents per rod. The drains are dug about two and a half feet deep. or so low that the water does not come up through the bottom. The digging costs from eight to ten cents per rod. The tiles spear to be made in the best manner,— They are not in the - least injured by the weather; even when exposed to the most severe frost. When the bottom of the ditch is firm, the tiles are placed immedi ately on it; if the ground is soft, a hem lock board is laid down, on which the tiles are placed. A little straw is laid over the tiles'and the earth which had been exca vated is Then thrown on. 'w The beneficial effects of drain,g on Mr. 'Johnson's farm are very apparent. Pla ces which formerly would bear no wheat, nor indeed scarcely any thing but a kind of sour grass and reeds, are made, merely by draining, to produce the finest crops of every descriptfou of grain. He is so well convinced of the advantages of the practice that he has laid 400 rods the present sea son,: and intends to continue it still mere extensively. 1 1 11 r. J. is now begining to turn his at, Mahon, more than he has formerly been able to, do, to the improvernenaliis"builtl logs and fences. Along the roads, he is unitising the rail fences, and substituting for them neat and substantial board, and he is preparing to remodel and repair his barts.m.Culnitmlor.

Penetrated with a deep sense of gratitude for the benefit experienced by the INC of Thomson a 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, I voluntarily make the following statement. About four years since, after being affected with ,a violent cold, it left upon me a troublesome and severe cough. Whilst the cough continued, which was with scarcely an intermission daring this long period, language fails to tell what I have suf. feted from debility, pains in the breast and side, night sweats, difficult expectoration, oppressed breathing, and in fact 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 fears, as the purulent matter discharged was frequently streaked with blood. During this tittle I was under the treatment of *erase phySicians,and took many of those preps ratierns recommended as serviceable in the cases of others, but without relief t and 1 at length con cluded that a cure in my case was hopeless. But how agreeably chunged is now my opinions I have used for about three weeks Thomson's Com , pound Syrup of Tar. By the -use of one bottlemy cough hasheen relieved and my system reinvigo rated, sad by continuing the use of it up to this time, l atn satisfied that my complaint is entirely removed and eradicated, R.

I neither went to bed or slept-legularly for nearly two weeks, biting campelloTto set up, with myjeg supported on a chair. About' this time my son brought home with him from Cincinnati market one of your circulars, which had been thrown is to the wagon. I reedit, and knowing some of the signers to the of lb. ewe of Mr. . Brooks, and believing from my ktrerlodfle of their characters that they, would not lOW their names for the purpose of palming an imposition upon • the public, I concluded to try what effect it would have upon me. On the 20th of August I proem red the first bottle, commenced taking it accord ing to directions, and in four hours the pain ,wee so much relieved that I fell asleep and enjoyed that greatest of blessings, a few hours repose. I con tinued using it until the 28th of August, when I found myself so much better that Iwent %An, cloned to your Agent, Mr. Danenhonr,with whom I made arrangements to take 20 bottles, provided he would guarantee to curs me.

On the 30 of December 1 again called ea Mr. Danenhower. I then pronounced myself well and offered to give him a Certificate to that 'Sect, which I promised to send him in a few days. A few days thereafter, however, while killing hogs, I hurt the same leg badly, in consequence of which I postponed giving the prettified Certin cote, wishing thoroughly to test the permanency of the cure. I now used nothing but the nasal simple remedies for fre.h wounds. and found my flesh perfeetly healthy. and in the usual time for such rases my leg healed.
