Parloas Matters: AN- 1 0 Alt 1.11 The following is theaddress of tht tor of the AMER WAN FARMER, 011 o pnEtSel his patrons with the first nu`mber 14th volume of that highly valuable p; • We could spin out a "long yarn" commencement of a new volume, and probe . bly should do so, were we not stoically, if not' misanthropically opposed, to all such ceremonials. The present, however, must be an exception, so far awl-a statement of some new arrangements makes it necessary. The want of Agricultural and Horticul tural Societies in this central part of the U nion has been most sensibly felt, and after doing all we could to cause their establish ment, we have endeavored to supply their place as far as lay in our power. For this purpose, we have attached 1..) the Farmer es tablishment, tin Experimental Farm, whore we shall keep every description of br PROVED 'cl43iVelilnake trials of all NEW VEGETABLES, including cereal, culinary, fruit and orna mental plants; all which, when thus proved ' to be valuable and adapted to our soil and climate, will be kept for sale. One of the objects of this fariii is the cultivasion of eve ry description of GARDEN SEEDS, to which - oUrdittistel97oapted; and - tbr - this purpose such preparation has been made by the im portation and collection of genuine kinds_ as will ensure the food quality of all we shall produce. As times and means permit, we _ shall add an extensive nursery to the esta blishment, and in the management of this department Nlekh m all attend ire to the good .ef,thkfriiit,,then to the number full well that half a •-s varieties are .worth more than. •i v ,~~t ~uudrbtl,of merely passable kinds. - 11 s; hiafarM, with this object, the Editor A i Farmer has just located himself. He - on to it full of hope and ardent with ation that his labors in the great cause of, American husbandry will result in 11111,* • good to his country, and at least a tolerable competency ts? himself. Such being the views and ekidets of the present arrangs ment, the Editor does not hesitate to ask as sistance from his numerous friends in this undertaking, in the way of contributions, of any thing they may deem valuable, either animal or vegetable, assuring them that all such shall he made to reach the coif on stock of the country, and - to',enrich it with_. • 'all the qualities the s x ,may be capable of im parting. -It is proper here to remark, that although t the Editor resides upon the farm, and be- Mows upon it constant personal attention, his duties as Editor of the armer, are at- tended to a 9 usual, and hef hopes will he with:increased practical utility—as he will 1)e ible to devote his hours of respite from 7 , 7 4 '6e labors of the field arid to the pleasing occupation of imparting to others the information gleaned from the field of experience. ' The Editor also deems it proper to say, that the seed store and agricultural agency Ibr some time established at the office of the American Farmer, have been extended and .will be continued under the personal supre intenclance of Mr. Hitchcocks, the proprie tor of the Farmer. At this establishment every thing kept or produced on the expe. timental farm, as well as all *cies neceS study obtained ifrom countries, comprising a complete assortment of seeds, will con stantly be kept for sale; and all articles ap- Aping to &mine and gardening, not kept at the store, will . be obtained through the medium of the agricultuaral agency. In our anticipations o success in this under taking, we may be deceived ;• but we great . ty - lifiritrifiat - estimate - of--menand things if they be not realized. Our experiments with hew things will not be costly—enough only to try their value and adaptation to the _elezette •he ohtained and cultivated.- -This will cost but little, and if -they prove worthless or Unsuited to the country, - the loss will be unimportant. The hulk of la. hour and expense will be bekowed upon ob. jeets of ascertained value, and on these the establishment will be dependent for support. Experiments in.- cultivation will also be !nude upon the smallest possible scale at first, so that the risk of loss will be reduced to an equally low minimum. If a rod square, under a new mode of cultivation, is Improv ed by it, we shall have the best assurance of success 'upon an acre; and if it be not im proved, we shall have sufficient warning a gainst a more extended experithent. Nire have deemed it priaper - thus_ to lay . our views and designs before our patrons, • that whatever advantages may accrue there from to them or to. ourselves might be avail • ed of.•• Ex/tract of a• letter from a highly respecta ble gentleman in Harrisburg,. to the Edi "tor eArthe Pittsburg Times, dated "MARCH Gth, 1832. A - Theft , has been a great alarm in the'ranks of the brotherhood. On the twoist ballots, the Masonic Convention now in session, gave Dallas two of a majority for Vice-Pre sided." Dallas, you know, is a high Ma son, the fraternity immediately took the a - limn, lest the hand of Masonry might be wade too visible, a nd public indignation a roused, should they not only dominate Mt.-', 'lllOllll for the ottces of Prelsident and Gov ernorpi but also that of Vice-President.— Would be too palpable an exhibition of „figaigaic charity.

We state then on good authority, that Mr. Shulze informed Gen. Burrowes, his nearest neighbor and a delegate to the late Anti-masonic State Convention, that he [Mr. S.] would not he a candidate for Gov etpor, unless nominited by the Anti-masbnic Convention; that he 'Would not even run if nominated by the sth of March convention; and that he was an Anti-mason in principle and at heart, and would run on that ground or not run at all.—Somerset Herald. RENUNCIATION. From the Maine Free Press. I, DANIEL NICKERSON, of Litchfield, ' me, do hereby publicly state that I took the two first degrees in Masonry in the Kennebunk Lodge at Hallowell, and the degree of Master Mason in the Morning Star Lodge at Litchfield. I was disappoint= ed and deceived in not finding Masonry to be what it had bc'tin represented to me_by Masons before I was admitted. I have carefully read- -William Morgan's - Rittstra-- 44ans of 31a8onry, and I hereby certify that the oaths and penalties, signs and ce remonies, are therein truly and correctly stated, according as I received them in the Lodges above named. Being convinced that Masonry Is an evil and dangerous insti tution, I have long discontinued all connex ion with it; and I hereby renounce all alle giance to, and connexion with that society. I further state that I was not inforined of the -terms or nature of the oaths, 'until they were administered to me by the Master of the Lodge, and I was 'required to repeat them after him. I was then in the Lodge. room, blindfolded, and in the first degree with a rope or cable-tow round my neck. DANIEL NICKERSON. Litchfield, Feb. 1832. The Danbury (Ct.) Recorder relates the particulars of one of the most wicked and unfeeling acts that we have had occasion'to record. As a man named Noah. Barnam was sitting by his fire side in that village, he was shot by some villian from the outside of the hoUse, and killed almost instantly— the contents of a musket, consisting of small stones and shot, taking effect in his head and breast. He. was about 58 years of age.— His own son has been arrested on suspicion of being the murderer, and circumstances appear to*tify the suspicion. Village Topics.—An Ohio paper,,,.con tains the following fearful annunciation— " The two•legged puppy who had the im - -in--escorting a. young lady froin singing school, the other evening, after she had politely informed him that she was provided with company, may- rest assured that should he repeat the 'like of feneof he shall Ire -compelled-to--breakfast the next morning on the tail of one of Simon Snyder's toughest covvsliine., mC --- wtattn - twist his hair, Mortar pestle pound him; - ~. wheels smash his bones, And leave him where they found him. SIMON OXG.A.D." A negro preacher was lately laboring with his audience for the purpose of in ducing them to look out for a better resi dence than this vale of tears. He told them that if they secured their passage to Heaven, "they would get plenty of Bacon and:greens! and. twenty-four ..drams a day!" One of his musty :listeners, wishing to test ins sin cerity,-uskedhim 'if he had ever been there, he answered yes; and_was then asked if he saw any negroes. His answer was, "You black fool, you 'spose Y , went into the kitchen." A lie London paper states that there are 116 persons now in prison in the different jails in the-United Kingdom, on conviction for smuggling, and that the wives and chil dren belonging to them, who are kept by the parish; amount to 150 in number. A lawyer boasting to an honest country man, .that a gentleman whom he had never beeno/company with more than once, had left him a legacy. "Like enough," repli ed Hodge, "but if he had' been twice in thy company I'll be hanged if he would have left thee a farthing." It is certain, that eithorwise bea,ring, or ignlnant carriage, is caught, as men take diseases, one of another: thereto e, let man take heed of thekrcompany.--Shakapeare. DOCT. S. M.
