INDEPENDENEZ OF THE FARMER. • The merchant or manufacturer may be robbed of the reward of his labor, by changes in the „foreign or domestiC market entirely beyond his control, and may wind up a year, which he has done every thing which in telligence-and industry could do to insure success, not only without profit, but with ---an-actual diminution ofeapital. The strong arm of mechanic industry may be.enfeebled or paralyzed by the prostration of those --- manufiteturing or commercial interests to whose existence it so essentially contributes, and on whom, in turn it so essentially -de pends. But what has the intelligent and industrious farmer to fear? His capital is invested in 'the solid ground, he draws on a Itm&which from Cam immemorial has nev er failed to honour all just demands, his profits may be diminished indeed, but nev er wholly suspended: his success depends on ntrmere earthly guarantee, but on the as surance of that great and beneficent Being, • i i hat-whituttiewaTiren dureth,seed time and harvest shall not cease. - Trim Badger's Week 4 Messenger.- THE WEAVIL. It is well 'understood by all naturalists, that the winged species undergo three states —first the eggs is hatched into a worm—. next the worm exudes a sort of fluid from its surface, which hardens into a shell, en casing the animal, and constituting the chry salis state---4mi last it passes from this state during which it is maturing its wings, feet, &c. into the condition of a fly, when it "takes wings and flies away" to its business or its pleasure% Those who have been in the ha bit or keeping silk worms for their amuse ment or profit,, will have noticed these vari ous metamorphoses, which are almost as surprising as those which are related in the beautiful strains of - Crvid—t here Daphne is changed into a laurel—and here we have an vigly_and inert worm suddenly changed_inta„ a beautiful butterfly, glittering with all the hues of the rainbow, and frolicking with more than the vivacity of a child. In the silk-worm alone the fly is seldom on the wing. It lives but a few hours.-_ . sensuality, and forgets to fly. -- All the fly state is subject to thisythreefold transformation. It i true of the moth, of -e _ . "Whool their dron ollr light= ed rooms at night. It is true of the weavil whichis seen to fly from the heaps of corn in the- spring time, with bodies more - tiny, and hues more dull, as those of the smallest '• a r 3"7 they perish in the flame. This is the time - far the weevil to burst its little "cereineht," and emerge into the open air. Take an ear of corn,. (and I have mamaned every varie ty, from the rare - 60: to the gourd seed, white, red; or streaked,) and will find some grains that are pierced with holes—some that look dark, with a hole in them—and others, that have, apparently, no hole in them, because the film that covers the recep table has not fallen off: From the first,'the little winged insect has already escaped—in the two last cases,' it is still in the grain in the chrysalis state, either about to imerge from it, or not matured for its flight. Most of the grains of corn are not pierced at all. They have escaped the ravages ef the insect. The secret of all this is soon understood. While the green . eorn is yet standing upon the stalk in the autumn, the winged insect j ets its it—piercei it—and- inserts its egg., The egg remains in the softest part dale grain during the winter. The heat of spring hatches i,t 4 into the worm,_which feeds upon substance of the grain till it grows, to about the sixth ofan inch; then it becomes a chry skills; and afterwards passes from. the grain to fulfil the purPose of its production. • Let any one take an ear ofcorn: expose it to the teMperature of a room well warmed, with the present genial air-and be will witness what I have described- • - 4 NEW MACHINE „ ..

This machine is only two feet in width, and will be warranted to thresh as fast as any other machineof its size, with less horse power.

It is calculated that from 100 to 150 bushels of corn can be shelled perfectly clean; or from 150 to 200 bushels of apples be ground fine in one hour. The whole machine will not octupy mo" rb room, ttian a common fanning mill, and is so constructedthat it can be removed from_ one place to another, as may be re quired-for its different-uses ; -with very-little inconvenience. The part for shellit corn and grinding apples, can be operated by hand power. to good advantage,. and the grain threshing part will operate by hand as easy, and in as good advantage as any other machine.
