Itutt we, ! how-, miiakr to kw fe
. i r a
fur rners in our New England and Middle
States, it stands us in band to aee that
they pay attention to improvements in ag
riculture and the creation of new soils, so
that they may not be tempted to run away
to the rich praries of the West, and leave
those engaged in other occupations to eat
their own productions. For my own part,
as a showman, I should be sadly puzzled
if I was forc ed to rat " stalled monkeys,''
" Fejce mermaids,"' of ' wooly horses,"
mid I have no doubt that n.anv others
would be bothered to digest iheir own pro
ductions. I will merely instance the black
smith, the shoemaker, the clergyman, the
dentist, the saddler, the carpenter, ana tho
stone
mason. Surely the blacksmith
would be obliged to pick "his teeth with
oue of his own nail rods, after having
niaJe a breakfast of horse shoe9 or ox
chains ; the shoemaker, after dining on
solo leather and black wax, would hope it
was his last and his ull ; the clergyman,
who could digest nothing but bis own ser
mons, would consider it a terrible sentence
to be lorced to " eat his words ;'' the car
penter would declare it was the hardest
deal he ever tat;( he was obliged to swal
low deal beards for his lunch ! the dnitist
would starve to death " in spite of his
teeth,'' it he had nothing but teeth tor his
food ; the saddler would rather be a horse,
and ware l!.e saddle en the outside, than
to find a place for a tlir-vp in his interior
and thejstone mason would'soon beat work
building hi own sepulchre, if he saw that
ho must gnnw nothing but grauite, till
" dust returned to dust
It seems quite necessary, therefore, that
we should keep the farmers among us.and
as this is only to be done by letting them
have land worth tiling, it is highly im
pnrtnnt that they should know bow to
uuhe such land.
When I visited England, six years ago,
the first thing that struck me was the
beauty and fertility' of the soil. Every
farm appeared a gs-rim. In fact, Fog
'and is a garden. F.very inch of laud is
cultivated. Even Ihe sides of railroads,
up to within a few feet of the iron track,
are made to produce wheat, b-ley, or
potatoes. The beautiful line of hedges,
w hich se gladden the eye of an American,
en uncultivated lands. The very biil tops
nre made fertile to their sum-nil ; the
swuinps are drained, ditched and bliud
ditched, and every ft cf t anh that the
labor and ingenuity ol man cuo render cul
tivatable, is made lo send forth its green
st -Iks nn I golden harvests.
It U important that the American, and
especially tl.e.New-England farmer.ijhould
kno hi.w this is all dona. 1 have dined
and lived wiih English farmers ; 1 have
associated with them: I have frequently
obtained their friendship, and sometimes
their conBJence ; and, by hook and by

ever-living fertility of their soil ; and now,
Connecticut fwmer, in the fullness of my
hesit, which happens lit this time to be
overflowing with the ' milk of human
kir.ducss,'' I will fre1y, without the hope
of fee or reward, in. part to you this graed

Notice Fite.. We have been paying
visits to many persons in this towu and
the country adjacent, weekly, for nearly
two years and cno: f them have return
ed our calls, promptly, thus keeping up a
a valued acquaintance. There are several
however, who buve never paid us for ihese
visits, nor sent an equivalent. We are not
over-nice on mere mutter of etiquette, but
must insist tlnttliey ere baldly doing the
lair thing in ihe matter; and utiles they
improve in this brauch oi business polite

JOn our firsl page is home article
which we commend to the earnest regard
of our readers. It con'ains truth. There

tain a newspaper which in its appearance
und profit to them they can show with
pride against every Country paper in the
Sia'e. We have procured the services cf
an Editor who is as capable of conducting
a press 8S any gentleman now connected
with it. He shall be paid for his services
and as the Editor and Printer are sup
ported, thay wilt exeit themselves for your
benefit. Think of it,ye men ol Lewisburg,

(which is accidentally mislaid,) highly

tended lo oiler a similar proposition. He
stated that there were precedents which
could be adduced in its favor. He procee
ded to make a brief and eloquent speech in
favor of its adoption; which was, on being
put to vote, carried.
The committee was appointed by the

It was then proposed that the Senate go
into eiecutive session.
Mr. Clay supported the motion, but inti
mated that he should not lead on any sub

The House of Representatives, has been
very busy for another whole day in doing
nothing, although some of the members
seem to be quite anxious now to e'eela
Speaker, if it is only to sign the drafts on
ihe Treasury for their pay and mileage.
It is evident from ihe past, thst tUmost
of them ran only be influenced in the per
formance ol their duty through some such
motive as this, and if the landladies of
Washington will scold terribly about their
board bills, we may probably expect
Speaker before long. Tha brokers are
said to be shaving some of them heavily,
and the pecket being a tcuder spot with
politicians, we think we may promise our 1
readers a Speaker and the President's
Messnge before the end oi the week.
All propositions that might have lead to
an election were voted down yesterday,
though tho impression seemed to be last
evening that some of them will be adopted
and tried lo-day. It is evident that there
is no use of continuing lo ballot without
some arrangement being trade among par
tics, out of the house, and if the members
have auy desire for an organization, they
should set in th? matter ui once.
Tho following was the result of I he" four
bailots cast ycterday, making fifty-one
