A FEW WORDS ABOUT FURS,
Some interesting facts relative to the
fur trade of the Hudson Bay Company are
related in the correspondence of the New
Hompthire Stateamait,—The lure and
peltriea of the company comprise the fol.
lowing varieties: Vox of several colors;
black and brown bear; sable, otter, lynx,
beaver, raccoon, mink, musquash, woolf,
seal, marten, squirrel, and ermine. 'rho
most important in the list is the sable, Of
which about one hundrea and twenty.five
thousand are collected by the company
annually.—ln England, the sable was al.
ways held in great estimation; a wreath
of black sable, which was presented to
Henry 1., in the early part of the eleven.h
century, by the Bishop of Lyncoln, cost
no less than £lOO, which in those day s
was an immense sum.
The Russian or Siberian sable is the most
esteemed, being softer and more silky than
the American. Russia produces about
qv/env-five thousand of them annually,
The price corresponds with the abundance
and glossy blackness of the upper coat—a
high garment not unfrequently costing
$250. The civic robes of the Lord Mayor
and Corporation of London, which, accor
ding to the municipal law and long ustgo i
must bo worn on state occasions, which
are very numerous, are trimmed with sa
ble.—Nearly nine tenths of the American
sable skins amounting to one hundred and
twenty.five tho usand annually, forwarded
by the Hudson's Bay Company, are sent
to France and Germany, where it is greatly
admired for ladies' wear.
Of marten skins the company gathered
in one year fourteen thousand, and the
French free traders in Canada exported
thirty thousand three hunered and twenty
five of them in the same year.
The most valuable among the varieties
of the fox are the black or silver—a single
skin often commanding at wholesale $2OO,
and even $5OO. About one thousand of
them are collected annually by the cont.
pany, and nearly all go to Russia and Chi
na, for linings and trimmings to dresses.
The lur of the sea otter is used for simi.
far purposes, and for caps, collars, and
robes. About fifteen or twenty thousand
are collected annually, and will go to Chi..
na, where a single skin fetches $75, except
a few which go to Russia, Turkey, and
Greece.
Lynx and lynx cat are now out of lash
ion in Europe, and are dyed and prepared
for exportation to this country. Wolf skins
go to Russia for sleigh robes. Beaver
skins are now used in the Army for militii
,ry caps and pistol holsters. The brown
beaver, which was in great demand in Eu.
rope Efty years ego, a single akin often
commanding fifty guineas, now seldom
brings five. The pole-cat skin is 'inch ad
mired for its beauty, but it is hardly ever
used, on account of its bad odor. Squirrel
is used in immense quantities all over Eu
rope, and the Hudson's Bay Company ex.
port vast numbers to the Continent. It is
extensively and successfully dyed in ltritta
lion of Russian sable. Its lightness is high
ly prized, the belly of the dark blue vari
ety bong said to weigh not more than a
pound and a half, when made into a full si
zed cloak. The Lowell Journal says ;
"The ermine has been fur more than
a thousand years associated with the lof
tiest dignity of the British throne and
bench. In the language of heraldry, this
fur is styled minever. The coronation
robes of all the royal family are ermine,
studded all over with small turfs of wool of
the black Astrachan lamb, inserted in
every square inch of the garment. With
these Hack spots inserted, the ermine is
styled 'powdered minever.' Royalty can
only wear the minever powdered all over.
The peers and peeresses wear ermine
'powdered' in rows, the number of
which indicate the rank of the wear
er. On all state occasions, the royal
judges array themselves ir. robes of scar
let and pure ermine, the peers in scarlet
robes decked with gold lace, and the ap
propriate rows of ermine of bars of mm
ever; the royal family in robes of 'min ever
powdered all over."
The Siberian ermine is said to excel
the American variety, in its intense spot.
less whiteness. The Hudson's Bay Corn.
paoy trap about twenty thousand annually.
Answer to Market Woman's Puzzle.
On the first view of the question, there
does not appear to be any loss ; for tf it be
supposed that in selling five apples for two
cents, she gave three of the letter sort,
(viz. those at three for a cent) and two of
the former, (viz. those at two for a cent)
she would receive just the same money
as she bought them for; but this *will not
hold throughout the whole, for, admitting
that she sells them as above, it must be ev
ident that the latter stock would be exhaus
ted first, and consequently she must sell as
many - 'the former as remained overplus
at fir for two cents, and would therefore
lose. ft will be readily found, that when
she sold all the latter sort in the above
manner, she would have sold only eighty
of the former, for there are as many threes
in one hundred and twenty as twos in
eighty ; then the remaining forty must be
sold at five for two cents, which were bo't
at the rate of four for two cents, viz :

BRINGING SEED WHEAT PROM
THE SOUTH.
Since the advent of the midge, or weevil,
the attention of farmers has been diretced
with increased interest to all means which
to any Wise tend to promote the early matu
rity of the wheat crop. It is the opinion
of rrany intelligent. observing wheat grow
ers, that if they could get the grain to ri
pen f rein five to ten days earlier, the
midge would do it little, if any, harm. I t
is owing to its early ripening, that the Med.
iterranean wheat is so much less liable to
injury from the midge than better but la
ter varieties. II a variety of white wheat,
which yields as well, and affords as good
flour, as the Soule's, and ripens as early
as the Mediterranean, could be obtained,
it:wouln be worth thousands of dollars to
the farmers of Western New York
alone. The experiments which have
seen made in bringing seed wheat from the
South, so far as we have seen and heard.
are very encouraging. But in this case,
it is necceesary to bring the wheat every
year from the South. Its early ripening
is not owing to any inherent quality in the
variety , but rather to the fact that all wheat
repens earlier at the South; and when it
is brought north, it retains this quality the
first aeason—or rather, it has a tendency
to ripen at the same period as it did where
it was grown. Mr WORTHINGTON, of Ma
ryland, the able editor of the American
Farmer, informs us that he has been in
habit of bringing seed wheat from the more
southern States for some years, and ho
finds that it matures earlier. The only
danger to be apprehended is that it may
not be quite as hardy, end the severe win
ters at the North might be still more
likely to injure it. But we have heard of
- no complaints on this point.
Many persons doubt wether wheat
brought from the South would ripen earli
er, or even as early as that grown farther
north, and point to the fact that corn
brought from the South-west does not ri
pen as early as that grown here. Again
corn brought from the North—from Ver
mont or Canada East—ripens earlier here,
for one or two seasons, than when we
plant that which has been raised here for
some years, though of the same variety.
Again, ais said that corn raised on high
hills will ripen earl ier when planted in
the va Heys, than that raised in the valleys.
These facts do not militate against the
des that wheat brought from the South
will ripen earlier. It is true corn brought
front the South ripens later. Hut corn
does not ripen as early in the South as at
the North, while wheat ripens much ear
lier. So that if the seed retains a tendency
to ripen at the same time as it did where
grown, the corn, when planted at the North
should ripen later than the same variety
grown here, while wheat should ripen
earlier. Corn at the North does not pro.
duce at much stalk as farther south, and
it mums earlier, and when it is brought
South it retains more or leas of this char
, acter for some years.
The principle is the same in these cases-
It is further illustrated by the elect of
planting, in England, sun-flower seeds
grown in this country. The sun-flower
matures its seed earlier and better in the
dry, hot climate of America, than under
the weeping skies of the British Isles; and
when sun-flower seed grown here, is plan
' ted in England, more and better seed is
obtained the first season. On the other
hand, Windsor beans succeed better in
England tban in this country; and when
we plant seed raised there we can fre
quently obtain a fair crop, but if we plant
seed grown here it usurlly fails to produce
a crop, though we get an abundance of
haulm.
This subject is one of great interest to
farmers and we shall be thankful for any
facts which corroborate or militate against
the principle which we have endeavored
to illustrate,
HOW TO 00 TO BED.
Hall's Journal of Health in speaking
on this subject, says; " in freezing winter
time do it in a hurry, if there is no fire in
the room, and there ought not to be unless
you are an invalid. But if a person is not
in geed healh it is best to undress beside a
fire, warm and dry the feet well, draw on
the stockings again, run into a room with.
out a fire, jump into bed, bundle up with
head and ears under cover for a minute or
more untill you feel a little warmth; then
uncover your head, next draw ofl your
stockings, straighten out, turn over on
your right side and go to sleep.— If a
I sense of chilliess comes over you on get
ting into bed, it will always do you an in-
jury; and its repetition incfeases the ill ef
fects without having any tendency to
"harden" you. Nature ever abhors vio
lence. We are never shocked into good
health. Hard usage makes no garment
last longer."

HUNTINGDON WARM SPRINGS.
The Warns Springs at the base of Warrior'-
Ridge, five tildes north of Huntingdon, overlook
ing Standing Stone Creek, and environed by ro
mantic hills and woodlands, have been leased
by the former proprietor of the Learner House.
The extensive Hotel buildings, balls houses,
&c., erected at great expenco by General A. P.
Wilson, have been completed—end the groves
have been beautifully laid out and adorned.—
The Hotel parlors and chambers airy and com
fortably furnished; and the prospect, from the
verandahs for beauty, cannot be excelled.
For half a century, these Springs have been
celebrated for their medicinal qualities, and the
great nature of the waters h rheumatic and chro
nic affections. The temperature of the water
being G9i degrees, renders the bathing delight
ful and invigorating. In the surrounding woods
and mountains, game abounds, and the finest
fish are caught in Stone Creek. Persons in pur
suit or health or pleasure, will find this a most
delightful and healthful retreat; and its nearness
to the Pennsylvania Railroad, and the cheapness
of the rates charged guests, give it a decided
advantage over any other watering place in the
State.
The Proprietor has had years of experience in
the business and no pains or trouble will be spa.
