SUGAR BEET.—Mr. Josiah Lee, an enterprising farmer
of this county, was induced to make some experiments on
this article, and last year raised 140 bushels from less than
one-eighth of an acre. His cows are fed on the beet alone,
without any grain, and the butter produced is of the most
superior character. We hope the farmers of Berks will think
of these things, and attend to a matter of so much impor-
tance. Seed may be procured in this town, and the best is
easily cultivated.—Berks and Schuylkill Journal.
CHURCH EXTENSION.—A handsome new church is about
to be built near the extensive works of Messrs. Garnett and
Horsfalls, Low Moor, near Clitheroe, where there is a dense
population, and no place of worship. This will make the
fourth new church built within the parliamentary borough,
within these few years.

REMARKABLE LONGEVITY.—The village of Pawtuxet,
with a population of between 700 and 800, contains 95 per-
sons, or more than 11 percent. of the whole population over
60 years of age ; of these 52 are between 60 and 70 ; 34 be-
tween 70 and 80 ; 7 between 80 and 90 ; and 2 over 90. Ten
of these are revolutionary pensioners, and several others are
claimants but have not yet had their claims allowed.—Ameri-
can paper.

CATeneiLLARS.—The berry trees in the neighbourhopd
of Barnsley, have become infested with caterpillars, and in
many instances whole trees are stripped of their leaves by
this destructive insect ; our correspondent informs us on the
authority of Mr. Wilkinson, florist, &c. that by dredging
helebore powder over the trees' it will completely destroy
them, as will also black pepper, which is about half the price
of the former. Gardeners willdo well to pay attention to
this.—Leeds latelligencer.
