THE FARMER.
A PORTRAIT.

The cultivation of the soil gives healtf
and yigor to the body, and purity and
tranquility to the mind. The human fornl
attains in the labors of the field its utmost
The full chest, the mus
cular and brawny arm, & the toil-strune
sinew, are the reward OF the husbandElan
He preserves with nature all his relas
tons. He every where contemplate
order, economr and peace and his soul
is filed with delightful harmony.
The seasons return with unerring re
gularity nothing is in vain every thing
progresses toward some end for which
it has been designed by the eternal wis
dom, and every thing attains this end,
without interference and without eontu
sion, amidst the lofty but TRANSPORTING
me8ic of the spheres. The cultivator of
the soil is indeed patriot-The habits
formed in his youth never desert his
age. The very trees and rocks among
which he has grown. up are objects OF
his affection, He loves the soil which
has re warded his labors, and he finds ms-
sic in the echo of his native hills.

duty is to be laid on The 100 square feet.
There are four or five different sizes Of
his article ordered, and the boxes of
three different sizes always contain a
different number of sheets so that eve
ry box must be broken open to ascertain
the dimensions, and this expense alone
will be more than five per cent on the
FIRST cost. In addition to this they are
of very different thicknesses. If the du-
ty was $50 much per 100 pounds, or SO
much per foot on the first cost, these OBJ
iections would vanish. So as it relates
to iron, the learned secretary talks of
rolled bolt iron, paying a much higher
,luty than that which is not rolled, | pre-
sumo that neither the learned secretary,
nor any of his unjerlings, can tell what
rolled bolt iron is, and as he talks SO
much of favoring the shipping interest,
one would think he would not leave it to
a custom house officer to decide whether
iron pays Is or SO dollars per ton. 1t
appears to me that he makes many dis
tinctions where there is no difference.

Of an engineer Of merit, made for the

appears that the rise of the Allegany

yer, which is eight miles and three
quarters, rises TO It's summit at Moses
Williams 2o97 feet . ard a half inches,
and the fall in the river Potomac, from
about q quarter of a mile above the
mouth Of Savage river to its mouth, is
80 feet eight and half inches, and
from the mouth of Savage river to Fort

And believing that experience has long

measures will be taken for obtaining q

might be inserted proviso that if the
