The Life Of Patrick Henry.

PROPOSAL
BY James Webster, of PhiIadrlphia, for
publ ,shing by Sub>criptiVn,
THE LIFE OF
The late Patrick Henry,
Containing many of his Speeches, &c.
Embellished with Likeness: BY VIM.
Writ, Esq. of Richmond, (Va.)
Extract from the Port Folio for August,
1915.
" 1t is not without sentiment Of sin
cere qualification that we witness, IN tie
following proposal, arrangements making
by competent hand, to do justice to the
character of one Of the most worthy and
distinguished OF our countrymen. As q
Statesman, civilian, al crater and pa.
triot, Patrick Henry was entitled TO stand
in the foremost rank: Nor do his merits
claim al inferior station as firm, an ho-
nest, and an honorable man. He was
one OF those worthless OH whose purity
suspicion could never fix a stain.
Ii ma ure did much for Mr.. Henry's
character while living, accident has Uot
been waiting IN its favors to bis pss,hu'
nous fame for to have found such BIZ
lographer as Mr.. Writ, so competent as
q writer, and so peculiarly well qualified
IN every moral relation. Is not the least
fortunate incident in his history.
" In Mr.. Wirt's Life of Patrick Hen
Try we are irresistably inpelIed to expect
much the materials being excellent, and
in great abundance, and the writer able
and devoted to his subject. Nor do ~e
think that the public will run any risk OF
beins disappointed BY bearing US compa.
ny in our high expectations. We hope,
and, indeed, have no doubt that the
work will receive liberal patronage"
CONDITIONS.

Observations on the Culture Of Grain.
The Cultivation Of grain has for some years
past been much neglected and we have de-
pended almost wholly upon raising Indian
corn for breadstuff But the peculiarties OF
the seasons for the two last years, having been
favourable TO the production Of plentiful crops
Of grain, the general opinion is at preseRt for
extending the culture of the several species OF
grain in preference TO that Of Indian Corn.
We ought not, however, Judge which O the
several articles used for breadstuff can be
raised TO the best advantage, merely from
the produce Of particular year, but OF Sc
ries of years, and of variety Of soils. by
comparing the expence OF cuItvatInS corn,
wheat, &c. with their crops, we may be ena-
bled TO decide which yields the greatest prot
its. Land, when planted with Corn, requires
about double the labour in tilins it to what
il does when sown in grain. We may esii-
mate the medium crop Of Corn al twenty four
bushels per acre-Wheat, at 10 bushels-Rye
l3-and barley at 90 bushels. 1t should be
remembered that for corn, the land must be
we'll MANFRED, otherwise the harvest will be
fight. Grain is commonly sown on land that
has been planted the preceding year, and
rarelv manured. Ifcorn were attempted to
be raised under similar treatment Of the
ground, it would depreciate in the harvest,
probably one fourth, or more below what we
have stated il at in the preceding estimation
We DO not know what would be the quantity
of grain per acre, if il were sown on ground
titled in the like manner as for Corn, never
having seen the experimenttried.
We do not wish to be understood as adyo-
eating the opinion that the value Of the pro-
duct of grain on an eqnal extent of land is
equal to that of corn-but that sthe farm
yields greatest profits in proportion to The ex-
pense and Iabour Of cultvatins It. Let i be
remembered Corn impoyerishes aud ex-
hausts the land, while grain enriches il par.
tcularIy If sown Ga the same field for several
successive years and The stubble ploughed IN
Immediately after reaping. Nor DO We wish
10 convey on idea that the use Of corn a.
family article, can conveniently be dispensed
