LINING SEED WHEAT.

A respectable correspondent informs us
that unsIacked lime has been found to an.
swer an excellent purpose, in preparing
wheat for seed. This gentleman states
that he put about four or five pounds of
quick lime into a sufficient quantity of
water TO soak one bushel of wheat, which
he sowed last spring, then added the
wheat, and permitted it to remain about
twelve hours.-The lime by Stacking
raised the temperature of the water to
blood-heat and the wheat became soft and
apparently par-boiled. On sowing it,
however, 1t sprouted much sooner than
usual, flourished remarkably, and produc-
ed an excellent crop, entirely free from
any appearance of smut.-The above is
probably the least expensive, and most eff
ficacious mode of preparing wheat for
seed, that has yet been discovered.

TO FARMERS.

The practice of sowing wheat on a
clover sod, with one ploughing, has been
much recommended both in England and
the United States as being attended with
complete success in raising good crops,
and also in improving the lands, but some
farmers in trying the experiment, have
failed altogether, by ploughing too shallow.
by which the grass and weeds ahead
cboak up the wheat--Let not this be a
encouragement; but rather try it again in
proper manner. Turn down the sod,
whether it be clover, timothy, or herd
grass, with good plough and a strong
team, SO, deep as completely to prevent
their growing to the injury of the crop.
The field may be broken up in the eighth
month, the manure spread on Immediate
lY, and well narrowed inland then 10
proper season cross ploughed lightly, and
sown about bushel TO the acre.
BY this management the wheat grows
we'll in the fall and generally produces a
crop Of clean grain at harvest.-Note,
the more grass is turned down, the better,
provided it be well covered.

wards they heard him again, and soon saw
him return. The countenance of the poor
Dog was yisibly altered; an air OF joy
seemed TO animate him, and his gestures
seemed to indicate that his search had not
been In vain.
I" / am sure he has found the child !"
exclaimed the Indian. But whether dead
or alive, was at present the cruel state
of suspense. The Indian then followed
his dog, who led him 10 the foot of large
tree, where lay the child in an enfeebled
state, nearly approaching death.
He took ii tenderIy ia his arms and
hastily carried it to his disconsolate pa
rents.
Happily, the father and mother were
in some measure prepared to receive their
child. Their JOY was SO great that it was
more than quarter Of an hour before
they could express their gratitude to the
kind restorer of their child. Words can-
not express the affecting scene. After
they had bathed the face of the child with
their tears, they threw themselves on the
neck of the Indian, whose heart in uDi-
son melted with theirs. Their gratitude
was then extended to the Dog-they ca
ressed him with indispensable delight, as
the animal, who, by means of his sagacity,
had found their beloved offspring; and
conceiving that like the rest of the group,
he must now stand in need of refreshment,
a plentiful repast was prepared for him,
after which he and his master pursued
their journey, and the company, mutually
pleased at the happy event, returned to
their respective habitations, highly de-
lighted with the kind Indian and bis won-
derful Dog.

MANNER OF EVENING PRAYER IN SPAIN.
There is nothing with which foreigner,
unacquainted with the religious customs
OF Spaiu, is SO struck, as the performance
of the Oracines, or prayers at sunset.
The reflection, that at the same moment,
or rather an unbroken succession of
moments, there is general suspension
of all work and conversation, and that
national act Of alteration in silence, is
taking place throughout the kingdom,
renders it truly awful and imposing.
Dallas, 10 his travels 10 Spain, has
given us the following picture Of the
Oracines, as offered on the Almeda, or
public walk in Cadiz:
"The Sun has been some time appa-
rently enlarging the circumference Of his
orb; his brilliant disk had gradually re-
ceived its evening tinge of red, and DOW
his last ray darted upward from the reful-
gent bosom of ocean, streaking with gold
the expanded edge that yelled his face. 1t
was the signal for the Oracines, or eve
ming prayer, which being repeated by the
tolling Of the bell of every Church, the
whole city, the whole kingdom, address.
ed aprayer and thanksgiving 10 the AL
mighty being, who had brought the day to
a close. The crowd upon the Almeda,
whose busy hum and footsteps mingled
their bruit upon the ear, like the fall of
waters, where the course of gentle
streamiet is broken by some impeding
rock, now stood still, and there prevailed,
as if by magic, a sudden profound and
awful silence. At the sound Of the bell,
the carriages stopped; all who were sit.
ting arose; those who were walking re-
manned in the position 10 which this mo-
ment overlook them: all conversation was
and every one repeated an in
ward prayer. The. sign Of the cross,
which closed the prayer Of each, was the
signal for the breaking of this holy ST.
lence; every one gave salutation to
those who surrounded him, known or IN,
known, and then the stream flowed on, I'M
altered in its course"

EXTRACT,

From the second part Of Mr.. Cobbet's
"Year's Residence" IN America Just
published.
There are very few really ignorant
men in America of native growth. Eve
~ farmer is more or less of reader.
There is no br0gue, no provincial dialect.
No class like that which the French call
peasantry, and which degrading appella-
ton the miscreant spawn Of the funds have,
of late years, applied to the whole mass
Of the most useful people in England,
those who do the work and fight the bat
ties. And, as the meo who would natu-
rally form yOur acquaintance, they, L
know from experience, are as kind, frank
and sensible men as are on the general run,
to be found in England, even with the
power of selection. They are all we'll
informed; modest without shyness; all
ways free TO communicate what they
know, and never ashamed that they have
yet to learn. You never hear them boast
of their possessions, and you never hear
them complaining Of their wants. They
have all been readers from their
youth up; and there are few.subjects up
on which they cannot converse with yous
whether of political or scientific nature.
At any rate, they always hear with pa
thence. do not know that l ever heard
native American interrupt another man
while he was speaking. This sedateness
and coolnesS, the deliberate manner in
which they say and do every thing, and
the siowafss and reserue with which they
Lexpress their assent these are very
wrongly estimated, when they are taken
for marks Of 'vant of feeling. 1t must

WELSH INDIANS.

Lieut.. Roberts's account of his interview
with chief Of the Welsh Indians;
translated by Mr.. Thomas Roberts,
from the Greal, printed in 1905.
In the year 1901, being at the city of
Washington, in America, ! happened to be
at a hotel, smoking my cigar, according
to the custom of the country and there
was young lad, a native OF Wales, a
waiter in the house, and because he had
dispIeased me, by bringing me glass Of
brandy and water warm, instead of cold,
I said TO him loosely, 10 Welsh, "Tll
give thee good beating"
There happened to be at the time in
the same room one of the secondary Iudi-
an Chiefs, who on my pronouncing those
words, rose up in great hurry, stretch
ing forth his hand, at the same time asking
me, in the ancient British tongue, Is that
thy language ?" l answered in the affir-
native, shaking hands at the same time !;
and the chief said it was likewise his Ian
guage, and the language of his father and
mother, and of his nation. said to him,
so is it the language of my father and
mother, and also of my country. Upon
this the Indian began to inquire from
whence l came, and Ireplied from Wales,
but he had never heard a word about such
place. I explained, that Wales was a
principally in kingdom called England.
He had heard of England, and of the
English, but never Of such a place as
Wales.
asked him if there we're any traditions
amongst them, whence their ancestors had
come. He said, there were; and that
they had come from far distant country,
very far in the east, and from over the
great waters. I conversed with him 10
Welsh and English he knew better
Welsh than did; and, as | asked him
how they came to retain their language so
well, from mixing with the other Indians
he answered, that they had a law, or an
established custom, 10 their country, for
bidding any to teach their children an-
other language until they they had attain
ed the age Of twelve years; aud after that
age they were at liberty to learn any Ian
guage they pleased. | asked him if he
would like to go to England and Wales ;
he replied, that he had not the least incli-
nation TO leave his native country; and
that he would sooner live 10 a wigwam than
in palace. He had ornamented his IA
ked arms with bracelets, on his head were
placed ostrich feathers.
was astonished and greatly amazed
when saw and heard such a man, who
had painted his face Of a yellowish red,
and such an appearance, speaking the an
cient British language as tluently as il he
had been born and brought up in the vi
entity of Snowden. His hair was shaw.
ed, excepting round the crown Of his
head, and there it was very long, and plat.
ted; and it was on the crown Of his head
he had placed the ostrich feathers, which
I mentioned before, TO ornament himself.

The situation of those Indians is about
800 miles southwest of Philadelphia, ac-
cording to his statement; and they are
called in general the Asguaws, or the As
gnaw nations
The chief conrted my society aston
ishingly, seeing that We were descended
from the same people. He used TO call
upon me almost every day, and take me
10 the woods to show me the virtue of the
various herbs that grew there, and which
were best to cure or remedy all sorts OF
fevers; for neither he nor his kindred
were acquainted with compound medicine.
JOSEPH ROBERTS,
Formerly eff Hawarden, Flintshire North Wales
Among the great variety Of accounts
OF the Welsh Indians formerly collected,
some Of them point out a tribe of them
agreeing in situation with the above; but
the main body Of this people is represent
ed as situated at very great distance
from this as we conceive detached par
ty; their country being on the upper
branches of the Missouri, couing from
the south west; and generally denominat-
ed Padoucus, and White Padoucas, in
large maps, but in some early maps they
are called Motocautes. They are also
called the White Indians and Civilized
Indians, 10 the United States. The Indi-
ans about the Illinois Territory call them
the Mud Indians. on account of their
coming to the trading posts down the Mis-
souri,, at the seasons when the river is
flooded by reason of there being not suffi-
cient water for the passage of boats in the
upper branches, from whence they come,
at other times.

USEFUL RECIPES.
Fom a Charleston Paper.

Mr.. EDITOR have been for many
years subject to painful Rheumatism ;
so much so, that whenever l caught cold,
it most generally settled in my shoulders,
knees aud ankles, aud became very pain
full. Last spring got wet in shower,
and took cold, which settled in my shoul.
der. For ten days carried my arm in a
sling, aud pain deprived me of sleep.
Medicine was of no avail, until / saw 10
your paper recipe for the rheumatism.
tried it, and found the desired effect.
In twelve hours l threw off my sling, and
was free from pain, which has not visited
me since. Although this treatment may
not suit all kinds of rheumatism, it may
be useful to some; and if, by republishius
the receipt, you can relieve one poor be-
ing from the pain which experienced for
ten days, you will do him service never
TO be forgotten.
The folowing is the recipe.-Tske
one ounce of gum camphor, and put it in-
to one quart of spirits; put therein as
much of the bark Of sassafras root as the
liquor will cover; let it stand 10 or IL
hours, and it is ready for use.-Take
half common wine glass full on going
to bed, and the same as soon you can in
the morning, if possible an hour or two
before breakfast, and even again at eleven
O'Clock, should the rheumatism be very
painful, taking care to rub the parts affect
ed we'll with the same medicine. 1t being
an innocent medicine, the dose may be in.
creased to a wine glass full or more il
thought to be necessary. The effect is q
violent perspiration consequently. tht
patient should not be exposed TO cold.
I'VE republish the above, not merely t.
make more extensively known the afore'
said remedy, but to add, that it is, at any
rate, recipe not to be trifled with, any
one inclined to try it, would do well, first
to consult physician.-Ev. Post.

Cure for the Clumsy, or sore throat.

Take one pint of new milk, direct from
a red con-, and one gill of water, put them
into a new red earthen pot, and take a
piece of rusty steel, the size of small bar,
aud heat it hot enough to boil the milk so
as to make it foam or ferment; then take
the liquid and rinse the throat with it, as
warm as the patient can bear it, to the
throat--two or three hours if necessary.
This will, in every instance cure the
quinsy, or sore throat, if applied early In
the disorder, and the person will never be
subject to have the disorder again.
