Maine CaAls Sbew.--On Wedne sday last, very
hanasome exhibition Of fcattle took place at Hall
lowell before the Maine Agricultural Society and
alarge collection Of people from various parts Of
the state. The specimens merited much ap-
PROBATION /; they consisted Of horses, bulls, OK
en-, steers, cows, swine. sheep 6o. with some
articles of dome stic manufacture and impemen nts
ofhusbandry. A more particular account will
be given Of the exhibition and of the premiums
awarded. when the several committees shall
have published their reports.
An address was delivered to the society and
the public by JoHy MERNek. Esq. on the ad-
vaptagcs of agriculture and the system most
favourable to territory circumstanced like
our own. that is with small population e an ex-
teps,ve tract Of uncutiyated country. This adj
dress was full Of sound nhaxim., clothed in Ian
guage of classical purity and delivered with pc
suliarly graceful elocuton copy was requested
by the society for the press.
As this was the first exhibition Of the kind in
this state. great expectation was not excited ;
but encouragement was given by the interest
with which this was attended. that future exhi-
bitions will be still more worthy of commeuda-
tion, and that the objects the society, in infus
ing just and practical principles Of farming and a
spirit Of ambition and improvement among the
cultivators Of the soil, will be fully accomplish
I'd.

WOODEN SOdLED SHOES.

Mr. Costs, of Arlington, IN . letter to
che Editor, Observes Wooden Soal-
ed Shoes are the very best shoes for la
borers that [ ever met with. but more
especially for negroes.-They keep the
feet warm and d'y in ditching, and in all
kinds of labor to he perfor ned out of
doors in winter. and are saving in ex-
pence OF fully 80 per cent. My people
are all shod in this way, and themselves
declare, that they never were SO COM
Portable in their feet before, while my
leather bill from 8 100, has been reduc.
cd to scarce 5 20.
You form the soal, after the appear.
ance of the leather scal and heal, the
wool abou, half, or three fourths OF an
inch in thickness-around the upper
cd e is cut rabbit. into which is nailed
('vith ordinary sized tacks) the upper
leither--Not particle of thread is need
cd; except TO ciose the two parts of up
per leather. Every man may be his
own shocmake and man would put
together a dozen pair day. In slippe-
~ weather, small plates OF iron are nail
ed around the toes and heels, and frost
nails driven in them which also protect
ths- soal from wear. Gum, ash, or dog
wood, are best for the soals. and about
two sets of soals will last the Writer
The feet are never cold, or wet. a,,d
hence will he remedied those chronic
pains or evil, 10 which iaborcrs are SUBJ.
ject, from exposure to cold and wet.
For any purpose but a foot race, these
are the very best shoes. and | doubt
whether even Sir Humphrey Davy has
made more useful discovery in the
last twenty years.

We understand, that Bankrupt sys.
TEN, OF a new cast, has been digested Ivy
a JudicIl character whose experience has
been not little, and will shortly be SUBJ
mitted to the investigation of the friends
Of such measure.
This Bill proposes
i. To. incorporate the bankrupt sys-
TEN into The Judicial system Of the coun-
Try; to which it properly belongs.
III. To get rid .oi the machinery of
commissioners and assignees, and sub
stitute ior them
/. A Register of Bankruptcy, who
shall be The Common assignee in each dis

debror shall be openly investigated.

2. Ia enforce an equal distribution Of
the bankrupl's Effects. 4
Bankruptcy is provided fs, as distins
guished into voluntary and involuntary.
The rights of a voluntary bankrupt,
III the cases specified, are extended to III
persons; the liability of Al involuntary
bankrupt confined to merchants and ira.
d,rs. but an involuntary bankrupt may
entit!e himself to the rights oi the other,
by the subsequent fairness OF his conduct.
II then conclude, with confirmation
of all the discharges under State laws up
to the passage oi the act, wherever they
have been obtained without fraud or con-
cealment.
The system now before Congress pro-
vides only for the cases oil involuntary
bankruptcy.
Those who are unfavorab!e to a total
discharge of the bankrupt will have Only
TO alter one line, in order to substitute a
Letter Of Licence or exemption from suit
