If it be true, as has been stated to me,
from the best authority, that peck
basket OF these vines, chopped in com
mon cutting box, twice day, is good
and sufficient food for horse, with a
small portion of blades, when not at hard
work: l should not hesitate to believe
this produce to be superior to that of a
regular corn crop, on such land, which
could not be expected, to produce much
more than ten bushels to the acre. In
deed / know positively from my memo
randum book, that its produce last year,
under favorable circumstances, was but
ten bushels and half. At this rate my
seven acres and half would produce
me but seventy-eight bushels Of corn,
and about five wagon loads Of fodder.
Let US suppose heavy load of this iod-
der to be equal to seven bushels of corn,
land would not exchange it for ten, J
these seven acres and half have pro-
duced me that which is equal to IT'S
bushels of corn, in feeding cattle and
horses; and know j, would puzzle the
best farmer to produce half this quaint
ty from these seven acres and half, in
their present state. If to these advanta-
ges we add that peas are an ameliorating
crop, drawing very little from the earth,
and shading and protecting it from the
powerful influence of the sun, that their
leaves are mostly left on the soil, to en-
rich it, and that they are fine prepare
tory crop for wheat, as they may be got
off the land exactly in time to prepare it
for seeding, / think that we shall agree
that the committee have been very Judi
cious in recommending the pea culture !;
and l hope my success will induce some
Of my brother farmers, who have fields
requiring rest or shift, 10 substitute a
crop of peas for the common mode Of
sowing oats or wheat, which are exhaust
ing crops.
The Society will readily perceive the
error committed in this crop: the peas
were sown, as have stated, on the 9th,
and 9TH days of May, when they ought to
have been sown as early as the frost
would permit This circumstance and
the late dry weather evidently inj.red
them very much.
am, dear sir, very respectfully,
Your obedient humble servant,

ON PEA HAY.
DY THOMAS PINcKNEY, IN. ESQ.

by THOMAS PINCkNEY, JN Esq.
Altamont, SEPT. 9, 1916.
DEAR SIR--A committee of this So
siety was appointed during the last year,
and charged to discover and recommend
some mode of maintaining farm stock,
besides the incessant application to the
corn crib. This committee among other
substitutes and aid, recommended pea
hay, as affording a rich food for horses
and cattle, and whose culture at the same
time, was easy, and its growth beneficial
to the soil. Believing the recommends
ton to be iudicious, have adopted it,
and now take the liberty Of submitting to
the Society the result Of my first crop of
pea hay.
The last of April ploughed up an
old field which had been in corn the pre-
ccding year, stiff red clay much worn,
and of which about two acres had been
manured for corn, the preceding year.
Across this ploughing drilled in peas
with shovel plough, three feet apart,
on the 9th and 9TH Of May. I ploughed
them twice; the first time between the
LIST and Sd of June; the second time be-
tween the goth and Gath Of June; hoed
them once, the end of.June. This is all
the culture they received. On the 26th
of August, l began to cut the pea vines,
and finished the 9th, cutting half the
field, which consists of IA acres. In most
places the dry weather had injured them,
and they did not look as Aourishing as l
expected. Fourdays after cutting them,
/ turned them; putting two rows into
one, and on the sixth day / turned them
again. On the morning Of the 9th day,
/ began to haul them in, and finished the
next day; and they have produced me
,wenty-hye heavy wagon loads OF rlch'
GOOD fodder. AS this produce may DC d.,
best understood by comparison, VIII
state that had a field of corn OF twenty
two acres adjoining, of new land, only
the second crop, which had been plantee
very early, and had not suffered by the
drought; the fodder was very good, ant
was carefully saved, and produced mi
sixteen wagon loads.
I am extremely sorry I have not tn
means Of weighing a load of the pea Tod
der. but should think wagon load Q
It must weigh nearly twice as much as
load of corn blades, and the difference j
ouality is very great, Twenty-Five load
from seven acres and half in one case
and sixteen loads from twenty-five acre
{, IN the other. Less than two-thirds OF
load ofblades to the acre, and more tina
three lo9ds Of pea fodder to the acre.

Messrs. Sandersons.- noticed in
your paper of the 9Th inst. it | mistake
not, an account of man in Europe.
whose finger was cat off, and after 1t had
lain twenty minutes it was taken up by a
medical gentleman placed with such
skill to the other part OF the finger, that
it actually grew on, and was the hand
soonest finger the man had. Gentle
men, you need not travel to Europe tor
instances ofthe above description, as they
may be disputed and if they are it will
be out ofyour power to prove them DUE
one instance similar to the above, actu-
ally took place in this township, eight
wear. ago last winter. The facts are as
follows a son of Mr.. David Burnet,
6 years old. on very cold winters day,
while playing on the ice twelve rods
from the house, with an axe, cut OFT his
fore finger, and ran up to the house and
said TO his father. See here have cut
my finger off, His father took him up
in his arms and asked him where the mn
ger was. The boy said it was down Oh
the ice. His father carried him to the
ice, and there the finger lay, cold and to
all appearance lifelcss. He took it in
his hand, returned to the house and
warmed it, and then put it on the stump
ofthe finger, and wrapped it up, without
the aid of any physician or surgeon, and
did nothing but keep it warm with spir-
its the part cut off grew to the other
mart, and is now as useful to the boy as
the other fingers. The above is a real
fact, and can be attested by many living
witnesses, SAMUEL BURNETT,

CLOQUENCE.

The following is the conclusion Of a
late address from President NoTT, of
Union College, TO the Candidates for the
Baccalaureatc. Love and obedience to
Parents have, seldom been more impress
sively urged:-
81 cannot sum up all that I would
wish to say to you better than by pla-
cling the entire character Of Jesus Christ
before you as perfect model, in the i'm
ita,ion of which, will alike consist your
happiness and glory. On every i'm
poriant question, in every trying sitya-
ton, ask what would have been his opin-
ion; what his conduct; and let the ans
wer regulate your own.
"Methinks your parents, some OF
whom l see in this assembly, add their
sanction to the counsel am now deliv-
lering. Parents whom I cannot but
commend particularly to you ingenious
ness, and from their kindness and soil
citude, derived an argument to enforce
all that have said.
"You will never know, until the bit
terness of filial ingratitude shall teach
YOU, the extent Of the duty yon owl
them. On you their affections hav'
been placed; on you their treasures ex
pended.-With what tenderness the,
ministercd TO your wants in helples in
fancy; with what patience they Dor
with your indiscretions in hayward child
hood: and with what solicitude the
watched your steps in erring youth! y
care has been too severe; no sell denial
too painful; no sacrifices too great " y
would contribute to your felicity !

\ BYH s. FLEETWOOD.
o THOU. whose wisdom, power, and love,
This world, and all its creatures, prove;
The fertile field and fruitful trees,
Thrive, or decay, as thou shalt please;
And human art and toll are vain,
If thou withhold thy sun and rain -
Still may thy bounteous Providence,
All wished-all needful-good dispense.
When brumal storms have spent their power,
And STRING expandeth many flower,
May meier the frosts that fall at night,
The seeds of future harvest blight;
MAY ne'er the blushing blossom yield
To storms that devastate the feld:--
From such, and from too piercing air,
The new.shorn lamb-and Westinghouse.
In SUMNER, when thy solar ray
Is felt through all tn enfeebled day,
Mild be his genial BEAMS without
ontagion'sfo or parching drought,
And, frequent, may the full-fraught cloud
The azure arch of heaven enshroud,
That gentle moisture, temp rate heat,
A plenteous harvest may complete.
When AuTUMN's treasures spread around,
And gamers teen, and fruits abound,
Then shall the HrsBANDMAN upraise
To thee his grateful Hymn of Praises
To thee, who gavest, not in vain,
The early and the latter rain:
To thee, whose promise doth avail
Seed Time and Harvest ne'er ShaHf1L
Con OF THE SEASONS let thy care
Preside DER each revolvingy year!
May Health, fair queen Of blessings crown
Each city-and each rural town
While sweet content, and heartfelt joy
This Land of Freedom shall employ

Till Time-and Seasons-change no more.

COLUMBIAN COLLEGE.

Some account of the progress of this
institution, SO interesting to the COM
munity in general, and to this district in
particular, it is believed will not be UNI
acceptable. The beautiful site on which
the college is located, commanding an
extensive prospect the cities OF WASH
ington, Alexandria, and Georgetown,
Fort Washington, and the Potnmac as
far as Mount Vernon, Is emlnently cal
culated to elevate the mind of the student,
and aid the human intellect in its efforts
to embrace the whole circle in which it
is destined to revolve. Commensurate
with its object, are the plans which the
founders of this institution have devised
for its future prosperity; and it Is conii-
IDENTITY believed, its operations will be
commenced upon the most liberal prin-
ciples, and on scale that will entitle it
to rank among the most respectable
seminaries of learning in America.
Agreeably TO the provisions of its
charter, the Trustees assembled at the
College, on College Hill, on Monday,
the 5th of March, and resolved, unani-
mously, That the act of Congress, en-
titled GAN act to incorporate the Co.
lumbar College in the District of Co.
lumbia," approved February 9, 1921, be
received as the charter of this institution.
The Rev. Obadiah II. Brozvn, was
then elected President of the Board of
Trustees, Enoch Reynolds, Esq. Sccre-
tary, and the Rev. Luther Rice, Trea-
surer.
The board has since been actively en-
gagged in concerning measures for bring
ing the College into operation at as ear
ly day as practicable, The College
ediice is nearly completed, and calcu-
lated for the comfortable accommodation
Of 100 students. Two dwelling houses
are now in state Of forwardness, and
will be finished in the course of the pre-
sent season, for the residence of profess
sors. The trustees have resolved TO
open the College for the instruction oil
students in the various branches of lite
nature and science, ON the second We'd
nesday in January next; to be divided
into four classes, each Of one years du.
ration, agreeably to the general plan oil
Colleges in the United States; at the
clone of which, graduates will bc entitled
TO the first degree i'll the arts.
At a subsequent meeting the Board
of Trustees, for the purpose OF eiecting
the faculty.
The Rev. William Slaughter, ofPhila-
delphia, ID. d. was unanimously elected
President of the Columbian College.
The Rev. Ira Chace, and Mr. .dlpa
Woods, were unanimously elected Pro-
!essors.
The annual commandments are in
tended to be held on the third Wednes-
days of December, when the degrees
will be conferred and diplomas granted.
A committee, appointed for that pur-
pose, it is expected will shortly publish
an address to the public on the subject OF
opening the College, and communicate
such Information as may be interesting
to those who may be induced to patronize
the establishment, and avail themselves,
ION behalf of their children and wards, oil
the advantages which it may afford.

Mr.. John Morelto Mr.. Charles 7homh-
S1R-I send you small key of bene,
or bene-seed, which you will please pre-
sent to your society for their inspection.
This seed makes oil equal in quality to
Florence, and some say preferable
Some say one hundred weight Of seed
will produce ninety pounds Of oil, others
say less; be that as it will, it certainly
makes very fine oil, and produces amaz-
ingly. If it is put to the trial, care
should be taken to have the press we'll
cleaned, so as to leave no tincture from
what may have been already pressed; in
my opinion, this is an article of conse-
quence, and l believe it will grow in
Philadelphia. The way to sow it is in
holes shout three feet asunder, dropping
in each hole about ten grains; when it
comes up, thin it to three or four OF the
most promising the seeds will appear
in pods about September, and should
when full grown, and before dry, be
gathered in. The method is as follows :
As soon as you perceive about three
fourths, or four-ftths, OF the pods rise OIL
the stalk, and the lower pods begin to
loose their seeds, it is then time to take
it in; for after that, as much will fall Out
Of the bottom pods each day as can rper
at the top. You take sharp Ratchet
bill, or some such weapon, and with i
cut off the stock twelve or eighteen
inches below any of the seed, holding thu
! sock with the left hand, and when cut
second person receives it, keeping it up
right, till he has his load; for ifyou tur
it elownwards, the ripe seed will fall GU
Of the pods. You may Immediately car
~ it into barn, and set it upright on
close floor, till you perceive all the pod
are fully dry and open; (you may, ifyo
choose, leave it in the field, which mus
be the case, if large quantity is plan
ed,) then thresh it, and run it through
, proper sieve, and it is fit for use.
We are quite unacquainted with tn
, method Of expressing the oil, but we bt
, lieve if it is designed for table use, nj
] thing should be done to the seed, as
, might give it an ill-taste. The light'
, and drier the soil is, in which it isplan
ed, the better,

THE CONSTITUTION.
DZIZ.ZZ/Zz1---..

1t is now ascertained what Articles Of
Amendment have been ratified by The people,.
The aggregate of the votes on the several Ar
ticles, are given in preceding column. Five
OF the Articles, some of them the most,impor
tant OF all, are rejected. Those which are
ratified, and are now part Of the Constitution.
we have copied at length.
The Articles rejected, are the FIRST. second.
fifth, ninth, and tenth. The first and fifth
are rejected by large majorities. The former
proposed some alterations in the provisions of
the Third Article of the Bill of Rights; and
the latter contained new system Of repre-
sentation, connected, with the existing pro-
visions Slightly modiied,) relating to the
Senate. The decision Of the people upon
these two Articles, furnishes, we think, no ey-
idence of their precise opinions on the several
subjects. The first was opposed by those who
think the original provisions of the Bill Of
Rights wise and salutary, as we'll as by those
who maintain that there ought to be no pro-
vision on the subject of supporting publick
worship. In this part of the country. such
was the case to remarkable extent. To
assert, therefore, as some do. that the result
shows she hostility Of the people to the exist.
