the merits and benevolent objects Of this work
our readers will be able to form an opinion
from the following introductory address Of the
Editor:l ,:a
The subject Of African slavery has as.
sumed degree Of Importance that de.
mands the attention Of every citizen Of
the United States. The question Of ex-
tending and perpetuating it, has been so
critically examined, and so ably discussed
of late, that powerful excitement has
been produced, even from Maine to
New Orleans, and from the shores Of the
Atlantic to the savage wilds Of the west.
The principles and maxims adopted by
those sages who laid the foundation for
this great and nourishing Empire, are
beginning to develop themselves more
fully to the view of:the American peo-
pie, and to attract the admiration of mil
lions Of the human race. Thousands
are daily becoming more and more en-
lightened, the prejudice Of education IS
vanishing before the luminous orb Of
truth, and the gloom Of superstition is
partially dispelled by the effulgent rays
of reason and christian philosophy

the tube OF the stamen to the head of the
corn, where they are collected and null
tiplied into a heap Of black corrupted
matter; as proof of which, every such
single smutty head, upon nice survey,
is found to abound with little living
creatures. $50
This l take to be more rational hy-
pothesis for if such smuttiness were
produced from the air, is it to be pre-
sumed that it would partially strike those
heads only which grow from one root,
when promiscuously interspersed with
heads proceeding from other roots !?
Wherefor apprehend it may justly be
recommended to all good husbandmen
to be careful in making strong pickle
for their seed wheat, and to skim off and
cast away all the corn which floats, as
the sure means of preserving it from
smut; but let them be cautious not TO
let it stand too long in their picking
tubs, before the swimming corn be taken
loft; for il it is permitted to stand long,
the hollow or concave grains will imbibc
the water, and subside With the sound
corn. AS have. gone 80 far will also
give you the picking receipt, in hopes it
may be Of utility to the public which is
the principal motive ofthis trouble given

The Receihf-Take as much dung hill
or rotten water which dis,ills from a
|dunghill, as will make your quantity of
corn swim; put therein as much salt,
with pound of pulverized ni,re, COM
monty called salt petre, or in lieu there
of two pounds of copperas, as willcause
II to bear an egg; steep your corn twelve
hours; after being skinned Of the light
corn as above, strain it out, and dry it
with Stacked lime or dry turf ashes, and
SOW it; but be careful TO SOW it the next
day, or the day following: for if wet
weather happens, and it be kept four or
FIVE days out of the ground, the corn
|peels and will not grow--as the pickle
decreases it may be augmented by add
ing more water and salt, sc. until alltbe
seed intended to be sowed, be picked
Upon this receipt ! would remark,
that as, ! presume, the use Of the pickle
is to obtain denser body to float the
grains Of wheat, l do not see the object
OF adding the saltpetre and dunghill
water. They may, however, have a
good effect in qaickening the vegetation.
I hope some Of our farmers will make
the examinations and experiments here
mentioned and communicate the result
to you; particularly whether all the
grain proceeding from the same root is
smutty; which is main fact in this
theory.
