MANURE FROM SWINE-Hosv TO
increase the 0uantit1


The dung of swine is very rich and fat
manure, and so cold as to ferment very
slowly. 1t is SO rich and oily as to be
double in value to meats dung. 1t will
render the most dry and hungry soils
exceedingly fruitful in wettish season,
as have found by experience. 1t re-
sists the i'll effect of drought and does
most service in hot country. BY its
steady and gradual supply OF rich
nourishment it is particularly adapted for
the growing of hops, pumpkins, running
beans, and every plant which has long
vines. Nothing can equal it for the
growing of potatoes: it has produced
me more than peck in a hill, on the
poorest hungry sands or rather | might
say, straw only little inpregna'ed with
the dung Of hogs has done it. This is
so strong manure, that it answers well
when mixed with a large proportion Of
earth, weeds, straw or other bibulous
substances. l. is almost incredible how
great quantity Of good manure may be
obtained, by supplying hog stye with
rubbish 10 mix with the dung. | have
heard OF forty loads of manure being
made in the year by means OF one hog
stye, and have no doubt Of its being
practicable.

PRODUCTS OF AGRICULTURE.

The amount of the product Of the well
cultivated lands Of the Eastern states,
would astonish any but those who have
been accustomed to the river bottoms on
the western rivers, or to the alluvial
lands. We can scarcely believe when
we read of them; and should not believe
it, were not the facts too we'll vouched TO
be questioned. Welatcly met with an &C.
count Of the premiums given at a massa-
chusetts meeting, some time last Au-
tumn, and few of the results are stated
below, for the qualification of the curious
in such matters. .., Mar. Intel.

IN SENATE.


The journal having been read
Mr.. Lloyd, of Maryland, rose and ad-
dressed the Chair as follows:
"Mr. President: 1t has become my
painful duty to announce to the Senate
the melancholy fact, that my much es-
teemed and distinguished colleague is
no more An attempt to excite the sym.
pathies of the Senate for loss SO great,
and so affecting, would betray q suspi-
cion of their sensibility, and would do
injustice to the memory of him, whose
loss we must all sincerely deplore
This Chamber, Sir, has been one of the
fields of his fame. You have seen him
in his strength. You have seen him the
admiration Of the Senate; the pride Of
his native state; the ornament of his
country.--He IS mOp no more. But
for his friends, and relatives, there is
consolation beyond the grave. l hum-
bly, and firmly trust, that he now repo-
ses on the bosom of his God"
Mr. King of Alabama, then rose, and
submitted the following resolve prefa.
cling it with the observation, that, altho'
the Senate and the country knew and
honored the public character Of the de
ceased, he had known him as a man, and
knew how to appreciate the loss which
they had all sustained.
Resolved unanimously, That Com
mittee be appointed to take order for
experimenting the funeral of the Hon
orable William Pinkney, which will
take place Tomorrow morning at eleven
o'clock; that the Senate will attend the
same; and that notice Of the event | Q 81

ARCTIC DISCOVERY EXPEDITION.
Letters, dated the 10th July, have been re,
ceived from the ships under captain Parry.
They were all well, at Resolution Island, Hud
sons Bay, had met with heavy icsbsrgs and
much obstruction from the ice, but had sur
mounted these obstacles, and were pursuing
their voyage up the inlet at the north OF the
bay. Of Lieutenant Franklin's expedition, it
is learned from gentleman attached thereto,
by letter dated in April last, and written from
Fort Enterprise, Lake Winter, which is in the
neighborhood ofthe Coppermine River, and
in the country occupied by the Copper Indians
or Redknifes, that the party had passed the
winter there; during which they enjoyed good
health, though they had suffered some incon-
venience from the cold, which was so intense,
even in the interior of their huts, as to freeze
rum very little below proof. The thermome-
ter suddenly fell to minus 81 deg. Fahrenheit.
The party intended to prosecute their journey
in June. They have found, from the informa-
ton of Indians, that the maps hitherto publish
ed are not to be depended upon, but Hearne's
information to be tolerably accurate. One of
the guides was boy at the time of Hearne's
journey, and accompanied the party to the sea.
