Pea Nuts.-We were presented last
week with a sample of peanuts, ruised
10 the garden of Mr.. John A. Waterbury,
af this village, the present season.
They are the first, we believe, ever
raised in this place; and, notwithstand-
ing the dryness of the season, they seem
to have attained a full growth, and 10
equal, in every respect, those usually
brought iDto the market. Nuts of this
description usually sell here for So or
50: so per bushel; and, as their cuI-
ture is as easy and simple as that of the
potato, we should suppose it would be
an object for farmers and others to de-
vote small portion of land to their
growth. Saratoga Sentinel.

Productive Land.-The Philadelphia
Democratic Press states, thai a gentle
man in the vicinity of that city has this
year made, from less than half an acre
Of dry, gravelly land, two hundred and
sixty gallons of wine; and from the
same land has sold twelve hundred
pounds of grapes, besides what have
been used in his family, and are yet on
the vines. The price of the grapes
varied from six to twenty FIVE cents a
Pouod. Averaging The grapes at twelve
and half cents, and the wine at two
dollars gallon, this less than half an
acre Of land has produced at least six
hundred and seventy dollars this year.

CoNnREssIoNAL ELEcTIoN.-Tbv EIecuou
for Representatives TO Congress takes place,
in this State, on the sixth Of next mouth. In
the Springfield journal we see the name of !.
c. Bates, Esq. of Northampton, as candi
date. His election would be creditable 10
that district and to the State. There are few
men in Congress, who unite in greater degree
the requisites Of good practical sense, varied
requirements, integrity, and commanding
eloquence. We do not learn whether the
present incumbent has declined. In ESSEX
North a caucus has been called to nominate
an opponent to J. Varnum, the very respecta-
BILE Representative from that district. 1t is
understood that Caleb Gushing, of Newbury-
port, a gentleman Of fine talents, will be the
candidate. We know not what their relative
chances Of success may be. In Franklin, s.
C. Allen, the present member, and George
Grennel, jr. Of Greenfield, are the candidates.
We do not yet hear Of any serious opposition
