FOREIGN NEWS.

London advices to the Oath September have been
received to New-York.
AFFAIRS OF THE EAST. Odessa dates
to the Sd September had been received
No new war event of interest had occur
red but report was in circulation there,
said to have been received from the Rus
sian H. @. that the Turks had made
sally from Schumla, carried three redoubts,
killed 5000 Russians, and captured 81
pieces of cannon. A German account
which appeared to corroborate the event,
stated that it took place on the 9th Au-
gust, and that the Russian losses were
probably exaggerated.
Accounts mentioned that the gallant
Prince IvANHoFF had died of his wounds.
The last letters from Constantinople
were Of the date of 9th August, when it
was reported that the garrisons of the
forts Of the Dardanelles had been ordered
to march for the capital; and that the
measure was considered there as some
evidence that the Sultan was of opinion
that he should certainly be necessitated
to accept the terms of Peace announced
by Russia at the opening of the cam
paign.
GREEK AFFAIRS. The supply ship
from New-York, and two French vessels
with money, supplies and gunpowder, had
arrived at Poros.
AFFAIRS OF PORTUGAL. The news of
the subjugation of MADEIRA had OCCASION
ed rejoicings in Lisbon for three days.
King MIGUEL, at last, had complied with
the requisition of the British Government
for the release of General Sir JOHN DOYLE,
and Mr.. YOU'VE, Englishmen, who had
been long imprisoned in Lisbon, on suspi-
cion of sedition. The power of the new
King appeared to be consolidated, and the
Usurpation sanctioned by large majority
of the little kingdom. In expection of at
tempts of the Emperor of Brazils to re-
store the Constitutional order of things in
the kingdom of his daughter, the large
fortresses at Lisbon were receiving an ad-
ditional armament.
Mr.. RoTHscH1LD is said to have con-

construction in Liverpool, by which a
saving of nearly three fourths of the fuel
now used will be made.

DOMESTICK NEWS.

GROWTH OF WORCESTER. Seeing a
few days since statement in newspaper
(which we have since mislaid) of the in
crease of Springfield within the last ten
years, we have been induced to look
around and see what has been the gain
in this town during the same period.
Having but little time to devote to it, our
estimate is probably imperfect we have,
however, made out list, from which it
appears that the increase of dwelling
houses in our village, within the limits Of
the first school district, has been one hun
dred and taoelUe, without including old
ones rebuilt. During the same time
there have been built two meeting.houses,
town house, an extensive brewery, a
distillery, and about fifty tenements occu-
pied as offices and mechanick's shops.
Of the dwelling-houses, upwards of fifty
have been built within. the last thirty
months. Some buildings have been COM
menced which are not included in this
estimate. Several more are contracted
for, and it is believed that more building
will be done here next summer than in
any preceding season.
There has also been considerable In
crease of houses &c. in the town not In
cluded in the above limits, particularly at
New Worcester, at Trowbridge's and
Whites Mills and at Adams Square.
Probably the increase in other sections
of the town has been about half as great
as that in the first district.

elected De Witt Clinton to the Office Of
her Governor. He lived to see abuse and
ridicule of his favourite scheme of i'm
provement changed to admiration and
applause; and even party prejudice yield
ed to his comprehensive mind, the COM
mendatiops for useful application of ex-
tensive powers that rarely fall to the praise
of an active public man. De Witt Gin
ton was married to Maria Franklin, eldest
daughter of Walter Franklin, an eminent
and opulent merchant of New York. By
this lady he was blessed with numerous
family Of children. AS citizen, useful,
active and meritorious, he was second,
probably, to no man in the United States.
In the great and growing State and city
of which he was native and resident, no
man has stamped his name, his genius
and his services, on more. monuments of
public munifcence and private utility.

FARMERS, ACCOUNTS

Eegurar accounts, says celebrated ag-
riculturist, are not so common among far
mers as they ought to be, and in this re-
respect persons employed in other profess
sions are much more attentive and correct.
The accounts of farmer, occupying even
a large estate, and consequently employ
ing great capital, are seldom deemed of
sufficient Importance to merit a share of
attention equal to that bestowed by trades
men on concern of not one twentieth
part of the value. There is certainly some
difficulty in keeping accurate accounts
respecting the profit and loss of SO uncer-
tain and complicated a business as the one
carried on by farmer, which depends SO
much on the weather, the state of mar
kets, and other circumstances not under
his control /; but the great bulk of farming
transactions is settled at the moment, that
is to say, the article is delivered, and the
money at once paid; SO that little more is
necessary than to record these properly.
In regard to expenses laid out on the farm,
an accurate account of them is perfectly
practicable, and ought to be kept by every
prudent and industrious farmer.
The advantage to be derived from re-
gular accounts, cannot be doubted. By
examining them, farmer is enabled to
ascertain the nature and the extent of the
expense he has incurred, in the various
operations of agriculture and to discover
what particular measures, or what general
system contributes to. profit, or occasions
loss. The principle Of economy may thus
be introduced into the management of a
farm and the lessening of expense effect
ed, which is every day becoming Of great
er importance, bearing a higher proportion
to the produce of the farm.
In order to facilitate the adoption of SO
useful plan as the keeping Of regular ac-
counts, it would be Of use that not only
memorandum books for the transactions
of the day, but account books were pro-
perly arranged, and divided into columns
containing every head which experience
in the business of farming may suggest,
together with broader column for gener-
al observations. The accounts of gentle
men farmers, or of the bailiffs they en-
ploy, cannot be too minute but in regard
to common farmers, the great objects are
to have them short and distinct.
1t is proper to add, that to record pc
+cuniary transactions is not the only object
to be attended to in the accounts Of a far
mer. 1t is necessary to have an annual
account ofthe live stock, and of their va
lue at the time: of the quantity of hay
consumed; of the grain in store. or in
the stack-yard; and of the implements
and other articles in which the capital is
invested. An account detailing the ex-
pense and return eff each field, according
