Sir--The recognition of 'sthe King of the French,
by the KlDg of Great Britain, is the triumph of repub
llconlsm. here be many Who will deny this Short
sighted and projudiced, interested either as stock
jobbers or hack dplomatists, in asserting the contra
ry, these trembers the one-hand or these selfish
well paid men the other will tell you that it is no
such thing, because France is not a Republic but has
limited MonarchIcal Government But this denial
can be met by fact, nay, by thousands If facts
when are every hour transpirng, and which demon.
strae that it is Republcansm which has trIurnpbed

TO hereditary Peerage, it will soon be DESTROYED As

high, of dark copper color stout across the breast
and shoulders-wth long arms hands and fingers, and
very long feet, about IL inches lie soops little in
his carriage. his knees standing forward-hs nose is
longer than ordinary. his mouth wide and his under

OF his fore fingers just joining the first joint, coca;
stoned by the cut ota scythe, and larger one on his
elbow, occasioned by putting stone in the cart When
spoken to he has rather down look.
SANFORD took with him S73 of the subscribers
money, and has, no doubt changed his clothing, hsv-
ing left most OF his clothes behind. lie rode off one
of the wagon horses which having been reclaimed in
the neighborhood of Battletown, beyond the Blue

The Farmers Manual says, Hf you
hay is short, or you wish to SOW winter
grain after your Indian corn, or secure
your corn against the effects OF early
frosts, you may cut up your corn hills
close to the ground, in fair weather, with
"a sbarpknile or sickle, and lay two rows
into one, in small bundles, as when you
top and secure your stalks; bind your
bundles above the ears, and stack the
same day in small stacks, either upon the
borders Of your field upon an adjoining
field; you may then plough and SOW as
upou flow grounds; secure your stacks
by doubling down the tops, and binding
the heads with n p!inhl" stalk; this will
exclude the rains, which otherwise
would damage your corn. This corn will
be ripe at the usual time, without the
least dininution in its color, weight, or
value: but in the opinion Of some Of the
best farmers, who are in the steady prac-
ticc ofthis mode from choice, with an in
creased value ofthc grain. The increased
quantity s. value Of your stalk, will rich
ly pay the expense; you may in this way
bring forward the sowing Of your winter
grain, ., 3, or weeks, which will again
at harvest repay the expense of clearing
your corn field. lfyou house your corn
stalks before you husk your corn, the
pitching will be heavy, and your bundles
often break, and your places for housing
be difficult and inconvcnicnt, and often
exposed to your cattle; therefore husk
your corn onthc field, ,and empty your bas-
kcts into your cart rs you husl<, remem-
bcring to leave the husk upon the stalk, by
breaking the cob; these will again repay
your expense in feeding. The differ
cncc in the mode oihusking, will soon re-
move this, and render them equal 1t
is Of high Importance for every farmer to
know every mode of culture that will af-
ford him successful advantage in manag
ing his farm, and in this point ofvicw
this does not rank as one ofthc least.

Paused with a lifted foot, and turned his head
As ifto listen. The rejoicing bees
Nestled in throngs amid the woodbne cups

Came leaping ffom its sylvan height, and poured
Mdsic upou the pebbles,-and the winds,

From weary commerce with the hearess world,
But when felt upon my willered cheek
My mother Natures breath, and heard the trump

Sparkling like winged jewel'ry, and drank
The healthful odour Of the Towering trcc4,
And bright eyed violcts,-but most ofall,
When beheld mild slunibering innocence,
And on that young maternal brow, the glow
OF those affections which DO purify
And renovate the sou, u turned me back

AGRIcuLTUnE.-Thc cause ofagricul-
ture is essentially that Of humanity, pub
lie happiness, good morals, and religion
Whatever serves to increase the means
Of subsistence and comfort concerns hui
manity. Whatever contributes to make
the country more beautiful & more bounti-
tiful promotes both individual and public
happiness. Whatever leads men to be in
dustrious and frugal, essentially concerns
their morals Whatever increases our at
tachment to our homes, s. strengthens our
domestic affections by making our homes
comfortable aud happy, must make us
more sensible to Cells goodness. More
than this, practical agriculture must lead
man constantly more and more to study
the works Of nature and to contemplate
with wonder and gratitude the miracles
Of Divine Providence, which are present.
ed to his observation in the beautiful
progress Of the seasons and their appro-
pirate and various products. "Naturc is
Gods earliest revelation" and it is full
Of instruction. Our Saviour bade his
disciples strengthen their faith in the pro-
tecting providence of God by looking at
the birds Of the air and the flowers of the
field. The enlightened and rejecting
farmer, in surveying the products
Of his labour, the various operations in
which he is called to perform his part,
and the brute animals, who gratefully
acknowledge his care and look up to him
as the almoner of the divine bounty to
them, will find constant and powerful in
citements to think of and to honour God,
the great husbandman, whose rain en-
riches, whose sun warns the earth; and
who in his GODDESS has placed man in.
vineyard that he may till and dress it.
