FATENING SWINE.

While hogs are fatting, little or none of
The wash from the kitchen should be given
them. Their drink should be fair water,
which they relish better than any other
drink, and ofwhich they will drink good
deal when they are fed only on corn or
stiff dough
To prevent measles and other disorders
in hogs, while they are fatting, and to in
crease their health and appetite, dose or
two Of birthstone, or antimony gwen them
in their dough; is useful and should not be
neglected.
Some change of food may be advisable
in every stage Of their existence, for their
appetite. But while they are fatting, lax
ative food in general should be avoided,
as these animals are seldom known to suf-
fer from costiveness, especially when they
are full fed, but often from the contrary
disorder. Ifthey are costive little rye
will help them.
In feeding, steady care should be taken
that not one meal should be missed or mis-
timed, and their water Should never be for
gotten. They should always have as
much food as they will eat up clean; but
never more than that quantity, lest they
defile it and it be wasted. A little at a
time, and often is good rule.
If their skins be skurvy, or inclined to
|mangincss, little oil poured upon their
backs will cause it to come off. And
some say small mess Of rye now and
then, as change in their food, is good
against these md other disorders.
Ifthe issues in the forelegs should hap
pen to get stopped, every attempt to fat
ten them would be in vain. These, there
fore, should be watched.and if found to be
stopped, they should be rubbed Open with
a corn cob.
Rubbing and currying their hides very
frequently is ofadvantagc to keep up per-
spiration. 1t is grateful to the animals,
rs well as conductive to their health and
growth. A proper scrubbing post IN the
middle of their pen will not be amiss; and
during The whole time oftheir fatting they
should have plenty of litter. They will
lie tie more diy and warm, and it will be
more than paid for by the increase of ma
nurc:
When hogs are killed, single one
should not be left to live alone in the pen
1t will be apt to pine too much after its
companions. And in cold weather it will
suffer for want Of lodging SO warm as il
has been accustomed to.
The fat pork should be plentifully salt
ed with the best and strongest clean salt.
1t will take three pccks for barrel The
pork should be kept continually under the
pickle; for it be exposed ever SO little to
the air, it will become rusty and unpalata-
bic.

HoUsEWIFERY:

To the m,ddling class oflife there Is no
female accomplishment more valuable
than housewifery. BY that class is it suf-
ficiently ptiaed ss an accomplishment, or
wisely inculcated as branch Of education?
II is feared not Few girls are regular
ly initiated into the various household du-
ties yet to all girls, the knowledge Of
them is essential, since, as wives, daukh-
lers, or sisters, all will probably have house
holds to superintend. How extensive the
mischiefs caused by ignorance of house,
wifery, we every day hear and see pain
full instances. The misery endured by
the helpless, untaught individual, ih feel.
ing her ignorance, and seeing the varied
form Of evil that ignorance produces, must
be most severe. Let not mothers wilful-
ly condemn their daughters to sorrow, dis
grace, and error. from which it is not 80
easy 10 rescue them.
The duties Of fheusewifery being gcner-
ally of an active and desolutory nature,
are usually very agreeable in the per-
formance to active and variety Loving
young people they will therefore be
cheerfully attempted and pursued, and

THE ADVOCATE. A
FEMALE BANDITTI.


the following account of band of rob-
bers, directed in their atrocities by two
highly accomplished" females. The
story wants plausibility, unless one of
those females should prove TO be more cat
home" in pantaloons than peticoats. But
TO the story: it us under date of Breslau.
Two Italian ladies arrived here twelve
month ago, one of whom stated herself to
be Countess. They lived in a most
splendid manner, kept their carriage and
their suit Of domestics was very numer-
Gus. They were highly accomplished,
and several persons Of rank visited their
house. Their manners appeared ex-
tremely genteel, and although It was re-
marked that the general tenor of their
conduct did not evince a greater share Of
caprice than unusally appertains to the
fair sex, considerable surprise was excited
among their friends in observing that
continual change of servants was taking
place. Scarcely any one retained his sit
uation more than two months, and yet no
complaints were heard among them they
invariably left the town, and if they re-
turned, az it happened in several lnstan-
ces, they were readmitted into the family.
One of these persons kind of major de
mo, or head steward, formed an exception
tothis general rule of dismission. His
principal employment seemed to consist
in proceeding to different towns were it
was said that these ladies possessed prop
erty, and in collecting rents. He gener-
ally LEFT the town at the commencement of
every month, and was often absent about
n week. Returning from his last journey,
he was met by gentleman in the streets
of Breslau, who iancying that he recog-
nized in his pereson a robber who had
Stripped him ofevery valuable article he
possessed, gave information to a magis-
trate, and the steward was instantly sent
to prison. During his examination cer-
tain facts came to light, which causing
much suspicion, a promise was made OF
obtaining pardon, provided he would re-
veal the whole truth. He made full
confession, and stated that he belonged
to an organized band Of robbers, 80 in
humber, and that the whole Of their pro-
ceedincs were directed by two Italian fe-
males. All the servants belonged to the
gang, and thus the apparent Omissions
were easily accounted for. Forty-one
highway robberies had been committed
by the band, in which they had carried off
booty sufficiently great to enable the fe-
males to live in such splendor. Several
murders had also been perpetrated where
the attacked party had defended them
selves. The most exact regulations had
been made respecting the general con-
duct and moves the banditti were to pur-
sue. One chief, four subalterns and the
rest privates, formed the band, and the
headquarters were established in the man
sion of the Italian females, who directed
the whole. These latter have been con-
veyed to prison, as also the whole suite OF
domestics. The examination of these
wretches is now proceeding
