AT this season of the year, when at
tention to the pruning and grating Of
fruit trees is one of the earliest cares of
the practical farmer, we cannot confer,
we imagine, more acceptable favor on
our agricultural readers, than to put them
in possession of the most approved COM
position for The corering Of gratis, and The
surest medicament for such ,counds and IN
cisions IN the limbs ft'ees, as yleti to
themselves must iatalhbly lead TO disease
and death. The composition to which
we allude is MAsTICH, invented by w.
III. VERNON, Esq. ofthis place, and very
fully described in his valuable Treatise
on the cultivation of the Mulberry tree
and the rearing of silk worms. The ma
ture of the composition, and the method of
using it, are so perspicuously stated in
the notes to that work, that we cannot do
better than to transcribe the directions in
the authors words, without attempting to
vary what we should fail to improve.
The whole of the directions, therefore,
will be found in this paper, under our
title "the Farmer" and may be relied on
for the case and efficacy of the applica-
ton, and its peculiar adaptation to trees
in this climate, as the experience of the
author has most successfully proved.
While speaking on this subjcct-the
management of fruit trees-we are sur
prised that plant, so productive as the
Mulberry, should be but slightly attend
cd to in the farms Of this Island We
are assuredby gentlemen who are familiar
with the subject, that the trouble of rails
ing it is comparatively triaing. The soil
and climate are sufficiently propitous,
and nothing seems wanting to extensive
plantations but the stimulating example
of some substantial landholder, who will
connect with this object, the production
ofsilk. Connected with the silk-worm, and
reared for its nourishment, they would
soon repay any expense of planting, and
be the means eventually of introducing
into thi, Iolond, branch Of manufactures
OF national Importance, which in its va
1ous departments of productive industry,
would stimulate the energies of dense
opulation-invite and retain the invest
ment of capital-and 60 far to retrieve
our industry and wealth.
If any of our worthy patrons contem-
plate engaging in an undertaking of this
nature, we cannot recommend to them a
safer or more agreeable companion than
Mr.. VERNoN's book. We believe il is
conceded, on all hands, that this Treatise
of nj. De la Broussc, is the very best
manual which has appeared in Europe.
1t has been translated, abridged, and COM
pletely rc-modelled by our intelligent
townsman, and it now only needs to be
generally diffused, and faithfully studied,
to ensure to this branch of the farmers e.
economy an attention deserved by its in
trinsic merit, and which will richly repay
the notice it receives.

Georgia as furnishing evidence of the
evils OF universal sufiage. He alluded
to the clause which provides for the pun
ishment with death of such persons as
may be instrumental in circulating any
written paper melting the slaves to insur-
rection; and the one which makes the
teaching of a slave to read and write, an
offence punishable with fine and whip
ping. Shaking every allowance" said
Mr.. Peel, "ior the feeling which in
Georgia must be naturally excited by the
possession of Il slave population, Irepeat,
that do not think that we, with our e.
lection system, and without any system
of universal suffrage, would ever have
passed law which would sentence to
fine and whipping those who might have
been kind hearted enough to teach ne
gro to read No, that could never be
the case even in our West India Islands. ,
Mr.. Brougham replied to the speech OF
MIR. Peel, and in answer to his remarks
on the law Of Georgia, spoke in very re-
spectlul terms of this country. He did
not defend the statute referred to, but
could find in il not the slightest SHADOW
of an argument against universal slf-I
frage.
The London Herald states il as the
general opinion, that ifa call Of The Hou-
