! PASTURES.

Be 30 good as, not to turn your cattle
into your pastures till they can get what
is called a g, good Bile" Hyou let them
in too carly they will tread your land in
to hotch potch !; OF, salmagundi, destroy
the sward, and " domore mischief than
little" DR.. Deape, says that the goth Of
May, is early enough for our climate, and
we believe It is quite as well, where the
farmer can afford it, to keep his working
oxen and horses to hay or other stall feed
at least till the first Of June. 1t is not
right to turn in all sorts Of cattle promis-
cuously. i" Mich kline, working oxen,
and fatting beasts should have the first
feeding of an ,inclosurc. Afterwards
sheep and horses. When the first lot is
thus fed, of, it should be shut up, and the
dung that has been dropped should be
be.beat to pieces and well scattered. AT.
serwards the second pas ter should be
treated in the same manner, and the rest
in course, feeding the wetest pasture al
ter the first, that the soil may be less
potched. $3.50. a.. 5soi -,
Something considerable is saved by
letting all sorts of grazing take their turns
in pasture. BY means Of this nearly
all the herbage produced will be eaten
fnuch Of which would otherwise be lost
Horses will eat the leavings of horned
cattle and sheep will eat some things
that both one and the other leave.
"Let the stock Of farmer be greater
or less, he should have at least four en-
closures Of pasture land, One enclosure
may be fed two weeks, and then shut vi
to grow. Each one will recruit well in
six weeks and each will have their time
to recruit. But in the latter part Of Octo.
tober, the cattle may range through all the
lots, unless some one may become toe
vet and soft. Feeding pastures in rota-
ton, is of greater advantage than some
are apt to imagine. One acre managed
according to the above directions viii
turn to better account, some say, who have
practiced it, than three acres in the com
mon way" oH ,a

NEW MODE OF PRESERVING
~ BUTTER. u
translated by a Correspondent

.H.f 1IuuoidbCu ny OoIiCbpOuuVHts t.rt
Common salt is the only substance
hitherto employed for the preservation Of
butter. Ihave made many experiments
on this subject, and the following method
appears to me preferable TO the old one,
as il preserves to the butter a more agree
ablc flavor, and better color, and rem
ders it less liable to become rancid. 4
Take one part Of loaf sugar, one part
ofsalt pctre, and two parts ofpure salt ;
mix and reduce them to a very fine pow
der. As soon as the butter is perfectly
worked Ito extract the butterInilk) work
into il one ounce of the above mixture to
each pound, and pack it Immediately, and
- closely as possible, into pots, and
smooth tho tops over carefully ; then COW
or the pots over with fine linen cloth
and tie piece ofwet parchment (or blad-
der) over the whole. After few days I
will be. found that the butter has settled
and no longer fills the pots completely
they must then be filled up, taking care
that no space be left then pour.over the
Top q small quantity Of the obave mixture
and stop the pots as tight as possible, e
exclude the atmospheric air. They shoule
not be again opened until the butter i,
wanted for use, In this manner butter
may be preserved several years hav,
had i at the opd oftwo years as fine fla
voyed ~ in the first months.

TO CORRECT DAMAGED GRAIN.

Musty grain totally unfit for use, and
which can scarcely be ground, may, it is
said, be rendered perfectly sweet and
sound by simply immersing it in boiling
water and letting it remain till the water
becomes cold. The quantity Of water
must be double to that of the grain to be
purified. The musty quality rarely PEN
etrstes through the husk or brand Of the
wheat In hot water, all the decayed or
rotten grain swims upon the surface, SC
that, the remaining wheat is sfectually
cleansed from all lpIpurieties, without a
ny material loss. 1t is afterwards to be
dried, stirring occasionally on the kiln.

CONGRESS-.

From The United Nd'es Idegrdph, way IT,
In the House. on Thursday. the bill for the
punishment of crimes in the District of Columbia
was taken up.
The question was upon the eugrossment of the
bill.
Upon this, Mr.. Hickh6s asked for the yeas
and navs; which were ordered by the House.
Mr.. h,cin, of Ohio, made few remarks; after
which,
Mr. .qlerandsr presented to the House letter
from a Committee appointed by the Citizens OF
Alexandria demonstrating against that part OF the
bill applying to the punishment OF slaves, In that
part Of the District situated South OF the Potomac
The letter, which was Of considerable length,
was read BY the clerk.
Mr.. Alexander then moved to postpone the bill
until the first Monday in December next.
Mr. Taylor objected to the postponement. on
account of the result which would ensue from the
adoption of the motion. 1t would be merely
prolongation of the evils which the bill was IN
tended TO prevent
Mr.. Powers remarked, that. as the gentleman
from Virginia. Mr.. Alexander had alluded to
the wishes of the people Of the District, and had
produced letter from Alexandria IN conhrma-
ton of those wishes, he would state that the ut.
most pains had been taken by the Committee, to
ascertain the views Of the people on the various
subjects composed in the bill. Committees had
been appointed from various parts ofthe District to
confer with the Committee; and, although, since
the bill had been published, together with the de-
bates upon it. there appeared to be no excitement;
but, on the contrary, degree of heedlessness
was apparent There had been no public meet
ings or other expressions of public opinion on
the subject. The bill was, as the gentleman
from New York (Mr. Taylor had remarked in
its present shape, a compromise. He concluded
by expressing hope that it would not be post
pcned.
Mr.. Reed, also. hoped the motion to postpone
would not prevail. He alluded to the great ex-
pense which had been suffered in erecting the
Penitentiary, which was now useless, and must
remain so until the law was passed. lie also ad-
verified to the wretched condition OF those comm
ed in the miserable little Jail Of this city lie had
been resident of the District tor the last ten
wears, during the winter season, and had heard
great anxiety expressed on the part OF the inhao-
fants. that their laws might be improved and anne
liorated. He had been urgently exhorted to press
the subject upon the House.
Mr.. WicklSs said. as gentlemen were giving
their experience on the subject OF the opinions OF
the inhabitants of this District, he had consulted
AMONG others. one Of the ablest civilians OF me
country. and it was his opinion, IN his own en-
nhatic language, it would be tar better that tne
Penitentiary should be Jlo,on up, than that TINS
bill should be enacted with its present provisions
Indeed. Mr.. w. said, there was reason to believe
Il were better the Penitentialy should be blown
up. at all events, on account OF Its unheaiuiy io'

The schr. Railway, Captain Manson, has ar
rived at New York from Curacao, having on board
as passenger Mr.. John Cryder, from Lima, via
Panama Mr.. C. left Callao on the 18th Of
March, in the schr. Dolphin, Capt. Rabbit, and
the editors Of the Gazette are indebted to him
for the following information relative to the state
Of affairs in that quarter.
Mr.. Cryder has brought dispatches for Gov
eminent.
Business at Lima was extremely dull, land prices
Of American produce but nominal For Flour
there were no offers at even 81 abarrel, on board
Some OF the new crop of Chill Wheat had arriv-
ed at Lima-the quality was excellent.
A change. twas thought, would soon take place
an the Administration. The President (Gamar-
ray had grown very unpopular
A decree has been issued that all Foreigners
should remove from the interior of Peru to the
Sea Coast, and leave the Sons Of the Country
(Hijos del Pals to the exclusive enjoyment of
the trade OF the interior. There was rumor,
that even those residing in the City of Lima
would be embraced in the decree and ordered to
Callao.
The Custom House had been removed from
Lima to Calao the day before the Dolphin left,
which would give fresh embarrassments to the
merchants.
1t was said that Commercial Treaty would
be agreed upon between Chill and Peru, by which
one country was to allow the import, duty free,
of the products of the other. This taking effec,
would destroy the -four trade from the U. States
to Peru, and be the means of supplying Chill, in
great measure, with the sugar Of Peru, which
could be had in Lima, Of the best quality, at Sc.
ven cents per ID.
Flattering accounts from the Mines of Pasco
were received in Lima the 18th of March. II
was thought that in three or four months they
would be worked with great success. For the
greater encouragement of the Mines, the govern.
ment had taken off the internal duties, or tax, on
silver, relieving them from several per cent they
formerly had to paw.
The Colombian Minister had been very urgent
for the adjustment of the claims of his Govern.
ment against Peru; but was answered with so lit.
tie satisfaction, that it was said he had determin-
ed on quitting the country. When learning OF
the arrival of the frigate Colombia, Guayaquil,
from Porto Cavello, he concluded to await her
convoy to Callao; and the Peruvian Government
were not without apprehension, that with this
additional naval force of the Colombians, they
would endeavor to obige them promptly to fulfil
the articles of the treaty.
Indirect advices had been received at Lima
from Chill, to Feb 25th. detailing some further
successes of the Constitutional party. General
Freyre, ut the head of 1000 men, was about to
march from Coquimbo to Santiago, to form a
junction with Col. upper, and attack the force
of General Prcto, about 1900 strong. This
would probably settle the contest, and leave the
country again in quiet; but it would be lone
time before business could recover from the shock
given to it, and confidence restored.
