TO FARMERS.

In addition to barn manure the New England husbandman should be unwearied in collecting whatever will quicken or supp port vegetation. Lime is valuable ma nure, and highly deserving notice. Mud from ponds, or sunken grounds, common salt, with every kind of vegetable and an-
 mal substance, may be pro6tably used in compost, especially if exposed to the acc ton of swine. Changing crops is often useful. Each species of crop seems to ex- tract from the soil nutriment peculiar to it. self, SO as not to exhaust, against the de- mands of different succeeding crop. All ternate ploughing and seeding is valuable substitute for manure, and an economical method of keeping land in heart. How ever highly other grasses may be valued in other countries or States, I am satisfied that no grass with US isso enriching to the soil, or nutritious for hay or pasture, as the clover. The quality which enriches is not in the stalk or leaf of this grass, as is sometimes supposed, but in black mould collected about the roots. Whether ex- tracted from the air, by means of it's blos- sons, its broad leaf, or porous stalk, do not pretend to say. If turned in with a plough for manure, it should stand until ripe. The mature stalk and full grown leaf seem necessary to collect and deposit nutritive qualities. -
 A coat of grass left in the fall on now ing or pasture land, is equal to covering of manure. This serves the double pur- pose of enriching the soil and ofprotecting it from frosts and cold. It is like the clothing of the human body, protecting it from the cold of winter. Every blade of grass left growing in the fall, will produce twice its value the next season. Consid- cring the coldness of our climate, this sub- feet has not been sufficiently regarded.
 Deep ploughing brings up more earth for use, gives more room for the roots to grow and extend in, affords more nourish- ment and greater security against drought. The deeper the seil the more moisture lis contained in ii, and the lepgar < will re- sist the effects of heat the more easily it is moved by the hoe and harrow, and or diuarily will produce a more abundant crop. There is quality nutritiye 10 se- getaticn, which settles down below ordina- Y furrows, and which, turned up, brings strength as well ~ quality 10 the soil. have seen pumpkins and other vines grow luxuriantly on earliI out of "a cellar three feet below the surfacO.

crops, the fruit and just reward of toll and care; and prevent the pain of seeing them careiessly wasted or destroyed; and in this way tighten care, and sweeten the hours of rest.
 3. Good fences prevent unkind feelings among neighbors; and not nnfrequenily, vexatious and expensive lawsuits-the evils of which are sometimes seen and felt by the next generation.
 4. Good fences are an ornament to a farm. An extended plain-an unbroken view of lake, or an ocean, produces painful sensations while landscape, in- tcrspcrsed with hills, and meadows, and forests, and cleared fields, excites lively emotions. Such is the pleasure arising from the view of neatly and ,0eH fenced torm; associated as it always will be, with considerations of security aud pro6t-and the certainty of finding every OK. and horse, and COW, in his own pasture.

On the examination before the com hitting magistrate of the four prisoners who were arrested, on suspicion of hav- Ing been engaged or concerned in pirat- ical or other depredations, and brought to this place for trial, the testimony ap, peared sufficiently strong against three os them, as to authorize the magistrate to bind them over for their appearance at court i'll the parish of Lafourche In- terioT, iii which they claim their domi- cl. They are committed on a charge Of having robbed Frenchman who landed on Busily Island with a large Quantity of specie-was tied by those on the island, but was soon after Iibera- ted, and division of the money took place; a part of which was found in the possession of the prisoners. The specie was brought to this place, has been deposited in the bank, and will be subject to the future order of the proper tribunal.
