The Dairy.-The practice of the
Dutch in Holland, and of the Germans
in Pennsylvania, of cooling their milk
Immediately after it is drawn from the
COW, is calculated to abridge the labor
ofthe dairy and toimprove its products.
During the hot weather of summer,
milk becomes lobbered in "a hours af
ter II has been drawn and before the
whole Of the cream has risen to the
surface, after achich no more cream ri
ses. By reducing the temperature,
nearly all his cream rises in "a hours,
and the lobbering ofthe milk consider
ably retarded. In Pennsylvania, milk
houses of brick or stone, built over
springs, are common. In these the
milk is kept in a temperature of so to
80 degrees; although the exterior heat
may be 80. When springs are not
convenient, milk cellars are construct
ed under ground, and water to reduce
and keep down the temperature, suppl.
ed by pumps. In Holland, whore
springs do not abound, every dairy is
provided with water-tight pit, termed
hoet6ack, built Of brick or stone; they
are about six feet in length, three in
breadth, and two in depth.-These are
filled with water by pump, which is
generally seen at one end, and the
fresh drawn milk, in brass pitchers
made for the purpose, deposited in it
for two hours and frequently stirred.
lhls cooling process is found of great
advantage in causing the cream to sep
arate rapidly and abundantly from the
milk. The milk is then strained, pla.
ced in shallow pans, and remains in
the milk cellar, which adjoins, and is
sunk few feet below the hoelback,
where 1t remains for "a hours, and is
then SKINNED. Caltipator.

NEW & Co.
The poor mans sins glaring,
In the face Of the gospel warning;
He's caught in the fact OF an overt act.
Buying greens on a Sunday morning
The rich mans sins are under
The rose of wealth and station,
And escape the sight of the children Of light,
Who are wise in their generation.
The rich man has cellar,
And ready butler by him
The poor man must steer for his pint OF beer
Where the saint can't choose but spy him.
The rich man has his kitchen
And a cook to dress his dinner;
But the poor who would roast, TO the BAKER
must post,
And thus become sinner.
The rich mans open windows
Hide the concerts Of the quality;
The poor can but share cracked fiddle in
the air,
Which offends all sound morality.
The rich man lives invisible,
In the midst of his gay society;
But the poor mans delight is a sore in the sight
And stencil in the nose fpiety.

THE FAIRY's BURIAL

Where shall our sister rest
Where shall we bury her 2
To the graves silent breast
Soon we must hurry her
Gone is the beauty now
From her cold bosom
Down droops her Iiyid brow,
Like wan blossom
Not to those white lips cling
Smiles or caressesl
Dull is the rainbow wing,
Dim the bright tresses!
Death now has claimed his spoil--
Fling the pail over her
Lay we earth's lightest soil,
Wherewith TO cover her
Where down ia yonder vale
Lilies arc growing,
Mourners, the pure and pale,
Sweettears bestowing,
Morning and evening dews
Will they shed DER her;
Each night their task renews
How to dcplore her
Here let the fern grass grow,
With its green dropping
Let the narcissus blow,
Der the wave STOPPING!
Let the brook wander by.
Mournfully singing!
Let the wind murmur nigh.
Sad echoes bringing
And when the moonbeams shower,
Tender and holy,
Light on the haunted hour
Which is ours solely,
Then we will seek the spot
Where thou art sleeping,
Holding thee uuforgot
With our long weeping

DESTRUCTION OF THE MANSION AT "THE HERMITAGEn BY FIRE We learn, with sincere regret, that the splendid dwell ling house of the President of the United States, was, on Monday evening, (l3th inst about four o'clock, destroyed by fire, which is supposed to have originated OH the roof by spark from one of the chim- neys. Our informant states, that the white portion of the family (that of An drew Jackson, Jun were from home when the accident occurred, and that much of the elegant furniture was broken and in- jured in the nasty attempt to remove 1t from the house, by the servants. All the fnrni- ture in the second story Is said to be lost. We have not learned whether or not the building and its contents were insured, but hope that this may prove to be the case.

 As such societies tend to unite recreation and instruction, have always been very favorably disposed towards them, and more particularly, in place like this, where they are deprived of most other kinds of rational amusement. They have Theatre fitted up, understand, in quite neat and fanci- ful style, with several changes of scenery, &c. and particular care is to be had that every thing they perform, shall be calcula- ted to "improve the morals and adorn the heart" The undertaking should be pat ronIzed by the citizens generally, which l have no doubt. it will be, and in order to inspire confidence into the hearts of these young disciples of Thespis, inc Ladies particularly should give it their encourage ment and approximation.

IMPROVED BRICK-MAKING.

Improued Pressed Brick .uaking g-The subject of the subjoined letter is one with which we Editors cannot be supposed to be familiar. But we can and do vouch that the letter Is from very respectable source, and that its statements may be im- pli6tly relied upon.-- Nat. Intei.
 GENTLEMEN :--As your readers are all interested in every substantial improvement which takes place in our country, I have taken the liberty to send you such infor- nation as 1 possess, with respect to dis covery in the art of manufacturing brick which has been recently introduced to the notice of the public.
 A company of public-spirited individuals in the town of Mount Vernon, Ohio, have, after series of experiments, carried on for the last 3 years, finally succeeded in manufacturing the very best quality of brick from dry clay. They have a press now in operation which makes ten thousand bricks in eight hours and these of quality far superior to those made in the usual mode. By this new process the labor and hazard of drying is obviated, and the press can be worked ill all kinds of weather. The bricks are taken directly from the press to the kiln, and are, when set, ready for burning.
 It is thought by those who have careful ly examined the subject, that this new mode of manufacturing an important build ing material, has an advantage over the former process, amounting to forty per cent. We will suppose, however, that the saving to the public is only twenty-five per cent. and that there are only sixteen thousand brick houses built annually in the cities, towns, and villages of the United States. Supposing the average amount of bricks in each house to be 50,000, and the average price to be $4 per thousand. Even this would produce an annual saving ol eight hundred thousand dollars. But this Is probably less than one half the actual saving which would result to the commu- nity from general use of the machine in question.
 The circumstance which gives this inn proyement peculiar charm upon the atten- ton of the people at large, is the dirabbllii:.y durability and beauty of the building material which il brings into use. The brick have been sub- jected to all the usual tests, and are found to be capable of resisting the action of frost, water and fire to a much greater extent than those made from mortar in the usual way. Add to this, the smooth and perfect surface which they present, when laid into wall; and 1t must be admitted that little more can be desired in this branch of inl- proyement.
 1 The persons who have spent so much time and money in perfecting this highly useful machine certainly deserve we'll of the public and when the benefits resulting from their discovery shall become known, they will no doubt receive generous pat ronage. They have not, believe, yet ob- talned patent, but have taken the neces- sary steps to secure one. The names of the persons who are said to be entitled to

POLAND.-C Condemnation of the Pat- s'sots.-After the lapse of more than twelve months, the Extraordinary Tribunal at War saw, instituted for the purpose of trying the principal actors in the Polish Revolution, has at length come to final judgment. The members of the Government of the Five are all condemned to death, without excepting even the Generalissimo Slxrzy- necki, who only formed part of the Coun- cils on extraordinary occasions. The se- cond Generalissimo, Prince Michael Rad- ziwill, is not included. This indulgence is attributed to the intercession of the Court of Prussia, to which the family of the Prince is allied. Of all the members of the Gov ernment affected by this judgment, the venerable Vincent Niomojowski is the only one remaining in Poland, the others having taken refuge in foreign countries. After the publication of the judgment, the Lieu tenant General of the Kingdom, Prince Paskewitsch, had Niomojowski brought be- fore him loaded with chains, and recom- mended him to implore the clemency of the Emperor. but the noble-minded old man rejected the counsel. The Lieutenant Gen. eral, however, has demanded his pardon of the Emperor, attrlbutng the ohstinaey of Niomoiowski to mental alienation in con sequence of the suherings he had under gone during his confinement in his dun- geon. The same judgment also condemns to death all who filled public offices before the Revolution, and afterwards took part in the regency of Zakroczym. This class is very numerous, as they have included in it all the deputies IS public functionaries. The mode of execution varies according to the degree of culpability. Some are to be de- capitulated, and others are to be gibbetted, and the judges have carried their barbarity so far as to order that the execution Of the young men, who gave the first signal of the Revolution by attacking the Palace of Bel videre, shall be preceded by mutllation.

Itis much to be regretted, that whilst cur venerable and patriotic President is en- gagged far from home in the discharge of his arduous public duties, he should suffer the loss of his splendid mansion, scene to him of so many dear reminiscent ses of happy days past in the bosom of an afectionate family-the seat of such ex- tensive and elegant hospitalities--a resi- dence which was truly and emphatically the "home of the brave,n in which its owner was fondly and anxiously expecting to pass the evening of his days in tranquil lity and repose, upon his retirement from the helm of State.
 Since writing the above we are inform ed that the furniture was all saved, though some of it was injured in rescuing it from the flames and that the west wing of the building (the dining room) was not des- troyed.-.Nat. B@l.
