1qye Sjlk Worm and he Mulberry Trees. =-The possible contingency of rupture with France, will naturally turn the attention of our farmers, more than 1t yet has been, to the cultivation of the mulberry. Many plantations of this tree exist in New England, and in some towns tho silk manufactory has been carried on by indi- viduals in domestic way. and especially by some of our industrious Yankee girls, with great profit. During one of our late fairs in this city, man wove from the @cocoons, an excellent strong silk vest. The subject also has been agitated in Con- gross, where Judge Spencer's report some years since enters into the matter in detail. Many essays also have been published on the cultivation and manufacture of silk in the United States, the whole amount of which statistical information eoes=enpelltt,- sively to establish the facfeshat our country (espeeially the south,) IS Admirably adapt ed for the growth of the r1tlberry tree, and that the raising of the worms, and the fabrl- cation are such easy aud simp! processes, that the business may bo purs ued to any extent the moment we feel disposed to un- dertake 1t in good earnest.-yY. 7.

We have read it attentively, and strange as 1t may appear, we cannot discover what the learned orator would be doing. Sometimes We think he wouldn't. But the gentleman from Ohio has the floor, and says

Re-snion of Flesh afler complete sepma- tsoa.--The Ohseryator Medco contains a curious, and what it afIirms 10 be well au- thenticated case of reunion of the nose, after complete separation. The patient, q woman of the town, had the whole of the soft part of the nose bitten of. in quarrel by man. She was immediately carried before police, when the nose was dressed. in three hours afterwards, Dr. Carlizze, who happened to come in, saw tie patient, ant entreated that search might be made for the lost nose. This was done, and two and half hours afterwards, the mutilated portion was found, constructed, and all covered with filth. The Doctor, however, washed the parts clean, and applied the piece, putting ia few points of sutue.- The dressings were not removed before the 7th day, when the witnesses observed, with great satisfaction, that complete union had taken place. In thirty-seven days, the ci- catrix was perfectly cured. The aspect of the nose, however, was most disagreabIe, from the color of it's tip, which presented lIvld unhealthy appearance. A solution of nitrate Of silver (moderately strong) was applied to this part, and after the fall of the eschaf, Tn five days the nose resumed its natural color.--Boston Medical Journal.

No print that we see is more inveterate against Judge White than the Boston Cou- rier. We presume the Courier will short- ly come out for Mir. Van Buren. In that event the great "Democratic p party will have another able Federal ally. We have no doubt the Courier is strongly attached to the "old faith" from the profession of which, We believe, 1t has never wayered.- Seeing the success of Messrs. Buchanan, Fancy and others, the Courier would be doing injustice 10 itself not to stand by its Friends: besides the Courier says Federal Connecticut has declared for Van Buren. .1lr. GaS.

JUDGE WHITES SPEECH ON EXE
 CUTIVE PATRONAGE.

One of the Alabama Jackson papers praises the speech of Judge White on Ex- eeutive Patronage, pronounces 1t to be a true Republican Speech, and says t con- tains nothing but what the party and the President will cordially agree in! What a mistake this poor fellow has committed ]! That speech has made federalist, and a nullifier, and bank man, and an aristocrat, and disorganizer, and crazy man--of the Judge. And t produced the Gwin letter too! If the editor will look at the daets, he will find that the speech of the Judge was made on the 2lst of February, and the Gwin letter dated the 23d.
 We advise the said editor to look over the speech again and if he cannot discov- CT mountains of banlism, and federalism, and ratification in 1t, we are very sure that he IS no Van Buren man.---U. s. 1eIc- graph.
