This rule must be understood with reference
to the case under consideration in which the pro-
vocation was sufficient to extenuats the crimes to
manslaughter provided the party was thereby de-
prived of delberation. A case may arise where
there is a want of deberation arising from pro-
vocation insufficient in law TO extenuate the offence
to manslaughter, as in case of a mere tresspass
upon lands or goods or provoking words without
personal violence When such a case arises its de-
cison will not be affected by what is here given as

therefore much more careful superintend-
ence in its management; and being much
more liable to get out of repair. Another
matter of importance is to avoid all need
less expense in the construction of farm
ing implements and buildings. The first
object of every farmer, who depends on
his farm for his subsistence should be util-
ity. The great point to be aimed at in
the construction of any and every ma
chine, utensil, building or fixture should
be to accomplish the objects and purposes
for which it is designed. In most cases
taste and fancy may be consulted in con-
sistency with cheapness and utility; but
where they interfere with each other, eve
ry thing should be sacrificed to the prop
er objects of the work. Shall farmer
for example paint his barn In general
We have no doubt it is matter of sound
economy. The next question is, of what
color shall it be? White is the most
neat; white furnishes the most agreeable
contrast with green. But white is least
durable; white is most liable to be defac-
ed !; white does not contrast in general
very agreeably with the manure heaps
usually in its vicinity. Red lead or yell
low ochre are much cheaper, more last
ing, and not so easily defaced. Sc like
wise in regard to implements. A farmer
can always afford to pay literally for
good materials and careful and faithful
workmanship; but he can afford to pay
nothing for any ornamental apparatus. 1t
is but recently that we saw two very fine
ploughs brought into competition. The
construction of each was excellent. In
point of strength of workmanship, and
durability, and ease of handling, and pow
er required for draft, there perhaps could
be no choice between them; or if any,
the preference would belong to the plough
of cheaper construction. The price of
one of these ploughs was seventeen dol
lars; of the other six dollars seventv-6ve
cents and all this difference of ten dol
lars and twenty-five cents between the
two was chargeable to the extraordinary
polish, skill, and beauty of workmanship
bestowed upon one of them, without a
single practical advantage excepting the
pleasure afforded to the eye. In such
needless expenses as these no farmer
should allow himself, if he is dependent
upon his farm for his support; if he is in
! debt to the amount of single dollar be.

AGRICULTURAL.
From the New England Farmer.
AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENTS.
No. |.

We spoke in a preceding paper OF ag-
ricultural experiments. We mean now
20 say something Of agricultural improve
ments. In essays for weekly journal it
is plain that no subject can be treated but
in a very partial manner. All we pro-
pose is to suggest hints, by which others
may be excited to reflection and expert
ment /; and from which they may gather
some practical rules for the amendment
and advantage OF their husbandry. We
shall aim merely 10 throw out some ore
frorn The quarry in its crude state; and
leave to others to reduce and mould and
fashion, and use il as they will.
Improvement implies making a thing
;e.er; and there is nothing which more
.oncerns our farmers there is nothing
which they could more directly or
no re- effectually advance their own inter-
est; and yet there is nothing in which
thew are more deficient; there is nothing
1t which, taken as body our farmers la.
yor so little. In saying this we mean 70
except those men Of property, who farm
for their own pleasure; and professional
men, tradesmen. mechanics, or manufac
turers, who apply some portion of the
proceeds OF their profession, trade or bu
mess to agricultural establishment, and
improvement. We speak Of those. who
are exclusively farmers; and Of this elias.
within our observation and knowledg,
there are certainly few, who make il Blu
siness 10 improve their farms; or who at
tempt and effect important, extensive, sub
aantial. and permanent betterments. Nov
lct US inquire what Improvements are de
srable; what can be done, and then wha
are the alleged reasons, and what the tru
reasons, why these improvements are nc
made. We write for common farmers i
ihis case, who depend on their farms 70
heir own and the subsistence OF thei
antilles; and our object is to inquire whs
improvements can they make, Tor whic
he farm will itself pay. We sci too hig
n value upon labor, to wish to see it or

THE FIR K E ID BIRD.
Thy cage is open'd, bird, too well love thee
To bar The sunny things Of earth from thee.
A whole broad heaven of blue lies calm above thee,
The greenwood waves beneath, and thou art free,
These slender wires shall prison thee no more;
Up, bird and mid the clouds thy thrilling music pour
Away, away, the laughing waters playing,
Break ON the fragrant shore in ripples blue,
And the green leaves unto the breeze are laying
Their shining edges, fringed with drops of dew,
And here and there wild flower lifts its head,
Refreshed with sudden life from many sunbeam
shed.
How sweet thy voice will sound for Ger yon river,
The wing of Silence like a dream is laid,
And nOught is heard save where the wood-boughs
culver,
Making rich spots Of trembling light and shade !;
Add new rapture thy wild spirit fills,
For Joy is on the breeze and morn upon the hills.
Now, like the aspen, plays the quiverng feather
Or tlIy swift pinion, bearing thee along.
Up where the morning stars once sang together,
To pour the fullness of thine own rich song;
And now thou art mirrored to my dazzled view,
A littla dusky speck amid world Of blue.
Yeti viii shade mine eye and still pursue thee,
As thou dost melt in soft ETHEREAL air,
Till bngelones, sweet bird, will bend to view thee
An lcease their hymns awhile thine own to share.
And there thou art with white clouds round thee

A q se wild spirit unto thee is given,
Ia ght minstrel of the blue celestial dome,
For thou wilt wander to yon upper heaven,
and battle thy plumage in the sunbeams' home !:
And soaring upward fom that dizzy height,
Oniree and fearless wing, be lost to human sight
Luh of the summer clouds! whilst thou art singing
Unto thy Maker thy soft matin hymn,
My own wild spirit from its temple springng,
Would freely join thee in the distance dim;
Butt can only gaze on thee and sigh,
With heart upon my lip, bright minstrel Of the sky
And yet sweet Bird bright thoughts me are given,
As many as the clustering leaves Of June,
And my young heart is like harp of Heaven,
Forever strung unto some pleasant tune;
And my soul burns with wild poetic fire,
Tmpe are my strains, and simpler still my Tyre
And now farewell the wild wind of the mountain
And the blue streams alone my strains have heard
And II Is well from the hearts deep fountain
They flow uncultured as thine own, sweet bird!
ForIny free thoughts have ever spurned control,
Since this heart held wish, and this frail form a
