THOMAS JEFFERsoN's OPINION OF FAR
mERs.-"Those who labor in the earth"
b. early declared, ''are the chosen people
of God, if ever he had chosen people,
whose breasts he has made his peculiar de-
posite, for substantial aud genuine virtue.
1t is the focus in which he keeps alive
tina, sacred fire, which otherwise might es-
cape from The surface of the earth. Cor
ruption of morals in The mas Of cullivalors,
is a phenomenon in which no age nor na-
tion has found an example. 1t is the
mark set on those, who not looking up TO
Heaven, to their own soil and industry, as
does the husbandman, for their subsistence,
depend on The casualties aud caprice of
customers. Dependence begels subser-
vience aud venali,y, sufiocares the germ
of virtue, and prepares fiji ltools for the de-
signs of ambition. Thus The natural pro-
gress and consequence Of the arts, has
sometimes, perhaps, been retarded by ac-
cidental circumstances;but generally speak
ing, the proportion which the aggregate of
other citizens, bear in any state to that OF
its husbandmen, is The proportion of It's un-
sound to its healthy parts, and Is as good as
a barometer whereby 10 measure Its
degree of corruprion."

Soaking Corn for Horses..-A gentle
man who resides in Baltimore county, aud
who is one OF the most successful farmers
in that vicinity, informed US IA few days
since, that he saved al least one third ofhIs
corn by the manner in which he fed it Out
to his horses. His plan is islhis;-He has
two hogsheads placed in his cellar where
they are secure from freezing. These he
first fills with corn in The ear, then puts in
sufficient quantity of water To cover the
corn. After the ears have heen thorough
ly soaked, he commences feeding, giving
his horses but two thirds the usual quanli-
ty allowed. As one of these hosshcads be
comes empty. he refills it; and by the
time the other is cmply.tiIe one last filled,
is sufficiently soaked for use. In this way,
the cobs become 50 sollenet that the horses
consume the whole Of them. aud they are
thus made to add fully Que third to his
stock Offeed. He assures us that his hor
ses cal the cobs with avidity, keep in or
der, and are just as competent to perform
plantation labor as when they consume
the grain alone. The success ofour inlor-
mant, should stimulate his agricultural
brethren to follow his example, as the la
Dor ofpreparalionis is nothing compared with
the great saving effected.

II is an old saying, that thing which is
worth doin;., is worth doing well, and we
do no, see why il should not apply to the
writing of advertisements in plain and
inteIligihlr ma 7ner as to other things. In
the first place. if an advertisement is
badly ,ritIen. it mus almost inevitably
be badly printed; az there is little leisure
in daily office for the critical exposition
of the context, and the obvious appearance
of word, will be apt to he taken for the
real one. In the second place. there is "A
great loss of time tu the hand, Of the office.
who are sometimes bothered over single
word long enough to finish the piece. A
little care will suffice to write an adver'
,isment in plain hand, and then it will be
sure to gain the good will of the compost,
tor, and its prospect Of Il fair setting will
be greatly enhanced.-Nortok Br"con.
