what.a different course to our usual cus-
tom: 1--WE commenced by running round
our corn, when young; with what we call
a bull tongue. following with large com
mon shovel, filling the furrow, and apins
the dirt to The corn; this completed the irsI
ploughing. which left ridge between the
rows not ploushed, rs matter of course.
The second ploughing. and last for part OF
our crop, was done with large common SHOW
els, we ploue ehed the rows out and out. in
consequence Of a fine crop, both Of weeds
and grass which has nearly taken the corn;
this was done when The ground was in 6nc
order Some two or three weeks had clap
sed, before we returned to the corn; by this
lime General Green had marched in his
forces, posted his senlinels, and took com
plete possession of the field; we however
watched his movements very closely, o. cv-
cry opportunity we were preparing for bat

from the advantage he had taken of the
ground that we would not be able to rout him

Frost; we however, after much preparation

YASKEIsM.-A young Yankee farmer
happened, some six months back, to see
a paragraph in'one Of the New York pa
peIs. relative TO the arrival and sale Of
lot of foreign canary birds, and immedi-
ate!y began to calculate if he could not
make a good spec in the same business
lie came TO the conclusion that he could
undersell the foreign article, and make mo-
ney by il. He therefore procured some
dozens Of canary birds, set them to breed
ing, and rs sooh as their young ones were
fit for market. he made multitude Of very
handsome small cages, put a bird into
each cage, and packed the whole on It
small aud most curiously constructed wa
eon, which was also the work Of his own
hands, and drove off to New York, where
he arrived in due time, aud asked four dol
lars for each cage and bird. From some
persons he got what he asked: from others
something less; but in no case less than
three dollars for each bird aud cage; and
having about three hundred birds, he must
have received about Sll00, which,. after
deducting the liberal allowance of 500
for expenses and lnss Of time, left him
