PROFITS OF FARMING.

The returns of most crops strike one
sometimes with nishment, and would,
if taken as a test, lead to most delusive cx-
pectations. A grain of seed sometimes
returns one hundred fold; and this being
sown second year, would perhaps give
ten thousand fold, and SO Oh in geometri-
cal ratio. Twenty bushels of potatoes
planted, will frequently yield four hun
drcd bushels, that is twenty for one. A
bushcl OF wheat sown, often returns thir-
ty bushels. A peck Of lndian-corn plant
ed, will often produce sixty bushels, that
Is two hundred and forty for one. A
proud OF carrotsecd or of rula bagga, W hich
costs dollar, will produce six or nine
hundred bushels of roots worth one hun
dred dollars. The proceeds in this case
seem enormous,and yet they are constantly
realized, and often, it must be ad mit,cd, at
comparatively small expense. But no
confident conclusions Of the profit Of far
ming are to be drawn from such results as
these. SO many circumstances of abate-
mcnt enter into the cost, that if these are
the only elements given in the case, the
solution Of the problem would give the
most egregi ously erroneous and deceptive
results.
We are not to look TO agriculture for
any extraordinary or sudden gains, as, for
example, like drawing the capital prize in
a lottery where there are two blanks to
prize; like some successful East Indian
voyage; where the sale ofthe cargo yields
a net profit of one hundred per cent; or
like some sudden rise in the stocks, or
some monopolized article Of produce,
where shrcwd calculation draws its
thousands or twenty thousands, into our
poe kets. But that skill, experience, as
sIduity, and industry will, in agriculture,
yield fair, and, to a reasonable mind, an
ample compensation, there are two many
and reiterated proofs to admit even OF u

The President of the United States:
DEAR SIR: The undersigned were appointed
by the citizens and the City Council of Gin
cinnati, and by many ofthe surviving soldiers
of the late war, to apply to the widow and
family of our distinguished fellow-citizen; the
late President of the United States, for per-
mission to remove his remains from the city
of Washington to the State of Ohio for inter-
ment. They have made the application d.
rected, and have received permission to per-
form that sacred trust. They have now the
honor of reporting to you their arrival in this
city, and of asking your appreciation of the
measure contemplated. and your cooperation
in carrying it into effect.
We are fully, aware of the high estimate
you placed on the talents and virtues of our
| iamented friend and fellow-citizen, the late
Chief Magistrate of the Union, whose friend
ship and confidence you possessed many years.
We saw the tear fall from your eye and min
gle with the tears of the nation when the in-
scrutable will of Heaven removed him from
us.
Knowing these things, we approach you
with confidence, well assured that you will
Justly appreciate our motive for undertaking
| the mournful duty we have been deputed TO
perform and that the same kind feeling which
has marked your course through life will
prompt YOU on this occasion to afford US your
countenance, and, if necessary, your cooper.
alton.
/ If il meet your appreciation, the commit
ltee will do themselves the honor of waiting
upon you at the Presidents House, at any
hour you may please to designate.
With high respect. we are, your friends and
! fellow-ctizens.
