OF the mountain, which consists of fright
full ravines DOM which a river hurries,
and unbreken forests for miles in extent,
gives The following items in reference TO
some portions of the railroad route. Aside
from the expedition, the scenery alone will
induce thousands 10 travel this route, run

Green Mountains. The writer saws:
Within the distance of five miles, there
are nine viaducts, formed by immense a
butments and arches of rustic stone work.
which are from forty 70 sixty feet span,
and from thirty-five to seventy feet in
height. The blocks OF slone for the walls
Of the abutments and arches are gneiss.
which, being composed Of the same consti-
tuent minerals, is as understandable and

have been hammered TO q sufficiently

the solid ledge, in every instance. The
blocks of stone are laid in hydraulic &C.

The next and most extensive work is at
the summit, where deep cut is being made
through the crest of the Green Mountain
ange, nearly half mile in length; and
from 20 to nearly 10 feet in depth and
most Of it is through solid rock, which is
removed by blasting. To facilitate the ope-
ration, the drilling is executed both by
horse power, and a steam engine. There
is also machine for excavating sand and
gravel, which is worked by steam en-

The sugar beet may be cultivated as ca

we consider its value as u material for the
production of sugar, cannot but consider
It's introduction among US, as forming Il
new and an suspicious era in our husband
ry. All beets abound in saccharine matter,
but the white Siesan is dcnominated the
sugar beet, on account Of its diminitive, or
medium size-it having been ascertaned,
that the Juices Of the smaller roots, are
more concentrated, or abound more in SUI
gar, than tie juices OF the larger varieties.

Education an Wisconsin,. We are clad
TO learn that the people of Wisconsin Ter
rltory, are about TO circulate petitions to
the Legislature for the establishment Of p
Superlntendency of Public Instruction.
Had such measure prevailed in Ohio, at
an earlier period of existence as a state,
we should not now have 10 lament over mo-
bic endowments wasted, and the maen6-
cent gratuity of the General Government
wrcsied from its legitimate purpose, and in
the hands Of the rapacious and the specu-
Iatng. BY the establishment, three or
four years since, of a Superintendent of
Common Schools, our Legislature did
something TO atone for past folly and gross
neglect; but the measure was resorted 70
at too late day, to rescue large portion
of the school lands from the hands Of those
who,~by holding them under the right thew
have TO them, are robbing the immortal
mind OF the precious means Of its cuIture
and development. We hope the people Of
Wisconsin will manage this matter better
than we have done; and if they want ar
gumen;s OF potency to present to their le-
glslators, let them send and &c, the history
OF the use which Ohio has made Of her
school lands, and of the manner in which
our colleges have husbanded their endow
ments, and lay it before them. 1t forms
melancholy chapter, which may be read
with advantage by all the young States and
new Territories west of u.s.
Among its means of instruction, in ad-
dtion TO the sixteenth section of each town
ship as provided By the organic law Of the
Northwest Territory, Wisconsin has gra-
tuity from the General Government Of two
entire townships of land, for the establish
ment and support of State University 1t
has also county tax for educational pur-
poses, which will in few years yield
handsome sum. These means are con-
sidered, by those who have examined the
matter, sufficient for the support of a Uni
versity with branch in each county Of the
Territory, and a common school in every
neighborhood of half dozen inhabitants
for nearly or quite six months in q year.
These, however, have thus far been so
neglected, that, as stated in late Wiscon-
sin paper, there has been yet nothing like
q system Of public instruction established

We have found by experience, that if
cows are supplied with as much salt as they
will eat, there is no unpleasant taste i'm
parted to their milk by their being fed on
cabbagcs, or turnips. Cattle should have
all the salt they wish for, and this course
would save the reduction Of the milk by

A SEASONABLE PICTURE-BY MISS sEDGwIcK.
1t has been customary, IN some Of our
cities and towns, for young ladies 10 walk
in thin shoes and stockings in md-winter.
A healthy blooming young girl thus dress
ed, in violation of Heavens laws, pays the
penalty; checked circulation, cold, fevel
and death. "What a sad Providencel''
exclaimed her friends. Was it Providence
or her own folly? A beautiful young bride
goes night after night, to parties, in honor
of her marriage. She has q slight sore
throat, perhaps, and the weather is incle-
ment; but she must wear her neck and
arms bare, for whoever say q bride in a
close evening dress? She is seized with
inflammation of the lungs, and dies before
her bridal days are over. "What Pro-
vidence" eXclaims the world; "cut off in
the midst of happiness and hope" Alas
did she not cut the thread of life herself?
A girl IN the country exposed to our
changetul climate, gets new bonnet in
stead CT a flannel garment. Rheumatism,
is the consequence. Should the girl sit
down TRANQUILITY with the idea that Provi-
dence has sent the rheumatism upon her.
or should she charge il to her vanity and
avoid the folly in future? Look my young
friends, at the mass of diseases that are in
CURED by intemperance, indiscreet dress
ing, tight lacing, &c, and all is quietly
imputed to Providence. Is there no mpi-
ETY., as well as ignorance in this? Were
the physical laws strictly observed from
generation to generation, there would be
an end TO frightful diseases that cut short
life, and of the long maladies that make
life torment or trial. 1t is the opinion
of those who best understand the physical
system, that this wonderful machine, the
body-this "goodIy temPle''-would gra-
dually decay. and man would die, as few
nov die, as if falling 10 sleep.
