THE BANK PARTY.

The constant cry of the Tory Press is, that the Whig party is and always has been the bank party 1; and so long have they harped upon this theme, that many have really come to think that lie we'll stuck to is as good as the truth. Take up any of the tory papers, and you will be sure to find this single idea to be the great point labored. The whigs are nothing but old federalists with new name-they are, and always have been, the note shavers, speculators, and rag barons of tho community, whose delight and interest it always was 10 oppress and grind the poor :; while the democrats are, and always have been, opposed to a National Bank, and 10 q connection of the government with any bank, and the dear friends of the people. Now, that our readers may see that there is not a syllable of truth in any of these assertions of the tory papers wo subjoin some of the yeas and nays in relation To the establishment of the late National Bank
 | In the Senate IS Republicans and Fede- ralists voted for the Bank, and 5 Republi- cans and Federalists against it.
 In the House, 67 Republicans and 13 Fede- ralists for the Bank, and 20 Republicans and 42 Federalists against it.
 Among those then styled Republicans, who voted for the Bank. are the names of James Barbour of Va. Wm. T. Barry of Ky. J. B. Varnum of Mass, J. c. Calhoun of $. C., A. Cuthbert of Geo, J. Forsyth of Geo., s. D. Ingham of Pa., Albion K. Paris of Me. While on the other hand, you find Christo. pier Gore, Jeremiah Mason, Rufus King, R. II. Goldsborough. Timothy Pickering, John Randolph, and others, in the negative.
 Any one who will take the trouble to exa mine the list, will sec the utter disregard ir the tory papers on this subject. There were but l7 Federalists in both Houses who voted for the bank, while there were 49 who voted against it. or the Republicans in botf Houses, 65 voted for the bank, and but 34 against it. A party that is obliged to make daily use of such unblushing falsehoods to sustain itself, must be in languishing con. diton truly.-Plymouth Memorial cf l63o.

EXPERIMENTS IN FARMIN

EXPERIMENTS IN FARMING.
 Our readers must not be alarmed if we ad. wise every farmer who has any mind, to ex- ercise that mind in making improvements in his modes of ofcultiyation. Let each practical cultivator vary his modes occasionally, and on small scale if he chooses, and let him in- form the public of his success or of his fail ure, according to the facts. In this way we can acquire an abundance of information from each other, which will be more useful than all the theoretical systems advocated by philosophers whose farming is principally on white sheet-whose furrows are crook ed and black on white soil.
 The present low prices of produce should not discourage US, but should serve us a stimulus 10 endeavor 10 produce at less ex- pense. It must be borne in mind that we now subvert our green.sward with one halt the expense which was formerly required, and by means of our present system of rota- tion of crops, imperfect as it is, we obtain s or 10 times as much English hay us we did on the same farms fifty years ago-and yet hay bears a price nearly as high, on the average, as it then did. Produce will gene- rally bear remunerating prices to all who cultivate with skill. If distant cultivators can undersell us in our own markets in arli. cles peculiarly adapted to their soil and stu- ation, we must of necessity shift in some de- gree our course of husbandry-we must turn our attention to the production of those ari- cles which cannot so we'll be transported 10 distance.
 At this season our best farmers are prepa. ring to raise root crops for their stock. Every farmer who ever milked COW knows inc importance of having roots of some kind to give her in the fall and winter season. Some prefer the potatoe-some the turnip-o.hers the various species of beet and carrot and parsnip. In determining which are most I profitable, a farmer will consider the quality of his lands, and his facilities for production He may have rough fields which he wishes 10 subdue by planting, and if his soil is q heavy loam he may raise potatoes to as good ] advantage as any root. In n plain old field
